Chapter 32 (1/2)
At 4:30, we accompanied President kaiben lane to a friendly banquet, which ended at 7:30 p.m.
At nine o'clock in the evening, I began to work on the night shift. President Cabernet, his family and entourage were all in bed, and there was silence inside and outside the apartment.
After a round of inspection inside and outside the apartment, I stopped at the entrance of the apartment. Although the security deployment of our apartment is almost seamless. There are 24-hour sentinels on duty outside the apartment, as for me, we must not slack off at all. In general, the work of protecting foreign guests is relatively high, and the requirements of the special security bureau are much stricter. It is the so-called security work without trifles, prevention first is one of the important principles of our security work. We should not have the idea and idea of relaxing at any time, otherwise, we will not be far away from the danger.
At about ten o'clock, a bodyguard of state y came to me, finishing his clothes and whining, ”what a disappointment! This kesev is sick!”
The grumbling bodyguard, named Dalton, is a newly hired presidential bodyguard, who is said to be the best selected from the special forces of the whole army of country y. The last time I accompanied the chief to visit country y, Dalton had not yet taken office.
Dalton stopped by me, took out two cigarettes, handed me one, and said, ”come on, smoke one, lift up the spirit!”
I waved and refused, warning: ”Captain Dalton, for safety's sake, it's better not to smoke at this time. If you want to breathe, you can go back to the room to breathe. Isn't that better? ”
Dalton shook his head and said, ”Oh, No. I'm on duty. Like you, I'm in charge of the safety patrol in the first half of the night. ”
I was stunned for a moment. Why did he come on duty?
But I still asked, ”who asked you to come?”
Dalton said: ”kaiseff, our chief bodyguard. He arranged for me to come. That's a madman. Bullying me is a new addition. I'll be on duty every night. It'll be very tired! ”
I understood everything in a flash!
It turned out that kaiseff was not very sure about the security of our country, so he sent the National Guard to watch with us in the evening. It seems that this kaiseff is really a self righteous guy. Isn't it obvious that he doesn't trust the strength of Chinese security? As a national bodyguard, it's not uncommon to encounter this situation. I've heard many old guards say similar things. When some foreign heads visit China, the head security officer doesn't trust the Chinese guards. He insists on increasing the strength of the guards and sending domestic guards with double added value. In this case, we can only keep calm or indirectly convince each other with our strength.
”I said,” you can reflect to kaiseff that the night shift doesn't need so many people, and ask him to believe in the strength of the Chinese guards. ”
Dalton smiled, lit the cigarette on his mouth, and said: ”well, you should know that kaiseff's character, what he thinks, is generally difficult to change. What's more, there is no small matter in safety work. Maybe it's reasonable for him to be so cautious. ”
I said, ”since you want to insist, I have nothing to say, but I must remind you not to smoke on duty, OK?”
Danton took his two fingers and held the cigarette in his hand, and said in an incredible way: ”Oh, you're too serious. You're just smoking a cigarette. Now everyone is asleep. Our smoking won't affect anyone.” Dalton said, still unbridled in his cigarette, crooked his head spit out smoke, a complacent, bitterly looking for pleasure.
I asked, ”Captain Dalton, do you dare to smoke when you are on duty in country y?”
Dalton laughed and said, ”no, never. But now it's not the same. It's in China's state guesthouse, let alone in the evening. It's just a good thing to smoke a cigarette to improve our spirits! ”
I restrained my easygoing expression and said to Dalton in an almost commanding tone: ”now you have two choices, either to smoke out or to go back to sleep obediently. Since you come to China, you should abide by China's discipline. Smoking on duty is a very irresponsible performance! ”
