There was a blaze of anger in Zuo Qing's eyes. He suddenly pulled out the straight knife in his hand, pointing the blade at Chen Lao's brow, and the pale blade light reflected on the latter's face.

"No matter what you're trying to do or what you're trying to do, I only know that what you did nearly killed more than 600 recruits and put one of Daxia's top special teams in danger...

What you have done has completely violated the code of the Night's Watch. You are a traitor to Daxia!

Just as you said, I am not Ye Fan, and I will not be as indecisive as him... Even if you are our teacher, I will not hesitate to torture you.

Before that, I hope you can tell me where the Masked Team is?!"

Elder Chen held the teacup in his hand, looked calmly at the blade in front of him, and said calmly, "I said, if you think you can get something out of me, feel free to do so."

Bang--!!

A green blade light burst out from the straight knife in Zuo Qing's hand, and instantly shattered the teacup in Chen Lao's hand. The boiling hot tea mixed with tea leaves flowed down, leaving red marks on the back of Chen Lao's hand.

Despite the surging sword light, Old Chen remained expressionless.

Zuo Qing stared at Old Chen, his chest heaving violently. After a moment, he took a deep breath and put the straight knife back into the sheath.

"Let the interrogation team get ready. I'll take people back right away." Zuo Qing took out his cell phone, gave a few instructions to the person on the other end of the line, and then hung up.

He turned to look at Mr. Chen, who was still sitting quietly in the chair, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"Night Watchman Chen Lu, in the name of the commander-in-chief of the Night Watch of Daxia, I am detaining you for questioning... Come with me."

Old Chen slowly stood up from his chair. He neither resisted nor ran away. He just quietly followed Zuo Qing and walked towards the plane in the distance.

…

Ningchang County.

A passenger plane slowly landed. Lin Qiye and others walked out of the airport and stood at the exit looking around.

"What are we waiting for?" Cao Yuan asked puzzledly.

"Wait for the bus."

"Car?" Cao Yuan hesitated for a moment, then turned to ask Baili Pangpang, "Are you ordering an extended-length Lincoln here again?"

"...No?" Baili Pangpang asked innocently.

"Didn't we say that we should completely put ourselves in the perspective of the Masked Team?" Jiang Er's voice came from the speaker on An Qingyu's waist. "The car we are going to take next should also be the car that the Masked Team took that day, right?"

"That's right."

The red eye on Lin Qiye's forehead emitted a faint glow. After a long time, he gently pulled the brim of his hat to cover his eyes.

"The car is coming."

On the other side of the exit, a bus slowly approached with colorful tourism posters on the body of the bus and stopped in front of the exit.

A woman got off the bus with a megaphone and a bunch of flyers in her hand. She looked around and shouted loudly through the megaphone:

"A three-day tour of nearby attractions! Single tickets are 300 yuan each! Group tickets are 20% off! Come and take a look!"

There was already a huge flow of people and a lot of noise near the exit. Although she tried her best to shout, her voice was still not able to drown out the continuous honking of horns. Baili Pangpang and others looked in the direction where Lin Qiye was looking, with somewhat surprised expressions.

"That day, the Masked Team boarded this car?"

“Yeah.” Lin Qiye lifted his hat slightly, glanced at the bus with his red eyes, and nodded. “When the Masked team got off the plane, they stood where we are. They saw the bus and the shouting woman. Wang Mian walked to the bus, took a flyer, looked at it carefully for a while, and then got on the bus with the Masked team.”

Lin Qiye recounted the past scenes that Hei Tong had seen.

"Are they here to carry out a mission, or are they really here to have fun?" Baili Pangpang asked puzzledly.

"These two things are not contradictory." An Qingyu pushed his glasses and spoke slowly, "From the performance of the [Masked] team on the plane and the fact that they chose to take the tourist bus, it is not difficult to see that the fake Zuo Qing did not give them a very urgent task. He probably just wanted them to pay attention to something while on vacation, or go somewhere on the way..."

"Their destination is most likely on the itinerary of that tour bus, so they chose to go there while on vacation." Lin Qiye followed up An Qingyu's reasoning.

He walked straight to the tour bus and took a flyer from the shouting woman.

"Handsome, take a look at our three-day tour package. It's a good deal. It includes eight attractions and only costs 300 per person. It's OK..."

"Are there other tourists on the bus?" Lin Qiye interrupted the woman directly.

The woman was stunned. "Not yet. We just got here..."

Lin Qiye nodded and turned to look at Baili Pangpang.

Baili Pangpang immediately understood, walked quickly to the woman, took out several thick stacks of banknotes from his pocket and stuffed them into her.

"We want it."

"You want it? What do you want?" The woman looked at the banknotes that she could hardly hold with both hands, and opened her mouth in shock. "So much money? How many people are there in your group? Our small travel agency can only accommodate twelve people at most at a time..."

"We want you, the driver, the car, and the travel agency."

Baili Pangpang grinned.

The woman was stunned.

…

On the tour bus that was moving at full speed, before the woman could recover from the shock of such a large amount of cash, Lin Qiye had already walked up to her with a few photos.

"Have you seen them?"

Lin Qiye placed the photos of the Mask team members on the small table one by one. The woman frowned and thought for a moment, as if she remembered something, and replied:

"Yes, they are the guests who came to our hotel a few days ago. I have a deep impression of them..."

"Why?"

"Because there weren't many group tour customers, and their requests were quite special... At the beginning, they gave each person 400 yuan for the tour, and said that they were used to being free, and if they saw any attractions they liked, they might stay and not get back on the bus. After the scheduled waiting time, there was no need to wait for them, and they could just leave."

Lin Qiye and An Qingyu looked at each other and nodded slightly.

Judging from the woman's description, their previous speculation was correct. Because the [Masked] team had a mission to complete, they could not guarantee that they would return on time after arriving at their destination, so they greeted the tour guide in advance. As for their talk of being used to freedom, it was all a cover.

"And then what? Which tourist spot did they go to and never come back?"
