Regarding Lehman's warning, Shang Jianyao showed no shame, but seriously suggested:

"If you join in too, there will be more than four of us."

When he said this, he looked back at Jiang Baimian, eager to try.

Knowing that he was asking for instructions on "making friends", Jiang Baimian thought for two seconds, then shook his head.

There is no need for this yet.

After leaving the area where Lehman and his men lived, the four members of the "Old Tune Group" were ready to go to the next destination:

The "short building area" where the city ruins are located near the lake.

Buzz, one of Herwig's confidantes, lives in this area, and he has experienced the whole process of arms being robbed.

Before leaving the hotel camp, because Shang Jianyao wanted to go to the toilet, they went back to rooms "05" and "06".

As soon as he opened the door, Jiang Baimian saw a piece of paper fluttering down to the ground.

It is slightly larger than a palm, and there is a row of gray words written on it:

"Don't mind your own business!"

"There is no typo." Shang Jianyao picked up the paper with a look of surprise.

"It's not that everyone is anti-intellectual." Jiang Baimian took the paper and read it several times under the winter sun.

After Bai Chen and Long Yuehong finished solving their personal problems and walked out of the room, she handed over the paper and asked with a smile:

"Any ideas?"

"Is it to prevent us from investigating the cause of Herwig's death, or to prevent us from finding the robbed arms?" Long Yuehong followed the method taught by the team leader, and analyzed step by step, "If it is the latter, it means that the group of robbers It is very likely that it is inside the Red Stone Collection, otherwise, it would have been withdrawn to other places long ago, and only one or two people were sent over to discuss business. There is no need to threaten us. If it is the former, do I think it is too urgent? What are we doing? We haven’t found any clues yet, threatening us might as well warn Han Wanghuo at the security station.”

Papapapa, Shang Jianyao, who came out of the toilet, applauded enthusiastically, expressing his appreciation.

The applause made Long Yuehong a little happy, but also quite uncomfortable.

"Not bad." Jiang Baimian praised with a smile, "In terms of analyzing problems, you are considered a beginner."

After finishing speaking, she looked at Bai Chen:

"What's your opinion?"

After washing her face, Bai Chen, who hadn't put on a mask yet, frowned slightly and said:

"I find it kind of weird.

"It's too early...isn't it necessary?"

What she meant was that it hadn't reached the point where she needed to warn herself and others.

Jiang Baimian smiled:

"really.

"There are only four of us, and there is only one 'intermediate hunter' among them, and we haven't found any useful clues, why bother to threaten us in such a hurry?

"Didn't the arms dealer Lehman also say that? With our 'strength', it's better to give up the mission as soon as possible."

Slap, Shang Jianyao clenched his right fist and punched his left palm:

"I understand!"

"What do you understand?" Jiang Baimian asked angrily and amusedly.

Shang Jian Yao said seriously:

"They must have seen through our disguise, knowing that we are the 'Saving the World Team' sent by the ultimate villain 'Pangaea'.

"They are afraid of our strength and dare not fight us head-on, so they can only give some warnings sternly."

Jiang Baimian let out a long breath:

"You think too highly of us."

She deliberately used honorifics.

Then she said casually:

"Even if the various branches of the Hunter's Guild regularly exchange data, it will take some time for the news of Wild Grass City to reach here.

"Also, the Wild Grass City branch of the Shang Jianyao Brotherhood should still be operating normally. No one else knows what we have done."

As a genetically modified person who can sense electrical signals, Jiang Baimian is very sure that there are no such things as bugs in rooms "05" and "06" and the surrounding areas.

"The ultimate villain and saving the world are not related..." Long Yuehong muttered.

Without giving Shang Jianyao a chance to refute, Jiang Baimian "complained":

"Really, it broke my train of thought.

"Well, since we were warned without any threat, I can preliminarily think that this is actually a kind of protection."

"Protection?" Long Yuehong was startled.

Jiang Baimian explained with a smile:

"The detailed description is: Seeing that we are too weak, we are afraid that we will not be able to bear the consequences of being involved in the whirlpool, so we are given a warning in advance to keep us away from right and wrong.

"Well, apart from this, there are two other possibilities: one is that the conflict has intensified to a certain extent, and the addition of any external force will cause the balance to tilt, and they have to take some precautionary measures, but judging from Theresa's reaction and her The second is that someone deliberately made such a warning letter for the purpose of blaming XX. If this is possible, even if we don’t publicize the threatened matter, there must be someone Come to inquire and investigate, and when the time comes, the clues will be delivered to your door."

Long Yuehong felt admiration for a while, and couldn't help sighing in her heart:

Hey, I'm only 1.7 meters five after genetic modification. I don't know how far my brain is from the team leader. Uh, she has been genetically modified. There is no comparison, no comparison...

"If it's the first possibility, why protect us?" Long Yuehong asked.

Shang Jian Yao rushed ahead of Jiang Baimian, and replied seriously:

"Because I'm 1.8 meters five, and I look good..."

"Stop!" Jiang Baimian stopped singing in reverse.

