Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 642, First Business Flight

The two chatted as they drove towards the city, and stopped at the gate of a yard.

It was already midnight.

The yard is just a very ordinary yard, and there is someone guarding the door.

Inside is also a very ordinary Cantonese-style courtyard.

After the car stopped, the lights in one of the houses immediately came on, and a middle-aged man came out.

Looking at Li Baoguo and the other man, he asked, "Baoguo, have you brought the people back?"

Li Baoguo nodded: "Team leader, the person has been picked up."

Seeing Yang Xiaole coming over, he briefly introduced him: "This is Shen Yuanfeng, Team Leader Shen, and this is Comrade Yang Xiaole."

"Hello, Team Leader Shen!"

"Hello, Comrade Yang Xiaole!"

The two saluted each other.

Shen Yuanfeng is about thirty-seven or thirty-eight years old and very thin.

He wore a long-sleeved sweatshirt on the upper body and large shorts on the lower body.

Shen Yuanfeng withdrew his hand and said with a smile: "Have you eaten? If not, eat something first, and we will have a simple meeting later."

Yang Xiaole shook his head: "No, I've already eaten. Let me change my clothes first! These clothes are so hot."

It’s cold in the north, but the temperature here can be very high.

"Hey, okay! Come with me!"

Seeing this, Shen Yuanfeng smiled and nodded, then took him to one of the rooms, opened the door and turned on the light.

There is a simple wooden house inside.

Yang Xiaole put his things down and changed into summer clothes.

After coming out, Li Baoguo and Shen Yuanfeng sat on the chairs in the room.

"sit down!"

Shen Yuanfeng looked at him and gestured.

Yang Xiaole sat down, took the other person's cigarette, lit it and smoked it.

Shen Yuanfeng looked at him, sized him up and asked with a smile, "Xiao Yang! That's what I'll call you. I heard from Baoguo that you and he were classmates?"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole looked at Li Baoguo.

The other party had already said it when we were changing clothes just now. This kind of relationship usually needs to be explained.

Then he retracted his expression, smiled and nodded: "Yes, it is indeed a classmate."

Shen Yuanfeng smiled and said, "Don't be so serious. For people who do our kind of work, it's best not to have too strong a military vibe. It's very eye-catching."

Yang Xiaole smiled and said, "Okay!"

Shen Yuanfeng nodded slightly and said, "Do you know the content of this mission?"

"I don't know. I just received an order to cooperate with you to complete the mission."

Yang Xiaole did not admit this tentative question. He was not sure how much say Lao Wang had here.

"Well! Then let me tell you, our operation this time requires us to go abroad. There is a flight to Pakistan tomorrow morning, and there is only one flight a week.

This operation was to retrieve a very important document and a person...

There are four people going this time, three of us, and one is Comrade Wang Xia, who has not arrived yet. Comrade Wang Xia is proficient in many minority languages ​​in the Arab region, as well as English and Urdu in Pakistan. ..."

Yang Xiaole was there listening to what the other person was saying.

Overall, it’s similar to what Lao Wang said.

It’s just that there’s one more person who needs to be picked up.

The Wang Xia mentioned by the other party could not go out through formal channels because of special circumstances.

He had already arrived in Pakistan through other channels in advance and would be waiting for the three of them there.

The reason for this is, of course, that we cannot leave too many records of coming in and out, so as not to arouse suspicion.

And she went there in advance to understand the specific situation.

I guess the name Wang Xia in this may not be real.

After talking about the whole thing, Shen Yuanfeng said, "This is the general situation. It's getting late. Let's go to bed first. We'll talk about the details when we get there. If you leave tomorrow, you are not allowed to bring anything except your passport, ordinary documents and personal clothing."

Yang Xiaole nodded, then thought of something and said, "By the way, did they tell me that I might need to act alone this time?"

Shen Yuanfeng said after hearing this: "We already know the situation. The comrades in the Northeast Bureau need you to contact them on a single line. We know this rule. If necessary, you can act on your own."

He treated Yang Xiaole as a normal underground worker.

After hearing this, Yang Xiaole said nothing more.

Although they belong to a large system, each place has its own department.

All are independent of each other.

Only when you reach a certain level can you know the news of each branch.

I have said almost everything that needs to be said.

Shen Yuanfeng then took Li Baoguo out of the room, and Li Baoguo didn't say a word during the process.

