◎Happy 102nd Day: Trust Issues and Moving Supplies◎
Upon hearing this, Captain Yu leaned over to take a look, and said with a mixture of surprise and joy, "Hey, Mr. Shang! Long time no see!"
The middle-aged man who was being held down by Jiang Muyun had cold sweat all over his forehead from the pain, but he remained firm and didn't cry out.
As soon as Captain Yu said this, the middle-aged man's face changed instantly.
"I don't know... What's happening, Captain Yu?" The middle-aged man forced a smile, and the vicious look in his eyes became more and more unconcealed as the pain in his wrist intensified.
Captain Julien sighed: "Look at the way you ask this question. Are you pretending to be ignorant when you know the truth?"
Jiang Muyun looked from Captain Yu to the middle-aged man and confirmed, "Is he really the one in charge of the Western Suburbs Base? The one who died and had his only son murdered?"
The middle-aged man was so shocked by Jiang Muyun's question that he couldn't catch his breath and coughed violently several times.
Captain Yu was in a rather awkward mood.
I guess this guy has been at large for so many years, and this is the first time he has heard someone say to his face that he is "no longer able to do it."
But Meng San came over curiously after hearing this: "No more? What's wrong?"
Jiang Muyun said seriously, "That's the aspect. The things that carry on the family line are no longer effective. Do you understand what I mean?"
They were all adults, and Meng San immediately understood what was going on.
Meng San understood immediately and looked at the middle-aged man with a touch of comfort. "Don't worry, it doesn't matter if your son dies. It doesn't matter if others know that you're not capable. When you're gone, all these things will disappear into thin air."
The middle-aged man's face flushed, and a heavy gasp came out of his throat. His eyes were red as he stared at Jiang Muyun and Meng San.
If Jiang Muyun hadn't still had the knife in his hand stuck on his wrist, this man would have probably jumped up and eaten them alive on the spot.
The short blade in Jiang Muyun's hand moved slightly twice, causing the middle-aged man to gasp again.
Jiang Muyun said: "Now that everything has been confirmed..."
The middle-aged man hurriedly interrupted, "Wait, you don't want to know..."
Jiang Muyun pulled out the short blade embedded in his wrist and stabbed it into the middle-aged man's throat, cutting him off from the next words.
The middle-aged man's face was still full of disbelief before he died.
This person actually killed him so easily?
Wasn't she curious at all about what he wanted to say?
Not only was the middle-aged man in disbelief, even Captain Yu was shocked by Jiang Muyun's decisiveness: "Aren't you curious about what he said?"
Jiang Muyun drew his short blade and wiped it on the middle-aged man's clothes. He said expressionlessly, "I'm not curious. It's just about where the supplies are hidden. I'm not interested in anything else. And we can search for the supplies ourselves."
Captain Yu choked.
That's the truth, but the other party's words were interrupted here. He really won't be able to sleep at night if he can't hear the second half of the sentence!
Is there really anyone who can resist listening to the second half of this sentence?
Jiang Muyun and Chu Buwen proved with facts that it was true.
While Captain Yu was still wondering what the second half of the sentence of the person in charge of the Western Suburbs Base meant, Jiang Muyun and Chu Buwen had already started to collect the guns and ammunition from the corpses, and at the same time check whether there were any breathing creatures left behind.
Captain Yu couldn't hold it in for a long time, and asked in a twisted voice, "Then... why don't you listen to him finish his words? What if there are some other shocking secrets?"
Jiang Muyun asked: "For example?"
Captain Yu thought for a long time but couldn't come up with any earth-shattering secrets. However, he refused to give up: "For example, for example... a secret that is beyond our expectations and imagination is called an earth-shattering secret!"
Jiang Muyun looked at Captain Yu with a puzzled look in his eyes: "Then is there anything you urgently want to know?"
Captain Yu: "I want to know what the second half of his sentence means, does it count?"
Jiang Muyun smiled and asked, "What do you think?"
Captain Yu: "That's gone."
Jiang Muyun looked at him kindly, "That's enough. This kind of person has a lot of tricks up his sleeve. If you let him finish his words, you might think we shouldn't kill him now."
Captain Yu was a little melancholy: "We are all professionally trained, so this shouldn't be possible, right?"
"Did you do this when you were on a mission before?" Jiang Muyun sneered. "He's been doing evil for so many years, he's an expert at this. Do you really have to take this risk? What if he says something that you think is valuable and worth letting him go for now?"
"What if he can find a way to escape?"
As Jiang Muyun spoke, he pulled out a dark grenade from behind the middle-aged man's waist and waved it in front of Captain Yu. "What if he has a backup plan, waiting for us to hesitate for a moment, and then drag us down with him?"
Captain Yulian sighed. "Well, that's fine. I just saw that no one from above was in charge, and all the prohibitions were no longer binding, so I decided to commit suicide to satisfy my curiosity."
Jiang Muyun asked him to get out of the way: "You're amazing, you've postponed your rebellious phase until now."
They checked everyone one by one. The people who were standing at the door were all dead, but there were more than just them in the cave.
There were five or six ordinary survivors shivering in the corner.
Captain Yu, with a look of loss on his face, was sent to comfort the ordinary survivors, while Meng San took off his weapons and went outside to send a message with gunshots, informing other teams that they did not need to go up the mountain.
