Chapter 107: Missed
"What?!Eight locations?Is your information reliable?" On the phone, Xiao Jian asked in disbelief.
On the second day after returning to Ah L City, Yu Zhe, who got the information, contacted Xiao Jian and Qi Ya in S City as soon as possible, and briefly described the information in the information to them.
In fact, when he saw the eight locations, Yu Zhe was also a little surprised, he thought that three or four would be about the same, and the three of them set off together, and they would soon be able to confirm the location.
But now it's complicated, everyone has to go to at least two places, and even if they leave after confirmation, the process will take less than a week.
It's possible to get the right spot the first time, but it's always possible to find it last, so you can only use the worst-case scenario as a criterion when making a plan.
"Reliable. Yu Zhe thought about the balance in the card, and he was convinced of the information in his hand, if he was going to be deceived, he would definitely go to Ms. Tao with a knife.
"Okay, you send us a copy of the information, and we'll make a plan after reading it. Xiao Jian and the others couldn't find a channel to investigate, so they could only choose to believe Yu Zhe.
"No, I've already booked a ticket for the afternoon, let's meet and talk again. ”
Yu Zhe didn't feel at ease to pass the information directly to them, after all, it was only a temporary alliance, and there was nothing to reason with if he was cheated by the other party.
"Okay, what time is the plane, we'll pick you up. Xiao Jian understood Yu Zhe's concerns, and didn't say anything else, anyway, he was going to go abroad in the future, S City, as a first-tier city, has more convenient transportation, in short, it's not a big problem.
"Eight o'clock in the evening. ”
After speaking, Yu Zhe hung up the phone, checked the suitcase again, made sure that all the things were on him, and before leaving, knocked on the door of Twilight's house again.
Unexpectedly, no one responded.
After standing for a long time, he turned around silently, not knowing if he could come back alive after this walk.
The plane was not delayed, arrived in S City on time at eight o'clock, and after successfully reconciling with Xiao Jian, Yu Zhe went to their base again.
"These bases are too far away...... Qi Ya looked at the information brought by Yu Zhe and complained a little desperately
In the basement, three people sat in a circle, each holding a few pieces of information, and in the middle of them was a huge map of the world, which had been marked with a red marker, indicating the location mentioned in the information.
According to the information, the ghost mercenary group is haunted, and their bases are all temporary residences, and they will be relocated every once in a while, so many of the locations that can be investigated have actually been abandoned, but because outsiders can't tell the difference, it will cause problems that seem to have many bases, and in fact, there may only be one or two real ones.
When I saw the map, these eight "real and false bases" were all built at the location of the border line, probably to facilitate the transfer or temporary settlement
"I have to investigate from afar......" Xiao Jian also had a headache when he looked at it, now Feng Yiwen's life and death are uncertain, every minute and second are crucial, but the distance proves that they will delay a lot of time on the road, which is very unfavorable.
"We can only divide the survey, and everyone will search for areas that are relatively close to each other, and this situation can only be hoped for...... Find them in the first place. ”
Yu Zhe put forward an idea, which was in line with what the other two thought, but it was easy to divide the area, and it would be difficult to assign whoever surveyed that area.
This is also a transnational task, and the languages spoken in several positions that need to be involved are not the same, communication is a huge problem, and only Qi Ya can speak foreign languages fluently among several people, Xiao Jian is a half-ass, and Yu Zhe is ignorant.
But Qi Ya was injured again, the amount of work can't be too big, and she can't expect her to go to the right position, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with, so the only place among the few people who only goes to two locations falls on her, but the same, these two positions are relatively farthest away.
For Yu Zhe, the three locations he wants to go to are all very close to country K, and one of them is even near the border of the neighboring country, but these positions are very dangerous and the most likely, Xiao Jian originally wanted to go, but he had to give up because of Yu Zhe's communication barrier.
"Without further ado, I consider that they are most likely at the nearest point to us now, and I will leave tomorrow and let you know as soon as I find them. ”
At the end of the task assignment, Yu Zhe took the lead in saying that if it wasn't for the first flight to be available on another day, otherwise he would really choose to leave overnight.
"I think so too, but after all, it's been five days, they may have moved, and Qi Ya and I will also set off early tomorrow morning, so we must try to be as prepared as possible......"
Xiao Jian agreed with Yu Zhe's idea, but also had some concerns, this information is very detailed, but it is unknown how it was investigated, whether it has been startled and the other party has been transferred......
I just hope it's all too much.
In the end, the three of them decided on the whole process, as well as the details of how to contact after discovering the clues, and said that they would rest early, but in fact they all stayed awake all night.
Even though their positions are different, they all have the same worries about their companions, Yu Zhe's thoughts about the twilight of the time needless to say, and for Xiao Jian and Qi Ya, Feng Yiwen is like his own younger brother, although sometimes he is also annoyed by his "chatterbox", but in this already cold and ruthless industry, it is lucky to have someone who trusts and relies on each other.
The two of them never thought about what they would do if Feng Yiwen died, because they couldn't accept this result at all from the bottom of their hearts, and they might choose to rush into the mercenary's base like a moth to a fire to take revenge.
