Malashenko, with his legs crossed and a cigarette in his hand, sat on a chair and listened to the shouting with great interest.
However, this story is nice to hear, but Malashenko always felt that something was missing.
After thinking about it carefully, I suddenly realized that it was because I didn't have anything to chew and my hands were empty. It turned out that I was missing a handful of melon seeds in my hand. It would be perfect if I really had a handful of melon seeds to eat at this time.
"Hmm, so you're saying that you used your Wehrmacht's recruitment summons to forge and rejected the SS's recruitment summons, is that right?"
Adam nodded slowly after hearing this, but there was also a hint of denial in the words that followed.
"It's not a push-over, it's just that my recruitment time is earlier than theirs."
"In this way, the black dogs who came to question us again will have nothing to say. They were taken away by us first. This is precisely the point where they are most powerless."
"After the Cherkasy incident, the relationship between the Wehrmacht and the SS has been very tense. It is like a tight string. It will break instantly if it is touched, let alone touched. No one wants to
If you are the culprit who caused the string to break, and you carry this crime on your back, you will probably be damned. Not even the big guys above can save you, and smart people understand this."
"So even though those black dogs were gnashing their teeth with anger, I guess they could also guess that there might be something fishy going on here. But it happened to be a turbulent time and the time was tight. They didn't have any extra time to investigate, and I didn't leave any time for them.
How long did it take for Freeman to be conquered quickly? I don’t know what happened to them after that, but I guess I can’t do anything about it.”
I have to say that Adam handled this matter very well, or the person who gave him the idea had a really great idea. Even Malashenko couldn't seem to find anything better than this.
.
Malashenko nodded slowly and spoke again, asking what was happening at the moment.
"Then Freeman has been following you until now?"
Adam did not answer in words, but nodded silently.
Although it was not life-threatening, he still lost a lot of blood. Chatting with Malashenko for so long made his already weak body feel a little overdrawn. It seemed that it was not suitable to continue such an embarrassing conversation.
Already.
"Okay, it looks like you need to rest too, so I won't disturb you too much."
Compared with the winner and the loser, Malashenko and Adam are now more like friends who have just met.
This is actually one of the rights of the victor. How to get along with the defeated, whether it is good or bad, whether to treat him politely or glare at him, all depends on the victor's own subjective thoughts.
Adam cooperated well, and Malashenko got what he wanted without much effort, which can be said to save time and effort.
After winning the battle and encountering such a good thing, Malashenko, who happened to be overjoyed, was in a good mood. Adam, who had a good attitude and actively cooperated, was naturally tolerant and generous. Malashenko did not have that kind of victory.
Finally, you must have the habit of severely humiliating your enemies. Most of the time it depends on the situation.
I got what I needed to get, and the questions I was interested in were answered.
At this point, Malashenko has no reason to stay any longer. In the final analysis, he is still here to ask questions rather than to provide escort for Adam. Even if he can chat with this defeated general, now is the time to say goodbye.
It's time.
"Oh, by the way, there is one more thing I want to ask you."
Before getting up and leaving, Malashenko had one last question to ask Adam. Unexpectedly, Malashenko had already stood up and had something to say. Adam just stared at him in return.
"Looking at it like this, you probably won't die. I guess you've probably given up on the idea of suicide now that you've reached this point. Have you ever thought about what to do after the war is over?"
Adam has the highest sense of honor as a soldier who is willing to die on the battlefield. Malashenko knows this very well, at least not long ago. He said so himself, and of course he did so in actual behavior. But
In the end, I couldn't get what I wanted.
It's probably not feasible for Adam to seek death now, at least that's what Malashenko thought after a brief exchange of information.
This guy is a man with a strong sense of responsibility and the responsibilities a man should have.
Yes, despite being enemies, Malashenko still respects Adam as a man.
A man's shoulders can never be empty. As long as he is alive, there will always be a burden on him.
As far as his life is concerned, Adam's life now doesn't just belong to him.
Without Freeman and the old woman's life-saving rescue, Adam would have died of excessive blood loss and a cold, smelly corpse on the street. If he was unlucky, he might have been run over by the leader's steel treads.
Grinding, turning the stinky meat into stinky meat filling, is another "processing step".
Precisely because of this intertwined bond of life, Malashenko estimated that if Adam still had some responsibility and a sense of responsibility, he would definitely not let Freeman and his grandmother sacrifice their lives to save him.
For a man like Adam, what shines brightly in him is his manly strength, but it is also his weakness.
His life and death are not entirely up to him now. As long as Freeman, who risked his life to save him, wants him to live, his responsibility and sense of responsibility will prevent him from seeking death. As for Freeman, then
Whether the young man wants Adam to die or live is already an obvious matter on the table, and there is no need to say more.
Unexpectedly, Malashenko would ask such a question. Adam, who was leaning on the bed with a pale face, thought for a while.
The last puff of the cigarette in his mouth had burned out and burned to the edge of his mouth. It was not until the ash fell on his body that his lips felt hot. Adam, who was brought back to reality from his long thoughts, finally had an answer he could tell.
, spoke slowly.
"I don't know. I graduated from the military academy and then joined the army. I have fought for the so-called righteousness that I once believed in and have been fighting ever since. Apart from serving as a soldier, I know almost nothing, and I have never tried to learn or master any profession.
Skill."
"A "remnant of the Nazis" like me who is still alive will probably not be allowed to return to his old profession after the war. I think he will probably be thrown into prison and locked up for five or ten years or more. After I am released from prison, I will not
When I turn 50, I have nothing to pursue. By then, I can just make a living and go home to wait for death. Even if they hire security guards, they probably won’t hire an old man who is 50 years old. I have no other choice, so I have to do this.
