Chapter 1014 2 Bad News
Marina Ivanovna Nikolaeva, Italian-Russian, late wife of General Nikolaev and mother of Natasha.
The Russian-Georgian war broke out on August 8, 2008. It was also the same day that Marina, who was engaged in intelligence collection work in Georgia, was found dead in the hotel where she was staying by the Tbilisi police. Items were eventually identified as Russian intelligence personnel.
Because the war ended in less than a week, the news was never made public. After the ceasefire agreement was signed, the Georgian government returned Marina's body to Russia along with the remains of other Russian fallen soldiers.
In the end, Marina was buried in the Preobrazhensky Cemetery on the outskirts of Moscow together with other Russian soldiers who died in Georgia. Nikolaev took 15-year-old Natasha to his mother's funeral. Since then, the relationship between father and daughter has deteriorated extremely.
As for the cause of Marina's death, it is said that she was shot in the head with a pistol, but there is no more information to provide evidence for the specific reason why she was shot.
A whole day had passed since Natasha left. When Ayesha reported the investigated information to Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen frowned slightly.
"You hate your father because of your mother's death? I always feel like something doesn't make sense here."
"Maybe it's because of Marina's death." Ayesha analyzed.
"You mean... Marina was killed by her husband Nikolaev? One is the commander of the 58th Army, and the other is an agent of the Russian Security Service. The two work fields are completely different from each other. Nikolayev Does Korayev have a reason to do this?" Jiang Chen leaned on the chair, rubbed his sore brows, and said with a headache, "Speaking of which, what I am most curious about is what on earth the bearded general thought. , will find a secret agent as his wife, and one who works in the field."
Aisha walked behind Jiang Chen, put her hands on his shoulders, and gently massaged his shoulders, trying to relieve his fatigue.
"Perhaps, marrying Marina was not his original intention."
Jiang Chen's eyes lit up, but then dimmed again. He shook his head and said, "This doesn't make sense. Nikolaev is still unmarried, and with his status, there should be no shortage of suitors. Unless he likes men, it doesn't make sense... …”
There were too few clues, and the only thing he could confirm now was that Natasha had probably been tracking down the cause of her mother's death in the past few years, and this sudden disappearance was probably related to this. As for whether Marina's death is related to her husband Nikolaev, or what role Nikolaev played in her death, it is temporarily unknown.
Enjoying the massage of two small hands on my shoulders,
Jiang Chen closed his eyes slightly and tapped his fingers gently on the armrest of the sofa.
"Could the clue be in Georgia?" Ayesha suddenly said, "If we send someone to the hotel where the incident happened..."
"It's useless, it's been eleven years," Jiang Chen shook his head, "It's better to go to the local police station than to that hotel, but I estimate that after the ceasefire agreement is signed, all the evidence and Marina's personal belongings should be gone. Along with her body, she was extradited to the Russian Federal Security Service. A trip to Georgia would be better than going to Moscow."
"That……"
"I know what you want to say, but I forbid you to do so. Our relationship with Russia is now in the honeymoon period, and any move that may cause misunderstanding is quite unwise."
Regarding the news of Natasha's disappearance, Jiang Chen hesitated and ultimately did not make it public. Not to mention whether the Russian Federal Security Service will go deep into Ukraine to find someone because of an AWOL agent. No one can guarantee that there is a Masonic spy in any part of Russia. Leaking the news may increase her influence at the border. Head danger.
As for how long it can be hidden, it can only be one day.
Originally, he planned to return to the new country after the military base was completed, but this turned out to be a good thing. Natasha suddenly disappeared, which directly disrupted his plan. There was no way he would leave her alone before confirming her safety.
"How many of us are there in Ukraine? I mean ghosts." Jiang Chen suddenly looked at Ayesha and asked.
"There are only two people. Guinevere is mainly responsible for the intelligence in Ukraine. Now our European intelligence work is focused on Western Europe... Do you need me to contact her to send more people?" Ayesha said.
"No, she also needs manpower." Jiang Chen stood up from the sofa, "We will transfer people directly from the headquarters."
"Transfer people directly from the headquarters? But is this too late?" Ayesha asked doubtfully.
"It's definitely too late to enter the country normally, but we can go directly to the synchronous track."
…
In a village in the northwest of Donetsk city, dilapidated houses are everywhere, and there is no trace of living people. Already at the beginning of the war, residents here sought refuge in towns to the north. Both Ukrainian government troops and civilian armed forces have been stationed here. Judging from the torn apart walls, it seems that this place has been hit by many shells.
Wearing a brown windbreaker and her long blond hair tied into a ponytail, Natasha, dressed as an independent journalist, carried a travel bag and walked quickly through the rubble, while not forgetting to carefully watch for the shadows in the corners.
After turning a few corners in the ruins of the town, she soon arrived at the appointment location.
The one who contacted her was still Skanov, who was wearing a Ukrainian military uniform, but was actually an officer serving Moscow.
When he saw Natasha, Skarnov grinned and stepped forward to meet her.
"Where's the stuff?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a package of documents was thrown over.
After catching the documents thrown by Natasha, Skanov opened the cover of the document package and took out the documents. He glanced at the words on them, and there was a hint of surprise on his expression, but very quickly. The stool quickly returned to normal.
"Is this the last document?" After scanning the document roughly, Skarnov stuffed the document into his arms and looked at Natasha and said.
"Yes, the organization recommends that you evacuate to the rear in the near future. It is better to be injured or something than to die on the battlefield."
"Even if the organization doesn't suggest so, I will do it." Skarnov smiled, "Did you hear what happened the night before yesterday? Five hours before and after, two entire airborne brigades were deployed in Donets In the northern suburbs of Ukraine, there was no response from the radars in the entire Ukraine. It was the European Space Agency that first discovered those little guys and reported them as a meteor shower. Wow, speaking of which, is it better to drag people from the Star Ring trade into this muddy water? My idea, I don’t know if they will award me the Order of St. George when I return to China... By the way, where are my cigars?"
Usually when Natasha came to meet him, she would bring a box of cigars for her father to his old friend.
"I left in a bit of a hurry and didn't go to his place," Natasha said after a pause, "Do you have any clues about the matter I asked you to investigate?"
"I almost forgot if you didn't tell me," Skarnov made a surprised expression, patted his head, and looked at Natasha with a smile, "There are two bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" (Unfinished) To be continued.) Activate new URL
