The dusk is falling, and the lanterns are beginning to light up.
Egypt is actually very beautiful at night. This desert city exudes its unique splendor on the banks of the Nile River.
However, due to the war, the streets of the city seemed somewhat desolate.
In the car, Hong Ming gave a detailed self-introduction to the Dragon Team members. Hong Ming once served in a certain unit in Northeast China, and was later selected as an overseas personnel. He spent some time in Europe, and because of his outstanding performance, he was transferred to
Sent to the war-torn Middle East.
Hong Ming is 38 years old and has lived in Egypt for eight full years. He joked that he is already an authentic Egyptian, with an Egyptian wife and a beautiful mixed-race daughter.
Hong Ming’s external identity is that of a tour guide for an Egyptian company called Sun Travel Agency. He said with some pride: “In the past few years, when Egypt’s tourism industry was still very prosperous, I could earn nearly 100,000 yuan a month as a tour guide.
The annual income is RMB one million, which is considered a very high income in China!"
Mao Xiaowu said enviously: "Wow, I haven't earned a million even after ten years of working. Are you living a comfortable life in Egypt?"
Hong Ming said: "It used to be okay! I haven't made much money in recent years, so I'm just resting on my laurels!"
In fact, every country has many such "sea personnel". To put it simply, they are intelligence spies. They are distributed in every corner of the world, collecting intelligence for their motherland. Otherwise, there are so many weird secret intelligences in the world.
How did it spread?
These intelligence spies belong to the shady "black profession". As long as their identities are not exposed, they will live with false identities throughout their lives. Many people have forgotten their true selves. The most tragic thing is that when their identities are exposed, the country
Perhaps they will be abandoned mercilessly due to pressure from public opinion or political factors. They will be arrested, taken into custody, tortured, and then die miserably in a foreign country.
When talking about these, Hong Ming's brows will show a hint of sadness.
He said: "As long as that day does not come, he will live every day as the last day!"
There was silence in the carriage. Everyone was carefully recalling the meaning of Hong Ming's words, which were very philosophical and profound.
After driving for more than an hour, the RV entered the central area of Cairo.
After all, it is the capital of a country, so the urban area seems somewhat popular.
The neon lights on the street are flashing, and various Arabic signs are always reminding the Dragon Team members that they are in the most dangerous region of the Middle East.
Cairo is one of the oldest cities in the world. As the capital of Egypt, it is not only the largest city in Egypt, but also the largest city in North Africa and the Arab world. It straddles the Nile River and is the political, economic and transportation center of the entire Middle East.
.
Cairo is rich and beautiful at night, and everything seems to be full of mysterious charm.
The dry heat of the desert and the humid water vapor of the Nile blend together, making the air here very charming.
The RV stopped in front of a high-end-looking restaurant.
Hong Ming walked into the restaurant with Long Group and his group. He greeted the waiter familiarly. When he passed the front desk, he also said hello to the front desk manager. He was obviously a regular customer here. I don’t know how many times he worked as a tour guide.
He brought foreign tourists here and ripped them off a lot of money.
After living here for eight years, Hong Ming speaks Arabic very fluently. In Zhang Chunhua's words: "He speaks so beautifully, just like when we sing folk songs over there!"
The dinner was sumptuous, and Hong Ming showed his courtesy as a landlord.
Under the dreamy crystal lamp, Hong Ming introduced delicious dishes to Robin Hood and the others.
He pointed to a large plate in the center and said: "Egyptians like to eat lamb. This is tender roasted lamb. It is a famous dish in Egypt. The meat is fragrant and the skin is very crispy. It is a must-have for foreign tourists coming to Egypt."
A great dish to eat!”
Looking at the golden roasted lamb, everyone couldn't help but move their index fingers.
Hu Shuangyi is a Mongolian man who grew up on the grassland and has a unique love for roast mutton. His eyes gleamed with excitement, and he was the first to wave his knife and cut off a large piece of mutton, "Well, I'll try it first.
, look at the different tastes between Egyptian roasted lamb and our Mongolian roasted lamb!”
Hong Ming smiled, pointed to a plate of something that looked like bread and said: "This dish is locally called 'Fulqitamiya'. It can be regarded as an unofficial Egyptian national dish and is very popular among Egyptian people. Fulgitamiya"
Ful is made from broad beans, seasoned with oil, lemon, salt, meat, eggs and onions. Tamiya is ground chickpeas and fried into small balls with spices. Put Ful and Tamiya
Add a little tomato and make it into a sandwich with pizza bread, and you have this delicious snack with a unique flavor!"
Yang Xiaoxiao pointed to a pot of emerald green soup and asked curiously: "What is this?"
Hong Ming said: "This dish is called 'Molokia', which is a green soup stewed with green vegetables, rice and garlic!"
Yang Xiaoxiao rubbed her nose: "The smell is really weird!"
