Sitting in the car, Fang Lang looked at the professor's yard and said to Qi Qingshan, who was sitting in the passenger seat:
"After we arrange for someone to pick up the professor and his wife, we will arrange for the two brothers to go into the professor's house and look for the professor's basement.
See what you can find. Remember, no matter what you see, don't take any action. Come back and report to me immediately. I will decide what to do next."
Qi Qingshan was stunned when he heard Fang Lang's order. He couldn't understand why Fang Lang, who was just chatting and laughing with others, suddenly arranged for people to sneak into other people's homes to search.
However, his duty as a soldier made him say reflexively:
"Yes, sir."
After answering, Qi Qingshan wanted to ask why, but seeing Fang Lang lost in thought, he wisely chose to shut his mouth.
Around six o'clock in the evening, in an Italian restaurant that was still open in Aachen, Germany, Professor Kent and his wife were sitting opposite Fang Lang, talking and laughing.
"Professor, I wonder what you were doing before you became a professor at Aachen University?"
...
...
As they chatted, Fang Lang turned the topic to the professor's previous job.
Perhaps because too many people have asked about this topic, the professor said casually:
"Before this, I was doing theoretical research on machine tools at the University of Munich. However, our laboratory serves the government, so the confidentiality level is relatively high. I'm sorry I can't be too specific."
My goodness, there is actually a confidentiality level. The Third Reich has already collapsed, and you are still talking about confidentiality levels.
What I mean is, this is a secret.
There is also confidential research on machine tools, and you are also a talent.
I almost thought you were researching atomic bombs.
The more they talked, the more Fang Lang felt that there was something wrong with the two people in front of him.
Fang Lang never took the initiative to discuss with the other party how much salary to give him every month, and the other party didn't seem to be in a hurry.
However, Fang Lang always found this very strange.
However, since he had already arranged for people to investigate the professor and his wife's home, he had no way of knowing whether it was his illusion until the results came out.
All they could do was to flatter the professor in various ways at the dinner table, and at the same time, quietly urge the professor and his wife to drink.
Originally, Fang Lang's original intention was to get the professor and his wife drunk so as to buy more time for the soldiers who were going to investigate their home.
As a result, as the professor and his wife drank more and more, they naturally started to talk more and actively began to talk about their opinions on certain things.
Although the two did not reveal any specific information, Fang Lang quickly judged from the gossips told by the professor's wife that the professor's wife might have been a farmer in the countryside.
As for the possibility that the professor is an ordinary technical worker, it is very likely that the ordinary technicians in Germany also have a high school education, so for people of this era, they can also be regarded as educated people.
This made Fang Lang even more certain that his guess was correct.
At the same time, at Professor Kurt's house, a big man had entered the house through the backyard window.
Under the light of the flashlight, we began to look around, because the order was very clear, to find the basement of the house and sneak in to see what was going on inside.
Therefore, the big man was very efficient. He scanned the interior layout with a flashlight and then groped directly towards the stairwell.
Because the basement is usually located near the stairwell, as expected, there is a small locked door under the stairs on the first floor.
This small door obviously couldn't stop the person coming. He took out a small tool he carried with him and opened the small door in no time. After walking down the stairs a few steps, there was another door.
However, the switch of this door is on the outside, obviously to prevent someone from opening it from the inside.
After opening the door, the big man smelled an unpleasant smell of urine, which made him think he had come to the toilet.
But I saw a wooden barrel at the door of the basement, and there was some excrement in the barrel.
There was a dim electric light on the right wall, and under the light was a large drawing table with an unfinished drawing on the table.
There is a small shelf on the left, on which are placed many rolls of drawings.
There is a small single wooden bed against the left wall. A man with long hair and beard is lying on it. It is impossible to tell his age.
The man's left leg was tied with a pair of shackles. The chain of the shackles hung on the ground and was connected to an iron hook on the ground in the middle of the basement.
Obviously this is a small prison cell. Judging from the man's hair and beard, it can be seen that the man has been imprisoned here for at least four years.
The big man was obviously shocked when he saw the scene, but he did not act rashly.
I heard the man snoring softly and judged that he must be asleep.
He was about to turn around and leave, but after thinking for a moment, he went back into the room, took out a roll of drawings from the shelf in the basement, then gently closed the door and left.
What he didn't notice was that after he closed the door, the man lying on the bed slowly opened his eyes, with a nervous look on his face, and looked at the closed door with evasive eyes.
The big man quickly retreated from Professor Kent's house along the same route and came to a car parked on the side of the road.
When the people in the car saw him come out, they didn't say a word, but quietly started the car and left the scene.
Soon, Fang Lang, who was eating in the restaurant, saw Qi Qingshan nodding to him from a distance.
Fang Lang found an excuse to go to the bathroom and came to Qi Qingshan.
