In the center of Mine No. 52, shrouded in heavy snow for days, there is a spacious room on the second floor of a long-abandoned building that is heated by several large kerosene heating stoves.

Around these heating stoves, the girls headed by Suisui were wrapped in sleeping bags and slept very soundly. Only Lola, who was so frightened by the horror stories before going to bed that she didn't even dare to go to the bathroom, still had a grimace on her face.

, through the gap in the opening of the sleeping bag, looking at the red light emitting from the heating stove not far away, as well as Wei Ran and Jima sleeping on both sides of the heating stove at the door.

In another room next to it, the patrol members who came from Inta to help were already sleeping next to the heating stove, snoring loudly.

In the cabs of two heavy trucks parked at the entrance downstairs, two Inta hunters in their 40s each held weapons borrowed from the gas station. They also guarded the kerosene heating stove and vigilantly observed the situation outside.

Unfortunately, the snow outside the car window was getting heavier and heavier. Although there was no wind, the visibility in this pitch-black night was still less than 20 meters.

Objectively speaking, if Beria hadn't been lying down in the warm cab, there would be no point in being on duty in such terrible weather.

After a night's rest and a hearty breakfast the next morning, the Katenka sisters took Lola up to the third floor and helped the patrols sort out the scrap metal that was about to be transported away and clean it.

Detailed boarding.

At the same time, Wei Ran and Suisui, as well as Jima and Maya, each took borrowed weapons and walked together to the abandoned building where the nurses' dormitory where the truck was parked was located.

Standing at the back of the truck again, Wei Ran jumped into the cargo bed, pulled out the dusty small table inside, wiped it with his gloves and placed it on the floor on the side of the truck.

"Now it's time to talk about gems."

While Wei Ran was talking, he had already taken off the kettle hanging from his waist. At the same time, Suisui also spread a blanket he brought on the table and rolled it up around it.

With a soft clattering sound, uncut gems, large or small, fell from the kettle onto the spread coat one after another, and finally piled up an almost large pile on top.

A hill the size of a steamed bun.

"These gems are so big!" As Jima spoke, he had already reached out and picked up a green stone at the top that was the size of a peanut.

"As agreed, you can pick one in advance." As Wei Ran spoke, he took out the three largest gems from his pocket and placed them on the table casually.

"Just this one, this one is very good."

Ji Ma shook the stone in his hand, but he didn't even look at the three big guys Wei Ran had just put in.

"How will the rest be distributed?" Wei Ran turned to look at Suisui, "The most important question is whether Lola has a share in these gems."

Hearing this, Suisui did not rush to make a decision. Instead, she looked at Wei Ran and asked, "Without what Lola provided, could you have found these things?"

Wei Ran thought for a while, nodded and replied, "It's not a big problem. I've known about the existence of those three projects for a long time, and even more about the pistol hidden in the book. I just never thought there could be any valuable story behind it, so

We just didn’t investigate in depth. If we want to investigate this matter, even if Lola doesn’t show up, we can still find the house and find other things in the house.”

"second question"

Suisui picked up a stone and looked at it, then threw it back on the table, and her eyes also looked at Jima and Maya, "Without us, would Lola be able to find this place and discover these stones?"

"Unless she can persuade Victor to help her," Jima and Maya replied in unison.

"In this case, these stones have nothing to do with her."

Suisui grabbed a handful of stones and let them slip from her fingertips, "Of course, after these stones are processed, we can give her a set of jewelry, but that's the most we can do. In this matter,

We've helped her enough. Even if their comedian comes over, they probably won't be able to say anything."

"I agree with Aurora's decision," Maya said first.

"This matter has nothing to do with her in the first place."

Ji Ma also expressed his attitude, shook the stone still in his hand and said, "Of course, it has nothing to do with us. How to deal with these things is a matter for the two of you."

"Don't say that, it will have something to do with you soon."

Wei Ran casually grabbed five stones and placed them on the table in front of Ji Ma, "These five stones are for the hard work of Inta's friends."

Ji Ma looked at Wei Ran, hesitated for a moment and then happily put away the five stones.

"Then it's yours." Wei Ran grabbed five stones again and pushed them to Jima.

"I won't want it this time"

Jima waved her hand and refused without thinking, "It's enough for me to catch a spy when I come to Saranpaul this time. This is more valuable than any gem."

Having said this, Jima glanced at Maya secretly, and the latter rolled her eyes in cooperation, with the look of disgust on her face not concealed at all.

After solving the problem of gems in a few words, Wei Ran put the remaining stones back into the kettle and handed them to Suisui for safekeeping, along with the three that couldn't be inserted.

If nothing else goes wrong, after returning to Kazan, these stones will be further sorted, and then the relatively low-value batch will be handed over to the cheap tutor Kajik to help with the liquidation.

“What to do with the stuff in this car?”

Suisui asked, pointing to the truck next to her. They had already visited it when they arrived here last night, and even the Japanese saber in the car became Ji Ma's trophy.

Wei Ranhun waved his hand nonchalantly, "Let's take it with us! There aren't many things anyway, so this will save others from worrying about it."

