Hawkeye then pulled out a sketch from the inside pocket of his jacket.

The sketch shows you the large and small houses, which is a map of the location of the old neighborhood we visited yesterday. There are several places that have been circled in red by Hawkeye, which is obviously the place where Xiao Ning's parents are held.

Hawkeye told me that Ning's parents were imprisoned in a room deep in the backyard of a restaurant. There was a cellar in that room, and I climbed down the stairs to the bottom of the cellar, where Xiao Ning's parents were locked up. There were two people patrolling the courtyard outside the room, and about four or five people in the room were in charge of keeping an eye on the shadows, and about seven or eight people were guarding the cellar as they climbed down the cellar.

I asked, with some confusion, "Why do you know so much about how many people are in the cellar?" Have you ever gone down? ”

"No," said Hawkeye, "I watched there all night, and observed that on average every two hours there would be a single handover, and I would probably be able to estimate it by remembering the faces of those men and counting the people who came up and down the cellar." ”

I nodded thoughtfully.

"At night, the guards occasionally doze off, but the guards are tighter, there are more people, and during the day there are relatively fewer."

I smiled: "It seems that Zhao Wuliu is quite careful." Then I asked, "Then you searched all night, did you find a way to sneak in and save people?" ”

"Yes." "The sentry in the room has a ten-minute gap every two hours, and if you move quickly, you can go into the cellar and get people out the back door," Hawkeye said. ”

"They have guns?"

"No, it's mostly machetes or kitchen knives."

I thought it was a little strange, and asked him suspiciously, "Seven or eight people under the cellar, can't you solve them in ten minutes?" ”

"Yes, it's easy." Hawkeye said in a flat tone.

I glared and said, "In that case, why don't you rescue people by the way?" Come back and report it to us! ”

Hawkeye was silent for a while, then said, "There is only one entrance to the cellar, and there are seven or eight people below. If you want to go down, you can't avoid being discovered—if I want to get them out without making too much noise and luring the others over, I'll have to kill all seven or eight of them. ”

"Then kill it!" I slapped the table and said, "They are all underworld who followed Zhao Wuliu to kill people and set fires, are you still polite to them?" ”

Hawkeye was silent for a moment before saying, "Brother Nan, we are bodyguards, not agents, and we are not killers. ”

"......" I was speechless, and waved my hand helplessly: "Okay, I've worked hard for you, and I'll leave the rest to us." ”

"Yes." Hawkeye said respectfully, turned around and exited the hot pot restaurant, and disappeared again in an instant.

It's really gone without a trace.

Maybe I should know why Xu Shangsong named them Phantoms.

The next step is to make a plan and take action.

We called a car, a huge Toyota Hiace van, which could seat fifteen people. I brought Duan Yupeng, Xiao Wu, as well as Lin Hang and Bad Cai in the same dormitory, and of course Yaoyue, Xing Yu, Lan Ling, Xiao Ning, Ah Guang brought Jin Wenna, and a younger brother who was driving.

A total of 12 people, in a van, came to the old neighborhood yesterday. There were a lot of guys stuffed under the seat, and I also brought two guns, just to ensure that I must rescue Xiao Ning's parents tonight. Of course, unless you have to, it's best not to use a gun unless you have to, because moving a gun in a place like the country where firearms management is strict will cause a lot of trouble.

Halfway through, Lan Ling also answered a phone call in the car, it was Zhao Wuliu calling, and he asked Lan Ling how things were prepared.

Lan Ling glanced at me next to the seat, smiled slightly, and said, "Sixth Master, don't be in such a hurry, right?" ”

Zhao Wuliu raised his eyebrows and said, "Little girl, now that the sun is about to set, shouldn't you change your hexagram again?" ”

"Oh, no." Lan Ling said: "We have already planned, we will do it tonight." ”

Zhao Wuliu's tone on the other end of the phone was obviously excited: "Really? ”

"Where? Do you want me to help? "It's probably that Lan Ling and the two girls are not very worried about doing things.

"No, if you come, if he finds out, won't it make him suspicious?" Lan Ling smiled and said, "Don't worry, we can handle it." ”

After hanging up the phone, Lan Ling breathed a sigh of relief and looked at us.

I nodded at her.

It's still afternoon, the sun hasn't set yet, and this old neighborhood is still quite lively, full of bustling people.

Our vans don't attract attention, and there are so many shops doing business in this neighborhood that you are not used to seeing large vans.

The little brother who was driving in front of him slowly drove around the street and asked, "Brother Guang, is this here?" ”

Ah Guang took the sketch and kept comparing it with the buildings on the block: "This is wrong, this is it." He pointed ahead.

It was an old-fashioned-looking restaurant, the restaurant was quite large, with more than a dozen tables, and at this point in time, there were already customers coming here one after another to eat, some eating meat and some drinking.

There is a long fence behind the restaurant, and there is a courtyard over it, where the kitchen, utility room, latrine, etc., are all there, and one of the rooms is the room connected to the cellar.

The orange sunset is shining on the streets, and there are already street vendors who have set up night markets, and there are more and more people in the night markets.

Ah Guang pulled out the knife from under his seat and said, "Okay, let's do it." Then he wanted to pull the door and get out of the car.

I hurriedly grabbed him: "Wait, the business of the restaurant is too good at this time, and the yard is connected to their kitchen, we will definitely be discovered by them at this time." ”

"What then?"

"Wait." I said, "Wait until it's a little darker." ”

So here we were, from five o'clock in the afternoon, until eight o'clock in the evening.

Xing Yu leaned against the car window, quietly observing the surrounding scene. Ah Guang kept tapping his thighs with his hands, looking a little impatient. Duan Yupeng and the others were gearing up, their faces were excited, this is the first time I have brought them out to do such a thing, especially Bad Vegetables and Lin Hang. Xiao Ning has been sitting quietly since just now, but she can see that her face is more nervous than anyone else, with her hands on her thighs and tightly clutching the corners of her clothes.

Yao Yue comforted her and said, "Don't worry, Xiao Ning, we will rescue my uncle and aunt." ”

Xiao Ning pursed her lips and nodded: "Hmm!" ”

At this time, I saw Xing Yu's face change, and he said in a suppressed voice: "Look at it!" ”
