"Escape quickly?" Linghu was stunned when he heard this, and it took him a while to ask, "Why do you think so?"
"Just ask," Qu Jianlei didn't elaborate. The key was that Lao Pan valued this secret very much, so he naturally couldn't talk nonsense.
Just ask... Linghu looked at him thoughtfully, then shook his head and answered seriously.
"I can say with absolute certainty that there is no quick way to escape. Even if you get a space mecha, can you jump?"
"Don't ever think that the space weapons of the Star Thieves are just decorations... Even if you get the spaceship, you won't be able to escape!"
"That's it," Qu Jianlei nodded, "Okay, you go ahead and work, I'm going to find a place to recover for a few days."
Linghu glanced at him and didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he said, "I will leave at night, so you should be careful."
After this attack, Qu Jianlei entered a state of rest again, and at the same time he did not forget to observe the star thief's reaction.
The Star Pirates have indeed strengthened their defenses, and all military depots are undergoing renovations with great fanfare.
They also figured out the pattern. After Pan Yifu and Heitian set up the military station, they must rest for a while to recuperate.
Therefore, now is the prime time to transform the military depot, and we must seize it.
In addition, the star thieves also stepped up searches in the security area.
From time to time, indigenous people were killed on various suspicions, and for a while people in the security area were panicked.
Qu Jianlei felt that the star thieves were a little crazy. Wouldn't adopting a high-pressure policy at this time force the people's hearts towards the pioneers?
But then, news came that the second detachment that went out to rob had also returned.
There are two A-level warriors in the second detachment. If they also participate in the encirclement and suppression, the pioneer regiment will really be in danger.
Qu Jianlei didn't worry so much. As I said before, the two sides fighting were two major camps and it didn't have much to do with him.
Even if the star pirates continue to rule Zarif, it will be easy for him to survive. I don't believe that the empire will never discover the anomaly.
Of course, he was also looking forward to the pioneering group's counterattack. In addition to studying the Turtle Breathing Technique, he was concentrating on regaining his energy and planning to cooperate.
Seven or eight days later, Qu Jianlei suddenly thought of a question: Once the pioneer regiment counterattacks, will the battle spread to the prisoner of war camp?
In any case, Youyou was also his recognized comrade-in-arms, and he felt that it was necessary for him to go to the core area.
In addition to understanding Youyou's situation, you can also investigate the movements of the star thief.
During this period of time, while Qu Jianlei was inquiring about information, he had already selected several more suitable substitutes.
Among them are Star Thieves spies and aborigines who support the Star Thieves.
He has no good impression of the native people who have taken refuge with the Star Thieves. These people have taken refuge simply for wealth.
Everyone wants to live a better life, and this feeling is understandable.
But just to live a better life for themselves, they betray their conscience and the interests of the majority of people. Such people do not deserve sympathy.
In the end, he chose an aborigine with a core area pass - the flagpole he chose last time was a spy, so let's change it this time.
However, he did not kill the other person. He just knocked the person unconscious, tied him up, tied his mouth with tape, and threw him into a hole.
This aborigine's name is Bortni. His figure is very similar to Qu Jianlei's, and he is considered thin among the people of the empire.
This guy's face is full of pimples, even on his neck, making it impossible for anyone to take a second look.
Bortney would often apply some medicine, but he looked weird anyway.
Qu Jianlei felt that it was easy to impersonate this person. Although it was a bit disgusting, it also avoided the possibility of being harassed like a flagpole.
What surprised him was that in the core area, Boltney was even more open than the flagpole.
I don’t know if this guy looks too disgusting, but quite a few people know him, and some people ask him what he is doing here.
Qu Jianlei answered with a smile based on his own impression - "I just came to see what the adults need me to do."
This sentence was enough, no one asked a second question, but someone waved his hand impatiently, "Get away!"
In this way, he stayed alive until the evening, and no one investigated him.
Qu Jianlei couldn't help complaining in his heart. Could it be that "because I'm ugly enough, I can do whatever I want"?
In the evening, the curfew was about to begin, and people like Bortney, who were only allowed to enter and exit, needed to leave as soon as possible.
Qu Jianlei has already inquired about a lot of information. Although it is only a piece of trivial information, it is enough.
He couldn't approach the prisoner of war camp during the day, he could just wait until night before sneaking in.
Just when he was about to leave, a middle-aged man suddenly called out to him, "Ugly, come here!"
You are the ugly one, and your whole family is ugly! Qu Jianlei walked over with a smile on his face, "Excuse me, sir, what are your orders?"
In fact, he could see clearly that the middle-aged man was also an aborigine just because of his attire and temperament.
However, aborigines and aborigines are also incomparable.
Boltney only has the qualification to enter and exit the core area freely, but the other party can live in the core area.
The middle-aged man took a half step back in disgust, then raised his hand and pointed, "Did you see that there? Go to Heni!"
