Gunfire, Punk & Necromancers

Chapter 245 Chapter 242
"Save him or kill him?" Zhuang Xuteng asked a question.

"If you want to kill him, it's only because he doesn't support the local mercenaries in Peicheng. He's like a bereaved dog and can no longer affect the situation. His remaining value is to issue a commission, and we will complete the commission." Lu Xi waved his hand and said, "I've earned money, so I don't need to add extra effort."

"Understood." Zhuang Xuteng nodded, and said: "The task requires arriving at the designated place at five o'clock this afternoon, and there are still six hours left—the two of us will make preparations now."

"That's right." Ge Gongdao also stood up and said, "If you can give so much money, you have to prepare according to the corresponding risk level. Naike, this time you have to use your armored vehicle."

"I put all the armor plates on for maximum protection." Zhuang Xuteng thought for a while and said, "Brother Dao, go find a heavy truck and make some flags. Let's pretend to be freight drivers and drive the armored vehicles on the road What do you think of using the Mercedes-Benz Motors Company as an advertisement on the banner?"

"Leading people out of the city with great fanfare? I'm afraid it's not so easy to fool." Ge Gongdao frowned, stroking the wolf's fur and said: "The interceptor won't check you just because you don't look like a bodyguard."

"He has to catch up first. If we intercept him directly on the road, we will turn the truck over and drive the armored vehicle to continue. If they follow behind, we will go to the rest station as soon as we leave the city, where we will identify and kill them." Zhuang Xuteng Said: "An extra car means an extra fuel, let the armored car save a little, maybe it will come in handy."

"Okay, I'll go find a truck." Ge Gongdao asked about the weight and size of the armored vehicle, and then split up with Zhuang Xuteng.

Three hours later, they reunited, and Ge Gong found a truck for transporting cars.He said the driver of the car was fine today and was willing to earn some extra money.

"In this way, we can change the plan a little bit." Zhuang Xuteng said: "You are with the armored vehicle and the truck, and wait at the entrance of the highway. I will bring the sardines to meet you, and then we will set off together."

In this mission, sardine is the code name of Jamil Cannings, which is taken from "canned sardines", indicating that he needs to be packed in an iron box for protection.

"How are you going? Are you going in my car?" Ge Gongdao shook his head: "I'm going to pick up people, you look at the trucks and armored vehicles. Do you know the vehicle-ship intermodal port in the dock area? It has a Large truck parking lot, you wait for me there."

"This method is also fine. I remember the location. Be careful on the way." Zhuang Xuteng said: "Although it is not far from the pick-up point to the intermodal port, the situation in the city is complicated, and this road is the most prone to accidents. Come here as soon as possible. , don't delay."

"I understand." Ge Gongdao and Zhuang Xuteng checked their watches, checked each other's equipment, and then set off with high fives.

The truck driver Gegongdao found was a thin old man, not tall, wearing a white sweater, gray trousers, and black cloth shoes.The skin on the left side of his body was rough, dark and wrinkled, while the right side was normal. This was caused by driving a truck for a long time, and the left side was exposed to more sunlight and wind.Zhuang Xuteng leaned over, handed him a cigar, chatted for a while, and learned that his name was Gao Jianer, a native of Peicheng, and he had been driving for 38 years.

"I don't ask, I can't hear, let alone talk. I'll go wherever you tell me to go, and I can go wherever you want. As long as this truck can pass, I can do it as required." General Gao Jianer Put it away, then took the second one that Zhuang Xuteng handed over, then lit it up, and said: "Thank you, thank you. I understand how to make extra money, please rest assured."

"In that case, let's go." Zhuang Xuteng said: "Wharf area, the port for vehicle and ship intermodal transport, the truck parking lot outside the east entrance. Do you know where it is?"

"I know, it's easy to go there." Gao Jianer snapped his fingers, then held a cigar between his fingers, and said, "Are you in the cab in front, or in the car behind?"

"In the back car. I'll watch the road, and you'll be waiting there as soon as possible under the premise of ensuring safety. Is there a charge to enter that parking lot?"

