Enforcer's Handbook
Chapter 183 Relying on friends when away from home
After some narration by the bar owner, the two got two important pieces of information.
First, before he disappeared, Deputy Captain Eric had been investigating a man with a cross-shaped scar on the back of his neck. According to the bar owner, this man was the leader of the looters who attacked Jianlong Town that year; second, Eric was After drinking too much, he drove directly to the desert area without stopping in Jianlong Town.
The last location left by the hover car was Jianlong Town. In other words, before heading to the desert area, Eric artificially turned off the hover car's positioning system.
These two points are both suspicious and can explain the reason for Eric's disappearance.
The bar owner really seemed to regard them as Eric's colleagues and said everything he could think of. At this moment, he was just an old man who was extremely anxious because of the disappearance of his adopted son.
Lu Xiang sighed softly. She could understand her boss's mood at the moment. He was just a simple citizen who had lived in Jianlong Town for most of his life.
But……
"Have you ever thought about something?"
She said, "If we were the men sent by that person to deal with the aftermath, you would be dead now. Not only you, but everyone in Jianlong Town would probably be implicated."
This time, they were lucky enough.
If the other party comes one step ahead of them, they will be greeted by a pile of corpses at this moment, and all clues about Eric will stop here.
The bar owner paused and looked at the two men with a somewhat frightened look.
"Don't be nervous. I just want to tell you one thing. No matter who comes here and what they say to you, don't mention it to them."
Most of the content contained in the bar owner's story was enough to get him killed.
"Then Eric..."
"We'll do whatever we can to help you find him."
"thanks, thanks!"
…………………………
After coming out of the bar, Lu Xiang felt heavy.
Not only because of Eric's experience and ending, but also because she made a promise to the bar owner that was almost impossible to keep.
Seeing her boss watching them go away with tears in her eyes at the door, she felt even worse.
Vice Captain Eric's fate is already doomed. Even if he finally finds the location of the accident, he may not be able to bring him back to Jianlong Town alive.
He took the initiative to cut off the positioning of the hover vehicle before leaving Jianlong Town, and disappeared in the desert area for nearly a week. Even if he left any clues at that time, they would have been completely buried by the sand. This was tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.
The only way Lu Xiang could think of was to do the opposite and use the characteristics of the cross-shaped scar to find the target of Deputy Captain Eric's investigation before he disappeared, and then ask the other party about Eric's whereabouts.
"The rewritten surveillance video is most likely related to the person with the cross-shaped scar on the back of the neck. Eric should have been silenced after discovering something in the video, but if the person in the video is so important to him, Then he will definitely try to leave a backup."
As long as you find the video that Eric privately backed up, you can know what happened on the day the leader of the Twelfth Country disappeared.
"We're already here, let's find Eric first. He might take such an important thing with him directly."
Song Lan put forward different opinions.
"Find Eric?"
Lu Xiang blinked, wondering if he heard wrongly.
"If it was a convoy, it might be more difficult to find it. Fortunately, the hover car he was riding in is very rare in desert areas. If you ask the locals a little bit, you might be able to find the location of the incident."
Asking local people is indeed a common method of investigation.
But the locals in the desert area...
Lu Xiang suddenly thought of something. She looked at Song Lan with shock in her eyes. She really couldn't imagine how the other party's thinking could be so broad.
A quarter of an hour later, the death crab poked its head out of the sand, confirming her guess.
She had to admit that Song Lan's utilization of mutated creatures had reached an incredible level. Not only did he call on them to fight together, but now he even came to investigate missing persons.
Lu Xiang saw that after Song Lan had an incomprehensible exchange with the death crab, the death crab half emerged from the sand.
"Great. It said it has seen Vice Captain Eric's hover car and can take us there. The mutated animals in the desert area are really hospitable."
While talking, Song Lan had already climbed up first, followed closely by Lu Xiang. She hugged her knees and sat on the death crab's carapace.
She had heard many descriptions of death crabs and had never thought that the word "hospitality" could be applied to them.
The feeling is almost the same as sitting on a hard bed, and probably because I just emerged from the sand, my butt feels a little hot when I sit on it.
But the Death Crab had already taken the initiative to serve as free transportation, and she was too embarrassed to make suggestions for improving the temperature of the carapace.
It’s free, so you can’t ask for too much.
"How did you get the idea to ask them to help?"
"Haven't you heard the old saying? Rely on your friends when you go out. We are all buddies. We should help each other when we encounter difficulties."
"But how are you going to help them?"
"I told them my home address and contact information, and told them to come to me if they encounter trouble in the future. I will definitely help them if I can."
"you……"
Lu Xiang was completely speechless.
With the size of the Death Crab, if it really came to District 17 to play with Song Lan, it would be like an invasion by a mutated monster, and it would scare many citizens along the way.
Song Lan seemed to see Lu Xiang's worry, "Don't worry, we have a special communication method, which is similar to the radio communication code. When they arrive, they can contact me directly before meeting, and I will go out to find them directly."
He felt that not many people had conducted research on Death Crabs before him. It turned out that these mutated creatures also had psychic powers of varying strengths.
Psychics can not only be used for fighting and killing, but can also be used as a telephone.
During the conversation, the Death Crab had already taken them to the scene of the incident. Looking around, they could see the endless desert. After deviating from the lane, they no longer knew where they were. They wanted to escape without the help of the local "enthusiastic residents". "It's almost impossible to find Eric and his hover car without the help of
People and cars were submerged in the sand.
Song Lan communicated with the Death Crab for a moment in a way that Lu Xiang couldn't understand. Then it leaned over and put them down, and then got into the ground.
About a minute later, a burned-out hover car wreckage and a highly dried corpse were pulled out of the ground by the Death Crab.
The clothes on the corpse were only tattered strips of cloth, and many bones on the body were broken, making it impossible to see his original appearance.
"It was the minigun."
After Lu Xiang bent down and looked at the body, he quickly came to a conclusion.
The most seriously injured part was the chest. From the perspective of the fracture, the bullet was struck diagonally above Eric's head.
The situation seemed to have surfaced in her mind.
That night, Eric landed the hover car here for some reason. He got out of the car and stood not far from the hover car.
Not long after, an armed helicopter equipped with a minigun appeared. Before Eric could make any evasion, the minigun directly hit him in the sieve.
Before leaving, the opponent also used anti-material weapons to destroy the hover vehicle.
"The question is, who called Eric here?"
