The Atomic Humvee galloped towards the Black Canyon. After parking the car in a hidden place, he looked back at the rut marks left along the way, and remembered the pursuers who would arrive soon, he took out a few mines and threw them around, there were all kinds of mines, basically all of them were picked up along the way, and then Andy asked Hull to activate the stealth mode.

The jailers and guards of Black Canyon Prison have been warned by the Hoover Dam, the soldiers standing guard have reached full duty, many automatic turrets and other automatic safety devices have been activated, the gates are tightly locked, the barricades and barricades are piled up in the open space in front of the door, even the power grid on the fence has been activated, and soldiers with sniper rifles are scanning the surroundings on the towering towers.

All prisoners were forced to stop their release and return to their cells, while those who had been sent to re-education through labor were temporarily detained.

The inmates in the prison watched in amazement at how nervous the guards had become, the last time it had been when robots had come out of nowhere to burst into some cells and snatch several prisoners, and the last time it was during the Black Canyon Escape.

That is, something similar is about to happen again? Some of the prisoners made up their minds to hide in the corner, while others began to quietly take out some of their private belongings.

On the other side, three rangers in a military jeep also quickly approached the Black Canyon prison.

"Shall we follow his ruts? Maybe we can stop him before he can infiltrate. The male ranger who drove asked.

Another female Ranger in the back seat agreed.

"Even if we can't stop him, destroying his car first can prevent him from escaping, and we can split up." Han Long sat in the co-pilot and shook his head coldly.

"Waste of time, his car is fast, and now everyone may have been in the Black Canyon prison, what if he set a trap near the car? What if he deliberately parked the car far away and prepared another way out of the car? Didn't he know that the marks left by his car were so eye-catching? There's a big problem with your thinking. Remember, we are rangers, and first of all, we must not be led by the enemy. The two Rangers looked ashamed, and Hanlon shook his head in his heart, the real good men of the Rangers are now gathering in the Mojave Desert to deal with those desert Rangers, and the two people that the Sergeant Major sent to the east at random in order to deal with Colemans are just the kind of 'nothing but a little weakness in his legs', but who called him himself applying to come here to track down the remnants of the enclave?

He had no other options, and he couldn't bring his veteran players over. The crux of the matter is that, in Hanlon's view, so far, it's still just a slightly troublesome little thing.

After all, even if he is the only one in his eyes, it is nothing. He looked ahead, and he was only a little curious about the target of the pursuit, why a once bad murder fugitive, a bounty hunter who wriddled around with mud and garbage all day long, and whose hands were dirty, now dramatically became the most famous wasteland hero of Hoover Dam, and even befriended various dignitaries and celebrities, and was even promoted to sergeant by Joseph Dodge... What kind of person is he and what does he want to do now?

..................... Andy, who was in a state of stealth, walked around the Black Canyon Prison, and found that it was more than a little tighter than in the past, almost airtight, and now everyone was on guard, it was really harder than he imagined to get in.

But... There are always more solutions than problems. I don't know what they think, but Andy can clearly see that the wires from the Hoover Dam to the west are all the way to this side, and a substation is built haphazardly outside the fence, although there are soldiers on duty nearby, but there are only two people.

The equipment and pipelines inside are visibly crude, not comparable to those left over from before the war. Andy narrowed his eyes, and the Candace branch president said that the Eastern Branch of the Followers of the Apocalypse would not support Colemans' plan to expand and strengthen the Black Canyon Prison, so the work here was done by the National Counter-Terrorism Agency itself, and it seemed that the people they were looking for were more ordinary.

As they sneak closer, Andy overhears the two talking.

"Did you step on my shoes yesterday while I was walking in front?"

"What are you talking nonsense?"

"Still pretending! What are you laughing at? Last time you kicked my ass and lied to me that someone else kicked me, and played me like a mole, I'm here to warn you, and there will be a next time..."

"Ouch, scared me to death, ouch, what's wrong? You can say it, you idiot! ”

“....”

"Why, don't you dare to say it? Hahaha! You wait a moment for this to be over, and I'll repeat what you said to everyone and see what their expressions will be. The soldier who was closer to Andy didn't answer, and turned his head to continue to stand guard, but his eyes became terrifying.

He crept over and snatched the key from a soldier's waist while slapping him the back of the head from the side.

The soldier let out a loud cry and glared to the side at another soldier standing not far away. The other party looked back at him in surprise.

