Chapter 2596

“Didn’t the policeman who brought you here tell you what happened?”

Victoria looked at Sokov, shook her head, and said with a blank look on her face: "No, just tell me that there is something that needs my help in the investigation, so you brought me here." After saying this, she murmured, "I wonder if the manager will fire me when he sees me being taken away by the police? If I lose this job, how will I be able to support my children?"

“Comrade Director,” Sokov felt sympathy for this woman and said to the director of the bureau: “I think she was just deceived and should not be considered an accomplice. Can she be treated leniently?”

"Comrade General," the director of the bureau office actually knew in his heart that this woman was innocent and it would be too unfair for her to be punished. Since Sokov took the initiative to intercede for her, he followed suit and said, "Since you said so, I will let her go when the cross-examination is over."

Sokov nodded, then raised his hand to look at his watch, and whispered to the director of the bureau office: "Comrade director, I still have something to do. I have to take a step first, and I will leave the rest to you."

When Victoria saw Sokov and the director of the bureau leaving, she couldn't help feeling panicked. She looked at the police chief sitting opposite and asked in a panic: "Comrade police officer, what are you going to do with me?"

The police chief snorted coldly: "Please explain your problem first. As for how to deal with you, it all depends on your attitude and whether you are willing to cooperate with our work."

"Cooperate, cooperate, I will definitely cooperate with your work." Victoria said with a cry: "Whatever you ask, I will answer."

After seeing off Sokov, the director of the bureau office came to sit down next to the police chief and whispered: "Comrade General means to let her go after questioning."

 “What shall we do with that man?” asked the sergeant in a low voice.

“I will take him back to the bureau and lock him up.” The director of the bureau office said, “If we don’t deal with it for the time being, I think Comrade General may have some thoughts about this person.”

Hearing what the director of the bureau office said, the police chief couldn't help but wonder: "What would Comrade General think of him?"

"He said that this person is a talented person and should not be buried in prison." The director of the bureau office said: "I think he may be assigned a job, so he will be locked up first and no treatment will be done for the time being."

While Victoria’s questioning continued, Sokov had already returned to the family dormitory of the instrument factory and continued to eat his unfinished lunch.

Seeing Sokov come back, Bakanidze asked casually: "Misha, how is the situation?"

When Bakanidze asked, Sokov naturally did not hide anything from him, so he gave him a general account of the interrogation.

After Bakanidze waited for Sokov to finish his story, he said with emotion: "I didn't expect that a thief and liar could deceive so many people with just a stolen military uniform. Fortunately, you discovered him in time today." Otherwise, we don’t know how many people will suffer unnecessary losses.”

Sokov did not say a word when he heard what Bakanidze said, because this situation will also exist in later generations. Those scammers wear the uniforms of private soldiers, and then lie to girls online, saying that they are major officers specially recruited into the army and will be promoted to generals in two years. There are not a few women who have been deceived by such low-grade lies, and many of them are even corporate executives, who are also coaxed by young liars.

 After lunch, while Asiya and her daughter were clearing the table, Bakanidze asked Sokov: "Misha, what are your plans next?"

“I plan to go to the General Ordnance Department in two days to meet Comrade Ustinov and see how he plans to arrange my work.”

“In the past two months, our factory has received many veterans, including some officers.”

Learning that the instrument factory had accepted a lot of veterans, Sokov suddenly became interested: "I wonder how your factory arranges work for them?"

Bakanidze shrugged his shoulders and said: "How else can we arrange it? Of course, they will work as workers in the workshop. The same goes for the officers. Although their ranks are there, because they have no actual work experience, they are directly assigned to the leadership The positions are not suitable, so they need to train at the grassroots level for a period of time and then adjust their positions based on their performance. "

Asya happened to come out of the kitchen. When she heard what her father said, she couldn't help but interjected: "If Misha goes to the General Ordnance Department, will Comrade Ustinov arrange for him to work at the lower level for training?" Woolen cloth?"

