My colleague's face suddenly became serious.
"What? Are you sure?" asked the colleague.
"Yes. It was sent to Yuezhou, China, without a stamp."
My colleague said seriously, "Let me see the letter."
The postman took out the only letter in the bag and threw it on his colleague's desk.
My colleague picked up the letter carefully, as if he was dealing with a bomb, and carefully confirmed the address on the front.
"It was indeed sent to China, and the sender and sender's address were not written."
Then the colleague held up the letter towards the sunlight coming in through the window.
He saw the shadow of the memory card in the envelope.
So he picked up the phone on the table and skillfully dialed his "aunt's" number.
"Hello, my dear Hans, when will you come to see poor old aunt?"
"Aunt, I have a gift for you," said the colleague.
There was a beeping sound, and then the kind old lady's voice disappeared, replaced by a calm female voice: "Hello, how can I help you?"
……
Soon, several plainclothes agents came to the post office and took away the letters sent to China that the Stasi's "collaborators" had found.
An hour later, the memory card in the letter was delivered by plane to the Stasi headquarters in East Berlin and placed on the desk of a senior intelligence analyst.
The memory card was then inserted into a computer that was physically isolated from the entire Stasi network.
The only file on the memory card: a video, was quickly sent to analysts at the Stasi headquarters.
About four hours later, the preliminary analysis report of the video was sent to the Stasi head Hermann.
"Except for Gundam and Robocop, the characters in the video don't match those of Masha and his group. I think the sender wrote Masha's address to ensure that the letter would be noticed by us or the KGB."
Hellman glanced at the senior analyst who came to report and nodded. "This is a letter to us, and this video is also for us. This organization that calls itself the Chosen Vigilantes wants to use us to tell Josephine that her enemy has been killed by the vigilantes. Now the question is, is the person really dead?"
The senior analyst shook his head: "I'm not sure. The video has been heavily degraded. It's definitely not first-hand. It's possible to be fake. But we compared Maxim's voiceprint, at least the voiceprint is his."
Herman said nothing, but just played with the pen in his hand and thought.
His deputy, standing next to the senior analysts, asked, "Should we tell Comrade Josephine?"
"Yes." Hermann said, "The vigilante will most likely ask Josephine for compensation after accepting this commission. We can take this opportunity to find out the intentions of this organization that has finally made itself known."

Chapter 494: Too Magical (Part )
Comrade Josephine is still in the detention cell.
It has been exactly 33 hours since I last met Masha and the others.
But as an agent, Comrade Josephine is best at waiting, and what she has the most is patience.
She firmly believed that the clues she left behind were enough to help her find her enemy.
All that remains is whether Ying is willing to avenge her.
At this moment, the door of the confinement room suddenly opened.
Comrade Vladimir came in and looked at Josephine.
Josephine and Vladimir looked at each other.
Finally, Vladimir spoke up: "Maxim Rosenberg disappeared from the training camp yesterday. Today, the Stasi found a letter sent to the address of Masha's maid shop. The memory card inside contained the video of Maxim's 'trial' and murder."
Comrade Josephine curled up the corners of her mouth for a moment, but she immediately controlled her expression.
Vladimir seemed not to notice Comrade Josephine's momentary loss of composure, and continued to speak: "We are verifying the authenticity of the video. At present, the preliminary judgment is that the video has been deliberately degraded, which has caused a lot of trouble for our identification.
"But analysts don't seem to think the degradation is intended to prevent us from identifying authenticity. It's more like an operation to remove unnecessary information from the video."
Comrade Josephine asked, "Was it Shadow who did it?"
——It must have been done by Ying. No one else could have kidnapped Maxim from the training camp filled with people with super powers and instructors with both super powers and combat abilities.
Josephine was surprised. Vladimir shook his head. "No, it's not Shadow. When Maxim disappeared, we detected the fluctuations of the Gundam. And in the video, the one holding Maxim was the Gundam and the Robocop."