The waiter brought a plate of dark grilled vegetables. It looked strange in color, but it smelled delicious.
Hong Ming said: "You must try this 'mousaka'. It is a famous roasted dish in Egypt. It is made of eggplant, tomatoes, garlic and various spices. Egyptians have a strong taste and like it very much."
Eat garlic, pepper, chili and other spicy seasonings!”
After a delicious meal, everyone's stomachs were full.
To be honest, these foods are naturally not as delicious as Chinese delicacies, but when you are in a foreign country, you have to follow the local customs. In order to avoid empty stomachs, everyone still eats and drinks.
Leave the restaurant and return to the RV.
Robin Hood asked Hong Ming: "Where is the target person Gao Sheng?"
"It's in Egypt!" Hong Ming said.
"When will you take us there?" asked Mr. Zheng.
Hong Ming said: "Don't worry! You have come a long way. I will arrange a place for you to have a good rest first. When you fall asleep, I will take you to get weapons. How can you fight without weapons?"
Robin Hood nodded: "Very good!"
Hong Ming drove through the bustling urban area and headed towards the outskirts of the city.
Gu Fei asked: "Aren't there many hotels in the city? Why don't we live in the city?"
Hong Ming said: "The current political situation in Egypt is turbulent, and police will patrol the city every night. If you stay in a big hotel in the city, there will basically be police interrogations at night. In order to keep your identity absolutely confidential, I will take you to a place
A safe place! It’s not far away, right in front!”
What Hong Ming said made sense, and no one thought much about it.
The RV slowly stopped in front of a small hotel.
Everyone got out of the car and found that the surroundings were very deserted, with dim street lights elongating their silhouettes, and the night breeze still carrying a hint of heat.
This area is probably similar to the urban-suburban junction here in China. The construction of houses is relatively messy, and the streets are not as planned as in the urban area. Looking around, you can see large blocks of dirt waiting to be developed.
Hong Ming said: "Although the conditions here are not as good as those in the city, they are definitely quieter and very suitable for living and resting. Don't worry, the hotel is clean and hygienic, and there is hot water supply all day long. The boss is my friend, and I am with
I know him very well. There will be only you and me in the hotel tonight, no one else, so you can sleep peacefully!"
The team members walked into the hotel carrying simple luggage.
As Hong Ming said, although the decoration of the hotel is not as high-end as that of a big hotel, it is indeed clean and sanitary, and the ground floor is not stained. Although the decoration is simple, it is also full of exotic customs. It is indeed a good place with good quality and low price.
The group of people walked up to the second floor and found a total of ten rooms, each with a private room.
Robin Hood walked into the room. The floor of the room was covered with Persian carpets, and some stylish decorations were hung on the walls. There was a TV, air conditioning, and even a refrigerator. This feeling was better than that of many business hotels in China.
After inquiry, Robin Hood learned that such a room here only costs about two hundred yuan, which is really worth thousands of dollars.
"Captain Luo, is the environment good?" Hong Ming asked with a smile.
"Not bad!" Robin Hood nodded: "It's much better than expected, I like it very much!"
"As long as you like it!" Hong Ming said, "You are also tired. Go to bed early. I will pick you up when you get up tomorrow!"
As Hong Ming spoke, he walked to the bedside table, took out an exquisite perfume bottle from his pocket, poured a little into the lamp, "Captain Luo, this is the finest violet scented oil, the Egyptians' favorite. Open it.
After using the desk lamp, it will slowly evaporate as the temperature rises. Its smell is very charming, and it is very helpful to soothe the mind and promote sleep!"
"Thank you!" said Robin Hood.
"You're welcome! I'll go first! Bye!" Hong Ming excused himself to Robin Hood and walked out of the room.
After walking out of the hotel, Hong Ming sat in the carriage and glanced at the lighted room upstairs with a cold smile on his face.
He took out his mobile phone and made a call, "Hey! The lamb has entered the pen and will be ready for action in half an hour!"
Robin Hood took off his coat, revealing his strong body, and then stretched out comfortably, only to hear the crackling of his muscles and bones.
He closed the curtains and lit the small lamp in front of the bed.
A faint violet fragrance floated out, which was a bit charming.
Robin Hood clenched his fists, looked at himself in the mirror, and said in a deep voice: "Gao Sheng, we are here! Where will you escape this time?"
In order to maintain plenty of energy, Robin Hood did 500 push-ups and 500 sit-ups before going to bed. He was sweating all over. Then he walked into the bathroom and took a refreshing hot shower.
When I returned to the bedroom, the room was filled with the fragrance of violets.
Robin Hood lay comfortably on the bed, stretched out in a big pose, put his hands behind his head, and stared at the ceiling in a daze.
For a special soldier whose nerves have been tense for a long time, being in a daze is also a luxurious enjoyment.
