weapons expert

After a whole week, Xu Ziling, Yang Kaiming, and Li Cheng finally saw the sunshine again.

In these days, Xu Ziling has been researching submarines. No matter from the optimization point of view, as far as Xu Ziling knows, the Type 094 submarine has a lot of room for improvement, whether it is hardware or software.

But unlike the No. 051 experimental ship of the South China Sea Fleet, No. 094 is a sequence that is in service and performing missions. Even if Xu Ziling has the courage to change the relevant software system, Captain Li and the others dare not agree, so he is only in some aspects. I gave them some advice, and promised to check it out when I got back to China, but I didn't try to change anything inside.

"Take care of yourself!"

"See you back home!"

After a brief farewell to Captain Li and the others, the three of Xu Ziling boarded the rubber boat and rowed towards the coast. When they left 100 meters away, No. 653, which surfaced, had quietly dived into the water. Not a trace.

They are located on the west coast of northern California, the United States. When he knew that the pick-up location was here, Xu Ziling was silent for a while. He remembered that he had been here once the year before last, and that time the three of them were together. The difference was that The first time I came by plane, but this time I came in this way.

There were still a few hundred meters away from the shore, and Yang Kaiming signaled them to stop.

"what?"

Xu Ziling and Li Chengcheng were somewhat puzzled by his actions.

But as soon as he finished asking, he saw Yang Kaiming looking at the tactical watch. It turned out that he was observing the situation on the shore.

In fact, he didn't need to come, Xu Ziling had already been scanned by the lion. There were indeed people on the shore, but there was only one person. Except for the four people with them, there was no one within a few kilometers.

"Okay, signal."

Looking at the tactical watch, Yang Kaiming quickly confirmed that there was no abnormality, and then asked Li Cheng to issue a signal.

Hearing Yang Kaiming's words, Li Cheng immediately took out his flashlight and flashed it on the shore a few times. The person in charge of responding on the shore was also keeping an eye on the sea. Seeing their signal, he immediately flashed it a few times. The password was correct, and the three continued to paddle.

A few minutes later, Xu Ziling and the others arrived at the shore, and the person in charge of receiving them ran over immediately, saying, "Get in the car with me, the next patrol boat will be here soon." He hurriedly helped them pack the rubber boat.

Knowing that it was not the time to talk, they hurriedly packed up their things, followed behind the responder, and got into a car that he hid in the nearby woods.

The car started, but the responder didn't turn on the lights, and just drove in the dark, and didn't turn on the headlights until the wide road one kilometer away.

"Hello, my name is Lao Hu. I didn't expect to be waiting for you today." The car left the coast, not afraid of being spotted by patrol personnel, and the respondent opened his mouth.

Lao Hu looked to be in his fifties, and his temples were a little gray, but his complexion and clothes were pretty good, and he seemed to be living pretty well in the United States.

"Old Hu, hello."

The three quickly said their code names, and they had a lot of respect for people like Lao Hu.

"By the way, Lao Hu, what did you mean when you said that you will be waiting for us today?" They were all from our own family. After chatting for a few words, everyone became familiar with each other. Xu Ziling remembered what he said just now, and he didn't know what it was. Meaning, isn't the time for the response fixed?

Yang Kaiming and Li Cheng also had the same question. Seeing Xu Ziling's question, the two of them also set their sights on Lao Hu.

"My family didn't give me the exact time for you to come. They just said that today will be the earliest, and it will not exceed three days at the latest. If you haven't arrived after three days, it means that the mission has been cancelled." Lao Hu drove the car, The question to them was very strange, and after answering it, he seemed to think of something again, "This is because of the possibility that you were delayed on the road."

"Oh!"

After listening to his explanation, the three people suddenly realized, and at the same time felt a little ashamed. They had never been exposed to such an infiltration method before, and they didn't even consider whether the voyage would be smooth. This is really empiricism that kills people.

After a two-hour drive, Lao Hu drove a few people through the western mountainous area. In a forest, he changed a car, and then continued to drive east. It took another hour to arrive at Lao Hu. Hu a house here.

The house is a typical American style, all made of wood, and a small yard is surrounded by a fence outside.

"There is no one for several kilometers around here, you can rest assured to live here."

After parking the car in the garage, Lao Hu led several people into the house.

After entering the room and turning on the lights, Xu Ziling and the others could clearly see the traces of cleaning in the room, "Old Hu, you usually don't live here."

