Chapter 40 Old Zhang, do you want Katyusha or not?

Mongolian airport

"If it weren't for Dr. Xu's righteous intervention, the consequences would have been unimaginable. Dr. Xu, couldn't you stay for a couple of days so we could show you some hospitality?"

After Xu Lin disembarked and completed various formalities and a brief investigation, the two Mongolian diplomats from the plane, Khurichi and Chaolu, sincerely extended an invitation to him, one on his left and one on his right.

"Thank you both for your kind invitation. There was a real emergency at home that forced me to rush back from the Soviet Union. Otherwise, I definitely would have wanted to experience Mongolian cuisine, and you would have slaughtered cattle and sheep for me, hahaha!" Xu Lin shook hands with the two men, laughing heartily.

Upon hearing Xu Lin's words, the two knew they couldn't persuade him to stay this time and had no choice but to give up.

The two then personally saw Xu Lin off at the airport, thanked him again, exchanged contact addresses, and then disembarked.

After parting ways with the two, Xu Lin finally embarked on his journey home again. However, the hijacking incident delayed the trip, which originally took about four hours from Ulaanbaatar to Beijing, by more than four hours.

The original plan was to arrive at Beijing Airport at 4 PM, but Xu Lin didn't get off the plane until 9 PM. Xu Lin had assumed that Zhang Feng, the head of the security department who had taken him to the airport, might not pick him up, and was still worried about how to get home.

As soon as Xu Lin exited the airport, he saw Zhang Feng, who had arranged his travel route abroad, standing in front of a car waving at him. Xu Lin quickly walked over.

"Director Zhang, do you have some kind of extraordinary ability? I don't even know what time I'll arrive in Beijing, and you've managed to wait for me. Have you been waiting here since the day I arrived...?"

When Xu Lin arrived in front of Zhang Feng, he started joking. Hearing Xu Lin's tone, Zhang Feng guessed that the trip to the Soviet Union had likely achieved its goal, so even the usually stern old man started joking with Xu Lin on their first meeting.

"We did stay here for a week, if it weren't for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs telling us that two diplomats from Inner Mongolia called them."

And I thanked a doctor named Xu Lin for his heroic act of outsmarting terrorists on the plane, displaying incredible skill in fighting three opponents single-handedly. I almost got impatient and left today…”

Hearing Zhang Feng's words, Xu Lin knew that the other party also knew about what had happened on the plane. Thinking that this would make handling the Katyusha issue much easier, he didn't continue the conversation with Zhang Feng and simply handed over the suitcase he was carrying.

"These are the clinical trial vaccines I brought back from my senior colleague Gu in the Soviet Union. There are about thirty doses. There's also the operating manual and process details. Director Zhang, please take a look..."

Zhang Feng had initially assumed Xu Lin's progress would be smooth, but he hadn't expected it to be this smooth! He immediately waved behind him, took the box from Xu Lin, and handed it to a man in his thirties who was jogging over from a distance, instructing him...

"You must deliver this box to Health Minister Zhao Yanbin immediately, and then stay with him for the next few days until the clinical results are available. Report back to me as soon as possible. Remember, be extremely careful!"

"Yes!" The middle-aged man replied simply, then immediately took the box and carried out Zhang Feng's instructions.

After watching the person walk away, Zhang Feng turned to Xu Lin and smiled, "Alright, Dr. Xu. You really worked hard this time, completing the mission brilliantly. If this vaccine is truly effective, you'll have done a great service! Let's go, I'll take you home first!"

Xu Lin nodded in agreement and got into Zhang Feng's car. He and Zhang Feng sat in the back seat, and just as the driver was about to start the car, Xu Lin called for a stop.

"Wait a minute, driver!"

Then, under Zhang Feng's questioning gaze, Xu Lin took out a cigarette and handed it to him, gesturing with his eyes that he wanted the driver to move away so he could speak to him privately.

Zhang Feng immediately realized that Xu Lin probably had something important to say to him privately, so he waved to the driver and accepted the cigarette Xu Lin offered.

The driver saw Zhang Feng's gesture in the rearview mirror, got out of the car without saying a word, closed the door, and stood guard two meters away.