"What's your name all of a sudden? Scared the hell out of me! I almost went off, do you know? "In the face of the other party's 'contrivedness', this hot-tempered soldier is not used to him, and the new and old hatreds are counted together, and three steps and two steps on the spot are smashed with the butt of a gun.

In this way, under the premise of receiving the order of the commander to strictly observe the place, the two began to fight each other passionately less than ten minutes after they began to stand guard, and the nosebleeds gushed and their faces were bruised, until a loud noise came from behind them.

The two were dumbfounded on the spot, pushing each other and walking quickly, and then in despair saw that there was an inexplicable explosion in the room, and the equipment pipelines inside were blown up by explosives such as grenades, and the arc was jumping around, and the door was actually open.... The soldier who took the key looked at the key that was randomly discarded on the ground at the door, and touched his waist in disbelief, but sure enough, he didn't touch anything, and as soon as he let go of his fingers, he actually dropped the gun directly on the ground.

.................... Several defenders quickly ran towards the place where the sound came, and saw two soldiers who had lost their souls, and in the face of the reinforcements that arrived, they immediately began to state their grievances: one of them put all the fault on the other person who held the key, claiming that he not only beat his companion inexplicably during the standing guard just now, but also lost the key, causing the vandal to seize the opportunity to carry out the sabotage, most likely an undercover agent who had been bribed; The other insisted that the other party had insulted and provoked him first, and he couldn't bear it before attacking, and then the loss of the key during the fight caused the saboteur to take advantage of the situation, thinking that the other party must have discussed all the processes with the saboteur, so that not only can things go smoothly, but also put all the blame on himself to get rid of his suspicions, which is really ill-intentioned and sinister... As they spoke, the two began to scold and push each other again, and even began to touch the gun.

The other soldiers had no choice but to separate the two immediately and disarm and wait for the commander to fall, but long before they arrived, Andy had already found a weakly defended spot and climbed over the power-off power grid to enter the Black Canyon prison.

One of the daily compulsory lessons for the prisoners is to line up along the track under the supervision of the jailers and sing the NcR national anthem.

Fortunately, he was arrested for a relatively short time, and he only saw this through the window and did not realize it.

Andy shook his head to stop this vision and reminiscence, he had to find the Dodge mayor as soon as possible. Colemans secretly captured the Dodge mayor, and although many of the Hoover Dam officials already knew about it, it was still a shame, and he certainly wouldn't be in an ordinary cell... Ordinary jailers probably don't know the exact location.

When he was in trouble, he saw a guy in a black suit and black sunglasses. The man, armed with a 10mm pistol with a silencer, was explaining something to several jailers before slowly walking back inside.

Andy immediately followed, stumbling into a room in the depths, and then spoke to two men dressed in the same clothes standing in the doorway.

The style of these agents is incompatible with the Black Canyon Prison, so in that room... One of the two agents standing in the doorway was talking to the guy who looked like an operator, while the other was serious, holding a silenced pistol in one hand and a headset on his ear with the other.

"Team Leader." He interrupted the two men who were talking.

"There was a situation reported at the door, the power grid was cut off." The bald agent, known as the team leader, immediately looked nervous.

"It's coming, it must be him, tighten your guard, so that not a single insect can get in!" As he spoke, there was a knock at the door of the house.

"I need to go out to the bathroom." The bald head of the secret service team immediately twitched the corners of his mouth.

"There's a situation outside, can't you hold it? Also, isn't there a toilet in the house? A helpless voice came from the door.

"Joseph Dodge and blocked the toilet yesterday, and I told you to get a toilet to come in, and the result? Have you forgotten? The bald team leader was a little crying and laughing.

"I said that I was very nervous outside, where to get you a toilet toilet? You can deal with it. The voice in the door immediately protested.

"If you change it, will you try? Damn, I really don't know if he has a problem with his intestines, now the toilet can't be entered by anyone except himself, the whole room is a smell, hurry up and open the door for me! The bald team leader gestured helplessly, the door was opened, and a middle-aged agent with his nose covered walked out with an uncomfortable face.

"Damn, I changed you to go in for interrogation today, so that you can forget my words, you can enjoy it today." The bald team leader also smelled the smell of the room and almost dried up.

"No, let's change his room... This fat man..."It was at this moment that the door opened, and Andy took the opportunity to slip in.

Mayor Dodge, pale and even a little emaciated, sat alone behind a desk, the room was pitch black, and only a bright light was shining at his face, which made him barely open his eyes.