"Don't stop." Lao Hu took out a few cans of wine from the refrigerator, gave them to a few people, took a can himself, opened it, took a sip, and then said: "There's no tea here, just drink this. I bought the house a few years ago and used it as a safe house, and occasionally brought my family here for vacation, but I haven’t been here for a long time, and I just cleared it out a few days ago.”

The few people sat down and drank half a can of beer in one big gulp. In the submarine for a week, although the food was good, there were not many tricks, which made them feel that the beer that they don't usually drink very much is incomparably delicious.

"Then what are you doing here?"

This time it was Yang Kaiming who asked the question. Although they talked a lot in the car, they all talked about domestic affairs. They were all nonsense questions. The three of them answered that for those who have not returned to China for many years, of course they would understand him. So he never inquired about Lao Hu. At this time, he heard how many houses he could afford, so Yang Kaiming was naturally a little curious.

"Doctor!" Lao Hu looked smug, and it could be seen that he was very satisfied with his current profession. "According to the professional title in China, I can be regarded as a professor."

"Then how do you do this?"

Several people didn't understand how a doctor could get involved with a spy.

"It's a long story." He had buried this matter in his heart for 30 years, and it was the first time he had someone to confide in. Lao Hu said it like beans pouring out of a bamboo tube. Of course, he hadn't forgotten before he said it. He also took out some bread and threw it to several people, saying that he wanted to fill his stomach first, "I was less than 20 years old..."

Ten minutes later, Xu Ziling and the three of them looked at each other after hearing what Lao Hu had said.

It's such a coincidence that Lao Hu is also from Xingcheng, and he is from the same town as Xu Ziling and Li Cheng, but in a different village. What's more coincidental, he was actually one of the first batch of students of the National University of Science and Technology, but it's just a secret file kind of.

At that time, Lao Hu was less than 20 years old, and he happened to be admitted to the National University of Science and Technology during the college entrance examination, but he did not expect that a secret department took a fancy to Lao Hu, whose parents died at the time, so he discussed with him and asked him if he would like to work for the country. As Lao Hu himself said, at that time, it was an honor to work for the country. He did not understand what he needed to do, so he agreed in a daze.

So he was put on the name of a medical student and sent to the United States.

"What's wrong with you? Is there something wrong with what I said?"

Seeing the strange expressions of the three of them, Lao Hu was puzzled.

"There is a problem, and it's a big problem." Yang Kaiming looked at Xu Ziling and Li Cheng, and answered Lao Hu with a smile, "You said you are from Xingcheng, and so are the three of us, and the two of them are in the same town as you."

Among the four great joys in life, meeting old acquaintances in a foreign land ranks second. Lao Hu is already happy enough to meet fellow countrymen. Unexpectedly, he also met three small fellows, two of which are not a few miles away from his hometown. Yes, such an unexpected surprise made him too excited to speak.

After a long time, I muttered: "This problem is really big." Immediately, he mentioned the name of his hometown to Xu Ziling and Li Cheng, and asked them if they knew it.

Li Cheng has been growing up outside, and joined the army when he grew up. He seldom returned to his hometown, so he didn't know about it. Coincidentally, the two villages are adjacent to each other.

"This is too coincidental!"

When it was said that Lao Hu's village was next to Xu Ziling's village, Yang Kaiming sighed again.

After chatting again, Xu Ziling also knew everything about Lao Hu: After he arrived in the United States, he entered a famous medical school in the United States to study, and at the same time collected some information on science and technology. However, after a few years, the relationship between the two countries began. It got worse. Originally, he had the opportunity to return to China, but in order to carry out his work to the end, he, who had already entered the medical field in the United States, chose to stay.

With the change in the relationship between the two countries, his work became more difficult, and he had to be more careful than before, and also reduced his ties with the country. However, because of his achievements in medical skills, he has successfully become an authentic American. In the end, I chose a Chinese girl to marry and have children, and it has been up to now.

"It will be a full 32 years this year." Lao Hu is also quite emotional about his espionage career, "Fortunately, after finishing this job, I can go home, which is also considered as returning to the roots."

"What about your family? Are they willing to give up their lives here and return to China?"

"They? Why don't you want to go back? Although their nationality is the United States, they are completely descendants of Yanhuang in their bones." Lao Hu's words are full of domineering, and he also expresses his pride in being a descendant of Yanhuang, "I will As a doctor, since 15 years ago, I have not been in charge of intelligence search, and I have really been latent. Over the years, my family has contacted me three times, and the latest one was five years ago. I accept you, I almost forget my own identity."

Lao Hu also had his depression, and the atmosphere became a little heavy as he talked, which made Xu Ziling and the others suddenly feel a little sad.
