Struggle in Russia - Vol 3 Chapter 704

“You told me that the commissioner of the third department has been in Bucharest for three days, and you have lost someone, and now they have nowhere to go, and you don’t know what this commissioner is here for!”

Li Xiao looked at the middle-aged man who was standing in front of him with a worried expression and felt both headache and irritability.

The man’s name was Mikhail Konstantinovich Valenov, and he was a subordinate of Count Rostovtsev. According to Count Rostovtsev, if the princess was in charge of intelligence work, her main task was to keep an eye on the secret agents who were most trusted by Nicholas I.

It’s just that this man’s work ability makes Li Xiao really not complimented, and he can lose it with everyone. It’s not ashamed to say it, and this man also plausibly said: “The main reason is that we are too unfamiliar with the streets of Bucharest… ”

Although this is an objective reason, Li Xiao still feels that this person’s abilities are limited. The most important thing is that he doesn’t like the work attitude of this guy. He obviously messed up the task, and he has a righteous posture. Are you messing it up? Are you still proud of the errand?

Li Xiao looked at him and asked questions calmly: “Then what do you mean by coming to me? Do you want me to try to find this commissioner?”

Mikhail Konstantinovich Valenoff smiled and said, “It would be best if you could find out, but this commissioner is a senior spy, very skilled, and best at hiding. The whereabouts may not be found by the half-hearted military police.”

It is quite rude to say this, it is simply pointing at Li Xiao’s nose and saying that his people are trash if they don’t do anything. In exchange for being so rude, Li Xiao directly ordered the guards to throw him out.

But who made this man of Count Rostovtsev? Li Xiao can give no face to anyone, but he must not give face to the earl. So Li Xiao didn’t say anything, just looked at Varenoff coldly to see what he wanted to do.

Varenoff continued: “Of course, if you are willing to send people to assist us, I believe it will be found soon.”

Li Xiao still didn’t say anything, and still looked at him coldly, which made Varenoff somewhat embarrassed, and after coughing twice, he continued: “Of course, even without your assistance, my people can take it out. Find it out, so this time, you are mainly to inform you that your Majesty may be paying close attention to the situation in Wallachia secretly, and you must be more careful, Your Excellency the Grand Duke!”

Li Xiao looked at Varenoff, and really wanted to kick this guy who felt a little too good about himself. Because he can’t see these things? Still need you to remind me?

But in the end he didn’t say anything, just said he knew, and then said to Valenoff: “You can search for that commissioner in Bucharest, but you’d better follow the rules of Bucharest. If your people go too far , or interfere with the normal order here, even if Count Rostovtsev personally comes to help you speak good words, I will throw you in prison until moldy!”

Varenoff was stunned for a moment, completely unexpected that Li Xiao would suddenly turn his face, because he always felt that Li Xiao and Count Rostovtsev should be in a subordinate relationship. should be respected.

But now it seems that the other party does not like or welcome him, and even threatens him. The meaning of the words is disgust and dissatisfaction. This made Varenoff also a little angry. He felt that he was here to help, and he was a guest. Li Xiao should give face if he didn’t look at the monk’s face or the Buddha’s face.

But now he felt as if he had been slapped a few times, and he was suddenly full of anger.

Of course, he didn’t dare to get angry. This stemmed from Count Rostovtsev’s lessons over the years that anyone who didn’t follow his instructions was eventually driven out, and he didn’t want to lose this promising job.

So in the face of Li Xiao’s lack of face, he could only endure: “My people are all experts, I believe they will not cause trouble. But I must remind you to pay attention, Your Excellency, that professional is very difficult to deal with. If Because of your mistakes, the interests of His Excellency Count Rostovtsev have suffered losses, and the responsibility is all yours!”

This is Hong Guoguo’s threat. Unfortunately, Li Xiao is not scared. This kind of innocuous threat is useless to him.

He replied indifferently: “Okay, I have made it clear what I should say. If your people want to do something in Bucharest, you’d better notify me first, otherwise you will bear all the consequences yourself!”

After talking for a while, Varenoff walked away angrily, and Li Xiao’s face was as dark as the bottom of the pot.

The sudden appearance of the third commissioner caught Li Xiao by surprise. He never expected that Nicholas I would suddenly send a high-level spy to Wallachia, because there was no sign before. Could it be that the old **** is this? Doubt anything?

Li Xiao knew that he would not only have to deal with the complicated international situation and battlefield situation, but also play a cat-and-mouse game with the so-called commissioner, and maybe also deal with the self-righteous idiot of Varenoff. Suddenly he had a headache.

After a long time, he issued the order: “Order the whole city to strengthen martial law and strictly investigate all suspicious elements, especially those who have arrived in Bucharest recently~www.mtlnovel.com~ Any abnormality must be reported immediately!”

But he knew that this order didn’t really have much effect. If the commissioner really came prepared and was as difficult as Varenoff said, then he could rely on this kind of momentum to outweigh the actual city. It is almost impossible to search for Martial Law to find his whereabouts.

The reason why Li Xiao wanted to do this was actually for the purpose of fighting grass to scare the snakes. He pretended to muddy the water. On the one hand, he deterred the increasingly restless external forces.

The ones who really used to hunt down the commissioner had to rely on his elite military police, but these people were really limited, and there were too many purposes to pay attention to.

What’s more, even if you find the commissioner, you can’t kill him, so Nicholas I still knows that Wallachia has a problem. Then he sent more than one or two people to check the situation.

Unless he wanted to make things out of control, Li Xiao could only stare at that guy, and when he thought about it, his mood became even worse.

He sighed and added, “Keep an eye on Varenoff, figure out how many of them there are, and make sure they don’t mess around with us!”
