On the day when the wrestlers Miguel and Juliano and their families visited, Wei Ran, together with Jima and Maya, who happened to be guests, and Greva, who was also a gang member, warmly entertained the guests from Spain.
It was obvious that these people who were also from gangs had more topics to talk about together, especially when Greva and Jima took them to the sauna villa, these people had already begun to call themselves brothers enthusiastically.
As a star, Maya, also escorted by Baba Yaga's pink girls, took Miguel and Juliano's wives and children to start a check-in tour in downtown Kazan.
Under such warm hospitality, Juliano and Greva even reached some cooperation intentions between gangs.
Not only that, Miguel is even discussing with Dima about making two movies, a movie about a Spanish wrestler and a movie about a Romanian gang - based on him and Giuliano.
Although Jima did not have the right to decide this matter at all, both he and Greva were extremely confident and interested in this matter.
In contrast, Wei Ran, the "scholar", felt a little "out of place" among them.
Needless to say, on the second day, Jima and Maya became the main hosts to entertain the two Spanish friends and placed them in a studio outside the city.
It was rare that his home was quiet and he had solved most of the things at hand. Wei Ran also hid in the basement of the library and locked the heavy explosion-proof door.
Taking a deep breath, he took out the metal book, opened it, put his hand on the page with the outline of white edelweiss, and entered the farm in Clara's dream for the third time in the strong white light.
"You are late today"
When the white light faded, Wei Ran sat on the sofa next to the table again and heard Clara's voice at the same time.
“Really late”
Wei Ran nodded, quickly picked up the suitcase at hand, and took out some delicacies from Russia that he had put in in advance.
"Are you going to join the war again?" Edelweiss asked, passing a glass of red wine.
"I went to Leningrad and also to Afhan."
Wei Ran took the red wine and clinked it with the other person, tiredly telling the only person he could talk to about the experiences he could only tell her, and about everyone he met in those dreams.
As the hands on the dial beat tirelessly, time passes minute by minute, consuming 12 precious hours.
At the same time, outside the dream.
The Hela organization hiding in the dark also began to exert its efforts, and through various means broke out more breaking news related to the recruitment of the floating corpse, as well as various incidents that popped up after the disappearance of Ms. Nile.
Detailed information about cow ghosts and snake gods.
In this premeditated diversion of disaster, the pieces of information hidden in Ms. Nile's body also brought disaster to some semi-official organizations in the recruitment area.
On the same day, Suisui, who was busy entertaining friends in Inta and filming a movie, finally accidentally learned the news about the comics solicitation shortly after getting up, and noticed the reward for this solicitation competition.
Amount.
Turning her head to look at the Katenka sisters across from her who had also finished their breakfast, Suisui took a deep breath as if nothing had happened and said, "Let's go, we should go check out the recruitment situation for extras."
"Sister Aurora, aren't you curious?" Anfisa asked proactively after a moment of silence.
"Not curious"
Suisui thought for a while and replied firmly, "It must be something done by his scumbag friends. If he doesn't want me to know, then I won't know."
"You are so easy to talk to."
Anfiya couldn't help but said that it was purely an accident that Suisui saw this news, but her attitude surprised the two sisters even more.
"This is not easy to talk about"
Suisui patted Anfiya on the shoulder, "This is called trust."
"Is this trust?" Anfisa couldn't help but ask.
"Of course it counts as trust"
Suisui stood up and walked out while minding her own business and said, "I'm afraid of earthworms. I've been afraid of those disgusting little bugs since I was a child, so he would hide it from me when he encounters earthworms, even if I accidentally step on one."
Having said this, Suisui turned around and showed a bright smile, "I guess there must be earthworms in that submission competition, so I'd better pretend not to know. If I'm scared, he will definitely be worried too."
"You guys have such a tacit understanding," the Katenka sisters said in unison.
"You two also have a good understanding of each other."
While Suisui was speaking, she had already taken over the polar cold-weather clothing from Anfisa and put it on, "Okay, let's not mention this anymore. What is our itinerary for today?"
"Go to several local schools to select young actors for The Last Line of Defense and be interviewed."
Anfisa handed over the scarf and replied, "We will also discuss the plan to open Chinese courses in local schools with the local education department in the afternoon."
"Where are Makar and the others?" Suisui asked, taking the scarf.
"They took a plane to chase the aurora last night and are now resting at the hot spring camp."
"In this case, let's ignore them. Let's buy some cakes as gifts on the way," Suisui said. "Remember to ask Misha to help prepare some tropical fruits that the children like. Wash and cut them in advance and put them in boxes."
