Time flies very quickly, and the annual Spring Festival is the blink of an eye.

The achievements of the military factory over the past year can be said to have exceeded Xu Ziling's expectations. He is very satisfied with all this and is even more looking forward to what changes will be made in the coming year.

On New Year's Eve, the family spent the New Year with Yang Ruolan in their hometown. The new wife celebrated the New Year for the first year and was warmly entertained by her grandparents.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the family said goodbye to their grandparents and left the countryside, headed straight to the capital, went to Mr. Yang's house and Yang Haisheng, Zhao Xueqin and his wife gathered, and did not return to Xingcheng until the sixth day of the Lunar New Year.

After returning to Xingcheng, Xu Ziling went to Mr. Huang, Mr. Li, and Commander Lin to pay New Year's greetings, or some people came to his house and were busy until the eve of the Lantern Festival.

Last year, the weather and time issues caused the final weapon system test of the "Flying Eagle" fighter to be unable to be completed. This project is the most important project of their year, and no one dares to neglect it. New Year's work

At the beginning, everyone was busy preparing and just waiting for the weather to be right, they would conduct relevant tests.

Compared to the busy people, Xu Ziling seemed a little idle. The destroyer's plan was developed before the New Year and was handed over through relevant channels. Now he can only wait quietly for experts to verify and evaluate. The "Flying Eagle" fighter jet

After testing, the staff below were already familiar with him, and he couldn't get involved. He didn't like administrative affairs, so he was the only one in the entire military factory.

"There is some latest progress." Wang Jian said to Xu Ziling who came in.

Just now, Wang Jian, who had been paying attention to the leaks in the Technical Exchange Center before the New Year, got the latest situation, so he called Xu Ziling to tell Xu Ziling that when the bored Xu Ziling received the call, he immediately came from the laboratory.

.

“What’s the situation?”

This matter has always been in my mind, but there are too many things some time ago. After I told Wang Jian to pay attention, he didn't care too much. Moreover, Wang Jianyou didn't say anything during these days. At this time, there was a sudden progress.

Somewhat unexpected.

He threw a cigarette for Xu Ziling, stepped forward and lit it for him. Wang Jian, who sat back on the chair, told him:

"Someone saw that person in the United States. The other party appeared more sensitively. People here dared not act rashly and could only monitor."

"Forehead……"

Xu Ziling immediately realized that such information should not be accessible to Wang Jian, because the department responsible for investigating this matter has always only informed the military factory of the progress of the matter, and will never be so detailed. "Who did you ask?"

Wang Jian smiled, "When Brother Kaiming came back last year, he took me to meet the investigation leader, Mao Zhengqi, the director of the 13th Department of Guoan. I got this news from him."

"Haha..." It turned out to be Yang Kaiming's relationship. Xu Ziling was not surprised. With Yang Kaiming's identity and the military factory was the person involved, the other party told this that although there was a suspicion of violations, it was not too much. "There is more

Detailed information?"

"There is no such thing. It's already good if someone tells me this. Besides, the investigators are not us, so why do you need detailed information?"

Wang Jian shook his head.

"Yeah, OK, I get it."

Xu Ziling had some thoughts in his mind, but there was no need to talk to Wang Jian. The two of them chatted again and left Wang Jian's office.

I had always thought that there was something I couldn't figure out about this matter, but now I got this news again, which made him have the idea of ​​investigating it personally. After leaving the office building, he took out the phone and called Yang Kaiming.

"You are very familiar with the director of the 13th Department of Guoan?"

When the phone was answered, he didn't care and asked directly.

"Mao Zhengqi? It turns out that those who went out of our team were injured during a mission, so they were transferred to the National Security Department."

"Oh, then give me his contact information, I'll have something to do with him."

"Okay, I'll send it to your phone. What's the matter to him?" Yang Kaiming was very surprised. He suddenly remembered the incident of going to Guoan with Wang Jian a few years ago, and tried to ask: "It's still the one who steals information and defects to the country.

Something is right?"

"yes."

Xu Ziling said seriously: "I always think this matter is a bit strange, so I want to see the information myself." Then he told Yang Kaiming what he couldn't understand.

Yang Kaiming also had this idea. If he continued to lurk, he would definitely get more technology, but it was exposed so early?

The two of them nagged together for a long time, but in the end they still couldn't figure out the problem and had to give up.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Ziling thought about it and did not go back to the laboratory. Instead, he turned around and went to the parking lot, thinking about going to Guoan to see if he could find something.

The Thirteenth Department of Guoan is a direct subordinate department of the National Security Bureau and is responsible for the confidentiality of some special departments and institutions. Because the Technology Exchange Center was established in Xingcheng, the Thirteenth Department has an independent department here.

