Chapter 1677 - 928: Thorough Investigation to the End, Reporting Storm! (Part 2)
Then he put the walkie-talkie back on his waist.
At this moment, Li Yu saw dozens of people with luggage appearing on the road ahead, walking toward them.
They were hurrying over, seemingly avoiding something.
?
A question mark appeared in Li Yu’s mind.
It was already past four, almost five, and in half an hour it would be dark. They definitely weren’t going out to perform a task.
Li Yu had an excellent memory, almost photographic.
He recognized everyone from the Inner and Outer City, even the extra staff and old cooperative personnel.
But he didn’t recognize these people running towards them, which meant they were definitely the cooperative personnel who had recently arrived from the southwest.
And judging by their expressions, they seemed to be avoiding something.
He recalled that the protest event Uncle mentioned had just ended.
So, are these people fleeing?
What they were avoiding was Uncle and them, fleeing must mean they had a guilty conscience.
Thinking of this, Li Yu immediately said to Ju Tianrui and the others:
"Stop the car, control those people in front, be careful, they might have guns; if they resist, kill them!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold light flashed in Ju Tianrui’s eyes, and he immediately instructed the driver to stop the car.
"Xiao Ding, Xiao Liu... get off with me and tie them up."
Click—
Ju Tianrui fastened his helmet visor, unlocked the safety of his gun, and got off the infantry fighting vehicle with the gun in hand.
Thump thump—
From six or seven infantry fighting vehicles, more than twenty people got out all at once.
Over nearly a month, they had gone through so much, directly confronting Southeast Asian fraudsters, bombing the Fraudster Park, blocking zombies in torrential rain...
This had honed them like a Treasure Sword unsheathed, sharp and clear.
"Run, scatter!" someone shouted loudly among those people.
Swish!
Suddenly, these dozens of people were about to dash to the roadside.
But just then.
Bam bam bam!
A burst of gunfire.
Ju Tianrui shouted to the crowd: "Don’t move, hands on your head, squat down, anyone running gets shot immediately!"
Ju Tianrui’s eyes were piercing, and the team members beside him looked like wolves, with eyes filled only with coldness.
Some people were terrified, holding their heads and squatting down, trembling all over, saying, "Don’t kill me, don’t kill me!"
However, Ju Tianrui’s warning didn’t reach everyone.
Still, a dozen people ran toward the woods on both sides.
But they had only taken a few steps; how could they outrun bullets.
After a string of dense gunfire, those who tried to escape lay scattered on the ground.
Thump thump thump—
Ju Tianrui and others moved forward and then controlled the remaining people alive.
"Why run this way so late, and why so tense when you ran into us?" Ju Tianrui asked with a frown.
However, these people were too scared to speak.
Not wanting to waste time, Ju Tianrui directly tied them all up and threw them into a less crowded vehicle in the convoy.
The convoy moved closer and closer to Gan City.
A few minutes later.
Ju Tianrui and his group arrived outside the Fifth Satellite City.
Outside the Satellite City, Old Bi and Lao Zhou were dealing with dead bodies on the ground, and they were only halfway through.
Rumble—
Old Bi and the others saw the convoy that had been gone for a month appearing before them.
Smiles immediately appeared on their faces.
Old Bi had been terribly bored at the base recently, with Luo, Lao Yi, Ju Tianrui, Dong Tai, and Xiao Jun all absent.
Staying at the base all day was inevitably tedious.
Seeing them return at this moment seemed to ease the recently suppressed mood.
Li Yu turned to Ju Tianrui and the others behind him and said:
"You go back to the Big Camphor Tree Base first; we’ll catch up later."
At this time, it was already five in the evening, and in an hour and forty minutes, it would be dark.
The materials in the convoy were of great importance, the results of their hard work over the past month, and absolutely no accidents could occur.
"Okay, Director Li, should we bring back those people we encountered on the road?"
"Yes, bring them all back," Li Yu nodded.
"Alright, then we’ll go first."
After saying this, Ju Tianrui led the convoy in the direction of the Big Camphor Tree Base.
Since entering the Gan City area, Third Uncle had directly flown back to the Big Camphor Tree Base with a helicopter.
So they didn’t know what happened to Li Yu on the road just now.
Hundreds of vehicles passed one after another on the road outside the Fifth Satellite City.
Not far away, some cooperative personnel were curiously watching this side from the shadows.
"That’s a lot of vehicles. Are they also from the Big Camphor Tree Base? Their strength is terrifying. Luckily, I didn’t join the protest activity."
"Don’t you think it looks familiar? Didn’t we encounter this convoy on the way over?"
"Ah! It really is. That’s why I said you should have less contact with Old Ma and them. This bunch is really courting death."
"Stop blabbing. From now on, our days might not be so easy. After these bastards caused trouble, the Big Camphor Tree Base might be even more guarded against us! Worse yet, not letting us exchange for supplies will be the least of our worries. We might even get driven away."
"Ah... these goddamn bastards..."
The city gate caught fire, and the fish in the moat suffered.
In this protest activity, almost all participants were new arrivals; only a few old cooperative personnel were involved, but Old Bi and the others had dealt with them.
