Chapter 17: Night Talk
Since the "guest" came, Pan Zi and I were embarrassed to continue lying down and wanted to put on shoes and go to the ground. But the Frost Molecules came up to us and waved at us, and that didn't mean anything.
All four of us sat on the bed, and the frost spikes took out the tobacco and cigarette paper, and rolled up the dry tobacco in front of us.
I see that his movements are very familiar, probably because the base is isolated from the outside world, these people always smoke dry tobacco and practice. He rolled one and handed it over, and it wasn't long before our brothers and sisters had a dry tobacco in their hands.
I'm not stupid, in this environment, we can't smoke cigarettes from outsiders. We're all looking at this cryophyll.
He also understood what was going on, smiled, rolled himself a dry tobacco, smoked it first, and then gestured to us with his eyes.
He's telling us that the smoke is fine. We have to doubt him anymore, but we are a little delicate, so we have to suck it all up.
This cryothrophyllum was very talkative, and he took the initiative to chat with us, and introduced him as Maiti.
We just want to deal with a few words, I think so in my heart, we don't take the initiative to answer, and we don't plan to keep him more, if he has something, just say it, save going around in circles.
Our non-cooperation quickly cooled down the atmosphere. Suddenly, no one spoke, they were all muffled and smoked, and Panzi was even more able to play, pouting, and spit out smoke rings.
It's just that the dry smoke is very strong, Pan Zi played like this, and he didn't get it right, and in the end, his eyes were confused, and he felt drunk.
When he finished his cigarette, he looked very serious, stared at us and said, "Tomorrow at midnight on time." ”
I was a little confused, I didn't understand what this meant, except for Pan Zi sitting sullenly, Lu Yufeng and I both looked at Maiti with puzzled expressions.
The three of us were very strange, looking at each other, Maiti took out an observational look, tasted the change in our expressions, and said a long tongue twister, what is a dumb man from the south, a horn pinned to his waist, a lama from the north, a rex in his hand, and so on.
I wanted to smile bitterly, and suddenly I felt this way, is Maiti mentally ill? Otherwise, why be incoherent.
Lu Yufeng frowned, but the two of us still didn't answer, and we hung it here again.
Not satisfied with the reaction of the two of us, Maiti shook his head and said, "What are you pretending to be in front of your own people?" Last month, the organization sent me to infiltrate the Frozen Rush base with another person, trying to dig up clues, but the other person's identity was revealed, and I am glad that I have been lurking until now, and you can see that it is the helper sent to me by the organization, am I right? ”
My first reaction after hearing this was that I wanted to be enthusiastic, after all, Maiti is our own people, we don't need to be xenophobic and indifferent, and the tongue twister he just said must be the connector code of the people inside the organization, although I don't understand, but Lu Yufeng must know, otherwise he wouldn't have frowned weirdly just now.
I wanted to say something to Maiti, but the words came to my lips, but Lu Yufeng answered first, he still looked puzzled, stared at Maiti and said, "Brother, what is the organization you are talking about?" We really don't know, and we just escaped from prison with Boss Zhao Han, and we have been squatting in prison before, and we don't know anything about the outside world, especially the contradictions between the base and this so-called organization. ”
Listening to Lu Yufeng's words, he looked at me deadly, he must have sensed that I wanted to speak just now.
The meaning of Ah Feng's words couldn't be more obvious, we won't admit our identities, of course I have to cooperate with Ah Feng.
I was very clever, looked at Maiti and smiled, and from another angle, said something similar to Ah Feng.
Then I reached out and asked Maiti to roll me another cigarette. I think it's still a fool of Panzi who is stupid, he smoked drunk, and there was a lot less trouble in the confusion, and I was also as drunk as Panzi.
But Maiti ignored me, and he didn't want to talk anymore, so he got up and walked outside.
Lu Yufeng and I looked at Maiti together, and then looked at each other, Ah Feng made an expression to me, which meant so dangerous.
We heard on the road that the base caught a spy, and now that we look at it, Maiti must be testing whether we have anything to do with the spy. The frost molecules are also really powerful, and they even dug out the joint code from the mouth of the "spy".
Pan Zi came to his senses a little at this time, he saw that Mai Ti was leaving, and he didn't understand anything and wanted to ask, but I stopped him in advance.
Maiti didn't really leave, he stopped when he reached the door, looked down and thought about it, and walked back again.
He explained to us that the recent period was a sensitive period, and the general specially instructed him to strictly control outsiders and never get involved in spies again. We've been tested, and there's no problem.
Maiti's words sounded very annoying at first glance, after all, there was a distrust of us, but we really should be distrusted, and being in the base, this is the territory of the frozen sudden, we will not be stupid to complain about anything.
We all nodded in understanding.