"I'm just going to tell you about this. For a car like ours, it costs 100 euros per hour for temporary parking. That's a lot of money!"

"I'll give it to you." Zhuang Xuteng calculated the time and gave him three hundred euros. "It should be less than an hour, at most two, and you can keep the rest of the money for yourself."

"Thank you then! Let's go now!"

Zhuang Xuteng climbed onto the back of the truck and walked carefully between the steel frames.He checked the fixing device again, not only to ensure that the armored vehicle would not loosen and fall during transportation, but also that it could be released from the restraints at critical moments and leave the truck.

To achieve this, the armored vehicle can only be mounted on the rear of the van with minimum stability - Zhuang Xunteng is going to check this.He wanted to ensure that the current locking device could not resist the power of the armored vehicle. At critical moments, as long as he slammed on the accelerator, the vehicle would be able to break free directly.At the same time, he used his eyes and body to measure the escape route of the armored vehicle, keeping the surrounding environment firmly in mind so that he would not hit the steel frames on both sides when leaving.

I'm afraid that the armored vehicle will bring the truck down, and the two of them will overturn at the same time, then it will really be impossible to pull it up.

As the steam engine continues to increase pressure, the wagon slowly starts and gets faster and faster.Gao Jianer's driving skills are good, which can be seen from the calm and smooth steering of the vehicle.Zhuang Xuteng looked at the shelf for a while, gradually relieved, then entered from behind the armored vehicle, and observed the movement route of the truck through the porthole.

The road has been going smoothly. Gao Jianer chose a safe route. Although he took a detour, he avoided the traffic jam and they arrived at the truck parking lot on time.This Gao Jianer can use his brain, put in a little effort in advance, seize a place that is easy to leave, and put the truck into the parking space. He intentionally parked a little crookedly, and the tires pressed against the parking line of the next parking space.In this way, truck drivers are less likely to squeeze with him here, which allowed him to occupy a parking space on Gegong Road.

The wagon did not stall, and kept idling to maintain steam engine pressure.Gao Jianer took out the lunch box from the passenger seat, put it on the steering wheel and ate slowly while observing the surroundings.Zhuang Xuteng was guarding the phone and the field radio station. He was waiting for Ge Gong to speak, but he didn't want the phone to ring.

The fact that the phone didn't ring means that nothing happened, and it would be nice if everything was simple and smooth.At the scheduled time, Ge Gongdao did not show up. He was a little anxious but could only wait patiently.After half an hour, Brother Dao still didn't show up, Zhuang Xuteng was a little restless.He looked out the window and saw Gao Jianer sleeping soundly in the cab covered with clothes.All right, this driver's psychological quality is good, I can't be compared to him.

After another 15 minutes, Brother Dao still didn't appear, and the phone didn't ring, but the battlefield radio station finally made some noise.Zhuang Xuteng knocked on the microphone, and then heard the signal they agreed upon.Okay, this means Brother Dao has entered the range of the battlefield radio station, and finally came.

"Master Gao, we're coming soon." Zhuang Xuteng lowered the window, knocked hard on the steel frame of the truck, and woke the driver up with sound and vibration.Gao Jianer woke up suddenly, looked back, then stretched out his hand out of the cab and gave him a thumbs up.He then rubbed his face and took a sip of water to put himself in the mood.

More than ten minutes later, the gasoline-engined commercial vehicle bought by Ge Gongdao turned into the parking lot.It hesitated at the first intersection, and when it saw a large truck carrying armored vehicles, it accelerated again and came straight.The handling of the new car was very good, and it parked accurately in the reserved parking space, and then saw Ge Gongdao jumping out of the cab.

"Go up from behind," Zhuang Xuteng said.

Ge Gongdao nodded, opened the back door, and dragged a man down. "Get on the armored car, get on from the back." He whispered, and at the same time took out two suitcases from the car, and closed the door with his foot.

Jamil Cannings is 45 years old this year, with fair skin and blond hair, a strong and agile body, and a pair of sharp eyes watching his surroundings vigilantly.Although he didn't wear a police uniform and lacked some foil, only a casual jacket and denim trousers, he was dressed like a tourist, but his eyes looked very playful, which made Zhuang Xuteng feel that he was carrying out investigation.

