After the snow stopped at noon, the wind became smaller.

In the silent forest, even the sound of small animals disappeared.

The whole world seems to be frozen by the low temperature.

Zhou Zhen dragged her sleigh and walked hard in the snow. With each breath, she could feel the exhaled heat frozen into ice residue, and then fell to the ground.

In such weather, it may be a joke to knock with a stick to pee, but if you want to go big, you can only pull it in your pants.

If you dare to expose your skin outside, your stool may have frozen without pulling it out.

Zhou Zhen absolutely doesn't want to try. In this extreme weather, survival is a difficult thing.

After going out for about a kilometer, Zhou Zhen put her sled on a small hillside, then put on her skis and began to ski in the forest.

Although it is dark all around and the moon has only crescent, the surrounding scenery is still dimly visible with the reflection of snow.

His destination is the reform through labor farm not far from the north. This reform through labor farm is very large and there are thousands of prisoners. With the families of prisoners, a large residential area has been formed in the north of the city.

This large residential area, centered on reform through labor farms, is fan-shaped.

The prisoner's family area is between the farm and the city, but the two areas belong to different jurisdiction units.

This reform through labor farm is very famous, so there are international observers such as elte. In fact, they are mainly the allies of the Soviet Union, the Americans and the representatives of the joining countries.

Zhou Zhen wants to investigate elte. Elte is looking for him today. He must have his own purpose.

He would not take such a big risk just to block the Soviet government!

Zhou Zhen also suspected that she had encountered some film plot, but she searched almost all films, TV dramas and novels about the Soviet Union and the United States, and found no similar plot.

This period is more sensitive, and Russia's geographical conditions are only in the world.

It is easy for them to send spies abroad, and most of the foreign spies are also active in Moscow and St. Petersburg.

Come to Siberia, silly!

No spy can hide in this closed area, and no spy can bear the climate and living environment here.

Those who are spies for the ideal can't say no, but most spies are actually for life.

Most people will not come to spy in such an extremely cold area that is almost isolated from the world.

Like elte, he came to be a visible spy directly because of his work.

He can't work here for a long time. Generally, he will return home after two or three years at most.

So why did he save himself?

Unlike Zhou Zhen's expected reform through labor farm, it's not like a prison at all. It's just a large timber factory.

Even prisoners go to and from work on time every day, but in terms of labor remuneration, they may be different from ordinary workers.

Without strict defense, there are several pieces in the plant, including special logging, transportation, decomposition and making all kinds of furniture.

Zhou Zhen carefully glided and observed in the place without light outside for a long time, and then determined the central area of the plant according to the location of several plant areas, cinemas and gymnasiums.

Then according to the sign, I found the office building of the general factory.

He took off his sledge and walked around the dark street like an ordinary worker.

This is a square four storey office building. The building is not high, but it is square and looks very dignified.

The windows are not big, because it snows and they are closed.

There was no light in the northeast corner of the building. Zhou Zhen quickly designed the climbing angle and position. Seeing that there was no one around, he climbed several times and went directly to the roof.

The snow on the roof was very thick. Regardless of her footprints on the roof, Zhou Zhen directly walked over and pushed the door of the roof.

The door didn't open. It should have been inserted from the inside.

Zhou Zhen noticed downstairs just now that there were guards at the south gate and west gate, but there were no guards at the north gate and east gate.

After analyzing the decibels that might make a sound, whether it could be transmitted to the guard room on the first floor, Zhou Zhen held the handle with her hand and tried her best.

The power was received as soon as it was sent, which damaged the bolt inside, but the sound was not loud.

Here is the roof of the fourth floor, far from the guard room on the first floor, and there are many sound insulation walls.

The door was opened, and Zhou Zhen entered. Then he closed the door and listened carefully.

Everything went well without disturbing anyone here.

Zhou Zhen waited about ten minutes before walking slowly down.

The Secretary's office, political commissar's office and outreach office are Zhou Zhen's goals.

There should be information about elte in the office of the Secretary and political commissar, even if there is no archives and outreach office.

And elte's specific residence. He can't directly ask Louise them, but can only investigate by himself.

Things went well. Zhou Zhen found all the information of the working group in the filing cabinet in the first office.

Aert, born in Pittsburgh in 1902, was originally a lawyer and later joined the League of nations.

He is now the leader of the post-war treatment team in Krasnoyarsk, so he has also been valued by the Soviet Union.

As for his residence, it was not arranged on the farm, but in a high-end hostel in the city.

