Three hours later, in the eastern suburbs of Monterey...
The police car slowly stopped on the side of the road, and Tang Shuxing and the four others got out of the car. The policeman who drove the car turned around and left without even looking at them, and rushed to the place where he was supposed to be on duty.
A Yue turned around and walked towards the hill on one side, telling them that after passing the hill, there was an abandoned mine. There was a relatively safe house in the mine, where they could get organized for a while, and then plan how to cross the border and sneak into the United States.
.
Tang Shuxing and others were surprised that A Yue seemed to be able to "reach the sky" in Mexico? After they left the plane, hid in the hangar, found a faucet to wash their bodies, and put on the clothes of the ground staff there, A Yue actually took them with him.
They swaggered to the terminal, and immediately made a phone call there. Within half an hour, a policeman came to contact them, led them into the police car, passed directly through the checkpoint, and left the city to get here.
"I have a relationship with the Harbor. They are the second largest drug trafficking organization in Monterey.
He was active in Matamoros before 2007, and then began to expand his sphere of influence to Monterey. At that time, Monterey's drug network was controlled by 'Breta', and the two sides began to fight for territory." A Yue walked up the hill and looked into the distance.
We are in a prosperous city, and gunshots can be heard from time to time in the city. "Years ago
, this is a very prosperous city in Mexico, with a population of several million, and the per capita annual income is twice as high as the national average in Mexico. Drugs have completely destroyed this place, do you believe it? The drug dealers here have even more weapons than you have in
The [***] weapons Astaya encountered were even more advanced."
There was a small drug trafficking leader in "Harbor". In order to kill a policeman who had arrested him and caused him to lose hundreds of thousands of dollars, he even found five people to use RPG7 to bomb the policeman and his police car three times.
Not to mention that the car was completely dismantled, and the bodies of the policemen were not even put together later.
"Due to the escalation of killings, the drug dealers here are so rampant. Many police officers have become informants for drug dealers because of their power. They can save their lives and make money at the same time. Why not?" A Yue shook her head and looked down the mountain.
He walked over and said, "You must know that there is no death penalty in Mexico. If you are caught as an accomplice of a drug trafficker, you will go to jail. But if you are targeted by a drug trafficker, you will have a narrow escape."
"A cat cries as a mouse pretends to be compassionate." Ji Kefeng followed, "You are not cooperating with drug dealers."
Ah Yue stopped and didn't look back. She just said coldly: "I never said that I was a good person."
"Hey, Ah Yue, is this place really safe?" Tang Shuxing knew that he would become tense again if he continued to speak, so he immediately interrupted and stepped forward to separate the two of them deliberately with his body. Gu Huaiyi just glanced at him with a meaningful smile.
He frowned at Ji Kefeng's face.
"It can only be said that we can stay temporarily. Although Mexico's intelligence capabilities are not strong, they also have Americans to help them. Even if they are forced to accept help, it is only a matter of time before we are found." A Yue slid down the hillside.
Others immediately followed.
After sliding down the hillside, A Yue just stood up when Ji Kefeng caught up with him again. He wanted to say something, but Tang Shuxing stepped forward to block him and shook his head at him.
"Xing Er, do you know where she came from? What if she was tricked? What if she knew everything that happened on the plane at the beginning?" Ji Kefeng did not lower his voice at all.
Tang Shuxing frowned and said, "Zhan Tianya said he could trust her."
"Zhan Tianya's original words were that A Yue is a multi-faceted spy who believes in 'the highest bidder gets it'!" Ji Kefeng turned his attention to A Yue again.
"You can choose not to believe me. Besides, on the one hand, I want to repay Zhan Tianya's favor, and on the other hand, because the price he offered is very high, too high for me to refuse!" A Yue turned to look at Ji Kefeng, and then
Said, "I'm curious how high it is.
Right? Let's put it this way, just before he offered this price, I would be shot to death at any time as long as I set foot on Chinese territory, but that won't happen in the future, and he also promised that besides being in China, I could also be shot to death.
The blacklists of Eastern European countries were wiped off.”
"Okay!" Ji Kefeng smiled, raised his hands and said, "Pretend I didn't say anything."
Ji Kefeng's worry is correct. Although his worries are mixed with other personal factors, this team has become strange. It's time to contact Ami who is waiting for news at the Gu Hunting Ground, but there is no decent one at hand.
Equipment. Tang Shuxing was thinking about it in his mind and continued to follow Ah Yao.
After going around a hillside in front, and walking into a large depression, you can see a small open-pit mine. All the machines in the mine are abandoned and rusty, and there are many abandoned RVs parked around it.