Judging by the dark circles under his eyes and the bloodshot in his eyes, he probably didn't get a good night's sleep since he was locked in, probably because the agent went out to the toilet just now, and he was handcuffed to a chair.

A terrible smell came from the toilet. Andy found a chair, broke the metal leg with his bare hands, and stuck it in the doorknob.

He lifted the invisibility and turned the lights to wake Mayor Dodger. Mayor Dodge opened his eyes with difficulty, but saw Andy, and opened his mouth wide in surprise.

"Andy? How did you get in here? ... Forget it, don't worry, I asked a superfluous question. Andy nodded, but couldn't help but walk over and close the toilet door tightly.

"I'm here to save you, Mayor Dodger." He walked over and pulled the armrest of the chair off, and the Dodge Mayor was freed without using his lockpicking skills.

"Thank you... But what's the point of me leaving? "Mayor Dodge is still devastated and devastated.

"The City Council has been controlled by McClavdie, and the fact that I secretly excavated concrete building materials east of the Hoover Dam in exchange for funds has also been shaken out, and even if I leave here, I will no longer get any support, and I no longer deserve the title of mayor... But I wasn't reconciled, I wasn't willing to just make that Colemans bastard happy, so I refused to sign the confession. Andy walked over and pulled him up from his chair.

"It's not time to despair yet... I actually wanted to come in and ask you for a favor... I need to use the railroad to the Great Dome and Dog City in the northeast to transport some people and materials, as soon as possible. Then he talked about Prester's plan and the current situation, and the more the Dodge mayor listened, the more frightened he became, and finally he almost called out.

"Oh my God! ... This! The agents on duty outside the door immediately sensed that something was wrong, and at the same time, the one who had gone out to the toilet also returned, and several people tried to push the door open, but the door was stuck and could not be pushed open, and then the agents also knew that something was wrong, and immediately began to kick wildly.

"Call somebody here! He's already in! ”

"Hell! How? Magician? The legs of the stool were bent with a hard kick, and the agents saw through the crack in the door that the Dodge Mayor had risen from his chair and appeared to be talking to another tall figure, which irritated them even more.

"Don't try to rob the prison! Acquaintances are immediately captured, and there is no possibility of escape here! ”

"Kneel on the ground with your head in your hands! Otherwise, I'm going to shoot! ”

"Get the cutting tools! Come on! A few people shouted in a mess, and Andy turned around to take a look, and slowly walked over to close the door tightly with one hand, and by the way, twisted the deformed stool legs into twists, and there would be no more gaps.

He walked back to the Dodge mayor and solemnly continued to seek his opinion.

"If this continues, only Prest and Kollezinge will be happy, and Colemans is busy arresting me, and he knows nothing and does not want to know." Mayor Dodge lowered his head and pondered for a moment.

"You've got to leave, Andy, I'm going to help you, and that's helping me and everyone... It's almost impossible to convince Colemans of the status quo, but I know what he wants, so I have a way, and I can't leave either way. Andy looked at Mayor Dodge for a moment, convinced that he meant it.

Buzz——!! The sound of a chainsaw was heard, the door was quickly sliced open, and the agents rushed in and pinned the Dodge mayor to a chair, while the others searched for Andy's tracks, even pinching their noses and carefully searching the foul-smelling toilet.

"What about others?!" The bald team leader angrily questioned the mayor of Daoqi.

"Who?" Mayor Dodge asked with an expressionless rhetorical question, causing the top of his angry head to burst out of the veins.

"Who else? The one who spoke to you, where is he hiding now? Let him come out on his own, or he will be at his own risk! Mayor Dodge chuckled.

"He's not here, you can't find him even if you dig three feet into the ground... I had something to say to Colemans, to tell him that I agreed to give up the position, but I had my terms. Several agents rummaged back and forth, left and right, and did not find half a figure in this narrow room, and finally had to give up, as if he had entered inexplicably, and the person disappeared inexplicably.

Half an hour later, a walkie-talkie was delivered to the Dodge mayor.

"Joseph Dodge, I heard that you have finally relented because your last hope has also been dashed?" Mayor Dodge closed his eyes and sighed in his heart, then spoke firmly to state his meaning.

"I'm not going to sign that broken piece of paper of yours. for you are not worthy to condemn me. Colemans sneered twice and was about to make a sarcastic remark, but the Dodge Mayor continued, which made him unable to interject for a moment.

