Upon hearing Shen Hu's words, the other party's legs finally gave way.
"Tiger! Please, no! This really has nothing to do with me! I was just ordered to guard the nuclear power plant here!"
"Then tell me! Is Lu Yuan inside? If so, just give me a hint! Don't lie to me! I'll decide whether to release your family based on your behavior!"
Finally, the other person gently removed the visor of the helmet. There was a scar on his eye that ran from his forehead all the way to the corner of his mouth, splitting his face in two, making him look extremely terrifying.
"three!"
Shen Hu whispered.
The other party was still gritting their teeth and deep in thought.
"two!"
Hou Wen's eyes were fixed on Shen Hu.
"Still not going to tell me? One!"
Finally, at the last second, Hou Wen blinked hard.
Standing next to Zhou Tong, Xiao Shan suddenly felt her legs go weak and her heart filled with anxiety.
Is he still alive?
Shen Hu stared intently into the other person's eyes.
Hou Wen shook his head.
"I don't know! He was taken into the lab, but whether he actually..."
Before he could finish speaking, a gunshot rang out.
Then, Hou Wen's eyes showed a hint of confusion and resentment, and a huge bloody hole appeared between his brows.
On top of the machine gun bunker, a man in black leather armor was holding a rifle that was still emitting blue smoke.
"Captain Hou, the secrets here are not to be revealed to outsiders! You're out of the game!"
Then, the man looked around at the soldiers and said, "From now on, I am the captain here! None of these people are allowed in! Understand?"
"Yes, sir!"
"Yes, sir!"
"..."
A chorus of agreement from the side
Xiao Shan's eyes were filled with tears. Hou Wen hadn't even finished speaking when he was beaten to death, and she didn't know whether Lu Yuan was dead or alive, so she was even more anxious.
"Lu Yuan! Lu Yuan! I need to save Lu Yuan!"
Xiao Shan, her eyes brimming with tears, was about to rush in, but was pulled back forcefully by Lu's mother and father.
"Girl, they have guns! We're no match for them, we can't just throw our lives away like this!"
With tears welling in her eyes, Lu's mother desperately tried to stop Xiaoshan.
Lu's father, his eyes blazing with fury, glared at the soldiers in the distance: "Xiaoshan, don't be impulsive. If Lu Yuan were here, he would never let you do this! We have no weapons; we need to think this through carefully!"
The family members standing nearby also began to offer words of comfort, but everyone was filled with anxiety.
Zhou Tong glanced inside every now and then, and suddenly spotted a Mercedes-Benz G-Class in front of the office building in the distance.
"Look! That's Lu Yuan's car! Lu Yuan must be inside!"
Everyone's eyes were filled with resentment as they stared at the well-equipped team members.
Shen Hu sighed, glanced at the sky, and then turned and walked into the crowd.
The convoy blocked the only main road, completely blocking all the entrances and exits of the nuclear power plant.
The two sides began a standoff.
The atmosphere in the convoy instantly became tense. Seeing the fully armed soldiers guarding the outside, everyone quickly started arguing.
One faction argued that they outnumbered the other group many times over, and could overwhelm them even with sheer numbers. Besides, the other group had so many vehicles; they could simply charge in! The plan to rescue Lu Yuan would then be easily accomplished.
However, another faction argued that it was not advisable to take action and that they should think of another way, or put pressure on higher-ups to release Lu Yuan.
As a result, the two factions in the convoy immediately began arguing incessantly, but they argued for a long time without reaching a conclusion. Many people even said that it was not necessary to make such a big sacrifice for Lu Yuan alone.
These people were mainly factory owners from the industrial zone. They only brought people here because of Chen Ling. Now that they see how things have developed, they are all starting to back down. After all, it is really not appropriate to risk their lives for someone they don't know very well.
Then dozens of vehicles drove away from the convoy. Seeing these vehicles leave, many local bosses began to think about how to leave without offending Shen Hu.
At this moment, Shen Hu summoned all his brothers. Of course, the brothers he referred to were the mutants who had run back from the city like him. As for the underlings that Huang Mao had temporarily recruited, he did not call any of them.
Shen Hu, a cigarette dangling from his mouth, glanced at the crowd.
After taking a drag of his cigarette, he said, "If I said I was going to rescue Lu Yuan, what would your attitude be? Don't worry, everyone can speak freely. If you don't want to go, I, Chen Hu, will absolutely not stop you!"
Whispers immediately broke out among the crowd, and soon several people stepped forward.
"Brother Tiger, we...we don't plan to participate in this operation. You know, we all have wives and children..."
Shen Hu waved his hand dismissively: "Alright, that's enough! Anyone who doesn't want to participate, just leave! Let's see how many people are willing to join!"
Then the big guy was the first to step forward and said, "Tiger! Just tell me what to do! I'll do whatever you say!"
Then, many others who were with the big guy also stood up and expressed their willingness to go with Shen Hu to rescue Lu Yuan.
