The special operations team is a fine army, and Joe Eden just wanted to seize the opportunity to learn about their action rhythm, but he didn't find any evenly matched mercenaries to surround them.As for the stinky fish and rotten shrimps that were "scattered" on the road, as long as Fu Yan was prepared in advance, the incident of being blocked at the entrance of the tunnel would never happen again.

From Yuguan to D city, the action team traveled day and night, and it took two full days.

In the past two days, the "front line" has also been sending news to Fu Yan. According to them, the trajectory of Joe Eden's actions is unpredictable, and it is not limited to a certain point. In the end, it was impossible to determine the exact location of Joe Eden's lair.

The reason why they found traces of evacuation was because in the suburbs [-] kilometers away from D city, they discovered the locator used for helicopter takeoff and landing.

According to the engineering personnel in their team, the locator had been turned on within three days, and a specific location had been sent out. I don't know if they have to wait for someone to pick it up.

"Maybe it's a cover-up." Liu Ruosong said: "Deliberately lure people over, and then make a noise so that the large army can go from the other side."

"It's not impossible." He Feng agreed: "People from the brother army said that the place where the locator was found is not far from the abandoned military airport-although the airport said it was abandoned on the surface, it was actually a temporary location. No need to put it aside. City D is a border city. The military airport there is overgrown with weeds. In fact, it is regularly maintained. Once it comes to wartime, it can be used at any time. Joe Eden is an arms dealer, he will not understand For this reason, no matter how dark the lights are, the evacuation point will not be placed in someone else's house."

He Feng's brain circuit is not the same as Liu Ruosong's, but Fu Yan sits between the two of them, and he can connect to both sides.

He Feng made a strategic judgment based on the actual situation, while Liu Ruosong remembered the last time the second team "returned without success".

That time, the coordinates of the evacuation helicopter of the opponent's research institute were not here, so Liu Ruosong instinctively felt that the difference this time was a trap given by Joe Eden under the butterfly effect.

But no matter what, at least their conclusions are the same - no one in the car believes the authenticity of this "exit point".

"He probably hasn't left yet." Fu Yan said.

"That's not the case." He Tang said: "Captain, this is not a movie, which villain will stay in place and wait for you to chase after him, then tell you a bunch of ideals in life, and finally die of talking too much. "

"He can do this kind of thing, he doesn't only have such a little psychological quality." Fu Yan said: "He has been planning here for so many years, and he looks like he has become a real 'Adam'. Do you run away if you lose track of it?"

He Tang was stopped by his question, blinked, and couldn't think of a rebuttal for a while.

"What's more, he has money, guns and people, and he has much more chips than us." Fu Yan said: "If he immediately turns around and contacts the governments of various countries with all the research materials in his hand, it doesn't matter whether this disaster against humanity is real or not. What he did is because the government wants to protect him—he has plenty of options, so there is nothing to fear from us.”

"That's right." He Tang muttered, "It's too easy to be a bad guy, and there's something to climb when you turn around."

"Congratulations." He Feng said: "Little friend, you have already comprehended the true meaning of life and glimpsed the dark reality."

He Tang: "..."

"My lord just likes to talk about growing up so cruelly." He Tang retorted: "Scaremongering, deceitful words to confuse the public."

"He Tang." Shao Qiu said in a heavy tone, "Don't interrupt."

He Tang was a little terrified of the deputy team after escaping from death. Hearing this, he shrank his neck, stuck out his tongue, laughed dryly, and made a zip gesture on his mouth.

"But he really won't stop there and wait for us." Fu Yan said: "That would be too stupid, and if this is the case, there is no need for him to find a bunch of eyes like He Laosan staring at us on the road."

"A bunch?" Liu Ruosong said, "Didn't we avoid those road sections that might be dangerous?"

"We only avoided Kazi." Fu Yan explained: "In ancient times, there were different bandits stationed on the continuous hills, and they had a unique way of contacting each other. Received news - this kind of underground black chain is everywhere, from high-intelligence criminals on the dark web to gangsters, they are all good at handling this kind of 'wind'. This way, we avoided all The intersections that can be set up are all plain open roads. This is to avoid wasting time on the road. But there are other eyes on the road... In fact, it is not difficult to avoid them all, but if that is the case, we have to It’s a long way to go around, and the gain outweighs the loss.”

"So it's better to let them see." He Feng continued: "The faster we are, the shorter their reaction period will be. If our speed is faster than their response speed, it will be useless for them to get wind of it early. "

"I understand." Liu Ruosong smiled and said, "A soldier's speed is very important."