"But I know I'm guilty, and I've put them at great risk without telling all the citizens of Hoover Dam, and whether they want to forgive me or not, I can't get rid of my guilt. So I'm going to plead guilty, but not to you, I'm going to publicly confess to all the citizens of the entire city of Hoover Dam..."Colemans interrupted him.

"So you're just trying to call a referendum? I'll tell you plainly, don't dream, the kind of channel you wanted to get away with your guilt is gone, and now, the Hoover Dam City Council will only give one answer, and that is to convict you! You're going to get out of Hoover Dam in the ugliest and most pitiful way, I've told you so many times, don't lose your last bit of decency. Mayor Dodge silently listened to the other party's sharp words, and then just continued.

"My position, isn't that what you want, I guess if the two of us continue to stalemate, things will change, and you don't want that, right? You're in such a hurry that you can't even wait for public opinion to finish fermenting, and then use the due process of the city council to get McClofty to launch a motion of no confidence in me to remove me from office. You illegally imprisoned me in Black Canyon Prison, restricted my personal freedom, and denied me food and sleep just to force me to sign a confession... Well, I'll resign as you wish. Colemans was about to say something when he heard Mayor Dodge add something right after.

"But I'm still not going to sign your torn paper." Colemans' face turned red from choking.

"What are you doing Joseph Dodge? If you talk nonsense to me like this, I don't want to continue talking to you, my men will take good care of you in the future, and I promise you will change your mind when the time comes! "Mayor Dodge spoke his mind.

"Tomorrow, I'm going to give a public address to all the citizens of Hoover Dam, and I'm going to admit my mistake and state that I'm going to resign a month after I've done all the work, and that's reassuring, right?" Colemans was silent for a moment, and after a moment he asked.

"What do you want?" Mayor Dodge recalled what Andy had told him before, and he didn't feel that he was about to lose his long-standing position and power in comparison, and he only found it boring in the face of Colemans, who was aggressive and unscrupulous in his desire to seize power.

"This month, you put away all your means, let me be mayor for another month, and in a month, I will leave here and return to New California, and never get involved in politics again." Colemans chuckled.

"Don't worry, even if you want to, you will never be able to step into politics again in the future, besides, what is the difference between one more month and one less month? If you're willing to cooperate right away, I might even be able to get you an NcR coin to go back to New California to enjoy your old age..."Mayor Dodge firmly reiterated his terms.

"I said a month is a month, and I won't stay here for another day after I finish my public speech tomorrow, because going back on my word will only be an insult to myself, and I don't need your dirty NcR coins, and I just go back to my hometown in New California to farm on the farm or go to the ranch to herd cattle. Colemans, I know why you're in a hurry, because Brigadier Oliver has just left and doesn't know when he's going to be back at Hoover Dam, you guys... You and the people behind you, you're afraid that the military will be too strong in the Eastward Movement and the power between you will be out of balance, and then some things will get out of control, right? And I, a person from the time of President Tibbet, became an eyesore. I guess.. Was this the dictate of the new President Peterson? Who will replace me? You? There was no more sound from Colemans' side for a long time.

He only said one word before cutting off communications.

"If you don't keep your promise, I promise you'll never get a chance to go back to New California." Mayor Dodge put down the radio in his hand, sighed, closed his eyes, and opened them again a moment later, his eyes firm.

After more than ten minutes, several agents walked in and used the keys to open the handcuffs on his wrists.

"The director agrees to release you on parole." Mayor Dodge scoffed at the remark and reached out to the restroom.

"In that case, in my capacity as the warden of Black Canyon Prison, I ask your National Anti-Terrorism Agency to immediately repair the toilet that you have broken." The corners of the bald agent leader's mouth twitched.

"That's not me..."

"Shut up!" Mayor Dodge ruthlessly interrupted him.

"Go clean the toilet!" ..................... Andy remained incognito and easily walked out of the cell of Black Canyon Prison and onto the dirt playground, but as he walked, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

A sense of gaze came from not far away. Hull's voice came from the back of his neck.

"Interference detected... The effectiveness of the stealth field is decreasing. Before he could react, a voice came from behind him.

"Hello, Sergeant Andy, I've been waiting for you for a long time." Turning around, three NcR Rangers were standing not far away staring at him, led by a man with a short beard on his chin and a large sequoia wood-held revolver in his hand.

The shadow created by the brim of the Ranger hat above his head obscured his eyes.

"I hope I didn't wait in vain."
