Chapter Eighty-Six: Chapter Eighty-Seven

"Someone named me?" When Zhao Li heard the news, he was very skeptical that the sentry at the door had heard it wrong. In this ghost place, when did Zhao Li have acquaintances? Could it be the guy who secretly protects himself as a gunman? Thinking of this, Zhao Li hurriedly ordered the sentry: "Arrange him to the reception room at the entrance of the barracks, and I will come over immediately." ”

"You, you, you ......" In the reception room, Zhao Li looked at the person in front of him, and suddenly his mind was in chaos, pointing to the person in front of him, and even said a few words about you, but he didn't know what to say next.

"Lieutenant, long time no see, it seems that you have been promoted again." The old man sitting in the reception room looked at Zhao Li in front of him with a smile, looking like he was in a good time.

"You're on duty!" It seemed that someone was there, and it was not easy to talk, Zhao Li drove the sentry on duty away: "By the way, if someone comes here, let him wait for a while, no matter who it is!" After a pause, he felt that this order was not enough, and specially admonished: "The lieutenant colonel and the major are the same, let them wait for me outside." ”

Seeing Zhao Li carefully ordering all this, the old man inside smiled and didn't speak, waiting for him to finish.

"How did you end up here?" Just asked softly, Zhao Li seemed to feel that his voice was still a little loud, and hurriedly lowered his voice again: "Didn't you finally go out, why did you come to me again?" ”

The old man opposite, although he had a plausible appearance, but with the familiarity of Zhao Li and his contact, it could be seen at a glance that this old man in disguise was Kang Hongyuan. It was the last political prisoner to come in the special prison, Kang Hongyuan, who was later kidnapped en masse.

Facing the prisoner in the past, Zhao Li didn't seem to have any idea of arresting him. There must be secrets in those prisoners, and going to prison is never because of what they have committed, it is just an excuse for the outside world.

"There's nothing to do when you come out, it's better to be safe inside, so I'm coming to you!" Kang Hongyuan has always been smiling, and he has not leaked his words at all, and Zhao Li doesn't know whether what he said is true or false.

"Defeated by you!" Zhao Li stroked his forehead with his hand, slapped it twice, and then turned around and smiled at Kang Hongyuan helplessly: "Then what do you want me to do?" Catch you back? Now there is not even an entire prison. Although he said it with a smile, it was just that this smile looked really insincere.

"I know! Not only is the prison gone, but all our materials are gone. Kang Hongyuan sat upright without the slightest surprise: "And as far as I know, you should also be a dead man now!" ”

"How do you know? You sent those killers? "Zhao Li's fake death is a secret among secrets, how can even Kang Hongyuan know about it? Moreover, the matter involved dozens of comrades-in-arms who had participated in prison management, and no matter how much Zhao Li could tolerate the fact that this bad old man was free from prison, it was impossible to let him go for no reason.

"Don't be impatient!" Kang Hongyuan didn't care about Zhao Li's staring at the enemy, he sat on the chair in the reception room calmly, crossed Erlang's legs, and looked at Zhao Li calmly.

"These are all secrets, no one can know except the culprit!" How could Zhao Li be able to calm down, and he couldn't roar out. Fortunately, he knew that Old Man Kang had no power to restrain the chicken, that is, he had practiced basic physical fitness techniques and several low-level folk exercises, otherwise he would have pounced on it.

"Confidential? Are you sure? Kang Hongyuan still had that pampered and unfazed expression: "Then, how can a special prison whose location is even a secret be robbed by armed force?" ”

This question has always been a pain in Zhao Li's heart. Even he himself had been investigated as a suspect in leaking secrets, how could he not know that someone had leaked secrets?

"Do you know who it is? Right? Tell me! Zhao Li rushed up with an arrow step, grabbed Kang Hongyuan's neck, and shook desperately.

Kang Hongyuan was tossed vigorously by Zhao Li, and he had no power to fight back, so he could only be thrown around by him, his face was red, but because he was grabbed by the collar, he couldn't breathe a little, and he couldn't make any sound.

