Chapter 648 Eavesdropping on the situation, making a prompt decision!
Under the dark night, hidden in a corner, a man in linen clothes carefully looked at the outside world while waiting patiently.
Suddenly, when he saw a figure in black appearing at the corner of the street, his face suddenly lit up and he quickly turned sideways to meet him.
"Whenever the fox comes out, it's all mine!"
"Nine lives, one for each person!"
"Black Fox, you are finally here. Have you prepared everything? The progress tonight is a lot slower. Move faster. I'm worried that things will change if you delay!"
After the identity check, the man who was waiting seemed to be quite complaining.
But after seeing the cigarette handed over by the latter, his tense face relaxed slightly.
"What are you afraid of? Isn't this good? Don't create a scary atmosphere for me!"
"What am I afraid of? Damn, it's not like you don't know that the mad dog at the guard station is not one of our own. If they catch us doing this, we won't be beaten on the spot?"
Taking a deep puff of the cigarette and pointing to the wind direction of the east gate of the Origin Territory, the man in linen clothes slowly exhaled the smoke, trying to ease his inner uneasiness as much as possible.
"Guard's office? Did they notice us?"
As soon as he heard these three words, the man in black who rushed in was also a little panicked. He lit a cigarette and started smoking fiercely.
"Don't be afraid of 10,000, just be afraid of the worst. You don't even think about how much we have shipped out these days."
"If Sun Bahu, the murderous thing, finds out that we are messing with his territory like this, he won't be able to directly send people to disappear us from the world?"
"There are only a few days left before we retreat. If we are discovered now, we will be the ones taking the blame!"
When this was mentioned, the man in linen clothes became more and more anxious. Even the rare cigarette he usually smoked only two puffs before throwing it to the ground and stamping it out.
"Tonight's guard is not an acquaintance. He should be a temporary transfer requester from the Guard Office to make up for the work. It's not a big problem."
"It's the same as before. I'll lead people up first to attract attention. You come back and be careful, don't let him find anything unusual!"
"Okay, I've done it a dozen times, I know it by heart!"
After taking the last puff, he strangled the remaining half of the cigarette. After looking at each other for a while, the two of them carefully left one after the other.
In this dark origin territory, they believed that no one would find their traces.
But as they left the corner completely.
Where the two people were just standing talking, there was a sudden noise from a square box.
From the outside, this square box is no more than the size of an ordinary shoebox at its largest. When placed in the corner, it looks like a stone without any abnormalities.
It can be emitted with the sound and only lasts for a few seconds.
However, the square box underwent various sudden transformations, and finally turned into a small robot with a sense of science fiction, and continued to chase the two people in the direction they left.
Origin territory.
In a room at Sanyuan Hotel.
"Great! We finally caught them!"
"There is definitely something wrong with this person! It seems that we can find their hiding place tonight!"
Looking at the recorded images and the sounds coming from inside, Feng Long and Guan Yuan cheered.
Using Adventure Mechanic to track the convoy in this night is simply a simple matter.
As early as when the three teams set off together, Feng Long had already skillfully controlled the mechanic to lurk nearby, always paying attention to the team's movements.
There is not much difference from the exception returned on the map.
The Third Exchange team, which was originally headed due east, did not change its route along the way.
But the first and second exchanges, which had circled around at the beginning, directly exposed their intentions after walking a short distance.
They first met at a place and then hurriedly began to exchange materials.
Except for the top layer, almost all the ordinary daily necessities carried by the second exchange were transferred to the first exchange's team.
The "precious" food supplies from the first exchange were all taken down and brought to the second exchange's car.
After such action, it is equivalent to the second exchange team pulling in almost all food and hard currency in the wasteland.
If you don't know their direction and intention, at first glance, this may not be a problem.
But if you know the situation, this redundant approach is worth thinking about.
And subsequent facts proved that the direction and route everyone followed was not wrong.
