When Sokov was playing Douyin in later generations, he would see videos from time to time. Southerners went to the north to eat. After entering the restaurant, they ordered food according to southern customs, but they were dumbfounded when the food was served. I thought I ordered for one person, but the food served was enough to feed four or five people. He felt that he had encountered a similar situation today. There were three such big bowls, three pots of haggis soup to be precise, and the three of them couldn't finish them anyway.

He secretly prayed in his heart that the Mongolian pie that would be served later would not be too big, otherwise he would have to ask a few more people to help him eat it. Fortunately, when the pies were brought over, he found that what he was worried about had not happened. The Mongolian pies in front of him were of normal size. Even a delicate girl like Sonia could eat two or three without much problem.

Then the waiter brought another piece of Mongolian blood sausage, and then politely said to Sokov and others: "You three, everything you ordered is here, please use it slowly!"

Sokov glanced at the hot haggis soup and felt it was too hot, so he pushed it aside, picked up a pie and ate it while asking Sonia: "Sonia, you have been in the Soviet Union for so many years, how can you get used to eating here?" Food?”

"At the beginning, I was a little uncomfortable," Sonia said. "But as I followed the locals, I gradually adapted to the Soviet eating habits. There are many Mongolians in Khabarovsk, and they have opened many restaurants in the city. Restaurant, I like their haggis soup, pies and blood sausage, so I frequent them.”

Asel, who was eating soup with a spoon, heard Sonia say: "Oh, so you are familiar with these foods?"

"Yes," Sonia nodded, and then introduced the food in front of Sokov to the two of them: "Haggis soup is made with sheep head, sheep hooves, heart, liver, intestines, lungs and sheep blood as the main ingredients, and is cooked with auxiliary ingredients. It is made. Usually, water is added to the pot, as well as pepper, fennel, salt and other condiments to stew. After the soup in the pot boils, skim off the foam and continue to cook until the aroma overflows. Remove the sheep head and hooves and cut off the bones and meat. Separate and cut the rest into strips or slices.

Use an iron pot again, put in the mutton oil and heat it up. Stir the pot with onion, ginger, garlic and chili pepper. Add thick mutton bone soup, water and appropriate amount of original soup and refined salt and other condiments. After it boils, add the main ingredients and cook. It is ready to drink when the soup is thick and mellow. The mutton soup cooked in this way is delicious, rich, oily but not greasy, which makes people appetite. "

Sokov had already finished a pie when Sonia introduced the haggis soup. He picked up another pie from the plate and said to Sonia: "Sonia, it seems that you are quite familiar with Mongolian food. Can you introduce this pie to us?"

Sonia nodded after listening and continued: "Mongolian pies are one of the main foods used by Mongolians to entertain guests. When guests come to their homes, they serve pies, just like Russians use round bread. It's the same as Yanba coming to receive guests. There is a saying in the Northeast: 'Nothing is more delicious than dumplings.' If you change it to Mongolia, it becomes: 'Nothing is more delicious than pie,' which shows that pie and dumplings are both high-quality products."

When Sokov heard Sonia say, "It's not as delicious as dumplings," he couldn't help but mutter to himself: "The next thing is: It's not as fun as that." However, he only thought about these words in his mind and did not say them out. He stared at the plate of Mongolian blood sausage in front of him and asked, "Can you introduce Mongolian blood sausage to us?"

"Well, okay." Sonia continued: "The raw materials for making blood sausage are sheep intestines and sheep blood. Sheep blood is the product of the Mongolians who kill sheep by removing their hearts. Add salt, minced green onions, a small amount of water and flour. Pour into the sheep blood and mix it into plasma. Then wash the sheep intestines with salt water, pour in the sheep blood mixed with seasonings, tie both ends of the sheep intestines with thin threads and put them in the water to cook. During the cooking process, In order to prevent the intestines from exploding at high temperatures, you need to use a needle to poke holes in the intestines from time to time to deflate them.”

When Sonia was introducing the delicacies on the table, Sokov caught a glimpse of Asel drinking soup one after another with a spoon from the corner of his eye. He couldn't help but said jokingly: "Asel, such a hot soup." , you dare to drink spoonful after spoonful like this, aren't you afraid that your tongue will be burned?"