In the anxiety, time flew by, and the sky was bright in a blink of an eye, Yu Zhe thought that the two were still sleeping, and left quietly with suitcases, but in fact, both of them noticed him, but neither of them spoke.
The process along the way will not be repeated, and Yu Zhe successfully arrived at the country where the first location is located.
Although it is adjacent to country K, the economic level is very different from country K, just looking very backward, and there are too many people here, from the moment I got off the plane, I only felt that the places as far as the eye could see were full of people, this atmosphere made Yu Zhe feel a headache, but there was no other way but to continue the investigation.
From the moment he got off the plane, Yu Zhe drove for another two hours before reaching the vicinity of the target location.
It is very close to the national border, and it is a mountainous terrain, so as early as a few kilometers away, the driver said that he could not continue to go deeper, so he had to get out of the car and move forward on foot.
Since there is only an approximate location on the data, and it is not accurate to the degree of latitude and longitude, it is still up to luck to find the specific location.
Although Yu Zhe's physical strength is superior, he is still a little tired after the endless five-hour journey, looking at the sky, it is almost dusk, and the already rugged mountain road is even more difficult to move forward in the dim light.
Yu Zhe stopped slightly, sorted out the equipment on his body, brought the bright flashlight he had prepared with him, and took a few bites of compressed biscuits by the way, although he was very hungry, he just couldn't eat inexplicably, maybe it was just a mental effect, and when he didn't find them for a minute, he couldn't sleep.
After a few minutes of short adjustments, Yu Zhe was on the road again, like a keen wolf, not letting go of any details around him, hoping to find traces of his prey.
It was another long and boring search, and it was Huang Tian who made him smell the prey, and there were obvious traces of walking on a path, and it seemed that there were quite a few people, although it had been dealt with, but there were still traces of clues.
At this time, the sky has completely darkened, a large number of clouds cover the moon, this huge mountain forest, only the flashlight in Yu Zhe's hand shines, the surroundings are surprisingly quiet, only the sound of his feet walking on the road can be heard.
The sharpness of his senses was turned up to the maximum, and it was really difficult to track the slightest trace of innocence in such a hostile environment, but he didn't want to delay the time to stop longer, and once he couldn't find the person he was looking for, he would immediately return to the next location.
Every minute he delays has the potential to hurt Twilight.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but speed up his pace again.
Soon, he found an even stronger clue - traces of a trap had been placed.
It seems that we are not far from the right place.
After some inspection, Yu Zhe found that these traces were very new, it seemed that someone had removed these traps not long ago, and then groped around, and sure enough, several similar traces were found.
He secretly screamed in his heart that it was not good, according to common sense, the traps were arranged to ensure the safety of the base, so as not to invade uninvited guests, but when the people of the base left, these traps would be removed, so as not to accidentally touch the trap and kill the climbers who strayed into the deep mountains.
This may be a sign that the people in the base have left, and they have just left.
Although the facts seem to be in front of him, Yu Zhe still decided to go and see for himself, maybe there will be some unexpected gains.
He looked around by the light, and found that he had unconsciously walked to a relatively flat area, and continued to move forward, it seemed that he felt suddenly enlightened in an instant, surrounded by trees, there was an open grassland covering an area of several hundred square meters, and he could vaguely see that several brick houses had been built, but there was no light there, which seemed to be the bad guess in Yu Zhe's heart.
Walking up quickly, Although he basically knew the situation inside, Yu Zhe still chose to observe cautiously before carefully pushing the door in.
The room had long been empty, the electricity had been cut off, and the lights didn't work at all, so he had to continue to check the room inch by inch with the strong flashlight on his hand.
This seems to be a conference room, with a five-meter-long table in the center of the room, no chairs, and a huge blackboard on the wall on the right hand side of the door, with a few magnets in the corner, which seem to be used for pasting paper materials.
There was also a small inconspicuous door in the corner of the room, which opened to reveal only a single bed and a very ordinary chair.
Other than that, the whole room was clean, as if no one had ever lived here, and there was no clue to it.
Close the door and search for several other brick houses, all of them are clean, except for those beds, tables and chairs that cannot be transferred, they are really all that can be taken away.
Yu Zhe was a little uncomfortable, he was still a step late after all.
There was no time to grieve, he took advantage of the field and opened the map in his backpack, since the clue had been broken, then he could only continue to implement it according to the plan.
The next place to go is in country Y, which is a perennial war-torn country, and from time to time it will fight with other countries because of religious issues, of course, only the external struggle is not enough, and in recent days it seems that they have a little internal problem, which has led to the struggle between the official army and the militia organizations to break out.
It can be said that this is the most dangerous of the eight locations, and Yu Zhe originally wanted to put it in third place, but if you think about it carefully, if you can make a large group of mercenaries suddenly change their positions, the most likely thing is to go out on a mission, and in its current form, the most likely place to have a mission is Country Y.
After determining the goal after that, Yu Zhe quickly put away the map, cleared the traces of his coming, and walked back into the dark mountain forest with firm steps.