After hearing the question raised by his daughter, Bakanidze thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "If it were someone else, he might go to one of his subordinate factories to serve as a factory-level leader. But Misha's situation is different. Because his military rank is very high, even if he were to be a factory director, he would probably be underachieving. Secondly, during the war, he developed several weapons and gained a good reputation on the battlefield. If a talent like this were to I am Ustinov. I am afraid that I will not let him go to the grassroots level. Instead, I will directly arrange him to serve as a deputy in a department of the Ordnance Design Bureau. After he has sufficient qualifications, I will let him become the director of the department. , it’s not impossible.”

"Misha," Asia said to Sokov after Bakanidze finished speaking: "Did you hear what my father said? I think you should go see Comrade Ustinov as soon as possible to see him How do you plan to organize your future work?”

 “Hmm, I’ll go see Ustinov as soon as possible.”

As Sokov drove home, he kept wondering in his mind whether he should go to see Yakov first and ask him to accompany him to meet Ustinov.

Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the door of the compound and was about to let the guard open the door, a guard trotted over and saluted Sokov: "Hello, Comrade General!"

Seeing that the other party did not open the door immediately, Sokov ran directly to his car. Realizing that the other party might have something wrong, Sokov politely asked: "Is there something wrong?"

The guard handed over a brown paper envelope: "There is a letter from you."

"My letter?" Sokov took the letter from the guard and asked, "Who sent it?"

"It's a captain officer. He said he was from the General Ordnance Department." The guard replied: "I told him that you drove out in the morning and didn't know when you would be back. Then he handed the letter to Please tell me that I must pass it on to you."

Sokov thanked the guard and drove into the compound.

Parked the car downstairs and helped Asiya go upstairs. As soon as she reached the door, she heard the phone ringing in the house.

He hurriedly took out the key, opened the door, rushed into the room, rushed over and grabbed the microphone: "I am Sokov!"

Yakov's voice came from the receiver: "Thank God, you finally answered the phone. Misha, where have you been today?"

"I went to Khimki town, what happened?" "That's right." Yakov said: "Ustinov sent someone to look for you today, but learned that you were not at home, and that the compound The security guard doesn’t know where you have gone, so please contact me to see if I can find you.”

"When I came back, the guard at the gate of the compound handed me a letter, saying it was from a captain of the General Ordnance Department." Sokov saw the envelope in his hand and continued: "I think it was Comrade Ustinov wrote to me."

“Then can you come to the General Ordnance Department tomorrow?”

 “I think it should be okay.”

“Well, I’ll wait for you at the door of the General Ordnance Department building at nine o’clock in the morning.”

After putting down the phone, Sokov opened the envelope and took out the letterhead paper inside. The content above is very simple, informing Sokov to report to the General Ordnance Department building at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, followed by Ustinov's signature and date.

Asiya asked curiously: "Misha, does Comrade Ustinov really intend to let you work in the General Ordnance Department?"

"That's right." Sokov handed the letter in his hand to Asiya and said, "Let me report to the General Ordnance Department at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. They are probably going to arrange specific work for me."

“If you really arrive at the General Ordnance Department, it means that you will not be able to leave Moscow easily in the future.”

"Theoretically, this is the case." When Sokov said this, he thought of Chelyabinsk, which he and Yakov passed on the way back from China. It is said that there is technology that surpasses this era. People who enter there Basically living a life isolated from the outside world. If Ustinov wants to send himself there, it means that he will have no chance to meet Asya in the next few decades. He said casually: "But if there is a business trip, maybe Still have to leave Moscow.”

Since he was going to see Ustinov tomorrow, Sokov naturally couldn't go empty-handed. He dug out the sketch of the PKM machine gun he had drawn and found that he had drawn it too hastily when he was in Berlin, so he handed the drawing to Ustinov. Zinov is obviously inappropriate. So he found some drawing tools and new paper, and prepared to make another passable sketch.

 Early the next morning, Sokov drove to the General Ordnance Department.

