Siheyuan: Why is my crossing so ugly?

Chapter 1121 The Background of the KGB

In the empty theater, the conversation between the ghost and Nim continues.

"Nim, what should we do next? The evil spirits have discovered us, and even the Soviet officials know about it. The current situation is very unfavorable to us. Should we retreat immediately?"

  The ghost's tone was full of worry, even a little pleading, but Nim shook his head dejectedly, saying:

"The current situation is no longer something I can decide."

Ghost was furious: "What does this mean?"

  "Haha~" Nim smiled bitterly:

"Ghost, what role do you think I play? To put it bluntly, I am just a babysitter. Let alone those officials above, even if it is Lucifer, do you think he will listen to my orders?"

Nim continued, his tone full of melancholy.

"He bombed the Kremlin, nearly destroyed the entire Ministry of Internal Affairs, and killed the second-in-command of the KGB, throwing the situation in Soviet Russia into chaos.

This makes those bureaucrats in Washington who are full of shit in their heads collectively orgasm! They really want Lucifer to continue to do it! "

  The ghost frowned and asked worriedly:

"Aren't they afraid of completely angering this polar bear and directly triggering World War III?"

"No, this is not a conventional method. The Soviets can't find evidence. Besides, Lucifer is not a Citi member.

And your records have also been destroyed. You are all non-existent people. Even if you are caught or shot, it has nothing to do with Citibank."

  With a long sigh, Nim's voice was full of helplessness:

"This is the plan of that madman Reynard. We have to admit that he is a genius. He has calculated almost everything. We have all become pawns in his hands."

"Fuck! This damn old bald dog!" The ghost threw the cigarette butt on the ground and crushed it into pieces with his feet.

"So, no retreat plan?"

"No."

"Nim, do you think we can really kill the Sha-Ghost?"

Nim smacked his lips and asked, "Ghost, what do you think?"

The ghost was furious: "Damn it, how the hell should I know? Nim, this is my problem!"

"Ghost, you are a person with special abilities, and you have fought him before. Even you don't know, how can you expect me to make an estimate?"

  Upon hearing this, the ghost fell silent. After a long while, he put on his hood again and said in a cold voice:

"Nim, if I die, please take good care of Susan for me. If you dare to let her join the CIA, I will crawl out of hell and strangle you to death!"

  A moment later, with Nim alone in the theater, he lit another cigarette and muttered to himself:

"You freaks, all deserve to die!"

It was noon, Lubyanka Square, KGB headquarters, the Yellow Building.

6th floor, Nikonov's office.

At this moment, Du Weiguo was sitting in his seat, even putting his feet on the desk in an unpresentable manner.

"To be honest, Natasha, the officials here are really fake. On the surface, they pretend to be simple and hard-working, but in private, they live the life of wealthy landlords.

Du Weiguo said this not to nitpick, but from his genuine feelings.

Nikonov, the head of the KGB, a leader-level official, was one of the most powerful people in the Soviet Union.

However, his office is extremely simple, even shabby.

The area is not small at all, it is very spacious, about 40 square meters, but it is empty and poor inside.

Apart from the desk and chair, there are only two filing cabinets, a set of sofas and coffee tables, and a floor-standing clothes rack.

All the furnishings are made of the cheapest and most common materials, and the tables and chairs have even lost their paint and patina because they have been used for so many years.

Not to mention the floor, I don’t know how many years it has been used. Although it has been wiped very clean, the green paint on the surface is mottled.

The only valuable thing in the office is probably the old Baltic radio produced in the 40s on the coffee table.

This shabby environment is extremely shabby, even worse than the office of any village official in the later Heavenly Dynasty.

However, these are just appearances.

Just a few days ago, Du Weiguo stayed in the People’s Hotel on the edge of the Red Square, which was specially prepared for senior cadres.

Later, accompanied by Miss Hu, he had the privilege of visiting the supply and marketing store specially for cadres, which is the legendary cadre store.

