Chapter 288 Close the Net
The interrogation room was filled with a delicate atmosphere.
Everyone else was amused by this magical question.
"I, I..."
The mandrill blushed, "We are your desirable."
Xu Ling smiled but said nothing. The originally dull atmosphere was broken. At least this old spy who had been lurking for ten years temporarily forgot his guilt towards the broad-jaw tribe, and it was much smoother to explain the truth.
"...For ten years, their request to me was just to report on the tribe's situation. High Priest, I swear to the Holy Spirit that I have never done anything to harm the tribe, I originally, hey, I had fantasized that I could continue like this."
The high priest of the broad-jaw tribe took a deep breath and finally turned into a heavy sigh.
Xu Ling asked, "Do you have anything else to ask?"
Li Xian shook his head and the major general said, "You are the person in charge of this matter, just make your own decisions."
If it were, he might have made suggestions, but after seeing Xu Ling's series of operations, he felt that even if he had been himself, he would not have done better, so he simply left his hands alone.
Xu Ling nodded and turned to the mandrill: "Now you have a chance to make meritorious service. I need you to catch the person who will contact you in Immortal City."
"I?"
The mandrill's face was gloomy and clear, "What should I do?"
Xu Ling grinned. He was very experienced in dealing with those mobile military achievements.
...
The arrest of the mandrill was not revealed in Nanhai Town. The people of the Kuanzhe Tribe only found that their God-Selected Commander had disappeared, but no one knew where he had gone.
Overall, the whole town was still calm, except for the conflicts raised by the lurkers.
That afternoon, the snow that had been falling for several days finally stopped. Nanhai Town, which had been slightly stagnant due to the weather, finally started to operate again.
The frost and mist people who went out for a change of work went on the street again. Today is the day when there is no hunting team back. They changed the location and arrived at the central square to see where there is a bridge and road construction or a job to build a house.
Zinov also became active again.
Hearing that the people around him express their respective opinions, most of whom were not optimistic about the progress of the merger, or even some hatred, he became excited and fantasized about what kind of happy life he would have when he was taken to the Immortal City.
However, not long after, a sudden sound of footsteps and discussion came from the north, and his heart was thrust for no reason.
Turning his head, the king looked at him, and saw a team of God-Selected Men and the garrison troops rumbled over. The leader was a young man with black hair, with murderous intent on his body, which looked difficult to mess with.
They scattered when they came to the square, without asking questions, just shuttled through the crowd, looking at the people around them with their eyes, as if they were looking for something.
Zinov subconsciously wanted to leave here. His sixth sense has always been very accurate. His intuition told him that if he had something to do with these people, there would definitely be problems.
He was about to turn around, but suddenly he felt someone was pulling from behind. His heart was already in his throat. When he looked back, he breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be Veluka.
"Zinov, what are they here for?"
Veruka was not worried at all. After all, he did not do anything bad. "You are well-informed, do you know."
Zinov was determined to leave here quickly, but he didn't dare to make too much noise to attract attention. He just whispered: "I don't know, I have something to do."
"Oh, okay."
Veruca felt that he was weird today, but he couldn't stop him from leaving, "I hope everything goes well."
However, he couldn't keep Zinov, but someone could.
The young man with black hair had come behind the two at some point.
"Wait a minute, my friend, where are you going?"
"I...I'll go home."
His face turned pale in an instant, but it was hidden under the mask and scarf and could not be seen. He knew that this man was from the expeditionary force, but he didn't know who he was. He always felt that the sound had stopped there.
Zinov, who was beside him, suddenly widened his eyes, and he recognized the hot tongue of Dongzhi Mandarin: "You are Galillo!"
Xu Ling smiled politely at him: "Sorry, I lied to you before. I am the caliber of the North Expeditionary Force of Xia Kingdom. I am responsible for arresting the lurkers of the Immortal City who blocked the merger and incited the confrontation of residents. I had to hide my identity. Okay, Zinov, please come with me."
Veluka was confused. What was this?
Lurker? Incite confrontation?
However, the master was soaked in cold sweat at this time. Jinov's legs were shaking like sieve. All his fantasies were shattered in an instant. If he had a ghost in his heart, his courage would not be strong.
