On the morning of the first day of the new year, Suisui woke up early. After opening the door, she threw the gifts on the bed one by one.
Almost immediately, the Katenka sisters and Lola also opened the door and each saw the door gifts. After looking at each other with the "neighbors" on the left and right, these girls immediately took their gifts back to the room and sat down.
On the carpet, gifts began to be unwrapped.
"This is a gift from my dad, and this is a gift from my mom." Suisui handed the two boxes to Wei Ran on the bed, then picked up a long box, looked at it, and handed it over as well, "This is
Grandpa Nicholas gave it to you."
After receiving three gifts in a row, Wei Ran opened the one given to him by his aunt first. What made him dumbfounded was that the packaging box contained a large glass jar, which contained a layer of red dates and a layer of peanuts.
A layer of longan and a layer of melon seeds.
"Is this... giving birth to a child early?" Wei Ran looked at Suisui dumbfounded, but found that the other person was also holding a glass jar of the same size in a daze. The only difference between the two jars was the four kinds of dried fruits inside.
The order of putting them up and down is just different.
"Very good, very good." Suisui said awkwardly with a grin on her face, "Now that I am bringing in wealth, there is no shortage of snacks to eat."
"Indeed, one jar for each fox," Wei Ran said, having already handed the glass jar in his hand to the former, and at the same time he did not forget to joke, "My aunt is quite thoughtful."
Hearing this, Suisui rolled her eyes and angrily stuffed the two glass jars directly under the bed.
The two of them picked up the gift given to them by the professor in a tacit understanding. Suisui shook the gift in her hand and said, "Mine is bigger than yours."
"Not a jar of pickles, right?"
Wei Ran joked with a smile, and when the other party rolled his eyes for the second time, he tore open the gift box that was only the size of a power bank in his hand.
What he didn't expect was that what he took out this time was a German Air Force gravity knife from World War II that was in pretty good condition!
On the wooden handle of this gravity knife, the name "Felix von Goethe" is written in beautiful Gothic German handwriting. If you look closely, it seems that this name is made of gold inlaid on the handle.
Outlined by silk.
Turning the handle over, the Gothic German writing on this side was also outlined with gold wire, but the content changed to the infamous sentence "My glory is loyalty."
After skillfully shaking off the blade, there wasn't even a trace of rust on it, and no traces of use could be seen. Even the edge was still sharp.
Could this thing have been found in this house? Wei Ran muttered to himself, retracted the blade of the gravity knife, and put it into the pocket of his pajamas.
At the same time, Suisui let out a cheer as she unwrapped a camera from her gift box.
Finally, he tore open the gift from Mr. Nicholas, and what was inside was a Tula brand double-barreled shotgun with complicated decorative patterns.
Let's look at the gift that Nicholas gave to Suisui. Although he hasn't opened it yet, just looking at the size of the gift, Wei Ran knew that the other party would soon unwrap a shotgun.
At the same time, the Katenka sisters in the next room also opened the gifts given to them by Mr. Nicholas. However, unlike Wei Ran and Suisui, what the two sisters got were two strange-looking dark gray
Matte dagger.
lingdian.
If Wei Ran saw it at this time, I'm afraid he would immediately remember that he had seen Teacher Dalia use the same style of dagger more than once.
In contrast, the New Year's gifts received by the Lola sisters were much more normal. In addition to a beautiful Snow Maiden doll each, they also each received a beautiful dress.
Before Wei Ran and Suisui could pack up the torn wrapping paper, Gouzi, who was lying on the floor at the foot of the bed, suddenly stood up, hunched over and staring out the window warily.
Immediately afterwards, the two big-eared foxes that were overturned by it also swung their big ears in a defensive posture. From time to time, they turned their heads left and right, driving their big ears to turn in the direction, obviously hearing it.
What.
He opened a gap in the curtains and looked outside. Unfortunately, except for the mist escaping from the direction of the river, he really didn't find anything unusual.
"There seem to be wild boars and foxes on this island"
While Suisui was speaking, she had already put the shotgun she had just received on her shoulder, and asked excitedly, "Do we want to go out and have a look? Let's go hunting by the way?"
