Chapter 253: Deep into the Base



Wen Sitian thought she was dazzled and blinked hard, but when she saw Fu Niu standing there with a bunch of snacks in her arms and smiling at her, she could no longer suppress the surprise and excitement in her heart. Tears burst out of her eyes and she staggered towards the small figure.

Twenty minutes ago, the brother and sister returned to the space. Originally, Xu Jianguo planned to go directly back to the third courtyard, but at Funiu's strong request, he had to take the girl to the supermarket.

Looking at Funniu's cute frowning face standing in front of the shelf, Xu Jianguo couldn't help but want to laugh. At this moment, the little girl was struggling to choose between calcium milk or Wangzai milk.

After a moment, the little girl seemed to have made up her mind. She held both dairy products in her arms and picked up a bag of fruit candy. After choosing the things, the two of them walked towards the backyard.

Funiu also felt Wen Sitian's mood and wanted to run towards her, but she couldn't bear to give up the snacks in her hand. Finally, she looked at Xu Jianguo and temporarily handed the snacks to her brother for safekeeping. Then she ran towards Wen Sitian with her short legs, shouting as she ran: "Sister-in-law!"

Wen Sitian squatted down and hit her knees hard on the ground because she was too excited, but she didn't feel the pain at all. She hugged Fu Niu who ran over, and then the aunt and sister-in-law burst into tears.

Xiao Hei behind them also ran over, wagging its big tail and circling around the two of them. It didn't rub its head against Xu Jianguo's trouser leg until Xu Jianguo walked to it.

After the two beauties, one big and one small, cried for a while, their emotions gradually calmed down. Wen Sitian wanted to pick up Funiu, but then she found that her knees were a little painful. Xu Jianguo saw it and quickly reached out to help her up. The three of them and the dog walked towards the house.

Back in the bedroom, Wen Sitian sat on the edge of the bed and took off Funniu's clothes. Xu Jianguo put the snacks the little girl bought from the supermarket on the bed, then took out gauze and well water, wet the gauze, rolled up Wen Sitian's trouser legs, and put the gauze on her knees.

After going to bed, Funiu couldn't wait to take out a whole box of calcium milk. Then she asked Wen Sitian to help her insert the straw and drank it happily. Her two big eyes were curved into crescent shapes.

Xu Jianguo sat on the sofa, Xiao Hei lay quietly at his feet, the man and the dog just watched the aunt and sister-in-law whispering quietly.

He didn't interrupt, but the slightly raised corners of his mouth revealed his mood at the moment.

It was almost twelve o'clock in the evening, and Wen Sitian took Funniu to wash up. When the little girl saw the extra-large bathtub in the bathroom, she immediately became playful.

An hour had passed when the two came out of the bathroom. Xu Jianguo looked at the rosy faces of the two beauties, one big and one small, and then at Funiu's wrinkled little hands caused by blisters, and suddenly felt a little amused.

After saying something to Wen Sitian and kissing Funniu on the face, Xu Jianguo left the bedroom and went to the study.

Now is not the time for him to rest easy, after all, the issue of the geological expedition team has not been resolved yet.

Xu Jianguo called Fu Bo and six others and asked them about their interrogation of the fourteen men in black.

After listening to the reports from Fu Bo and others, Xu Jianguo actually learned a lot of useful information.

According to the fourteen men in black, the base in the belly of Peacock Lake is managed by a man code-named Rat. The main function of this base is to carry out weapons research and development and storage.

As for Zishu's appearance, these people had never seen it before, because every time Zishu gave them a task, he would wear a mouse mask. However, judging from his voice, Zishu should be a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties.

As for whether there are superiors above Zishu, the fourteen men in black have no idea. As the lowest level of the base, they have no access to core things at all.

The geological expedition team and the soldiers of those troops were captured because they accidentally entered the underground cave in the Fairy Mountain Canyon and discovered the secret of the base.

However, since Zishu was not at the base recently, all the members of the scientific expedition team were detained in the cells of the base. According to the accounts of fourteen people, a gunfight broke out between the two sides when the scientific expedition team members were being arrested, resulting in more than a dozen soldiers at the Rongcheng base being killed or injured.

When he said this, Fu Bo took out a piece of paper from his pocket. On the paper was the cell map that he had asked those people for.

Xu Jianguo took it, looked at it, and said, "Did they say how many people are in the base now?"

"According to several of them, there are more than 300 permanent members in the base, distributed in various corners of the base." Fu Bo said.

After listening, Xu Jianguo fell into deep thought. After a moment, he raised his wrist to look at his watch. It was almost two o'clock in the morning, a good time to sneak into the base.

Thinking of this, Xu Jianguo stood up from his chair and said, "Find seven sets of clothes for those people, and bring all their weapons and equipment. Come with me to the base to take a look."

In less than twenty minutes, the seven people changed their clothes, and Xu Jianguo brought them to the space portal. Since the last space upgrade, the portal can carry two people at a time, so he took three times to bring the six people into the underground cave of Peacock Lake.

Because it was early in the morning, the Peacock Lake base was unusually quiet. Xu Jianguo and his seven companions walked around in this huge underground fortification without arousing anyone's suspicion. They only occasionally encountered one or two teams of patrolling soldiers, and they all hid safely.

The seven of them walked around the base for more than half an hour before they arrived at the dungeon in the deepest part of the base according to the map drawn by Fu Bo.

They hid in the darkness dozens of meters away from the prison door, carefully observing the guards at the dungeon entrance.

At this time, four men in black armed with guns were standing outside the dungeon gate. Xu Jianguo thought about it, but couldn't think of any good solution, so he decided to take the most direct approach.

He walked out of the darkness with Fu Bo and six other men in a swagger. The guard at the dungeon door did not react excessively when he saw that the newcomers were wearing the same clothes as himself. He just watched the seven people approaching them with cold eyes.

One of them asked in a somewhat cold tone: "Brother, what's the matter?"

However, Xu Jianguo did not answer directly. Instead, he took out a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes from his pocket, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth. Then he said in a vague tone: "It's okay, brother. I'm on patrol. Come over and borrow a light."