 Halfway, a black car passed by. Sokov didn't care. After all, being overtaken on the road was a common occurrence. Who would let his car not drive fast? But after overtaking, the car did not speed away. Instead, it slowed down and drove in front of Sokov's car, preventing him from speeding up.

Seeing the car in front of him stop, Sokov had to stop the car, opened the door, and planned to go forward and argue with the other party.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he came to the side of the black car, the rear window rolled down, revealing a very familiar face.

Sokov saw this person clearly, took a step back quickly, stood at attention and raised his hand to salute: "Hello, Comrade Marshal!"

The car door opened and Marshal Rokossovsky stepped out of the car. He stretched out his hand to Sokov and said in a friendly tone: "Misha, long time no see. Where are you going?"

"Comrade Marshal," Sokov looked a little nervous when facing his old superior, and replied in a panic: "I'm going to the General Ordnance Department."

"So, you are working in the General Ordnance Department now?" Rokossovsky asked in a reproachful tone: "Since you are in Moscow, why don't you come to see me? Could it be that when the war is over, you will forget about me as an old man?" Superior?"

"No, Comrade Marshal." Seeing that Rokossovsky had misunderstood, Sokov quickly explained: "Actually, I just returned from Berlin the day before yesterday and I don't have time to visit you yet." Sokov thought to himself, Did Rokossovsky just come from Serova?

“Oh, so that’s it.” Rokossovsky nodded slowly and said, “So, you came back with Marshal Zhukov and Comrade Malenkov?”

“Yes, Comrade Marshal!” Sokov replied: “I did come back with them.”

 “What are you going to do at the General Ordnance Department? Do you work there?”

"Yesterday Comrade Ustinov sent someone to see me, hoping that I would see him at nine o'clock this morning." Sokov said cautiously: "I think he should be preparing to arrange a specific appointment for me in the General Ordnance Department. "

"With the end of the war, the army began to disarmament. If you continue to stay in the army, there will be no future." Rokossovsky said seriously: "If you can enter the General Ordnance Department, with your ability, maybe It can make a difference.”

After encouraging Sokov, Rokossovsky raised his hand to look at the time, took out a small notebook from his pocket, wrote an address on it with a pencil, and handed it to Sokov: "This is This is my current address. If you have time, you can come to my house as a guest. I am at home every night. It is getting late. You should go see Comrade Ustinov quickly. Don't keep him waiting. ”

　　Sokov raised his hand and saluted Rokossovsky, then turned and walked back to his car. He got into the car and waited quietly for the black car in which Rokossovsky was riding to leave before starting the vehicle and continuing to drive towards his destination.

The car arrived at the door of the General Ordnance Department. Sokov saw Yakov standing at the door, looking around nervously. He quickly parked the car not far from him, then opened the car door, leaned forward and greeted him: "Yasha ,I'm here."

Yakov ran over quickly, pointed to the open space across the street and said: "Misha, park your car there, and then follow me to see Comrade Ustinov."

Sokov agreed, got into the car again, and drove towards the open space on the other side of the road.

After parking the car, Sokov quickly ran across the street and came to Yakov: "Yasha, let's go."

Yakov looked at the drawing bag under Sokov's arm and asked curiously: "Misha, what drawings are you carrying?"

"When I was still in Berlin, Comrade Ustinov called me personally, hoping that I could design a new weapon." Sokov thought that Yakov was not only a good friend of him, but also a future colleague. , and told him truthfully: "This is a new machine gun designed by me."

"A new machine gun?" Yakov raised his eyebrows and then asked, "I wonder who is better compared to the German's mg42 general machine gun?"

Sokov smiled slightly and said: "Yasha, equipment is always improving. Current equipment is more advanced than previous equipment, and future equipment is better than today's equipment. It is undeniable that the German mg42 general machine gun is a It is a very excellent machine gun, but I believe that the performance of the machine gun I designed should not be worse than the mg42.”

"Misha, I have confidence in you." Yakov put a hand on Sokov's shoulder and said with a smile: "Let's go to see Comrade Ustinov."
