On the last day before the New Year, St. Petersburg, the pearl of the Baltic Sea, the whole city is immersed in a festive atmosphere. Han Jiang walked alone in this strange city, strange streets, strange environments, strange people, everything was strange to him.

As soon as he arrived in St. Petersburg, Han Jiang learned about the severe cold of Russia, although he had also gone deep into the Anima Qing Snow Mountain, but it was a prepared action, and the cold of the Russian winter far exceeded Han Jiang's expectations. He walked to the corner of Nevsky Avenue, a cold wind mixed with snowflakes hit him, Han Jiang didn't feel a shudder, he lifted the collar of his coat that had been erected and lifted it up again, but this still couldn't stop the cold wind.

The sky has gradually darkened, Han Jiang looked up at the street sign at the corner of the street, fortunately, he came to St. Petersburg to study Russian for a week, he spent a long time, finally understood this street sign, the direction of the arrow on the street sign to the east, is the Winter Palace, just now he has already appreciated the Winter Palace standing in the wind and snow, at this time, the place he is going should be to the north - Suvorov Street.

Han Jiang turned to Suvorov Avenue and walked for a short time, it was another intersection, Han Jiang checked the street signs and maps, turned into a small road, and walked for another quarter of an hour, on both sides of the road, several apartment buildings appeared, Han Jiang showed a smile on the corner of his mouth, he arrived at the place, this is the place he is looking for......

In the twilight, Yelena came out of the hospital and got into her Fiat car, she had just visited Makarov, who was still lying on the hospital bed, Makarov's body had basically recovered after this period of recuperation, but the doctors still did not allow him to be discharged, Yelena would visit him almost every day and bring Makarov some of his favorite veal and mushroom soup.

Although the wind was biting cold on the street, and there were snowflakes, the people celebrating the New Year still blocked the streets, Yelena was in a hurry to rush back to her residence, she still had a lot of things to do, thinking of this, Yelena snorted softly, New Year! Festival! It was too far away for her, she had had little feeling for them since she was a child, and now her profession had left her with little time to enjoy them.

Yelena honked her horn hard, but the car blocked in front of her still didn't move, so she had to continue to wait, although Yelena had first-class driving skills, but she couldn't use it at this time. Eventually, the car in front of her began to move slowly, and Yelena's little "Fiat" followed suit.

Yelena looked at her watch, it was half past eight, almost an hour later than usual before she returned to her accommodation, she parked the car, picked up the lunch box for Makarov, jumped out of the car, and walked into the dark corridor.

With Yelena's light steps, the voice-activated lights on every floor lit up, the first, second, and third floors...... Hey? Why aren't the voice-activated lights on the fourth floor? Last night was fine, Yelena suddenly became alert, she stopped, quietly observed everything in the dark, there should be no one in the corridor, but Yelena still smelled something different from usual!

Yelena didn't take out her mobile phone to illuminate, but in the darkness, leaning against the wall, she crept slowly towards the door, and came to the door, and her professional sensitivity made Yelena conclude that someone must have been here when she was not there, and even entered the house!

Maybe...... Maybe the man is in his room right now! Yelena tried her best not to let the key collide with the sound, slowly inserted the key into the lock hole, she gently put down the insulated lunch box in her hand, held the key with one hand, and habitually touched the back of her waist with the other hand, because that was where she usually put her gun, but when she put her hand in, she remembered that she had no gun!

2

Yelena had to pick up the lunch box again, thinking that it was a weapon of self-defense. Ready, Yelena turned the key suddenly, and then pushed, the door opened, the room was dark, Yelena put down the lunch box she was holding up, and went to find the light switch, the light was on, and the living room was bright, but Yelena suddenly found that something was wrong! When I was leaving, the curtains were obviously opened, and now, the thick curtains are completely closed! No! Not only that, but she noticed that there was a person sitting on the sofa with her back to her, and when the person heard the movement, he turned around and squeezed out a smile at Yelena, and said calmly in Russian: "I finally waited for you back!" ”

"Ahh How are you? Han! You...... Scares me! Only then did Yelena see clearly that the person sitting on the sofa was Han Jiang.