It was Zhao Li who discovered that something was wrong in time, so he let go of his hand and let Kang Hongyuan take a few breaths. However, Zhao Li didn't want to let Kang Hongyuan go like this, he still grabbed his collar and asked loudly: "Who is it?" Tell me! ”

"Do you think that such an attitude is the attitude you ask for?" Although Kang Hongyuan was embarrassed by Zhao Li just now, he did not lose his demeanor at all, and even had time to straighten his hair that was messed up by Zhao Li while talking.

"Whoa, whoa", Zhao Li gasped and looked at Kang Hongyuan, who was being carried by his neck. Kang Hongyuan has white hair, and he is at least over a hundred years old, and his wrinkles are already obvious. Such an old man was treated so roughly by himself, especially knowing that he had no special strength. Looking at Kang Hongyuan's calm face, Zhao Li's heart softened and he let go of his hand.

"You know, right?" This time, Zhao Li finally slowed down his tone. Kang Hongyuan, who was opposite, began to slowly tidy up his clothes.

"Sorry, I don't know!" Kang Hongyuan replied categorically: "However, to be honest, it is too easy for a person like me to know some so-called secrets outside. Of course, there are a lot of people like me, and who knows who leaked it? ”

"Then who let you out, you should know!" Zhao Li approached and drank in a low voice, not daring to make too loud noises for the people outside to know. The sound just now was too loud, and it is estimated that it has aroused the curiosity of the guards.

"I don't know!" Kang Hongyuan still replied without a little hesitation. even made a shrug gesture in line with this sentence: "They all covered their faces, knocked me unconscious as soon as they came in, and when they woke up, they were already in an inexplicable place." If it weren't for my many friends, I wouldn't know where to wander now? ”

Zhao Li couldn't tell whether the old man was telling the truth or a lie, although every movement of the old man's expression, and even the matching pupil changes and heart rate were normal, but Zhao Li knew that this was a master-level master of lying. From these simple answers, it is really impossible to tell whether it is true or not.

"And what are you doing here?" Zhao Li looked at Kang Hongyuan, holding back his anger but unable to vent: "You don't want to enjoy your free world, what are you doing here?" ”

"I came here to come and see you." Still in a slow voice, Kang Hongyuan said his intentions unhurriedly: "It seems that you still have some ways to deal with these guys." In less than two months, it already looks good! ”

"Do you really know these secrets?" Although Zhao Li still didn't believe it in his mouth, he already believed most of it in his heart. At the very least, General Thomas had assured that his information would not be leaked for a long time, but the old man Kang Hongyuan was still here so soon. And listening to his tone, it seems that he knows some of his performance here.

"Of course!" Kang Hongyuan glanced at Zhao Li disdainfully: "Don't forget, who I was before I went to prison, at least some secrets are not very strict things to me, as long as I want to know, I will definitely know." ”

Kang Hongyuan's words, now Zhao Li has believed most of them. Indeed, in the case of a well-known political figure, most of the things that are not classified are not a problem for him.

Facing Kang Hongyuan, a gray-haired old man, Zhao Li was a little hesitant, whether he should arrest Kang Hongyuan or let him go unpunished.

"Embarrassed?" Of course, Kang Hongyuan knew what Zhao Li was hesitating about when he didn't speak, and he still looked unsurprised when he crossed Erlang's legs: "Is it difficult to decide?" ”

"yes!" Zhao Li had nothing to hide from this old man. The old Chengjing refers to people like Kang Hongyuan, and he can't hide this essence anyway, so the surname Suo also opened up and said: "Now that the special prison is gone, I don't know how to settle you after I arrested you." And I'm not a prison worker now, so it's not my job to catch you or not. Unless there is an order. ”

"But don't think you're safe." After saying that, Zhao Li's words changed: "You are a celebrity, other people's information has been lost, but yours has never been lost." I don't know how many people want to arrest you and get a bounty! ”

"That's why I came to you." Kang Hongyuan let out a rare sigh, which did not match the calm and breezy posture he had always maintained: "You are right, I am the one whose reputation has harmed me." If you're like everyone else, it's going to be easy. ”

"So what are you looking for me to do?" Zhao Li still didn't figure it out, at this time, Kang Hongyuan was looking for himself, what could he help him?