Yang Xiaole watched them leave.

I closed the door and was planning to go to Hong Kong Island, but after thinking it over I didn't go.

It's already one o'clock now, and it will take time to go back and forth.

There is not much to say, and it seems there is nothing important to say.

I went back to the room, got on the bed and lay down directly.

I put down the mosquito net and went to sleep.

……

Around six o'clock the next morning, Shen Yuanfeng got up and woke him up.

Yang Xiaole opened the door and greeted Shen Yuanfeng standing at the door with a smile: "Team Leader Shen!"

"Well, you didn't get enough rest yesterday! You can sleep for a while after you get on the plane. The journey is not short. It will take more than ten hours."

Yang Xiaole smiled nonchalantly and said, "Team Leader Shen, it's okay. We usually get up at this time to practice."

"Well, that's good! Let's take a shower and have a meal, then we'll go to the airport."

"it is good!"

Yang Xiaole agreed, went back to the room, took out his things, and went to the sink to wash up.

While I was busy, I saw Li Baoguo coming in carrying something.

"Xiao Le, try the rice rolls here, they're delicious."

Yang Xiaole was washing her face. Hearing this, she looked up and said with a smile, "I can do anything!"

He wrung the towel and hung it on the rope in the yard.

Followed the other person to the living room.

Shen Yuanfeng was reading a newspaper there. When he saw the two of them coming back, he put down the newspaper and said, "Let's eat. After dinner, we can talk about the things we need to pay attention to in the past."

The three of them sat down and started eating there.

Shen Yuanfeng was explaining the situation and telling people what to pay attention to when going outside.

There are actually a lot of rules.

Because a slight carelessness can bring unimaginable disaster to the entire team.

Yang Xiaole and Li Baoguo had just escaped and were also distant relatives of Shen Yuanfeng.

Therefore, their passports and other documents had to be destroyed when they arrived at their destination, and they had to hide in secret. The rest of the action could only depend on the cooperation of their comrades over there.

Life and death are unpredictable.

Yang Xiaole looked at Li Baoguo.

Forget about myself, but the other party is the boss’s child!

Just like that?

But there were some things he wasn't suitable to ask.

The relationship between the three is that they are all Shen Yuanfeng's cousins.

"This is your information. You must memorize it and destroy it before you get off the plane. And you can't show it to anyone else."

After Shen Yuanfeng finished speaking, he handed him a document.

As for the fact that Li Baoguo didn't give it to him, it was obvious that he had already given it to him in advance. Yang Xiaole took the thing and looked at it. The information on it was very complete, introducing his experience since birth.

Naturally, my birthplace is still Beijing.

After becoming an educated youth, I ran away secretly while my parents were still working on a farm in the mainland.

The name was also changed: Yang Tianzheng.

What an ugly name.

Li Baoguo's real name is Li Weiqi.

While thinking, Shen Yuanfeng said: "Okay, time is running out, pack up your things, check everything, and go to the airport."

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole put away the things and said, "Okay!"

Then the three of them went back to get their things and checked them one by one. They took what they could take and left what they couldn't take here.

Of course, you don’t need to bring a quilt or a cotton coat.

The temperature in Pakistan is very high now, and it is also summer in Yemen, so you only need to bring a thin jacket instead of thick clothes.

After checking around and making sure everything was alright, he put the things away.

Each person has a cloth bag.

Then we got on the car to the airport.

After waiting there for more than an hour, I finally got on the plane to Pakistan.

Yang Xiaole watched there.

This was his first time to take a mainland flight openly!

Li Baoguo thought he had never been on one before, so he laughed and said, "You've never been on one before? When the plane takes off, don't be nervous, just relax."

Yang Xiaole smiled and nodded when he heard this: "Okay, I understand."

There were not only the three of them on the plane at that time, there were quite a few other people, some of whom were obviously on business trips at public expense.

The rest are obviously overseas Chinese.

However, only one-third of the people were on the plane, and even though this flight only operated once a week, it would not be full.

After all, there are very few people going abroad nowadays.

Shen Yuanfeng was sitting behind them and reminded them, "Sleep a little longer. We don't know what will happen when we get there!"

The two understood after hearing this.

In fact, it is to remind them that there are overseas Chinese here, and some of them may have problems.

Worried that they will talk too much and cause problems.

