Chapter 223 Questioning and Planning
Lan Ximeng walked back and dug out the trap she had buried earlier.
This tool can be used many times, and you may need it again in the future.
After cleaning up the things and putting them away, Lan Ximeng filled the hole back up.
"Let's leave here first. Too much blood will attract wild beasts." Huang Zhishen tied up the unconscious pirate's hands and feet and stuffed a piece of cloth from somewhere into his mouth.
"What should we do with these two broken cars?" Jiang Ge's profession requires the use of a lot of metal, but he doesn't like these broken cars.
"Take back all the useful things on it, and leave the rest where they are." Huang Zhishen directed everyone to dismantle the machine guns on the two abandoned vehicles.
Under Huang Zhishen's arrangement, Lan Ximeng, Li Qiuyue, Zhou Nuo, Jiang Ge and he were in a car, leading the way.
The rest of the people followed behind, always paying attention to the situation of the vehicles in front.
Huang Zhishen and Zhou Nuo stuffed the pirate, who was tied up like a dumpling, into the trunk of the car.
"Why does this car stink so much!" Lan Ximeng smelled an indescribable odor as soon as she got into the car.
She pinched her nose, took out a bottle of air freshener, and sprayed it into the car.
"Okay." After taking the empty bottle, Lan Ximeng climbed into the back seat.
"Who of us is driving?"
"Jiang Ge, right?" Huang Zhishen sat in the passenger seat and took out the map.
After changing the vehicle, they should be able to reach the pirate base tonight, but now they need to find a safe place to rest.
And the people behind him need to be dealt with. It would be even better if we could get some information from him about the situation of their base.
“Let’s drive.”
The two cars moved slowly, leaving only corpses on the ground.
After Lan Ximeng and her group left, a group of wild beasts appeared and dragged the corpses away.
In the wilderness, two cars were speeding on the uneven ground.
Sitting in the back seat, Lan Ximeng fell asleep in a daze, leaning on the shoulder of the person next to her.
When she woke up, it was already 12 o'clock the next morning.
The planet Laka is still pitch black now. In the enclosed space, there are only the breathing sounds of the five of them and the smell of the fragrant air freshener.
"Uh-huh!"
The pirate in the carriage was unconscious for half a day and finally woke up.
The third brother thought he was dead, but he found out that he just fainted.
He felt that he was moving quickly. Although it was pitch black in front of him, there was a glimmer of light coming from the side.
He pressed himself against the light-transmitting area, trying to see clearly what was happening outside.
Before he could see clearly, something poked his eye.
He was in so much pain that tears were streaming down his face. His hands and feet were tied up, so he couldn't even rub the wound.
"What's that sound?" Lan Ximeng heard a rustling sound coming from behind, "Did the person behind wake up?"
"Yes, he's awake." Zhou Nuo took back the pen in his hand and said to Huang Zhishen in the co-pilot seat, "We should find a place to rest."
Huang Zhishen nodded, "It's just ahead."
Two wrecked cars were parked outside in the woods.
Lan Ximeng and her group searched the woods for a while, and after confirming that there were no "Home Sentinels" nearby, they began to take out their rest items.
Huang Zhishen said to Cheng Bai, "Cheng Bai, you don't need to cook today. We are very close to the pirates' territory and we might be discovered if we light a fire."
"Okay." Cheng Bai took the things back regretfully and began to tidy up Bai Yiting's tent.
Lan Ximeng set up her tent and went to help Li Qiuyue.
At the same time, he was silently paying attention to Bai Yiting and the other person.
During the past few days, Bai Yiting was as quiet as if she had been drugged.
It made her suspect that the person who hated her before was not Bai Yiting.
"Li Lu, you and Lan Ximeng, keep an eye outside at all times and speak up in time if anything happens." After Huang Zhishen and Lan Ximeng gave the instructions, they led the pirates into their tent.
Zhou Nuo and Xiao Yan also followed in.
"Are they going to start interrogating the pirate?" Lan Ximeng took out a piece of beef jerky and started chewing it, then passed a piece to Li Lu on the side.
Li Lu took it, opened it and started eating. "It should be. We are very close to our goal now."
A gust of cold wind blew by, and Lan Ximeng shivered with cold.
The beef jerky in my hand no longer smells good.
"It's so cold." Lan Ximeng wrapped herself in the quilt and felt less cold.
"Yes." Li Lu sneezed a few times and took out a quilt to wrap herself tightly.
In Huang Zhishen’s tent.
Zhou Nuo tied the pirate to a chair and shone a light directly on him.
"Tell me. Who are you?"
The pirate didn't say anything, he closed his eyes tightly, his body shaking constantly.
"If he refuses to talk, then beat him." Huang Zhishen took out three chairs, sat in the middle and stared at the silent pirate in front of him.
"Okay, I wasn't addicted to fighting yesterday." Xiao Yan clasped his fists and cracked his knuckles to stretch his muscles.
When the pirate heard the word "fight", he trembled even more violently, especially when he saw a man coming towards him with a ferocious look.
"Wait, wait, I'm telling you, I'll tell you whatever you ask, just spare my life!" The third pirate immediately gave in.
"Then tell me."
An hour later, Xiao Yan carried the person out of the tent and headed deep into the woods under Lan Ximeng's gaze.
Not long after, he came back alone.
"Everyone, gather together!" Huang Zhishen patted each tent hard, signaling everyone to gather in front of his tent.
After everyone arrived, Huang Zhishen reported the intelligence he had collected to everyone one by one: "There are a total of 168 pirates in this group. Counting the 20 we dealt with earlier, there are now more than 140 left. Among them, there are only three pirates with superpowers, but there are hundreds of psychics among them."
As he spoke, he took out a paper map, pointed to an empty space not far away and said, "This is the pirates' base. According to the prisoners we captured, their base is built under the rocks and there is only one entrance."
"The entrance is hidden under a huge rock in this open space. Someone will come here to relieve the guard every two hours. Also, their patrols pass by every half an hour."
"Every time a patrol team comes, they will check the password. If we enter rashly, we will be discovered within half an hour."
"Their base has three exits, but these exits can only lead out from the inside. People from the outside cannot enter. If you want to force your way in through the exits, you have to use explosives, but this method is not feasible either."
"Then what should we do?" Li Lu continued to ask: "We can't get in no matter what."
Huang Zhishen put the map away and said with a smile, "Who said we were going to go in?"
"Hmm? How can we complete the mission if we don't go in?"
"We can force them out!"
Huang Zhishen glanced at Lan Ximeng, "5,000 square meters. If I let you use poison gas, how long will it take to cover the entire area?"
"Do you want to poison to death or knock you out?"
"It's better to poison him. There might be hostages inside."
Lan Ximeng turned on the light brain and began to calculate the time for the gas to circulate. She said, "Half an hour. But I can't guarantee that everyone will faint from the poison."
"fine."
Jiang Ge asked curiously: "Didn't that person just now say whether there were any hostages?"
"No, he said he was only responsible for defense and internal affairs were not his responsibility." Huang Zhishen was just afraid that there would be hostages inside.
Otherwise, you can just place bombs on them and blow them down. There is no need to go through so much trouble.
