"Why, don't I have the right to use the team's telescope since I am no longer the captain of the military police?"
"Being humble doesn't mean that. Captain Matsui is very strict about ordnance management, and someone was punished for it yesterday..."
"Send the telescope to my house early tomorrow morning!"
"yes!"
Hattori Hikoo hung up the phone hard. Although he felt very uncomfortable, he still had a pleasant look on his face and said to his sister: "Your idea sounds good, I will give it a try tomorrow."
Hattori Mina: "Brother, who did you call just now?"
"Sakai Jiro!"
"If I had known you were going to use a telescope, I wouldn't have let you make the phone call. Why bother looking at other people's faces?"
As she spoke, Hattori Mina got up and walked into the study. After a while, she took out a strip-shaped wooden box and placed it on the coffee table.
Hattori Hikoo: "What is this?"
Hattori Mina pretended to be mysterious and said: "Open it and take a look."
Inside the box was a pure copper monocular telescope. Hattori Hikoo was moved and said, "Where did this come from?"
"I dug it out of the bookcase when I was cleaning up the study in the morning. You can also use this. I tried it and it can see far, far away!"
Hattori Hikoo knew that this German-made Zeiss monocular telescope is 11 centimeters long, can be stretched to 16 centimeters, and has five times magnification. Although it is not as good as the latest high-power telescopes, it has no practical effect at a distance of several hundred meters.
Not much difference.
If it is fixed on an ordinary rifle, to a professionally trained agent, this will be a simple sniper rifle!
Thinking back to Jiang Xinyu's Ford car, in the robbery of the Communist guerrillas in the western suburbs, there were only two clues that could be found, both of which were related to Jiang Xinyu!
Is the shooter Jiang Xinyu?
Hattori Hikoo felt chills in his heart...
"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Hattori Mina asked, looking at her brother who had a gloomy expression.
"Oh, it's nothing. I feel a little tired." Hattori Hikoo put the telescope back into the box and said, "This thing has collection value and may be very valuable in the future."
"No wonder Xinyu locked it in the cabinet."
"He doesn't like things that he cares about so much, so you'd better put them back where they belong."
Hattori Mina muttered: "I'm not someone else..."
Hattori Hikoo: "Mina, you have to understand that respect is the best way for a husband and wife to get along!"
"...I know, I'll put it back in a while."
"now it's right."
Hattori Hikoo glanced at the time, stood up and said, "I'm going back. I'll see you another day."
"Brother, would you like to stay for dinner?"
"No, another day."
After seeing her brother off, Hattori Mina put the telescope back into the cabinet and locked the cabinet door again.
In the evening, the rain gradually subsided.
Jiang Xinyu returned home, smelled the fish fragrance wafting from the kitchen, and said to Hattori Mina: "It's raining so hard, and you still went out?"
"I didn't go out. I stayed at home all day." Hattori Mina reached out and took Jiang Xinyu's briefcase and hat.
"Where did the fish come from if I didn't go out?"
"Brother sent it."
"oh……"
Jiang Xinyu also knew that Hattori Hikoo had been fishing a lot recently, so it was not surprising that he sent a few fish to his sister along the way.
While eating, Jiang Xinyu praised: "To be able to catch such a big fish, Major seems to be an expert in this field."
"When my brother was fifteen, he caught a five-pound tuna!" Hattori Mina said proudly.
"Really? Fifteen years old?"
"Well...actually I'm not even fifteen yet, fourteen and a half to be precise."
“That’s amazing!”
"This is my first time making braised fish. Is it delicious?" Hattori Mina held her chin in her hands and watched Jiang Xinyu eating intently.
Jiang Xinyu took a mouthful of fish and put it in his mouth, and said: "So, you are also amazing. It is the first time you make braised fish and it tastes so good!"
"I made it according to the recipe. I was worried just now that it would taste terrible."
"Some people are born to cook... Mina, why don't you eat it?"
"I'll eat it after a while. My stomach will be full of fishy smell. You don't know how troublesome it is to scrape the fish scales!"
"Mina, how about... hire a servant at home?"
Hattori Mina thought for a while and said, "No, I want to try it myself first."
"Doing laundry, cooking and cleaning up the house is not only trivial but also very hard. Do you really want to try it?"
"Um."
"Oh well."
"I tidied up the study room this morning. Why did you buy so many books? I thought they were just the ones on the bookshelf and in the cabinet."
Jiang Xinyu said calmly: "The bookcase is locked, how did you open it?"
Hattori Mina said proudly: "I found the key hidden in the dictionary. Besides, why are the cabinets at home locked?"
Jiang Xinyu put down his chopsticks and said: "There are many collections in the cabinet, so I locked it... Among them is a monocular telescope, made in Germany. It is an object from the Guangxu period. It will definitely be worth a lot of money in the future!"
He knew very well that with Hattori Mina's curiosity, since she opened the cabinet, she would definitely find the telescope.
Hattori Mina wanted to say that she had never seen a telescope, but due to her personality, she had never been in the habit of lying, so she couldn't help but said: "I thought it was an ordinary telescope, and I almost let my brother take it away for fishing."
Jiang Xinyu's heart skipped a beat and he said with a smile: "Growing this long, this is the first time I've heard that binoculars are used for fishing."
Hattori Mina told what happened, and then said: "My brother also said that this telescope is very valuable and asked me to put it away."
Jiang Xinyu nodded and said, "Major still has vision."
While he was talking to Hattori Mina, he was thinking quickly in his mind. Will Hattori Hikoo become suspicious when he sees this telescope?
——The person who secretly helped Cao Yunfei in the western suburbs was Jiang Xinyu.
In order to avenge his brothers, he dared to lead people to attack the master of the gendarmerie. Jiang Xinyu made a judgment based on this. According to Cao Yunfei's character, he would definitely go into the city and take risks to save people!
It is impossible to stop them, we can only help secretly and help the guerrillas escape as much as possible.
Jiang Xinyu's original intention was just to cover the retreat of the people brought by Cao Yunfei. Unexpectedly, Luotuo and the others could also escape smoothly. This was an unexpected surprise.
The reason why smoke bombs can be thrown so far is actually a child's trick. A dozen rubber bands are tied together between two trees. The smoke bomb is wrapped in the rubber bands and ejected like a slingshot.
This method is based on the catapults used in ancient sieges. As long as it does not deviate from the direction, it is not difficult to throw it to a distance of one or two hundred meters.