"Take me in!" At this time, Kang Hongyuan seemed to have identified Zhao Li, and looked like he didn't care if he couldn't do it: "You know me, and there is no way to make a living outside, so you can only take me in!" ”

"Why?" Zhao Li's head is big, and there are still a bunch of soldiers and ruffians under him who haven't done it, if you add a scheming guy, who knows what it will become.

"Well, when I surrender, you are still in charge of taking care of it." The old man's face was proud, and it seemed that this reason was also justified: "Whoever made you the prison warden, of course you have to take care of the prisoners." ”

"I'm not a warden anymore!" A little anxious, Zhao Li explained in a low and hurried voice.

"But I'm still a prisoner!" The old man's crossed legs even began to sway: "And the current identity is still a fugitive, as a former prison warden and the current military commander, you can't just watch it, right?" Do you want me to endanger society? ”

Zhao Li smiled a little bitterly, feeling that the old man seemed to have relied on him. Endanger the society, what kind of place is this, but the place where terrorists gather, what kind of harm can an old man who has no power to endanger him.

This thought just flashed through my mind, but suddenly it felt wrong. This Kang Hongyuan is not a simple old man, in just one month, he can get along with so many vicious guys in prison, and even most of the things will follow his opinion. If this old guy is mixed with terrorists or drug traffickers, who knows what the consequences will be?

"You ......" seems to have to be taken in. Zhao Li has never seen such a good person, even if it is those soldiers, Zhao Li can be ruthless, and let them enjoy it carefully, but for this old man, Zhao Li really can't do it. What's more, this old guy kept saying that he had surrendered.

"Don't be afraid to report to your boss!" Before Zhao Li opened his mouth, Kang Hongyuan had already said his request one step ahead of him: "Of course, this is not harming you, but saving you." ”

"What do you mean?" Zhao Li frowned, it's normal to report to your superiors, isn't it a bit too much for the old man to say this?

"Nothing." The old man said very plainly: "If you report it, I will definitely be taken away, but it is difficult to say what the ending will be for you and those people around you." ”

"Threaten me?" Zhao Li looked at the old man in front of him, and had the idea of punching him and fighting. However, he knew that the old man could not bear it, so he forcibly held back.

"Never!" Kang Hongyuan's rare serious expression: "It will definitely be like this." You have to think about it, why are you, the only person in the army who knows all the information about prisoners, sent to this hellish place? I'm sure if I hadn't come here, I'd have sent you to battle! ”

"Empty words!" Although Zhao Li wanted to know the reason in his heart, his mouth was very hard.

"Want to know why? I'm telling you. Kang Hongyuan changed his legs and crossed them: "Before you came, did you investigate the situation here?" ”

"Of course!" What is there to say about this, it must have been investigated, otherwise how would you take over the army here?

So, is there such a clause in the survey results? On this planet, 95 percent of military commanders above the rank of lieutenant died within two years of various reasons, while the remaining 5 percent had to leave the army because of physical disability and then lived a miserable life. Saying these words seriously, Kang Hongyuan didn't seem to hide it at all.

This was something that Zhao Li did not expect, and the information in Christine's hand did not contain these contents. Zhao Li couldn't help but snort in his heart, according to this kind of information, it is easy to get it, it is impossible for Kristine to make such a low-level mistake, right?

But in an instant, Zhao Li threw this thought out of his mind, what kind of person is Kang Hongyuan, a guy who can make you suspicious or desperate with a few words, how can you believe it casually.

"Judging by your expression, there must be no such information!" Kang Hongyuan still smiled and said: "Of course, you don't have to doubt that female lieutenant colonel, I believe she doesn't know, because her military rank is higher than yours, and her dangerous surname is even greater!" ”

"What the hell do you mean?" Zhao Li settled down and asked calmly.

"It's nothing, it's just that you know too much, but it's a bit of a small backstage, so it's not easy for you to disappear silently, so you can only be assigned here."

87. What's new

Kang Hongyuan's words made Zhao Li silent for a while. Is that really the case? If you want to let yourself die, you don't need to send someone at all, and you can also take Major Michael of a genius school. Moreover, until now, there are still two female students of the genius school with him.

