I didn't have a lot of time, so I immediately started to organize my thoughts and continue where I had been. After Ivan left, the three of us fell into a state of confusion.

It is clear that Ivan knows a lot of things, but he does not tell us. It may be because we are afraid that we will think too much, or that we don't need to know at all. The feeling of being kept in the dark was very uncomfortable, and Ivan's reaction made our actions for the night meaningless.

It was about seven o'clock in the morning, and the three of us had to leave Ivan's tent with our heads down. The engineers outside got up early, and everyone seemed busy. We didn't see Ivan's figure, and Bacheng went to the scene to command. We said a brief goodbye to Talia and headed back to our tent for a good night's sleep.

The physical exertion of one night is really a bit big, and even Chen Zaihai, who is always full of energy, has a faint hint of fatigue between his eyebrows.

I also knew that it wasn't just physical exhaustion, and we were all very heavy at seeing the final result of the task force. After all, they've always been one of the biggest targets of our mission, but this mission ended in a way that no one wanted to see, which was honestly frustrating...... Coupled with Ivan's indifferent attitude after returning, our enthusiasm was suddenly suppressed like a candle in the wind.

As soon as we got back to the tent, we collapsed on the marching bed, and soon fell asleep. I slept so hard that I didn't even have a dream in the middle of my daze. When I woke up again, it was already 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and we had slept for more than half a lap. I rubbed my cloudy eyes and subconsciously wanted to light a kerosene lamp. As soon as I lit a match, a figure was reflected in the faint light of the fire.

It was so dark that I couldn't tell what it was, and with a strange scream, I began to step back with my hands and feet, knowing that I had hit it and was still snoring, so Chen Zaihai stopped.

I suddenly sobered up a lot, and my heart said what is going on? After squinting his eyes and staring carefully at the dark figure for a few seconds, the tense atmosphere disappeared without a trace. Ignoring the figure who seemed to be stunned by my reaction, I lit the kerosene lamp to myself. The tent suddenly became much brighter, and Talia's groomed figure peeked out of the darkness.

"How can you be the same as Chen Zaihai, I was scared twice in such a short period of time." I pretended not to care and touched the kettle next to me, it was already cold. But I poured her some water anyway, and Talia didn't say anything, and took a sip without a word.

I multiplied myself a little more, and as I drank, I observed Talia's expression. Even now, I don't feel very worried about her mental state, and I wouldn't be surprised if I met the people of the task force directly, and I wouldn't be surprised if she had collapsed. I quietly glanced at Chen Zaihai behind me again, who is so familiar, don't you care about the psychological state of your old acquaintance at all?

Now it looks like Talia has lost a lot of weight than when I first met her, and she has a lot of dark circles under her eyes. But this isn't new, and it's good that a few of us have been running underground for so long without supplies, and we haven't turned into savages.

"So, what are you doing in our tent at this time?" I asked. "It's not always here for small talk, is it?"

"Can't you make small talk? Father seems to have returned to the underground warehouse with someone. Talia poked the glass cover of the kerosene lamp in a lonely way, and the light and shadow flickered in the tent. You don't have to be so sneaky, I have a good eye on the task force, and I know now that nothing can be solved by crying and crying. ”

"Then why don't you stop it, or just follow it and take a look?" A voice came from behind him. "Aren't you so worried?"

I immediately looked back, and it turned out that Chen Zaihai didn't know when he woke up. Now he is tidying up his marching bed, what kind of wind is this blowing? I've never seen this guy take the initiative to clean up his bed, is this going to change sex?

"Why are you up?" I looked at him strangely. I still feel very embarrassed that my thoughts have been seen through so simply. "No sound at all."

"You hit me so hard just now, and you woke up the cow." After cleaning up, he turned to face us and sat on the bed. "Talia carefully tell me that this is Ivan, what's going on over there?"

Talia sighed softly and slowly told us what was going on outside while we fell asleep. After we were separated, she was going back to her tent. As I said earlier, Taria's tent is not far from Ivan, and it won't take her much time to go back. But in the middle of those steps, she saw the little warrior who gave us the opportunity to leave. She felt that she should at least go over and say hello to someone so that he would stop worrying about our safety.