There, Du Weiguo was given a small stab in the butt and his eyes were opened.

Even though he had lived two lives as a human being, and especially had experienced the explosion of material life and the extreme abundance of material goods in his later life, he was still deeply shocked.

Let’s just say that the material supplies in these places bring together specialties from all over the world, covering all aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Even when compared with the top shopping malls famous for luxury goods in later generations, it is not inferior at all and can be said to be extremely extravagant.

The key point is that the things in these places are cheap, basically at a very low price, so cheap that it is outrageous. Some things are even provided for free.

Of course, the premise of all this is that you must have an identity that matches it. Ordinary people are not qualified at all and cannot even enter.

The rich live in luxury, while the poor freeze to death on the streets. Privilege is a by-product of class; it is everywhere and exists forever.

Perhaps, the reason why the once powerful Soviet Union collapsed overnight was closely related to these factors.

This is getting off topic, let’s get back to the topic.

“Wesley, the situation you mentioned does exist and is quite common, but Comrade (Chairman) is definitely not such a person.

His private life is also very simple. He has no pursuit of these material things and is completely focused on his work. "

It can be seen that Natasha has great respect for Nikonov and is defending him in her words and deeds.

"Heh~" Du Weiguo laughed. He actually believed what Natasha said.

Having reached Nikonov's level, he has indeed transcended these low-level material needs because what he pursues is ultimate power.

The kind of authority that, at the mere sound of a command, millions of people would bow down and obey, an authority that was nearly omniscient and omnipotent, comparable to the power of God.

"Changing the subject, Natasha, do you think that CIA Avengers will accept the challenge?"

Speaking of this familiar yet unfamiliar name, Du Weiguo's tone was somewhat playful.

Damn, I didn’t expect that there would actually be a “Women’s Federation” in this world, and judging from the situation, it was established to target him.

"Yes. Judging from their style of doing things, these guys are very arrogant and conceited, and they act recklessly, so they will definitely accept the challenge."

Natasha's tone was firm, and contained hatred that was difficult to conceal.

These lawless guys from the Avengers not only bombed the Kremlin, but also used Moscow as a battlefield, which made every Soviet Russian who was qualified to know about it furious.

Du Weiguo nodded in agreement.

"Well, that's a good analysis. Where do you think they will choose the battlefield? This building, on the way back, or Nikonov's house?"

Natasha answered without hesitation: "I think they will launch a surprise attack on our way back."

Hearing her conclusion, Du Weiguo asked without comment: "Oh? Reason?"

When it comes to intelligence analysis, which is Natasha's area of ​​expertise, she was not vague and replied in a serious tone:

“First, there are two battalions stationed near Huanglou, with nearly a thousand troops, plus our A unit directly under the Security Committee, which also has several hundred people.

Although ordinary people are not taken seriously by people with special abilities, such a huge armed force cannot be ignored after all."

Having said this, Natasha paused for a moment, looked in the direction of Miss Hu, and continued meaningfully:

“I am not a person with special abilities, and I don’t have a deep understanding of them, but I believe that someone as extraordinary as Miss Hu, who can defeat a thousand enemies alone, must be extremely rare.

Therefore, the CIA's Avengers will not choose our most advantageous home turf to fight, and the possibility of attacking the Huang Building can be basically ruled out."

In Natasha's words, it was very obvious that she was trying to please Miss Hu, it was even a bit flattering.

She is smart, perceptive, ambitious, and knows exactly how to climb the ladder.

Now, even her boss Nikonov has become Du Weiguo's henchman, so of course she has to cling tightly to this golden thigh that is so close to her.

After several times of getting along, Natasha was convinced that Miss Hu's influence on Du Weiguo was enormous, surpassing anyone else, even Yang Caiyu, and she was unique. Even if she worked hard, it might not be as good as Miss Hu's light words.

