Chapter 359 Chapter 356 Jigsaw Puzzle

Since Lucy said in a very positive tone that this task was worth taking, let's move on. There is no income for missions without risks. If it were not for the income, why would I be a mercenary? I would have changed my career long ago.

"Now that you know the location, prepare for rescue!" Gongdao said: "Sneak on the ground and respond with air assault. It doesn't take a lot of time to transport seven people onto the plane. Then retreat from the air and get rid of them quickly. Lucy, Don’t those people have flying machines?”

"There are no aircraft, only some cars and motorcycles. If you can walk from the air, the difficulty of evacuation can be greatly reduced." Seeing that Zhuang Xuteng did not express his opinion, Lucy asked him: "What do you think?"

"I'm thinking about how to get close there." Zhuang Xuteng frowned and said, "Because there are too many surveillance cameras, they chose to let more people observe in real time, so there is no need to record them - I think this reason is far-fetched and I still can't explain it. . Hmm... I need the general terrain map and real-time surveillance footage there. I'm going to try to find the locations of all the cameras to see if there is room for sneak entry. In addition, I really want to know what the seven-man elite team is entering. Do you also have information from these surveillance cameras?”

"Okay, let me do some research for you, and then I'll help you establish contact with the intelligence officer." Lucy said.

Nightingale and Yanque realized that they also wanted to contribute to the task, so they took the initiative and said, "Why don't you leave this job to us? It would be more convenient for us to directly establish an information network connection."

Zhuang Xuteng immediately shook his head and refused, saying: "No, I looked at those surveillance images to deduce the location of the camera. Sneaking in requires certain skills. I have to plan the route based on my own abilities. No one else can help. I'll see if I can do it first. Just sneak in. If you can't do it, then consider blocking their surveillance system. The best way to sneak in is to make them feel like everything is normal, right?"

"Then let's make some preparations and set up the communication system according to the plan of infiltrating on the ground and leaving in the air."

"Okay! You two set up a communication system and try to hear the Cemetery Gang's reaction to this matter. It's best to know how they will deal with those seven guys next. Brother Dao, prepare the helicopter and plan Check the route and be careful of obstacles." Zhuang Xuteng said, "I'll check the surveillance and find a way to sneak in. Let's go separately and gather together when we're ready."

The four people were divided into three groups. Zhuang Xuteng drove the armored ferret back to his residence in a hurry and knocked on Meteor's door. He had to come in person and watch the surveillance footage through the screen. Only by installing a brain intelligence spying implant can the signal be directly accessed and reproduced in the mind. Therefore, Nightingale and Yanque can monitor the footage directly through the Internet, but Zhuang Xuteng cannot.

Meteor knew that Zhuang Xuteng was coming and started preparing in advance, but the workload was heavy and he couldn't finish it before the door knocked.

"Come in, come in!" Meteor was running around the house in silk pajamas, waving hard to Zhuang Xuteng. "Just give me a moment and I'll connect the TV to you!"

"I'll do it with you!" Zhuang Xuteng glanced outside the door to make sure no one was following him, and then carefully closed the door. Together with Meteor, he adjusted the position of the 40-inch TV and connected the power and signal cables.

"You will transmit all the images from the surveillance cameras to this TV later?" Zhuang Xuteng thought for a while and said, "I also need a table, a pen, and a piece of white paper as large as possible."

"I have them all. I have them all here." Liuxing grabbed Zhuang Xuteng's arm and dragged him to the side of the studio. "There are rolls of paper on top of this cabinet. You lift me up and I'll get it for you."

"I can do it myself." Zhuang Xuteng touched Meteor's head, hinting that he had seen through her little thoughts. He opened the cabinet door and stood on tiptoes. Although there was still a few centimeters gap between the drawing paper on the top layer, the invisible tentacles of the wraith were enough to make up for this shortcoming. From Meteor's point of view, those pieces of paper shamelessly slipped into Zhuang Xuteng's hands, ruining her little plan.

"Don't pout, you look like you've been wronged. I have a gift for you." Zhuang Xuteng held the paper in one hand and took out the VIP of the "Veteran's Home" Implant Care Shop from his pocket with the other hand. Card.

"Me, Ge Gongdao, sisters Nightingale and Yanque invested in opening this store. First, we can save our income as mercenaries in another way. In addition, this is also a gathering place for us." Zhuang Xuteng said: "This I specially prepared this VIP card for you. I know you don’t like to go out, but I think you will eventually be able to overcome this problem and be able to go wherever you want. If one day, I hope you can go to the store. , enjoy implant maintenance services.”

Meteor took the card with gold characters on the black background, turned it over and looked at it. "Who else did you prepare cards for?"

"I will be responsible for sending two, one for you and the other for Morgana." Zhuang Xuteng took a look in his pocket, and sure enough, there was another one. "Morgana hasn't had time to send this one away yet."

