Volume 1 Section 193 Latent

Under the cover of night, a shrill sound of rubber rubbing against the ground sounded on the road. Under the guidance of the headlights, a huge military heavy truck can be seen to brake suddenly, and the thick tires have rolled out neat black brake marks on the ground, causing a slight vibration.

This is the depot of supplies for the 11th Separate Army near the front line.

The officer on duty with a red armband strode forward, raised his right hand and saluted casually, and asked a formulaic question into the cab with the window open.

"Who are you? Can I help you? ”

The door at the other end was pushed open, and a young man who looked very young, perhaps in his twenties, jumped out of the car. He was dressed in an army captain's uniform, with a confident smile on his face, he was tall, and under the brim of his hat was a handsome face that was extremely seductive to women.

The man glanced at the soldiers patrolling back and forth on the concrete firing position in the distance, first took out his identity documents from his jacket pocket, then opened his briefcase and took out a document for escorting supplies.

The officers on duty took these things in order, and the guards in the towers behind them also twisted their searchlights, illuminating the surroundings.

This is a military-made "Dongfeng" truck, and the officer on duty found the corresponding license plate number in the computer, indicating that the truck belongs to the Machinery and Equipment Department of the 184 Group Army. In the form of the use of vehicles published by the department that night, the words "delivery of supplies to the 11th Independent Force" were clearly indicated.

There were six people connected to the driver, the captain's officer, and the escort on board.

The carriages were filled with military cans and neatly stacked millimeters of ammunition. The officer on duty sent someone to count them one by one, and it turned out that both the quantity and the weight matched the escort documents presented by the young captain.

These are extraordinary times, and the officer on duty as a "worker bee" is a very cautious person. Su Hao, Huang He and others had just launched a search for this area more than ten minutes ago, and of course he would not be careless. What's more, it was already 9:34 p.m., and the choice of this time to transport supplies was itself questionable.

The officer on duty subconsciously felt that there was something wrong with this. He summoned a large number of armed soldiers through electronic communicators as if he were facing a great enemy, and ordered all the machine guns and gun ports on the surrounding guard towers to turn to this side. Soon, as many as 100 soldiers surrounded the truck, under the gaze of the black hole muzzle and a pair of cold and vigilant eyes, the truck driver and the escort soldier were slightly moved, their facial muscles appeared stiff, and the corners of their mouths twitched unconsciously

"Hey, what are you guys all about?"

The young captain was a little annoyed, he took a few steps forward and shouted at the officer on duty: "Is there a mistake? We're here to deliver supplies, we're here to help you. But what do you think of us? See for yourself......"

The officer on duty glanced at him coldly, turned around, waved his hand to several other "worker bees" standing next to him, and ordered in a low voice: "Check carefully again, this is a logistics warehouse, and there must be no problems." ”

In normal times, the degree of inspection would never be so careful. However, all the "worker bees" are looking forward to the "queen bee", and any word from Su Hao will be regarded as the most important order and resolutely executed without discount.

The soldiers inspected it very carefully. They even pried open the crate and found that it contained brand-new millimeter-caliber ammunition and canned braised beef. The factory date on the green wrappers indicates that they have been produced for less than two days, and even the paper smells faintly inky.

The officer on duty connected to the database of the headquarters of the 184th Army, and the detailed identity information of all the escort personnel appeared on the computer screen, both in appearance and rank, which matched the file. The material escort form was issued yesterday afternoon by the logistics office of the group army, and it was stamped with a striking steel seal and the signature of the brigadier general in charge of the logistics department

Everything was flawless, and everything indicated that this was indeed a normal shipment of supplies, and there were no anomalies.

Perhaps, I was nervous......

The officer on duty shook his head self-deprecatingly, and motioned for the guards at the checkpoint to raise the guard bar and let them go. He handed back the military ID card and escort documents to the captain, and apologized in a rather deep tone: "I beg your pardon, we have to take everything seriously. Negligence can lead to danger, and this is never directed at a single person, but by duty. ”

The captain put his ID card in his pocket and shook his head unhappily: "Your inspection is too strict. We didn't have a violation. If the enemy on the other side of the line is another country or a powerful army, of course you should be careful and careful. But now the situation is completely different, they are mutated creatures, how can they disguise themselves as us and sneak into the rear to cause chaos? Please, we're the same kind, we're the same kindβ€”β€”β€”β€”"

The officer on duty paid no heed to the captain's complaints. He looked at the truck with scrutinizing eyes and said thoughtfully, "You didn't come at the right time. It is doubtful that the number of supplies transported by a truck was not very large. ”

"What can I do?"

The captain spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders: "Those damn guys in the logistics department have a plan, and we can only do things according to the rules." You can call the base workshop and ask and you will know that the canned food and ammunition are just new from the factory. I was going to go to the officers' club for a drink, but instead I was sent here... No way, this is the so-called "bureaucracy". If I had the chance to move up the ranks, I would kick the bastards out of the covers and order them to drive trucks around after 12 a.m. to get a taste of being questioned. ”

The truck slowly drove into the warehouse gate.

