Chapter 13 (I) Change of face

When Sergei talked about what happened back then, when he said that he saw the strange man and woman, and the pair of men and women also said their names, Tang Shuxing and the other three people were surprised and said: "Night fire? Enya? ”

These two names are too familiar to them, this is actually the strongest team in the last Gu Hunting Ground Competition, but when it was clear that they could win in the end, they chose to surrender, but they used the corpse as a stand-in, leaving behind a mystery that they thought would never be solved at the time.

Tang Shuxing slowly sat down and said to himself: "In other words, Yehuo and Enya are ancient humans, real ancient humans, and there are still survivors. ”

Sergei looked at them: "What ancient humans are you also looking for?" Who sent you? ”

Ji Kefeng sat on one side, entered the approximate coordinates that Sergei said into the locator, determined the location, and then whispered to Gu Huaiyi: "Sergei told everything he knows, what should I do next?" It's also a burden for us to take him with us, and there is no need to kill people, so it's better to let him go, right? ”

Gu Huaiyi was silent, just looking at Tang Shuxing.

Tang Shuxing sat there, recalling what had happened in the Gu Hunting Ground Competition, and in retrospect, even if his master's team was helpless in the face of Nightfire and Enya, the strength of those two ancient humans completely surpassed the strength of all the participating teams at that time, but where did they go in the end? Why look for a stand-in? Is it just because you don't want to reveal your identity?

"Second sentence, Sergei is useless, what do you think should be done?" Ji Kefeng approached Tang Shuxing and asked.

"It works!" Tang Shuxing nodded, "It's still useful, there is a problem in this." ”

"You say Sergei lied?" Ji Kefeng was stunned.

Tang Shuxing raised his eyes and looked at him: "No, it's not that he didn't explain what happened back then, but that he has a problem." ”

"Why?" Ji Kefeng asked, Gu Huaiyi also turned his head to look at him, and Sergei was also staring at them not far away, looking at this with a puzzled face. Looking at that again, he didn't understand Chinese at all.

Tang Shuxing stared at Sergei and said: "Before recalling what happened back then, Sergei said a word, he said that he never felt the danger coming. But judging from today's situation, I guess that both the CIA and the Russian intelligence services have been monitoring him for so many years, and Sergei is a veteran spy, and judging from his account of what happened back then, he is very cautious and very alert to danger, and it is impossible not to find out that someone is spying on him. ”

As he spoke, Tang Shuxing got up again: "Besides, a few days ago, I was at Sergei's house in Karachi. When that kind of thing happened, Sergei didn't even prepare a weapon, and he was completely in a state of being caught, which is also unreasonable, and he is a veteran spy. Have you forgotten the information the envoy gave us? It says that Sergei knows many languages, including Chinese, and now he doesn't understand what we're talking about. ”

Ji Kefeng looked at Sergei: "You mean, this Sergei is not what we are looking for?" And fake, just the real Sergey told him what happened back then? ”

"Nope! It's not that simple. Tang Shuxing looked at Sergei and analyzed, "When he told it before. At first, it wasn't his own business, but Yuri, do you remember your own things from someone else's point of view? No, so, he's definitely not Sergey, maybe Yuri. ”

"Huh?" Ji Kefeng was surprised. "He's Yuri?"

When Ji Kefeng said the name "Yuri", he subconsciously looked at the so-called Sergei, who no longer understood Chinese, but could understand that sound, and was suddenly shocked. Avoiding Ji Kefeng's gaze again.

Gu Huaiyi stepped forward at this time, took out the photos and compared them again, but did not find anything wrong.

Gu Huaiyi turned his head to look at Tang Shuxing and said, "You mean, Yuri has plastic surgery to look like Sergei?" ”

"Yes." Tang Shuxing nodded, "You must know that the cosmetic surgery can be traced back to the source, at least until the First World War, there was already a scale during World War II, and it was very popular during the Cold War, but the recovery time was longer than now, and the fatality rate was higher, I am now almost certain that the Sergei in front of us is actually Yuri, so, Yuri is not dead, Sergei is not dead, they are all alive, they do this shows that the things of the year did not end in the Aral Sea, there must be a follow-up." ”

Gu Huaiyi grabbed "Sergei's" beard and said with a smile: "Yuri, don't pretend, we have already seen through it, if you pretend again, we will really do it, you are not Sergei, you can't withstand our interrogation." ”

At this time, "Sergei's" face changed greatly, and this change was enough to show that Tang Shuxing's speculation was correct.

"Dr. Yuri, we're not trying to hurt you, we're just trying to find out what happened next, and I promise to let you go as long as you take us to find the real Sergei." Tang Shuxing squatted down and said, after Gu Huaiyi finished translating, "Sergei" finally looked at Tang Shuxing, and then nodded.