The key point is that this unbelievably young and beautiful woman, who acts in an extremely domineering manner, is herself a top super-powered person, and her overall combat power is even not inferior to Du Weiguo.

Therefore, Natasha, who is good at scheming, will naturally start licking when she finds an opportunity.

"Heh~"

But who is Miss Hu? How could she be convinced by a few words? He sneered and was about to start a fight.

Fortunately, she noticed the look Du Weiguo gave her in time, pouted her lips, but finally held back.

In order to thank Miss Hu for saving his face, Du Weiguo took out his cigarette case and lit two cigarettes. Then he flicked his fingers and one of them shot towards her like an arrow.

Miss Hu raised her hand nonchalantly, and her two jade-like fingers firmly grasped the burning cigarette.

He held the cigarette between his lips casually, exhaled the smoke slowly, and gave Du Weiguo a proud look that said, "You'd better know your place."

After showing their affection in an inhuman way, Du Weiguo turned to Natasha.

"Well, you're right. Hu Da is indeed very powerful. But Natasha, don't forget that among the Avengers, there is a guy who can remotely detonate the air. He can directly blow up a building."

Hearing this question, Natasha looked grateful.

She realized that Du Weiguo had guessed her thoughts and was deliberately making trouble so that she could make her presence felt in front of Miss Hu.

“I have also considered this situation, and I have also carefully studied the investigation report on the explosion site at the Ministry of Internal Affairs headquarters.

His ability is to compress air to the extreme in a very short time, causing molecular friction to generate high heat and cause an explosion, with an effect comparable to that of trinitrotoluene."

Du Weiguo listened very carefully. He was somewhat surprised. He did not expect that Lucifer's core ability could be analyzed out so quickly. He could not help but admire the professionalism and strength of the KGB.

Even Miss Hu showed some interest in her eyes, and for the first time she took seriously Natasha, or the KGB's capabilities.

This is not the end. Natasha continued to explain in an orderly manner:

"His ability can be controlled and released remotely, but the distance is unlikely to exceed 500 meters, and the current warning range of the Huanglou is a full 1000 meters, so there will definitely be no strangers~"

"stop!"

Du Weiguo's eyes suddenly lit up and he interrupted her: "Natasha, how do you know that his control distance is no more than 500 meters?"

  Natasha was proud in her heart, but her face remained unchanged. She replied in a deep voice:

"After the explosion at the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the entire Kremlin was under martial law within three minutes. During this period, no one left. Afterwards, we checked again and again and confirmed that no one had left through the wall."

Du Weiguo interrupted her again:

"Wait a minute, what about the underground secret passage? There can't be a secret passage in the Kremlin, right?"

Natasha nodded:

“Yes, there are secret passages in the Kremlin, and there are more than one, there are three in total, and we know the underground routes and exits of these secret passages.

Five minutes after the explosion, our undercover agents under the Security Committee had already rushed to the exits of all the secret passages, but~"

Having said this, Natasha suddenly stopped again, the smug look in her eyes could no longer be concealed no matter what.

  Du Weiguo frowned and was about to scold when he heard Miss Hu scolding him coldly:

"What are you bragging about? Change your bad habit of keeping people in suspense right now, or I won't need you to tell me anything, I'll just pick your brains out."

"Yes, yes, Ms. Hu, I, I understand."

Natasha's expression suddenly froze, and she admitted her mistake awkwardly. She didn't dare to be clever anymore and explained honestly.

"Among the three secret passage exits, only the one connected to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, located at the Red October Factory, had someone come out, and they killed our colleagues.

This exit is 487 meters away from the explosion site. If he can control it beyond this distance, it is totally unnecessary~"

After hearing this, Du Weiguo understood everything. Lucifer's detonation distance could not exceed 500 meters.

Otherwise, there would be no need for him to take the risk, run into the Kremlin, and then escape through the secret passage.

Of course, there is another possibility that Lucifer was not among those who killed people and left through the secret passage, but the possibility is not high.