"You...... You should have ...... Expect...... I'll come...... Looking for you! Han Jiang said to Yelena in broken Russian.

"Why?"

"Because...... Because...... You guys...... Took us...... Stuff! ”

Han Jiang's broken Russian amused Yelena at once, Yelena smiled bitterly, closed the door, and said in Chinese: "Yes!" I should have expected you to come to me. For that jade interstitial, the account between us hasn't been settled yet! ”

"That's right! The grievances between us must be settled. Han Jiang resumed speaking in Chinese, and suddenly felt much more relaxed.

"What's the end?" Yelena also sat on the sofa, staring at Han Jiang and asked.

"I also saved your life in Animaqing Snow Mountain, why do you want to repay your kindness, hehe!" Han Jiang pretended to be a hippie smile in front of Yelena.

"Hmmm! Yes, you saved my life! Yelena nodded, "You want me to give you back that jade insert?" What about the jade interstitial screen that originally belonged to the Winter Palace? ”

"It's easy to do! Let's work together, and I'm here to talk to you about cooperation. ”

Han Jiang just cut to the topic, but Yelena smiled bitterly: "Cooperation? Okay, I don't care who you're working with, you tell me first, how did you get in? ”

"How did you get in? You're not in the Kremlin, so why can't I get in? Don't forget what I do! Han Jiang said with a smile.

"How did you know I lived here?" Yelena pressed forward step by step.

"Don't underestimate my intelligence-gathering ability, don't underestimate my ability to act, it's been two days since I came to Petersburg, and if you want to find a big living person, you can still do it!" Han Jiang still had a smile on his face.

After hearing this, Yelena spread out her hands, nodded, and asked Han Jiang again: "Okay!" Even if you are very powerful, but without the permission of the master, enter the master's room, is this your consistent style? ”

Hearing Yelena's question, Han Jiang put away his smile, approached Yelena, lowered his voice, and whispered: "Please forgive me for being presumptuous, because I dare not guarantee that there are no of your people outside, and more importantly, whether there are any of our enemies, so I have to break into your boudoir just in case, if there is any presumptuousness, please forgive Miss Yelena!" ”

"Our enemy? You mean the men in black, they also came to Petersburg? Yelena suddenly became nervous again.

"It's entirely possible, they didn't succeed in the black-headed stone room, and they will never give up!"

"Don't scare me, I've always been safe here, and I've never noticed any suspicious people around here, except for today, of course!" Yelena was still angry.

"I'm not scaring you, time is pressing, we really need to cooperate and deal with the common danger together!"

3

Han Jiang continued to talk about his thoughts, but Yelena stood up and smiled bitterly at Han Jiang: "Forget it, Han, don't talk to me about any cooperation, what jade interstitial secrets, I have been suspended, and the gun has been handed in, otherwise, when I entered the door just now, I would definitely shoot you with a gun, and if I didn't do it, I would shoot at you!" ”

"What? You were suspended? What's going on? Han Jiang also stood up.

"What's the fuss about, this time I didn't complete the mission, I was captured by the gang again, my father was also seriously injured, I am responsible for all this, so, I was suspended." With that, Yelena walked into the kitchen.

Han Jiang also followed up with the kitchen, and just as he wanted to speak, Yelena asked first, "Have you eaten?" I haven't eaten dinner yet, I'm hungry! ”

Han Jiang smiled a little embarrassedly, and replied: "I didn't eat either, I hid here for a few hours, I thought you would be back at four or five o'clock, but I didn't expect you to come back at half past eight!" ”

"I went to the hospital to see my father, he was very injured last time!"

"Oh! What is wrong with your father? He fell into the valley with Tang Feng, and later, how was he rescued by you? And after you were rescued, why did you disappear again? Han Jiang asked a series of questions.

