sarajevo sniper

This happened in the spring of 91. Linnai remembered that it was a turbulent spring.

In March, they clashed with the Croatian police army. The People's Army finally decided that the exchange of fire should not be expanded any more, and some troops were allowed to withdraw from Croatia first. ①According to the plan, they will return to Serbia via Bosnia and Herzegovina, arrive at a garrison base along the Sava River on Tuesday afternoon, rest there for one night and then continue on Wednesday morning.Because the garrison base had a temporary military mission, and the sniper at the base was injured again, the army transferred Lin Nai to fill the vacancy.Their task is very simple, that is to arrest a Hungarian arms dealer who provided weapons to Bosnia and Herzegovina.

At that time, a large number of weapons owned by Croatia, Slovenia, Macedonia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina were provided by Hungary. The wars in those few years alone basically supported the entire Hungary.Arms dealers make a lot of money, and some even bribe government officials to sign astronomical arms orders every year. Guns, ammunition, radios, radars, armed helicopters, missiles, rockets... are continuously smuggled across the border, and the customs It's like being blind.

In order to prevent arms smuggling, the People's Army has arrested several large arms dealers.But there is a market where there is demand and there is supply. If you grab one, a new person will soon take over the business.This time, Lin Nai and the others arrested a newcomer. He was not very experienced. He got carried away after only doing a few large business orders. He started to act in a high-profile manner. The People's Army broke into the hotel and arrested him and his business partners. Right upright, the room full of firearms seemed to be his personal arsenal in the hotel suite.

The entire mission process went very smoothly. The People's Army, together with the arms dealer and his accomplices, arrested sixteen people and lined up in a neat row to kneel in the hotel corridor.Linnai entered the suite to complete the final search and confirmation, and found a tied middle-aged woman in the cloakroom cabinet.The woman was very weak at the time, had a high fever, and had several inflamed and festering wounds on her body. She was very emotional when she saw Linnai and asked him to let her go.

“She told me that her husband was an official of Bosnia and Herzegovina customs, because he refused the bribe of the Hungarian arms dealer and was unwilling to help the arms dealer to smuggle weapons, and was retaliated by the arms dealer. They arrested her and tried to threaten her husband to release the batch. Smuggled weapons. During the few days she was kidnapped, she tried to escape once, but was caught again and tortured." Linnai said in a low voice.

"Later she mentioned you. At that time, your name was written on your helmet, and she remembered it." Leto recalled: "She said you have a very good-looking face, like a male star in an American movie."

Lin Nai smiled: "She cried and begged me, saying that she missed her child and husband, and she wanted to go home. I didn't think much about it at the time, I just felt that there was no way to refuse, so I asked her to go back to the cabinet and stay well, and then I Go out and tell everyone that the room is clean and empty."

"You don't even know if the whole kidnapping story she told is true. She could be lying, she could be an important lead, and she could very well be a Bosniak."

"She's just a woman who wants to live. You didn't see what she looked like at the time, with gray temples and thin bones, what harm could she do? I really can't take such a woman back. Yes, they would think that She's Bosniak, and I thought so at the time - she has a badly Bosniak accent, and it never occurred to me that she's Italian. If she's identified as Bosniak, wait Her end will be gang-raped and abused, even if she has nothing to do with those arms dealers. You have been in the barracks, and you know what happens to a woman when she is reduced to the barracks."

"My mother converted to Islam after marrying my father, and her accent and lifestyle have changed a lot. Many people think she is a local when they first see her. So, you don't know she is Italian, you think she is Italian. It was a Bosniak, but you let her go. You didn't think about ethnicity, you just saw her as a sufferer."

The matter of letting people go was exposed soon.After returning to the military headquarters, the arms dealer quickly revealed that they had kidnapped the wife of the customs officer, but none of the people arrested was a woman.It was Lin Nai who searched the room in the end. Of course, Lin Nai was duty-bound. He could actually say that he was negligent and released the hostages without finding them. Lying, when asked, he simply said that he let him go.