Lu Yufeng thought a lot, and really caught something, so he answered and asked, "Maiti, do you have anything else to look for us?" ”
Maiti nodded, took out a helpless look and said, "I am responsible for interrogating the spy, but his mouth is too strict, I have used all kinds of torture, and I can't dig up more secrets, today you can come, I have another way, I hope you can pretend to be a member of the organization, secretly meet the spy, he can't stand it anymore, when he meets his own people, he will definitely confess something." ”
I said in my heart that this method is really poisonous, and the co-authoring will give the spy a trick. But to be honest, we also want to meet this spy, not for the sake of Maiti's mission, but really want to dig up the secret and bring it to the organization.
After Maiti finished speaking, we can't agree right away, which seems too fake. We acted in a play, anyway, after retreating and refusing, Ah Feng also took the lead in emphasizing again that he didn't want to participate in this matter.
But the frost spikes were very short-tempered, and after being rejected by us a few times, Maiti's face sank.
He was carrying an AK behind his back, and I saw this posture and said in my heart to stop playing, otherwise Maiti would be forced to be anxious, don't use a submachine gun to surprise us.
I hurriedly let go of the soft words, saying that they are all brothers, and since Brother Maiti values us, we took this task.
Lu Yufeng and Pan Zi were so taken by me that they also compromised one after another.
Maiti was satisfied, and told us that tomorrow during the day, he would make a plan, and when he came to pick us up in the evening, he would tell us tomorrow night about the matters that needed our attention.
In addition, he emphasized very seriously that it is a secret for us to interrogate the spies, and don't tell outsiders, especially Zhao Han, otherwise the general will be unhappy if he finds out.
Let's take a bite. Maiti was really nothing to do now, and he got up to take his leave.
On the first day we came, we had such a good thing, I thought that our brothers would have to plot next, at least discuss how to act tomorrow, right?
But since he left, Lu Yufeng looked preoccupied, he didn't say anything to the two of us at all, and emphasized going to bed quickly.
Among us, Lu Yufeng is the military advisor, he doesn't squeak, what else are Pan Zi and I plotting? We couldn't help it, so we both lay down on the kang and fell asleep.
When I woke up halfway, I saw Lu Yufeng sitting on the edge of the kang, he was very energetic, and his fingers were constantly scribbling on the eaves of the kang, as if he was calculating things.
There were no other accidents that night, and the next morning we were woken up by a loud noise.
We got up and went out to look and saw that these cryophytes were training. There is a field in the base with deep pits, earthen walls, and a sandy beach.
A group of frost-clad elements "played" here, during which they also fought each other hand-to-hand, and it was a real fight, looking at the way they fought and died, I can understand why these people are so terrifying.
We have nothing to do, we can only be bored and blind. When it was almost noon, the base was opened.
There is no cafeteria here, and there is no fixed place for everyone to eat, anyway, someone brought the wooden scoop with the food, and everyone grabbed it with their hands to eat.
I found that most of them like to squat outside the house and eat, and we all learned the same.
During this period, Sha Likun and the black boss both appeared, Sha Likun didn't look at you as the leader, he was also very "close to the people", he squatted at the door of his house with the black boss.
I didn't see him for a night, and I found that the black boss was a lot haggard, as if he had been sucked by a goblin.
Pan Zi looked at the black boss from a distance, laughed, and said to us, "The general is old, so he can only let the black boss be a stand-in." ”
Lu Yufeng and I didn't answer, and we didn't want to discuss this kind of topic with Panzi, a little beast.
We focused more on the environment.
I counted it carefully, and there were four people in charge of delivering food, and Maiti was among them. This also made me understand why we just came to the base last night, and Maiti knew that we were here and found us. He's a guy to co-author.
I wondered a little in my heart, since he was in charge of the logistics of the base, why did the general let him interrogate the spies? Can't someone else do it?
Lu Yufeng took advantage of the time to say a sentence, which made me even more incomprehensible. He looked at Maiti and sighed and said the three words "Ten Constant Servants".
After we finished eating, the general took the black boss to a wooden hut, which was the largest in the base, and there were always two cryopods standing guard in front of the door. We wanted to follow, but as we walked that way, the two Frost Turquoise immediately looked at us.
I noticed a detail where they also put their index fingers on the trigger. It's a dangerous sign, and I guess we'll dare to go a little further, and they'll shoot us.
Lu Yufeng stopped first, turned around and led us away.
Panzi was very curious, and secretly asked, "What will that wooden house be for?" ”
Lu Yufeng asked the two of us rhetorically, "What did the black boss send flour for?" ”
I thought about what Ah Feng meant, understood everything, and answered Pan Zi, "The wooden house should be the arsenal of the base, and the general took the black boss to pick up the goods." ”
