1126 The truth
Baldachev was stunned for a moment and smiled and said, "How do you know that the Americans have not found them? Maybe they are already in the United States at this moment."
Ivan shook his head and said, "This may disappoint you. This is impossible because the Americans are still looking for them everywhere, and these people and our people have already had some conflicts."
"Conflict?" Baldachev said with some surprise: "To find a conflict with them? Shooting?"
"Yes." Ivan said: "And there have been casualties."
"Haha." Baldachev laughed at this, and seemed to be very happy. He smiled for a while before saying, "Sorry, this is the ridiculous joke I have heard over the years. Maybe I am already out of date. When can everyone attack each other without a bottom line? What is your purpose? Is it my woman and child or mutual revenge?"
"Of course it was the mother and daughter." Ivan said immediately.
"But your behavior is like a group of social gangs. No matter what it is, kill all those who are blocking the way. Are you expecting each other to take you to find what you want?" asked Baldachev.
Ivan sighed slightly and said, "This matter is not what we discussed. The action was not my command, so I don't know what happened specifically, the planner and commander's considerations and purpose at that time. I only know what has happened and what can be determined through this matter."
"It's just that the Americans didn't find them either?" Baldachev said, "So you still want to ask me if it was arranged by me, and it was a secret arrangement that the Americans also didn't know?"
"It seems like this at the moment." Ivan said: "Otherwise, how can I explain the current situation?"
Baldachev smiled and shook his head slightly, "What is the reason for me to do this? I mean you think I have a special arrangement that concealed the arrangements of the Intelligence Agency. What is my purpose or motivation?"
Ivan shrugged and said, "It's very strange. Maybe you're for some kind of security? Actually, I think you don't trust the Intelligence Agency. Although you are still from the Intelligence Agency, you don't trust it. Don't rush to deny it. I'm not talking nonsense. In fact, people like us no longer need to talk nonsense. That's not only insulting the other party, but also insulting yourself." Ivan said, and looked at Baldachev carefully and said, "Although you haven't clearly expressed your dissatisfaction, I can feel that emotion from your words and deeds. How do you say it? Tired? Tired? Even if you no longer think where you belong, you seem to be more concerned about who you are."
Ivan's words made Baldachev feel nervous. If I had really made him nervous since his arrest, maybe it was the passage Ivan said just now. The reason is very simple, that is, Ivan's passage was like an inadvertent sentence that directly touched him. Over the years, he has indeed forgotten the so-called Intelligence Agency, or the concept of the Intelligence Agency is already very vague to him. He is no longer the young man who was recruited, but a middle-aged Russian who has experienced the drastic changes in Eastern Europe, successfully survived this era, and became a government official. His intelligence work has long been not the focus of his life. He has been doing some things mechanically over the years. For those of the Intelligence Agency, he is not even willing to see them.
After being caught, he calmly thought about everything he had done over the years, and some of the conclusions he came to were similar to what Ivan said. This was also the most important reason why he violated the instructions of the Intelligence Bureau at the most dangerous time and turned to Slonim and wanted to transfer his women and children.
"What do you think? Mr. Baldachev. Are you saying I'm right?" Ivan asked as he looked at Baldachev.
Although Baldachev felt uncomfortable at this moment, he did not show it on the surface. He still said calmly: "What do you mean is that because of this, I made a series of arrangements, both avoiding you and the Intelligence Bureau?"
"I think that's the case." Ivan said: "Although you explained it before, we also think it's reasonable. But at present, without the help of a third party, it would be impossible for us to find it completely with the mother and daughter alone, and it was a situation where there was no clue at all. So we can only look back and think about whether it was you who made the arrangements that someone secretly took them away from the eyes of the Belarusians."
Baldachev smiled and said, "You seem to have overestimated me all the time. Shouldn't you think about why you didn't keep me together if I had that ability?"
"No." Ivan waved his hand and said, "Actually, we didn't know exactly where you were. If we hadn't gained some gains in the previous actions, I think you should be able to leave Slonim smoothly."
"In fact, my plan is just that." Baldachev smiled bitterly and said, "Sometimes all I really need is luck. Luck can make a simple plan successful or a perfect plan worthless. Unfortunately, my luck was not very good that day. But I have to say that I have other arrangements... No. I never make up. If there is one, I will admit it, but I won't tell you what it is. Just like the ones you wanted to know before, I don't want you to know, you can't know."
"That means, you don't know what happened to them afterwards and where they went? Do you mean you don't know at all?" Ivan continued to ask.
Baldachev looked at Ivan and said, "Yes, I don't know. In fact, I really want to know. No one wants to know more than me what they went through that day and where they went now. Unfortunately, you can't answer me for this question."
