Inside the last villa, Wu Hao entered a room on the first floor, then pushed aside a book on the bookshelf and gently pulled it out.
With a muffled thud, the bookshelf suddenly split open, revealing a hidden door in the middle.
Wu Hao then went inside. In the dim light, after walking about ten meters, he saw a red wooden door and gently opened it.
Wu Hao knocked gently on the door, and the wooden door opened.
"Boss." The man guarding the door called out to Wu Hao and then stepped aside.
Wu Hao nodded and walked inside.
The room was about 90 square meters, divided in the middle by a steel plate. On the right side were computer equipment and a huge monitor, while the other side was dirty and messy, with blood and even some missing pieces of flesh flowing on the floor.
Fortunately, the other side has ventilation openings and some air conditioning units, so you can't smell much of a odor.
There were only three people in the room, two women and one man, as if Wu Hao used it specifically to monitor others.
"Lina, how's it going? Did you hear anything?" Wu Hao glanced at the room on the left, walked straight to the room on the right, and placed his hand behind a woman with wavy hair sitting inside.
Lina turned her head and glanced at it, then pointed at the screen and said, "Brother Hao."
"Because the villa was newly built, there weren't many surveillance cameras installed. We didn't find anything from the surveillance footage. Their equipment was also in accordance with regulations, including some rifles and pistols. They didn't carry any large firepower equipment."
"Yes, these people are from Iron Wolf. It seems their camp has been moved to Hope Town. It's said that the eight major mercenary groups formed an alliance there and are currently fighting on the front lines. Judging from the situation, they were also sent out ahead of time to carry out a mission."
"Iron Wolf Mercenary Group, boss, I remember they came here before, right?" A short-haired woman in a leather jacket said with a frown.
“Not bad. I came here once last year. Their commander is a tough guy, but unfortunately, I heard he’s already on the front lines.” Wu Hao found a seat and put his legs up on the table in the middle.
Ah, if that's the case, then why did you still attack them, boss? It seems they're on a mission. If you attack them, wouldn't it be easy to get caught? Lina spun her chair around to Wu Hao's side, hugged his arm, and laughed.
Wu Hao smiled contemptuously, a ruthless look appearing on his face: "That guy surnamed Li swindled me so much last time. This time he's gone to the front lines and can't look after them, so I'm definitely going to settle the score with them."
Wu Hao touched his face; the last time, it was that guy surnamed Li who slapped him.
He's determined to get his revenge this time.
Isn't this a task?
I'll make sure you can't complete this mission, and not only that, I'll take you all and exchange you for money.
"Boss, we did manage to pick up some information through the bugging device."
Wu Hao suddenly looked over and said to the woman, "Tell me what you heard. But judging from the situation, the Easterner seems to be the leader of this group. As for the other one, he doesn't seem to be."
Having seen a lot of people, Wu Hao was quite good at judging character. Just by looking at Number Five and Luo Chen that day, he was able to determine who the real leader was.
"That's right. The Easterner's name was something like Xiao. He was the leader. There was also a number five and a Mike. I didn't hear the other names very clearly, but two of the women and a guy named Mu Shanhai were their mission."
"Xiao, that's quite a unique name," Wu Hao said, pursing his lips and squinting his eyes.
"And that's not the key point. They're leaving tomorrow, so we need to find a way to keep them here and buy them time."
The short-haired woman continued, "Boss, their personnel are roughly divided into three guarding the car outside, three guarding the house, and the rest are all inside. However, during the eavesdropping, these people were very cautious. They wouldn't allow anyone to drink water or eat food, and they had to agree to be inspected or use what they brought themselves."
"Hahahaha, caution is the duty of a mercenary. If they weren't this cautious, they would have been dead long ago. But looking at them this way, they are quite capable, even thinking of these things." Wu Hao hugged Lina and smelled her hair, then shouted.
"Boss, what should we do? It won't be easy to keep them here. They'll probably be leaving first thing tomorrow morning. If we try to force them then, our chances of winning aren't very high," Lina said, looking up at Wu Hao from her arms.
Wu Hao released his grip, pondered for a moment, and said to the only man inside, "You little rascal, do you have any ideas?"
The mischievous one was the one who opened the door earlier. She wore large round-framed glasses and had a very slender body. If you didn't look closely, she would look like a girl.
The mischievous boy adjusted his glasses slightly and said, "Just puncture the tires, or tell them there's a war going on in the northern border region, it's very dangerous, and it will take some time."
Wu Hao did not express his opinion, so this method was obviously not going to work.
"Look, what are these people doing?" the mischievous boy suddenly said, pointing at the screen.
Wu Hao and the others looked up and saw several bridge vehicles, followed by several large mercenary vehicles.
The surveillance camera covered the fork in the road leading to northern Xinjiang, so Wu Hao and his group could see everything clearly.
At this moment, a woman got off the first car, looked at the fork in the road, went back into the car, said a few words to the people inside, and then got back in and drove away.
"Who are these people? How did they end up here?" Lina was very curious, as she hadn't expected this situation at all.
"This is a large mercenary group. These people don't look like they're from around here. Are they from outside? But why are they parking here?"
"Could they be looking for someone, or have gone to the wrong place?" the short-haired woman suddenly said.
Wu Hao shook his head. Although he had never been in contact with large mercenary groups, he knew how powerful they were.
It's unlikely that she would suddenly stop here. Although the surveillance footage is a bit blurry, the woman seems to be looking for something with a specific goal in mind.
"Could it be?" Wu Hao suddenly thought of Luo Chen and the others.
Could it be that this group of people is searching for them?
Suddenly, a piece of information popped into Wu Hao's mind. Just a few days ago, he learned from a passerby that a gunfight had taken place at the rest stop on the flat ground ahead, and that the gunfight was quite large.
Thinking about Luo Chen and the others again, Wu Hao found it hard not to equate them with each other.
"Could they have started this? Yes, it looks like someone was injured." Wu Hao recalled Luo Chen and his group, some of whom appeared to have been in a fight.
However, since this kind of thing was so common, Wu Hao didn't think much of it.
But looking at it now, it seems there is some connection?
