Seeing that the squad leader still wanted to launch an attack, Tong Ze quickly spoke up: "Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, everything is fine. Now we should work together to deal with this mine issue. We all know that everything is allocated by the state now. There are private mines here, so there must be many people involved. We need to contact everyone we can. Squad leader, you should call the commander right away, otherwise Xiao Tuan and the others may be in danger."
They'll be fine. Superhumans can't beat the squad leader, and ordinary people can't beat them. If they can't win, they can run away. Commander Zhu will protect them, and they'll ultimately be safe.
Those who were able to mine the mine must have been people of high status, possibly even from the entire county. The higher-ups must have known something about it. Their raid on this place has affected the interests of too many people, and it's questionable whether the local troops can withstand the pressure.
Xiao Huai said coldly, "I don't believe they can do whatever they want on our own country's soil."
Mineral resources must have an outlet, but their country has very strict mineral control. It's impossible for them to suddenly appear. They can only be mined and then transported out. This process is definitely very extensive, and no one can escape it.
Zhu Fanfan stopped asking questions: "Can we leave now that the handover is complete? We still have other tasks to complete."
Xiao Huai refused: "You still need to come with us to the army base to see our division commander. We need your help."
Zhu Fanfan countered, "Do you need my help?"
Xiao Huai said, "Your backer called our division commander's office directly. It was an order from above to fully cooperate with you. Isn't it appropriate for you to go back and explain?"
Zhu Fanfan looked at Tong Ze, who said, "I also called the Dragon Group, and they should be going to hand over the duties as well."
Xiao Huai scoffed, "You still think you're like those secret agents back when you had a pass and claimed to be one! You finished your business and ran off, leaving us to clean up the mess. We've all learned our lesson now."
A special pass convinced them to believe it, and they followed the man to arrest the spy. After arresting him, he disappeared. Only after verification did they discover that there was no such special envoy at all. They were even forced to write self-criticisms for trusting people too easily.
As they were talking, everyone left, leaving behind a number of people to guard the place. A group of people went to the military base, and just as they arrived, the Dragon Group members also arrived, and they met Elder Wu again.
Zhu Fanfan thought it was too much of a coincidence: "Grandpa Wu, why are you leading the team again? You all arrived so quickly."
Elder Wu gave a wry smile: "Elder Li is still angry, so I have to run around here for a few more days until he calms down before I go back. You know our transportation, so it will be faster."
After the handover was completed, Elder Wu led his men away, leaving Zhu Fanfan and the others to hand over the duties to Commander Xu. This time, the questions were more detailed. After the handover, Zhu Fanfan said that she still had a mission to complete, and Commander Xu did not try to stop her and let her go directly.
Xiao Huai said anxiously, "Commander, the Terminator discovered the mine, but there are still many follow-up issues. Are we just going to let her go like this?"
The division commander patted Xiao Huai on the shoulder: "She is from the Zhu family, a direct relative of Chief Zhu. There is absolutely no problem with her identity. The group of people she leads are also very skilled. Nothing will happen to them. If you want to say goodbye, go ahead. Although she doesn't want credit, we still have to report it. She will still be credited first."
The credit cannot be erased. They directly contacted the highest-ranking military officer, and this matter has come to the attention of those above. Soon, someone will come to assist in a thorough investigation, and the entire city is about to begin to stir. The unhealthy practices can now be rectified without any restrictions.
The Terminator's mission is known to almost every unit. He is currently the most popular person to ask for help. Besides, once the Terminator's name is mentioned, he is there to deliver merits. He can complete a groundbreaking mission without losing a single soldier. No one would be crazy enough to want to delay him.
Xiao Huai immediately ran out and met Zhu Fanfan, saying, "Terminator, see you again if fate allows."
Zhu Fanfan felt confused, but still replied, "See you again if fate allows."
Xiao Huai just smiled with relief, turned around and left. He had wanted to say goodbye properly for many years, but unfortunately he didn't see anyone. He had always kept this farewell in his heart. Now that he had said goodbye formally, he felt extremely relaxed, as if a big stone in his heart had finally been lifted off his feet. He had no regrets.
This made Zhu Fanfan think he was out of his mind. He ran out just for one sentence, and then ran away. She didn't know what he was after.
Tong Ze smiled and said, "Squad leader, it must be that your last meeting left him with psychological trauma, and now the wound has healed."
Zhu Fanfan thought men were really strange. They had only met by chance. Tong Ze didn't explain further. Sometimes men and women are just like each other, sensitive and prone to internal conflict.
After arriving at the commune and packing up their belongings, Zhu Fanfan said, "I've searched this place thoroughly but haven't found it. It might be a smokescreen. We don't have much time, so let's move on to the next place. We'll come back after we've searched all the places."
No one objected, and they ran to the train station. They were really afraid of cars. If they weren't unfamiliar with the area, they would have liked to run to their destination. But on the train, they discovered another gang that was trafficking women.
The reason was that the girls wanted to be themselves, so they all changed into dresses and dressed up beautifully. They estimated the time and arrived around noon. They wanted to start the mission immediately and bought sleeper berths so they could get a good rest.
Unexpectedly, an elderly woman with a kind face came into their carriage and asked them to read a letter since they were all educated people. In the spirit of helping others, they read it. The old woman then asked them where the name "Ergou" was, as she wanted to recognize the character. Lan Pan, being quite helpful, pointed it out. The old woman was overjoyed and started talking about her own son, Ergou, saying that he had gone to work in another city with his boss. She then casually asked them their age and names, which immediately aroused her suspicion.
They chatted with the old lady all the way, and when it was time to eat, she said that she had a special connection with them and wanted to treat them to a meal. They declined several times, but they couldn't refuse the old lady. When they went to sleep, the old lady sat next to them. When they asked her to lie down, she refused, saying that she was still strong and could sit still. Actually, what they wanted to say was that the old lady was in the way, but since she didn't bother them, they couldn't do anything to ordinary people.
When they arrived at the next station, the old lady said she had a lot of things and asked them to help carry them. The girls naturally sensed something was wrong, so they played along and helped the old lady carry her things. But as soon as they left the train station, a group of men rushed up and grabbed the four girls. Even though the four girls said they had nothing to do with the old lady, they were still surrounded.