"You have so many questions! Well, I'll cook first, and let's talk while we eat. Yelena said and opened the lunch box and said to Han Jiang: "This is the veal and mushroom soup I made, which was originally brought to my father to eat, but he ate it in the hospital today, so he drank two mouthfuls of soup, if you don't mind, let's eat this!" ”

Han Jiang was already hungry, as long as he could eat it, besides, this veal and mushroom soup looked pretty good, and sure enough, as soon as Yelena heated the soup, the fragrance immediately spread in the room.

After a while, Yelena made a simple, but enough to fill the stomach for a Russian-style dinner, Han Jiang ate black tea, nibbled on bread, drank thick soup, chewed red sausages, and quickly became half-full, and then he asked Yelena again: "You haven't answered my question just now?" ”

Yelena looked at Han Jiang's eating appearance and said with a smile: "This time you know the retribution for trespassing into a private house, I have to come back a little later, you still have to starve!" ”

"If you don't come back, I'll go through the boxes and cabinets here, and I'll have enough food and clothing." Han Jiang also smiled.

"Why are you so rude to me now? You're not afraid that I'll have someone arrest you, and I'll let you taste our prison here!" ”

"Hehe, because I believe in you and your father, that's why I came to you tonight." The smile on Han Jiang's face gradually disappeared.

Yelena nodded, "Okay, just say this to you, and I'll tell you everything I know." Where do you want to hear it from? ”

"From the beginning, from the very beginning when you were involved in this matter!" Han Jiang said.

"In the beginning, I had to take a rare vacation, but because of the case, I was forced to end it early and rush to St. Petersburg. On the surface, this is just a case of theft of art, but because of the particularity of this artwork, it was taken over by our Federal Security Service, but this was not enough for me to end my vacation early and rush over, and the most important thing is that this jade insert involved the Sino-Soviet scientific expedition about half a century ago, I think you should also grasp this situation. ”

Han Jiang nodded, "Yes, we know about the expedition, but we don't know why the expedition team disappeared in the end?" ”

Yelena continued: "After the death of the expedition, the KGB ordered the jade insert to be sealed, and for half a century, almost no one knew about its existence. Therefore, when it reappeared, the headquarters attached great importance to it and sent me to take charge of this case, which led to our subsequent trip to China! ”

"So, you're in full charge of this?"

"Before I came back from China, it was now, not only is it not, but I have been suspended!"

"I would like to take the liberty of asking, what is your purpose? Is it just to recover the jade insert that was stolen from the Winter Palace? Or is it for another purpose? Han Jiang asked the question that had always been in his heart.

4

Yelena was stunned for a moment when she heard Han Jiang's question, then calmed down and thought about it before answering Han Jiang and said: "Your question just now reminded me that I hadn't seriously thought about this issue before, and I can tell you clearly that the task I received was only to recover the jade insert that was stolen from the Winter Palace, and I had no other ideas." As for whether the headquarters has other ideas, I don't know, especially during this time, I have not been exposed to this matter at all, and I can't judge the current intentions of the headquarters. ”

"Oh! That's right. So who's in charge of this now? ”

"Ilyugin! Colonel Andrei Mikhailovich Ilyugin, who is now in charge for the time being. ”

"Ilyugin?" Han Jiang secretly calculated in his heart, it seems that this Ilyugin is the person he is going to find.

"Hmmm! This Ilyugin used to be my father's student, but he was not the same as us, and by the way, he also had a nickname, 'Vasika'. ”

Han Jiang wrote down Yelena's introduction one by one, and Yelena continued: "Anyway, please believe me, I received the task of only recovering the stolen jade insert screen of the Winter Palace, so later we went to China, met you, and so many things happened, and I have to thank you for saving me in the end, I remember that you seemed to have been shot at that time, how is it, are you healed?" ”

"It's all right, it's no big deal!" After Han Jiang finished speaking, he asked Yelena again: "What about later?" After you were saved, I remember you going after Stephen, and then, I passed out and didn't remember anything. ”

"Later, I went to chase Stephen and the blonde woman, and I could see that they were the heads of the group, but the terrain there was too complicated, I didn't know anything about the situation there, and I was locked up by them for so many days, and my body hadn't recovered, so after chasing for about a few kilometers, I was tired, hungry, and physically exhausted, and those two people were also missing, maybe they were hiding somewhere."