"It's such a cold day, are you still going to go hunting in your pajamas?"
While Wei Ran was talking, he had already started to change his clothes. However, until Suisui had put on his clothes, Beria still looked wary. However, the two little foxes had already lost their patience and nimbly jumped to the
I got into the quilt that still had residual warmth on the bed.
When the two of them walked downstairs with shotguns, Professor Alexei had already filled the fireplace with firewood, and Mr. Nicholas had also leisurely brewed a large pot of black tea.
"Victor, thank you for the leather jacket and boots you gave me." Mr. Nicholas paused and continued with a smile, "Thank you Aurora for giving me the riding helmet."
"As long as you like it." Wei Ran shook the shotgun in his hand, "Thank you for giving me such a good gift. I can't help but want to go out and try it now."
"Dad, do you have a No. 12 bullet?" Suisui went more directly to Professor Alexei who had just finished his work.
"It should be in that drawer."
Professor Alexey pointed and complained dissatisfiedly, "Don't you thank me?"
"Did you dig this out of this house?" Wei Ran took out the gravity knife in his hand and asked curiously.
"I refuse to answer your question," Professor Alexei said with a stiff neck, "unless you give me a new New Year's gift."
"The alcohol detector I bought doesn't work?" Wei Ran asked with a grin.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "I have given up drinking"
Professor Alexei was very angry and stared until Sui Sui had stuffed the bullet into the pocket of Wei Ran's down jacket. Then he explained impatiently, "It was in the attic when I was decorating.
It was found in the house, and it was placed on the rafters."
"Is there anything else in the attic?" Wei Ran asked subconsciously. When he was cleaning up the house two days ago, he didn't go to the attic to take a look.
"There is also a TT33 pistol and a P38 pistol." Professor Alexei spread his hands, "But I have sold both of those guns."
"Let's go, now is not the time to talk about this." Before Suisui finished speaking, she had already dragged Wei Ran out of the room.
“It’s great to be young”
Nicholas sighed with emotion while holding the tea cup. When he saw the Katenka sisters also walking down, he immediately warmly and kindly greeted the two sisters to come over to drink tea. He also expressed his gratitude to them for the gifts they gave him.
Outside the door, Wei Ran released Beria's traction rope after loading the shotgun.
Thanks to the training of the past few months, even at this time, the dog did not rush forward, but walked step by step between Wei Ran and Suisui, neither faster nor faster than the two of them.
He was slow but at the same time he did not forget to help the two of them guide the direction of the prey.
However, the expression on Wei Ran's face became more and more weird as he chased down the road, because this direction was exactly the direction where the New Year's fir tree was cut down before!
As the distance got closer, Beria became more and more focused. At the same time, Wei Ran also smelled the unique smell of burning cigarettes.
Gradually, a Ural 375 truck with its front covered by a white thermal insulation blanket appeared in the field of vision. The cargo bed of this truck was also covered with a white thermal blanket tarpaulin, but there were various seemingly and mysterious paintings on it.
Learn the weird pictures that come with it.
Not to mention, the back of the truck is also pulling a walking tractor filled with garbage. To the left of the front of the truck, there is a blond woman wearing the same colorful clothes, trying to light a bonfire in a tin bucket.
, and on the right, there was a bearded man swinging a pickaxe vigorously, obviously preparing to dig out the half of the tail.
Before Wei Ran could think of how to respond, Suisui pointed the muzzle of his gun at the tree crown above the truck and decisively pulled the trigger!
"boom!"
After the deafening gunfire, the pickaxe in the bearded man's hand flew out directly and was mounted on the tree trunk. The lighter in the woman's hand also fell into the iron bucket with a clang, and even the one between Wei Ran and Suisui.
The dog Beria had his ears back and his tail tucked in.
It wasn't until the snow that had been shaken by gunshots and shotguns sprinkled on the heads of the two people that Suisui said loudly with a cold face, "This is private land, please leave immediately!"
Before she could finish her words, the bearded man and the woman in colorful clothes immediately raised their hands. But looking at the way the woman's eyes were rolling around, she knew that the other party was obviously not prepared to leave so easily.
.
