After completing the final assessment of the skydiving course, and returning to the abandoned military base, Teacher Dalia uncharacteristically praised Wei Ran and Jima, and rarely found any fault with them. This unnatural scene made Wei Ran and Jima beat in their hearts.
Outside the abandoned military base, the two of them watched Dalia flying the An-2 aircraft painted in the red flag forest farm soaring upward, and they did not come back to their senses for a while.
Jima rubbed his sore neck, "Victor, am I not dreaming? Just now, Teacher Dalia praised me for my talent as an airborne soldier?"
"It's us, not you." Wei Ran corrected miserably. Although Teacher Dalia seemed to be much easier to talk to than Culp, it was not easy to get her praise.
"You two have time to discuss these useless things here, why not complete the last skydive as soon as possible."
Ali, who was standing not far from the two of them, held him in his arms. The door of the plane reminded, "Don't forget, Teacher Dalia asked me to randomly drop you 20 kilometers around the military base, and then you have to rush back by yourself before four o'clock this afternoon."
"Otherwise we will have to go back to Inta by ourselves"
Misha in the cabin reminded, "Not only will Victor not be able to catch the flight back to Kazan, but you, Jima, will also not be able to make it tomorrow. Those tourists from China are here."
"Let's go! Don't waste time!"
When Ji Ma heard that it might delay his career, he immediately paid attention. There was no need to quarrel with Wei Ran, and the latter was more anxious than him. He couldn't wait to return home as soon as possible.
When the two of them got into the plane carrying the parachutes they had folded not long ago, Alili immediately started the plane and took off and circled around the abandoned military base. According to Teacher Dalia’s previous request, Alili put the The two of them were randomly airdropped to the north and south directions of the military base.
"Alili, safe landing."
After landing, the satellite retracted its parachute skillfully, and at the same time did not forget to communicate on the radio with the aircraft still circling overhead.
"See you at the military base," Alili responded to Weiran while already controlling the plane to fly to the area where he was going to drop Jima.
Waiting patiently for no longer hearing the roar of the plane, Weiran did not rush to set off. Instead, he took out a red scarf from his bag and chose a tree with its back on the hillside, which looked pleasing to the eye. , a pine tree of suitable thickness was tied to it.
After retreating a full kilometer on his skis, Wei Ran looked above his head again to make sure there was no plane staring at him, and then he took out the anti-tank gun from the metal book.
Both expected and unexpected, while the sight that Alexander got from Alexander half a month ago became brand new, all the inscriptions on it representing the manufacturer and serial number had also disappeared. .
Stomping the two large frames into the thick snow, Wei Ran sat down on the umbrella bag and reached out to hold the frames.The anti-tank gun on the gun carriage, expertly cranked three turns to the left and three to the right to open the bolt, then gently moved the muzzle, and used the crosshair of the high-magnification scope to catch the man wearing a red scarf one kilometer away. pine.
I have to admit that although this sight made by Switzerland during the war years is heavy and fancy, it is very effective. Even from such a distance, you can see clearly.
With a crisp "click" sound, Weiran pulled the bolt release button, and a tracer bullet was pushed into the barrel of the gun.
"Boom!"
Amidst the dull gunfire, the tracer bullet with a bright tail penetrated into the snow about ten meters away from the pine tree. Covered hillsides.
Gently twisting the adjustment knob, Wei Ran aimed at the pine tree again and pulled the trigger. Under Wei Ran's repetition, the fourth tracer bullet finally hit the thigh-thick pine tree hard. The vibration caused by the huge kinetic energy directly caused the pine tree that was shot to shake off the snow on the crown. .
However, Weiran was not satisfied. Instead, he took the time to repeatedly change the ammunition types and matching muzzle brakes. It wasn't until the pine tree was interrupted with armor-piercing bullets and high-explosive bombs that he took back the anti-tank gun with satisfaction, picked up the shell casing, and then continued to retreat one kilometer on his skis.
He set up the artillery truck again and shot all the types of ammunition he had at the half tree stump. Only then was he satisfied with cleaning up the scene, and rushed towards the abandoned military base on his skis. .
Today is already the 30th, and he can’t miss the evening flight. After all, even if he wants to go back to the country right away to kill the anti-tank, he still has to abide by the agreement and deal with Alexander first. That interview will do. On the other hand, he was also planning to complete Noah's commission as soon as possible before going back, so as not to worry about it all the time.
While thinking about the itinerary for the next half month, Weiran also returned to the abandoned military base.