"And where did you go after that? Why didn't our people find you? Han Jiang asked with concern.

"Later, I wanted to go back to you the way I came, but I couldn't walk, I wanted to rest for a while, and then go to you, and at this time, our people found me."

"Your people?"

"Hmmm! After I was captured, our communication with the headquarters was completely severed, and the headquarters sent another group of men to look for us, four men in all, disguised as tourists, led by Major Ivanov......"

"Major Ivanov?" Han Jiang made a note of the name.

"Valentin Sergelovich Ivanov, in my opinion, he is a competent agent." Yelena snorted softly when she said this.

"Quite a competent agent? How are you better? Han Jiang asked with a smile.

"Than me? If you've worked with him, you'll know. Yelena smiled slyly.

"But I still haven't figured it out, how can your people find you so quickly and so accurately?"

"It's very simple, we have our solution, and of course there is some element of luck."

"Your solution?" Han Jiang was puzzled.

"You've probably heard of satellite tracking and positioning systems, but of course this thing often fails." Yelena explained.

"I see!" Only then did Han Jiang understand that it turned out that they were using this thing. At this time, he could fully confirm his previous judgment, so he continued: "Later, you were rescued by your people, if I guessed correctly, your people were divided into two groups, and the other group saved your father, and took the jade insert in Tang Feng's bag, you thought you were done, but when you returned to Petersburg, you found that the jade insert you brought back was not the one stolen from the Winter Palace!" ”

Yelena nodded and said, "Yes, you are right, my father has seen the second jade insert you found in the Blackhead Stone Chamber, he looked at the jade insert that Ivanlov brought back, and concluded that it is the new ...... you discovered."

"So, instead of returning that jade interstitial to the Winter Palace, you locked it in your FSB safe." Han Jiang interrupted Yelena and said.

5

Yelena heard Han Jiang say where the jade insert was stored, her heart tightened suddenly, and then she smiled: "It seems that you came prepared!" I admire your abilities more and more, I thought you had brute strength, but you resembled our Major Ivanov. ”

"So I have this image in your mind." Han Jiang smiled bitterly.

"However, since you saved me, I have changed my opinion of you, you are all right, you are a good agent, but the foreign language is a little worse." Yelena teased Han Jiangdao.

"Foreign language?" Han Jiang sighed and said: "I'm different from you, you must be a high-achieving student trained by the KGB school, I was born as a soldier, just a rough person, but I also learned English, even if I did this, I didn't expect that one day, I would go abroad to perform tasks." ”

"Oh! It turns out that you can speak English, so we can communicate in English in the future! Yelena continued to tease Han Jiang.

Han Jiang couldn't help blushing when he thought of the English he hadn't used for many days, and said embarrassedly: "What kind of English do you use!" You don't speak Chinese very well, let's communicate like this! ”

Han Jiang's embarrassing appearance made Yelena laugh out loud, and Han Jiang also stupidly laughed with Yelena twice, Yelena stopped laughing and said, "However, the young man who was with you is quite educated." ”

"Yes! His name is Tang Feng, he is a university teacher, he has a lot of knowledge, and he knows several foreign languages, otherwise I wouldn't have picked him to cooperate with me. ”

Hearing Han Jiang's words, Yelena laughed louder, "Perfect match? You're funny! You two big men are a perfect match, hehe, I see that you haven't learned Chinese well. ”

Han Jiang also felt that the words he used just now were inappropriate, but he didn't know what to say at this time, so he had to smirk twice with Yelena. After Yelena finished laughing, Han Jiang asked Yelena: "I've been ...... I've always had a question for you, but I don't know if I should say it or not? ”

"Just ask if there's anything!" Yelena was surprised when she saw Han Jiang's stumbling appearance.

"I've always wanted to ask you, you...... Are you and your father really biological father and daughter? After Han Jiang asked this sentence, he felt that he had used the wrong words again.

