Chapter 46: Oka Kazuo
Nicolas Platonovich Ogalev is not very beautiful. In fact, he has not been in a good mood for a day since entering 1847.
At the beginning of the next year, good friend Herzen was forced into exile and suffered a huge blow. You must know that he was inseparable with Herzen when he was 13 years old, took an oath together on Sparrow Hills, was admitted to the Faculty of Law of Moscow University before and after, worshiped the December Party together, and organized Herzen-Ogalev, a utopian Socialist The group was arrested together and exiled together.
Who would have thought that one day Herzen and he would have to go to the other side, which made Augaliev feel that half of his life was missing and that the whole person was incomplete.
Not only was Herzen's departure leaving Ogalev a bit frustrated, but even more distressing was the strict censorship of Nicholas I. In order to prevent the spread of new ideas in Russia and to ensure the absoluteness of the monarchy's dictatorship, the terrorist czar set up a full twelve review committees, locking Russian intellectuals like iron clamps.
Under this extremely suffocating environment, Ogalev could not express any opinions, could not publish any works, and even the third agent was often seen in secret activities around him. Sometimes he wants to escape this suffocating country immediately and go abroad to develop with good friend Herzen.
But Herzen did not agree. The good friend told him: "Dear Nicholas, I have to leave my dearest motherland, otherwise Nicholas I will kill me like the great Pushkin. I have to save my life in exile. "
"But our great cause cannot be terminated. I need my eyes and ears to observe everything that is happening in the country. So please, my most loyal friend, be my eyes and ears! I know this is extremely painful and dangerous, but now I can only trust and It's up to you ... "
Ogalyov took on this difficult mission, telling major events in St. Petersburg and Russia one by one in the way he had agreed with Herzen. However, in the opinion of Ogalev, 1847 was undoubtedly a disappointing year. In Russia, the country was stable and stable. Nicholas I formed a tight net to monitor everything like a big spider. New youth and revolutionaries can only hide. Secretly exchange ideas in secret meetings.
For example, he just attended a progressive salon at St. Petersburg University, talked to several good friends and argued, and vented some of the backlog of depression.
"Sir, you have visitors."
As soon as I entered the house, Augaliev received a notice from the steward, and he asked indifferently, "Which gentleman?"
The steward answered with some difficulty: "Sorry, this gentleman is unwilling to reveal his name, but he has been waiting for you for several hours, saying that he will never leave without seeing you!"
Ogalyov groaned for a moment. He is not surprised by this strange visitor who hides his head and tail. In this country where there is no freedom at all, new ideas are regarded by those who are conservative and backward as stubborn beasts.
No one dared to talk about his thoughts publicly, and no one dared to express his new thinking. He even had to be very careful when dealing with dangerous people like him who registered in the third part. Who knows if there are any spies in the third part watching? Especially those young people who have just come into contact with new ideas, are particularly careful in this respect, and can only cover their heads to worship idols. Wasn't he the same then.
"This gentleman is young?" Ogalev asked casually.
"About twenty."
After hearing this answer, Ogalev was relieved for most of the time. Obviously, this is another somewhat naive "pilgrim", but he hoped that as many pilgrims as possible, the better, because that meant the awakening and harmony of young Russians. Rise.
"Take me to the reception room."
After Ogalyov untied the thick **** and handed it to the housekeeper, he quickly stepped into the reception room, and he could not wait to guide a new youth.
However, when Ogalev first met the mysterious visitor, he partially corrected his thoughts. The tall blond young man in front of him looks young but has a unique temperament. He is not the immature young man who only read a few progressive books after imagination:
人 This man's head, chest, limbs and slenderness contain the temperament of an athlete, which is completely different from those young intellectuals who have been buried in books for a long time. In particular, those eyes are completely bright and full of power. This is completely different from the new youth who have just come into contact with new ideas. At this time, the eyes are more confused, they have too many questions, they do n’t think about them, they have too many questions. answer.
Obviously, Ogalev's eyes didn't have so many questions to answer, nor was he asking for his confusion. On the contrary, there is a kind of perseverance in the other person's body that is unique to the soldier. Is this the third undercover agent who is newly developed?
The third gendarmerie is best at playing such mean means. Every year, a group of junior officers graduated from military academies are selected to be sent to the attention list. uukanshu.com pretends that the revolutionary youth is exploring information. Many professors, scholars, and social activists with new ideas have fallen under this despicable method.
Immediately, Ogalyov aroused vigilance. While carefully observing the slight expression of the visitor, he tentatively asked, "Sir, I heard that you are determined to meet with me. I don't know how to teach you?
"Are you Mr. Nikola Platonovich Ogalev?"
The caller seemed not quite convinced that the person in front of him was Augaliev, or that he felt that Augalev should not have the ordinary appearance in front of him. As a follower of the December Party, as a rare dangerous member who has been exiled by Nicholas I since the December Party, how can it be a little dangerous? How is this ordinary government official in front of him?
"I'm Augaliev!"
The caller still didn't believe it, and asked again: "Is it Ogalyov, the close comrade of Mr. Herzen?"
Ogalev felt that his relationship with Herzen was well-known to everyone, and there was no need to deny: "It's next!"
Tao Lairen was lost in thought and seemed hesitant. This made Ogalyov very strange. What happened to the other party over his identity? Isn't the spy in Part 3 so incompetent? There is everything in the third part of his portrait. Need to be confirmed face to face?
Ogalev asked inquisitively: "What do you have to teach? Or what did you do to me?"
The comer looked at him and thought again and again, and then hesitated and hesitated and said, "Sorry, you are completely different from my imagination. But this is not the point. The point is that I have no other way now. I can only ... I can only ask for your help. As far as I know, you know Mr. Nikola Alexeyevich Nekrasov? "
