Shadow Spy

Chapter 26 A special job
At noon, Li Junhao and two of his men went to eat. Originally, he wanted to go to the big restaurant, but he was called to the small restaurant by his immediate boss, Miss Hanprey, and was separated from his assistant and secretary.

The small restaurant was only one-third the size of the large restaurant, but only about twenty people were eligible to enter. When Hanprey led him in, there were already more than a dozen people seated.Because it was meal time, everyone did not say hello to each other (this is impolite in Western etiquette), so when they came in, they just nodded as a greeting.

Hanprey didn't mean to introduce these people to him. He nodded in response to everyone and took him directly to a square table on the inside to sit down. He said softly: "Pan Sen, Mr. Stephen Thain will be here soon." I’ll come over and have a meal together to get acquainted.”

"Mr. Thain, the director of our commercial department, wants to ask me something?" Li Junhao asked.

"Maybe he wants to get acquainted!" Hanprey said, "As for whether there is something wrong, I don't know."

While he was talking, Stephen Thain, a sturdy commercial counselor in his early forties, walked in. He smiled and nodded to the diplomats and department heads sitting there, but he walked straight to the table of Hanprey and Li Junhao. .

Seeing that Li Junhao was about to stand up to greet him, Thain stretched out his hand and pressed it down to signal that he didn't have to get up. Then he sat directly opposite Li Junhao and said with a smile: "Hello Pan Sen, I've heard about you for a long time. International politics major at the University of Pennsylvania. Master’s degree, young talent!”

"Mr. Thain, thank you for your compliment!" Li Junhao himself wanted to express his gratitude.

At this time, the waiter came over to ask, and Thain said it was the same as usual. Hanprey ordered sandwiches, salads, and juice, while Li Junhao ordered steak, apple pie, and beer.After a while, the food was served. Thain's portion was pasta, burgers and red wine. It seemed that he often ate this kind of set meal.The three of them started chatting while eating.

"Pan Sen, how are you getting familiar with work now? Are there any difficulties?" Thain asked.

"It's not difficult. I'm currently studying the business situation in Shanghai and Hainan..." Li Junhao explained.

"Very good. If you don't understand anything, you can ask Justin or me directly." Thain's words were very beautiful. "However, there is something that requires a formal diplomat who understands German to come forward. I happen to know Pan Sen. If you have this condition, I wonder if you are willing to take over?"

Um?Li Junhao was stunned. Giving him the task so quickly had something to do with the Germans!But of course there was no hesitation at this time. Of course, he had to accept the first task after joining the company, so he said: "Of course, Mr. Thain, I will do the task you assigned me with my heart..." Whether it can be completed satisfactorily is Another thing, but the attitude at this time must be clear,
Seeing his attitude, Thain was very satisfied, "That's good! Justin will explain this to you later... I believe you can handle the matter!"
-
After a pleasant lunch, Thain left first. He didn't even return to the office. He took a car and left the Consulate General without knowing what he was doing.Li Junhao followed Hanprey back to her office, got a briefing, and then returned to his office.

The content of the briefing was actually very simple. Not long ago, a German-Jewish businessman contacted the Consulate General through an acquaintance of the American businessman, claiming that he had important German military intelligence and wanted to exchange his family’s U.S. immigration status, but requested that the U.S. formal diplomats because he could not trust the promises of ordinary staff.

I don’t know what Commercial Counselor Thain was thinking, but he actually assigned this matter to him!Li Junhao thought about it for a while, but he didn't have any answer, so he decided to do it beforehand! ——
At 01:30 in the afternoon, Li Junhao was about to go out. When he was walking outside, he suddenly remembered something and asked his assistant Brown Kester: "Brown, let me ask you something. As a diplomat, do I have Are you qualified to carry a gun?" "Of course!" Brown stood up and replied, "Our country protects the freedom of individuals to hold guns at home, let alone in this war-torn Far East! It's not just you diplomats, even us These staff members can all apply to carry guns. Look, I have an M1911A1 here!" As he said that, he took out the gun from his suit and put it on the table.

M1911A1, this American-made semi-automatic pistol that has a long lifespan in later generations, is known for its high power. It uses .45 Colt pistol ammunition (11.43mm caliber). Apart from its large size, heavy weight and small ammunition capacity, it has almost no obvious shortcomings. , the multinational armies represented by the US military even used it from World War I to the late 80s. It is considered to be the most successful pistol in the 20th century, not even one of them.

It was also the first time that Li Junhao was able to hold this kind of gun in his hands. The dark gun body and brown grip were natural and comfortable to hold. Although the weight was close to 1.2 kilograms, it was nothing to him now; the gun was nothing. The length and thickness of the handle were just right for his hand shape, but there were only seven bullets, a shortcoming that he couldn't bear.So he asked again: "Brown, is this the only gun?"

"Of course not!" Brown replied, "There are also Colt M1903 and Browning M1910... Oh, by the way, a batch of Browning M1935 was also imported some time ago, but the quantity is small. Not many people arrived…”

Hearing this, Li Junhao became interested and said: "Brown, take me to get a gun. I will be going out to do things soon and need a good gun."

"Okay, boss." Brown obviously liked this kind of thing and jumped up immediately.

Just as he was about to leave, Li Junhao asked another question: "By the way, Miliya, do you also have a gun?"

"Yes, I have an M1910." His secretary Milia Degado said while checking the documents on the table, "What's wrong, boss, do you want to take a look?"

"No need." Li Junhao said, "Oh, I will get the gun later and will go out with Brown. You can stay at home and guard the office!"

"Understood, boss!" Miliya said without raising her head.

In the equipment room of the Logistics Section, Li Junhao received a brand new M1935 as he wished. Even at his request, Brown was given a new M[-], which made him so happy that the driver was laughing while driving.

The Browning High Power Pistol M1935 is made entirely of steel parts and is strong and durable. It is significantly larger in size than traditional Browning pistols and has simple lines, giving it a rough and solid feel.The gun length is 197mm, the barrel is 118mm, the empty weight is 885g, the magazine capacity is 13 rounds, and it uses 9x19mm Parabellum bullets. The effective range is 50 meters, the warhead muzzle velocity is 355 meters/second, and the muzzle kinetic energy reaches 490 joules, which is worthy of its name. High-powered pistol.