Vladimir paused.
"This organization calls itself the Chosen Vigilantes. They claim that killing Maxim is a punishment for the crimes he committed in Castle XXXX. It seems that your little plan has attracted not Shadow, but Shadow's enemy."
Josephine looked at Vladimir and said, "I don't care who responds to me, as long as Maxim is dead, that's enough."
"He may not be dead," Vladimir reminded. "Even if the final result of the video authentication is true, it is possible that our analysts made a wrong judgment. Or the video is real, but what happened in the video is a stunt."
Comrade Josephine remained silent.
She always had a feeling that Maxim was really dead.
There was no basis for her thinking this way, maybe she just felt better thinking this way.
Vladimir had been staring at Comrade Josephine. He suddenly said, "This vigilante organization may have really killed Maxim Rosenberg just to enforce justice. If that's the case, they will most likely not continue to contact you. Your plan to become a double agent between us and the secret society will most likely fail."
Vladimir gave Comrade Josephine some time to fully understand what he meant, and then he said: "If you can't be a double agent, what are you going to do?"
Comrade Josephine replied calmly, "I don't have any special ideas. I have only one goal from beginning to end, and that is revenge. I don't have the time and energy to plan my life after revenge."
Vladimir nodded. "Well, I accept your statement. But I still want to remind you that now that the Stasi no longer trusts you, if you have no possibility of becoming a double agent, the KGB will not keep you for free."
Comrade Josephine smiled and said, "I think I am better than many KGB agents. Not recruiting me would be a big loss for the KGB."
Vladimir shrugged. "Spy organizations value loyalty more than ability. Isn't that natural? If you want us to ignore the issue of loyalty, you must be valuable enough. Of course, it's not certain whether you are valuable yet. After all, the vigilantes may still come into contact with you."
"clear."
Josephine nodded.
"Thank you for coming here to tell me this."
Vladimir shrugged his shoulders and turned to walk out, but suddenly turned back and said to Comrade Josephine: "Congratulations on your revenge."
Comrade Josephine smiled.
Vladimir left the confinement cell.
Comrade Josephine leaned back against the wall and looked at the ceiling.
——At a time like this, should I be happy?
Comrade Josephine stared blankly at the ceiling, thinking about this question that had no answer.
**
Mrs. M read the report sent back by the mole from the Stasi and sighed deeply.
“It was actually these people who took action.”
She shook her head.
If you think about it carefully, these guys who call themselves vigilantes also have a close connection with Masha.
Ms. M pulled up the report on this group of guys who called themselves vigilantes - now the entire MI6 has replaced the code name given to the organization behind "Gundam" and "Robocop" in its internal files with "Vigilance".
After retrieving the report, Ms. M carefully read the report and the data mentioned in the appendix.
——This group of people has been operating in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union in recent days, and has captured a large number of people with super powers.
——But according to the report, the people with super powers who were captured by the vigilantes were almost all those who had done something out of the ordinary, in other words, criminals.
——This vigilante organization is an organization that hunts down criminals with super powers!
——When you think about it this way, there is a high possibility that the video is not fake.
- While monitoring Masha, they heard the East German female spy mention that the enemy who destroyed her hometown was spared punishment because of his voluntary surrender, so they took this guy out of the East German training camp and executed him after trial.
Ms. M looked at the whiteboard that had been added to her office only a few days ago. It was now covered with various photos, newspaper clippings, and other clues.
The related clues are connected by thumbtacks and thin lines, and the entire whiteboard looks like a huge spider web covering the surface.
Ms. M looked at the spider web.
——After the vigilantes get involved, this spider web will become even more complicated.
Looking at the whiteboard, Ms. M sighed again.
——It is already difficult to convince everyone that Masha can command the shadows. It is probably even more difficult to convince everyone that Masha can command the vigilantes.
——And I also think that for a kid under 19 years old, whether commanding a shadow or a vigilante, it’s a bit too magical.
