Wu Lao Er, who was wandering around, noticed the commotion and quickly ran over.
When he saw Nangong Wenyao, his eyes lit up, and he quickly ran to her side, smiling broadly, and said, "Minister Nangong, is there anything I can help you with?"
Nangong Wenyao pointed at Zhang Ping and said softly, "This man has a problem. I suggest we take him away for investigation."
Wu Lao Er quickly smiled and said, "Okay! Don't worry, I've always loved watching crime dramas and have even fantasized about being a famous detective. I'll definitely uncover his secrets!"
Nangong Wenyao smiled and nodded, then turned and left.
Gan Wei looked at Wu Lao Er and her lips twitched.
My uncle is actually quite capable.
That's just his personality; it's so unlikable. He's always acting like he's fawning over his superiors.
That's so embarrassing!
No wonder her maternal grandfather arranged for her to work in the traffic police brigade managing documents.
Somewhat unsure of what to say next, Gan Wei caught up with Nangong Wenyao and left.
As the captain of the discipline team, Wu Lao Er was not polite to Zhang Ping.
Zhang Ping had just offered a few words of explanation when Wu Lao Er smashed his forehead with the butt of his rifle.
Wu Lao Er roared angrily, "What the hell! How dare you say the base is unfair? I'll beat you to death, you believe me!"
Zhang Ping dared not say anything more and could only look at Wu Lao Er with a wronged expression.
Looking around and finding himself to be the highest-ranking official, Wu Lao Er summoned two members of the disciplinary team, pointed at Zhang Ping who was slumped on the ground, and said triumphantly, "Take him to the interrogation room. I'm going to interrogate him properly!"
Then, Wu Lao Er, with his hands behind his back, took the lead and walked towards the main building.
Wu Lao Er's smugness vanished when he saw Jiang Yan Yan riding a large black dog that was half his height.
With a respectful and ingratiating expression, she said with a smile, "Princess Yan Yan, are you walking the dog again?"
Jiang Yanyan nodded and said with a smile, "Uncle Wu, the things you gave me yesterday were really useful. Thank you, Uncle Wu."
Wu Lao Er laughed even more heartily.
However, he didn't take credit. Instead, he glanced at the big black dog under Jiang Yanyan and said with a smile, "Little Black is growing really fast. I bet it won't be long before it's taller than a person!"
Jiang Yanyan touched Xiao Hei's ears and sighed, "After all, Dad said it's an evolving beast, so it's normal for it to grow fast. I just don't know how big it will grow in the end. If it gets too big, I won't be able to ride it anymore."
Xiao Hei thought that Jiang Yanyan touching his right ear meant he should run to the right, so he happily ran to the right.
"Hey! Little Black! I haven't said goodbye to Uncle Wu yet!"
Jiang Yanyan's voice came from not far away.
Wu Lao Er watched the man and dog walk away and laughed like a child.
The chief's goddaughter and the chief's dog.
What a heartwarming scene.
But soon, he stopped smiling and glanced at Zhang Ping.
I saw his eyes darting around.
Wu Lao Er's lips curled into a cold smile.
He looked around nervously, clearly feeling guilty.
You think you can fool an old detective like me?
You're still too green!
Under Wu Lao Er's interrogation, Zhang Ping confessed everything.
The various factions at the Donghu base frequently send their elite troops to gather intelligence from the outside world.
The main purpose was to find weapons and elite labor.
Once they find a weapons depot or a larger settlement, the forces at Donghu Base will send people to seize it.
Meanwhile, the disciplinary team also found the satellite phone buried not far from the base.
As for the interrogation process, no one knows anything about it except for Wu Lao Er and Zhang Ping.
Even the disciplinary team members only knew that when Zhang Ping was brought out, he was trembling all over and had no color in his face.
He seemed to be terrified.
When Wu Lao Er came out, he was all smiles, as if he had made a great contribution.
Wu Lao Er reported the results of the interrogation to Nangong Wenyao separately.
The others, including Wang Xisun and Fatty, had no idea what had happened.
Meanwhile, Jiang Wu's convoy arrived at the mountain valley that Sheng Huaiqiang had mentioned.
Deep in the mountains lies a tranquil lake.
The lake water is green, yet it is like a mirror, reflecting the shadows of the surrounding mountains.
In the desolate post-apocalyptic world, this beautiful scenery is truly breathtaking.
At the edge of the lake, some very strange plants grow.
Judging from their appearance, these plants should be water hyacinths.
However, they are dozens of times larger than ordinary water hyacinths, densely occupying the lake shore.
From time to time, various birds, much larger than normal birds, take flight from these water hyacinths.
Then it plunged into the water.
Seeing such greenery in the wild for the first time, Jiang Wu stood on a mountaintop by the lake and exclaimed, "I thought that outdoor plants had disappeared, but I never expected to see such a view again."
Bai Feiming hadn't been out with Jiang Wu for a long time, and was in a very good mood. She smiled and said, "Life is very tenacious. Whether it's humans, animals, or plants, we can always find our own way to survive in this great catastrophe. There are probably countless creatures struggling to survive beneath this lake."
Jiang Wu recalled the giant loaches he used to catch in the pond and sighed, "I wonder how far the giant beasts in the ocean have evolved now. Blue whales may have grown to hundreds or even thousands of meters long."
Li Zecheng, who was standing next to him, kept staring at the large footprints left on the lake.
At this moment, he couldn't help but say, "Chief, these footprints are deeply embedded in the mud. This giant beast in the lake is incredibly heavy. The crane we brought can only bear 70 tons. If the beast struggles in the water, our crane might not be able to help it."