Moreover, it seems that they don't have to go to great lengths to announce that they are suspended from death, nor do they have to deliberately give themselves a few choices. At least one of the options is to go to an ordinary prison, where it is safe and secure, and there will be no problems.

However, why does the information obtained by Kristeen not show the statistics of the military commander's accident here? Could it be that if you are given up, even two students from the genius school have to give up?

In the past, Zhao Li did not know the admission rate of the gifted school, but it was not until Professor Hans introduced him that he knew the percentage. A genius corresponds to at least a million ordinary people. Such a master who has been selected and cultivated with great difficulty, put it on Zhao Li, and Zhao Li may not be able to give up if he gives up.

"Is the statistics of the military commanders you said true?" I didn't feel at ease, so I asked again. Although Zhao Li himself knew that asking was a vain question, Kang Hongyuan would never take back what he said in front of him.

"Of course!" Kang Hongyuan's body sat straight, as if Zhao Li was conducting a comprehensive psychological assessment on the first day of joining the army: "If you don't believe it, at least, you should remember how your former captain went." He was lucky enough to be in the 5 percent disabled segment. ”

After these words, Zhao Li seemed to have abandoned the last bit of suspicion. However, in the face of Kang Hongyuan, Zhao Li still didn't dare to have any carelessness. This is an ancestor-level figure who plays with people's hearts, and he will fall into the Tao if he is not careful.

"You can only operate inside the barracks!" Raising the index finger of his right hand, Zhao Li began to announce the rules.

"Agreed!" Kang Hongyuan didn't want to answer.

"There is no political advocacy in the barracks!" Two fingers of the right hand.

"Agreed!" Old man Kang nodded again.

"You have to figure out how to solve your identity problem yourself." The third finger.

"Understood." Nodding repeatedly: "Anything else?" ”

"For the time being, but if you dare to foul, I will never keep you!" Zhao Li thought about it, and still stipulated these for the time being, too many regulations would not be useful to him. This guy is a powerful person who can find loopholes in the current law, and he is too detailed, which gives him a loophole to exploit.

"You're the chief, you have the final say!" Kang Hongyuan shrugged his shoulders with a smile, as if he was happy that he had found a place where he could eat and drink, and his appearance was more like a villain who had succeeded in his plan, and he had nothing to do with the righteous and awe-inspiring political image he had seen before.

"So, you solve your identity first, how can I explain it to the others?" Zhao Li looked at this guy helplessly, feeling as if he was unconsciously being calculated by him again.

"Explain?" Kang Hongyuan smiled: "You are the highest military commander here, do you need to explain anything?" To whom does it need to be explained? ”

"Of course those soldiers are easy to say, but you know, there are two cadets from the Genius School." Zhao Li is helpless about the old man's scoundrel. I can't beat it, and I can't say it.

"Two beautiful female students?" Kang Hongyuan's smile made Zhao Li very angry, and the tacit feeling revealed in that obscene gaze was really hateful.

"Do you know and ask?" Zhao Li was a little impatient.

"It's easier, and it doesn't need to be explained." Kang Hongyuan stood up and stretched his back, which had been sitting for a long time and was a little uncomfortable: "What man doesn't have a secret that can't be explained to his confidante?" If there is no at all, it will make girls look down on it! Left and right made two movements to move and twist the waist: "I remember a popular saying among you young people, a strong life, no need to explain!" ”

Hearing this, Zhao Li really felt a little crying and laughing. What kind of logic is this, what is there to hide, but it is justified? But it seems that what the old man said also has a little truth, let's do this for the time being, there is nothing to be done anyway, you can't shout, this guy is a fugitive!

"Let's go, show me my territory!" Kang Hongyuan walked out first, and the tone and vocabulary of his speech made it seem that he was the master here.

"Ahem!" Zhao stood behind him, and had to cough dryly, reminding him who was the chief here.

"Ah, I forgot, you're a chief, you ask first!" Kang Hongyuan made a very casual gesture, as if he had planned to make this move just now.

