Far away in Moscow

Chapter 290 A Tombstone

Someone behind him fired a shot, and the horse bandits seemed to linger at the edge of the forest for a while, and then rushed into the forest roaring, chasing after them.

It was dark outside, and it was completely dark in the woods.Hu Yi ran blindly in the dark, staggering a few steps, and the horse bandits recognized their positions by listening to the sound, and they often wrestled.

After stumbling and running for tens of meters, Hu Yi was already out of breath, and only then realized that the backpack on his shoulder was very cumbersome.

Huh?He was taken aback for a moment, this night was a mess, and his mind was also muddled.Didn't you hand over the bag to Yabalov before you left?Where did this bag come from?
I don't have time to think about it, it's not mine anyway.Hu Yi casually took off the bag and threw it aside, spread his legs and continued to run.

After running for an unknown amount of time, the sound of footsteps behind him gradually moved away, and there was a faint light in front of him, as if he had come to the edge of the forest.He didn't dare to stay longer, and rushed to the edge of the forest in one breath, leaning on a tree to breathe heavily.

At the foot is a sloping earth slope, and there are several houses not far away.Before he had time to look more, the horse bandit suddenly fired several shots in the forest, wondering if he saw himself.

Hu Yi hurriedly bent down and wanted to run down the slope, but he never thought that it was raining here in the middle of the night, and the soil was soft and slippery. He couldn't get a foothold, so he kicked and slid down, rolling all the way.

no more.Hu Yi felt as if he fainted for a moment, but he didn't know how long.One hour? 1 minute?Or just a second?
No matter how long it was, he was running out of strength now.He could only lie on the ground limply on his back, letting the rain wash away the mud on his body.

The last time I felt so exhausted was probably the snowy night when Building No. 6 of Youda caught fire!In order to find Xiang Nan's whereabouts, he stayed up all night.

But that time it was just a torment in my heart, but now I have exhausted my physical strength.Hu Yi blew out the rain from his lips prostratedly, turned his head to the side weakly, and immediately closed his eyes with a wry smile.

unlucky.There was actually a tombstone next to him, and there were a few bouquets of flowers in front of the monument, which was really unlucky.Could it be to foretell my destination?Could it be that these horse bandits are here to kill me?

But why?Obviously they are the villains.And I just want to get back what belongs to me!Get my stuff back from a bunch of bastards!
Hu Yi shouted loudly in his heart, opened his eyes and gasped for a few moments, then stood up abruptly, and when he turned around, he saw three distressed horse bandits just got out of the woods, standing on the slope and pointing at him and yelling loudly. One is Yuri.

Hu Yi ran towards the nearest house with his legs filled with lead, and someone shot from behind, and the bullet seemed to hit the tombstone.

"Don't shoot!" someone yelled.Hu Yi took the opportunity to hide behind the house, and the three horse bandits slid down the slope, and then disappeared in the rain.

Hu Yi held his breath and secretly peeked out to observe. He could only see Yuri hiding behind a tree with his head shrunk. The other two did not know where they were.Looking at the distance behind him, the houses are getting denser. If he can run there smoothly, the chance of escape will be great.

Take a gamble!He took a deep breath, swished out of the corner of his hiding place, and ran as fast as he could to the other house.

"There!" someone yelled behind him.

Hu Yi ran to the side of the house regardless, and was about to turn to the back to hide, when half of his head poked out from the corner.

It's a black hair.

Hu Yi felt a sudden chill in his heart.

"Don't move!" The black hair stepped out of the corner with a fierce step, and pointed the gun at Hu Yi who was one meter away.

"I'll fuck you!" Hu Yi's eyes were red, and with the last of his strength he jumped forward, threw Heimao to the ground, and threw the pistol far away.

Regardless of the pain, he got up on his hands and feet and continued to run. Just after running a few steps, he saw someone looking furtively from behind another house in front of him.Turning around and trying to escape to the main road, there are also shadowy people approaching from a distance.

Hu Yi was dizzy, and staggered away in a direction where there was no one there. After only a dozen steps, he heard several gunshots, and one of the bullets hit him very close to his feet.

Hu Yi's legs went limp, and he staggered two steps and fell to the ground. There were footsteps approaching quickly all around. It seemed that he really couldn't escape this time.

"Here it is! It's this kid!" Someone on the left quickly approached.

"You guys, don't move!" Someone from the right also rushed over.The two groups of people confronted each other with guns in the rain, and fell into a stalemate for a while.

So they weren't in the same group?Hu Yi couldn't figure out the situation, so he took the opportunity to lie on the ground to adjust his breathing and gather strength for himself.Peeking to the left, Yuri was less than ten meters away from him, and the other two horse bandits followed closely behind him.

"Police!" The person on the right spoke first: "Who are you?"

Hu Yi was overjoyed, and hurriedly turned his head to look to the right, but was immediately disappointed.

I saw six or seven disheveled men, women and children standing scattered more than ten meters away. Some were tall and some were short, some were fat and some were thin. the man.