As soon as Yelena heard Han Jiang ask this question, she immediately put away the smile on her face, Han Jiang looked at Yelena's beautiful face, at this moment, there was no trace of smile, only a faint sadness, Yelena avoided Han Jiang's eyes, turned her head, and then said slowly: "Maybe you have seen that we are not really father and daughter, just for this mission, we are called father and daughter." Makarov used to be my teacher, and when he was in school, he seemed to be ostracized and had a bad time, but he was always very kind to us, like a loving father, so he left a deep impression on me, and this trip to China, we fought side by side, and I completely regarded him as my own father. ”

"I heard that Lao Ma's son was killed?" Han Jiang asked.

"Yes, it was for the jade insert that was stolen from the Winter Palace, and the case has not been solved so far, so Victor's death made my father heartbroken. He has been retired for many years, and this time he is willing to go out again for the sake of his father, largely for his son. ”

"Lao Ma has no other relatives?"

"No more. Victor is his only relative in this world. ”

"What about you? What about your loved ones? Han Jiang asked.

Yelena was silent for a long time, and did not answer Han Jiang's question, the room was suddenly terrifyingly quiet, and Han Jiang suddenly heard a sobbing sound, is it ...... It was Yelena, when Yelena turned her head, Han Jiang saw two lines of tears on Yelena's cheeks, this was the first time he saw Yelena crying in front of him, in Han Jiang's impression, Yelena has always been a strong woman who never gives up and can't cry, at this time, how did she cry like a girl, Han Jiang was at a loss for a while, after a while, Yelena gradually stopped crying, and Han Jiang tried to ask softly: "You...... What happened to you? ”

Yelena looked at Han Jiang and said, "Don't you know that in the past, the KGB selected agents and went to the two places most often?" ”

"Two of the most frequented places?" Han Jiang didn't understand what it meant.

"One is the army, because there is iron discipline there; The other is an orphanage, because the children there are completely malleable. ”

"So, you ...... Are you an orphan? Only then did Han Jiang understand.

Yelena nodded slightly.

"I see, an unfortunate child!" Han Jiang's heart suddenly rose with great pity.

6

Han Jiang suddenly had a strange thought in his mind, he wanted to protect her, Yelena, he hoped that he could become her relative and protect her!

But just when Han Jiang was thinking nonsense, Yelena suddenly stood up and asked Han Jiang, "Have you eaten well?" ”

Han Jiangmu nodded, so Yelena quickly packed up the plates, dishes, knives and forks, and while cleaning up, Yelena asked Han Jiang, who was still thinking nonsense: "Now that you already know where to store the jade insertion, what are you going to do next?" Whether to steal it out, or to bring your men and snatch the jade interstitial screen, if you want to choose the latter, then I warn you, that is a big risk. ”

Yelena said this, Han Jiang remembered the task of his trip, and asked rhetorically: "I found that in your brain, there are only fights and kills, I don't understand why you think so?" ”

Yelena sneered and said: "You said that you are not far away, you came here, the purpose is very clear, and the goal has been determined, if you don't do this, what else do you want to do?" ”

"As I said earlier, I want to cooperate with you, because our opponent is a very powerful mysterious organization, and our cooperation is the best way out. So I'd like to visit your person in charge of this. ”

"Colonel Ilyugin?" Yelena snorted softly.

"Yes, it would have been...... If you're in charge of this, that's fine, maybe we'll be able to talk about it tonight. ”

"Hah!" Yelena smiled: "Even if it's me, I may not be able to negotiate, don't think that now that I have a good impression of you, I can take advantage of my good impression of you." ”

Han Jiang's face was red and white for a while by Yelena's words, Yelena ignored Han Jiang's feelings and continued: "I can imagine what he will say when you go to Iryukin, he will ask you 'What can we get?'" He's a master who doesn't see a rabbit and doesn't scatter an eagle! ”

"What do you get? You can get the truth about the mysterious disappearance of the expedition team half a century ago and the current series of events, and of course, after the matter is over, we can also give that jade interstitial screen to the Hermitage! ”

"Gift? That treasure was originally the Hermitage's. ”

"Nope! It would have belonged to China! ”

"But it came to Russia a hundred years ago."

