Being able to suddenly hear a familiar mother tongue in a foreign country, even if it is the quintessence of cursing, makes people feel very cordial.

Lin Dong immediately said, "Dickens, I have a letter of introduction, and I really need you."

Dickens did not relax his vigilance, and still aimed his gun at Lin Dong's back, saying, "Take out the letter of introduction and put it on the statue's head."

"Slow down, slow down, boy, let me see your hand."

Under Dickens' command, Lin Dong finally took out the letter of introduction from his pocket and put it in the hand of a statue next to him.

"Go forward and put your hands against the wall"

Lin Dong did as he did, and footsteps sounded behind him.

After coming over for a while, accompanied by whimpering and crying, something fell heavily on the ground.

Lin Dong turned around and saw an old man with gray hair covering his face and crying with a letter of introduction, and a semi-automatic rifle dropped by his feet.

After a while, Dickens wiped away his tears, looked at Lin Dong and said:

"I... I waited 50 years."

"I thought my motherland had forgotten me."

"Why are you here now!"

……

Lin Dong was taken to the study on the second floor by Dickens. The old man closed the doors and windows carefully and signaled Lin Dong not to speak.

Then he took out a radio detector from the corner next to the curtain, scanned the study carefully, and then took a deep breath and said, "Citigroup's hyenas are everywhere, we must be extra careful."

Seeing this old man with obvious Caucasian ancestry, one mouthful of his motherland and one mouthful of Citigroup, Lin Dong felt very awkward.

Dickens picked up a pot of tea from the desk, brewed a cup and handed it to Lin Dong.

Lin Dong took the teacup, thanked him, and asked, "Mr. Dickens, did you just say the motherland?"

Dickens drank the hot tea in one gulp, stood up from the sofa, and said towards the east, "Yes, there is only one motherland, and that is Xiaguo!"

"With all due respect, but you are..."

Dickens took over the conversation and said, "I'm a mixed race, to be precise."

"My grandma is Italian, my grandfather is from Citigroup, then my father is of mixed race, and my mother is from Xiaguo."

"So, I have a quarter of Xia Kingdom blood."

"So, you lived in Xia Kingdom?"

Dickens saved himself another cup of tea and sat on the sofa, as if lost in memory.

"Yes, during the war against the Cherry Blossom Country, my father was a pilot of the Citi Country, and the plane crashed in Xia Country."

"My mother saved him, and after my father returned to China, my mother found out that I was there."

"You know, Xia Guo has some ideas that are outdated than now, but I was very happy when I was a child, and my mother didn't let me feel wronged at all."

Dickens told Lin Dong an old-fashioned and poignant love story.

And this mother of the Xia Kingdom, for the sake of the child, has endured many burdens and done everything that should be done.

"Hey, did you know that my grandfather took me to the capital of Xia Kingdom."

"That was the first time I went to a city as a kid, and it went straight to the biggest city at the time."

Dickens smiled and said, "Now whenever I see the rapid development of Xia Kingdom on TV, I can't help but want to go back to China immediately."

"Then why have you stayed at Citigroup?"

"What I mean is, now that the transportation is well developed, it should be easy to go back to Xia Country."

Having said that, Dickens slapped the armrest of the sofa hard.

The quintessence of nationalism can't stop coming out of the mouth.

"Fuck him!"

"His uncle!"

"They lied to me!"

Dickens said angrily:

"I was born in Xia Guo and grew up in Xia Guo, and I am also a member of the reserve team of that great organization in Xia Guo."

"They told me to go back to Citigroup as an agent and let me stay in peace."

Having said that, Dickens burst into tears again.

"I've been waiting for a full 50 years."

"Before I left, my mother made me a bowl of tofu."

"That bowl of tofu nao is salty, but I ate it very sweet."

"My mother said, she will make sweet tofu nao for me when I go back after completing the task."

"For decades, I have been waiting for the call of my motherland, but no one has contacted me."

