Chapter 17: The Mysterious Organization

——————————————————————————————————————

I listened carefully to Officer Liu's account, and to my surprise, I never expected that Jiang Daolin and Officer Liu would know so much about my father, and they knew even more about my father than I did as a son of man.

Officer Liu relayed to me in detail what Jiang Daolin told him about my father.

When I first told this story, I said that after the Yunnan expedition thirty years ago, my father redirected his entire academic research and began to publish papers in major academic journals, but soon my father was warned not to publish such articles again. After that, my father gradually faded out of history.

At first, I thought it was because my father was free and easy by nature and didn't take it to heart. However, after I listened to Officer Liu's relay, I made a new discovery. That is, my father has never stopped publishing papers, and he has been continuing to research for 30 years, but these research results cannot be found in those academic journals on the market, and those papers have been published in the internal journals of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, that is, my father's later papers have not been completely banned, but only circulated in the hands of a few academic elites in the country.

As for the reason, it was that my father had already joined the organization involved in the investigation of the Nanwu group at that time. It's an unnamed organization, and all of their missions are closely linked to the Nanwu group, and there are elites from all walks of life in the country, which somewhat reminds me of mysterious organizations like Freemasonry in the United States, but unlike conspiracy theory organizations like Freemasonry, this organization is not completely independent, they are affiliated with government agencies, but no one knows exactly what department they work for.

However, the people of the organization do not have any heavy tasks, more often than not, they are busy with their own business, the policeman catches the thief, the scholar gives lectures to the university students, the businessman does the business, and only when there is a certain need, these people will act. The main reason for this is that they are not fighting a criminal syndicate, but a group of secret groups with mysterious identities. The leader of the organization (no one knows who he is) gave the order that he would rather stand still than startle the snake.

Although there were few major activities among the organization's personnel, these actions were noticed by the people of the Nanwu group, and they quickly took measures to make the organization's personnel disappear from this world one by one. Yes, they are gone, and there is no evidence that those who are missing are dead, but all traces of them are literally gone.

As a result, the organization's insiders panicked, and in order to find a solution, the leaders of the organization decided to hide these people, and all information about the organization was deleted, especially those related to political affiliation.

The number of members of the organization is very small, no more than two or three hundred in the whole country, but its leaders have a lot of power, and can even mobilize the army. In fact, if you want to deal with the people of the Nanwu group, you must use the army, and the ordinary criminal police team will definitely not be able to do it. The vast majority of the people in the organization only act as think tanks and intelligence gatherers.

The personnel of the organization have extremely strict selection conditions, they will not shout any clichés such as swearing allegiance to the motherland, and their selection conditions are very practical - first, have real skills, whether it is knowledge, or experience and achievements in all aspects; Second, not afraid of death; Third, it is guaranteed to be affiliated with the organization for life and will not allow secrets to leak out. If someone wants to quit halfway, then the organization will do the same thing as the Nanwu Group, so that these people will completely disappear from the world.

No one can say clearly about the history of the organization's existence, some people say that it was first established by the Kuomintang in the party during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and some people say that it was founded by our party during the civil war. In other words, most of the internal members of the organization are newcomers brought out by the elderly.

Take Officer Liu as an example, his old man is Jiang Daolin, Jiang Daolin for some reasons, he had no choice but to start looking for a successor for himself, and at this time, he found Officer Liu Hanwen and identified Liu Hanwen as his successor. This is also the peculiarity of this organization, that is, each member has the right to decide his own successor, and after that, he only needs to submit a report to "above".

Among these group members, my father is definitely an outlier (I found that my father seems to be regarded as an outlier no matter what group he is in), and he discovered the Nanwu Group entirely by virtue of his own keen insight and some serendipitous activities such as the Yunnan expedition.

Of course, at that time, my father didn't identify it as a group, he just thought that in China, there was a group of mysterious people who were still living according to the wisdom of the ancients.

Upon returning home, his papers were quickly noticed by the leaders of the Order, and he hesitated for a while between eliminating my father or recruiting him into the Order, but in the end, he was impressed by my father's sensitivity and knowledge, and decided to recruit him into the Order.

Of course, my father never mentioned these things to me.

After listening carefully to Officer Liu's account, I let out a long breath, another secret story, and I asked, "Now, my father has been missing for several months, do you know what happened?" ”

"Of course, I know it." Officer Liu said lightly: "Some other people in the organization all think that your father is very likely to have been killed, believe me, you are not the only one looking for your father, the people in the organization are also trying their best to find your father." ”

"My father, who plays an important role in the organization?" I asked.

Officer Liu shook his head and said, "There is no level in the organization, all the people are at the same level, and they all follow the instructions of the leader above. However, your father's role in the organization is indeed very special, and it can be said that your father's arrival has injected a lot of fresh blood into the organization, and many of his views have been affirmed by the leaders. ”

"And you've seen the leader?"

"No, and, I don't reckon, there are ever more than ten people in the entire organization who have ever seen the leader, but we don't have to worry about losing touch with the organization at all, because ...... Our every move is monitored by the organization, so to speak, wherever we go, as long as the organization wants to find us, they can find it. ”

I nodded silently, but I suddenly noticed something wrong, and hurriedly asked: "Officer Liu, I remember that you just said that the members of the organization are not allowed to leak secrets, so you told me now, aren't you afraid that you will also be erased from this world by the people of the organization?" ”

Officer Liu smiled mysteriously and said, "I didn't leak the secret, I just passed the secret to the newcomer." ”

"Newcomer!?" I pointed at myself in surprise and said, "You mean, I'm new?" ”

"Yes." Officer Liu smiled and said, "However, you are not my newcomer, but your father's. ”

"What? You mean, my father asked me to be my successor? But he never told me. ”

Officer Liu nodded and said, "It's normal that I didn't tell you, because you are not the first choice, and you also have an older brother, right." ”

I immediately understood in my heart that all this could be connected to the affairs of Yunnan. My father sent my brother Fan Peilin to Yunnan more than ten years ago, at that time, my brother was only to help my father complete the task, and more than ten years later, my father for some reason, knew that he would soon have an accident, so, he told my brother everything, hoping that my brother would be his successor, but, what he didn't expect was that my brother soon died while carrying out the mission left by Azina, so, at this time, as the second choice, I was recommended by my father, but, Due to the rush of time, before he could explain the situation to me, his old man disappeared without a trace.

Officer Liu said to me: "After Brother Jiang's disappearance, I met with your father several times, and the most recent one, a few days before your father's disappearance, he told me that he wanted me to tell you everything. ”

I nodded silently.

At this time, Officer Liu suddenly put a hand on my shoulder coldly, and then whispered to me: "Mr. Fan, now that I have told me everything I know, should you also give some answers to my questions?" ”

"Just ask." I said in my heart, what Officer Liu wanted to know about Lu Dao was probably nothing more than Zhang Hefang's funeral home, and my mother's body was something like how it would have lost its head, or why my mother's body was lost, big deal, I will show him the surveillance video, and there is nothing more to say.

However, what I didn't expect was that the first sentence Officer Liu said at the beginning was, "Mr. Fan, in the past 30 years, your father's research materials and manuscripts, do you know where Lu Dao has been placed?" ”