"Joe Eden is a eccentric person. A high IQ careerist like him may not have the desire to perform." Fu Yan said something, and asked Liu Ruosong: "Ruosong, based on the average efficiency of drug development , may he have a special medicine in his hand?"

"... Difficult, but the semi-finished product should have been formed." Liu Ruosong shook his head, and said: "A year ago, Joe Aiden should have been searching for people to urgently research special medicines, otherwise he wouldn't be so urgent to win over Fang Sining."

Hearing Fang Sining's name, Shao Qiu's eyes moved slightly, and he looked sideways in Liu Ruosong's direction.

"At least we can get two pieces of information from this." Liu Ruosong raised two fingers and said, "First, Joe Eden didn't have any special medicine in his hand at that time, and he didn't even have the basic chain of research; It is because there is no research team with special effects around him - there is no professor-level person to play the leading role, so Fang Sining is the next best thing to do. No matter how talented Researcher Fang is, he is also young and inexperienced. , will not ask him to play the leading role."

When Liu Ruosong stopped nodding, Fu Yan nodded slightly, indicating that he understood what he meant.

Concerned about Shao Qiu's mood, neither of them said the following words clearly.

"But then he had an accident." But Shao Qiu abruptly continued the topic: "So, Joe Eden's pace of progress will only be worse than before, isn't that true?"

"It's not entirely certain." Liu Ruosong said very conservatively: "If Joe Aiden found someone else during this period, or if Researcher Fang left enough research data and reports at that time, the follow-up person can also follow along. His thoughts continued to go down—brother, what are you thinking about?"

"I still think he should have a more private reason for researching the zombie virus." Fu Yan said: "If this is the case, then he has been entrenched on the border of our country for so many years, and he should not be willing to do so until he gets what he wants. retreat."

"So he asked so many people to look at us, just to have fun." He Tang couldn't help but interjected, "What kind of brain circuit is this person?"

"No, he should have made some preparations." Fu Yan said: "...But it is definitely not an evacuation."

"Maybe send the petri dish away." Liu Ruosong said, "For example, send it to a safe place, hide it, and prevent us from finding it."

"It's possible." Fu Yan said ambiguously.

He kept his head half down while speaking, writing and drawing on the map in his hand.The printing of a city map is many times denser than that of a world map, and the colorful lines and dense small characters on it are intertwined, which can easily make people dizzy.Even a person like Liu Ruosong who doesn't suffer from motion sickness took a few glances, but felt dizzy, nauseated, and could only look away.

"Brother, what are you looking for?" Liu Ruosong asked.

"Joe Eden's hiding place." Fu Yan said.

As Fu Yan spoke, he made a final tick on the paper, and crossed out the dozen or so coordinate points that had been coded before.

"What's wrong?" Liu Ruosong was stunned for a moment: "None of them?"

"None." Fu Yan said, "I just thought of a problem."

People from the Military Region of Department C were in City D during this time, patrolling in sub-regions and sub-teams to act as the "eyes" for the special operations team. If any abnormalities were found, they would report the information to Fu Yan for summary.

In the past few days, Fu Yan marked all the coordinates and abnormal situations reported by them on the map, combined with his previous guesses to divide a rough area, and then extracted from the intersection of these coordinate points and high-risk areas. There are a total of thirteen coordinates, marked as suspected areas, and a little bit of investigation after preparation.

Among them is an unnamed and unowned wilderness forest near the abandoned airport. It was originally planned to develop a landscape park. Places to focus on.

But just now, Fu Yan suddenly reacted to a problem.

——City D is a border city.

When they were flying in the sky, they had to return before reaching the border to avoid invading the airspace of other countries. For Fu Yan, the "border line" is like an air wall embedded in the subconscious, which is instinctively insurmountable.

But just now He Tang was driving unsteadily, and when he tapped the brakes, Fu Yan's pen tip went out half a minute, moved up a few centimeters along the edge of the map, and landed on the blank edge area outside the large area of ​​the map, and Fu Yan suddenly reacted—who Said that Joe Eden must be in their territory.

Their country is "high-risk" and "unstable". Guns and drugs are banned. If they don't have enough security, they will be demolished one day. Putting the "petri dish" here is really not afraid of being exposed.

Unless...they have confidence, even if the research institute in the country is discovered, they can transfer the petri dish to a place they can't touch in the shortest time.

Fu Yan's pen tip slid along a long marked bridge on the map, and finally stopped on the blank edge of the map.

At that moment, it was hard for him to describe what kind of feeling flashed in his heart—it was a kind of mysterious touch, light and light, like some kind of omen, and like some kind of invisible feeling. Intangible for sure.

His heart fluttered very lightly for a moment, as if it had struck the right string.

"Here." Fu Yan said.