Zhou Zhen found his place on the map, but he didn't want to go.

At night, there are few people on the streets here. Pedestrians will be concerned. He is still a fugitive.

More importantly, he didn't come tonight, obviously because of something or entertainment.

Even in the past, you may not be able to find someone.

As for the evidence, it's even more impossible. I'm afraid there are spies in his place several times a day.

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhen suddenly thought that even if he had food, he couldn't move all at once to Louise's house.

Everyone knows how much money her family has!

But it's easy to do. You can hide these things by digging a hole in the forest near their house.

Without taking anything away, Zhou Zhen quietly came to the first floor and came to the north gate. The gate here was blocked by a square wood.

Zhou Zhen took away the square wood and left silently.

This action did not achieve any results. If you want to know elte's purpose, you can only start from him.

After leaving the farm, Zhou Zhen returned to the place where she stored her sleigh, and then dragged the sleigh to the roadside only 200 meters away from Louise's house.

Then Zhou Zhen took out ten bags of flour, various cans, snacks, and several sets of lingerie and sweaters from the space.

Ten bags of flour weigh 500 Jin, enough for their mother and daughter to eat for several months.

Zhou Zhen is not unwilling to give more, but there is no place for storage in their home.

Zhou Zhen first returned to the front of the house and sensed that there were only three people in the house. This time, he relaxed and pulled the sledge back.

As soon as he stopped, Louise had opened the door. Behind her, there were two small heads full of expectation.

Seeing the sledge behind Zhou Zhen, their faces smiled.

"Do you have a cellar?"

"There's one next to the boiler, but it hasn't been used for a long time."

Zhou Zhen nodded. "There are still things. I'm just afraid you don't have a place to store them. More importantly, I'm afraid to arouse suspicion."

"We can dig another cellar so that we can put things and not be afraid of starvation," jurenka said

Zhou Zhen asked with a smile, "have you ever been hungry?"

She nodded seriously. "We all almost starved to death."

Zhou Zhen was speechless. He carried a flour bag in his hand and carried the things on the sled into the house.

Several women were not idle. The two children carried light. Louise also held a bag of flour and did not dislike that her body was stained with flour.

After moving things two or three times, Zhou Zhen stuffed the sledge into the storage room under the house and helped to plug several large wooden blocks into the boiler.

When Zhou Zhen entered the house, Louise, like a virtuous wife, helped Zhou Zhen take off her cotton coat.

Sophia took a dry towel in her hand and helped Zhou Zhen beat the dust on her body.

Even the youngest Eureka helped Zhou Zhen prepare a cup of coffee and brought it.

Zhou Zhen sat in a chair like a master, enjoying the worship of three women.

I wish I had a sofa. It's a terrible chair.

Because of the lack of cloth, the hardwood has not even a cushion.

"Hot water is ready. Come and wash your hands."

Eureka saw Zhou Zhen get up and quickly took the coffee. "I'll hold it for you... The coffee is delicious..."

Zhou Zhen smiled and touched her head. The touch kill was very aggressive against the girl who lacked father's love. She narrowed her eyes and smiled with great enjoyment.

Zhou Zhen washed her hands in the basin. The water temperature was just right.

"With so many things, I'm not afraid I can't get through this winter."

"It's not safe here. Otherwise, there's more food."

Sophia suddenly came out with a bra and picked it with her fingers. "Why is there such a thing?"

Zhou Zhen shrugged. "I wanted to take it back to my wife, but I didn't take the children's clothes at that time."

She muttered in Russian with some dissatisfaction: "I'm not a child..."

Zhou Zhen still pretended not to understand and deliberately asked, "what are you talking about?"

Embarrassed, she turned back and walked into her mother's bedroom. "Nothing."

Zhou Zhen looked at Louise and said with a smile, "don't worry about me. Go and see those things. Put them away and don't let anyone find them."

She nodded, pointed to the boiler in the middle of the living room and said, "I'll hide things in a minute."

There is a hidden board that can be opened. Usually, the boiler adds firewood from there. After going down, there is a cellar.

"This cellar is not safe either. I'll take a look tomorrow and help you dig a cellar out."

Jurenka is not as interested in those things as Zhou Zhen. She takes a sip of her coffee cup and hands it to Zhou Zhen. "Why are you so kind to us?"

Zhou Zhen doesn't want to tell herself that this is the right medicine. She knows what they lack and what they give.

"You are very cute. Of course I can't watch you starve to death..."
