C9 Who Stole My Socks

(i)

6 October 2005, Regent's Hill (alias), Chief C's villa.

At six o'clock in the morning, I woke up on time, rubbed my eyes, and sat up in bed. Then I grabbed a light blue sportswear from one side and pulled it over my body. However, when I put on my socks, I found a hole the size of a peanut. After a moment of regret, I took out a pair of new socks from under my pillow and put them on.

I turned on the light, stretched my limbs, and then lay on the ground doing push-ups. I heard the bones in my body crackle, and I felt a sense of accomplishment. After more than two hundred push-ups, I stood up again, breathed a sigh of relief, took a cigarette, and went out for my morning exercise.

My name is Zhao Long, and I am 24 years old. I live in Beijing, the capital of China.

My position is Security Officer, and I am a vice company officer of the Central Tevila (alias), with the rank of first lieutenant. My main task is to be in charge of the security of the country's political dignitaries, Chief C. I am currently living in Chief C's villa with the other senior security guards in charge of his protection. The staff of the Head Office have a common habit, which is to train in the morning. From one to six o'clock, almost all the security guards, drivers and civil servants will get up and exercise for an hour before starting their meal.

Of course, our security target, Chief C, has a habit of doing morning exercises as well.

Halfway through the smoke, a beautiful woman in a red sports coat pushed open the door with a newspaper in her hand. She looked to be in good spirits. Her rank is the same as mine, she is also a first lieutenant. Don't look down on her, she is the legendary bodyguard of beauties in the whole of China, her name is comparable to Bian Mei, the number one female bodyguard in China.

I took a deep breath of the cigarette, letting the pungent smell from the cigarette swirl in my lungs, before I smiled at You Meng. "Staff Officer You, you're looking for me to do my morning practice again?"

You Meng was chewing on a green arrow chewing gum. After she stopped chewing, she shook the newspaper in her hands and waved it in front of my eyes, saying: "Zhao Long, your picture is in the newspaper. Take a look!" She spread the newspaper out on the table and pointed to one of the pages.

You know, as a national Special Guard, you are not allowed to publish pictures in newspapers or magazines. I looked in the direction that You Meng was pointing at and found that it was a copy of the "Hong Kong Daily News". In the middle of the B Edition, there were a few photos of youths wearing Black Suit s, including me. On the right side of the photo, there was a line of eye-catching captions: Chief C, come to Hong Kong to inspect, Bodyguard from Beijing Air Pressure Flying Tiger Team. Content: During the visit of Chief C to Hong Kong, the Hong Kong police are on alert to ensure the safety of Chief C and the Flying Tiger Team is on alert. They were all dressed neatly, with a stern expression and not a smile on their faces, and were known as the royal experts. Because Bodyguard from Beijing rarely showed himself, this time, his position was exposed in public, so these Bodyguard from Beijing were not only young, but also all of them were handsome and handsome, causing many of the female reporters to take a few glances at him. The media had commented that this mysterious group of "imperial guards with sabers" had beaten Hong Kong's famous Flying Tiger Company down.

I just smiled bitterly at this kind of report, especially when I saw a close-up of it in the photo. The bright look in my eyes made me feel cool and cool. It was unavoidable to be secretly photographed. Journalists nowadays were very dedicated and dedicated, and would never let go of any interesting news leads. It wasn't the first time that a national security guard had been photographed. However, in the mainland, this kind of news was hard to find. Only in special administrative regions such as Hong Kong and Macao would it be exposed.

I can't help but marvel at the efficiency of the Hong Kong media. The day before yesterday, I and the rest of the staff accompanied Chief C to Hong Kong. Actually, I am not disgusted with the title 'Bodyguard from Beijing'. This is purely because of the popularity of the movie "Bodyguard from Beijing" starring Li Lianjie, which has become popular among the citizens. Actually, strictly speaking, this form of address is very one-sided...

I roughly swept a glance at the newspaper and handed it back to You Meng, grumbling, "You sure are bold, daring to take Chief C's newspaper to read?"

You Meng rolled up the newspaper into a cylinder and said, "What do you know? This is called making full use of resources. Chief, you finished reading it yesterday.

I kindly mocked her, "You're the only one who likes to learn!"

You Meng pouted: "Of course. It is also our Security personnel's responsibility to know more about the various provinces, cities and autonomous regions of the country. "

I nodded perfunctorily. "You're quite good at talking. I'm too lazy to argue with you."