Asser laughed after hearing this and replied: "Comrade Commander, you won't burn your tongue. I think the soup should be eaten while it's hot. If it's cold, it won't taste good."

Sokov shook his head with a smile and said: "I don't dare to drink soup that is too hot. Let's wait for the soup to dry for a while before drinking it." After stuffing the remaining pie in his mouth, he said vaguely Ask Sonia, "Sonia, how long will your medical team stay with us?"

“Misha.” Hearing Sokov’s question, Sonia pouted and said, “I just arrived last night, and you couldn’t wait to drive me away!”

Sokov laughed dryly and said defensively: "I was just asking."

“I think we have to wait until the war is over before our superiors will consider transferring us back.”

Sonia's words reminded Sokov of the military hospital on Lenin Street, where two young doctors and nurses lived for a while in the house he lent to them. Later, the two went to the front line with the medical team. After that, there was no more news. I don’t know if he died or if he was fighting on various fronts.

“Misha, drink the soup quickly.” Sonia picked up the spoon and took a spoonful of soup, put it to her mouth and blew on it, then handed it to Sokov: “It won’t taste good when it’s cold.”

Seeing the spoon that Sonia handed to his mouth, Sokov couldn't help but hesitate, wondering whether he should drink the soup directly or refuse the other party's kindness. Just when Sokov was hesitating, Asel next to him suddenly groaned, then covered his stomach and fell to the ground.

"Assel, what's wrong with you?" When Sokov saw this, he didn't care about the spoon handed to him. He quickly leaned over to support Asser and asked nervously: "What's wrong with you?"

At this time, Arshan's face turned livid, and blood oozed from the corners of his mouth. He tried his best to say: "Commander, there is something in the soup, it is poisonous." Then, he tilted his head and it was gone. Any breath.

Sokov put down Athel's body, drew his pistol, and shouted to the waiter who had just walked out of the kitchen with the teapot: "Hey, come here!"

Unexpectedly, when the waiter heard the shouting, he immediately threw the teapot in his hand towards Sokov without hesitation, and then ran outside. Sokov tilted his head to avoid the flying teapot, but the boiling water spilled from the teapot splashed onto Sokov's neck, causing him to grin and almost scream in pain.

 Seeing the waiter take out the restaurant, Sokov immediately chased him out with a gun.

The guy ran very fast. By the time Sokov rushed to the door, he was already more than thirty meters away. Sokov knew that he would definitely not be able to catch up with the opponent, so he quickly pulled the trigger towards his back and shot out all the bullets in the gun in one breath.

 Although beyond a certain range, the hit rate of the pistol will be greatly reduced. But one of the bullets fired by Sokov hit the man's calf, and his running speed immediately slowed down.

Seeing the man limping in front of him, Sokov walked forward quickly, loaded a new magazine, pointed the gun at the man's back, and was ready to shoot at any time. Sokov's men were everywhere in the city. When they heard the gunshots coming from here, two patrols came quickly from different directions.

The patrol coming from behind Sokov consisted of more than twenty people, led by a second lieutenant. He came to Sokov's side and asked with concern: "Comrade Commander, what happened?"

Sokov didn't have time to explain to him. He pointed at the man limping in front of him and ordered: "Grab that man, don't let him escape. Also," he then turned and pointed at the house he came out of. Mongolia Hotel: "Send a few more people to cordon off the hotel and no one is allowed to leave. If anyone tries to leave by force, you can shoot them directly."

When the second lieutenant saw Sokov shooting in the street, he immediately realized that something serious had happened. He quickly divided his men into two groups. One group went to catch the escaping guy, and the other group went back to block the hotel. However, before the second lieutenant's men could catch up with the fleeing man, an oncoming patrol captured the man.

The guests in the hotel first saw someone being poisoned and died, and then the waiters in the restaurant fled, and the general who was eating chased him with a gun. They were stunned for a moment, stood up one after another, and tried to escape from this place of right and wrong as soon as possible. But they moved quickly, and Sonia moved faster than them. She spread her arms to block the door and said loudly: "No one is allowed to leave!"

