Hunter of the Forbidden Region Chapter 45: Natural enemies
That night, the four of them returned to Jialinda's hotel. He Zihong called a meeting in his room.
In Anne’s eyes, today’s meeting is significantly different from the previous ad hoc meetings.
That is, everyone's identity and aspirations are more clear than before.
In fact, Lin Shuo's request has not changed, that is, to kill the hook snake and to investigate the truth of the Kunlun Mountain incident six years ago. But now, another one is added to find Xiao Ba.
Yang Tuo finally unveiled his mask and showed his identity as the Chinese representative in this operation. His purpose of coming to Xing'an Ling this time was to find out the final whereabouts of the seventy-three missing Chinese lumberjacks. To live to see people, to die to see corpses.
He Zihong was originally very obsessed with Hook Snake's scientific research project, but after He Yong's sacrifice and Yang Tuoliang's trump card, the old man suffered a major blow. His current pursuit is to conduct scientific research under the premise of ensuring everyone's personal safety.
As a representative of this security force, Wei Xingshan naturally hopes that everyone will live out of the Greater Xing'an Mountains.
For Anne, as the person in charge of this team, adding up the goals of these people is what she wants to accomplish in her own trip.
In addition, she has to consider the increasingly sensitive international situation in the Far East.
So, when all the backbones of this team came together for the first time in a few days and started this meeting, Anne clearly felt the pressure on her shoulders.
She straightened her waist, sat upright with her upper body, and reported to her superior Professor He Zihong:
"...Professor He, this is what we experienced before."
"Yeah." He Zihong nodded, "The research committee has also notified me, let us do our best to cooperate with the excavation work on the southern bank of Heilongjiang. But this is obviously nonsense. How do we cooperate in the north bank? Go to the other side and shout for cheer?"
He Zihong's joke made the atmosphere of the meeting a lot easier.
Then the old man looked at his student Yang Tuo: "Xiao Yang, when can the construction of the South Bank be carried out?"
"It will take two days for the equipment and personnel to be in place." Yang Tuo said calmly, "The construction can start the day after tomorrow. At that time, I suggest Miss Anne go there too."
"The Chinese side is indeed more responsible than the Russian side this time." He Zihong sighed and said, "Xiao Yang, thank you very much."
Yang Tuo's original indifferent expression moved slightly. He looked at his teacher and said in a rare Chen Ken tone: "Teacher, thank you for your understanding."
"Don't talk about it." He Zihong looked at Lin Shuo again and asked, "Actually, I am still at a loss about some things. Mr. Lin, can you help me solve my doubts?"
Lin Shuo nodded.
"Do you think the Dragon King messenger is reliable? After listening to Miss Anne's description, I feel that this person seems a little capricious."
"This person, of course, is unreliable." Lin Shuo shook his head, and then looked at Anne, "Miss Anne, I want to know, when your International Biological Research Institute received this request from Russia, did you ask Have you ever had the informant’s information?"
"This is not true." Anne shook her head. "The Russian side just gave us a briefing on the situation and the number of missing persons."
"This is strange." Lin Shuo said, "We went to the scene, and then we discovered that the missing people were not actually local residents. From the description of the old hunter in Longxinggou, we can know that they not only Not a local resident, and not even treated by locals.
Imagine that this group of pesky foreigners disappeared overnight, and then the locals thought it was the manifestation of the Dragon King.
So, will the locals report the crime?
I think it should not be possible. "
Listening to Lin Shuo's analysis, everyone nodded repeatedly.
"It is true." He Zihong said, "not only will they not report the crime, but they will even celebrate the occurrence of this incident."
"I remember when Miss Anne found me, it was only two weeks before the crime happened." Lin Shuo continued to ask Anne, "Then your International Biological Research Association received this commission, when was it?"
"Mr. Lin, you are actually very difficult to find." Anne said, "We were commissioned four days after the incident, and it took ten days to find you."
"Jalinda, the nearest to the crime scene, is an alcoholic, and it is impossible for him to go on patrol. Even if he learned the news, he went to the scene to check it responsibly, and then reported to the Russian authorities, and then Russia We will send someone to verify, and then report to the first level, and the high-level will negotiate, and finally entrust you." Lin Shuo said slowly, "Do you think four days are enough?"
"It's definitely not enough. We walked from Jialinda to Longxinggou. It takes three days to go back and forth." Wei Xingshan shook his head, "And that old drunkard, three days may not be enough to go back and forth."
"This is definitely not the process. So let alone four days, ten days may not be enough." Yang Tuo said, "There must be a reporter who reported the matter to the Russian government as soon as possible after the incident. "
Lin Shuo looked at Yang Tuo and nodded, and said, "The question now is, who is this reporter?"
"Mr. Lin, you suspect..."
"Yes, I suspect that the informant is Liu Shunfu, the emissary of the Dragon King." Lin Shuo said.
"Why did he report the crime?" Wei Xingshan asked, "Their generations of people have worked so hard here for so many years, and the Black Water Dragon King is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. He stabbed this matter out. This is not adding black water. Is the dragon king at risk of being captured or killed?"
"But the Black Water Dragon King was injured." Lin Shuo reminded.
Yang Tuo quickly understood: "It should be the invasion of the hook snake, which seriously threatened the Blackwater Dragon King. The Dragon King messenger felt that instead of sitting and waiting for death, it is better to kill the fish and introduce a third party force."
"It's not just that." Anne added, "He predicted the situation accurately. He knew that although the Far East usually doesn't care for his mother, but the international situation is very sensitive, the Russian government may not directly take action. As a result, , Aren’t we here? This should be the best result for him, because we won’t do anything to Blackwater Dragon King."