So she changed direction and walked towards where the warrior was. The other party looked very happy to see her, and Talia briefly talked about our experience, and prepared to go back. Before leaving, he told him to report anything to himself in time.

Then Talia went straight back to sleep, and was woken up by someone pushing her to wake up near noon. The little warrior who woke her up and said hello. He told Talia Ivan that there was a new order, this time to take people back to the storehouse. There were more than two dozen people in the group, including Ivan, all of them were fully armed.

Talia suddenly lost her sleepiness, and said in her heart why such a big thing, as the deputy leader, she was even slower than the low-level engineer soldiers. She immediately asked the warrior about her father's movements, and prepared to go over to Xingshi to ask for the guilt.

In the face of the menacing Talia, Ivan continued to organize the manpower very calmly. She was also half-hearted to her questions, and her answers sounded perfunctory. Because of the attitude of the task force and her father, the anger that Talia had been holding back in her heart suddenly exploded.

She snatched the automatic rifle from Ivan's hand and stared at Ivan with eyes that could almost see through him. In this way, even Ivan could no longer ignore his adopted daughter, he simply gave a few words to the engineer beside him, and asked Talia indifferently what he wanted to do.

This question is even more inexplicable for Talia to ask? What do you want to do? She also asked her father what he was doing. Go back to that three-dimensional warehouse? Isn't that crazy, who knows if those black rat women have left. If you don't have it, it's more than lucky, and it's no different from suicide.

And Ivan's correspondence is even simpler, shortened by a few words, which is necessary, and answers all of Talia's questions. Then no matter how Talia asked Ivan, he didn't answer positively, and finally even took out his official rank and ordered Talia not to meddle in this matter, not to have any objections, and not to join.

This made Talia stupid, when was she treated like this by her father? She even began to suspect that the tall man in front of her was not really Ivan, but someone pretending to be someone. What is necessary? Is it also necessary to send to death. She couldn't accept it at all, but she could only watch Ivan leave the camp with the people and walk towards the lift.

You've been allowed to leave the team without permission, and you should have gone to court-martial. But the rest of the mission will still be useful to you, so my punishment will be put on hold for the time being. Don't do anything out of the ordinary, or no one will be able to protect you.

These were the words of a note that Ivan didn't know when he slipped into Talia's pocket. Now she came out to show me, and we stared at it for a long time before we understood what this large passage of Russian meant. Talia herself said that it must have been left behind when she was looking for her father at noon, and Ivan led the group away after that.

"So you came back in a daze?" After listening to Chen Zaihai, he asked. "What if something happens to Ivan?"

"What can I do? We are all soldiers, don't you have a saying in China that military orders are like mountains? Talia replied helplessly. What do you think Father meant by this note? ”

When they talked, I kept thinking about Ivan's intentions. This note is really revealing, why did Ivan communicate with Talia in such a cover-up way? Wouldn't it be more convenient to put it directly? Ivan is a very efficient person, and he will choose the most correct way to do everything. Then he only explained one problem with a note

"Ivan must have something he can't tell you." I put my speculation out. "At least he can't tell you directly with his mouth. It's probably that I'm thinking too much, and I think you and Ivan are being watched by someone. ”

"Old Su, does this mean the KGB?" Chen Zaihai's expression suddenly became serious.

I replied that I couldn't say it myself, Ivan couldn't tell Talia directly, only to explain that he didn't want his communication with Talia to be seen by others. No matter how he thinks about it, there is no other possibility except that he knows that he is being watched by someone. And this person is in this camp, and Ivan is very jealous of him.

This is a very difficult phenomenon to understand, first of all, this person must be very hidden, Ivan can't specifically lock on a person, otherwise he would have dragged out this person who was spying on him and shot him. Secondly, Ivan thinks that this reminder to us will have a very big impact on that person, and if he realizes that the situation will become very bad.

"Su Zhenpeng, you don't think that person's target is actually a few of us, right?" Talia's tone changed.