Seeing his natural solution, Zhao Li once again weighed Old Man Kang's dangerous surname in his heart, and decided to add another rule: "Also, remember, no matter at any time, you can't challenge my authority!" "Zhao Li still has a concept of a politician's ability to instigamate.

"Of course, you're sir!" Kang Hongyuan bowed slightly politely: "Do you want me to call you lord?" ”

Completely defeated by this joke, Zhao Li shook his head helplessly, walked out of the reception room with the old man, and walked towards the barracks.

"Lai, apply for an identification card in the barracks for this old gentleman." Not far away, Lao Lai was on duty, and Zhao Li shouted at him. It seems that Lao Lai doesn't mind others calling him Lao Lai, he usually calls him like this, but he doesn't know what his full name is.

Watching Lao Lai trot all the way to the duty room, Kang Hongyuan squinted his eyes and nodded: "Well, yes, a few days of hard work can make a group of tired guys look like this, which is a bit of a small means." ”

This is Zhao Li's proud work in his heart, listening to Kang Hongyuan's praise, whether it is true or false, he still feels very happy. I couldn't help but smile a little on my face.

"Young people are young people, just a polite mouth, and immediately their tails are cocked to the sky. Alas! There is no hair on the mouth, and the work is not firm! It seems that Kang Hongyuan will not let go of any opportunity to hit Zhao Li, and when he saw that Zhao Li was enjoying it a little, he immediately ridiculed him.

"You ......" Zhao Li was choked by a sentence, and couldn't say anything, so he could only point his finger at Kang Hongyuan.

"Ah, I'm sorry, but this shouldn't be a defiance of your authority, right?" Kang Hongyuan didn't feel proud of playing tricks on people at all, and his expression was very serious: "Don't worry, I only said it in front of you, and it won't affect your image in their hearts." ”

Raising his arm, he wordlessly pointed Kang Hongyuan up and down with his fingers a few times, Zhao Li was a little indignant: "You are ruthless, but I don't care about you, you should respect the old and love the young!" ”

There was an extra strange old man in the barracks, and everyone saw it. It's just that no one knows what the old man's surname is, and they only heard Zhao Li call him the old man very unceremoniously, so everyone also calls him that. Kang Hongyuan agreed with a smile every time, and on his fat face, there were two small slits left in his eyes when he smiled, which was very amiable.

No one asked Kang Hongyuan about his origins. The soldiers under his command didn't care about Zhao Li bringing an old man at all, just like they did with Christine and Li Mengdie. They were also brought by Zhao Li, but no one asked them where they came from.

Li Mengdie didn't ask anything, she completely believed Zhao Li, when Zhao Li took Kang Hongyuan to introduce him in front of her and Christine, he only said that he would let them know the old man, Li Mengdie just nodded and didn't say anything.

"Hello, my name is Christine, please advise!" Kristeen is different from Li Mengdie, she is not the kind of person who does not listen to what is going on outside the window and is dedicated to hard cultivation. Facing Kang Hongyuan, a sweet smile, took the initiative to stretch out his little hand and introduce himself.

Kang Hongyuan still shook the hand stretched out by Kristeen with a smile, not light, not heavy, just right, like a polite gentleman: "You're welcome, beautiful young lady, just call me an old man, if there is anything, just command!" ”

Even Zhao Li was on the side, feeling that Kristin's soul-snatching hook today had gone a little too far, and Zhao Li almost couldn't control it himself. Unexpectedly, Kang Hongyuan, who had only practiced low-level folk exercises, didn't seem to see Kristin's angry gaze, and he was generous and didn't lose his temper at all.

Sure enough, neither of the two women asked the old man about the origin, Zhao Li admired the old man Kang for being like a god, and at the same time, he also admired his concentration very much, you know, Kristeen is even General Thomas, who has been fighting horses for many years, has a little distracted character, but her charm is useless in front of the old man. To become a politician, it seems that determination is also a very important factor.

Maybe it was Lao Lai's sentence "I want to live with dignity" that played a role, or maybe when I talked to Zhao Li that day, I had expectations for Zhao Li's thoughts that could only be thought about but could not say, and under the drive of Lao Lai, almost the entire military camp carried out a wave of crazy exercise.

