Chapter 62: Prison Mercenaries
At this time, the locust remembered the question that had been bothering him all along. If the prison guards knew about this, why did they try to make this rainforest a ground? The locust didn't go ahead this time, he followed closely behind Li Yi, and he couldn't erase this question in his mind.
It stands to reason that if there is a way to go deep into the rainforest to investigate, guard or track, there will always be something waiting for them. Is it really like Li Yi said, this thing is poisonous?
Thinking so, the locust unconsciously felt some water in his stomach.
He raised his head and was about to ask something, but Li Yi took the lead.
"Then again, locust, why do you know that the jailers here are actually mercenaries?" Li Yi's question made the locusts a little at a loss.
"Did I say that?" The locust knew that even if he prevaricated, he couldn't hide it from Li Yi's eyes, and the locust breathed a sigh of relief, so he simply told these things. "Forget it, I won't hide it from you."
The locust was ready to confess everything he knew in this prison. At least Li Yi saw the attitude of the locusts and made such a judgment, obviously, there is no need to hide it.
Sure enough, there is something hidden. Song Yushu glanced back at the locust, and his eyes seemed to say such a sentence, but because of the locust's obscenity, of course he didn't dare to interrupt.
As early as when he was escorted to this iron-clad prison, Song Yushu did not give up his escape early on. It is better to say that whenever there is a little hope, a little wind and grass, he will also rise to the top, no matter how much he despises himself, and how despicable his life is, but survival is obviously more important to him.
Otherwise, he would not have participated in the adventurous actions of Li Yi and the locusts.
Fetching water and wiping the walls in the prison guard's police room is the first thing he does every day.
This day is certainly no exception. Song Yushu has been in prison for a few days, and his status is not even as good as that of a worm lying on the ground, and it is not bad to be able to fall into such an errand. He bent his legs in the corner, shook off the jet-black rag, and the muddy water in the rusty iron bucket was still usable in Song Yushu's opinion.
He wrung out the rag and began to wipe the walls. The police office is different from the interior of the holy tower, and the ancient walls are naturally mostly bricks made of limestone and other natural rocks, which are quite uneven, and they are not used except for picking up some garbage on weekdays.
But here it is different. Song Yushu raised his head, the wall skin was dark green, and the structure of the rolled skin looked old and old, and there was no sense of design and art. But in fact the building is much younger than the Holy Tower, which is made of reinforced concrete.
The fortification was also heard by Song Yushu from his fellow inmates. He had only heard it once, and it had been explicitly mentioned by fellow inmates who had committed some minor incidents, and it looked very different from ordinary prisons, and the castles and fortifications did not look at all like a prisoner's house, but rather like a fortress ready to go, or a small country of mercenaries.
Where did the fortifications come from? Song Yushu didn't dare to ask out loud at that time, although he was indeed curious. But now, it seems, there is no more opportunity to ask. He didn't know where the cellmate had gotten the news, but anyway, the source had disappeared into thin air, and they couldn't ask.
With this curiosity, Song Yushu carried a small dilapidated bucket, and the half bucket of sewage dangling in the bucket could not be cleaned no matter what. But Song Yushu didn't care about this, after wiping these modern walls, this time he didn't return immediately.
There weren't many prison guards in these police offices, at least not much he could see. One hand holds the rag, Shun
Rubbing all the way against the wall, Song Yushu's thin body was covered with scars, and these were not important. He pressed one side of his body against the wall, so he might be able to hear something.
He thought. If this group of prison guards, or this Southeast Asian prison, is really anything to do.
"Handled?"
The sound of heavy leather boots came, and Song Yushu wiped back and forth on the wall, trying his best to hide his strange movements, and the sound also penetrated into his ears little by little from the concrete.
"Make it clear to the above, don't throw this garbage outside."
Sounding somewhat familiar, Song Yushu suddenly came to his senses. He even felt that he had heard it somewhere, and from this he could tell that the jailer in the police room was indeed hiding something.
"Stop complaining, you know what it's called? Zhao'an, co-opted, have a good meal. ”
"Fuck Zhao'an."
Song Yushu was terrified when he heard this, he felt that his breathing was about to freeze, and he desperately suppressed his breathing, not daring to make a sound. Although he couldn't tell the cause and effect in a few words, it was clear that the secrets involved in these conversations were indeed extraordinary.
"Then what should I do, I'm not afraid of the gang on the other side of the river?"
"The above means, retreat into the woods."
"You're dead? Where can people be treated? Besides, the so-called reorganization has never been active at all, which is not the same as what was said before. Is it we who sell our lives, and are we the ones who wipe our butts in the end? ”
"Isn't there betel nut, and besides, they probably don't have the ability to do it."