The guests saw that she was a woman and did not pay attention to her at all. They pushed her away and tried to run outside. Fortunately, the patrol sent by the second lieutenant blocked the door in time and prevented the people in the store from escaping.

Seeing that the patrol had blocked the restaurant, Sonia quickly said to the second lieutenant who walked in: "Comrade second lieutenant, the owner of the restaurant is in the back kitchen. Hurry up and take someone to catch him. Don't let him escape."

 After the second lieutenant led the two soldiers into the kitchen, Sonia came to Asel and squatted down to check whether he still had any signs of life.

“Sonia,” when Sokov returned to the hotel with a group of soldiers, he saw Sonia squatting next to Asel, and asked with concern: “How is Asel’s situation?”

Sonia didn’t speak, she just stood up, shook her head slowly, and sighed softly.

From Sonia’s expression, Sokov knew that Asel had been sacrificed, and he couldn’t help but feel extremely heavy. He came to squat down next to Asel's body, secretly blaming himself. If he had not agreed to Sonia's invitation, or had not brought Asel here for dinner, he might still be alive and well.

“Comrade Commander.” Just as Sokov was feeling sad for Asel’s sacrifice, he suddenly heard the patrol captain’s voice and stood up quickly. The second lieutenant came to Sokov and reported to him: "The owner of the hotel is dead. He committed suicide by taking poison."

"I understand." Sokov nodded and said to another patrol leader: "Comrade Sergeant, please take the arrested man with you to the headquarters with me. I want to find out. ,What exactly is going on."

When Sokov and his team were still a few hundred meters away from the headquarters, a group of soldiers came towards them from the front. After Sokov saw clearly that the person leading the team was Bezikov, he stopped and stood there waiting for the other party's arrival.

Bezikov soon came to Sokov and asked with concern: "Comrade Commander, I heard that there was a gunfight where you were eating. What happened?"

Sokov said with a wry smile: "Assel is dead."

 “Aser is dead?” Bezikov asked with shock on his face: “How did he die?”

“Poisoned.” Sonia next to her interrupted: “He died of poisoning.”

"What, poisoned?!" When Bezikov heard what Sonia said, a murderous look suddenly appeared on his face, and he asked angrily: "Who poisoned you?"

"The person who poisoned us should be related to the Mongolian Hotel where we ate." Sokov pointed at the waiter who was being held by two soldiers and said: "The owner of the hotel has committed suicide by taking poison. This is the waiter in the store who escaped when he escaped. I hurt my leg."

"Comrade Commander, give him to me." Bezikov looked at the man, his eyes almost bursting with fire, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I will definitely get the information I want from his mouth. "After saying this, he suddenly remembered a key question, "Comrade Commander, why did you think of going to that restaurant?"

Before Sokov could finish speaking, Sonia raised her hand and said timidly: "Comrade Major, I took Misha there."

After hearing this, Bezikov looked at Sonia carefully and said coldly: "Comrade Sonia, since the commander's distress has something to do with you, please come with us. I want Understand the causes and consequences of this matter.”

Hearing that Bezikov was going to take her for examination, Sonia's body couldn't help but tremble. She knew Bezikov's identity, and if she fell into the hands of Ministry of Internal Affairs personnel, she might suffer unexpected torture. She hurriedly cast a look at Sokov for help, hoping that he could put in a few good words for her.

At this time, Sokov heard that Bezikov was going to take Sonia for examination. He couldn't help but think of his suspicions about Sonia. He felt that the other party might be a spy of the Kwantung Army. If he was handed over to Bezikov, After reviewing it, you might be able to get some useful information for yourself. But then he thought about it, it seemed a bit inappropriate if he acquiesced to Bezikov's decision and watched him take Sonia away without saying a word.

After some thought, he finally said to Bezikov: "Comrade Major, although the hotel where we eat was chosen by Sonia, I don't think she will harm me. There must be something hidden in it. She can do whatever you want. Go back and accept the investigation, but don't cause her any harm."

After hearing Bezikov's reply, Sokov turned to Sonia and said: "Sonia, this is just a process, nothing will happen to you, so just go and go."
