Amidst the crisp sound of glass shattering, Suisui used a flashlight to smash the glass of the fire box on the wall. Then she pointed to an office next to the conference room with the flashlight, "Can we just find a few pieces of furniture and chop them up to use as fuel?
I'll provide you with light."
"You are lazy." Wei Ran took out the fire ax angrily and pushed open the wooden door of the office under the guidance of Suisui's proud laughter and the light.
This room is only about 10 square meters in total. In addition to a sofa placed against the wall, a wooden desk and two wooden chairs, there is also an empty bookshelf against the wall behind the desk.
.
This bookshelf occupies almost the entire wall, and there is a row of equally empty cabinets at the bottom. No need to think about it, it is definitely much easier to split it than a table or a sofa.
Instructing Suisui to stand further away, Wei Ran rounded the ax and hit it hard on the bookshelf. With a crackling sound, the dusty bookshelf was easily split open by the slightly rusty axe, and turned into something in two or three strokes.
Debris all over the ground.
The two of them each put on gloves and picked up the chopped wood boards together. Wei Ran continued to swing the axe. After several times, only the innermost cabinet against the wall of the entire bookshelf was still intact.
.
Pulling the pieces of wood on the floor aside with his shoes, Wei Ran pulled out the innermost cabinet and was about to start again, but before he could pick up the ax, he was stopped by Suisui on the side.
"What's wrong?" Wei Ran, who was almost stretched, turned and asked.
"There is something behind that cabinet." As Suisui spoke, she picked up the bright flashlight on her desk and pointed it at the cabinet that might fall apart at any time.
Hearing this, Wei Ran put down his ax and stretched his neck to take a look. Sure enough, on the back of the cabinet, there was a square, flat canvas bag stuck with Velcro.
He and Suisui looked at each other, but Wei Ran did not rush to tear off the bag. Instead, he carefully turned the entire cabinet over so that the canvas bag was facing the ceiling above his head, and then opened it carefully.
Canvas bag Velcro buckle.
"What are these?" Suisui came over with a flashlight and asked curiously.
"For spies"
While Wei Ran answered, he frowned and looked at the things on the unfolded canvas bag that were fixed with elastic webbing. There were many gadgets in it. Whether he or Jima, they were all seen in Culp's office at Hongqi Forest Farm.
More than once.
This includes a long spy camera with a black metal matte casing and a large number of matching microfilms.
In addition, there is a canvas bag that is only the size of a wallet. Without opening it, Wei Ran knows that it contains a set of small drilling tools. Its purpose is to drill holes in the wall for placement.
Special tools for eavesdropping equipment.
Since this set of drilling tools exists, eavesdropping equipment is naturally indispensable. After searching in this 30 cm square flat canvas bag, Wei Ran took out a black plastic cylinder the size of a toothpick tube and a 20 cm long
, a long needle with a focusing eyepiece on one end.
At one end of the black plastic cylinder, there is a small earpiece that can be unscrewed, and where the earpiece was originally covered, there are several switches or knobs without any markings.
At the other end of the plastic cylinder is a small pickup that looks like a telescopic antenna and can be stored in the cylinder. Carefully pull out the telescopic pickup to its maximum length, and it turns out to be a full 20 centimeters long.
"This is for eavesdropping."
Wei Ran put aside the plastic cylinder and the set of small drilling tools he saw earlier and explained, "First use the drilling tools in this bag to drill a hole in the wall, and then insert the pickup into the hole.
Can easily hear conversations in the next room.”
At this point, Wei Ran picked up the long needle with a focusing eyepiece at one end and was as thick as a chopstick and said, "This is a peephole needle. This long needle is hollow, with a micro lens inside. Through the
With the focusing eyepiece and the set of drilling tools, you can see what's going on in the next room. If necessary, you can even take pictures of what you see through the eyepiece."
"This is not the Soviet Union... Damn it!" Suisui only half-sentenced an authentic and refined national curse. Apparently, even she realized something!
"But how is this possible?!" Suisui asked in surprise, "This is..."
"But it's far enough from Moscow, isn't it?"
Wei Ran took over the conversation without waiting for the other party to finish, "The contents of those movie reels we saw before, and more things that have not been left here. In the era of the U.S.-Soviet space race, it was almost the highest level of the Soviet Union.
Confidential. And most importantly, the defense against spies here is far inferior to that of Moscow, the epicenter of the disease at that time.”
"You mean, these are the belongings of American spies?" Suisui asked in disbelief, "But how did he get in here?"
"During the Brezhnev administration, corruption was at its most serious in the Soviet Union. It might have been difficult to sneak into the Konubair Space Center at that time, but it was not difficult to sneak into such a remote place. As for whether it was right or not.
The spies sent by the United States don’t know.”