By the way, he asked Xiao Zhou to go down the mountain to the gathering place they had agreed on earlier, and take everyone to wait for them at the foot of the mountain to clear the way, and then go up the mountain to carry the supplies.
The other few people guarded the intersections on both sides of the cave, and cleared out the guards who were attracted by the gunshots one by one.
This time they don't have to worry about alerting the enemy. It would be best if they could get rid of the person quietly. If it is not convenient to use a knife, it is not a big deal to use a gun directly.
I didn't dare to fire my gun before because I was afraid of alerting the leader. Now that the leader is gone anyway, it doesn't matter if the others realize something is wrong and want to run away.
When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter. It is hard to say whether the remaining people can escape the revenge of the survivors in the mountains in the western suburbs who have suffered from the exploitation of the base.
Even if they escaped from the mountains in the western suburbs, they might not be able to survive the subsequent sandstorms and droughts.
Not to mention seeking revenge on the other two major bases.
At this moment, the wind and sand outside are getting stronger, and the visibility is less than five meters.
Under the cover of yellow sand, the sound of branches and leaves colliding with each other in the wind, mixed with the sharp whimpering sound of the wind blowing through narrow places, brought out a sense of panic and terror.
After Captain Yu learned about the situation of the survivors, he came out of the cave and was about to find Jiang Muyun and Meng San to discuss the arrangements for the survivors when he discovered that something was wrong outside.
Captain Yu wiped his goggles and fumbled for a while before he found Jiang Muyun.
At this moment, there were several corpses lying in front of Jiang Muyun. Jiang Muyun and Chu Buwen were squatting beside the corpses, feeling the pulse of each one to confirm whether they were alive or dead.
Captain Yu squatted down beside Jiang Muyun and helped her take the pulses of the remaining two people. As he did so, he asked, "Sister, are you sure you can really move right now? How about we wait a few days until the sandstorm passes?"
"With the mutant dog leading the way, finding the way shouldn't be a problem. The visibility isn't so bad that someone would fall flat on their face." Jiang Muyun stood up and clapped his hands. "This wind has been blowing for at least half a year. The possibility of it brewing a sandstorm that will only last a few days is negligible."
There were records of sandstorms lasting more than twenty days before the apocalypse. After all the disasters have come to a super-doubled apocalypse, it is almost a daydream to want to survive the sandstorms as normal.
Captain Yu scratched his head, feeling somewhat distressed. "Is it possible? Of course, I'm not doubting you. I just want to say, we should be in a sandstorm by now, right?"
Jiang Muyun sighed slightly.
It is not surprising that Captain Yu has such thoughts.
By pre-apocalyptic standards, the visibility at this moment is so low that it is already a very serious sandstorm.
Of course, people who have not experienced it will think that this level is terrifying enough.
Jiang Muyun didn't explain much, only saying, "Brother, there's no one else here right now. I'm telling you the truth, this sandstorm definitely can't be just this little bit of wind and sand."
"With such a large base there, you must have your own information channels. If you don't believe me, ask those caravans from the north." Jiang Muyun put on a knowing expression. "Although I'm not as well-informed as Captain Yu, I do have my own unconventional ways. I can guarantee that this information has been verified by me from multiple sources and is absolutely reliable."
Jiang Muyun saw that no one else came up. He counted the people they had eliminated along the way and felt that the number was about the same as the number of confidants brought by the other side, so he simply took Captain Yu to the cave.
Jiang Muyun's expression and tone were quite serious at the moment, not joking at all. "If we need to transport the supplies, we must hurry today and tomorrow. If we can't transport all the supplies, we can just leave them alone. If we have to leave people here to guard, it's best to leave them enough food and water for at least two months, just in case."
"Two months?" Even though Captain Yu had been mentally prepared, he was still shocked by the length of time.
Meng San happened to be there too, so Jiang Muyun simply reminded both of them at once. She said seriously, "Two months, at least. Any less than that isn't safe enough. You guys probably don't want to joke with your comrades' lives, do you?"
This time even Meng San was a little shocked and couldn't speak for a long time.
Of course, the two of them would never joke about the lives of their comrades.
What shocked them was not the amount of supplies that needed to be left behind, but the fact that according to Jiang Muyun's estimation, the duration of this sandstorm was too astonishing.
Captain Yu's thoughts were a little confused, but when he thought about the various abnormal weather conditions he had experienced before, he felt that this length of time seemed to be in line with Blue Star's current habits.
Captain Yu raised his wrist and rubbed the dial for a long time before he could see the current time clearly.
It was exactly one o'clock in the afternoon.
Captain Yu frowned, thought for a moment, and then said, "Alright. Let's go clear the traps in the woods now. Once we've cleared the path, send someone up the mountain to sort out the supplies. Also, notify Tang An and the others on standby in the rear to come and move them."
However, when Captain Yu looked up, he found that Jiang Muyun and his companions had already walked two meters away.
Captain Yu took a few quick steps to catch up with them, just in time to hear Meng San's steady voice saying to Jiang Muyun, "Thank you for your hard work. Miss Jiang, please let me know if you need anything. I absolutely trust Miss Jiang in this matter."
Captain Yu silently examined Meng San's flawless and calm expression for a moment.
What's wrong with this person? Is he implying something?
