Kong Wu, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly woke up and looked at Zhang Ruijie with vigilant eyes:
"Brother Jie, did you hear any sound just now?"
Ye Qing also opened his eyes, "It sounds like the sound of a starting gun." After saying that, he stood up and strode out of the house.
After the flare is launched into the air, it will be slowly pulled down by a parachute.
When he walked over, the light of the flare had dimmed, but a faint light could still be seen.
"It's a flare." After saying that, he turned around and looked at Zhang Ruijie with an inquiring look, "What do you mean by launching a flare in the middle of the night?"
The flare can be transmitted up to about 33 kilometers. According to the distance between the Yao Ben base and the observatory, it should be beyond the distance.
Of course, it is also possible that he is not transmitting to the Yao Ben base.
However, if there is a relay point in the middle, then there is no problem with signal transmission.
Zhang Ruijie cursed secretly, then changed his expression and said with a smile:
"It was an agreement with the base before. After 12:00 at night, if everything is safe and you are found, a flare will be sent as a response."
Ye Qing glanced at him coldly, "Then why didn't you tell the doctor or Brother Song?"
"Well, it's all my fault. I forgot." Zhang Ruijie touched his nose with a guilty conscience.
"Oh, really?" Ye Qing didn't completely expose him.
"Of course, of course." Zhang Ruijie smiled awkwardly, got two cups of hot water, and handed them to the two.
Ye Qing reached out to take it, and didn't continue the topic. He just said:
"It's our turn to be on duty now, you go to bed."
Zhang Ruijie glanced outside the house, "Okay. I'll wait for Xiao He."
Not long after, He Tianyu came back with white air.
Seeing Ye Qing and Kong Wu awake with their eyes wide open, his pupils shrank and he almost missed a step, "Why did you two wake up?"
Kong Wu sneered, "Thanks to you."
He Tianyu looked at Zhang Ruijie with anger on his face, and then looked at Ye Qing with cold eyes, and was stunned, "?"
"Okay, is the water ready?" Zhang Ruijie broke the awkward atmosphere.
He Tianyu complained, "Well, I almost froze to death."
"Let's go, let Brother Ye and Brother Kong guard the back, we'll go downstairs to rest." After Zhang Ruijie finished speaking, he pulled He Tianyu downstairs.
When they reached the corner, he slapped him on the head, "Didn't I tell you to stay away?"
He Tianyu said aggrievedly, "Brother Jie, I've walked far enough. It's dark and the snow is deep outside. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back.
Who would have thought that they could still hear me after walking so far?!"
Zhang Ruijie snorted coldly, "Have you forgotten that Ye Qing is an evolved human, his hearing and vision are superior to ordinary people."
He Tianyu also changed his gentleness during the day, and said fiercely:
"If you ask me, Song Haitao and the others are down there, we can just make a bomb and drop it, won't everything be solved?"
"You are stupid. Those old guys, Jiang Yan, and Mo Shiyao are all big fish. You killed them and took their bodies to report?"
He Tianyu clenched his fists, "Then capture them alive."
Zhang Ruijie almost cried because of him, "There are so few of us, we are fighting against each other with eggs, can you win?"
After Mo Shuaifeng and Mo Zhongcheng defected, some of their subordinates who stayed in Yaoben Base escaped from the base more or less during this period.
Of course, most of them obeyed the country and the officials, and would not change because of the changes above, and they still stayed in the original place.
And Zhang Ruijie was one of the core personnel who defected from the base.
It was also because there were few people who defected from Yaoben Base, and he only had one He Tianyu and one Xiqin.
Otherwise, he would not want such a fool anyway.
"Now, we can only wait for reinforcements. Hopefully, they can arrive before we set out tomorrow."
The two of them whispered a few more words, and then they quietly walked downstairs in the dark.
Upstairs, when Zhang Ruijie and He Tianyu's footsteps had stopped making any sound, Kong Wu stood up and checked at the stairs, then returned to sit next to Ye Qing, and asked in confusion, "Ye Qing, aren't we going to tell Captain Song about this?"
"Not yet."
"But they've made it clear now, right?"
"Not really."
Kong Wu still paced back and forth with a worried look on his face.
Ye Qing reached out and patted his shoulder, comforting him, "Don't worry, Kong Wu, Brother Song and the others are well prepared."
Kong Wu was a little confused.
Ye Qing analyzed:
"It is obvious that what Zhang Ruijie said about sending a team to search for Dr. Song and us is true."
"It's just that once they find us, how to bring us back is a problem."
"So they will definitely contact reinforcements."
"The observatory is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are bunkers. Instead of meeting the enemy halfway, it is better to let the enemy come to us in person. Maybe, we can use their strength to defeat them."
"Besides, the probability of the other party fighting us directly is very small. It is more likely that they will integrate into us first, and then they will turn against us after controlling Dr. Song and others."
"If I'm not mistaken, Zhao Yougong began to doubt the other party's identity from the moment he met him." Ye Qing said, and got up to get some pine wood and added it to the campfire.
Kong Wu was surprised, "I'm not saying anything bad about Ye Qing. You are obviously younger than me, how can you see things so clearly!"
"Jiang Yan analyzed it for me earlier." Ye Qing smiled.
"Oh my god, it turns out that my sister is the original creator!" Kong Wu sighed, and his mind finally turned around, "So, are we playing the long game to catch the big fish?"
"Almost. But it's not too long, just one night." Ye Qing said, and took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket and handed it to him, "To add, when the sun comes up, maybe we will have a tough battle to fight."
Kong Wu was shocked for a second, "Isn't this the chocolate that Sister Yan gave me before? How come you still have it?"
Ye Qing touched his nose, "I saved it and didn't eat it."
That was what Jiang Yan gave it to them when they were chatting outside before.
"Okay, you take a nap, I'll watch over you." Ye Qing said, got up and walked to the stairs, concentrating and listening for a while.
Except for a little snoring, there was not much noise.
He walked outside again, took out the telescope and looked around.
As he looked, he actually saw a faint fire not far away.
At this moment, there was a rustling sound of footsteps at the stairs.
Just as Kong Wu was about to close his eyes and pretend to sleep, Song Qian and Jiang Yan appeared at the stairs.
"Brother Song, Sister Yan, how did you get up here?" Kong Wu was only halfway through his words when he saw Qin Lang and Sun Jingtao also coming up.
Further behind him were Song Haitao and Mo Shiyao.
The remaining old men were not seen.
Kong Wu was immediately surprised and happy, "You all came up, and Zhang Ruijie and the others--"
Qin Lang grinned, "They were hit by Sister Yan's powerful anesthetic gun and won't wake up for a while."
Seeing everyone settled down, Song Haitao's eyes became a little sharper:
"Tomorrow morning, we will deliberately delay the departure time. We will talk about it when the enemy reinforcements arrive." (End of this chapter)