"I'm like a silent instrument, when I was about to run out of power, I finally waited for you."

Speaking of this, Dickens looked at Lin Dong eagerly, and there seemed to be light in his eyes.

"Tell me, what is the mission this time? I will definitely complete it!"

Lin Dong quickly waved his hand and said, "Wait a minute, Mr. Dickens, may I know what was written in that letter of introduction?"

"Oh, it's nothing, it's just the agreed code word for the connection."

"The letter of introduction didn't say anything about me?"

"No, just let me cooperate with you to complete the mission. Tell me, it's safe here now, what exactly is the mission?"

Where did Lin Dong come from? He immediately told about his experience with Wantong.

Just when Lin Dong was about to take out the black USB flash drive, Dickens hurriedly waved his hand to stop it.

"Don't show me that thing, and don't talk about it anymore. Although I will never rebel, those hyenas have some dirty tricks."

"One less person who knows, one point less danger!"

After finishing speaking, Dickens stroked his gray hair and said, "In this case, you should stay here first, and I will find a way to send you back to China after the limelight passes."

At this time, Dickens raised his eyebrows and made an invitation: "Hey, would you like to see my achievements over the years?"

Dickens spent 50 years at Citigroup with a mission in mind.

For the past 50 years, he has been working hard and is always ready to respond to Xia Guo's call.

But Xia Guo seemed to have forgotten him.

Dickens has a firm belief. He firmly believes that the motherland did not call him, and the time must have not come, but he is always ready for the preparations that should be made.

Finally, the motherland finally sent someone to contact him this time, and the grievance and excitement in his heart turned into a desire to express himself.

It's like left-behind children, when they see their parents finally return, they quickly take out the certificate issued by the school.

Lin Dong followed Dickens to the first floor again, passed through the room full of plaster materials, and walked to an angle.

Dickens grinned, and pushed a statue on top of it to the side.

Seeing this, Lin Dong casually moved the statue aside.

"Boy, you have good strength!"

Dickens applauded, pulling up a clasp above ground to reveal a descending staircase.

Pa~!

Dickens reached in and turned on the power.

"Follow me!"

After coming down from the entrance of the cave, even though Lin Dong had gone through extreme challenges and participated in the life-threatening run, he thought that his heart had been trained to be very strong, but the situation in front of him still surprised him from ear to ear.

This is a huge underground space.

Every ten meters or so, there is a thick concrete column as a support, supplemented by a huge iron plate on top to increase the force-bearing area.

There are buildings under the concrete pillars, which are rectangular in shape as a whole, and are divided into independent rooms from left to right.

Some of these rooms are used as warehouses, where various medicines and guns are piled up.

Some serve as workshops for making or repairing instruments.

There are also some workshops, mainly for research and processing of explosives.

Lin Dong even saw a semi-finished ammunition production line thrown on the other side.

This is simply a complete miniature wartime logistics base.

Seeing Lin Dong's surprised expression, Dickens was very satisfied.

He said proudly:

"This is what I started digging after my third year at Citigroup."

"From the first shovel down to the current appearance, I have done it by myself."

"How? I didn't embarrass my motherland, hahaha"

Lin Dong swallowed his saliva, it was hard to imagine that the other party was just a person who almost hollowed out the whole building in decades.

"Very... very amazing, you are truly amazing!"

Dickens dragged Lin Dong into a room, where there was a bed and a wooden table, and on the wall was a poster that showed the spirit of the Xia Dynasty from decades ago.

On the painting is a young man with a resolute expression on his face, his mouth pursed and his chest upright, with one hand flat on his chest, the fist close to the heart, and the elbow outward.

There is also a line of white characters on a red background.

"Overcome all odds and fight for victory!"

Dickens looked at the picture and said:

"Before I left, I took it off the wall."

"For so many years, whenever I miss home, I will come here to sit."

"Only in a dream can I see my motherland, my mother."

"do you know……"

"I really want to drink another bowl of sweet tofu nao."