The key is the timing of the explosion, which was so precise, it happened exactly when Du Weiguo was carried up the stairs.

Du Weiguo's extraordinary ability of perspective can eliminate the possibility of other people observing through their eyes, so the only possibility left is spatial sensing.

If he could really detonate the explosion from a very long distance, then there would be no need to wait for Du Weiguo to go upstairs. It would be much safer to detonate directly in the hall, leaving almost no room for hiding.

After thinking this through, Du Weiguo was instantly shocked and his eyes lit up terrifyingly.

Damn, it can’t be more than 500 meters, so it is within his attack coverage range and also within Shenwu’s ability, not to mention Miss Hu.

However, in addition to being excited, Du Weiguo also gained a deeper understanding of the KGB's capabilities.

This is the background of the world's number one spy organization, the KGB. It seems that there is no secret that they don't know, and there are countless hidden cards.

He is simply omniscient and omnipotent.

"Well, it's okay. I've known you for so long, and you're finally of some use."

Miss Hu spoke in a proud tone and gave a light compliment. This was the first time she had made a positive comment about Natasha.

Du Weiguo, who was familiar with her, knew that Miss Hu was not as calm as she appeared, and she was also deeply shocked by the KGB's terrifying ability to obtain intelligence.

"Nikonov's residence is also like Huanglou, with a dragnet set up, right?"

  Natasha didn't dare to keep it a secret any longer:

"Yes, two battalions of Troop A and a motorized independent regiment of the Fourth Division were deployed near the President's residence to assist in the defense."

Du Weiguo was not stupid either. He realized something immediately and raised his eyebrows slightly: "So, this is a deliberate attempt to force them to fight along the way?"

  Upon hearing this, Natasha's eyes could not help but flicker, and her pupils fluctuated, but she still gritted her teeth and told the truth:

"Yes, Wesley, I'm very sorry, we can't let them do it in Lubyanka, and there are people living near the chairman's residence~~"

"Okay, you don't have to say anymore, I understand." Du Weiguo interrupted her impatiently.

This is actually easy to understand. The Lubyanka Yellow Building is both the headquarters and the face of the KGB. Of course, they don't want and cannot be blown up.

Besides, there are more than a thousand key personnel working in the eight-story Huang Building, which covers an area of ​​tens of thousands of square meters. The KGB cannot afford the loss.

As for Nikonov's residence, it is located in the south of Moscow, close to the Moscow River, in a secluded manor area called Zavidovo, which is also the gathering place of high-ranking Soviet officials and their families.

This place is equivalent to the harem and forbidden area of ​​the entire Soviet Union. Of course, it cannot be used as a battlefield by super-powered people.

Du Weiguo flicked his cigarette butt and his tone became a little cold:

"Since you're forcing the Avengers to fight me on the road, I'm sure you've already chosen the specific battlefield. Tell me, where is it?"

Although Natasha was terrified when her plot was exposed, she also felt relieved. After all, this matter had to be told sooner or later.

"Yes, yes, we did predict in advance that there are four locations suitable for them to launch an attack, namely the southern exit of Kadashevskaya Bridge and Paveletsky Avenue~~"

Paveletsky Railway Station, hotel in front of the station.

Four engineers from the Khimki State Mechanical Plant, who were visiting Moscow on business, slowly walked into the door of the guesthouse.

Moscow has been under lockdown since yesterday, so the sudden arrival of these unfamiliar faces, especially a black man, was very abrupt and quite suspicious.

However, the guesthouse was very quiet at the moment. There was only a fat aunt waitress with a dull expression and cloudy eyes at the front desk.

"Stay in a hotel?"

"Yes, just one night?"

"Want to have dinner here?"

"Is there borscht for dinner?"

Upon hearing this, the fat lady's eyes suddenly became bright and lively. She directly threw the room keys to them and said quickly:

"5th floor, room 04, 05. The escape route is in the utility room at the east end."