"Fart. It's okay to say that this thing works, and besides, you don't know what this thing is doing? ”
Song Yushu couldn't listen anymore, his grinding movements finally began to be exposed, he was hit with thick leather boots on his stomach, and his thin body was hit a few more times, and he suspected that his stomach pouch might break. But it is clear that these so-called "prison guards" do not take such trivial matters to heart.
Of course, they didn't suspect Song Yushu of eavesdropping, otherwise they wouldn't have been so cheap for him. In the eyes of a group of prison guards, whether in prison or outside the prison, Song Yushu, who lives like maggots, cannot be contacted for this kind of behavior at all.
At best, it's just lazy.
Song Yushu made up his mind to escape from this place.
However, when he actually got to the woods, he realized that maybe it was a bad decision. In the darkness, he couldn't see it very clearly, but Song Yushu really felt the strong smell of corpse decay, as well as the viciousness that penetrated his heart.
"They're none other than a bunch of stateless mercenaries." The locust's first words made Song Yushu's back sweat, and he felt afraid. Maybe that adventure will probably cost you half your life.
I don't know if it's lucky or unlucky, this kind of discrimination may have saved my life.
"How can mercenaries work for the government?" Li Yi didn't understand this. Of course, there are large and small forces in Southeast Asia, which are mercenaries, to put it mildly, hired by different employers, governments or organizations, wandering on the fringes of legal countries, and even participating in fires and wars, which can be regarded as a group of outlaws. Li Yi understands this.
"Judging by their uniforms, mercenaries do not have a systematic command and armament." Li Yi couldn't imagine that in such a large prison under the government, how could it be a mercenary
Guard.
"There's nothing strange about that." The locust shook his head, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, his teeth were like blades, and he looked at Li Yi, a little proud. In Southeast Asia, especially in the shadows beyond the light, all of Li Yi's knowledge has to be reshaped, and in this experience, locusts penetrate far deeper and more deeply than Li Yi.
"They are a group of prisoners who are not sorry to die, and some small government forces in Southeast Asia cannot afford to raise troops or armed forces, so it is not surprising that they have joined forces to raise a mercenary."
Li Yi has not heard of the statement of locusts, but he never thought that such a fully armed "prison guard" with the quality of the regular army would be a mercenary.
"Why are they willing to be co-opted by the government?" Li Yi frowned and asked, he felt that the mystery in this was deeper than he imagined.
"I can't figure that out either. And their hiding skills are really good, and it's a shame that you can find out. It seems that only when certain prisoners are taken in will they show their signs, and I don't know if it's a deterrent or some other reason. "The locusts are talking about the troops hiding on the islands. For ordinary prisoners, after they went to the island, they actually couldn't see these heavily armed troops, and they could see more, that is, the jailers who were paired with ordinary prisons, at most carrying two guns.
"It's a natural prison in itself." Li Yi couldn't figure it out. "Even if you don't need heavy troops, if the prisoners want to escape, supplies and transportation are natural barriers, and this island is very dangerous...... Are they afraid of something. ”
"Locust, how the hell did you find out?" Li Yi suddenly realized something. "When did you notice this?"
"To outsiders, of course, this is a secret, but how can Lao Tzu not recognize it." A wry smile appeared at the corner of the locust's mouth. "Why are these people guarding against you, Li Yi, Lao Tzu hasn't figured it out yet, but the reason why he showed Lao Tzu is that he can't hide it from Lao Tzu."
"Twenty years ago, it was the troops brought up by Lao Tzu." The locust sighed with emotion and said: "Although it has nothing to do with Lao Tzu now, it is still the team that I have led, and their habitual actions and codes, Lao Tzu still remembers them very clearly." ”
With that said, the locust decided to continue on its way.
Li Yi glanced at the locust meaningfully.
"What the hell is your purpose, locust?" Li Yi found that maybe he took the burly man in front of him too lightly, he was not only strong, shrewd, and fierce, but until now, Li Yi even felt that in terms of strategy and overall situation, this seemingly simple person was not worse than himself.
"Money, otherwise what else can there be." The locust turned his back and didn't look at Li Yi to answer. His burly body shook and headed straight into the jungle, knowing that if he made it through, he would be one step closer to his destination.
Song Yushu also got up and tried his best to follow behind.
At the end, Li Yi looked at the locust, the relationship between this man and the organization behind him, the mercenary is far more than as he said, and more importantly, he has nothing at the moment, and the ambition and fighting spirit that burst out of his eyes don't make sense at all.
The locust's eyes did not reveal something like that of a person facing a desperate situation. On the contrary, he firmly believes that as long as he gets out of this predicament, he can make a comeback. Locusts should have such conviction.
Why. Li Yi couldn't figure it out.