There doesn't seem to be electricity here, and there's not enough bright light. With the glare of the headlights, the soldiers began to carry the goods in the carriages, which were yarded according to different types.

The officers on duty and the soldiers on guard followed the truck into the warehouse and watched as the cans and ammunition were brought off the truck. Although it has been explained before, the "worker bees" are faintly hostile from beginning to end

The captain did not say anything about this. He counted the goods and quickened his movements against the numbers on the form. Everything looks so normal and reasonable...... Soon, the unemptied truck started its engines again and was ready to leave under the guidance of the soldiers.

At this moment, the warehouse door was quietly closed from the outside. With the sound of "clicking" a few times to pull the electric switch, several high-power spotlights suddenly released an extremely dazzling white light. The light is so intense that people can only squint their eyes, turn sideways, or raise their arms in front of their foreheads, trying to discern the scene from beneath the self-created shadows.

Su Hao walked out of the corner of the warehouse. It was very secluded, with a secret door that connected to the outside. Behind him, there are more than ten heavily armed "worker bees", as well as the Yellow River with a serious expression and never leaving the left and right.

The officer on duty had already led the other soldiers to quickly occupy the commanding heights, surrounding the truck and the captain and others in the middle.

Su Hao has been hiding in the shadows and has not appeared.

He overheard a conversation between the officer on duty and the captain.

Now, he can finally determine that the source of the danger is this truck that has been sent by the headquarters of the 184th Army to escort supplies.

He took steady steps forward, and the unleashed consciousness enveloped the entire warehouse, and there were no dead ends.

Just as Su Hao walked to the side of the truck, the captain, who had just adapted to the light and had recovered some of his vision, also saw his face.

The captain's face was distorted with shock. He raised his right hand tremblingly, shaking his head in disbelief, visibly losing his normal tone.

"You...... Is it you? How did you end up here? ”

As the supreme commander of the independent defense zone, Su Hao will of course set up a few secret small rooms.

He led the captain into the basement next to the warehouse, closed the door, and gestured to the chair leaning against the corner.

"Tell me, why are you here?"

This was the question of the captain a few minutes ago. Now, the same applies to Su Hao's question.

The young captain can be considered an acquaintance.

He's Sibo.

Obviously, neither Su Hao nor Sibo expected to see each other here.

Sibo's face was a little pale, of course, this was not a pathology, but the result of excessive shock and confusion

He stared at Su Hao for nearly half a minute before he exhaled: "I asked this question first." In order, you should answer me first. ”

Su Hao looked at him calmly, pulled another chair, and sat down.

"This is the defense area of the 11th Independent Army, and I am the Supreme Commander of the 11th Independent Army. That's my answer. ”

Saying that, Su Hao added: "Do you want to see my military ID card?" ”

"No need."

Sibo smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Since you say so, it must be true." ”

Su Hao directly filtered this sentence, and constantly glanced at Sibo's gaze as sharp as a knife: "Okay, Young Master Sibo of the Gao Consortium, now it's your turn to answer my questionβ€”β€”β€”β€” why are you here?" You know, this is the front line, there are no women, and there is no red wine. Stop prevaricating me with excuses like running away from home. The last chance encounter in Chengdu can be regarded as a coincidence, and I believe that hot-headed young people have some adventurous impulses. At that time, you were full of blood, and your mind was full of a sense of justice to save the world. You saved a baby, and it was for the sake of me that I brought you back to Base City. ”

"Now you are wearing a captain's uniform, and the epaulettes and military insignia are new. Oh and the resume, which shows that you have served as a squad leader and platoon leader and have more than five years of military experience. Huh, what does that mean? Did I read it wrong? Or are you lying at all? ”

Su Hao's black eyes suddenly lit up, his pupils contracted into a narrow slit, he stared at Sibo sitting opposite him like a wolf, and said slowly: "From now on, every word that comes out of your mouth is true." Otherwise, I will make you regret why you came to this world in this life. ”

Sibo's expression was a little hesitant. He kept shaking each other's hands, and his gaze at Su Hao was extremely complicated.

"I really didn't expect that you were the commander of the 11th Independent Army, and the person they were talking about was actually you. If I had known that this was the case, I wouldn't have made this damn plan. ”

Su Hao's expression gradually became puzzled.

He paid attention to every change in Sibo's face, and the young man's eyes showed struggle and anger, and obvious helplessness.

"You saved my life. I am grateful and never forget the benefits that others have given. ”

When he said these words, Sibo's expression was very contradictory. He stuffed his fingers into his mouth and gnawed his nails hard like a child, looking at Su Hao with some expectation, but with undisguised hostility.