It is possible that these people might hear some information they shouldn't know from the conversation between the two.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole and the other person agreed and sat there quietly.

The journey is indeed long.

During the trip, we made a brief stop in Yunnan Province and Dhaka Airport in East Pakistan, an enclave of Pakistan.

After about ten hours, the plane landed at the airport in Yi City in the evening.

There is a time difference of about 3 hours between the two sides.

It was exactly evening when we arrived at the place.

The two followed Shen Yuanfeng off the plane, and the three of them came to the exit. At this time, there were quite a few people here to pick them up.

After Shen Yuanfeng came out, he searched around.

He fixed his eyes on a woman holding a sign.

He was about the same age as Shen Yuanfeng, less than 40 years old, and was wearing clothes similar to those of the locals.

It's basically the same as Indian clothing, except that it's not as fancy and the colors are relatively monotonous.

This is also relative.

Compared with the mainland, it is really too expensive.

Shen Yuanfeng winked at the two of them and walked towards them.

He changed his previous Cantonese accent and greeted me in another fluent accent.

The two of them had a brief conversation.

Yang Xiaole raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

His previous life was Huizhou.

The other party spoke authentic Huyang dialect, which is unlike Cantonese and Chaoshan dialect, and is spoken by many overseas Chinese.

Not to mention people from other places, even he, a native of Huizhou, felt his head buzzing when he heard this conversation.

It seems to belong to a small branch of Wu language.

The two exchanged a few words, and Shen Yuanfeng smiled and said to them, "Let's go!"

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole knew that he had found the contact person.

Following the other party, we arrived outside the airport. It was basically the same as the mainland. The airport was very dilapidated and the road outside was not much better.

The other party took three people and found a donkey cart. After they got on the cart, the driver took them to their destination.

This place is very similar to the current urban areas in the mainland.

In Yang Xiaole's opinion, it was very shabby.

The houses are not well planned, and many wooden houses are built among various brick and tile houses. Various electric poles are scattered all over the streets.

However, there are also some ancient buildings that are like landmarks, as well as a small number of castles.

In the car, the few people didn't talk much. After more than 20 minutes, the donkey cart stopped at the door of a small courtyard of a mud house in the suburbs.

There are quite a few houses scattered around there, surrounded by farmland and woods.

A rural scene.

After giving the money, the donkey cart master left.

After watching the person leave, the woman went outside to take a look, then closed the door and came back.

"Let's go in and talk!"

Several people went into the house together.

It is very similar to the mud houses in rural areas of the south.

The woman took off her scarf and said to the group, "Comrade Shen Yuanfeng, welcome!"

"Comrade Wang Xia, thank you for your hard work. These two are our comrades, Yang Tianzheng and Li Weiqi."

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole and the other person shook hands with each other.

"Hello, Comrade Wang Xia!"

They exchanged pleasantries.

Wang Xia asked, "Have you eaten yet? I made food for you. Do you want to eat first?"

Shen Yuanfeng shook his head, looked outside and said, "Comrade Wang Xia, let's talk about the mission first! There's no rush to eat, we had lunch on the plane at noon."

Hearing this, the other party looked at the three of them and nodded.

"Okay, sit down! I'll pour you a glass of water!"

As he spoke, he went to get three cups and poured some water, which had been cooled in advance, for several people.

You must drink water.

Several people drank a lot of it.

Watching the few people put down their teacups, Wang Xia looked outside and whispered, "Comrades from Yemen have sent news that our comrades have entered the mountainous area at the junction of South Yemen and North Yemen and have not come out yet. The enemy has armed forces they know there and the situation is not very good now.

Now even the comrades over there don’t know where the people are now, and they don’t even know... whether they have sacrificed any lives!

Some overseas Chinese are willing to use their connections to help find it, but... knowing that the enemy and the armed forces there have reached an agreement, there is basically no progress. "

Hearing this, everyone felt a sinking feeling in their hearts.

If even the people over there don’t know, then we’ll be in trouble.

Shen Yuanfeng thought for a moment and asked, "Any news from other sources?"

In addition to these few people and the overseas Chinese outside, there must be other people sent.

They are not the first, and they will not be the last until they complete their mission.

It’s impossible to send people on a large scale, but there are still some small batches.

Wang Xia shook her head: "Not yet."