She said with a smile:

"Maybe it's because we didn't wear a disguise when we first entered the Redstone Collection. At first glance, we looked like gray-soilers, no, gray-speakers."

Long Yuehong looked at the "warning letter" in her hand in astonishment, and found that there was only Huitu script on it, and no Honghe language.

He nodded thoughtfully:

"So that's how it is..."

……

The "short building area" in the ruins of the city where the Redstone Collection is located is composed of three or four-story buildings with courtyards and walls.

Before the old world was destroyed, there was another name here, but it was forgotten and no one mentioned it anymore.

It is estimated that only the materials left by Dimarco or his family in the "Underground Ark" still remember the entire Redstone collection.

According to Teresa's description, the "Old Tune Group" found the ancient tree that was hundreds of years old and had been struck by lightning at least twice.

There is also a three or four-story building with a yard and a wall behind the old tree.

Jiang Baimian got out of the car, walked to the gate, and rang the doorbell.

After nearly a minute, a male voice came from the trunk of the ancient tree that seemed to have died long ago:

"Who are you looking for?"

Before that, Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao had already set their sights on the past.

"We are the relic hunters who took over the arms robbery." Bai Chen, who was sitting in the driving seat and facing the ancient tree, replied loudly, "Mrs. Teresa asked us to come here."

"Wait a moment." The male voice in the trunk was silent for a while.

After waiting for another two or three minutes, Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao looked at another building with a yard and a wall.

A plank of the wall there lifted abruptly, revealing a large hole.

Behind the big hole is not a garden, but a deep passage.

In the next second, a man crawled out of the big hole.

He wore an iron-black mask with a metallic luster, and his flaxen hair was messy, as if it hadn't been combed for a long time.

As soon as he gained a firm footing, he saw a monkey mask with grinning teeth.

Shang Jian Yao rushed over with a whoosh.

"Stop! Distance is our friend!" The man in the iron mask was taken aback, and quickly stepped back to the side.

"Is your mask bulletproof?" Shang Jianyao asked curiously.

"No." The man in the iron mask answered blankly.

"Okay." Shang Jian Yao was a little disappointed.

At this time, Jiang Baimian has moved closer:

"You're Buzz."

"Yes." Buzz nodded.

"You were the one who spoke just now?" Jiang Baimian asked.

"Yes." Buzz wondered if the other party had a problem with his ears.

Jiang Baimian suddenly became very interested:

"You dug a lot of tunnels and connected many nearby places together?"

"I learned this from the Gray Whisperer." Baz was quite proud, "There are tunnels everywhere, and there are exits everywhere, so no one can stop me! I can even go around behind the enemy , shooting them from places they couldn't have imagined."

"A good idea." Jiang Baimian praised, "It's because of the geological structure and soil conditions here, it should be more difficult to dig a tunnel."

"We have the machines from the 'United Industries'." Buzz took the opportunity to ask, "Do you want it? It can be exchanged for a lot of things in war-torn areas where tunnels need to be dug."

"First of all, we have to wait for us to get back the batch of munitions and get the corresponding reward." Jiang Baimian responded with a smile, "Besides, in real war-torn areas, ground penetrating bombs and thermobaric bombs may be encountered at any time, hiding in underground fortifications Not necessarily a good thing."

She stopped chatting and asked seriously:

"Have you seen what those bandits look like, and do you know their origins?"

Buzz shook his head:

"They were all wearing masks, hoods and dark glasses."

Having said that, he suddenly sneered:

"This can explain some problems.

"If it's a robber from outside, if you grab it and run away, why do you need such a strict disguise?

"I'm afraid they wear hoods because they don't want others to see what their hair color looks like..."

Shangjian Yao interjected:

"This can also be achieved through hair dyeing. I can introduce a professional team to you, but it is far away..."

Jiang Baimian interrupted him:

"It seems that you have a target of suspicion."

"It must be the Gray Whisperers!" Baz said angrily. "Afterwards, a few people and I chased the ruts all the way, and found that they went to the south, and after leaving the ruins of the city, they went around to the east again!"

After finishing speaking, he roughly explained what it means to go east:

The "underground ark" of the DiMarco family and the Church of the Vigilance Sect are in the north of the city ruins; most of the Red River people are in the lake area to the west; the Gray Whisperers are mainly hidden in the buildings in the east of the city ruins; to the south are the activities of the mixed races territory.

——The park corresponding to the red stone set is located in the west of the middle.

"That's it..." Jiang Baimian was noncommittal, "Apart from these, what else did you find?"

"No more." Buzz shook his head again, "Eh...there were nine people involved in the robbery, their heights were nothing special, and there were seven or eight ambushing around..."

After asking some more details, Jiang Baimian simply replied:

"We will go to the Gray Whisperer to investigate."

Saying goodbye to Buzz and getting on the jeep, Long Yuehong sighed:

"It seems that the batch of arms might really be snatched by the Gray Whisperer..."

Jiang Baimian heard the words, looked ahead, and chuckled lightly:

"The strict camouflage does not necessarily cover the characteristics of the Greyspeakers, but may also be the hair color and eye color of the Red River people."