"That doesn't change its original nationality, hehe!" Han Jiang argued.

"Okay, Han, I'm not going to fight with you! Your so-called 'cooperation', to put it bluntly, is just to let us hand over the jade interstitial screen to you first, no matter what the reason, this is very difficult to do. Actually, this matter has nothing to do with me now, I stand in the position of a friend, for your consideration, I advise you not to go to Iryukin, because I know him too well, he will not agree to your request, and as long as you go to him, it means that you have lost your freedom of movement here, and he will send eight big men to 'protect' you until you can't bear it anymore and return home by yourself. Yelena earnestly persuaded.

Han Jiang nodded: "I understand, but I still have to give it a try, we have an old Chinese saying - 'salute first and then soldier'!" ”

"Humph! Salute before soldiers? I'm afraid people won't take you this love, if you steal it, with your skills, you have a few chances of winning! Yelena affirmed.

Han Jiang laughed when he heard Yelena say this: "I found out how you are now standing on our side and giving us advice, which is a violation of the law for you!" ”

Han Jiang's reminder, Yelena realized it, yes! How did he unconsciously stand on Han Jiang's position, this ...... Is this out of disdain and anger at Ilyugin, or is it ...... Or is it for the sake of this Chinese man in front of you? Yelena was suddenly confused......

7

After a while, Yelena said slightly angrily: "I'm all for your good, if you don't appreciate it, forget it." ”

Seeing that Yelena was unhappy, Han Jiang hurriedly comforted: "No! No! Of course I have to take your affection, I know that you are for my good, you are very reasonable, with your method, if it succeeds, it will naturally be very good, but this will hurt the harmony of the two families, and your Colonel Iryukin will not give up; Moreover, it is not conducive to long-term cooperation, but only to the pleasure of our enemies. So, I decided to go to your Colonel Ilyugin, I thought it through, and I don't think he would do anything to us even if he didn't agree to cooperate with us, right? ”

"I advise you to think about it, this is not your territory." Yelena said.

"Don't worry, I'll add 10,000 to be careful." Han Jiang said firmly.

"Looks like I can't persuade you! Okay, then you go to Ilyugin, I see what you can get? When something happens, don't look for me to save you! Yelena said angrily.

"Okay, don't be angry, even if the worst happens, I have a way to get out. Tell me about your Colonel Ilyugin! As he spoke, Han Jiang hugged Yelena's shoulders and said to Yelena with a smile.

Yelena suddenly felt two currents of electricity all over her body, he looked at Han Jiang, and cursed himself in his heart, in front of this man, she actually betrayed her organization and oath so easily, although she knew that it was the right thing to do, and it would not cause any harm to her organization, but this was still unforgivable for an excellent agent and the education she had received since childhood! Yelena was caught in a deep conflict over this.

"Ilyugin, this person is insidious and cunning, I have never liked this person, he was also my father's student, but it is said that my father was forced to retire early, and he was framed by this guy, this time I was suspended, and he also said a lot of bad things about me to the above, you must be careful of this person......" Although Yelena cursed herself in her heart, she still introduced the situation of Ilyugin, Ivanlov and others to Han Jiang in 1510, and showed Han Jiang a photo, there were four people in the photo, Makarov and Yelena on the left. There were two men on the right, which Han Jiang had never seen.

Yelena pointed to the middle-aged man with a thin figure and a gloomy face in the photo, and said, "This is Colonel Ilyugin." Then, Yelena pointed to the sturdy man beside Iryukin and said, "This is Ivanlov, a muscular, brave and resourceful fellow, who is somewhat similar to you, hehe." ”

"What do you mean...... I'm also a brave guy? Han Jiang asked Yelena rhetorically.

Yelena looked at Han Jiang and laughed, "Isn't it a typical example of courage and resourcelessness when you took the initiative to go to Iryujin to die?" ”

"Maybe! I'll be sure to make you change your impression of me, though. Han Jiang said confidently. He quickly imprinted the appearance of these two men in his brain, but still proposed to Yelena to borrow this photo, Yelena hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded, and advised: "You can take the photo, but don't let Iryukin know that I gave you this photo!" Otherwise, I'll just ......"