——Masha probably only has a greater influence on the shadows or vigilantes.
——However, I have no evidence to prove this, everything is just my inference.
--yes……
Ms. M curled her lips and admitted for the first time that it was her intuition that made her suspicious of Masha.

Chapter 495: Gaining the traditional wisdom of the ancient country, Master Tie no longer makes blind guesses (rd update)
At the same time, Iron Master Johnny of course also received this information.
"Sure enough, just as I expected, the Shadow and Vigilante organizations are the same secret society that split due to different ideologies." He said excitedly to Ben, "And this video, even though the other party has been trying to cover it up, still reveals a lot of information."
Ben: "Intelligence? Does it mean their base is on the seashore?"
"No, no, I think this beach is a trick. Don't believe it. You should be familiar with the Chinese classical military tactics. It emphasizes..."
“So I am capable but show that I am incapable.” Ben simply recited the content.
Johnny gave a thumbs up: "Yes, that's it. So we can ignore the seaside, but here!"
Johnny pointed to the grass in the picture.
"See? This grass. Even though I'm not a botanist, I know that this kind of grass can't grow on the sand by the sea."
Ben pushed up his glasses, observed carefully and nodded: "Yes, this is not grass growing on the seashore. The salinity of the seawater has a great impact on herbaceous plants. These grasses will not be found so close to the sea."
"So why do you think this grass is here?" Johnny asked. "Did the camouflage crew make a stupid technical mistake?"
Ben: "Would they make such a stupid mistake? Maybe they did it on purpose to mislead us. So, they are really at the beach?"
"No, no, it doesn't matter where they are. It doesn't matter at all. Think about it, would a normal person put grass on the beach? No, there are only coconut trees next to the beach. This is the normal way of thinking."
Johnny confidently stepped forward and pointed at the grass: "This thing shouldn't be there at all. No matter how they intend to mislead us, they shouldn't deliberately lay a kind of grass here that shouldn't appear on the beach so close to the sea. No, it shouldn't be there.
"In Sherlock Holmes, Conan Doyle said, 'After eliminating all possible options, no matter how absurd the remaining option is, it is the truth.' This grass is a mistake, but it is not a mistake to deceive the enemy. The enemy did not notice the existence of this grass at all."
Ben suddenly realized: "The place where they filmed this video, this grass grows so close to the sea. No, it is impossible for grass to grow so close to the sea under natural conditions... This is not the sea, it is a freshwater lake! It is a wetland!"
"No, no," Johnny shook his head again, "No, if that's the case, this beach scene was deliberately created. They wouldn't make such a low-level mistake as having grass on the beach. Ben, didn't you understand what I just quoted from Holmes? Be ridiculous! You are still bound by common sense and not ridiculous enough."
Johnny excitedly paced back and forth in front of the screen that froze the video.
"They are at the seaside, and there is grass on the beach. It is so unreasonable, but because they stay in this environment every day, they are used to it, so they ignore this detail. They may be very smart and cunning, but doesn't your favorite Chinese proverb say it?"
"Even the wisest can make mistakes." Ben continued, "Because we are so used to it, we tend to overlook such details. Well, that makes sense. But where can we find such a beach?"
"Nowhere. That's why I said they leaked very important information." Johnny's eyes sparkled, a classic expression of a scientist who got inspiration and gained a new idea. "We used to think with common sense, but now that spiritual energy has revived, we should think in uncommon ways. Come on, Ben, let's brainstorm. There must be no such beach on earth, so..."
"Alien planet?" Ben came up with the first idea, then shook his head. "No, even if it is an alien planet... can an alien planet produce salt-tolerant herbaceous organisms?"
"No, no, you are still constrained by your scientific thinking. This is how it should be. Let me show you."
Johnny paused, cleared his throat in a very artificial way, and then said, "For example, Arcadia."
Ben: “WHAT?”