"We just want to camp here for a few days and rest," the woman said as she walked in the direction of Suisui, "For the sake of the New Year, please..."
"boom!"
After the second gunshot, a scar as big as a bowl appeared on the trunk of a pine tree less than five meters away from the rear of the car. The woman also swallowed the second half of what she had not finished and hurriedly stepped back.
One step forward.
"Can you at least let us take this piece of scrap metal away?" the bearded man asked, "We searched for it for a long time before we found it."
"You better not let me shoot"
Wei Ran took advantage of Suisui to change bullets and raised the shotgun in his hand, "My accuracy is much better than hers. You can either leave now, or I will invite the police and lock you up for stealing war ruins."
.”
Before Wei Ran finished speaking, the bearded man's expression immediately changed, "We're leaving right away, we're leaving here right now! Do you need me to help you bury half of the tail of the plane?"
"You still have one minute to put down our walking tractor and start your vehicle, otherwise I wouldn't mind using a single-point bullet to boost the power of your truck engine." Before Wei Ran finished speaking, he had already changed the bullet.
Suisui also raised the shotgun in his hand again.
The bearded man gritted his teeth and quickly disconnected the tow bar between the truck and the tractor. Then he stretched out his hand and opened the car door while cursing, and spoke to the woman in a language that Wei Ran could not understand.
"Suisui, hide behind that big tree!"
As Wei Ran spoke, he cautiously pulled Suisui and hid behind a waist-thick pine tree. By the way, he also called Beria over.
Even through the car window, he could still see the flashes of cruelty on the faces of the bearded man and the colorful woman.
Fortunately, in the end, this truck that appeared out of nowhere deliberately hit the tractor and left the forest from another direction along the ruts left by them.
"Gypsy people?" It wasn't until the truck was completely gone that Wei Ran asked Suisui, who was also relieved.
"It must be them," Suisui said in a particularly affirmative tone, "It's so unlucky to meet them on the first day of the new year."
Hearing this, Wei Ran couldn't help but secretly cursed at bad luck. These so-called gypsy people have a more resounding name - Gypsies.
Don’t think of charming gypsy girls and romantic caravans when you see this word. They are just beautification of art.
In fact, in Europe and even the Americas, especially in the Balkans, these Gypsies can basically be associated with a series of unflattering adjectives such as "lazy", "subsistence allowance", "thieves", "human traffickers", etc.
This is not discriminatory or ugly. In fact, even in Russia, the best way to get along with gypsy people is to give them a wide berth, especially when they have begun to take advantage of you. Suisui’s response just now is really true most of the time.
The best way to respond.
Otherwise, as long as you are a little polite to them, your home may have less of this and less of that in the days to come.
The most exaggerated thing is that once they think they have an advantage, a large number of gypsy people will appear around your house in a very short period of time.
As for whether there are good people among the Gypsy people, be it Wei Ran or Suisui, they don’t have the time or experience to distinguish them carefully at the risk of being deceived - especially when the other party is planning to take them out on the first day of the New Year.
On the premise that the walking tractor was stolen and taken as his own.
“It’s not bad luck”
After coming back to his senses, Wei Ran pointed to the tail of the plane that was mostly dug out not far away, "At least they left a New Year's gift."
"Is this a plane wreckage?" Suisui asked quickly, "Is it the same piece of wreckage that you took me to the garage to see yesterday?"
"I guess so," Wei Ran replied vaguely.
"But why did they come to dig it up at this time?" Suisui asked in confusion as she squatted down next to the wing.
"Volgograd and its surroundings are the war relics protection zone of the Battle of Stalingrad. It is illegal to excavate war relics here, with light fines and severe prison sentences. If anyone digs Mamayev Hill, I estimate that they will be shot.
It’s not that we can’t consider it.”
After Wei Ran ridiculed, he continued with a firm tone, "It's not surprising that they came to dig at this time. Everyone is busy celebrating the New Year now, and only at this time no one notices them."
"You won't be fined if you're caught?" Suisui asked with a pointed smile, "I remember there was no ferry leaving Golonid Island today, right?"
"Maybe the sentence will be a few years longer," Wei Ran responded while already taking out his cell phone and dialing the police number.