Of course, in Zhao Li's opinion, it should be more appropriate to kill the guerrilla gunner, but this is also in line with Zhao Li's requirements. At least those guys don't need to be forced, they will practice desperately every day about the statistics of the military commanders that Old Man Kang said, Zhao Li did not mention any words except for telling the two girls to be careful. I am also very energetic and careful to be on guard.

"Hey, old man, I haven't seen much change in the political situation and military circles recently, I think you must know, let's hear it!" A little worried about the old prison warden, Zhao Li soon sat down with Kang Hongyuan again.

"The old man is the old man, why do you want to add a feed? It's disrespectful to me! Kang Hongyuan expressed his dissatisfaction with Zhao Li's double title, and then slowly poured himself tea under Zhao Li's angry gaze.

"Alright! What do you want to know? Seeing Zhao Li's eyes that were about to erupt fire, Kang Hongyuan decided not to make Zhao Li angry anymore.

"What's changed in the military?" Zhao Li is most concerned about this.

"Lately? In addition to the unfavorable situation that the war has always maintained, because of a trivial matter, it seems that one lieutenant general, two major generals, four brigadier generals have been withdrawn, and two military regions have changed commanders. There are countless other small fish and shrimp that have suffered. Old man Kang didn't seem to feel much surprised, and gave Zhao Li an understatement.

"A trifle? What trifle? Zhao Li was very curious about the little things in Kang Hongyuan's mouth. With so many people moving and so many generals involved, is it still a trivial matter to change the commanders of the two military regions?

"It is said that ......" Kang Hongyuan dragged out his voice, and even stopped halfway very maliciously, drank a sip of hot tea, slowly swallowed and put down the cup, and then continued: "It is said that it is because a prison of dozens of people was robbed by arms, which is not a big deal." ”

After waiting for so long, I got such news. Zhao Li almost went black in front of his eyes and fell to the ground. Speaking of which, it was actually because of the events I experienced. However, since there is such a big move, why don't you know it at all? None of that was ever said above.

"It's normal!" Kang Hongyuan glanced at Zhao Li disdainfully: "What level are you now?" Why do you need to know these things? ”

"Am I not a party?" Zhao Li was choked by Old Man Kang's question, so he could only quibble.

"There are many parties, those emergency forces on the periphery, battleship pilots or something, if everyone has to be informed, is there any secrets in this army?" Kang Hongyuan knew Zhao Li's careful thinking at a glance, and suppressed him with one sentence.

"Speaking of which, that retired old guy is really energetic, and he is more efficient than us political axe officials when he gets things done!" At the end, Kang Hongyuan shook his head and sighed, but Zhao Li also heard from his tone that behind this, there was still the shadow of the old prison warden.

It turned out that it was his old man who made a move, no wonder those people didn't dare to attack themselves easily, but instead wanted to use the complex forces here to borrow a knife to kill people.

Thinking of the old prison warden, Zhao Li seemed to have a sense of pride in his heart, it turned out that the old prison warden still held such huge power after retiring. The gap between himself and his old man is really not one or two.

"Is there anything changing in the political axe?" After sighing, Zhao Li did not forget the original intention of looking for Kang Hongyuan this time, and asked about the political axe again.

"Because of the rebels, the people's dissatisfaction is aimed at the current political axe, and it is not so easy." Kang Hongyuan didn't seem to be very interested in these political axes, and he was not interested in what he said: "It's still the kind of people who ask for explanations, and the political axe comes forward to organize some explanations, and if they are not satisfied to the extreme, they will replace someone as a scapegoat, which is very boring." ”

Similarly, Zhao Li is only concerned, and he is not really interested in politics. Although I knew in my heart that this idea was wrong, and that I had to care about it if I wanted to climb up, I just couldn't concentrate.

"I think I'll find a job that you're still up to." It seemed to turn in his mind that Zhao Li had a new idea.

"Everyone in the barracks doesn't care much about this, you always happen to be an expert, and you are tired to pay attention to the changes in the political axe and the army, and if there is anything that needs to be notified, notify me." Zhao Li directly ordered: "In this way, I can't be regarded as raising an idler in this barracks, understand?" ”

(To be continued)
