Seeing that Ignat was still hesitant, Sokov said first: "I have no idea about this matter today. If I make a mistake in judgment and something happens, I will bear all the responsibilities. I will just pretend that you didn't show up; if I judge
Correct, that is a great achievement, all the credit belongs to you, I will never be greedy for credit."
Everyone in the car laughed, and someone said: "Comrade General, after hearing what you said, we realized that it was a great good thing that you called us here."
Sokov said: "You are all Yakov's subordinates, and I will never forget you if good things happen."
Someone bravely said: "When you asked us to change into civilian clothes, we thought someone had offended you and wanted to help you fight."
This remark caused the whole car to laugh again.
Sokov also laughed: "Fight? If it's just a fight, why would I ask you to bring weapons? Besides, if I encounter a fight, I don't need your help. I will definitely go to my friends from the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
"Comrade General," Ignat asked respectfully, "What should we do next?"
Sokov knew very well in his heart that if the officer he saw was really a German spy, then he must be very alert. Even if his group went in plain clothes, there was still the possibility of alerting the enemy, so there must be a careful plan.
plan of.
"Captain Ignat," Sokov said carefully: "I know which house the man lives in, but I don't know the specific room on the floor he is in, so when I arrest him later, I have to be careful not to notice him.
And ran away."
"Do you have any detailed plans?"
"Captain, the bus we are taking looks very ordinary. We can drive to the side of that building and stop later." Sokov told Ignat: "Then you send two
The soldier entered the building carrying a pistol and, under the guise of looking for someone, asked the building administrator which room the person lived in."
Ignat and his men are responsible for the security work of the Weapons and Equipment Department. If they are sent to the battlefield, their combat effectiveness will definitely not be as good as that of ordinary field troops; but if they come to arrest suspicious elements, their capabilities are no better than those of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The staff is poor.
So as soon as Sokov finished speaking, he nodded and said: "I understand, Comrade General. I will personally take two people to arrest the suspicious person in the building."
"That's okay." If it were an ordinary soldier who went to arrest the officer, Sokov's heart would still be a little uneasy. Now that Ignat expressed his willingness to lead the team in person, Sokov's heart suddenly felt at ease.
: "Then I'll leave this matter to you."
The car came to a stop next to the building. When Ignat and two soldiers were about to get out of the car, Sokov specifically told him: "Comrade Captain, the other party has a gun, you must be more careful.
"
"Don't worry, Comrade General." Ignat grinned at Sokov and replied, "I know what's going on."
In order to facilitate the attack, after the three got out of the car, the car door was not closed and was still wide open. Sokov and Asiya sat on the side away from the building to avoid being discovered by the officers in the building.
After Ignat got off the bus with the soldiers, he did not immediately enter the building. Instead, he stood downstairs and shouted: "Hey, Ajik, Ajik, are you at home?"
Hearing Ignat's shout, Sokov couldn't help but tremble all over. He thought to himself that if you shouted outside the building, weren't you giving a message to the officers in the building?
"Misha," Ignat's shout also made Asiya feel frightened. She asked Sokov in a panic: "Captain Ignat is shouting outside, will he not alert the man in the building?"
Officer?"
Although Sokov was dealing with Ignat for the first time, he also felt that the other party would not be so brainless, risking exposure and making blind noises in front of others.
At this time, he heard Ignat shouting again: "Ajik, we are leaving, come down quickly. If you don't come down, I will bring people in to find you."
When Sokov heard this, he immediately realized that he had misunderstood Ignat. The emotional opponent used this method to paralyze the officer in the building, making him think that Ignat and others were coming from a man named Ajik.
.
After figuring out what was going on, Sokov turned to Asiya who was sitting in the back row and said, "Asiya, don't worry. This is a little trick used by Ignat. He deliberately shouted loudly outside the building.
, which happens to make the officer in the building relax his vigilance, which is conducive to their arrest."
After saying this, Sokov asked the soldiers sitting in the car: "Except Captain Ignat, who has the highest military rank here?"
