Chapter 3505 Arrangements before departure
There are many factions within the KGB, and conflicts between them are nothing new in the world. Luo Zheng will naturally not believe Maria's words until the truth of the situation is verified. Who knows if this guy is lying? Lying is one of the basic skills of an agent. Even the polygraph test can fool him. Luo Zheng looked at the other party calmly and said solemnly: "You have two options, one is to run away and become a homeless person, and the other is to seek political asylum. There is no need to do that." Shall I teach you?"
"I ask for protection in your country." Maria said quickly.
"Want to seek political asylum in our country?" Luo Zheng looked at the other party in surprise and said solemnly. It was different in this regard. It was easy to verify the authenticity. All he had to do was go to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and issue a public statement. , even if Maria had not betrayed the KGB, she would be treated as a traitor. Luo Zheng became concerned.
"I suspect that the person who killed me is outside, and I need protection." Maria said quickly.
Fortunately, there were no other guests in the restaurant. Everyone sat in the corner and spoke in low voices, so there was no need to worry about being overheard. Luo Zheng looked at Maria seriously, feeling that the situation was a bit serious. Lan Xue guessed Luo Zheng's thoughts and intentions. Worried, he took out his phone, turned on the recording, looked at Maria and said, "Prove it."
"Okay." Maria picked up the phone knowingly, put it to her mouth, and whispered: "I am Maria, from the KGB of Polar Bear, and I am an agent. I suspect that the organization is hunting me for unknown reasons. My superiors We have lost contact and are suspected of being killed, so I now formally request the State of China to protect me and grant me political asylum."
After recording, Maria handed the phone to Lan Xue. With this recording, the situation is different. It is enough to prove that Maria is not joking. No one dares to joke about this kind of thing. Once it is announced, Maria will be treason. If you commit a crime, you will be hunted to death. Even if you are ordered to falsely surrender, you will not dare to do so. Every industry has its own rules.
Luo Zheng was almost certain that Maria was really seeking refuge. He couldn't help but whispered in surprise: "You mean your superiors discovered that there are people from the Dark Church inside, so they sent you to discuss cooperation with me. This morning Your superior was killed and you were also hunted?"
"That's right, the inner ghost must have noticed something and wanted to kill someone and silence him." Maria said quickly.
"Why don't you contact your superior's superior?" Luo Zheng asked in surprise.
"It's impossible. We can't report beyond the level. Moreover, with my status and authority, I can't find a channel to report beyond the level. Besides, the insider must have accused me, so how can the superiors believe a guilty person? I have no other choice but to escape." Maria quickly explained.
Luo Zheng didn't know much about the internal operation and management system of the KGB, but he had heard about it. He knew that the KGB had strict internal hierarchies and it was really not easy to report across levels. He thought about it and asked in a low voice: "Did your superiors say anything? How can we cooperate? You didn’t tell me when I asked you last time, but you can tell me this time, right?”
"The superior didn't tell me. He only asked me to contact you first. If there is any intention to cooperate, he will talk to you personally. I didn't expect that things would be like this." Maria explained helplessly in a low voice.
At this time, the waiter came up with the food. Luo Zheng asked the waiter to add two more dishes and invited Maria to eat with her. Maria was hungry and was not polite. As soon as the waiter left, Luo Zheng immediately gave it to Guishou. He sent a message and told Guishou to arrange a convoy to come to the hotel and be on standby.
After sending the message, Luo Zheng ate casually. This was the capital, and no one dared to use force openly. Lan Xue didn't even take this matter to heart. He had experienced more ups and downs, so he would still be afraid of this? When Maria saw Luo Zheng and Lan Xue's calm and careless expressions, her anxious heart was infected, and she began to eat with ease.
After eating and drinking, a convoy came outside and several cars were parked at the door. The boss went up to negotiate. After all, blocking the door was inconvenient for business. A man got out of the car. It was Guishou. Guishou patted the boss. After saying something over his shoulder, the boss suddenly didn't dare to say anything and got out of the way.
Guishou hurriedly walked into the hotel and saw Luo Zheng who was drinking tea slowly. He hurried forward. Luo Zheng nodded to Guishou, pointed at Maria and said: "Send it to the diplomatic side and leave it to them." Handle it and be careful on the road.”
Guishou nodded in agreement, and Maria stood up in agreement. Following Guishou, he walked out of the hotel and got into the car. The motorcade left quickly. Luo Zheng also stood up to pay the bill, helped Lan Xue get into the car and left. On the way, Lan Xue Xue suddenly said in a deep voice: "The Dark Church actually covers the sky with one hand in the KGB. Could this matter be related to the competition?"
"What?" Luo Zheng was concentrating on his own thoughts and didn't pay attention, so he couldn't help but ask.
"I'm worried that this matter is related to the competition." Lan Xue said again.
"Is there any connection here?" Luo Zheng was surprised and thought about it. He vaguely grasped something, but when he thought about it carefully, he couldn't grasp anything. After thinking for a while, he said in a deep voice: "Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. The soldiers will come to block the water." Just come to Tubu, we have already prepared a back-up plan anyway, so let’s just give it a go and fight.”
"That's right, in the face of absolute power and strength, all conspiracies and tricks are just a cloud and can be destroyed directly." Lan Xue smiled, full of confidence in Luo Zheng.
"You are more confident than me." Luo Zheng smiled.
The two of them laughed and chatted all the way, and unknowingly returned home. Luo Zheng sent Lan Xue into the room to take a nap, while he flipped through the relevant information about Siberia sent by Blue Star on his mobile phone. The information was very detailed. , climate, flora and fauna and various strange phenomena in the past are all introduced in detail.
Not long after, Luo Zheng received a text message from Blue Star. The mountain eagle had secretly left with its troops and equipment, and was hiding near the competition area. Luo Zheng compiled a text message to reply to Maria's matter. Blue Star collaborates with Red Plum Blossom to track down Maria's superiors as soon as possible and find out the truth behind it.
There was only one day left before the competition. After reading the relevant information, Luo Zheng was going to take a rest to recuperate and prepare for the competition. When he saw his parents coming back from outside with a lot of fresh vegetables in their hands, they probably went to the vegetable market. Luo Zheng thought about it. , gave up the idea of resting, and asked his father to play chess and chat while Luo's mother went into the kitchen to prepare food.
I have been away for a month, and I still don’t know what will happen. Luo Zheng plans to spend more time with his family. Luo Hu is also a soldier. He can’t see any clues. Seeing that there is no one else, he lowers his voice and asks: "Yes Don’t you want to go on a long trip? Don’t worry, your mother and I are at home, it’ll be no problem.”
"Well, this trip may take some time, and we may not be able to make it back even if the child is born." Luo Zheng said apologetically.
"We're fine. Xue'er is fine. Just go with it. Don't forget that you are a soldier. Soldiers should stand upright and take responsibility for everything." Luo Hu said in a low voice.
Since ancient times, it was difficult to have both loyalty and filial piety. Luo Zheng deeply understood the bitterness and pain. He nodded silently, his heart became heavy, and he looked at his father Luo Hu with eyes full of guilt and self-blame.
