"Wow, that's way too fast! I wasn't even ready yet. I just got a batch of fuel, and you're already taking everyone away? You could at least leave me some! I was planning to get some rest!"
Seeing Yuan Yuan's sullen face, Lu Yuan couldn't help but flick his forehead with his finger, pretending to be angry and scolding him: "Don't you have enough time? You're the most idle person in the whole base right now. Hurry up and stop talking nonsense, get your things ready, I'm about to arrange for people to set off!"
Yuan Yuan sighed, then led Zhou Tong toward his residence. Not long after, Zhou Tong brought several men with him, carrying several barrels of gasoline and various fuels.
After a brief farewell rally, Lu Yuan looked at the enthusiastic crowd and nodded in satisfaction. Then, with a sweeping gesture, he said, "Let's go!"
So everyone boarded the vehicle in a grand procession, taking their own food, water, and other supplies. The second group was the logistics department team, who carried mostly various tools and equipment. Yuan Yuan was also going along, as he had to take on this responsibility as the Minister of Transportation. However, he looked very unwilling, clearly not having had enough of the good life he had with Lu Yuan, and was reluctant to be sent on this business trip.
The convoy left Zone 3 in a grand procession, with vehicles and boats splitting into two groups and heading towards the city.
The first batch of experimental panels made of the new material has been installed. Since the area of Zone 3 is not very large, not much manpower is needed here. After all, it is raining heavily here, and the rain is mixed with a large number of bloodthirsty black beetles. Apart from wearing raincoats every day to prevent these black beetles, Lu Yuan can't think of any other way. Although his chickens have played a significant role in the survivor base, it seems that it is still difficult to promote them.
After a busy night, Lu Yuan returned home at around 3 a.m. Although it was still quite dark and he couldn't tell whether it was morning or night, he felt extremely exhausted. After the panel was installed with everyone's help, Lu Yuan felt as if all his strength had been drained, and all he wanted to do was get a good night's sleep.
Lu Yuan's phone suddenly rang. After taking out his phone and glancing at the name on it, Lu Yuan looked around. The caller was Chen Ke. Chen Ke hadn't appeared before because Lu Yuan had given him a task when he returned: to find the person Xia He had arranged for him.
So Lu Yuan quickly took out his phone and answered the call.
"Brother Lu, I've found the person you asked me to find out!"
Upon hearing his words, Lu Yuan immediately perked up. He looked around and quickly covered the microphone, asking, "Great! Where is he now?"
"It's said to be in Genan City, which is about 200 kilometers away from here!"
"Can you confirm this? If you can, I'll call the higher-ups!"
"Yes, I'm absolutely certain. One of my informants told me this, it's definitely true. He just sent me a short video, I'll send it to you, take a look and confirm if it's him. But after watching it, I think it should be him!"
Lu Yuan received a video from Chen Ke shortly after hanging up the phone. After glancing at the person in the video, he immediately confirmed that it was the person Xia He wanted him to find.
So Lu Yuan called Xia He directly, and the call was answered almost instantly.
"What's up?" Xia He asked listlessly.
"Hmm, have you forgotten who I am? I'm your informant. My men just told me that the person you're looking for has been found. When are you going to go?"
Xia He was silent for a moment, then said, "I can't go here now. How about this, you bring the person back for me, and I'll come to your place to pick them up when I get back!"
Upon hearing the other party's words, Lu Yuan was immediately displeased. What a joke! That person was in Genan City, about two or three hundred kilometers away from here. Besides, it had been raining heavily all the way there. Even if they were to sail there, it would take a very long time. He didn't want to be the one to be taken advantage of and go to arrest someone.
"I'm sorry, I really can't go. That person is in Genan City, and I'm powerless to help them right now!"
"No, it's you. You have to go this time, or else I'll make a move on you again, you believe me!" Xia He threatened Lu Yuan as soon as he heard him refuse.
"What the hell?! Are you crazy?! We're partners, and you said last time that I don't need to bring anyone with me, I just need to provide you with the information, and you can handle it yourself, right?"
You have other people under you now; you can send them directly. There's no need for me, your informant, to be exposed. If I reveal your information later, I won't be able to help you!
"Hehe, you're quite shrewd. But don't worry, it doesn't matter if this person has seen you before, because I'm taking him back. He has extremely important information in his hands!"
Upon hearing the name "several important documents," Lu Yuan paused reflexively for a moment before asking, "What important documents?"
Xia He chuckled and then said softly, "Are you sure you want to know what information?"
Lu Yuan paused for a moment, then quickly declined: "Never mind, I was just asking casually. If you don't want to talk about it, then I won't. By the way, I really can't help with this!"