Wei Ran sighed after saying this, "Whether it's threats, seduction, or bribes with US dollars, the difference is just a matter of the degree of temptation. Otherwise, how do you think these things were sent in?"
Suisui, who was still in disbelief, asked, "But even if it can be sent in, even if the information can be obtained here, how can it be passed on?"
Wei Ran spread his hands after hearing this, "Only the spy who was lurking here at that time knew about it, but based on the fact that these things have not been discovered until now, we can guess that the spy sent by who knows who sent it must have successfully disguised himself.
"
Having said this, Wei Ran stood up, walked to the door with a flashlight, looked at the sign on the door frame of the office and said, "This is the third floor. Looking at the sign on the door, the person who worked here at that time should be in charge of logistics."
. So if this office has never changed its owner, the person sitting behind that desk might be the spy who left these things here."
Suisui put her hands on her knees, looked at the contents of the canvas bag and said with regret, "This is a walking half a million! It's a pity that we found it too late."
"A walking half a million?" Wei Ran laughed dumbly, "We in China don't have time to help the Soviet Union, which has long since cooled down, to catch spies."
"I just said that and you still take it seriously?"
Suisui rolled her eyes, pointed to the canvas bag still stuck to the back of the cabinet and asked, "What are the rest of these used for?"
"They are all espionage tools that have long been outdated."
Wei Ran casually picked up a black box the size of a cigarette box and introduced, "For example, this one, it should be an audio amplifier. Its principle is similar to the hearing aid used by the elderly. It is specially used to eavesdrop on the conversations of people far away."
"How about giving me this small camera?" Suisui asked as she picked up the long strip camera that was first pulled out by Weiran.
"Take it if you like it," Weiran said nonchalantly, "but its film is not easy to buy."
Suisui weighed the camera in her hand and said, "I just use it for collection. Who would take pictures with something like this?"
Wei Ran carefully tore off the canvas bag while reminding him with a smile, "That camera is from Merlot, and it shouldn't be cheap, so if you are short of money one day, you can sell it."
"I'll sell it to you when I'm done playing with it." Sui Sui put the small camera in her pocket happily, "What are you going to do with the rest of these things?"
"Keep it for now, and ask someone later." As Wei Ran spoke, he placed the torn canvas bag on the table, "Okay, don't waste time, move these pieces of wood over there quickly."
"okay!"
With a little gain, Suisui quickly put on her gloves again, picked up a bundle of firewood, and ran towards the hall facing the stairs.
Wei Ran, who stayed behind, did not leave in a hurry, nor did he take apart the cabinet that was about to fall apart. Instead, he took a flashlight and searched on the wall that was originally blocked by the bookshelf. Finally, he found a
An inconspicuous depression.
He carefully dug along the depression with the tip of an axe, and casually saw a small hole that was only as thick as a chopstick. He took out his phone and took a photo of the small hole, which was no higher than his knees. Then Wei Ran placed the hole on the table.
He put the canvas bag into his arms, hugged the remaining wood and left the office.
By the time he reached the central hall on the third floor, Alili had already lit a bonfire in a rusty iron bucket and placed a small stainless steel pot filled with snow on it.
"Jima hasn't come back yet?" Wei Ran asked while the other party was lighting a kerosene lamp.
"Don't worry about him," Alili replied with a smile, "I just heard him shooting down below. He probably hit his prey and should be back soon."
Sure enough, just after Ali placed the lit kerosene gas lamp on a table that Suisui had moved, the roar of the cold wind and the huge noise after the iron door was closed came from downstairs.
"Alili, come down and help me!" Ji Ma from the first floor shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Look, I just said don't worry." After Alili finished speaking, he walked down the stairs leisurely.
Soon after, the two men climbed up to the third floor each carrying a piece of prey. The two men were carrying a half-sized reindeer whose internal organs had been cleaned. But Ji Ma, who had almost turned into a snowman, was actually carrying a piece of reindeer.
The bulging wolf skin.
With a "clang" sound, the two of them threw the prey onto the dusty floor. Jima shook the wolf skin in his hand proudly and said, "I'm not lucky. I met a lone wolf who just caught the prey. I'm so kind."
Bring them back together to keep them warm."
"We've also gained something here." Only then did Wei Ran take out the canvas bag in his arms and show it to the two of them, while also telling his judgment and guess.
Jima and Alili exclaimed in unison, "There were spies here before?"
"Maybe you can find someone to ask." As Wei Ran spoke, he winked at Ji Ma calmly.
The latter glanced at Suisui who was handing out snacks without leaving a trace, and quickly put away the canvas bag, "Let's talk about this after we get back. I'll deal with the reindeer first."
Alili glanced at Wei Ran and Jima in confusion, then stood up and said, "Let me help too. With this deer, we will have meat to eat in the next three or four days."
