Struggle in Russia

Chapter 39 Clear

Just when Grand Duke Constantine was giving advice, in a very inconspicuous cafe in Bucharest, Saladov, who was disguised and changed, was meeting with Arkady. Yes, since this excellent spy found out that Ole After Stern was closely monitored, he gave up the idea of ​​continuing to keep in touch with him. Instead, he wrote an anonymous letter to ask Arkady out, and he planned to directly contact Arkady.

Of course, even if Orest was not closely monitored, it is estimated that Saladov would choose to directly connect with Arkady, because it would benefit him more, and he would not want to continue to be exploited by middlemen.

"What the hell are you doing? Why did you call me here to meet up all of a sudden, and you put on such a ghostly makeup, and why didn't you show up last time when you asked Oreste to come out for a meeting? Are you crazy?"

Facing Arkady's questioning, Saladov explained calmly: "Orest is being targeted by the people from the Governor's Mansion. Last time, I was almost found out!"

This answer surprised Arkady, and he almost let out an exclamation of "Ah", because this situation was completely unexpected to him. Could it be that their actions have already been noticed by the Governor's Office?

Saladov was very satisfied with Arkady's reaction. Of course, he did it on purpose. Only in this way can he show his ability. In addition, if he doesn't scare Arkady, how can he ask for a price.

"you sure?"

Saladov nodded heavily: "Totally sure! According to my later observations, Oreste has been closely monitored by the Governor's Mansion. It is too risky for me to continue reporting the situation to him, so I can only contact you directly. "

Arkady was actually dubious about Saladov's words, because he felt that although Orest was a bit of a prodigal, he still had abilities. How could the group of laymen in the Governor's Palace monitor him without being noticed?

He thought it might be that Saladov was playing tricks, or that this guy had discovered something but he didn't want Oreste to take the credit, so he deliberately made a clumsy excuse.

"Okay, I will pay attention to this situation, you asked me to come here and only this to say?"

"Of course not. I have found a lot about Diomede and I am going to report it to you!"

[Diomede! 】

Arkady was overjoyed and said happily, "Tell me quickly! What information!"

Arkady was happy, but Saladov was even happier than him. He knew that he had made the right bet, so he immediately replied: "According to my investigation, this Mr. Diomede is inextricably linked to the Wallachian rebels." During the Wallachia rebellion, he was active in Bucharest, became the guest of many rebel leaders, and even had direct contact with the Hungarian rebel leader Kossuth!"

Arkady's heart was pounding,

He was so excited, because this discovery was really important, and if it could be confirmed, then they would have the weapon to bring down Count Speranski.

He asked eagerly, "Is there any evidence?"

Well, what embarrasses Saladov is that he really has no evidence, because these are just his observations and some gossip collected, but it is impossible for him to say that to Arkady.

"It's being collected, but you know, it needs money..."

When it came to money, it was Arkady's turn to be embarrassed, because he really had no money. Who made Count Vladimir a prodigal son, he already owed a lot of debts, and now he is overwhelmed by his creditors, and Arkady is also unlucky and can only live a hard life.

"Money?" Arkady laughed, and replied with a bit of a smirk: "It's easy to say, as long as you hand in the evidence, Count Vladimir will immediately reward you for your merits!"

This answer is not what Saladov wants, because this is an IOU, and IOUs don't care about being full. He has had enough of the IOUs above, he is infinitely generous when he gives you an IOU, but he is extremely stingy when he cashes the IOU.

And he was too familiar with Arkady's half-smiley expression, that is, he would never honor the white note.

So he also hehe said: "Okay, I'll hand it in later..."

Arkady didn't want to look back, he thought that Saladov had the evidence now! What he wants is now!

But Saladov refused mercilessly: "Impossible, how could I carry such a crucial thing with me..."

Arkady said urgently: "Then I'll go get it with you!"

Who would have thought that Saladov would continue to refuse: "No! I am hiding far away, not in Bucharest. It will take time to go back and forth. You should wait!"

Arkady was going crazy, he really wanted to send someone to arrest Saradov immediately, and then tortured him to make him hand over the evidence, but the slippery Saradov didn't give him this chance, because later The reporter immediately announced his farewell and asked him to wait for the good news.

In fact, it’s not a big problem if Saladov doesn’t run away, because Arkady has no one in his hands right now, and he can’t order anyone except the coachman at the door. In fact, this is also the current situation of Count Vladimir. Except for the servants and guards brought from St. Petersburg, the earl can't command anyone.

Looking at the back of Saladov leaving in a hurry, Arkady’s mood is hard to describe. You say he is happy, maybe a little bit, but he is a little bit unhappy, you say he is irritable, he is also a little bit, but inexplicably a little bit expect. Anyway, it is mixed with oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar, so it has a bit of taste!

"Go home!"

Arkady finally decided to tell Count Vladimir the good news first, because they needed good news so much at this time. If he didn't give the earl some good news, he suspected that the earl himself would collapse first.

It's just that Arkady, who was eager to announce the good news, didn't notice. Not long after his carriage started, a very ordinary carriage followed quietly behind him, and his appearance and destination were known by the other party.

"Arkady Viginsky!"

Soon Arkady's identity was known to Anton, and after a big circle, Count Vladimir and his dog legs behind the scenes finally showed their flaws.

"It turned out that the bastard Count Vladimir was doing something!"

Li Xiao was also very surprised by this result, because he always thought that the spy of Nicholas I was behind the scenes, but who would have thought that it was the useless earl. But in this way, everything makes sense, why did that one refuse Alexei's bribe, why did he have that arrogant attitude again, the feeling is like a toad who wants to eat swan meat!