Han Jiang smiled and replied, "Don't worry, even if I die, I will keep it a secret for you." ”

"I don't want you to die, you have to live well!" Yelena stared at Han Jiang and said word by word.

The two kept staring at each other like this, until Han Jiang opened his mouth and asked again, "Do you know the situation of the safe where that jade insert is stored?" ”

8

Yelena pouted and said helplessly: "I'm really hopeless, okay, I'll tell you everything I know." Of course, all I know is that a month ago, before I was suspended, the jade insert was stored in a basement of the FSB building, the strongest room in the entire building, and we commonly jokingly call it 'Peter's Hut'. ”

"Peter's Hut?" Han Jiang was puzzled.

"Well, I heard Ilyugin call them that, and I don't know which predecessor gave it this name, but you know that Petersburg has an attraction on the Neva River, which is the famous 'Peter I Hut', which is said to be the residence of Peter the Great when he founded Petersburg. It is said that the basement used to hold felons, and some felons eventually died there, so some seniors jokingly called the sturdy basement "Peter's Hut", deliberately satirizing those felons who were imprisoned here, enjoying the same treatment as a tsar. The basement was sturdy, windowless, and the walls were said to be three meters thick. ”

"Sure enough, it's very strong, are there still prisoners there?"

"It's been a long time since the prisoners were closed, now there is a safe there, which is specially designed to store important things, the safe is connected to the building's alarm system, if an outsider opens the safe, even if he opens the safe, the alarm will also sound, and the passage from the stairs to the basement will be monitored throughout the whole process, and the big iron door at the entrance of the passage is half a meter thick."

After listening to Yelena's introduction, Han Jiang gasped, this "Peter's Hut" is really impregnable, it is difficult to start, he joked to Yelena: "Look, you also said that there is hope for stealing directly, how can I steal such a solid and complicated place?" ”

"Humph! I've always thought you're very good at kung fu! Besides, I'm just saying that there is still hope for stealing, and if you go and talk to Ilyugin, it seems to me that there is no hope at all! ”

"Alright! Thank you for the advice and thank you for the delicious dinner, it's not too early and it's time for me to go! Han Jiang looked at his watch, it was almost ten o'clock.

"You're leaving? Where do you stay in Petersburg? It's so late, and it's snowing heavily......" Yelena stopped talking, but lowered her head in embarrassment.

"What, you want to keep me here for the night?" Han Jiang laughed.

"Humph! I didn't say I wanted to keep you, don't be sentimental! Yelena raised her head again, stared at Han Jiang and said.

"Don't worry, I'm sure I have somewhere to stay. If my place were targeted by your Colonel Ilyugin, I would have taken refuge in you, hehe! Han Jiang said with a smile.

"That's good! I'm waiting for you when you have nowhere to hide in Petersburg. With that, Yelena stepped forward and hugged Han Jiang and kissed Han Jiang lightly on the cheek.

Han Jiang's face turned red suddenly, he knew that this was just Russian etiquette, but it flattered him, a Chinese man! He stammered to Yelena: "I hope there won't be that day!" ”

"I'm sure you'll have that day, huh!" Yelena smiled confidently.

"Okay, you have a good night's sleep, if I break down with Iryukin, I really want to trouble you, and at that time, it will be impossible for you to sleep well!" After speaking, Han Jiang put on his coat, opened the door, and a cold wind poured into the house, Han Jiang and Yelena noticed that at some point, the window in the corridor was blown open by the strong wind, Han Jiang walked over, closed the window tightly, and then observed the movement in the corridor for a while, and saw that there was nothing abnormal, then he waved his hand to Yelena and disappeared into the dark corridor.

Yelena watched Han Jiang walk down the stairs outside the door in a daze, listening to his footsteps, until the sound was far away, Yelena returned to the room, she looked at this small apartment, outside was the New Year's celebration flowers, the apartment was warm like spring, Yelena's heart suddenly rose a feeling that she had never felt before, this is a feeling of home. Although, she knew that this was just her temporary residence.