After the driver had walked away, Xu Lin took out a match, lit it with a hiss, and first held the flame to Zhang Feng's mouth. Zhang Feng, with a cigarette in his mouth, leaned in, took a deep drag, and then patted Xu Lin's hand. Xu Lin, taking advantage of the flame before it went out, lit his own cigarette.

Under Zhang Feng's watchful gaze, Xu Lin took a deep drag of his cigarette, then slowly exhaled the smoke. After organizing his thoughts, Xu Lin met Zhang Feng's gaze and began to speak.

"How much do you know about the hijacking of my plane today?"

Zhang Feng didn't answer Xu Lin's question immediately; he thought for a while before giving his answer.

"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs was the first to learn of this news, and what they knew was what I just told you: diplomats from Inner Mongolia thanked you for your courageous act."

After I found out, I contacted a few people. They didn't have much information either, but what they did have in certainty was that all three robbers had been silenced...

Hearing this, Xu Lin breathed a sigh of relief. It was within Xu Lin's expectations that the hijackers would be silenced. Xu Lin did not believe that the three of them would hijack a plane for no reason; they must have been instructed by someone.

The key point is that I don't know much about China. Knowing that you don't know much makes things easier for me, I said seriously...

"I don't know why, but there were quite a few Soviet and Mongolian officials on this plane. The person who called our Ministry of Foreign Affairs was probably one of the two Mongolian diplomats who were kidnapped on the plane."

The crucial point is that on the plane, when they hijacked it, the hijackers originally intended to land the plane on the border between us and the Soviet Union.

And in order to make sure I died knowing why, they even mentioned that some people didn't want us to get along too well with our neighbors...

Zhang Feng smoked a cigarette, analyzing Xu Lin's words and considering various possibilities. After a long while, he finally voiced his conjecture.

"Although it's a clumsy attempt to sow discord, it will indeed cause us a lot of trouble at this stage. Perhaps your encounter is not a coincidence, but rather someone deliberately waiting for the day when a member of the new China will be on a plane."

This way, they can establish contact with us and give us leverage. After all, with no one left to testify, if a conspirator were to sow discord among us, our situation would indeed be very passive…”

Xu Lin was dumbfounded. "No, brother! Is it really that complicated? I didn't think that much about it!" Indeed, it seems professional matters should be handled by professionals. So Xu Lin readily agreed.

"You're right, that's exactly what I meant. But it's not that simple; they're doing this to achieve a second goal..."

"The second purpose?" Zhang Feng was stunned for a moment after hearing Xu Lin's words, and asked subconsciously.

"Are they still trying to distract the Soviet and our high-ranking officials with this incident, so they can take advantage of the chaos to steal something and sell it to achieve their third objective?"

Zhang Feng was a little confused after hearing what Xu Lin said, and then asked in confusion, "Steal things to sell? Steal what things?"

Xu Lin smiled, seeing that Zhang Feng had taken the bait, and without further ado, said three words.

"Katyusha!"

Zhang Feng breathed a sigh of relief, thinking, "It's just a few Katyusha rockets, what trouble can they cause?" But Xu Lin's next words made him frown.

"According to the news I overheard before boarding the plane..."

500 Katyusha rockets and 30 rockets

"1000 Super Bazookas, 5000 rounds of ammunition," Xu Lin said, then stopped, waiting for Zhang Feng's reaction.

Zhang Feng felt a bit uneasy at this point. It wasn't fear, but rather that selling these things to multiple countries wouldn't be a problem, but selling them to a small country would indeed cause a lot of trouble. Thinking about this, Zhang Feng realized this should be his third objective.

He nodded to Xu Lin and patted him on the shoulder: "You did a great job. Your intelligence is very useful. We'll try to get the Soviet leadership's attention first."

Xu Lin grinned. "Tell the Soviet Union I'm not wasting my time." Without replying to Zhang Feng, Xu Lin finished his cigarette, stubbed it out, and then uttered a statement that would shock Zhang Feng for the rest of his life.

"Old Zhang, do you want a Katyusha? If you just say the word, I'll tell you where to bring it back..."

Zhang Feng: "…………"