Before approaching the city gate, the captain of the third exchange was already waiting for the captain of the second exchange at the corner.
Through the eavesdropping device of the Adventure Mechanic, even the two of them did not notice that there was a small square man lying under their feet, completely transmitting the conversation to the ears of the four Somo people.
"It's a bit strange. Listening to what they said, don't these two people know whose hands the goods they transported went to?"
After playing the conversation between the two again, Sumo frowned slightly and realized that things were not simple.
At first, he thought that the two of them had been ordered by the mysterious group of people lurking behind them, the new lord of the Origin Territory, to secretly leave the city without telling everyone and prepare to run away with everything.
But after listening to what these two people said, Sumo was a little confused.
They seem to be really afraid that Sun Bahu, who is pretending to be a lord, will find out?
Is it possible that all my guesses are wrong?
This group of people is just using power for personal gain. Isn't it the imagined mysterious man from the Yan Kingdom who wants to accumulate his own original capital and sacrifice 30,000 people?
"Director, why do I feel that the origin territory is not that complicated? Could it be that we are overthinking it?"
When Sumo raised a possibility, Sumo didn't say anything yet, but the three of them looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
"Let's watch first and see where these people go next!"
Looking at the tracking screen, it was Huang Bing who was on duty today, and Sumo was a little speechless.
Previously, he had imagined that the enemy was a remnant of the Yan Kingdom who was so vicious that he would give up his body and ascend in a mechanical body, so he was extremely cautious.
But after actually taking action, he found that these people were simply terrible amateurs.
There are flaws everywhere in the operation.
There are loopholes everywhere in the plan.
"It seems to be a trick to hide the truth. They want to use these three teams, which are no problem, to lower the guard's vigilance first."
"Then go to the second team, do something, attract the attention of the guards, and take the opportunity to leave the city."
The authorities are confused, but the bystanders are clear.
Witnessing the whole process, even the honest Feng Tianmin could tell at a glance that this slightly frivolous operation was not considered clever.
At the same time, after finishing speaking, he patted his chest again and said:
"Don't worry, Director, I guarantee you that this kind of thing will never happen in our territory."
"Their material withdrawal procedures are complicated. There are loopholes everywhere. Let's call them simple. The guards have to check them one by one. How difficult is it to implement them?"
"I dare say that if we do this before and after, this Huang Bing will never be able to find it."
Watching Huang Bing accept the bribe happily, and after the other three people conducted a perfunctory inspection, the team began to pass.
Feng Tianmin shook his head repeatedly, his disgust almost written on his face.
In the civilized era, when society is stable, eating and taking cards is still understandable.
But in the apocalyptic wasteland, if someone usurps the interests of the territory, they are devouring the flesh and blood of everyone in the territory.
When one is prosperous, both are prosperous; when one is lost, both are harmed.
I can't even understand such a simple reason. It's obvious that I have no sense of belonging to the territory and am just here to hang out.
In this case, it is better to go to the deep sea to develop, why bother to go to the New World to wade in the muddy waters.
However, Feng Tianmin is not young and has already traveled most of his life.
At this time, a large part of his expression of disdain was true disdain, but a small part was to show his loyalty to Somo.
For example, the younger Feng Long was completely unaware of it and was still focused on operating the Adventure Mechanic, lurking near the team, waiting for an opportunity to take advantage of the chaos to leave the city.
As the team began to pour out, the mechanics operated by Feng Long were already eager to try and prepare to leave the city.
Turning around to look around inadvertently, he suddenly saw Huang Bing standing in front of the supplies and was suddenly stunned.
"Damn it, did Huang Bing discover something unusual? This is going to be bad!"
Judging from the current situation, this tracking trip went extremely smoothly.
As long as you follow the team out of the city, you can easily find the opponent's base camp where they hide supplies.
But if Huang Bing notices something unusual and calls a halt, it may even attract the attention of the security department.
Whether tonight's tracking can be successful is a trivial matter, but whether the materials that have been transported can be found later is a big deal!