"Sergey" smiled bitterly: "Yes, I'm Yuri, you are very powerful, no one has found out for so many years, but you have found out." ”

After Gu Huaiyi finished translating, Tang Shuxing said with a smile: "If you are really Sergei, even if my guess is correct, you can continue to pretend, because the real Sergei has been trained in this area, and he will not be threatened to tell the truth in a few words, and I once mistakenly analyzed that it was Sergei who was hiding in Pakistan, and now that I think about it, Sergei must also know that others will speculate like this, so I simply calculated it and swapped my face with you, if I guessed correctly, the one in Ukoran is the Sergei who pretends to be you, It's just that he faked his death in your name, knowing that in Chernobyl, dying of cancer will not be suspected by anyone. ”

"yes, we changed faces." Yuri hung his head and said, "After we left the Aral Sea, Sergei led me back to Ukraine, where he still had some connections, even if some people thought we were not dead, they didn't think we would go back, he was very smart, we stayed in Ukraine for three months, and then left for Ukolan, where Sergei found a black market doctor, and with his help, we changed our faces, for which we stayed in Ukoran for a year and a half, and it took a year and a half to fully recover. ”

A year and a half later, the Cold War is over, the hunt they feared is gone, the reorganization of the government, the renewal of the world order, and the lack of time for others to care about these two traitors, who are considered to have died long ago in the Aral Sea. At this time, Sergei and Yuri began to learn from each other, Sergei taught Yuri some skills that he was familiar with, and Yuri taught Sergei some knowledge about environmental science, but unfortunately, although Sergei learned some environmental science, Yuri was not familiar with the skills of spies, at most he knew how to use a gun.

After all, Hilgai is a veteran spy, although he has only learned the surface, but he knows how to integrate and how to make up stories, he sent it to Pakistan for Yuri's good, and took out the funds he secretly saved, helped Yuri in his business, and became one of the rich people in the local area, but he turned around and returned to Ukolan.

It didn't take long for the news of Sergei's death came from Ukoran, of course, the news came that "Yuri died of cancer", Yuri knew at the time that Sergei must have faked his death, maybe this meant that they would be safe from now on, so he began to start his business with peace of mind and no longer think about the past.

"That is, you don't know where exactly Sergei is now?" Tang Shu asked.

Yuri nodded slowly, and Tang Shuxing asked again, "Then where was the last place where Sergei appeared?" ”

"Next to a village in Chernobyl, where I got him an institute to disguise his identity, and he also married and had children, and lived there as me, and under my old name, and he didn't seem to worry about anyone coming to him." Yuri stared at the ground, "But it's also strange that no one has really come to us for so many years, I don't know why." ”

"Okay, we have to go, don't make any stops, go straight to Chernobyl." Tang Shuxing said that he got up to leave, but Gu Huaiyi and Ji Kefeng stopped in place, Tang Shuxing turned to look at them, "You guys are not leaving?" ”

Gu Huaiyi glanced at Ji Kefeng, and then said: "Second sentence, our purpose is to go to the Aral Sea, not Ukelan, now whether Sergei lives or dies has little to do with us, the coordinates have been obtained, and promised Zhan Tianya to get rid of the werewolf clan The purpose is you, not us, we will choose to go to the Aral Sea." ”

Tang Shuxing was slightly stunned, and asked rhetorically: "In other words, you decided to part ways with me?" ”

"Yes." Ji Kefeng nodded.

Tang Shuxing looked at Yuri and said, "What if he lies?" What if the coordinates are wrong? ”

"So, we're going to take Yuri on the road." Gu Huaiyi said lightly, "You also said that Sergei faked his death, so you go to Ukoran alone, find Sergei, complete your assassination mission, and then you can come to the Aral Sea to make peace with us, anyway, the equipment provided by the secret envoy this time is satellite communication, even if it is 108,000 miles away, we can still keep in touch, right?" ”

Ji Kefeng also pointed to the equipment carried by Tang Shuxing and said: "There is a positioning system, money, and equipment, and with your ability, it will not be a problem to cross Azerbaijan." ”

Tang Shuxing smiled: "You forced me? I don't know the local language, and it's a long way from here to Chernobyl, if I can't walk all my life, I don't know the language, how can I get in a car? ”

"That's your problem." Gu Huaiyi stepped forward to pick up Yuri and walked towards the east, "We will cross the Caspian Sea, from the canal to the Aral Sea, you can also choose to come with us." ”

"Ha-" Tang Shuxing laughed dryly, turned around and headed towards Azerbaijan territory, "Excuse me!" The ways are different, let's go our separate ways! ”

Tang Shuxing went farther and farther, Ji Kefeng looked at Gu Huaiyi and said, "It's useless, he just has that temper." ”

Gu Huaiyi just smiled lightly: "You also heard it, parting ways, let's go ours." ”

Ji Kefeng watched Tang Shuxing's back disappear into the mountain road in the distance, and then followed Gu Huaiyi and Yuri to leave.
