"Vice Captain Lin, you can go home." "Sea Otter" said to Lin Hu.
"Have you checked everything clearly?" Lin Hu asked.
I bet this man was found to be addicted.
"What do you think? Let's go quickly. I still have something to say to you." "Sea Otter" said with a smile.
Lin Hu's words seemed a bit prickly. But fortunately, "Sea Otter" didn't take it seriously.
Of course, Lin Hu was just asking and didn't mean anything else.
The two of them walked one behind the other. Lin Hu was carrying a small bag of his, which contained the luggage for the past few days.
A car is already waiting at the door.
"Get in the car." "Sea Otter" said to Lin Hu after opening the door of the passenger seat.
Lin Hu looked at the car. There was no driver.
"What?" Lin Hu asked.
Although Lin Hu didn't ask in detail, the meaning of these words was already very clear. What Lin Hu asked was "Why is there no driver?"
"I'm driving today." "Sea Otter" said as he walked to the other side.
If "Sea Otter" said this, the reason why Lin Hu sat in the passenger seat was obvious.
In fact, there is a saying in etiquette activities that when riding in a car, if the driver is driving, then the seat next to the driver is the "small seat", which is the seat of the co-pilot. And the seat behind the co-pilot is That seat is the "big seat", where guests should sit.
But if the owner is driving and the owner's wife is not present, the passenger seat will be the "big seat".
"Sea Otter" is worthy of having a driver. After all, he is not young anymore. Naturally, his reaction will not be good when he is older. If he dies in a car accident or something while driving, wouldn't it be a big loss? This person can be considered a senior member of the National Security Bureau.
So. "Sea Otter" drove by himself today. It must be to keep it secret.
Lin Hu got into the car. "Sea Otter" drove out of the gate of the National Security Bureau and drove all the way towards Nanshan.
There was no conversation all the way. The car drove straight up the mountain and along the winding mountain road.
This road is different from the road in Nanshan Scenic Area. It is on the back side of Nanshan Mountain.
This is also normal. Nowadays, many tourist attractions based on mountain scenery are like this. There are hiking trails and scenic spots on the front for tourists who hike up the mountain to visit. However, the back or side of the mountain will not affect the scenery. Under the overall landscape, a road is built for vehicles to go up and down the mountain. Of course, such a road can be used for trucks to transport supplies to scenic spots on the mountain. It can also be a passage for private cars, tour buses, etc. to go up the mountain. You need to know. The tops of mountains in many scenic spots are full of valuables, where you can stay and play.
But this road in Nanshan Scenic Area is different. At least it becomes different after passing a fork in the road.
Because one road leads to the Martyrs Cemetery at the top of Nanshan Mountain. The other road leads to a cemetery closer to the inside than the Martyrs Cemetery.
Lin Hu knew the direction of these two roads very well. Otherwise, he would have lived in Nanjiang for so many years. And they were now on the road to the cemetery.
Lin Hu didn't ask much. Maybe "Sea Otter" had a reason for doing this. After all, "Sea Otter" didn't seem to have any malicious intent.
The two of them went all the way to the cemetery.
"Sea Otter" parked the car at the entrance of the cemetery and got out of the car.
Lin Hu also got out of the car.
At the gate of the cemetery is a row of steps. Above the steps is a tall archway.
The archway and steps are all white. I don’t know if it’s the original color of the stone or if it’s painted like this with latex paint. Anyway, it’s all white.
Although the archway is considered a traditional building in China, it is very common. At least you can still see the archway in some places that are still preserved in the ancient city, especially in Beijing.
But those archways are all carved in red and painted in green. They feel relatively normal. Even the archways in some mausoleums are made directly from stone, maintaining the original color of the stone.
But the one in front of me was turned into a pale color. In conjunction with the large piece of wall inside that was made on the mountain, a big word "Dian" was written in black letters on a white background, which was really scary.
The weather is still good today. But Lin Hu and "Sea Otter" still feel an inexplicable chill.
(Okay. This is not a thriller...)
The two people walked in. After entering, there was a row of small houses on the left. That was the office of the cemetery management office.
But now it looks like that office building is lifeless. I guess there isn't even a ghost in it.
On the other side, a tombkeeper sweeping the floor looked very strange.
"This way."
After "Sea Otter" finished speaking, he walked towards the side of the office building.
Lin Hu followed.
After the two people walked to that side, Lin Hu noticed that there was a passage on the side of the office building. The mountains on both sides of the passage were smoothed with cement and turned into two walls.
These two ash walls are specially used to store urns. Only a few wall holes are not sealed. It seems that many "people" have "slept" here.
"There is no sunshine here all year round. It is dark and humid. There is no one to take care of it. There are not many people who burn incense." "Sea Otter" said.