"Oops, this is expired bread that I exchanged at the exchange during the day. Maybe it wasn't written on the list, so the yellow soldier noticed something unusual."
There were two Adventure Mechanic monitors in front and behind. Although he couldn't see what was happening specifically, when he saw Feng Long looking at a car, Sumo quickly ordered Feng Tianmin to turn his perspective.
As expected, through a gap in the box, one could see the bread that had been traded previously sandwiched in it.
"Quickly, find a chance for me to let the machinist pass by. Tonight's operation can only succeed, not fail!"
"Let me contact Huang Bing directly!"
Seeing the changes on the screen, Sumo made a prompt decision and gave the order.
Material transfer order.
It is not a piece of paper, nor is it a simple order to assemble things.
Its full name is: Bulk Materials Out-of-City Mobilization List Order.
Based on the quantity of goods shipped at one time, the thickness is at least ten pages.
For example, the Second Exchange Team, which had just passed over fifty cars, had a mobilization order that was 14 pages thick, with various items to be mobilized and their quantities densely written on it.
Even though I just scanned the clearance list.
Huang Bing's eyes only glanced at most of the goods, not even stopping for more than half a second.
But he still clearly remembered that he had never seen the word "bread" or any description related to bread on this list.
There is a problem!
There is definitely a big problem here!
When I thought that there might be a large number of goods that were not registered at all, they were released outside the city and walked away.
Huang Bing's face, which had been filled with joy just now, instantly turned pale, and then he broke into cold sweat all over his body.
While shopping at noon, he and Mr. Yang discussed for a long time the hidden dangers caused by currency in the origin territory, as well as the consequences of materials frequently changing hands.
At that time, when it was said that the supplies were quietly transferred, there was a big gap in the end.
Huang Bing also patted his chest and said that with so many people in the city monitoring, not to mention a large amount of supplies being stolen, even a bag of flour could be caught the next day.
If anyone is brave enough to steal supplies.
That is, there are more than 30,000 enemies in the origin territory, and they are the enemies of all the territorial lords. They will be hung in the central square of the territory and whipped!
Moreover, after saying this, Huang Bing himself listed the fate of several people who were caught stealing supplies.
They are all so miserable that it makes people scared after hearing them.
However, drama often happens around us.
After setting this flag, it only takes half a day.
Even Huang Bing himself did not expect that such a horrifying scene would happen under his nose.
Someone is really secretly moving goods in the city!
"Is this the first time? Or more than once?"
If few supplies in the city have been transferred, if this problem is discovered now and reported, there may be some way to remedy it.
But if this is not the first time this has happened, the transferred materials have already accumulated to a terrifying figure.
Then these gaps in the middle are bound to explode suddenly when disaster strikes, work is suspended, everyone stays at home and needs supplies to survive.
And it goes back to the most recent disaster.
Thinking of this, Huang Bing felt that the fragrant cigarette box he had put in his pocket before was now like a hot potato, which only made people feel hairy.
If the man in this car was really allowed to pass, he would have accepted a bribe once he was found out.
The consequences.
"Stop, stop it all!"
Gritting his teeth and ignoring the reactions of his three colleagues, Huang Bing ran to the entire team, opened his mouth and shouted loudly.
At the same time, as he made a gesture to the top of the city gate, the originally fully raised gate was lowered by about thirty centimeters in an instant, causing the team transporting supplies to stop in a hurry.
"What's wrong, Captain Huang, this is..."
Still smiling, Liu Kai, the transportation captain of the second team, walked out and came to Huang Bing in a few steps.
Previously, Huang Bing only felt friendly and kind when he looked like this.
But now, after knowing that the other party was smuggling goods, all he could feel was the chill from his heart.
"Then transfer the order, I"
At the first moment, Huang Bing wanted to express the doubts in his heart and directly ask the other party why the team was transporting goods that were not on the list, and whether he was stealing supplies to enrich himself.