It is estimated that there have been too many recent changes. Cannings seems to lack the high-spirited and eagle-eyed look on TV, and part of the feeling of deterrence has turned into wretchedness.Zhuang Xuteng didn't like his eyes, and he also knew that it had something to do with the initial impression he had established before. In fact, he judged people by their appearance.But he had every reason to knock on the armored vehicle and urge Cannings to come in quickly.

"This is your position, fasten your seat belt. The observation window behind you has only a limited field of vision, and it doesn't make much difference whether you can see it or not." Zhuang Xuteng greeted the "guest" at the back door of the armored vehicle, and helped Ge Gongdao take the suitcase.While fixing the box with a hook, he said to Brother Dao, "Don't forget to lock the car, and knock on the steel frame three times."

"The destination has changed, it has been changed to the Jinxiu Reservoir Dam. The distance is the same, but the direction is different." Ge Gongdao said hastily.

Zhuang Xuteng frowned slightly, quickly ran through the map in his mind, and then said: "It's okay, there is no special height limit, the car can pass. You fix things, and I will talk to the driver. The shelf space is too small, you Can't squeeze through."

While they were talking, the truck had slowly left the parking space and was heading for the exit.Gao Jianer had already prepared the amount of the parking fee, so he just threw the money away, and he didn't need a receipt or anything like that.His left ear heard the sound of the bell raising the crossbar, and his right ear heard the new destination.

"Go around the city first, then go to Expressway No. 103, go down when you get to Yugucheng Exit No. [-], and take No. [-] to get to the dam." Gao Jianer said: "This road is relatively straight, and it is better than going through the middle of the mountain. Let’s go. There are some turns on the hill that are too sharp, and this kind of car generally doesn’t choose to go there.”

"The road you chose is the same as I thought, just go like this. Be careful driving on the road, let's go!"

Zhuang Xuteng returned to the armored vehicle, closed the rear door and asked, "Apart from the destination, have other things changed?"

"No—but this trip is not easy." Ge Gongdao sighed, and said, "The news I just got is that the PCPD is looking for him, which means it will be more difficult to get out of the city."

"What happened? Why were you late?"

"Let me tell." As soon as Cannings spoke, Zhuang Xuteng stretched out his palm to stop him.

"My partner knows better what I want to know." Zhuang Xuteng looked at Ge Gongdao. He deliberately ignored Cannings to show that he had absolute command over the operation.

"A total of five groups of baits were arranged, divided into three groups and two groups, and set off in two batches to deceive people. We were at the end, so it was later than scheduled. Three of the five groups were intercepted by the PCPD for inspection, and the other group was intercepted by the PCPD. The riot strike team stopped it. So far, apart from us, there is only one decoy group that continues to operate."

Zhuang Xuteng frowned and said, "Has the PCPD issued a warrant?"

"No, they're just checking. Since every PCPD knows the Chief Inspector, they'll recognize him if they see him, and word will spread. The people who set it up just have to be on PCPD radio every once in a while. Just ask if you've seen the Chief Inspector."

"They won't arrest me publicly," Cannings said, squinting his eyes and clenching his fists. "They care about their reputation, and they only use 'please' and 'request'. Once I fall into their hands, they will It will reveal its true colors. A group of snakes and scorpions, a group of tigers and wolves..."

"You're talking nonsense, you're completely wasting my time, shut up!" Zhuang Xuteng hurriedly asked, "How did those cars get stopped? PCPD stopped directly or stopped the road one by one for inspection?"

"I don't know. In order to avoid following the signal, they can only send a short signal by radio, which cannot carry complicated information." Ge Gongdao frowned, and said: "In such a short time, five vehicles have found four , PCPD does not have such a good inspection capability, it must have leaked information.”

Zhuang Xuteng frowned and thought about it carefully. "The two of us didn't leak the secrets. There is no reason for Cannings to sell himself. The truck driver was just hired. It can't be such a coincidence, and he can't sell the information of the other cars. The leaks can only happen earlier. stage……"

Cannings snorted and asked, "Is your middleman reliable?"