"Already ready" Anfisa replied while looking at her sister.
While everyone was busy in their own way, Suisui finished the whole day's work, and Wei Ran also returned to this familiar and despairing world around nine o'clock in the evening with Clara Edelweiss kissing her goodbye.
In the last few days before the Catholic Christmas, Wei Ranzhi asked those unreliable but diligent pink little girls to clean and decorate the villa and the library next door.
, he even deliberately built several large snowmen in the yard, and built a rather beautiful igloo with ice cubes cut from the Kaban Lake.
While he was preparing for the New Year with all the lights and decorations, Miguel and Giuliano from Spain took their family to bid farewell to Wei Ran and Greva who had become friends, as well as the movie star Jima and his wife, and took a flight
Fly to Spain.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! On the same day, Jima also took his parents and Maya, as well as Karp, Apoli, plus Lyubov who was going to visit his brother, on a private
The plane flew to Volgograd.
On December 24, Suisui finally rushed back from Inta with her followers and the two families of Makar and Diego.
Only half a day late, Professor Alexei and his aunt or mother-in-law, whom he had not seen for a long time, also came to Kazan from Murmansk.
Suddenly, the yard, which had been quiet for a few days, became extremely lively again.
“Unbelievable”
Professor Alexei held the car window open and said with tears streaming down his face, "My daughter actually bought me a brewery! It's such a blessing from God that my daughter bought me a brewery! That's right.
You, Victor, what gift have you prepared for me?"
"I have prepared the latest alcohol detector for you."
Wei Ran, who had just driven them back from the airport, reminded helplessly, "This brewery is still a construction site."
"Stop talking nonsense, get out of the car quickly and take a picture for me. I will send it to my friends!"
As he said that, the rosy-faced Professor Alexi had already pushed open the heavy car door and stood in front of the remaining statues of the winery, letting Wei Ran take a few photos for him.
"I'm going to have a drink today"
While sending the photos he had just taken to the group, Professor Alexei said to Wei Ran, "So hurry up and help me find a suitable reason, otherwise I will not marry my precious daughter to you."
"Aunt, professor, no, uncle said he wanted to drink, just have a bottle." Wei Ran shouted straightly.
"Drink, whatever he wants."
The aunt who was sitting in the car smiled and cursed, "Hurry up and get in the car. It's the last few steps. I don't want to walk over."
"It is finished"
Wei Ran winked at Professor Alexei and said.
"I have temporarily decided to stay for a few more days," the professor said, and quickly got into the carriage.
Driving the car through the construction site and directly into the yard, Suisui immediately opened the car door and jumped out first, greeted the old couple and walked inside.
Perhaps out of their absolute trust in their daughter or Wei Ran, both Aunt Zhou Shujin and Professor Alexei were particularly enthusiastic about the large group of young girls who came out to greet them, and even gave them to Baba Yaga.
The little girls, as well as Makar and Diego who came over as guests, all prepared gifts.
While Wei Ran and Suisui were busy entertaining family and friends, in a building in a certain city in the United States, monitoring of the mobile phones of Makar, his wife, and Diego's family was also suspended.
"Based on the monitoring results of these days, there is no evidence that the Makar family is planning to abscond. There is no evidence that the Chinese person is related to the chicken rot accident, and there is no key word that the woman may survive." In the office, a man in a dress
The woman in formal attire said according to the script.
"It seems like it was an accident."
The man sitting behind the desk waved his hand, "The Makar family has no value anymore."
"Do you want to erase it?" the woman in formal attire asked.
"Don't get yourself into trouble. Stop monitoring their family. Since they are willing to move to Australia, it can save us a lot of money."
"Why don't you kill them?" the woman in formal clothes asked unwillingly.
"Are you an idiot?"
The man behind the desk asked, "What if, I mean what if that man is still alive? Even if he is dead, what if he still has friends alive? Have you forgotten that scary poison?"
"The Soviet Union is no longer here," the woman in formal attire said noncommittally.
"If the Soviet Union were still around, those mad dogs would at least have a rope around their necks."
The man behind the desk snorted coldly, "The trouble is that the Soviet Union is no longer around, and I'm not surprised by anything they do.
In order not to be hung on the street lamp in front of our house tomorrow morning, we should show some dignity to each other. It is best that Makar, who knows nothing, is willing to leave the United States, and this matter can end here."
"I see"
The woman in formal attire nodded, "Next..."
