The two of them didn't say anything about Wang Xiaobo's matter, just pretending that it had never happened, thus saving her from having to bring up the embarrassing past again.
Even the fact that Wang Xiaobo and his men were following them in a car was not mentioned by the two men. Wen Yubai had “scanned” it himself.
"Host, Wang Xiaobo still refuses to give up and wants to ask his second aunt to take you back to his home." The system forgot about its previous dead state and popped up to gossip.
Without the system as a spy, Wen Yubai could guess that Wang Xiaobo would probably take advantage of her mother's weakness. But he didn't know that her mother was no longer a weakness for her.
Wen Yubai estimated that the people at Base No. 5 were confident that although they only had fifteen people, they could handle it with all those people, so they were not worried about the rear-end collision.
Adjutant Meng would only occasionally click on the satellite map to take a look, without changing his expression. Major Pei didn't pay much attention to the matter at all.
Wen Yubai saw that Major Pei had sent out a lot of messages.
When they were about fifty or sixty kilometers away from Base No. 7, Major Pei seemed to have received some information. After taking a look at it, he probably forwarded it to Adjutant Meng.
After reading it, Adjutant Meng looked up at Wen Yubai.
"What's wrong?" Wen Yubai asked.
It was obvious in Adjutant Meng's eyes that he had something to say, so Wen Yubai simply asked directly.
Adjutant Meng has some literary temperament and likes to speak in a roundabout way. But he is a soldier after all, so if you ask him directly, he will answer directly.
"The former commander of Base No. 7 died in an accident five days ago. Now a person from the political side is the commander of the base. The current commander's surname is Wang." Adjutant Meng said.
Adjutant Meng's words reveal a lot of information.
As far as Wen Yubai knows, most of the survivors after the apocalypse were rescued by the military, and those numbered sub-bases were established by the military. In addition, given the situation after the apocalypse, it was impossible to guard the bases without sufficient force, so the base chiefs of all official sub-bases were from the military.
Chief Fu was originally a military man and also served as the supreme commander of the Hua Kingdom's military. He decided to let military personnel serve as base chiefs of the sub-bases and political personnel as deputy base chiefs, and there was no opposition.
Unexpectedly, Base No. 7 was an exception among the sub-bases.
However, when Adjutant Meng mentioned the death of the former commander of Base No. 7 in an accident, it was not that Wen Yubai was sensitive, but Adjutant Meng's tone was really meaningful.
"Is there anything strange about the death of the former commander of Base No. 7?" Wen Yubai asked.
Her first reaction was that the former base commander might have been murdered, otherwise why would the person who took over the position be someone from the political field instead of the military?
Just like Base No. 5, if something unexpected happens to Base Commander Fu, several people in the base’s military will become candidates. Although people from the political side can be deputy base commanders, the base commander will never let them be the deputy base commander.
Because they don't have the ability to make the al-Qaeda troops obey them.
As a political figure, the new commander of base No. 7 was able to take over the position by overpowering the military personnel of the base. He must have both the ability and the means.
"The military has investigated and found that the damage was not caused by human power." Adjutant Meng shook his head.
"The former commander of Base No. 7 went out on a mission with a group of more than 30 men. Something happened more than 150 meters away from Base No. 7. No one knows what happened, but they were all killed without even sending out a distress signal. Only skeletons were left of the more than 30 people," said Major Pei.
Wen Yubai looked at Major Pei in great surprise: "Isn't this the same as the people on the bus?"
Major Pei nodded: "I have carefully read the information, and the general details are the same. However, the place where the former base commander and his men died was a village to the north of Base No. 7, more than 200 kilometers away from the bus, and the time of death was also around 3 pm."
"Have you found out what the murderer is?" Wen Yubai felt very bad.
Although she was not naive enough to think that the bus incident was the only incident, the commander of a base died silently without even sending out a distress signal. The murderer was too powerful.
"No, because it was a military operation, satellite detection scanned the area every ten minutes, but no clues were found. Later, people who went there to investigate the scene did not encounter any accidents, but they did not find any useful clues either." Major Pei said.
"It's impossible that this happened only twice. We can ask about it when we get to Base No. 7." Adjutant Meng said.
"So it seems that the man surnamed Wang didn't get to the position by any means." Wen Yubai said.
"It's hard to say. Another candidate for base commander in the military died in the base. He was shot from behind. It was said to be a vendetta. It happened four days ago." Major Pei said.
Well, with this kind of death, everyone can guess it without any evidence.
"Will the base army's people be convinced?" Wen Yubai asked in confusion.
"When the former base commander went out, he took most of the best men in the army with him, and all of them died in that disaster. And Wang's men recruited a lot of people with special abilities. As a result of the increase and decrease of these, the overall strength is a million times stronger than that of the base army. But the most important thing is that his son is already in the middle stage of level two, the only level two person with special abilities in base No. 7." Adjutant Meng said.
Adjutant Meng mentioned the base commander surnamed Wang again and again, and Wen Yubai finally understood. As expected, enemies often meet on narrow roads. She felt that the group at Base No. 7 might be in trouble.
"Brother Meng, the current Base Captain Wang cannot be related to the Wang we met today, right?" Wen Weizhe also understood what Adjutant Meng meant.
"It is said that they are father and son." Adjutant Meng said.
Adjutant Meng didn't beat around the bush when talking to the young man, probably because he was afraid that he wouldn't understand.
The man surnamed Wang turned out to be the son of the base commander, and they went towards his lair.
Looking at his second sister, the young man frowned with some worry.
The three people present could see what the boy was thinking. Before Wen Yubai could open his mouth to comfort him, Major Pei said to him, "Don't worry, it's okay."
The young man relaxed his brows after hearing what Major Pei said. He also knew Major Pei's background.
Wen Yubai patted the boy's head and said, "I am your second sister, but I am a third-level superpower. Who dares to bully me?"
Wen Weizhe said disapprovingly: "Second sister, don't be careless. We have so few people and they have so many people."
As they were talking, they were only a dozen kilometers away from Base No. 7. Unexpectedly, they were attacked by mutant animals at this time.
"This place is so close to Base No. 7. Doesn't Base No. 7 send anyone to clean up the mutant creatures around the base?" Adjutant Meng couldn't help but complain.
Wen Yubai saw that although there were more than 200 mutant animals in this group, their levels were not high. Although the leader was a second-level mutant beast, there were only 100 first-level mutant beasts among them, which was nothing to the people in Base No. 5.
Wen Yubai didn't want Wang Xiaobo to see her, and Major Pei seemed to have the same idea: "Just stay in the car, I can handle it quickly."