As soon as Sokov finished asking, the man sitting in front of him raised his hand: "Comrade General, I am Second Lieutenant Yura, and the soldiers in the car are all my subordinates."
"Second Lieutenant Yura," Sokov pointed to the building next to him and said to Yura: "After Captain Ignat leads people into the building, you should immediately lead a few soldiers around to the back of the building to avoid
The suspicious person jumped out of the window and escaped. The rest of the group is under my command, and we will stay here to guard the front door."
Besides, Ignat yelled outside the building for a while, opened the iron door with a muttering, and entered the building with two of his subordinates. Seeing this, Second Lieutenant Yura turned to ask Sokov: "Comrade General, I
Just take people around to the back of the building now?”
Sokov did not answer immediately, but tilted his head and looked out of the car. He saw that no one was seen in front of any windows on the side of the building near the bus. Then he nodded to Lieutenant Yura and said: "Go.
Come on, Lieutenant Yura, pay attention to your safety."
The officer Sokov and Asiya met was named Schwab. He was a German spy. He used the seized identity documents to sneak into Moscow. He was originally going to contact him today, but he didn't know what happened to the contact person.
, did not show up at the stipulated time. Schwab, who was always cautious, was worried that the other party had been captured by the Soviet intelligence agency and even betrayed himself, so he evacuated the place in time, preparing to wait for the next day to go to the next meeting point.
On the way home, he saw Sokov and Asiya. At the time, he thought they were people from the intelligence agency, but after careful observation, he found that they were ordinary passers-by, so he did not take a detour and returned directly.
own place of residence.
While he was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, he suddenly heard someone shouting outside the window. He walked to the window and carefully looked down. He saw a bus parked downstairs, and three people were shouting for someone downstairs.
The man named Ajik seemed to urge the man to go downstairs quickly.
Seeing that nothing was going on, Schwab turned away from the window and lay back on the bed. He began to wonder if the contact person did not show up today. Maybe something was delayed, or he was arrested by the Soviet intelligence agency.
At this moment, he heard someone knocking on the door. He immediately took out the pistol placed under the pillow and asked warily: "Who, who is outside?"
"Ajik, it's me, Andre!" A familiar voice came from outside the door: "Our car has arrived downstairs and is waiting for you to get off."
Schwab came to the door and said loudly outside: "Andre, you are looking in the wrong place. There is no Ajik here."
"Impossible," the person outside told the room number, and said confidently: "This is the right room, Ajik, stop joking, open the door quickly." After saying that, he banged the door hard.
The other party's almost rude behavior made Schwab very angry. He changed the pistol to his left hand, opened the door with his right hand, and said outside: "There is nothing here you are looking for..."
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, the person outside the door suddenly punched him. Schwab, who was not prepared at all, was immediately beaten until his eyes were black and stars were shining in his eyes. Before he could make any reaction, people outside
Then a hungry tiger pounced on him and knocked him to the ground. Then Schwab felt that his hands and feet were being grabbed and he could not move.
Schwab thought there was a misunderstanding and shouted loudly: "You are mistaken, I am not an Ajik!"
"That's right, we're arresting you." Ignat put his knee on Schwab's chest, strangled his throat with one hand, and said with a sneer: "I didn't expect it, you thought you could disguise yourself
Very good, but we still found out."
After Ignat finished speaking, he ordered one of the soldiers, "Send a signal to the people downstairs and say that we have successfully captured him."
The soldier agreed and handed over the arm that he had pinned down to another soldier. Then he walked to the window, opened the window, stuck his head out and shouted outside: "We have captured the person."
Hearing the shouts from upstairs, Sokov ordered everyone to get out of the car. After setting up security outside the building, he entered the building with seven or eight soldiers.
The building manager sitting next to the stairs was shocked when he saw so many people pouring in outside, and then asked: "What are you going to do?"
"Comrade Administrator," Sokov asked the administrator without identifying himself, "Which room did the three people who just came in go to?"
"Room 302 on the third floor."
Seeing Sokov leading people upstairs, the administrator felt uneasy. He quickly picked up the phone on the table, dialed a number, and said in a low voice: "Hey, is this the police station? This is...