"Next, let's find out when that German woman came to recruit!"
The man behind the desk said irritably, "This is the most important thing. We need to check carefully to see who the missing sensitive information was sold to by that stupid woman. By the way, where is her family?"
"She has been silenced by her employer," the woman in formal attire said.
"Continue to investigate, this will be this year, no, this may be the most important thing next year. Deploy more people to find those biological information, keep an eye on the dark web and the international black market, and clean it up immediately once that information appears.
"
"I'll make arrangements right away"
Before she finished speaking, the woman in formal attire immediately turned around and left the office.
"The monitoring software on their mobile phones seems to have been cleared," Anfiya said while typing on the keyboard in the basement of the library.
"Can we invade them?" Anfisa asked.
“It’s hard”
Anfiya shook her head, "The other party will definitely not make such a stupid mistake. We may be suspected if we invade rashly."
"In that case, let's go have a drink."
Anfisa stood up and said expectantly, "I went to Jima's house in the afternoon to get another piglet. We will definitely succeed this time!"
"Should we forget it?"
Anfiya said with a grimace, "I don't want to try the burnt pig skin."
“It was just a mistake last time”
With that said, Anfisa had already picked up some canned vegetables and left the basement happily.
In the last few days of the year, due to the participation of Suisui's parents, Chinese dishes on the dining table have become a regular guest.
Not surprisingly, Professor Alexei also took a fancy to the flag that Weihan brought back from Spain not long ago.
In order to appease Jiu Mengzi, who was both his teacher and his father-in-law, Wei Ran could only give him the Berlin honor guard he had received before as a gift.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This gift obviously makes Professor Alexei particularly satisfied. As for the weiyan, he really doesn’t care about it. It doesn’t mean anything to him.
It's just a problem.
Time flashed to the second day of the new year, and my aunt hurried to Murmans dragging Professor Alexei, who had fallen in love with tequila, with Makar and Diego's families also saying goodbye and leaving on the same day, preparing to return.
Go to the United States to complete the business settlement as soon as possible.
After seeing off her family and friends one after another, Suisui leaned on Wei Ran tiredly, "I'm about to enter the period of social burnout. Why am I so tired at the end of this year?"
"How many waves of people have come here before and after"
Wei Ran yawned as he spoke, "It's finally quiet now. What are your plans for today?"
"Sleep, I have to go back and have a good sleep before we talk." Suisui also yawned as she spoke.
As early as four days before the new year, Suisui gave all her employees a holiday.
However, except for the pink girls who were busy returning to Inta, the rest, whether they were girls Hela, Katenka, or Marta, were all homeless in a certain sense.
Because of this, even if these girls had no work during the holidays, none of them thought about going out to play for a few days. Instead, they stayed with peace of mind and spent the New Year lively together.
Naturally, Suisui, a smart girl, seemed to have forgotten and didn't even ask those employees who claimed to be "overseas students" why they didn't go home. Instead, she treated them equally like a parent and took them to have fun for a few days.
.
In a sense of tacit understanding, this somewhat confused New Year's Eve was extremely successful and lively, and everyone was extremely happy.
From the 3rd to the 10th, Suisui spent a week's holiday to recuperate her energy and once again devoted herself to intense work.
Also on the 10th, Wei Ran, who wanted to continue to be lazy, was unprepared to welcome the American customer introduced to him by Niniel.
"Hello, Mr. Victor, I am Brad Downey. Mr. Fidel introduced me here."
In a specially designated reception room in the library, an old man who looked about fifty years old and had a standard mixed-race appearance greeted Wei Ran who came after hearing the news very politely in French.
Here comes a ninety-degree bow full of cherry flavor.
"Mr. Brad, please take a seat."
Wei Ran raised his eyebrows, and after shaking hands with the other party, he asked him to sit down. The Fidel he mentioned was Nineel's name in the United States.
"I did hear Fidel mention you..."
"Fidel and my father were very good friends"
Brad explained, "My father was supposed to come to visit you in person, but he was already admitted to the hospital at Christmas. I came here to ask you to complete the investigation as soon as possible, at least not to let him take you away."
Move away with regret."
"Your father..."
"Pancreatic cancer," Brad said, "I'm afraid his time is running out."
Having said this, Brad seemed to have thought of something in hindsight. He quickly opened the briefcase he brought, took out a few things from it and placed them on the table. At the same time, he kept saying, "Wei
Mr. Kedo, if you can help us investigate what we want to know, these things will be yours."
