Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Early the next morning, a convoy of supplies set off in Qingshui City.  There is a military vehicle at the front and rear of the convoy, which is what Zhang Haoran said, the troops of the City Defense Army.  And at the rear of the convoy, a camouflage jeep followed closely behind, and it was Hawkeye and others in the car.

    From Qingshui City to Wildfire Village, there is more than half a day's journey in between.  It was still the same as when they came back from the Federation, but this time Lu Ming sat in the co-pilot, while Iron Bucket and Comb sat in the back seat.

    ?Departed in the morning, and after driving for half a day with the convoy, the entire convoy stopped.  Because it was time for dinner, everyone chose to get out of the car to eat, even the members of the city defense army were no exception.  Hawkeye saw that the people who got off the car were divided into two groups, one group was the driver of the convoy, and the other group was the city defense troops in uniform.  Everyone was holding lunch boxes in their hands, and it seemed that they planned to have lunch on the side of the road.

    Looking at the comb and iron bucket in the back row, Hawkeye said: "Let's get out of the car and have a meal too." The iron bucket rested on Comb's lap, and after hearing the word "eat", she sat up and rubbed her eyes  .

    "Did you eat so soon?"

    Comb glanced fondly at the iron bucket, and then said: "It won't be long after eating."

    "Well, what are you eating, Captain?"

    Pointing to the trunk, Hawkeye replied: "There is a lunch box in the trunk. You can eat this at noon and night. If you think it's not enough, there are some dry food and the like."

    Tie Tong stretched out his hand to open the car door, and said, "I don't know how long this investigation will take. Is this enough?"

    Hawkeye also got out of the car and quickly walked to the back of the car. He opened the trunk and said, "Wildfire Village is not far from Qingshui City, so there is no need to bring a lot of supplies. And it's just for investigation, not for a long-term mission.  Enough time."

    Tie Tong yawned, but she didn't say anything more about the lunch box that Hawkeye handed over.  After distributing the lunch boxes, Hawkeye said to everyone, "Everything is cold now, everyone just eat."

    The four of them found a secluded place on the side of the road, and then quietly ate their boxed lunch.  While eating, Lu Ming looked at the convoy and the people of the City Defense Army not far away.  In Qingshui City, it is quite common to come out of the sports car team, and they are members of the same team. Everyone is quite familiar with each other, so they chat in small groups while eating, and the atmosphere is relatively relaxed.

    Compared with this group of drivers who have been away all year round, the city defense army is much quieter. After all, they are soldiers, and they put discipline first no matter what they do.  Things like eating or talking loudly are basically invisible to them.

    Withdrawing his gaze, Lu Ming turned to look around again.  Because there is a certain distance from Qingshui City, there are no high-rise buildings here, and there are no other distinctive things here except for the endless forest.

    After taking two bites of the meal, Hawkeye who was beside Lu Ming finished the meal first.  Taking out a garbage bag, Hawkeye said to the people who hadn't finished eating: "After you finish eating, remember to put the garbage in it. I'll find a convenient place first."

    After speaking, Hawkeye got up and walked towards the jeep, took out a bottle of water, and after Hawkeye drank half of the bottle, he walked towards the depths of the opposite forest.

    Putting down the lunch box, Lu Ming also finished his meal, and there was nothing else to do, so he planned to go back to the car to rest.  Seeing Lu Ming get up, Tie Tong was surprised and said, "Shadow, do you eat so fast too?"

    After Zhang Haoran confirmed Lu Ming's code name, the members of the team also changed their names one after another, and everyone called Lu Ming "shadow".  Although it was a little unaccustomed at first, everyone has come here like this. After a long time, even if you are not used to it, you will gradually get used to it.

    Lu Ming nodded slightly, then returned to the car.

    Looking at Lu Ming sitting in the car, Tie Tong said to the comb beside him: "He is so cold."

    Comb put down the lunch box, and looked at the iron bucket with his hands on his hips with displeasure.  Seeing Comb's expression, Tie Tong wondered, "Did I say something wrong?"

    Without speaking, Comb took out his mobile phone, and then said to the iron bucket: "Look at what you look like now."

    Through the reflection on the screen of the mobile phone, Tie Tong found that there were a lot of rice grains on his mouth.

    "Huh? What's going on here?"

    "You ask me who I ask? I really don't know how you eat."

    Disgusted, dismissed, Comb took out a tissue from his pocket, and patiently helped the iron bucket wipe the rice grains at the corners of his mouth.  In the eyes of others, this scene is like an intimate scene between mother and daughter.

    After returning from the convenience in the woods, Hawkeye opened the car door and sat in. Seeing the co-pilot Lu Ming staring into the distance in a daze, Hawkeye smiled and said, "Have you finished eating?"

    "Um."

    "The people in the team probably will get on the bus right after eating, and they will lie down and rest for a while.Well, I'll wake you up when I set off later.  "

    Originally wanted to decline a few words, but seeing the faint smile on Hawkeye's face, Lu Ming hesitated for a while, and said, "Okay then, I'll trouble you, Captain."

    Waving his hand, Hawkeye had an indifferent expression on his face.

    Not long after, the iron bucket and comb came back after eating.  The two rested in the car for a while, and then the team members also boarded the car one after another.  With the sound of the engine starting, the convoy began to move on.

    Time passed slowly, and at nearly four o'clock in the afternoon, the convoy finally arrived at Yehuo Village.  Except for the two stopped military vehicles, the rest of the vehicles did not stop at Yehuo Village, but drove into the distance.

    Park the jeep, open the door and get out.  Yehuo Village is said to be next to this road, but it is actually about a few hundred meters away from here.  There is a small road from the village that connects here, but unfortunately, it is too narrow for large vehicles.

    Looking at the inconspicuous path in the woods, Hawkeye thought about what he would do after entering the village.  Not far away, the City Defense Army was gathering to count after getting off the car.  Lu Ming was watching with great interest when suddenly a soldier who looked like an officer walked towards him quickly.

    The officer had already received an order beforehand, and their city defense army needed to obey Hawkeye's command for this operation.  Without hesitation, the officer stood still in front of Hawkeye, and then said loudly: "Sir, all forty-four members of the City Defense Army have arrived, please give instructions!"

    After thinking for a while, Hawkeye said: "You leave a few people to guard here, and the rest follow me into the village. After entering the village, let your people be divided into two parts, one part is responsible for the security work outside, and the other part assists  Let's investigate, understand?"

    "Understood, sir!"

    "Go, arrange things on your side, and we'll set off right away."

    "yes."

    Watching the officer return to the City Defense Army, Hawkeye turned around and said to Lu Ming and the others: "The investigation is about to start, and my current plan is to complete the preliminary investigation work when it gets dark. If it goes well,  We can avoid spending the night here, otherwise the investigation will be postponed."

    "After entering the village, I will be in the same group as Shadow, and you will be in the same group as Iron Bucket. We will split up to make the investigation faster. In addition, if you encounter any problems or find anything, please contact me in time."

    After finishing speaking, Hawkeye pointed to the headset next to his ear.

    "clear."

    "learn."

    The comb and the iron bucket responded, just at that moment the officer came over with someone, and Hawkeye ordered: "Let's go, let's go."