After hanging up the phone, Yang Kaiming sent Xu Zilingzi the contact number of Mao Zhengqi, the director of the Thirteenth Department, and the address of their office.

After driving this car and leaving the military factory, Xu Ziling drove according to the address.

More than half an hour later, in an office building in the city, he found thirteen office locations. Looking at a trading company nameplate at the door, he shook his head and laughed.

"I'll look for Director Mao."

When he walked to the front desk, he took out his officer's certificate and handed it to the young girl in charge of reception.

"Please wait."

It seems that there are many people who come to find Mao Zhengqi like him. The young girl did not have any surprise expression. She took Xu Ziling's ID and placed it on a scanner, which should be verifying his identity.

As he thought, Xu Ziling's message soon appeared on the computer in front of the girl. She looked at it and then returned the ID to Xu Ziling: "Get in from here, the first office on the left."

Xu Ziling looked at the direction the girl pointed, took the ID and said thank you, and walked inside.

The door of the first office on the left reads the manager's room. When he knocked on the door, Xu Ziling met Mao Zhengqi, the director of the Thirteenth Division.

If Yang Kaiming hadn't said that he was a former operational officer of Lijian, and seeing Mao Zhengqi in a suit and tie, he would have been like a successful businessman, Xu Ziling would have really not seen that he was once an iron-blooded soldier with a gun.

"Are you surprised? Everyone who knew me or knew my background before, and when I saw me like this, I thought I was really engaged in business."

Mao Zhengqi saw Xu Ziling's flash of surprise, but he saw this expression, and he said it without caring about it.

"Hello, Director Mao."

His words made Xu Ziling feel a little embarrassed and hurriedly walked up.

"What's the name of Director Mao? Just call me Lao Mao. If you give me face, just call Brother Mao. Xu Ziling, but we are so proud."

Mao Zhengqi had known Xu Ziling's name for a long time, but he had never been able to meet him. His coming out of the sword does not mean that he had completely cut off contact with the sword. In addition to his current identity and some things about Xu Ziling, he wants to

Much more than ordinary people know.

He was born in the sword, even if he came out, he had an inextricable feeling for this team. He knew everything Xu Ziling did in the sword. Like the others of the sword, he completely regarded Xu Ziling as a sword.

I have seen my pride with my own eyes now, so I am naturally very enthusiastic.

There was a friendship from the same place, and Mao Zhengqi was particularly enthusiastic. The two sat down in the office and had a great chat. In the end, he took the initiative to ask if Xu Ziling had something to do. Xu Ziling then said his intention.

"This is my dereliction of duty." When talking about this, Mao Zhengqi's face looked a little ugly. "We have not caught such important information abroad."

"You can't blame you for this. It's normal for them to fail occasionally after they are deliberately trying. Moreover, the information is not particularly important. We can come up with better products at any time."

No matter how you say this, Thirteen places have their own responsibility. Seeing Mao Zhengqi’s self-blame, Xu Ziling didn’t know how to comfort him.

Fortunately, he didn't say much, and soon copied a complete copy of the information to him, nor did he say that he needed orders from his superiors.

"Then I will say goodbye and have time to get together."

After getting the things, Xu Ziling was not ready to stay for too long. He had a comrade-in-arms from the same team. After a short period of time of conversation, he also had a good impression of Mao Zhengqi, so he mentioned contacting him at any time before leaving.

"OK!"

Xu Ziling's sword is already a legend. Mao Zhengqi, who is familiar with all this, naturally agreed and insisted on sending him downstairs to watch him drive away.

Leaving from Thirteenth place, seeing that it was still early, Xu Ziling returned to the military factory.

After returning to the military factory, he immediately returned to his office and looked at the information. The information Mao Zhengqi gave him was very neat, from the beginning of the work, to the latest progress, and everything they investigated did not at all.

dew.

It took him two hours to read the entire information. Everything recorded in the information was probably similar to what he knew. It turned out that the part he didn't know was also something irrelevant, and he didn't know it from

I found something useful in resolving my own doubts.

"Does it really take to catch this person to figure it out?"

After reading the information, he could not imagine anything else wrong. He touched his head and found that he felt like he was going crazy.

After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't figure it out. He turned his attention to the recently appeared place of the target person - a small town in the western desert of Nevada.

The surface of the information is that this desert town that should have been ordinary, but it is very unusual. Everyone in the town seems ordinary, but when you look closely, both men and women have a temperament similar to those of ordinary people, which makes the investigators not

Dare to act rashly.

"What's the secret here? Or is it a military secret base?"