…”
Sokov led people into the room, and when he saw Ignat and the three men still pressing the officer to the ground, he quickly stopped and turned to the soldiers who followed him: "Hurry up and help the captain tie this man up.
"
The soldiers heard the sound and stepped forward, scrambling to tie up Schwab who was pressed to the ground.
And Ignat came to Sokov, raised his hand in salute, and asked: "Comrade General, is it him?"
Sokov glanced at the officer who was tied up and had his arms held by two soldiers. He nodded and replied in a positive tone: "Yes, that's him."
When Schwab saw Sokov and Asiya entering the door, his face was full of surprise, but as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, he shouted to Sokov: "Hey, friend, do you remember me?
?We met on the road not long ago, and I even gave you a hand."
Sokov came to Schwab and smiled faintly: "Yes, Mr. Officer, your memory is very good. We did meet him on the road not long ago."
"What is going on?" Although he had been tied up, Schwab asked himself that he had not exposed any flaws, so he pretended to be calm and said, "Who are you and why did you tie me up?"
Sokov did not answer Schwab's question, but asked: "Who are you and what is your purpose in coming to Moscow?"
"This friend!" Schwab said, pretending to be confused, "I am on a business trip from Moscow, and my troops are just outside the city."
Ignat handed a military ID card to Sokov: "Comrade General, this is the military ID card and business trip permit he used."
Sokov opened the military ID and took a look. Although the photo was of the officer in front of him, the name was obviously not that person. Sokov closed the military ID, handed it to Ignat, looked at Schwab and asked:
"Mr. Officer, I think the owner of the certificate has been killed. You should tell me honestly, who are you?"
"This is my personal ID." Schwab saw that Sokov and others were all wearing casual clothes. There was always a trace of luck in his heart, and he tried his best to defend himself and said: "I don't know who you are and why you want to arrest me, but I
I still want to tell you that you must be mistaken."
Seeing that the other party was deliberately evading the important points, Sokov knew that if he continued to ask questions like this, he would not be able to ask anything useful, so he turned around and ordered Ignat: "Comrade Captain, let your people search this room to see if there are any
Something of value?”
A few minutes later, a radio station and code book were found in the house.
Sokov picked up the code book and flipped through it, then shook the code book with his hand and asked coldly: "Mr. Officer, can you tell me what's going on with this code book and the radio?"
"I am originally a communications staff officer," Schwab said still forcefully: "Isn't it normal to have a radio and a code book with me?"
Ignat, who was standing aside, saw that Schwab was stubborn and refused to tell the truth, so he approached Sokov and asked in a low voice: "Comrade General, what should we do with him?"
"Take him away first." Sokov felt that by handing this person over to Lunev, no matter how strict his mouth was, the personnel of the Ministry of Internal Affairs could get the information they wanted: "Since he refuses to admit it, then we
Just hand him over to the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
Ignat felt that he came out with a group of subordinates and captured an officer who was acting suspiciously, but the other party firmly refused to admit that he was a German spy. If he continued to interrogate, he might not be able to get any useful information.
It is better to send it directly to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and let the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs deal with him.
After thinking about this, he naturally agreed to Sokov's order very readily: "Okay, Comrade General." Then he ordered the soldiers standing next to him, "Take him to the car."
Unexpectedly, before they could go out, a soldier rushed in from outside. He quickly came to Ignat's side and whispered a few words into his ear. After hearing this, Ignat's face suddenly changed.
Big changes.
Seeing this, Sokov quickly asked: "Captain Ignat, what happened?"
"Comrade General," Ignat said uneasily, "a group of policemen and Ministry of Internal Affairs personnel came outside and surrounded our people."
"What, the police and the Ministry of Internal Affairs surrounded your subordinates, what is going on?" Sokov was also confused about what happened outside the building. He shook his head at Ignat,
Said: "Let's go and take a look."
Ignat turned to look at Schwab, who was caught by two soldiers, and asked Sokov: "Comrade General, what about him?"
"Needless to say, I will naturally take them away together."