The higher-ups were very annoyed when they asked you to carry out a mission to bring everyone back. If you release people without permission, you are deliberately disobeying the military order. As for whether the people released are serious or not, that is another matter.Deliberately disobeying military orders is a capital offense for a soldier. No army will want to keep a soldier who may disobey military orders at any time. This time, it may be just to let go of a less important hostage. The next time may not be sure, who knows When does he risk sabotaging important missions.

But Lin Nai didn't seem to care.This is also the main reason why the military department punished him heavily later—Lin Nai was indifferent to the point of arrogance, he didn’t seem to care how they punished him, he just insisted that he was right and refused to admit his mistakes, so the military department thought he was taken too seriously He will be proud of his talents, he should be exiled to the wilderness, let him taste the taste of loneliness.

Leto felt that there was no need to ask questions that he would not regret later. He believed that Linnai had never regretted the original decision——

"Apart from releasing my mother that time, have you ever disobeyed military orders?"

Lin Nai shook his head and said, "That was the only time in my military career."

Leto took out a photo from his jacket pocket and gave it to him: "You should still remember what she looks like. I always carry her photo with me. If I die on the battlefield, I can also be with her. Buried in the smoke of gunfire."

Linnai took the photo and looked at it, and immediately remembered the portrait of a young woman in Leto's office. Leto hid his ID card behind the photo. At first glance, he felt that the woman looked familiar. sister, but his mother.

"She was also a beauty when she was young." Linnai finally knew who the colonel had inherited his outstanding looks from.

"My father said that when he went to Italy on a business trip, he saw her on a flower cart. The morning sun tanned her cheeks as red as roses. She was sitting in the car, and there were always men following her, heading towards her. She shouted 'rose, rose'. When she turned her head and saw my father, she threw a red rose at his feet, gave him a smile, and he knew that his life belonged to her."

"what is her name?"

"Valentina."

"What a lovely name."

"Yes."

"Is she all right now?"

"It's very good. I can take you to see her when I have a chance. She always wants to thank you face to face. Our whole family is. We can go home for dinner together on weekends. But I want to remind you not to hold her cooking skills Had too high expectations."

"It can be seen from your figure that you never had enough to eat when you were young, right?"

The two looked at each other and smiled.Lin Nai found that his mood was unprecedentedly relaxed at this time.He thought about the phrase Leto said "go home and eat together", as if the two of them already had a family with dinner waiting for them, and they sat at the same table, eating simple food and chatting about work. Everyone's bad luck, everyone's job is just as bad, but when they get home, back to this dinner table, back to each other, everything can be reconciled.

Berramovic will definitely come with the Croatian support troops. With the current strength, the Serbs dare not continue to fight. Before that, it doesn't matter if it takes 10 minutes or half an hour. Finally, he and Leto can have a period of time. A quiet, peaceful time.

Linnai's smile gradually turned into a silent, deep look on Leto's lips. If he could move his attention a few centimeters up, he would find the colonel answering him with the same look.An imminent impulse took over Linnai.

He slammed Leto's head and kissed it passionately and wildly.Leto put his arms around his waist, his lips almost hurt from being sucked by Linnai, and the two of them almost collided their teeth.Lin Nai was not kissing him at all, but venting!Leto's lip was bitten by him, a mouth full of blood exchanged between their lips, Leto's breathing became heavier, and the smell of blood stimulated his desire.

When Lin Nai pushed him away, Leto's eyes were a little red, and he wiped the blood from his mouth: "Like to bite?"

Lin Nai smirked with a crooked face: "You are allowed to be perverted, and others are not allowed to have out-of-the-ordinary hobbies, right?"

If they weren't still fighting, Leto would just want to press him down and strip him off and go straight to work.

But the colonel is still a little sensible, no matter the time, place or physical condition, they are not suitable for excessive consumption. The next battle may be difficult to fight.If they can pass this hurdle smoothly, he and Linnai still have plenty of time in the future.