"If you think we're going to send you to PCPD, you can unbuckle your seat belt, open the door, and get off at any time." Zhuang Xuteng shook his head and continued to analyze: "The two of us are determined to take over the mission, and the other groups of baits will not Therefore, it is unlikely to be them. Looking at it now, there may be something wrong with the people around Cannings, who leaked the news when the commission was released."

Cannings frowned and said, "Maria will not betray me."

Both Zhuang Xuteng and Ge Gongdao had made preliminary preparations for the entrusted task of finding Cannings black material, and they knew that "Maria" was Cannings' nickname for his lover.However, the dirty mission had nothing to do with the current escort, and the two of them didn't want to expose the previous dark history, so Zhuang Xuteng pretended to ask "Maria"'s identity, and then expressed his opinion:
"What if she also wants to get rid of you, but she is afraid that you will come back to trouble her after surviving, so she arranges for you to escape to get rid of the suspicion, and at the same time secretly sells information to kill you?"

Cannings really wanted to refute this point of view, but he had neither solid evidence nor a better object of suspicion, so he could only hold back his face and endure the matter, and at most he said, "Your analysis is all wrong. What is the use?"

"If the problem is Maria, then she knows the meeting place and the approximate departure time. Her people can record the vehicles entering and exiting, and then specifically intercept them, which causes the vehicles in front to be stopped one by one for inspection. Fortunately, we changed vehicles midway, That will definitely buy some time."

Ge Gongdao scratched his head and asked, "Why didn't they just rush in and grab him?"

"One is that he is afraid that he will run away, and the other is that this kind of behavior exposes too much information, which is not good for Maria. The chief inspector only needs to use his brain a little bit to know who is most likely to betray him." Zhuang Xuteng frowned and said : "From the current point of view, PCPD will only conduct random inspections in Peicheng, but the passages out of the city will definitely be inspected one by one. Cannings, who arranged for you the location of the dam? Does Maria know?"

"I arranged it myself, but she knew it."

Zhuang Xuteng gave a thumbs up and said, "You did a great job! There will definitely be obstacles along the way, and we must find a way immediately."

There are generally three ways to face interception: go around, mix in, and rush in.Zhuang Xuteng carefully thought about the various routes out of the city. Due to the constraints of the mountains and the Peihe River, even with the enhanced passing ability of armored vehicles, he would only have a chance after leaving the city and taking the No. 10 Expressway.

But they are expected to be inspected at least at the State 10 entrance.

Breaking through must be the last option. Zhuang Xuteng can imagine that they will be attacked by the PCPD or even the riot squad, which is not good news.It's best to get past it, and this requires some manipulation.

"The car has a double-layered armor plate, the lower layer can be removed, and with the roof depression, it can just form a closed space. Although it is crowded, it can squeeze you in." Zhuang Xuteng's mind turned quickly, Arrangements were made immediately. "I'll give you an injection of oxygen-increasing medicine, the air in it is enough for you to breathe for at least half an hour. Brother Dao, your identity is too conspicuous to follow the car. When the inspectors see you, they will think of mercenaries performing tasks. You get on your motorcycle, go down halfway with your suitcase, follow from afar, and come up after passing the checkpoint."

"There are some high-value items in the suitcase! I'm going to live on those!" Cannings yelled.

"Brother Dao, just say that you are carrying out the commission of delivery. They are looking for people, and they won't be particularly entangled with you. If they don't work, just spend some money." Zhuang Xuteng said to Cannings: "In addition to rushing in, this is The best way. If you have items and implants with communication capabilities, throw them away now, and don’t seal them together in the interlayer.”

"No, no, there is still some common sense."

"Then start to act. Brother Dao, the motorcycle and luggage are handed over to you, and I will go to the roof."

Zhuang Xuteng took all the tools and opened the back door and climbed onto the roof, using both hands at the same time to remove the outer armor plate.After that, he removed the inner layer and beckoned Cannings to climb up.

"Brother Dao gave me an injection before he left, and you still have an injection kit, which is very professional..." Cannings looked at the pit on the roof, wondering if it could hold him.