Meng smirked and blew out an enormous bubble. With a small explosion, the bubble gum stuck to her rosy lips. Meng stretched out her greasy little tongue and took the bubble gum back into her mouth. Actually, this was a very ordinary action, but I had taken a few glances at it. To be honest, I don't think dreams are human... Was there anyone that beautiful? Furthermore, he also knew kung fu and was well versed in the eight languages. It was easy for him to communicate through words …

You Meng arranged the sports attire on his body, and said: "Oh right, Zhao Long, let's go out for morning training, if not Secretary Zhang would suspect that we are still sleeping!"

Secretary Zhang is a Security Secretary of the Head Office and can be considered our little leader.

I 'Oh,' and suddenly remembered something, but I didn't know how to say it.

I coughed lightly and hardened my conviction before mustering the courage to say to You Meng, "Staff Officer You, can you … Can I ask you a favor? "

You Meng stopped chewing and looked at me: "What a joke. We're already old partners, so don't use the word "please". It seems like we're being too formal! "

I secretly rejoiced a little and picked up the pair of black socks from the end of the bed. I said bashfully, "Staff Officer You, I don't know how to sew. Can you help me sew them up? It would be a pity to throw them away …"

Before he could finish, he saw You Meng pinch his nose, with his eyes wide open, he said: "Zhao Long, for this difficult mission, I think you should just entrust it to someone else … …"

I was a little disappointed, so I threw my socks at the end of the bed and scolded 'I really have no compassion'. When I turned my head back, You Meng suddenly flew out of the door like a flying immortal, and urged me from outside: "Zhao Long, hurry up, I have practiced in the morning, Chief has been practicing for half an hour already."

I hastily tidied up my clothing and said to myself, "I'm still an old partner. Tsk, I'm not helping you with this!"

As I stretched my arms out of the door of the villa, a breath of fresh air pierced my nostrils, fragrant with the scent of flowers. I looked out and saw that the sky had begun to turn white, like the skin of a fish's belly, and though Grandpa Sun had not yet appeared, his radiance had overshadowed the light in the yard.

As the saying goes, people practice at dawn. Secretary Zhang and the Staff Officer Huang were practicing Tai Chi under the Jade Magnolia Tree with their leader. The beautifully dressed waitress waved their brooms, sweeping away the leaves that had been blown down by the autumn wind. The leader's daughter, Jiaojiao, was playing badminton with Driver Xiao Wang. You Meng watched the badminton match with interest as it was focused on fitness, and voluntarily played the role of 'picking the players'.

Seeing me come out, You Meng waved his hand: "Let's go out for a run."

I nodded and was already in the middle of the yard.

"Uncle Zhao, wait a moment."

Just then, Jiaojiao suddenly called out to me. He sank the badminton racket to his feet, and looked at me imploringly. "Uncle Zhao, how about you play badminton with me?"

I bitterly smiled as I turned my head. As the saying goes, whatever one is afraid of will always come. Jiaojiao, for some reason, really likes to play ball with me. It wasn't easy for me to refuse, so I unwillingly 'mm'. After that, I waved towards You Meng and regretfully said: "According to the convention, you should help me escape from my five kilometer area."

You Meng's face showed some disappointment, but he quickly relaxed. "I'm not running this morning," she said. "I'm so lazy to wash my clothes. I need to change my clothes just because I'm sweating. I might as well go to the gym to exercise."

I mocked her, "The era is improving, but you are regressing. Your mind is dangerous and lazy! "

You Meng made a face at me before turning around and entering the villa like a flying immortal.

I took over Driver Xiao Wang's position and started to play badminton with Jiaojiao. Although Jiaojiao was only fifteen years old, playing badminton with her was' awesome ', I displayed a hundred martial arts techniques and still had difficulty fighting back against her ball. Looking at me picking up the ball and my clumsy playing style, Jiaojiao laughed incessantly, then used his practiced words to ridicule me, "Uncle Zhao, you are a perfect example of literature and martial arts.

I also skillfully teased her, "Jiaojiao, don't be too proud, there will be a day when I can defeat you."

Jiaojiao laughed: "How old are you? Hehe, Uncle Zhao, other people see you as a legendary character, someone with good kung fu skills can write stuff, but Jiaojiao is not afraid of you, because you are not my match while playing badminton. Heh heh. This trick is to compare one's strengths against others' weaknesses... Is Jiaojiao powerful, Uncle Zhao? "

"Impressive, impressive," I said perfunctorily. Inwardly, however, he was secretly laughing: What a powerful little witch. She's only 15 years old, yet she's already so 'sinister'. How is she going to overturn all living things when she grows up?