But when he lowered his head and noticed the pistol on the opponent's waist and the masked black-clothed guard standing near the transport team holding a rifle, he was suddenly startled, and he had an idea in his mind, so he quickly changed his words:
"I just saw that the order clearly stated that there were fifty-three cars coming, but I just counted them again and there were only fifty-one cars. The number didn't match up!"
"In this case, according to the rules, I can't let you out. The number of vehicles must be matched."
"Fifty-one cars? The number is wrong. How is this possible?"
I heard that the number of vehicles was just wrong and there was no other problem.
Liu Kai's originally tense face suddenly relaxed. Although the words on his lips were questions, the smile on his face instantly became wild.
With a wave of his hand, he directly ordered his subordinates to get the transfer order again. He took out something secretly from his arms and handed it over:
"Captain Huang, I need you to check carefully this time. It's dark and the road is far away. In case the transportation is delayed."
"I, Liu Kai, cannot bear this responsibility alone!"
Huang Bing couldn't take the threatening words into his head at this time.
Just forcing himself to hold down his trembling hand, his panic had consumed most of his attention.
As he took the transfer order again and touched something familiar underneath, Huang Bing's expression suddenly froze.
Pretending to check the quantity, walk back, go to a dark place, and open it to take a look.
This time, there were still six cigarettes in the box from last time. It was obviously a whole pack. Only the outer cover was removed, and there were twenty full cigarettes inside!
According to the market price, a whole box of cigarettes like this can be sold for about eight kilograms of flour.
Enough food for a normal adult, close to half a month!
Such heavy profits are undoubtedly a "sky-high price" for Huang Bing, who has never received a bribe.
Emotionally, Liu Kai thought that he felt that his filial piety just now was not enough, and he was afraid of offending the captain of the Third Exchange, so he hurriedly came to ask for benefits again.
"It's terrible, it's terrible"
"Sure enough, there is a ghost. What should I do? What should I do?"
High profits bring no joy, only undisguised fear.
As a small second-class resident of the main peak, an inconspicuous low-level person in the origin territory.
While walking among the supply trucks, Huang Bing had even begun to think about how he would run away tomorrow after letting these people go.
After all, although he has a greater sense of belonging to the territory of origin than ordinary refugees, he is not die-hardly loyal to that point.
Knowing that it would be revealed at the scene or discovered afterwards.
When his fate basically only had the word "death", he was left with only two choices.
Either live on your knees or die standing.
"I can survive by kneeling down, but of the 30,000 people in the territory, I'm afraid there won't be many left after this winter."
"I'll die standing up. I, Huang Bing, am only 29. I don't want to die while riding a horse!"
There were fifty cars, and the thirtieth one had been checked. Huang Bing's mind was still filled with the battle between heaven and man.
At a certain moment, he wanted to just ignore everything and run away with his cousin early tomorrow morning.
But the next moment, I thought about how this seemingly prosperous territory would turn into a hell on earth when disaster struck.
He also wished he could slap himself in the mouth and call himself a loser.
In this tangle, I went to the third car from the last.
Huang Bing wanted to run away and report to the guard department.
But out of the corner of his eye, he looked at the man in black holding a gun and his eyes glanced at him from time to time, and he could only curse secretly in his heart.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered the profound meaning revealed in Boss Yang's words during the day.
Emotional people can detect abnormalities even when they don't know anything.
They, the people living inside, are being played around like fools.
"Huang Bing, Huang Bing"
In a state of confusion, when there was only the last car left, Huang Bing's mind went numb, and a slightly familiar voice suddenly sounded around him.
For the first time, I thought I was hearing hallucinations.
Huang Bing didn't pay attention, but suddenly began to fantasize in his mind: "Damn it, if I could be like Boss Yang, with dozens of people under my command, I would still be afraid of these bastards."
But when the second shout came, no matter how stupid he was, he suddenly reacted and looked towards the source of the sound.