"Or let's change our mindset." Lin Shuo said, "If it is said that the real threat is not the Black Water Dragon King, but the Black Water Dragon Nest?"
Lin Shuo's remarks were thrown out, and Yang Tuo and Anne were almost at the same time.
He Zihong frowned slightly and asked: "Mr. Lin, is there any basis for your idea?"
"Three evidences." Lin Shuo said slowly, "The first one is the conversation with us after the dragon king’s envoy was injured. He said that in the place of Heishui Dragon’s Nest, there are several generations of Liu family, only his father I have been there alone. And after his father came back, he made him swear not to step into the Black Water Dragon Nest in this life. I think this is very strange. The Liu family of Shui Mu, in order to find a place for the Black Water Dragon King to settle down, several hundred Migrating many times over the years.
The homeland is hard to leave, this is human nature. Since they were willing to leave their homes to find the lair for the Black Water Dragon King, they finally found the new home of the Black Water Dragon King under Heilongjiang. How could they not explore it personally, but waited until his father's generation to go? This is impossible. "
"Yes." Anne nodded, "I thought his statement was not credible before."
"He said he hadn’t been there by himself, and I don’t believe it. He didn’t even go to see his animal herder’s lair. How could he ashamed to say that he was a shepherd." Lin Shuo shook his head, "So, he has been to Heilongjiang. Water Dragon’s Nest, and knows what’s going on inside. He deliberately concealed this fact from us before. This shows that Black Water Dragon’s Nest is not just an underground cave.
Furthermore, in his words, he packed the Black Water Dragon Nest very mysteriously, obviously asking us to find this place deliberately.
So I think that Blackwater Dragon Nest may be threatened by him that he cannot solve, and he wants us to intervene.
This is the first basis. "
Lin Shuo paused at this point, glanced at Professor He Zihong, then looked at Wei Xingshan and said: "The second basis is Wang Yong's death."
Wei Xingshan's face darkened and he sighed.
"There were several snipers lurking outside that I couldn't even detect." Lin Shuo said, "and they didn't kill me, Anne, Wei Xingshan, but Wang Yong, why?"
"This is a warning." Yang Tuo said.
"Yes." Lin Shuo nodded, "It can be understood as a kind of procrastination. In fact, they did procrastinate us, until the Blackwater Dragon King shot and the snipers were killed one by one, the procrastination didn't work. , That is, the Black Water Dragon King lost control, and the Dragon King messenger was seriously injured. This is obviously a process in which you come and I, and the two sides play together. At this moment, Wei Xingshan, you were attacked."
"Yes." Wei Xingshan nodded, "My deeds were exposed, and they followed me halfway."
"Why did they attack Wei Xingshan at that time? If you want Wei Xingshan's life and kill Wang Yong's bullet, why don't they attack Wei Xingshan?" Lin Shuo asked rhetorically.
"Because it was warnings and delays before, now the time is ripe for them. We are not afraid that we will find the Black Water Dragon Nest." Yang Tuo speculated.
"Then what is the sign that the time is ripe? What happened at the same time that Wei Xingshan was attacked?" Lin Shuo asked again.
"Earthquake." Yang Tuo patted the table lightly.
"Yes, earthquake." Lin Shuo looked at He Zihong again, "Earthquake is the third basis. I think the earthquake is caused by some kind of abnormality in the Black Water Dragon Nest. What have they accomplished."
"But if you speculate like this." Yang Tuo frowned, "It seems that our opponent does not exclude us from finding the Black Water Dragon Nest. It's just that we came too fast before, so they have to delay it."
"It's more than non-rejection." Lin Shuo shook his head, "Obviously this is when you are ready, please enter the urn."
"According to this, this is a trap." He Zihong frowned, "And the Dragon King messenger may not be in the same camp with us. This person is fickle, I think it is very unreliable. Mr. Lin, do you think the Dragon King messenger Will you be playing a bitter trick with us? In fact, the Blackwater Dragon King hasn't lost control?"
"If this is the case, then it will be fine." Lin Shuo smiled bitterly, "This way at least Xiao Ba is safe, because he will definitely use Xiao Ba to negotiate terms with me later."
"Mr. Lin, is it possible for the shepherd's animal to get out of control?" Anne asked at this time.
"Of course it is possible." Lin Shuo said, "Look at the herdsmen on the grassland now grazing the sheep. If the wolf comes, will the sheep get out of control? Will they run?"
"Yeah." Anne nodded.
"The animal husbandry is the same~IndoMTL.com~Lin Shuo said, "They are also afraid of natural enemies. Once there are natural enemies nearby, they will be afraid and will naturally lose control. "
"Keba snakes are so big that even hook snakes dare to fight." Wei Xingshan said in surprise, "There are still its natural enemies in this world?"
"Big, not necessarily strong." Lin Shuo shook his head, "There are many strange creatures in this world that are stronger than snakes."
"You mean, maybe there was a strange creature that was stronger than the snake in the snake?" Anne asked.
"It should not be." Lin Shuo denied, "If there are other strange creatures, I should be able to detect it."
"That..." Anne was a little confused.
"In fact, if you want the snake to flee, you don't need this kind of strange creature to appear, only a few hairs are enough." Lin Shuo explained, "this kind of powerful strange creature's hair is also called Animal husbandry. Use the animal husbandry’s fear of natural enemies to tame the animal husbandry. This is a technique used by the past herders. The smell of a few hairs is very small, and the distance is a little farther away. I can’t detect it."
"It turned out to be so." Anne understood.
"So now, I have actually received two invitations from the Blackwater Dragon Nest." Lin Shuo said, "One is from the Dragon King's Envoy by his own half-life. The other is from another group. People gave it in the form of an earthquake. I know this is a trap, but it doesn’t matter. Wait for news from the South Bank."