Although the distance of 20 kilometers is far, fortunately, the time is long enough, and there are skis. In addition, in the past few days, almost every time I went back after skydiving, so no matter what For Wei Ran or Ji Ma, although this journey is tiring, it is no longer a challenge.
The last day in Inta ended successfully. Weiran said goodbye to Jima who was going to stay in Inta to receive Chinese tourists. After notifying Ralf in Germany, he took the flight alone. Back to the studio in Volgograd.
The first thing I did when I came back was to naturally replace the ammunition of the anti-tank gun with the 70 rounds that came with it in the ammunition box and magazine when I got it. After all, the things I bought later with my money were all "new goods" from the 1980s, and there is a high possibility that they will not be brought back to the World War II period.
As for the second thing, he was invited to participate in the television interview with Alexander as a guest. This is not a big deal, and Dalia was informed in advance and approved by Inta.
And the interview itself was surprisingly simple and relaxed. Alexander seemed to just want to show off his connections and had no intention of taking credit for discovering the photo.
After repaying the favor, Alexander did not let Wei Ran leave directly. Instead, he gave him a small gift.
"What is this?"
At the other party's signal, Wei Ran opened the plastic box on the table, and then discovered that it contained a silencer with a front sight. gun and a threaded barrel.
"Remember the pistol I gave you last time?"
Alexander smiled and said, "Replace this barrel with my gun modification work. The latest silencer produced by the company, remember to give me some feedback on how to use it."
"Then I'm welcome"
Weiran happily accepted this small gift. At the same time, I also remembered another thing, so I asked along the topic, "Mr. Alexander, I wonder if you have the spare magazine for that pistol?"
"Of course, how much do you want?" ?" Alexander asked with interest.
"If it's convenient...10?"
Wei Ran said rather embarrassedly. Although his food box only has two layers, each layer has " "The height" is not low, and it is enough to put the pistol magazine vertically, which can save a lot of space. As for whether changing the magazine can bring back the former battlefield, naturally only by trying it will we know.
"Federer, go get 10 pistol magazines." Alexander said happily to Federer's manager who was standing behind him.
Hearing this, the latter immediately walked into the back room of the gun modification studio, and soon took out ten magazines.
After taking the magazine, Wei Ran was naturally grateful, but at the same time, he declined the invitation to have lunch with him on the pretext that he had to catch a flight to Finland.
After leaving Alexander's private museum with gifts, Weiran drove the car across the Volga River, immediately stopped by the roadside, took out the pistol in the metal book, and put the threaded gun The pipe was replaced and then the silencer was screwed on.
"I hope I can put it in!" Wei Ran nervously took out the metal book, opened it, and tentatively put the pistol with a silencer in.
"It's done!"
The pistol floating in the red vortex immediately made him relax. This was a big surprise for Wei Ran. Don't look at it. It's just an extra silencer, but it might save lives at some point.
Withdrawing his pistol again, Wei Ran took out the food box and pressed all the bullets on the first floor into the magazine he just came from. In this way, half of the space on the first floor was successfully cleared, which was enough for him to put some seasonings that could stew stinky insoles into delicious food.
Satisfied, Weiran started the car again, drove straight to the airport, and boarded the flight to Finland.
After a long and difficult timeAfter a boring flight and transfer, it was already the morning of Labor Day when the flight finally landed at Kittilä Airport, and Ralph, who had arrived here in advance, had already been waiting for a long time.
"Did you bring your pocket watch and the ink-stained ID?" Wei Ran asked the question he was most concerned about after seeing the other party.
"Bring it, bring it all."
Ralph, with his messy hair, quickly raised the briefcase in his hand, "The car is rented, tomorrow night The flight ticket to China from this airport has been bought for you."
"Then don't waste time, let's go now!" Wei Ran urged, he didn't want to waste too much time here. Much time.
"Follow me!" Ralph was obviously more urgent than Wei Ran. He led him into a car in the parking lot and immediately started the car.
The distance between the left and right is only 80 kilometers, and it was just noon when the car drove to Muonio. However, no matter how much Ralph asked along the way, Wei Ran said nothing about the investigation process, even though he had already thought of an excuse.
"Victor, do we want to have lunch first?" Ralph asked while waiting for the red light. He rushed here early this morning, but in order to wait for the gas , but I have never eaten seriously.
“No need”
Sitting in the co-pilot, Weiran stared at the navigation and shook his head, “We’ll be there soon, turn right at the next intersection and drive until you reach the Muonio River. "Ralph nodded helplessly. After the light turned green, he immediately stepped on the accelerator and drove to the door of an old-looking small hotel by the river under Wei Ran's guidance.