Hearing this, Wei Ran did not speak in a hurry. Instead, he took out a pair of gloves and put them on, and looked at the things placed on the table one by one.
The first thing is a photo album, which is full of negatives.
After getting the other party's permission, Wei Ran took out his phone and adjusted the screen to maximum brightness, then brought up a pure white photo, and finally covered the screen with a tissue.
After making these preparations, he placed his phone under the negatives and browsed around them roughly.
These photos are basically taken by aerial cameras, and they are all of the ground on fire.
"Is this what your grandfather left behind?" Wei Ran just flipped through a few pages and put away his phone.
"Yes, it was left by my grandfather. His name is also Brad Downey."
"Can we just chat?" Wei Ran asked the question without raising his head, and at the same time he was carefully looking at the second thing.
This is a photo album covered in crocodile skin. When you gently open it, there is an English signature of "Curtis Emerson LeMay" on the title page. There is a metal tube fixed next to it.
Continuing to scroll back, the album is full of photos from the Second World War.
There is an airport, ground crews transporting artillery shells, B29 bombers refueling and loading bombs, and US soldiers in various poses.
"This cigar was originally stored in this metal tube."
Brad pointed to a third object, then to the metal tube fixed to the edge of the album, and then asked, "What do you want to talk about?"
“Just a casual chat”
Wei Ran said casually as he picked up the third thing, "For example, your bloodline."
"My grandmother was a recruiter," Brad said, "and my mom was a recruiter."
"Your father participated in the Vietnam War?" Wei Ran raised his head and asked.
"That's right"
Brad nodded, "He lost one of his paws in Yue Difficulty. How did you guess that?"
"I can't think of any other way for your father to have the opportunity to meet a more difficult girl."
As Wei Ran spoke, he placed the glass tube in his hand on the table again. There was a complete cigar sealed inside, which also had the English signature of "Curtis Emerson LeMay" on it.
"Is this considered a specialty of historians?" Brad smiled. He didn't seem to feel that the conversation just now was rude.
“It’s considered an occupational disease.”
Before Wei Ran finished speaking, he had already picked up the last item, which was a brass key ring that was as thick as a wrist and extremely solid in workmanship.
On this key ring, one by one, there are red ribbons.
"Is this the napalm safety pin tab?" Wei Ran asked.
"That's right." Brad nodded and confirmed Wei Ran's guess.
"Now there's only one last question left."
Wei Ran said, already taking off his gloves, "Fidel told me that his friend hopes that I can find a way to prove that those signatures are indeed left by General Le Mei, and then he will auction them and use part of them to pay
The cost of hiring me. But just now you said, use these things as my reward?"
"That's right"
Brad nodded, reached out and opened the photo album with the signature. After flipping through it skillfully, he pointed at one of the photos and said, "One of the purposes is to investigate whether those signatures were left by General Le Mei, but
The main purpose is to hope that you can help us find a way to find where this person has gone."
"Is there anything special about him?"
Wei Ran looked at the person in the photo and asked. The photo was taken of a blond young man. He was shirtless and smiling brightly. At his feet, he also stepped on a solidified letter filled with various beautiful greetings.
Petrol bombs.
"He is a thief and stole my grandfather's amulet." Brad said with a trace of unhidden resentment in his tone, "I want to find that amulet."
"So do you want me to help you confirm the authenticity of the signature, or do you want me to help you find the person in the photo, or do you want me to help you find your grandfather's stolen amulet?" Wei Ran said bluntly.
"To find the person in the photo, just find him." Brad said immediately.
This grandson must be hiding something...
Wei Ran secretly guessed, but said, "Our employment needs to sign an agreement. Before I start the investigation, these items that are both clues and commissions must stay with me until my investigation is completed or terminated.
Problem?"
"Stay here with you?"
Brad asked subconsciously, and then shook his head without thinking, "No, no, no, this is against the rules. The value of these things is very high. There is no way I can keep them..."
"My rules are the rules here."
Wei Ran stood up as he spoke, "For Fidel's sake, I am willing to help your father investigate the truth, but if you have any objections to my rules, you can leave with your things now."
"I need to think about it"
Brad said, stuffed everything on the table into his bag, then got up and left the library.
"Follow him and see where he goes. Don't let him find out."
Wei Ran switched to Russian and whispered to the little girl beside him.
"Don't worry!" This little girl who helps make extra money in the library responded immediately.
At the same time, Wei Ran also took out his mobile phone and sent an email to Ninel, briefly describing everything that had just happened.