A wall with ashes costing several hundred yuan like this would not be buried here by anyone with some modest means at home. This kind of place is called "poor feng shui" because no one is willing to buy it. That's why cemeteries usually have walls built with ashes. Just use it to put those homeless people, headless corpses, etc. Anyway, no one claims it, or they can't identify whose ashes are at all. Make those good places into good tombs and sell them.
"What do you want to say."
"Look carefully at these tombstones," said Sea Otter.
So Lin Hu carefully observed these tombstones.
"They all die on the same day." Lin Hu said after looking at them for a long time.
There must be at least dozens of urns on such two walls. Most of the deaths were on the same day.
"On this day, the people who died when the terrorists attacked Nanjiang were mostly from the city government. Because the bodies were really impossible to identify, all the unidentified bodies were brought here." "Sea Otter" said.
Lin Hu's mind suddenly returned to that day many years ago.
It was a very dark day. Many people had their families broken up and their families separated. Many people were burned in the flames.
"This way." "Sea Otter" said after sighing.
The two people exited and went up the mountain along the stone steps next to the word "Dian".
On the mountain, "Sea Otter" took Lin Hu to a cemetery.
It's much better here. At least the sun is shining unobstructed. It's warm and nice.
"The students and teachers who died in the school are placed here, as well as the civil servants who have been clearly identified." "Sea Otter" said.
Lin Hu didn't speak, but his expression was very serious. He was thinking about "Sea Otter"'s intention today.
"Sea Otter" didn't say much here. He led Lin Hu through the tombstones.
Suddenly, "Sea Otter" stopped in front of a tombstone.
Lin Hu looked at the tombstone. On the tombstone was a female student who looked like a high school student, wearing a playful ponytail and smiling happily.
"This is..." Lin Hu asked hesitantly.
"It's my daughter," said Sea Otter.
"Your daughter."
Lin Hu was very surprised. At Sea Otter's age, his daughter must be at least a college student. But the age on the tombstone was only seventeen. And the look between the girl's eyebrows was indeed quite similar to that of Sea Otter. Somewhat similar.
"My daughter was killed by those terrorists. She was only seventeen years old."
"Sea Otter" was a little uncontrollable, but he quickly suppressed his emotions.
"You think I'm very old. I'm only fifty years old. My hair turns gray overnight."
"Sea Otter" said after sighing softly.
"Brother, just say what you have to say." Lin Hu said.
"I could have retreated to the second line. After my daughter was killed, the leader considered my situation and wanted me to go to the second line. But do you know why I didn't go?" "Sea Otter" said. "I want to catch the murderer myself. I I have to catch him. I want to avenge my daughter."
"Sea Otter" completely subverted his image in Lin Hu's heart. "Sea Otter" has always given people a feeling of confidence. I didn't expect that he also has such an emotional and fragile side.
"What can I do for you?" Lin Hu asked again.
"Sea Otter" waved his hand but said nothing. He took Lin Hu down the mountain, got in the car, and drove to the Martyrs Cemetery again.
"Lying here are the martyrs who died in this war." "Sea Otter" said.
Of course Lin Hu knows this very well. Many people here once stood in front of Lin Hu alive.
Among the martyrs here are special forces, armed police, and police.
"You shouldn't ask me what you can do for me. I'll do my own thing," said the Sea Otter.
Lin Hu remained silent and just listened.
"What you should be asking is what can you do for them." Sea Otter's voice suddenly rose an octave.
"So, what can I do for them?" Lin Hu asked.
"Ask them yourself."
Lin Hu looked at the rows of solemn tombstones in front of him.
In Liu Meng's words, this is "a square formation of one soldier".
Lin Hu suddenly raised his hand and saluted these tombstones.
"Loyal to the motherland. Loyal to the people. Kill."
Lin Hu is roaring.
The mountains are roaring. It’s the warrior spirits roaring.
…
"You should know. It's time for you to leave the army." "Sea Otter" drove the car and said to Lin Hu.
"I understand." Lin Hu said.
"So you are freer. Just like Wang Chaoyang and others."
"What do you mean."
"I need you to help the 'evil spirits'. They are not strong enough. Salozzo is in Mogadishu. It is in the camp where you are being held. It can only be there." "Sea Otter" said.
"No problem." Lin Hu thought for a moment and said, "I will catch him."
"what do you need."
"I need a commando team. I need a transport plane that is exempt from customs inspection."
"You can choose the people from the 'Shadow' special forces. I'll take care of the planes."
"Active military."
"Don't worry. I will take care of it. Be loyal to the motherland. Be loyal to the people." "Sea Otter" said.
"I understand." Lin Hu said.
…
That night, Lin Hu and "Sea Otter" got very drunk in a tavern. They were so drunk that they cried bitterly. They were so drunk that they forgot themselves.
