But it absolutely cannot fall into other people's hands. Keeping it in his own possession is the safest option. Although he had worn down the rifling, there were still some subtle signs of alteration. He worried that if the gun fell into the wrong hands, a careful inspection would reveal the signs! Of course, the chances of that happening were extremely slim!
Therefore, he had to keep this sidearm, which is why he came to Cui Guohao to get another sidearm.
"So that's what it was about. It's not a big deal! What kind of unit is our Military Intelligence Department? What kind of equipment do we have? Do we need your pistol?" Cui Guohao said nonchalantly. "It's just getting one more! Actually, Zhiheng, you haven't been here long enough to understand some things. Let me explain it to you properly!"
Many officers in our department have applied for a second gun. This is not a new thing. Because of the special nature of the work of the Military Intelligence Investigation Department, there are many situations where multiple guns are needed. So as long as the reason for the application is reasonable, it is allowed to issue an extra gun.
In fact, some officers even have more than two sidearms. To be honest, I myself have two sidearms—one on my person and one at home, just in case!
Upon hearing this, Ning Zhiheng realized that it was possible to legally apply for more guns, which made the matter simpler than he had imagined. He happily said, "That's great! Get me another one! A Type 90 Browning, I'm used to this model, it's easy for me to use!"
Cui Guohao laughed heartily, slapped the table, and said cheerfully, "One isn't enough! Wasn't your original one worn out? Keep it as a souvenir! I'll give you another one, two Browning pistols, brand new! Only one will be registered in the register!"
After saying that, he said meaningfully, "Keep one as a spare. People in our line of work have to be careful! It makes things easier! Zhiheng, if you need a gun again, come to me. They're all the best new guns, with clean records. Never get guns from the black market. The guns there are not clean, it's troublesome, and you're likely to get into trouble!"
Cui Guohao is no fool. Anyone who can reach this position in a unit like the Military Intelligence Investigation Department must be extremely shrewd!
This is nothing new in the Military Intelligence Investigation Service. This department has far too many shady dealings. Many operatives are unwilling to use their sidearms for certain unspeakable missions.
He encountered an even stranger situation: an intelligence officer, due to psychological reasons, killed someone with his service weapon and then kept requesting to change his gun because he felt it was too menacing, which annoyed him to no end!
As the action team leader of the action section, Ning Zhiheng will inevitably have many more missions like this in the future, but it's never a bad thing to have an extra gun!
"Thank you so much! That's exactly what I wanted!" Ning Zhiheng was overjoyed to hear Cui Guohao's words. Two guns were available, and only one was registered! This solved his big problem. In the future, if there were similar gunfights, he could use the extra pistol without worrying about anyone being able to trace him!
He dared not ask Cui Guohao to change the serial number of his service weapon. Even a fool would know that Ning Zhiheng had used the weapon for something he couldn't let others know. That would be like protesting too much!
Cui Guohao told him to wait a moment, and after a short while, he returned with two brand-new Browning pistols. Ning Zhiheng took them and tried them out; they felt just as comfortable as the previous one.
Cui Guohao personally handled the formalities for him, only registering the gun serial number. This wouldn't normally require a lieutenant colonel like himself to do it. But since it was Ning Zhiheng's matter, he naturally wanted to handle it personally to show his closeness!