More than two hundred meters away, there was a large construction site. They were building some kind of building, and there were many people working on it.
There is no shortage of ultimate warriors among the Star Thieves, nor is there any shortage of various construction machinery. However, in the core area, there is not a lot of manual labor.
Can Ultimate Warrior's powers be used casually? Don't construction machines also have to use energy as power?
Seriously, free labor is the cheapest, so he was requisitioned like this!
Qu Jianlei hesitated for a moment, then replied with a smile, "Sir, I... will be under curfew soon."
"Don't worry, the curfew won't hurt you!" The middle-aged man covered his nose in disgust, "It smells really bad... Go to work!"
The pimple on Boltney's face did have an odor, with a very obvious fishy smell, so Qu Jianlei also mixed some paint for himself.
All in all, it's a bit irritating, but it's okay if he knows he's not.
He Ni's job is not heavy, but since he plays a thin and ordinary person, he naturally works for a while and takes a break.
After dark, the lights on the construction site turned on, and it turned out that we had to stay up late to work.
Occasionally, middle-aged people would come over and scold Qu Jianlei when they saw his appearance, but other than that, there was nothing else.
Those star thieves who were on duty to check the curfew really ignored this place.
When I was working late at night, someone actually brought me something to eat, a bowl of thick paste that smelled a little sour.
Is this for human consumption? The corners of Qu Jianlei's mouth twitched slightly.
Looking at the others, who were all opening their cheeks and eating, he could only sigh inwardly and silently follow their example.
At this moment, another night patrol team came from a distance, and someone yelled, "Why haven't you finished it yet?"
This time, it was the middle-aged man's turn to step forward and explain with a smile on his face, saying that there were temporary changes to the drawings, which added a lot of workload.
Qu Jianlei didn't want to attract other people's attention, so he kept his head down and chewed slowly.
But suddenly, he vaguely felt something was wrong, and a familiar aura approached.
He looked up carefully and was immediately stunned: Isn't that woman in the Star Thieves team Youyou?
Youyou's aura is still an ordinary person, but his cultivation has obviously been banned.
However, there was a hyperfrequency oscillating dagger on her waist. Although she did not carry a gun, she was obviously no longer an ordinary prisoner of war.
She was looking around with a cold face, as if she was intimidated by strangers.
Feeling Qu Jianlei's gaze, Youyou looked at it coldly, and then couldn't help but frown slightly.
Obviously, Bortney's appearance was a bit unacceptable to her.
Qu Jianlei lowered his eyelids and continued to concentrate on eating. At the same time, he quietly released a trace of spiritual power and touched Youyou a little.
"Huh?" Youyou felt something strange in an instant.
If she hadn't been in contact with Qu Jianlei for so long, she probably wouldn't have taken him seriously, but... this was a familiar feeling.
She glanced around again and zeroed in on Qu Jianlei again - the only one with a similar figure on the construction site.
She stepped forward, stretched out her combat boots and kicked the opponent, saying coldly, "Raise your head!"
Qu Jianlei raised his head silently, and his ugly appearance came into view again, followed by an unspeakable fishy stench.
Youyou wrinkled her nose subconsciously and continued to speak coldly, "Proof of identity!"
Are you...really taking refuge in the Star Thieves? Qu Jianlei couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.
But in the end, he still chose to believe in his comrades.
He put down the rice bowl in his hand, squatted on the ground, and answered in a dry voice, "I only have an entry and exit permit. I was recruited by the adults."
Seeing this, the middle-aged man hurriedly spoke out, "Sir, the main reason is that the construction schedule is tight... a few people were temporarily recruited."
Immediately afterwards, he also kicked Qu Jianlei, "Why don't you quickly come up with the entry and exit certificate?"
No one noticed that there was a deeply hidden strange light in Youyou's eyes.
She and Qu Jianlei have been separated for a long time, but they spent more time together when they were in Junk Star!
Especially when she heard that there was an electromagnetic B-level warrior named Heitian who had been extremely active recently and caused great damage to the Star Thieves.
Youyou doesn't know how he joined Team Liehuo, nor why he cooperates with Pan Yifu.
But she was very sure that this Black Sky was her comrade Qu Jianlei - where did the empire get so many electromagnetic B-classes?
It is true that Pan Yifu has been at the base and does not know the simple fortress in Central City. He was once nicknamed Heitian.
Qu Jianlei took out his identity card, placed it on the ground, crouched down, moved his legs, and carefully took a few steps back.
By doing this, I should be portraying a humble little person, right?
Youyou pursed her lips slightly, then looked at the middle-aged man and said coldly, "Give me the certificate!"
The middle-aged man stepped forward obediently, picked up the certificate with a low waist, and handed it over with both hands in a polite manner.
Youyou didn't reach out to pick it up, she just glanced at it and asked lightly.
"Don't you know the risks of recruiting outsiders?"