Some RVs still have mailboxes standing at the door, and there are some weird symbols painted on the mailboxes.
"This is the graffiti of 'Harbor'. They are usually painted in black and green, just like dogs use urine to mark territory." A Yue touched one of the mailboxes, stepped forward and kicked open the door of the RV, and then opened the door of the dilapidated car.
In the RV, the wooden planks of the bed were lifted up to reveal the passage below, and he got in first.
A Yue, who got into the passage, grabbed a burning stick from the box next to her and lit it, then held it up and walked ahead, explaining as she walked: "In fact, nothing can be dug out of this mine. In the early years, it was bribed by 'Bretta'
The mining license obtained by the government was actually for hiding drugs, and they even thought about digging a tunnel to the United States from this location, but that was a wishful thinking, it was too far."
The place was discovered by the police in the second year after the power of 'Harbor' penetrated into Monterey. 'Bretta' knew full well that the information was provided by 'Harbor', so she took revenge after the mine was sealed.
In just one week, 'Bretta' used various methods to assassinate more than 50 leaders and members of the 'Harbour' organization, and then the war between the two sides began to escalate.
"Although this place was sealed, 'Harbor' later forced a group of homeless people to live here. In fact, it was just to build their own hiding place. These passages were re-excavated later, but..." A Yue said
When she got here, she stopped because the cave in front became wider. She turned her head and whispered, "It's best not to be scared."
"What?" Tang Shuxing slowly stepped forward from behind. Ah Yue threw the burning rod in his hand directly into the cave in front. The moment he threw it in, the light of the burning rod illuminated the surroundings. Tang Shuxing
He was so shocked by the scene in front of him that he took several steps back - the entire cave of about 40 square meters was filled with countless corpses, including men, women, old and young.
"This is..." Tang Shuxing turned to look at A Yue.
"Part of them are the homeless people who were forced to live there. The rewards given to them by Harbor were various drugs, but they could not be sold and could only be smoked by themselves. They all died of drug overdose. In the final analysis, Harbor just wanted to kill people and silence them.
It's just that they used a method where they voluntarily died." A Yue said, stepping on the corpse and continuing forward.
He continued walking without squinting, but pointed at some corpses hanging on the cave wall on the right, "Those are the middle-level leaders of the Bretta organization. They were assassinated after the arrest of the big drug lord Gust."
It was done by the harbor. In order to avoid escalating the war with Bretta, they did not dare to hang the corpse in the street like before, so they had to hide it."
"What about this?" Ji Kefeng stood on a corpse that had been cut into several pieces and nailed to the cave wall. "The stench of these corpses is not strong."
A Yue stopped and didn't even turn to look at Ji Kefeng: "That guy is a police informant named Walter Roshar Yank. He used to be Gust's right-hand man. After he was found to have betrayed Gust, he was
Harbor' and 'Bretta' join forces to kill."
"Aren't they opposites?" Tang Shuxing asked strangely, "Why should they cooperate?"
"When Gust was here, they distributed the territory evenly. Although there were some local conflicts, it was much more stable than before. Gust was the god in the hearts of all drug traffickers in Mexico. Everyone would come to him to discuss anything. If there was a conflict,
Find him to solve the problem too. Once Gust dies, the poison will
The dealers thought that their faith had collapsed because of this, so they worked together to retaliate against the people who betrayed Gust." As A Yue said, she lowered her head and walked into a passage below. At the same time, she raised her hand to signal others not to go in, and she even shouted into it.
Said, "Yanke! It's me! I'm coming!"
Yang Ke? Tang Shuxing turned to look at the corpse again. Could it be that he had the same name?
People's laughter came from the depths of the passage. At this time, Ah Yue turned around, pointed at the cut body on the cave wall and said: "Except for one calf, the rest does not belong to Yang Ke. In his
After he was caught and seriously injured, I saved him and used a fake corpse to pretend to be him, but before that, in order to make the drama realistic, I had to chop off his left calf in front of those idiots."
Tang Shuxing stared at A Yue. The tone and expression of A Yue's words were as if she had chopped off a pig's knuckle with a knife.
"Ah Yue——" A long and drawn-out voice came from deep in the passage and continued continuously. Then the source of the voice got closer and closer. Soon, everyone saw a man with a beard, fluffy hair, and a tube on his left calf.
A middle-aged man with a stainless steel pipe and an Uzi submachine gun with a silencer in his hand appeared in the passage.
The middle-aged man's skin was so bad that it made people think that he was like a living zombie. Not to mention a lot of his skin was cracked and cracked, and there were also a few sores that were still oozing. The blue worker's uniform he was wearing was also damaged.