"No, I didn't, I did nothing."
But he still followed a process and made a symbolic argument.
Xu Ling sneered: "Go back with me first."
Gucuo
It was not until he took the person away that Veluka came to his senses. After thinking about it, he finally understood that the "slim" young man who pretended to look for a job with him was an officer of Xia Guo.
The same thing happened everywhere in Nanhai Town, but some people were arrested while spreading rumors, while others were blocked directly at home. In less than half a day, all eighteen people pointed out by the mandrill were taken back.
Due to the small number of people and the past, the crime rate of the four market towns in the southeast, west and north is relatively low overall. After weighing the trade-offs, the establishment of the judicial system was still relatively slow.
So the lurkers who were caught had no place to be locked up, and all of them were detained at the garrison station.
The reason why he dared to arrest the evidence on a large scale is because the mandrill is the highest among all lurkers, and his explanation should be accurate.
In order not to further worsen the conflict between the two tribes, we can only take action in advance.
The follow-up matters have been arranged, and the managers of both parties made speeches in front of all residents, asking everyone to be calm and not to be impatient. Why would a clear explanation be given after the arrest?
As for how to explain and what to explain, don’t ask, just don’t know.
Whether it was the high priest of the Broadjaw tribe or the commander of the Frost Mist tribe, neither of them knew what Xu Ling could take out.
But they don't question it at all now.
In less than half a month, the lurker network of Immortal City was destroyed in one fell swoop, and the assassination of the Dark Priest was discovered and stopped. No one dared to doubt Xu Ling's ability and decision-making anymore.
At this time, a team of hundreds of people were gathering in the open space on the edge of the station.
"Report to the Chief, the thirty-three garrison troops have gathered, please give me instructions."
A captain stood upright in front of Xu Ling to report.
“Standby.”
"yes."
On the other side, Akim, the chosen divine candidate of the Frost Mist tribe, also brought nearly a hundred people to the other end.
"Well, my people have arrived, too."
"good."
Xu Ling confirmed that everyone could fight immediately, so he led the garrison troops, the team of God-Selected Ones, his own team and the mandrills to set out outside Nanhai Town.
A few days ago, this lurker who abandoned the darkness and turned to the light had already been taken to the suburbs by Xu Ling. Once the contact person of Immortal City was seen, he would appear in five days.
This is the unique right of the mandrill as a high-level lurker.
Today is the day to close the net. I arrived at the designated location one day in advance. Xu Ling asked everyone to hide at the appropriate location according to the plan, and then the mandrill went to the front to lure the target to take the bait.
A day later, a small team of Immortal City operators in uniform costumes appeared in the distance, and they rushed to the mandrel.
"What's going on? Was the assassination successful? Are you okay?"
I took a photo directly after three doubts.
Shan Mandrill nodded: "It's successful. I'll go assassinate at night, and no one suspects it's me."
"here you go."
The person leading the other person showed a joyful demeanor on his face. As he spoke, he took a few steps back, "Then please take your secret to meet the tribe members."
A dozen people around him raised their rifles at the same time.
Shan Mandrill's face darkened: "I have guessed this ending, but before I die, at least tell me how those children are doing."
The other party did not refuse and nodded: "To be honest, I lied to you before. I didn't know whether they were doing well. Maybe they were dead. After being brought back, they were all incorporated into the Death Soldiers' Army."
"Well... according to the habits over there, they should tell them that if they perform well, they can get your life back. But, out of good intentions, I must remind you that the death rate there is more than 50%.
Looking at the mandrill's face, a little curved curls up at the corner of his mouth: "Think about it, my friends, at least half of them are alive, aren't they?"
Crack Crack Crack.
Loading.
"Kill him."
The leader has retreated behind the crowd.
The mandrill did not move, and even did not draw a knife.
Because he knew that the people from Immortal City would deceive him, but the young man from Xia Kingdom would not.
With Xu Ling's order, hundreds of warriors rushed out like wolves and tigers.
He himself did not enter the battle, stood behind, holding his hands in front of his chest.