He hugged the sniper closer, and changed into a soft kiss until the blood on his mouth was completely covered by the other's taste: "I know that one day you will understand and make the right choice. Linnai, I want you You know, I'm proud of you."

The continuous kiss made Lin Nai gasp a bit, he was lost in Leto's gaze: "This is the gift you want to give me?"

"Yes," Leto hugged him, "All of this is what I want to share with you."

Lin Nai leaned against his chest, and could clearly hear his heartbeat. He closed his eyes, and this heartbeat was also a precious gift.He suddenly understood - there was a question that he hadn't thought of before, but only now did he suddenly understand - why Leto took him as a target in the first place, and showed a strange attachment to him, an attachment beyond hostility.

This guy must love me, he thought with certainty now.

Linnaeus was surprised to realize this.As if subconsciously it never occurred to him that Leto could fall in love with him, or that he didn't think Leto could fall in love with anyone, and he even wondered if Leto really longed for love.Leto has a distorted side that is different from others, including his arrogance that is almost rude. Although he seldom explains the reason, Linnai is not a fool. He knows a person who can experience emotions normally, not Leto in this way.He doubted whether Leto had an obstacle in experiencing love, and wondered whether Leto could really resonate emotionally with another person.

This is not the same as pure intimacy.Lin Nai and Leto also had an intimate relationship. They tried each other physically, kissed each other, and even formed a special intimate relationship in this ambiguous game of chasing and fleeing. Love is different.Anyone, mentally and psychologically disabled or not, can enjoy intimacy, but being able to perceive and experience love properly is an ability that not everyone has.

Lin Nai still doubts whether the love Leto experienced and what he experienced is a kind of emotion.But he felt nothing to be afraid of, he didn't care whether Leto's feelings for him were pure love, because he was sure that Leto had a unique longing for him, which made Leto taste the growing anxiety and melancholy , this desire is extremely strong, just like the heartbeat of Mr. Colonel at this moment, he will burn Leto, and remind Leto repeatedly on every scar left by Lin Nai, if he does not pursue this desire, His spirit would wear down day by day until it dried up and shriveled completely.

And this painful yet sweet experience is the closest thing Leto can touch to love.

"Are you doubting me?" Leto could see his thoughts.

Lin Nai smiled lowly: "You are like this, you make me feel that you live in my head, but you refuse me to get too close."

"Perhaps it was done to protect you." Leto teased.

Lin Nai raised his eyebrows, which was tantamount to questioning him: "Huh?"

Leto understood: "You think I'm not honest enough with you. I know about your past, but I seldom talk about myself."

"Isn't that true?"

"It's true. I didn't want to hide it from you, Linnai, I just didn't find the time to say it."

"It can be done now, anyway, we are free now."

Leto adjusted his posture and let Linnai sit in his arms.The two were leaning against the dusty corner of the wall, the moonlight hung on the wall like an old wedding dress that his mother had kept at the bottom of a box, Leto could imagine Linnai wearing a white dress.

"What do you want to know?" Leto was ready, candid as a husband on their wedding night.

Linnaeus asked: "You said where we met before, but I never remembered. Where exactly? I moved to the Border Patrol Battalion after I came back from Croatia in 91. I don't remember seeing any Bosniaks."

"It's not 91. It's normal that you can't remember it. If you can remember it, it means that my work is not doing well."

"What do you mean?"

"It was a long time ago. We met in the People's Army, not long after you returned from training in the UK. At that time, you had just served in the 'Special Mission Company' with excellent grades. I noticed you first because of your grades. Shan, very eye-catching, and then we met in the barracks, and I watched your training process." Leto said softly: "It was the summer of 1987, and I thought at that time, we must know this sniper. "

(1: On March 1991, 3, in the West Slavonia district of Croatia, the Croatian Police Army and the People's Army of the Yugoslavia had a confrontation, but because the then Prime Minister of the Yugoslavia Ante Markovic and the Federal Minister of Defense Kar Dijevich is a moderate faction and still wants to restore the unity of the Federation, so he decided to prevent the People's Army from further expanding the exchange of fire.)
