The Life of a Son-in-Law in a Courtyard House

Karlov, holding an AK47, felt his courage return as dawn broke.

Hiding behind a rock, he fired a three-shot burst directly in Yang Dalin's direction: "Bang, bang, bang..."

He shouted loudly, "Coward, you bastard, come out here!"

Come out here, let's have a showdown.

What kind of hero hides their head and tail?

Don't ask me why Yang Dalin could understand the other person; the other person was speaking Chinese.

How can a spy work if he doesn't know a foreign language?

Moreover, the other person speaks Mandarin with a slight Northeastern accent.

Yang Dalin had already noticed the other party's movements; there was no way he could be hit.

They had already hidden themselves.

He figured that since he had discovered the other party's hidden safe house, he might as well capture one of them alive.

Just report back and that's it.

But you can't hurt them, because if you do, you'll have to carry them back yourself.

Yang Dalin did not answer the other party's question, otherwise he would have revealed his exact location.

Yang Dalin took out his rifle, aimed, and fired a shot into the barrel of the other man's gun.

The well-made AK47 had its barrel completely destroyed by gunfire.

The shock caused Karlov to loosen his grip.

Seeing the damaged gun barrel, Karlov's mind cleared instantly.

This guy's a sniper? His marksmanship is amazing, I can't handle him.

Let's stop fighting and focus on saving our lives. Let's run!

Yang Dalin saw that the other party had concealed himself and run away. He didn't even pick up the AK. He wasn't in a hurry.

I'll pursue him later.

Let's take a quick look at what's in his safe house.

When Yang Dalin arrived at the cave entrance, he stored a booby trap he had set in his spatial storage. Upon entering, he found nothing of importance except some warm clothes, medicine, compressed biscuits and canned goods, various bullets, a small cooking pot, and so on.

Damn, Yang Dalin thought he'd get something good after chasing after them for so long.

Is this all you've got?

"That won't do," Yang Dalin said, closing the hole again and hanging the AK47 with its barrel already damaged on the hole.

He left another mark for himself.

He couldn't touch any of these things because he had already discovered that the police were following him.

Moving these things won't do any good.

Yang Dalin planned to send Blue Eyes on a trip to the Russians.

I didn't get anything, I'm so annoyed.

Why not take this opportunity to go and have some fun in Russia?

The space is so big, I want to go and see it.

Go there for a free shopping spree, that would be nice.

Then I'll capture this blue-eyed spy myself.

Not only can I make a contribution, but I can also go out and have some fun, and get some good stuff.

That's a good idea.

So Yang Dalin followed Karlov at a leisurely pace.

Unexpectedly, after a while, Yang Dalin caught up with him and found that the old man was making a simple ski.

They need to escape quickly.

Yang Dalin watched him making skis in the distance. Yang Dalin had more tools available, so he thought, "If you make one, I'll make one too."

Although I had never skied in my previous life, I had seen videos and knew that I was in good physical condition, so I should be able to ski for a while.

The other party wasn't very professional, and probably didn't run very fast either.

I'm not afraid of eggplants.

After a while, the two skis flew past each other through the forest.

One fled, while the other pursued at a leisurely pace.

During the day, Yang Dalin kept a distance from the other party because he had seen that the other party had just kept a submachine gun next to him.

It's probably hidden in that backpack from earlier.

The submachine gun is short and easier to conceal than the AK47.

And so, Yang Dalin chased the blue-eyed man all the way to the vicinity of the border.

It was already late afternoon, almost dark, and Yang Dalin had been chasing him all day.

Karlov didn't know why the other person didn't just kill him outright. He knew the other person's marksmanship. It felt like a cat playing with a mouse; once caught, it didn't rush to eat him, but let him go first, and then caught him again to play around.

Karlov has given up and is exhausted.

Whatever, I'll be fine once I cross the border.

He took out food and drinks from his backpack, preparing to eat and drink his fill before running back in one go.

There's no rush to cross the border right now.

He noticed a large number of patrols at the border and was waiting until it was completely dark.

He could only sneak back quietly, not daring to be discovered by the border guards.

The Chinese soldiers on the border wouldn't care about you. If you were spotted by them and showed any intention of running north, they would definitely shoot you dead.

He then explained that he had failed his mission and had no identification on him, so he could only quietly return and report to his superiors.

Moreover, you need to find a leader who trusts you, otherwise, an internal audit will be conducted first, and you'll be finished.

Yang Dalin discovered that the blue-eyed man clearly crossed the border frequently. He had a clear understanding of our border guards' patrol patterns, found loopholes, and found places that were very well hidden and easy to cross to the other side.

Moreover, there was no one patrolling that area.

Yang Dalin easily crossed the border by following behind him.

At that time, there were no barbed wire fences or large minefields along the border.

It's easy to think about the past.

Karlov crossed the border, and before he could even feel happy, that familiar feeling returned.

Damn it, this guy even came to his own country with me.

Okay, so you're going to play it this way? Fine, I'll personally lead you to the KGB branch in our nearest city.

Let's see how you hide.

It won't work to lure the other side directly to the vicinity of their outpost.

Once he reveals his identity, he will not only lose face among the border troops.

Moreover, there are usually not many people at border checkpoints, so if you can't catch the other side, you're doomed.

So Karlov had no choice but to continue on his way.

He needed to get to a nearby city quickly and then find an opportunity to capture the other party alive.

I must catch him myself.

Torture the other person to death.

They also need to find out what kind of machines the convoy was carrying.

Is there some secret?

If it can manufacture weapons, then he would have made a great contribution.

The Russian side is even more sparsely populated and far from the nearest city.

It's too dangerous for me to keep walking; I need to find a car.

That's the only way to be safe.

So Karlov headed straight for a mine he knew.

He had no identification, which made explaining the situation difficult, and for his own safety, he planned to steal a car for transportation.

That way, you won't have to worry about encountering wild animals at night.

It also saves energy.

Yang Dalin followed him all the way to a mine.

Yang Dalin thought this was their hidden base, but he found out that this guy had stolen a car and was preparing to run away.

Do you think Yang Dalin will let him off so easily?

He also stole a car with a full tank of gas, and without turning on the headlights, he chased after the other person.

This is a small coal mine, nothing of value. It's too cold outside, and there's nobody around.

They're all hiding inside.

There were many coal blocks piled up outside. Yang Dalin, adhering to the principle of not wasting any, took the opportunity to collect some, but did not dare to carry too much.

He thought he should leave more space so that the group could see if there was a chance to get more things.

Some of the coal is worthless and not worth his time.