As the captain of this transportation team, Ji Ma naturally had no objection and directly pulled off the walkie-talkie fixed on his shoulder to make arrangements. At the same time, Maya also got two green melons as gifts from Suisui.

stone.

After completing the division of the spoils simply and directly, the four people chatted and laughed and returned to the building where the incarnation was moving. They helped to take away all the things worth taking away from the third floor, and even all the sundries in the truck.

Loaded into the cargo bays of those two large trucks.

Now that they have taken what they need and found what they need to find, there is no need for anyone to stay. Especially after seeing those rusty landmines, even Suisui gave up taking people here for a walk and killing them.

The thoughts of a sheep.

In the end, a hot pot of braised beef and cabbage soup in a crock pot was placed in front of Mikita's body and Krejci's tombstone respectively, plus a bottle of vodka as a thank you gift. Two heavy trucks carried them without stopping.

The falling snowflakes once again drove onto the frozen river, slowly driving along the way they came from in the direction of Saranpaul.

In contrast, this was Weiran's first visit to this remote industrial and mining city located on the east side of the Ural Mountains.

Watching the two heavy-duty trucks being driven away by Inta's helpers, Ji Ma also took Wei Ran and others into the hotel that had been prepared in advance.

"We can leave when the snow stops. Alili has been waiting at the airport."

Ji Ma said while distributing room keys to everyone, "The restaurant downstairs is next to the restaurant I mentioned before. The braised beef we ate in the mine was bought from them."

"Where is that company located?" Wei Ran asked as he handed the door key to Suisui.

"It's not that far from here. Do you want to take a look?" Ji Ma, who was already about to go to his room, turned and asked.

"Do you want to go together?" Wei Ran asked Suisui, who was yawning.

"I won't go." Suisui waved her hand, "I want to have a good sleep."

"Then just the two of us will go," Wei Ran said, winking at the Katenka sisters, and then followed Jima towards the stairs.

"Do you want to have fun?" Jima waited until the two of them reached the first floor before asking in a low voice.

“So be it”

Wei Ran nodded and said with white teeth as he walked out, "I asked Anfia to check the spy named Vajim through the Internet."

"What did you find?" Ji Ma asked subconsciously.

"An address in Saranpaul. Let's go and take a look and we'll find out what's there." After Wei Ran finished speaking, he took out a small note from his pocket and handed it to Jima.

After taking the note and glancing at it, Ji Ma raised his finger and pointed in the direction, "We are two streets apart, can we walk there?"

"Okay." Wei Ran nodded and followed Ji Ma, stepping on the crunching snow towards the address recorded on the metal book.

Walking all the way through the streets and alleys, the two finally stopped at the door of a single-family two-story wooden house in the night, not far from the forest and the river.

“That’s it”

Jima lit a cigarette, pointed to the two-story house not far away with the lights still on, and said, "Arily and I walked around Saranpaul many times in the past few days. The address you want to go to is that house.

It can’t be wrong.”

"Are you carrying a gun?" Wei Ran turned around and asked.

"certainly"

Jima grinned, unzipped his clothes, and pulled out a Makarov pistol with a silencer from the holster under his arm, "I brought this from Inta."

"Let's go over and take a look." As Wei Ran spoke, he had already pulled on his cold mask, then took out a pair of shoe covers from his pocket and put them on his feet.

Ji Ma smiled when he saw this, put the pistol in his pocket, also put on the mask and shoe covers.

Without attracting anyone's attention at all, the two men reached the shadow on the first floor of the house. They listened for a moment with their ears against the wooden wall. Wei Ran shook his head slightly and raised his finger to point in the direction of the door.

Seeing this, Ji Ma immediately took out a bunch of lockpicking tools from his pocket and handed the silenced pistol in his hand to Wei Ran.

Under his cover, Ji Ma easily pried open the locked door without much effort. I have to admit that in addition to Ji Ma's talent in filming, his skills in unlocking doors and locks are also outstanding.

When the two brothers were taking classes at Hongqi Forest Farm, Jima's grades were one of the few subjects that were better than Weiran.

Before opening the door, Ji Ma took out an iron pipe the size of a finger from his pocket. After opening it with a lid, he squeezed the not too much lubricant inside onto the door shaft.

After waiting for a moment, he quietly opened the door. Before the cold wind could take away the warmth of the holiday, the two of them squeezed in one after another and closed the door.

Returning the pistol to Jima, Wei Ran picked up a Western-style kitchen knife from the kitchen and pointed the tip of the knife at the lighted upstairs. Waiting for Jima to respond, he stepped on the wooden stairs.

, climbed up to the second floor carefully.

However, contrary to their expectations, although the lights were on on the second floor of the room, there was no one in the room. Only the TV set facing the fireplace was still playing the news of Red Star Channel.

Picking up the tea cup on the table, Wei Ran scraped the dry coffee inside with his rubber-gloved fingers, and whispered without raising his head, "It's been a while since I left, at least one or two days.'

"The person who lives here is a woman." As Ji Ma spoke, he had already pulled out a lipstick from the gap in the sofa.