"A remote-controlled machine gun can be installed here. You can squeeze in by curling up. Pay attention to the position of your hands and avoid those screw holes." Zhuang Xuteng looked up at the street signs and said, "Don't waste time. It takes another 10 minutes to get to the highway, and I have to install the casing!"

Cannings nodded, quickly lay down, and then moved his body according to Zhuang Xuteng's command, curling himself up into a baby.Zhuang Xuteng covered the outer armor and quickly screwed on the screws, thus completely sealing Cannings inside.He knocked on the armor plate to make sure that the seams were strong enough, and then checked with the Eye of Shadow, and the signal of Cannings' shadow was almost completely blocked-he felt a little relieved.

Laying the dismantled inner armor plates over the pits where the motorcycles used to hold was not aesthetically pleasing, but they at least served a reasonable purpose: flooring.Check the armored vehicle one last time, nothing from Cannings - Zhuang Xuteng locked the armored vehicle from the outside, then climbed outside along the steel shelf, and then walked around into the driver's cab.

Gao Jianer wiped off his sweat and said, "I was scared to death just now, but luckily I held the steering wheel firmly. How did you crawl in from the outside?"

"There may be an inspection up front. My name is Naike, and I'm an apprentice you just accepted. We're sending people there now, it's a private job, you have to think about the destination and the reason yourself." Zhuang Xuteng paused, and said: "I'll let you pay for it." The brain is gone, and a thousand euros will replenish the body."

"Open the front drawer and give me the big envelope with red tape inside. Come on, grab the steering wheel and control the car. No need to come over, I'll step on a constant speed, call me if you need to brake." Gao Jianer opened the envelope, from A somewhat old-looking form was pulled out from inside. "This is a freight bill, just fill it in, it's just like the real thing. I usually don't need such a good thing, but I think you are very sincere, maybe there will be a chance to cooperate again in the future."

"Let's talk about it next time." Zhuang Xuteng held the steering wheel with one hand, waiting for Gao Jianer to fill out the form.He finally finished filling in just as they saw the long queue at the highway entrance.

"Okay! It seems that there is an inspection ahead." Gao Jianer touched his cheek and said, "What's going on later? What do I need to know?"

"Now it's the two of us plus the truck and goods, and the other two are riding motorcycles to detour below and meet up in front." Zhuang Xuteng would definitely not hand over the truth, he asked directly: "About you, what do you need?" Something I know?"

Gao Jian'er felt great pressure from Zhuang Xuteng's staring eyes at him, swallowed nervously, and then told his social information in detail.Zhuang Xuteng wanted this information not only to pretend to be Gao Jianer's apprentice to deal with the inspection, but more importantly, to hold him in his hands.In case Gao Jianer needs to face pressure, he has to keep vigilant in his heart: that mercenary named Naike is likely to settle the score afterwards, but don't offend him.

The long line at the entrance of the highway was indeed for inspection, and the PCPD dispatched at least four police officers at each passageway.In addition to the identity of the driver and passengers, each car needs to open the doors and trunk for inspection, and police officers use search mirrors to look under the car.The reason given by the road guide was to search the goods organized by the gardeners, but many people thought of the TV station incident, speculated that there might be a bomb, and chose to turn around and leave.

The PCPD doesn't care about the U-turns, they only care about the passing.Zhuang Xuteng and Gao Jianer followed the truck and kept moving forward. After more than 20 minutes of queuing, they finally came to the checkpoint.Gao Jianer put on a philistine smile, and used the rich experience of an old driver to establish a relationship with PCPD, while Zhuang Xuteng stood beside him and "studied hard" with his eyes wide open.

There was no problem with the ID cards of the two people, and the temporary rush-made list also passed the test, but the armored vehicle behind aroused the interest of PCPD.They asked to open the car for inspection. Gao Jianer shirked it for a while on the grounds that he was afraid of damaging the goods. After doing enough drama, he finally asked his apprentice Naike to open the car for them to inspect.

"Don't touch anything! I'm just a freight forwarder, I can't afford to pay for Brother Fu's things."
