Chapter 17: Ambush

"There are three groups of patrol officers on the outermost perimeter, ten men each, all armed. Inside, there are two groups of five people on irregular lines, also heavily armed. ”

"There are secret sentry posts on the two buildings next to it, and there will be no small number of them, and it is likely that there are snipers hidden."

"It's not clear from inside the building, but judging from the frequency of people coming in and out, there are at least forty or fifty people, many of whom are still carrying weapons."

At this time, Lu Ming and his entourage of six people were hiding in the bushes, secretly observing a community called "Creation Celebrity".

This community is where Gao Yu and the others were previously imprisoned, and it is also the location of the clone organization that Johnson wants to investigate. There is a residential building in the community that has been completed but not delivered, and the others are unfinished buildings, some have not yet been capped, and some are even only half built.

Due to the long-term uninhabited area, the huge community has long been a scene of thatched grass and ruined walls, but a closer look can still show that there are obvious traces of manual cleaning around the completed residential building and the one next to it, and some armed men in camouflage uniforms are constantly patrolling in and out of the vicinity, so it is certain that there are strange things in these two places.

"Brother Lu, the building they keep coming in and out of is the base, and the building next to it is where we are being held."

Lu Ming nodded, observed for a while and said: "There were originally two entrances and exits in the place where you were held, but one was sealed, and now there is only one left, and it is watched by four guards, three white and one black. ”

"Hey, wait, wait." Just when Lu Ming and Gao Yu were constantly exchanging information, Tom on the side finally couldn't help it, and he asked very suspiciously: "Lu, did you see what you just said?" How is this possible?! We're also at least 1,000 feet (about 300 meters) away from there, how do you do that.

'Are you carrying weapons', 'Hidden snipers', 'Sealed entrances', or even 'Guards' skin colors', oh my God, why do you see so much information when I can only see a few patrols at the front? ”

Tom had long been stupefied by Lu Ming's amazing visual ability, it was almost impossible to observe the enemy situation in such detail at such a long distance, without a telescope.

Lu Ming shrugged his shoulders and replied, "I don't know what's going on, maybe it's talent." You should know that some people have been very powerful in a certain aspect since childhood, such as Xiao Ran. ”

As soon as Tom heard Lu Ming mention Xiao Ran, he immediately wilted, the previous fiasco is vivid, and it is estimated that he will not be able to forget it in this life.

"What do you think we're going to do next?" Unlike Tom, Johnson chose to turn a blind eye to Lu Ming's inhuman talents, and at the same time, he also fulfilled his previous promise well, taking Lu Ming as the main driver in everything and obeying the unified command arrangement. If you put aside the previous pit of Lu Ming, teammates like Johnson are still very popular.

"Let's go around the back and take a look, and if the defense is still so tight, we'll have to wait."

"Wait? How long to wait? Wouldn't that be a great opportunity? ”

"Whether it's a good opportunity or not is a separate view. We only have one advantage now, and that is that the other side doesn't know that we've escaped, and they don't think we're going to be here. However, we also have many disadvantages, first, I don't know the specific situation inside, you want to find a traitor, Xiao Ran wants to find a mother, but who of you knows their specific location? Which building and which floor are you going to look for? Second, the opponent's numbers and firepower are stronger than ours, and we can only rush hard except to wait for the opportunity, but doing so will inevitably pay a great price, and may even be wiped out. If we take 10,000 steps back, even if we are lucky enough to rush in, I am afraid that the people inside will have already been evacuated, and they will still find nothing after all. ”

"And what do you mean?" Johnson is also a battle-hardened person, he was just a little impulsive because of the traitor's matter before, but after calming down, he naturally understood that what Lu Ming said was very reasonable, so he asked again.

"Wait for two opportunities. First, wait until it's dark. As soon as it gets dark and visibility decreases, the strength of the defense is bound to weaken, which is conducive to us sneaking in and looking for targets. Second, et al. If my judgment is correct, those who have surrounded us will inevitably send someone to report it, and if we can intercept them in advance, we will have a lot to do! ”

"How can you be sure that the people inside don't know the fact that we have escaped, this is just a matter of phone calls, how can they send someone to report the news."

"If the people inside knew that we were still alive, the patrol people would not be so casual, you are an important figure in the Black Awakening Party, and once the matter of encircling and suppressing you is revealed, they will inevitably fear the retaliation of the Black Awakening Party. But when I looked closely, there was no nervousness on their faces, and there was no additional arming, so I'm sure these people don't quite know the specifics, at least not yet.

As for why someone came back to report the news, it was actually a speculation on my part, and even a gamble. ”

"Bet on what?"

"I'm betting that the people who surrounded us didn't come back to tell us about the defeat, but to ask for help. In fact, as long as we haven't returned to α City, they still have a chance to turn the tables, as long as they can catch up and kill us quickly, they can still sit back and relax!

Now that they have lost our tracks, they will have to expand the search area even further, so nine times out of ten they will come back and ask for help. ”

Johnson nodded and said, "In this way, we must kill these people in advance, otherwise, those rescued may be in danger." ”

In addition to the six of them, there were several clones who had been rescued before and Luo Shuiqing were arranged in a relatively safe place, but if the enemy intensified the search and arrest, they would inevitably be in danger.

Lu Ming affirmed Johnson's statement, while adding: "So what we have to do is be patient!" ”

After investigating the surrounding situation in detail again, the time had come to evening, and the helpers that Lu Ming guessed finally appeared at this moment.

It was a heavily armed squad of five, the leader was a lewd man with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks, who didn't look like a good thing, and the other four looked strong and powerful, quite a bit of a bodyguard.

"Johnson, you have injuries, don't act rashly, just help us keep an eye on the situation around us. Tom, I'll leave the leading lewd man to you, and the other four will be left to us, and everything will go according to plan. Remember, don't let them shoot, if you make a fuss, you'll lose all your work. ”

"Ready, hands!"