Looking forward again, Hu Yi couldn't help laughing out loud.The top of his head is now facing the tombstone he saw just now, and the flowers on the ground are no more than five or six meters away from him.After going around in a big circle, he ran back again by accident. It was God's will, God's will.

"Aha, I misunderstood, we are also law enforcement officers." Someone on the left spoke, but it was Yuri.He took out a small wallet from his pocket and flashed it to the opposite side, then pointed at Hu Yi who was lying on the ground: "The special agent of the Security Bureau is catching criminals, and they chased here overnight from Moscow."

Hu Yi was furious, and was about to open his mouth to distinguish, when he heard the fat black hair ask: "What criminal?"

"He is a horse bandit." Yuri shrugged: "Suspected of smuggling and selling illegal goods, participating in organizing terrorist attacks, and just stealing vehicles and robbing money. Thank you for your assistance."

"Haha! I'm not! They're the horse bandits!" Hu Yi laughed back angrily, propped himself up and sat on the ground, and turned his head to look at the chubby black hair: "I'm Chinese! The horse bandits you've seen are as big as Chinese person?"

"Comrades, don't be fooled by this cunning fellow. He is not only an out-and-out horse bandit, but also a subordinate of a notorious mafia boss." Yuri stared at Hu Yi coldly, and spoke sternly He took a step forward: "Just an hour ago, he drove a car with a Chechen license plate to resist arrest and attempted to murder our colleagues."

"You fart! You are the horse bandit! You robbed us!" Hu Yi regained some strength, and slowly got up to wipe off the rain on his face: "Officers! I'm just a Chinese businessman selling pants, and I was robbed by them goods!"

The chubby black hair probably couldn't tell which of them was lying, so he hesitated for a while.Yuri put the gun in his arms generously, spread his arms and walked towards Hu Yi, and shouted to the people opposite with a smile: "Comrades, can I take him away? I'm sorry that the shooting just now disturbed your dreams, please Go back and rest."

No one spoke, and the group on the right seemed to acquiesce to his proposal.

"Don't come here!" Hu Yi took a few steps back subconsciously, and shouted back: "Officer! I'm telling the truth! They're horse bandits! I'm just an ordinary—"

Before finishing a sentence, his eyes suddenly rested on the tombstone next to him again.

It's still raining heavily, but the sky has gotten a lot brighter.Now Hu Yi could see clearly that it was a big tombstone.

Strictly speaking, it is more like a monument, because there is a bust on top of the stele.

The owner of the statue is a soldier, with a heroic posture, looking into the distance, and wearing a hat to protect his ears.

It was a tank soldier's hat.

It was as if a flash of lightning had flashed before Hu Yi's eyes, he was stunned for a while, and shouted loudly: "Andre!"

No one spoke up.

"Andrei Mikhailov!" he called again.

"He's not here." The chubby black hair looked at him suspiciously: "Who are you?"

"Don't be fooled!" Yuri yelled sharply, "He's cunning!"

"I am... My name is Anton! I have been to this town!" Hu Yi couldn't control the trembling of his body due to overdrawn exhaustion and sudden excitement: "This is...Abalensk! I...is your friend... They... are horse bandits..."

"Our friend? When did you come to Abalensk?" The slightly fat black hair looked gloomy, and gestured to both sides. Immediately, several people dispersed and surrounded Yuri and the two horse bandits from a distance.

"A few years ago...2005...four years ago! Fat Andre...competition day...challenge...drinking..." Hu Yi pressed his head with both hands, speaking incoherently: "Officer Andre drank too much that night...he must have drunk again last night More..."

"That's right, he drank too much again." A strong woman leaned over and frowned at him, and whispered to the fat black hair: "Jima, there is indeed such a thing. One year on the night of the competition day, a The Chinese came to town looking for another Chinese. But... I remember it was a young lad who looked at least ten years younger than him."

"I'm just old! I saw you at the police station! I can't remember your name! But I remember a lot of Andre here, a lot! And I still remember him—" Hu Yi stretched out his hand and pointed to the distance Monument, two lines of tears slid down the cheeks with the rain.At this moment, his mind was blank, but he recited the words he had only heard once almost verbatim:
"Andrei Andreevich Ivanov, Lieutenant Tank Driver of the Soviet Red Army! The only combat hero from Abalensk in the Great Patriotic War! In October 1941 in the defense He died heroically in the battle of Moscow! He is buried in the small... small..."

"Little Yaroslavets." The black-haired Jima and the woman said in unison.

"Yes! Little... Yaroslavets!" Hu Yi trembled and continued to backtrack: "He is only...26 years old! He is the eternal pride of you... the hearts of the people of the town!"

"Director Jima, I think he did come here a few years ago." A young man pointed his gun at Yuri and turned his head to look at Hu Yi carefully: "That night, Deputy Director Andrei asked us to drive him back to Moscow overnight , I should not admit my mistake."