"I've never trusted those people very much. But they are my best and most suitable partner to work with. They told me that the Commander of the Eleventh Independent Force was a fierce, cunning, vicious and extremely tyrannical fellow. You falsified your military exploits, snatched honors from your soldiers that did not belong to you, deducted the quotas of officers and soldiers to cash out at high prices on the black market, and secretly hid silver bone crystals that should have been handed over as trophies...... I haven't studied deeply with you, I've seen it, but I don't know much about it. I'm amazed by how you did in the city of Chengdu, and no matter how you look at it, I can't associate a soldier who has wiped out thousands of mutated creatures with those filthy and evil terms. They won't be on you at all, I know that, I believe. ”

Sibo's face grew paler and paler, and he tugged at his hair and rubbed his hands on his face. These rude movements made him sober, but his voice became hoarse and unspeakable.

"They told me that the commander of the 11th Independent Force is a close confidant of Wang Qinian, the president of the Academy of Sciences, is that true?"

This sentence is more shocking than any previous words. It fell from a high place like a boulder and smashed into the bottomless pool of water at the bottom of Su Hao's heart.

"Who told you?"

Su Hao stared at Sibo and asked expressionlessly, "Also, who are "they"?" ”

Sibo didn't seem to hear his words, and his expression was fierce and stubborn: "Answer me, are you Wang Qinian's cronies?" Is it a lackey of the Academy of Sciences? ”

A faint green tendon burst out on Su Hao's forehead, and he tried his best to control the rising anger in his head, and snorted in a voice that was significantly lower than his usual normal tone.

"Stooges? Is that how you define me? ”

"That's exactly β€”β€”β€”β€”"

As soon as the words came out, Sibo's eyes widened suddenly, and a gaze of extreme disappointment and extreme indignation was released from the depths of his pupils: "I know that this is the case. They didn't lie, only Wang Qinian, a cronie of an old mongrel, could be in an important position at such a young age. Tsk look at yourself, what a beautiful lieutenant colonel uniform, what a majestic momentum. If I'm not mistaken, those soldiers outside should also be directly under the jurisdiction of the Academy of Sciences, right? The last time we met in Chengdu, you were just a lieutenant. And now? Captain, Major, Lieutenant Colonel...... Not only was he promoted three levels in a row, but he was also the supreme commander in command of a unit. The gap in Haha's life is too big, and it is really much better to rely on a powerful master to be a dog than to be a down-to-earth personβ€”β€”β€”β€”"

I don't know what Lu Dao is for, the anger in Su Hao's heart suddenly gradually extinguished.

He stared at the insolent Sibo, sighed and shook his head, slowly regaining his cold and rigid expression.

Although the doubts were not answered, the danger of the black particles was clearly pointed to the young man sitting opposite.

This sounds a bit funnyβ€”β€”β€”β€” Su Hao can sense the energy fluctuations in Sibo's body, and he has a second-order enhanced human aura corresponding to the captain's uniform. With the strength of the "Gao's" consortium, it is undoubtedly difficult to obtain medicine from the military through normal channels, but it is not completely impossible, but he has always kept saying "them......

A second-order enhancer could not pose a threat to Su Hao at all. Su Hao really didn't understand, why did the danger warning emitted by the black particles come from?

Spiro's emotions have always been emotional. After a long while, he calmed down a little, staring at Su Hao with a burning gaze, his expression extremely disappointed.

"Do you know the way? I've always felt like we could be friends. I am so impressed by you, I have never met anyone like you. I was going to look for you in the new Chengdu base city later, so that you can see my new uniform, and it should be a good choice to work together. ”

"But why do you have to have something to do with the damn Academy of Sciences? The people there are liars, devils, monsters, scum...... They use deception to get everything, and they take everything they fancie, and you are on their sideNo, I would rather never meet you, you have completely destroyed my beautiful nostalgia for the most beautiful thing in this world, and I will never trust anyone againβ€”β€”β€”β€”"

"You shut up β€”β€”β€”β€” me"

Suddenly, Su Hao, who had been silent, erupted like a volcano.

He roared in great anger: "I deceived you? What qualifications do you have to say such things? There is no actual intersection between me and you. Yes, we did meet in the abandoned city, and I did save you at that time. But what does that mean? Are we related by blood? What kind of promises have I made to you? Nothing, nothing. You can have a crush on anyone, but you can't use that as a proof to blame the other person. , what are you? Minion? Vile? If you don't like it, you will scold this and that. How old are you? Find out who you are, this is the front line, it's a military garrison area. Whether you are transporting supplies or for some other purpose, as the supreme military commander here, I have the authority to dispose of you. ”

Su Hao's outburst made Sibo swallow back the words that followed.

His face turned pale for a while, and then turned purple, and he shouted unconvinced: "Disposition? What do you want to do with it? ”

Su Hao's expression was calm, he looked at Sibo calmly for a few seconds, and said seriously: "I can shoot you." This is definitely not intimidation, here, at this time, killing a person, there is not much reason at all.