"Boss, our people went into the basement and found a cell with a man inside. The man was sleeping. As you requested, we did not disturb him.
However, apart from a bed, this cell also had a large drawing table with unfinished drawings on it.
Our people pulled out a roll of completed drawings. Would you like to take a look at it?"
Glancing at the Kent professor and his wife who were still eating happily at the table, Fang Lang let out a chilly smile.
"Keep an eye on them while I look at the blueprints."
After saying that, he walked out. Qi Qingshan nodded, winked at someone next to him, and followed Fang Lang to an empty private room in the restaurant.
There were two soldiers waiting in the private room. When they saw Fang Lang coming in, they quickly stood up. Fang Lang nodded to them, and one of them opened the drawing on the table.
Although Fang Lang did not understand German, he was able to determine from the graphic that this was a mechanical drawing, but he did not know what specific parts were drawn on the drawing.
However, this is enough to confirm my guess.
Fang Lang showed a satisfied smile and said to Qi Qingshan beside him:
"We will send the professor and his wife home later. I want to visit the prisoners they have imprisoned."
"Yes, boss!"
Qi Qingshan took two soldiers with him, collected the drawings and left.
After washing his hands, Fang Lang returned to the dining table with a smile on his face and continued to talk to the two people as if nothing had happened.
But he stopped drinking.
Soon, the meal was over, and Fang Lang offered to personally send the Kent couple home. The professor and his wife immediately felt very valued and readily agreed.
However, in the car, Fang Lang seemed a little silent.
The Kent professor and his wife drank a little too much today, and they were still talking and laughing in the back seat, without noticing anything unusual.
After returning home, Fang Lang did not wait for the two of them, but got out of the car first and walked towards the door of the professor's house.
When the Kent couple walked to the door, they saw Fang Lang standing at the door waiting for them. The professor smiled and said:
"Mr. Fang, I am very satisfied with today's dinner. You are so enthusiastic. Just send it here."
Fang Lang smiled and said:
"Will you please let me in for a drink of water, Professor?"
Upon hearing this, the professor's wife laughed and said:
"It turns out that Mr. Fang is thirsty. Please come in quickly. I will go and get you some water."
After saying that, he walked forward and opened the door.
Fang Lang followed the two people into the room and walked directly to the main sofa in the living room. It felt like he was back home, which made the professor frown and curse in his heart: "Country bumpkin who doesn't know etiquette."
But he still had a gentle smile on his face and sat down on the sofa.
Seeing the professor's gentle smile, Fang Lang also smiled and said:
"I wonder if Professor could introduce me to the gentleman in your basement."
There was a "bang" sound as the cup of water fell to the ground. The cup that the professor's wife was holding fell directly to the ground, and the faces of the professor and his wife changed drastically.
After a while, the professor was the first to recover and said:
"Mr. Fang, I don't quite understand what you mean."
Perhaps the professor's calm words gave his wife confidence, so she immediately said sternly:
"What are you talking about, Mr. in the basement?"
Seeing the two people's stubborn expressions, Fang Lang smiled and said:
"Do you need my people to go and invite the gentleman from the basement up?"
The professor's wife immediately said in a timid tone:
"What do you want to do? This is my home. Who allowed you to mess around in my home?"
As the lady spoke, she walked towards Fang Lang, pointing her finger at him like a shrew.
Soon, a pistol was pointed at her head. The cold touch was like a talisman that instantly nailed him to the spot, and he dared not make a sound.
The professor saw his wife being pointed at by a gun, then looked at the several big men in black behind him, and said with a little fear:
"Who are you and what do you want to do?"
After hearing what the professor said, Fang Lang did not answer. Instead, he slowly took out a cigar from his pocket, cut off the cigar head, and slowly lit it with a match.
After the entire cross-section of the cigar is completely burned, take a deep breath, let the aroma circle in your mouth, and then slowly exhale.
He looked at the professor and his wife in front of him with a slightly amused expression and said:
"I am an officer of the British M16. I now suspect that you are the remnants of the Nazis."
When the two heard Fang Lang's words, their faces changed drastically, and the professor's wife even knelt on the ground and said:
"Sir, this is a misunderstanding! We are not Nazis!"
The professor's face also turned pale. He grabbed his knees with his hands, his knuckles turned white, and his legs kept shaking.
Fang Lang looked at him, and he was so scared that he shook his head repeatedly:
"Sir, this must be some misunderstanding. We are really not Nazis!"
"Then how do you explain your abuse of lynching and imprisoning others?"
The cold gaze directed at the two of them immediately made them both feel a little nervous, as if they were about to lose control of their bowels and bladder.
When the two heard Fang Lang directly talk about the situation of imprisoning others, they no longer had any hope.
The professor was so frightened that he fell off the sofa and couldn't stand up.
