Lunev opened his mouth and was about to speak when suddenly the phone on the table rang.
"I'm sorry, Misha." Lunev reached out and picked up the phone. He didn't put it to his ear immediately. Instead, he covered the phone with his hand and said apologetically to Sokov: "I need to answer the phone. You and Ah Thea, please sit outside first."
"Asia," Sokov knew that Lunev's call must involve confidentiality, and it was obviously inappropriate for him and Asya to stay here, so he stood up with the support of his cane and said to Asya; "We Let’s go sit in the office outside first.”
Lunev waited until Sokov and Asya left his room and closed the door before putting the phone to his ear: "I'm Lunev, what can I do?"
An anxious voice came from the receiver: "Comrade Deputy Minister, the German spy who was captured by General Sokov some time ago finally confessed after our repeated interrogations."
"Oh, you confessed." Lunev said in surprise: "Did you provide any valuable information?"
"He said that he sneaked into Moscow this time to obtain important information."
"What information?" Lunev asked: "Who provided him with the information."
"It's a plan for our army to launch an assault on the right bank of the Dnieper River. The person who provided him with information was a captain in our intelligence department, nicknamed Yoder Schoffa."
"What is this captain's name and what does he look like?"
"I don't know the specific name. I just know that he is a bald man, about forty years old..."
Seeing that he could not get more detailed information from the other party, Lunev's face became serious: "Continue the interrogation and we must dig out the enemies hidden in our Ministry of Internal Affairs."
While Runev was on the phone with the person responsible for interrogating German spies in the office, Sokov and Asya were sitting in the outer office, chatting with Runev's secretary.
The secretary asked Sokov: "General Sokov, you will be returning to the Frunze Military Academy in a few days to attend the senior commander training class, right?"
"Yes." This matter is not a secret, many people know it. The man in front of him was Lunev's secretary. It was said that Lunev had asked him to complete some of the things he studied at the Frunze Military Academy. Therefore, he answered truthfully: "In three or four days, the new round of senior commander training courses will officially start."
"Comrade General, I would like to ask." The secretary asked: "After the senior commander training class starts, will you still go home every day as before, or will you still live in the college, go home every Friday afternoon, and go back on Sunday evening?" What about returning to the academy?”
Sokov really hadn't considered the question the secretary asked. He thought for a moment and then replied: "In the past few months, my injury had not healed and I needed to stay in the hospital for treatment, so Lieutenant Koshkin picked me up and dropped me off every day. Now my injuries are almost healed, There’s no need to commute every day, I think it’s better to live in the college and go home every Friday afternoon.”
"Okay, Comrade General." The secretary sat behind the desk, wrote down the matter on the notepad, and said to Sokov: "I will arrange for Lieutenant Koshkin to have him every Friday afternoon I’ll pick you up from the academy and take you home.”
"Thank you, Comrade Secretary, thank you so much..." Sokov was saying words of gratitude to his secretary when he suddenly heard two faint gunshots outside. He instinctively reached for his waist, but found nothing. , and then he remembered that he had never worn a gun since he was injured.
The secretary also heard the gunshots outside. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said to himself: "What is the sound outside?"
"Gunshots."
"This is impossible." The secretary immediately denied Sokov's statement: "This is the building of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. How could there be gunshots? You must have heard wrong."
"That's right, Comrade Secretary." Sokov, who has been on the battlefield for more than two years, is very familiar with the sounds of various firearms firing. He quickly said: "It's the sound of TT-33 pistol firing. Believe me, it's absolutely It can’t be wrong.”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was another gunshot from outside. This time the gunshot was clearer than before. It seemed that the shooting position was quite close to here. Then, the sound of pistol shooting rang out again, and at the same time there was the sound of shooting from the Sand submachine gun.
"No, something happened!" The secretary opened the drawer in front of him, grabbed the pistol inside, walked around the desk, and rushed towards the door.
After confirming that the sound of shooting was nearby, Sokov quickly stood up, opened the door of the bathroom next to him, and pushed Asiya in. Seeing the secretary rushing toward the door, he quickly shouted to him: "Danger, don't..."
Before Sokov could finish his words, there was intensive submachine gun fire outside. The secretary who had just rushed to the door started twitching as if he had been electrocuted. A moment later, he fell on his back to the ground, with blood seeping out from under his body.
Sokov saw the secretary's pistol falling three or four steps away from him. At this moment, he saw a figure appear at the door, and it was too late to rush over to pick up the gun. He quickly jumped over, grabbed the gun that fell on the ground, and without even taking aim, pulled the trigger towards the figure at the door. the trigger.
The secretary's pistol is a TK pistol worn by Ministry of Internal Affairs personnel. This is the first semi-automatic pistol developed by the Soviet Union, with a capacity of eight rounds. Sokov pulled the trigger desperately and shot out all the bullets in the gun.
When Sokov pulled the trigger repeatedly and found that no bullets were ejected from the muzzle, he realized that he had fired all the bullets. He hurriedly looked toward the door to see how well his shot was going.
I saw a bald captain without a military cap at the door. He was holding a TT-33 pistol in his left hand and a submachine gun in his right hand. The bullet Sokov had just fired hit him in the chest and abdomen. The captain's body stiffened, and then he knelt on his knees, and then fell headfirst to the floor.
Sokov crawled forward a few steps, put his hand under the other person's nose, and found that he was no longer breathing. But just to be on the safe side, he still took away the pistol and submachine gun from the other party.
"What's going on, what's going on?" Lunev, who had just come to his senses, opened the office door and rushed out with a TK pistol in his hand, asking loudly: "Where is the shooting going on?"
When he saw the three people lying on the ground clearly, he couldn't help being shocked. He quickly bent down to help Sokov, and at the same time asked: "Misha, what on earth is going on?"
"Don't move, raise your hands!" Before Sokov could say anything, shouts suddenly came from the door. When he looked up, there were five or six soldiers standing at the door, all of them without exception. Point the gun into the house.
"I'm Lunev." In order to avoid misunderstanding, Lunev stood up slowly and said to everyone: "Put down your guns and don't fire."
When the soldiers put away their weapons and went in to check if the bald captain was dead, Asia ran out of the bathroom. When she saw Sokov lying on the ground, her eyes suddenly turned red: " Misha, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, help me up quickly."
Seeing Asiya helping Sokov, two soldiers immediately came forward to help, lifted Sokov up from the ground, and arranged for him to sit on a chair next to him.
Lunev looked at the two corpses on the ground and asked angrily: "Who can tell me what is going on?"
Sokov, who was sitting on the chair, looked up at Lunev and said: "Lunev, let me tell you what I know first."
"Please tell me, Misha."
"It's like this. When Asya and I were chatting with your secretary, suddenly gunshots were heard outside." Sokov explained to Lunev: "According to my experience, I can tell at once that the gunfire was caused by It was coming from a TT-33 pistol. But a moment later, while the pistol was shooting, I heard the sound of a **sha submachine gun again.
And your secretary, after hearing the gunfire outside, immediately took out his gun and wanted to go out to see what was going on. Unexpectedly, as soon as he rushed to the door, he was shot to death by the bald captain. Seeing that the situation was dangerous, I pushed Asiya into the bathroom, picked up the secretary's pistol, and shot at the bald captain. "
Lunev opened his mouth and was about to speak when suddenly the phone on the table rang.
"I'm sorry, Misha." Lunev reached out and picked up the phone. He didn't put it to his ear immediately. Instead, he covered the phone with his hand and said apologetically to Sokov: "I need to answer the phone. You and Ah Thea, please sit outside first."
