After Xiao Mao finished crying, he suddenly said to Fang Qingdai, "Sister, let's prepare to withdraw the people from the base. I feel like they're about to make a big move."
Fang Qingdai frowned: "What did you notice?"
Xiao Mao calmed himself down and took out a piece of paper from his pocket. Fang Qingdai took it and looked at it, and found that it was Lu Hai's suicide note!
The text contains his apologies to Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu, as well as the reason why he suddenly tricked Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu away and went to seek revenge alone.
Fang Qingdai read the list carefully, her heart tightening slightly: "They released the list themselves?"
Lu Hai obtained a list of experimenters, which included Xiao Die's name. It was similar to the list that Fang Qingdai had painstakingly obtained before.
It's not just Lu Hai; that list has already spread throughout the base!
"The list came from an unknown source, but the organization did not stop its spread. When faced with protests from families of test subjects like Lu Hai, they directly suppressed them without giving any explanation."
"More than a dozen families of victims like Lu Hai have started making trouble in the past few days, all of them..."
Fang Qingdai's brows were furrowed tightly.
No wonder Li Weidong said those things to Xiao Mao, no wonder Lu Hai suddenly erupted.
That organization is no longer going to hide!
The fact that the list could be leaked means that the organization is preparing to bring its actions into the open.
The base is about to descend into chaos.
Fang Qingdai took two deep breaths: "In that case, the team's evacuation cannot proceed as gradually as before; we don't have much time."
Once chaos erupts at the base, a fierce conflict will inevitably break out between the organization and the victims' families, and other members of the public will also begin to take sides.
Fang Qingdai had been somewhat passive before because she didn't dare to expose what that organization was doing.
While the exposure will certainly draw condemnation and resistance from righteous forces, in this world where strength reigns supreme, the more likely candidates will choose to submit, join that organization, and become its accomplices!
Fang Qingdai suspects that the leak of the list was also a deliberate act by that organization, intended to induce the victims' families to break down and act irrationally.
Before things fully erupted, they made an example of someone to scare others, using swift and decisive measures to suppress a group of opponents.
Once the matter is fully exposed, most of the victims' families, who have no chance of reconciliation with them, will have already walked into their trap, and the rest will be shocked by their brutal methods.
Once things escalate, those who do not comply will be ruthlessly suppressed.
Fang Qingdai could not allow her team members to be in danger.
"But he has already noticed the movements of my smuggling team. If we want to withdraw a large number of team members, it will be a bigger operation and difficult to carry out."
Xiao Mao was somewhat annoyed.
Although the list was only leaked two days ago, if he had been more careful and notified Fang Qingdai to start evacuating people immediately, he probably wouldn't have been in such a passive position.
He wanted to see how things developed before reporting back to Fang Qingdai.
"I'm sorry, sister, it was my carelessness." He hung his head dejectedly, his eyes filled with deep self-loathing.
Fang Qingdai sighed.
Xiao Mao was completely fooled by Li Weidong, and his thinking was not as quick as usual. He still harbored illusions about Li Weidong and was unwilling to believe that his father, who was so good to him, would hurt him.
Li Weidong did not harm him, but he was not lenient with his friends either.
Fang Qingdai patted Xiao Mao on the shoulder: "No form of compensation can completely cover up the damage that has already been done. You should think more positively. You have Aunt Min and Aunt Ling, you have me, and you have your teammates. Everyone loves you and cares about you. You don't need Li Weidong's concern."
After saying that, she left Xiao Mao alone to sort out his feelings, while Fang Qingdai returned to the living room and pulled Xuan Liu, Xuan Ba and others aside for an emergency discussion.
"By the way, what's the current situation with the base commander? Why did that organization dare to openly confront us?"
Xuan Liu's face was grim. After hesitating for a long time, he finally lowered his head and said, "The base commander... has a very good relationship with the current Li Weidong, like father and son!"
Xuan Liu looked up at Fang Qingdai, his eyes filled with complex emotions: "I heard Li Weidong call the base commander 'uncle'."
Fang Qingdai: ...
She miscalculated.
The cause of death of the previous base commander, Mao Zedong, is questionable. After Mao Zedong's death, Li Weidong basically seized control of the Mao family's power.
However, he did not make a decisive move to challenge for the position of base commander. It was not that the power left by the Mao family was not enough to fight for, but rather that he voluntarily stepped down and handed over the position to the current base commander.
Given this, the current base chief and Li Weidong are now in the same interest group, and the base chief may even have played a significant role in Li Weidong's success in taking over the Mao family.
No wonder the base commander knew Li Weidong's "pseudo-human" technology!
They are one!
Fang Qingdai's eyes flickered slightly as she recalled another piece of information.
After Li Weidong seized power from the Mao family, he relinquished his position to Li Weixi while still enjoying personal freedom, and then left for seventeen years.
What has he been doing for the past seventeen years?
Given that the organization started making moves to prepare for a showdown right after he was reinstated this year, does this mean that Li Weidong was actually a high-ranking member of that organization, leading its development, and felt the time was right this year, so he resumed his public identity?
The base chief's previous pretense of not knowing about the organization was most likely just a wait-and-see approach to Li Weidong's actions.
They knew their actions violated human nature, so both the base leader and Li Weidong had a seemingly righteous identity to maintain appearances.
Fang Qingdai didn't want to dwell on who was good and who was bad anymore; anyway, she didn't trust anyone except the people at the Oasis Base.
"Notify all team members to prepare for evacuation."
"The base is in chaos. It's unlikely we'll be able to leave under the pretense of a mission, and it's not safe to leave in batches. Tell all team members to get ready; we'll evacuate tonight!"
The base is going to lay its cards on the table, and she's not hiding anything anymore!
The space took everyone away. So what if the base suspects she's not dead? Her people have all been evacuated. What can the base use to control her now?
It won't be long before we run into each other head-on; it's only a matter of time before we're exposed.
Taking so many people away overnight will let Xuanwu know that her space has been "upgraded," which will also serve as a deterrent to the base.
Fang Qingdai thought for a moment and then contacted Huang Guang's informant in the logistics department.
Since we're going to tear things apart, let's seize the opportunity to rip a piece of flesh off Xuanwu!
Xuan Liu and the others sprang into action, each contacting their teammates and packing their belongings.
Fang Qingdai also contacted Jing Yi to explain the situation and asked him to prepare for the rescue.
After doing all this, Uncle Lu suddenly came looking for him with red eyes.
"Qingdai, Boss Zhang said he has acquired a batch of firearms, a total of three hundred guns and sixty thousand rounds of ammunition. You need to go and pick them up in person."
Fang Qingdai was stunned: "How did Zhang Chengjie get so many firearms?"
Zhang Chengjie's team consists of ordinary people, and they have been severely suppressed by other forces this year. How could he still get so many good things?