It was covered with dirt, and the most ridiculous thing was that he was actually wearing a woman's floral skirt underneath, and a Converse cloth shoe on his right foot.
After Yang Ke saw Tang Shuxing and others, he subconsciously clenched his gun and asked A Yue in the local language: "Your friend!?"
"That's right, but I'm definitely not from the police. Do you know about the Bangkok robbery?" Ah Yue pointed behind her with her thumb, but said in English, "They were the ones who did it."
"Really so young!?" Yangke laughed, "But it's a little different from what it looks like on the wanted poster." After saying that, Yangke asked again in broken Chinese, "Hello, have you eaten? I have.
Yes, I like rice very much!”
Tang Shuxing and Gu Huaiyi looked at each other, and then Ah Yue shook her head and said with a smile: "Yangke, you better speak English. I don't believe that you can speak very fluently if I only teach you Chinese for a week."
After saying that, A Yue waved for them to follow Yan Ke into the passage, and at the same time made another introduction: "I forgot to tell you, Yan Ke's previous nickname was 'Blood Fox Duke', a Ukrainian, and the earliest hacker in Ukraine.
"
Hacker? Or Ukrainian? Tang Shuxing stared at the limping Yankee in front of him. He really couldn't tell, but he didn't know how he could become Gust's right-hand man?
When they reached the end of the passage, everyone squeezed into a dilapidated old elevator. Yanke proudly told them that he had renovated this elevator by himself and it took him half a year, but it was worth it. No one knew that he was still alive.
, and it’s not far from where his fake corpse is.
The elevator rose up and then entered a large container. Yanke knocked on the panel of the container and said: "This is a scrap car yard. It is a large area. Almost no one comes. But from time to time, idiots come here to dump their bodies. Some
You can also pick up a lot of good stuff when you are there, you know? Last time someone threw a computer worth 20,000 US dollars here, my God! It was simply a gift from God."
Yanke turned around and turned off the speaker connected to the bottom of the passage to prevent the sound from being transmitted. However, he adjusted the frequency of the eavesdropping device placed below to the maximum, fearing that someone would follow Ah Yao and the others. As long as there was the slightest movement, he could hear it from above.
It must be clear, that's why he can hear it when he is on top and Ah Yao on the bottom shouts only one sentence.
"Come on, let's go this way." Yangke passed through the connection with the next container, led everyone to the container next to him, then turned on the power switch, stretched out his hands and said, "Welcome to Yangke's hut, you need a drink
Want to order something? I have homemade distilled wine, which tastes great when paired with dried human flesh."
"Ah?" Ji Kefeng was stunned, "Dried human flesh?"
"Yan Ke!" Ah Yue frowned, "Don't make that kind of joke!"
"Okay! Okay! It's just a joke!" Yankee laughed, turned around and walked to the refrigerator, and started rummaging for something to eat and drink.
Tang Shuxing looked at this container that had almost everything. In addition to beds, there were sofas, but more of them were electronic equipment that he couldn't understand at all. There was also a huge one with glass on the side.
The cover has been wiped spotless and is the cleanest instrument in the entire container.
The instrument was still shining and running. Just as Tang Shuxing was about to step forward to take a look, Yang Ke immediately rushed forward to stop him with the can in his arms, saying nervously: "Don't touch this fragile baby. If
Without him, I would be deaf and blind."
Tang Shuxing nodded and immediately said: "I need to contact you. Is there a computer or something like that?"
"Who to contact?" Yankee said nervously.
"Gu Hunting Ground!" A Yue, who was resting on the sofa, spoke on behalf of Tang Shuxing, "They came from Shangdu."
Yang Ke's expression suddenly changed, becoming curious and friendly. He put the can on the table aside, grabbed Tang Shuxing's hand, sat down, and asked mysteriously: "That's right! Have you ever participated in the Gu Hunting Ground?"
, are you the Yifeng Criminal Team? I have watched the satellite broadcast, and I know it is you! It turns out that Shangdu really exists, is there any hope for me to go?"
"Uh-" Tang Shuxing looked at Yang Ke, coughed and said, "I think you'd better not go, because that place is different from what is advertised, and the customer service is not as good as expected."
"Really?" Yang Ke looked at A Yue with a disbelieving expression on his face, and A Yue shrugged to express that he was not sure.
"Xing Er, we should contact Ami and tell them our current situation." Ji Kefeng leaned to the side and said coldly.
"Tell me your contact information." Yanke sat down at the table and lifted up the canvas used to block dust, revealing nine monitors connected together inside. After turning on the computer, he immediately entered a very strange interface.
Tang Shuxing and others couldn't understand it at all. (To be continued.)
