Jiang Duanwu and Wang Hanlin followed Xie Wan and went to a secluded place outside the dock.
When they actually saw a Siren helicopter parked in the farmland, they felt a little tingling on their scalps.
When he had to abandon those helicopters, Jiang Duanwu felt so sad that his heart ached.
Later, when they retreated from Phnom Penh and passed by the place where they had landed, Jiang Duanwu insisted on going to see if their "Siren" helicopter was still there.
If it is still there, they can take the plane away.
Sadly, the plane was gone.
"Could it be that someone stole our Siren and flew here?"
After getting on the helicopter, Jiang Duanwu caressed the instrument panel lovingly. He discovered that this was the same one he had flown when he set off from Gangcheng.
What was particularly magical was that not only were the keys still on board, but the fuel tank was also full.
Jiang Duanwu suddenly reacted and asked, "Director, didn't we return the keys to you after we got off the plane?"
Xie Wan's heart skipped a beat. Damn, you little brat, why are you being so careful?
How can you open the door if I don’t put the key back for you?
"Maybe he got another one?" Xie Wan said.
Jiang Duanwu stretched out his hand and said to Xie Wan, "Director, please give me the original one. Maybe there will be no problem with the new one."
Xie Wan wanted to tell him to "get lost". Was he trying to fool her? As long as the key could start the car, what else could go wrong?
Xie Wan pretended to search his pocket, thinking that if he had known, he would not have been so smart as to put the key on the plane.
She fished for a long time, acting out the panic of someone losing their keys, and said with a look of annoyance: "Uh... I lost my keys."
Jiang Duanwu looked as if Xie Wan had been exposed, and he pointed at Xie Wan and laughed: "Director, stop pretending!"
Xie Wan's heart skipped a beat. It was over. The secret was exposed.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Duanwu gave her a thumbs up with a smart look on his face and praised her, "Director, I really didn't expect you to be so versatile that you can even fly an airplane!
This plane must have come here during the retreat from Phnom Penh, right?"
Wang Hanlin was sitting in the back, his voice lacking emotion, he said leisurely: "Jiang Duanwu, fly your plane, why are you so long-winded?
Didn't Brother Xu say that Director Xie could handle any situation?
Just now at the dock, I heard from the embassy staff that she single-handedly released 12,000 political prisoners from the S-21 concentration camp.
A person who overthrew more than a company of guards in a concentration camp, so what's so strange about her being able to fly a plane?
If she wants to keep a low profile, just let her keep a low profile. Why are you exposing her?"
Xie Wan wiped away the non-existent cold sweat, feeling a little guilty.
Fly a plane—she really can’t!
It was because she didn't know how to do it that she deliberately sat in the passenger seat. She wanted Jiang Duanwu to teach her.
Now, how could she have the nerve to ask for advice?
After the plane took off, Jiang Duanwu asked Xie Wan about his destination.
Xie Wan then turned his thoughts back and said, "Let's search for Captain Xu and his men along the way and fly to the Eastern Theater.
Hanlin, please contact the Gangcheng office to see if Chang Kuan has received the signal sent back by Captain Xu.
Duanwu, please be alert along the way. According to intelligence, the Vietnamese army has sent a flight formation this time. If we encounter one, we will be at a disadvantage in a direct air conflict."
Jiang Duanwu checked and exclaimed again, "Director, where did you get the rockets?"
Since the team members had already determined that she was the one who flew the plane, she had no choice but to say shamelessly: "I stole it from Pol Pot's arsenal."
Jiang Duanwu felt that the logic was a bit unreasonable. How could Pol Pot’s arsenal have American rockets suitable for carrier-based aircraft?
But this was not a big problem, and he did not think about it too much.
The plane flew eastward. In order to see the situation below clearly, it kept flying at a low altitude. Jiang Duanwu was particularly nervous. At this altitude, the anti-aircraft guns on the ground might shoot him down.
"Director, this is not a good way to look for them. We have already passed Phnom Penh. If Captain Xu and his men are hiding in the city or in some cave, we won't be able to find them at all."
According to the agreement with Xu Bing, the couple should have arrived in Phnom Penh by now.
Everyone agreed that the area around Phnom Penh was the area that should be focused on.
If there is none nearby, then continue east and enter the war zone to look for it.
Xie Wan also felt that searching this way was a bit like looking for a needle in a haystack.
She asked for advice, "Xu Bing and his team's radio equipment may be lost or damaged, and they are unable to contact us.
What do you think? If we print more leaflets and drop them off wherever there are people, will that be helpful?"
Wang Hanlin thought it was feasible. “With the help of the Russians, radio communications throughout Cambodia are now being disrupted.
Our shortwave has also been interfered with and the signal is not very clear.
Fortunately, we are high in the sky. If we were on the ground, the signal would be much worse.
Director, with this idea, we can use a secret code to re-arrange the place and time for the meeting with Captain Xu.
They are more likely to see it.”
Xie Wan nodded, "First, we will fly high and hide, then fly back to the vicinity of Phnom Penh Airport and find a farmland to land.
You stay with the plane during Duanwu, Hanlin and I will go down.
I saw an abandoned printing factory in Phnom Penh."
That night, Xie Wan and Wang Hanlin sneaked back into Phnom Penh.
Xie Wan brought Wang Hanlin to the abandoned printing factory.
"Do you know how to operate these machines?" Xie Wan asked.
Wang Hanlin began to check the machine and found ink and paper in the warehouse next to it.