Around seven o'clock, 'morning practice' came to an end. With a face full of failure smiles, I first washed up in washroom, then returned to my bedroom.

He changed into a well-ironed suit and leather shoes, then tidied up his appearance. In the afternoon, I have to accompany the Head of the Guards on a special plane to State visit in State Y. Before that, I need to discuss the security plan further with the few Security personnel s that are going with me, to ensure the Chief's absolute safety on the trip, and to communicate with the relevant staff in State Y.

Since I have to live in Y Country for a few days, I have to dress up and pack up my usual clothes... But I was suddenly surprised to find that the torn black socks I had left at the foot of the bed were gone!

This was too strange!

There were people stealing things in the Head Office? And stealing socks? And it was a pair of torn socks?

No reason!

(ii)

I smiled wryly, no longer caring about these trivial matters.

After going to the cafeteria to eat breakfast, Secretary Zhang, You Meng, I and I sat down at the guard duty room to study the specific security matters of accompanying our chief on this visit to State Y. To be honest, our hearts are a bit heavy, because the State of Y is a highly developed country, especially the country of Y's top security, all of them have superb skills and extraordinary skills. In our profession, sparring is a common practice among the senior security officers of each country. Sometimes, they reject it, but sometimes, they reject it. If he won, Foreigner would think that the Chinese security guards were powerful, but if they lost, it would make people suspect that the Chinese kung fu only deserved its reputation.

Many times, therefore, what we do represents the image and dignity of the nation, and we must consider it carefully.

To be honest, this is the first time I'm going to Y. However, the name of Y. is widely spread among Chinese security guards and even among the world's top executives. The security guards of State Y were very powerful. Currently, there was a popular saying among the world's famous people: Marry a Japanese wife, enter the United States as a citizen, raise a Korean millet, and hire bodyguards of State Y.

What did the last sentence mean? This meant that the security of State Y was very strong and was already listed in the world rankings.

At the side of the President of State Y, Keben Ryan (alias), there were two 'Big Arms' security guards. One of them was Major Mareshia, who was known as the world's prettiest bodyguard, and the other was Lieutenant Colonel Kessoff, who had won the fight in the last year's World High Level Security Exchange. The names of these two security guards of State Y were definitely a myth in the world.

Therefore, what we are worried about now is, if the security guards of State Y offer to spar with the Chinese security guards, are we sure we can win?

After researching for an entire two hours, Secretary Zhang came to the final conclusion: If the Y side guards suggest a spar skill, we would reject it as the priority, at the same time, we should not harm our relationship. If the other side is too tight, we can change the situation and compare notes in other ways other than fighting...

After lunch, each department began to take their respective jobs in an orderly manner. Outside the villa, seven cars had already left. The guards, secretaries, and civil servants packed their things and put them in the trunk. At this time, the police cruiser was ready to go and arrows were being shot from the bowstrings.

I looked at my watch and thought that I had more than an hour to go before I left for the airport. Was there a need to go so far ahead?

I went back to my bedroom and re-examined my image. When I felt good about myself, I took a cigarette and wiped my shoes with a liquid shoe polish.

The door was pushed open, and You Meng suddenly came in again. With his hands behind his back, he mysteriously appeared in front of me.

I stared at her back and asked, "What are you holding? You're still hiding it."

Her Face expression was a little strange. After looking at me for a moment, she suddenly raised the hand that was behind her back to her front, and a black object appeared in front of me.

I could clearly see that the black thing in her hand was actually a pair of my socks with holes on it!

I understood everything in an instant, but still pretended to complain. "So it was you who stole my socks!"

You Meng patted my shoulder furiously with his socks as he scolded, "You have no conscience! I've washed you and shaken you dry and sewed up the hole. How can you thank me? "

My heart was filled with gratitude. After snatching the socks from her hands, a burst of fragrance wafted into my nose. I couldn't tell if it was the smell of the washing powder or the scent of You Meng's body. The place where the hole had been made had indeed been meticulously sewn with black lines. It was no different from before. I thought to myself, You Meng really has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. He didn't agree with me in the morning, but was actually secretly helping me.

If it weren't for the difference between man and woman, I'd give her a hug to show my gratitude.

I threw the socks down and thanked You Meng: "Thank you, Staff Officer You."

You Meng mischievously asked: "Thank you, you're done for just like that?"

I teased her, "What else can I do? Do you want me to devote my life to you?"

You Meng stared at him and scolded: "Rascal!" Then he continued, "I'm warning you, don't mention the matter of me helping you to mend your socks. If Jiaojiao and the others find out that I was helping you to wash your socks and mend your socks, they would laugh at me. I won't forgive you then! " You Meng smiled cutely. A beautiful dimple on his left cheek suddenly bloomed, she was extremely beautiful.

I replied, "Look at what you've said. How could other people laugh at you?" I think they will definitely praise you for your ingenuity! "

You Meng waved his hands at me and pouted, "That won't do. In the future, if they gave me the socks to mend, wouldn't I be out of luck? He couldn't make it up, nor could he make it up. It's you who set a precedent for me! "

I smacked my lips and said, "That's true. "Don't worry, I'll keep it a secret for you. I definitely won't let anyone know about you mending my socks …" Then, I changed the topic of the conversation and teased her, "You don't need me to have a condition."

You Meng stared at me in shock. "What condition?"

I coughed lightly and said, "In the future, if my socks are broken, I will have to trouble you …"

Of course, You Meng could guess my little scheme, so he jokingly interrupted me and scolded, "You have no conscience. Why was he still stepping on his nose and face? I'm not your girlfriend, so why should I? Go and find Zhao Jie … "

I pretended to be angry as my face tightened and tilted to the side. You Meng thought that he had touched my wound and quickly came over to apologize: "Sorry, I accidentally leaked it …" She knows that my girlfriend, Zhao Jie, and I had already separated a long time ago due to some special reasons. Zhao Jie is still a pain in my heart that I cannot shake.

Asking the world how many infatuated men there are, I count as one too!

Still pretending to ignore her, I grimaced and lit a cigarette. And when I dreamt that my face turned so pale, like a child who had done something wrong, I patted my shoulder and said, "Zhao Long, it's been so long. How much has it been? "Your girlfriend broke up with you because she was unlucky. Don't take it to heart. As a man, you can afford to let it go. With your condition, are you still worried that you won't be able to find a girlfriend better than Zhao Jie?

He wanted to laugh, but on the surface, he continued to pretend to be deep. I fiercely inhaled on my cigarette, pretended to be sorrowful and said: "Sigh, who would be so blind to be my girlfriend …."

You Meng blurted out, "Zhao Long, you need to be confident. I think you are pretty good, he is handsome and skilled, the national guard, Bodyguard from Beijing, how can you not find a girlfriend? "If no one else is with you, I'll just be your girlfriend …"

Only then did my expression change, and I pointed at You Meng and laughed: "Good! I mean it. Immediately sign the contract with a pen. From today onwards, you will be my girlfriend! "

You Meng then knew that he had been tricked, he lightly punched my chest and scolded: "Look in the mirror, first. I would rather never marry, than be your girlfriend! "

I suddenly realized and sighed: "I would rather believe that there is a ghost in this world than believe You Meng's stinky mouth!"

You Meng leaned forward and pinched my thigh with his hand, making a "Aiyo" sound as if he was receiving a heavy punishment.

This is my partner! Although we were partners in the security profession, we were on good terms with each other, like other professional partners. A teasing mouth for a joke was also a form of pleasure outside of work. As the saying goes, a man and woman can work together and not get tired, this saying that has existed for thousands of years is also applicable to Head Office. Furthermore, my female partner is a peerless beauty who can cause cities to fall, and is also capable of both martial arts and martial arts.

However, there was still an important secret that was hidden in my heart: Actually, to You Meng … Cough, let's not talk about it first, it's so embarrassing!

After that, You Meng and I organized the items and put them in the carriage. You Meng and I took the lead and drove an Audi A8 out of the courtyard gate. The sentry at the entrance greeted us with a standard hand gesture, and I waved to him from inside the car. The car slowly sped up and drove out of Security area.

I checked around and saw that the sentries on the perimeter and routes had been set up. The security guards, the local police officers, and the emergency police cars were all in position, busy clearing out the pedestrians. I gave a few words of caution to the cadres of the garrison and drove back to Head Office.

On the way back, You Meng seemed to have thought of something and said to me, "Zhao Long, in March next year, there will be an international security exchange in Washington, United States. Are you interested in participating?"

I said smilingly, "I really do want to participate. I don't know if I'll be able to add a number to the list. Even though it was called an exchange, it was actually a world level battle of strength. I once heard from the Guards that the general process of the competition was just to demonstrate the might of our nation. Actually, I feel that the nature of the competition is similar to that of the Olympics. "

You Meng echoed his sentiments, "Yes. Our Special Security Bureau also places great importance on this. Every year, before the exchange, we will select talented people and conduct intensive training. "

I nodded. "Can you help me get a placing?" I really want to win honor for my country. "

You Meng shook his head, and after thinking about it, he said: "It depends on your performance, it shouldn't be a problem."

I chuckled and gunned the engine.

To me, You Meng is a character who seems to be the 'savior', and is also a beautiful legendary Female officers. From the time I joined the army until now, she had helped me out a lot, including when I first participated in the military competition organized by the military region, and then escorted the Guards's special training. I couldn't not rely on You Meng's help. It's just that I have always been a little confused regarding You Meng's identity. I really don't understand, she is just an insignificant lieutenant, yet she seems to be able to summon the wind and summon the rain in the Central Special Security Bureau. Even the few generals of the Bureau were being very courteous talking to her. This had always been a mystery that I couldn't figure out for a long time.

Just as the Audi drove into the Security area, the encrypted walkie-talkie on my waist beeped. I stopped the car, took it out to listen, and heard the Secretary Zhang's hurried voice: "Staff Officer Zhao, we have just received notice from our superiors that a group of Terrorism s is preparing to stop Chief's cars near the Jade Gate Bridge. Our superiors have ordered us to change the route of the carriages, you and the Staff Officer You should immediately return to the Head Office to discuss the countermeasures."

I was stunned for a moment before asking, "Secretary Zhang, is the news reliable?"

Secretary Zhang said impatiently: "It was personally notified by the bureau chief, do you think it's reliable?"

I said, "Secretary Zhang, there is no need to discuss any more countermeasures. "In my opinion, the original plan and route will be the same. We just need to delay the departure by 15 minutes."

Secretary Zhang said: "It's very risky like this, no way."

I said, "Secretary Zhang, please think about it carefully. How would Terrorism know the route of the Chief?"

Secretary Zhang said, "Could it be that we have a spy?"

I said, "No doubt about it. This way, even if we change our route, the other side will be able to know our new route at the first possible moment, so it is not advisable to do so. "

Secretary Zhang: "Then what should we do? We can't possibly act rashly when we know that there's a tiger in the mountain, right?"

I said, "This way, the only way is to quickly capture all of the Terrorism and at the same time dig out the traitor. Only then will we be able to ensure Chief's absolute safety."

The Secretary Zhang laughed bitterly: Xiao Zhao, we do not have that much time, we cannot let our chief miss the time to take off, right?

I coughed lightly and lit up a cigarette. I sucked in a mouthful of air and said, "Secretary Zhang, immediately organize a dozen of your men. You can have the attendants, civil servants, chefs, and seven other cars. I'll lead the way and find a way to lure out the reactionaries and capture them all. At the same time, you send someone to get in touch with ImpSec quickly and filter through the suspicious correspondence records you've been listening to for the last two days to see if you can find any leads to insider outreach. Fifteen minutes later, our plan of action and plan remained the same, and the head team continued on their way to the airport. "

Secretary Zhang: "Is that alright?"

I said, "It will work. There's not much time left, let's hurry up and make our move! "

...

After hanging up the walkie-talkie, I stubbed out my cigarette and filtered the impromptu plan of action in my mind. After confirming that it was feasible, I started to increase the throttle. You Meng, who was on the Copilot, looked at me foolishly, as if he was being baffled and said: "It's really strange. I don't understand. Is it the Secretary Zhang leading you, or you leading the Secretary Zhang? Hearing the tone of your conversation, it seems like Secretary Zhang is following your train of thought. "

I replied without looking back, "This kind of thing requires decisiveness. Otherwise, the consequences and the hidden dangers would be unimaginable."

You Meng said: "What I admire the most is how you are able to remain calm …"

I hastily interrupted her and said smilingly, "Enough! After the danger is resolved, it won't be too late for you to be infatuated with me!"

"Awesome!" You Meng laughed and scolded. He quickly took out a handgun from his pocket, held it tightly and loaded the bullets with "ka ka" sounds.

With one hand on the steering wheel and the other taking out the 77 handgun, I stuffed the condom into my armpit, put some strength into it, clicked it twice, loaded the bullet, and then used my thumb to temporarily turn off the safety.

"It can't be, can it?" You Meng looked at me in disbelief. Obviously, she was shocked by my original 'armpit' loading motion.

There is no helping it, when danger comes, we can only meet it head-on, unable to escape.

Most of the time, you have to use weapons.