"Let me take a look!" Meteor reached out to grab it, and Zhuang Xuteng let her grab it. "The number is behind me... you've passed the test! I'll give it back to you. Take the time to deliver it to your little lover!"

"Okay, you just need to approve it..." Zhuang Xuteng rolled his eyes, snorted, and said after putting away the card, "Can you focus on your work? What's going on with those seven unlucky guys?"

"I don't know either. I haven't found any information about them before they got into trouble." Meteor always went barefoot at home. She ran to her daily work desk, opened the drawer, put the VIP card into a small silver dressing box, and locked it. "Well... I checked the traffic surveillance video and found out their departure time. Sit down in front of the TV first, and I'll take over the signal for you."

After that, she climbed onto the reclining chair for work and put on a full-coverage information helmet. The helmet was connected to more than ten cables, which were then connected to six different devices to bring Meteor into the information network. And the reclining chair was always ready to inject Meteor with drugs, including those to resist the side effects of implants, strengthen nutrition, and stimulate body functions for emergency treatment, all to keep Meteor in the world.

The signal was transmitted, and the TV in front of Zhuang Xuteng had an image. "At 7:45 p.m. the night before yesterday, these seven people took four cars onto Highway 6. They left the highway at an intersection in advance. In the remote monitoring, they can vaguely be seen heading straight for the Cemetery Gang training base along the secondary road. This is the last surveillance footage that can be found."

The screen repeatedly played the last few frames, and then Liuxing controlled the equipment to transmit the surveillance footage from the "old house". Once the connection is established, she does not need to stay in the network all the time. She took off her helmet, wiped the blood off her face with disinfectant wipes, then ran over with a smile, sat down on the sofa, and squeezed together with Zhuang Xuteng.

"Don't move, sit up straight, I'll press your head for you." Zhuang Xuteng put his left palm on Liuxing's head to remove the side effects of the implant, and his right hand was still drawing on paper. They had seen the topographic map near the old house at Lucy's place before, and now he had to analyze it based on the surveillance footage, find the area covered by each camera, mark them out, and find the cameras.

Liuxing, whose head was pressed, could only sit obediently, but she felt satisfied to be able to stick to Zhuang Xuteng all the time. The girl looked at Zhuang Xuteng drawing on the paper, watching the lines gradually turn into a bird's-eye view of the surrounding environment of the house. Then, some triangular cones appeared on the drawing, and she could see that they were the locations of the cameras.

"Your ability to restore is really strong!" Liuxing praised: "I feel dizzy when I look at those cameras. Except for the trees and other buildings in the picture as reference, I can't tell where they are."

"It's like this at the beginning. I have to build an overview of the environment through those images with rich picture information, and then slowly deal with those simple and monotonous pictures." Zhuang Xuteng looked up at the clock and said: "It's two o'clock in the afternoon now. We have time. When the shadow of the house becomes longer, it will be much easier to locate."

"I still think it's so confusing... I don't understand how you do it at all." Liuxing tried to put his chin on Zhuang Xuteng's shoulder, but he grabbed his head with his left hand and moved him out.

"Don't make trouble. If you want to help, I'll give you a job: find some sticky notes to number the surveillance cameras."

"The screen will heat up, and the sticky notes won't last, and I have a better way." Liuxing stood up and walked to her pile of equipment, and pushed a cable as thick as a pinky finger into his forehead. The surveillance screen shook, then stabilized, and there was a number on it.

"Great, it's easier to sort it out." Zhuang Xuteng wrote it on paper and added a number next to the location of the surveillance camera he found. He saw Liuxing trying to get closer with his peripheral vision, so he frowned and said, "Don't bother me now. If these things are wrongly labeled, I might walk into the range of the camera and be discovered by them. The seven people were all captured alive before, and this matter is weird. You don't want me to join those seven people inexplicably, right?"

Liuxing was stunned, shook his head and put away his playful heart. "I'll get you some drinks, what do you want to drink?"

"I'll drink what you usually drink. Or just give me water." Zhuang Xuteng knew from Liuxing's expression that she had become serious, so he put his mind at ease and focused on the analysis.

While watching the surveillance video and drawing, Zhuang Xuteng fully mobilized his brain so that his image memory and analytical ability could be fully combined. There were more and more lines on the paper, and the complexity was increasing, which made people dizzy. Liuxing could no longer keep up with Zhuang Xuteng's thinking, so she had to concentrate on feeding.

Pick up a biscuit, put it on Zhuang Xuteng's lips and poke it gently, then watch Zhuang Xuteng eat the biscuit with a crooked mouth - Liuxing thought this was particularly fun, especially that Zhuang Xuteng was as docile as a meat bun, which was so novel and interesting.

"Do you want to eat something else? This biscuit is not sweet, and the taste is actually very ordinary."

Zhuang Xuteng seemed not to hear this, and kept frowning and drawing a map with the camera.

"A focused man is the most handsome." Meteor didn't feel offended. He tilted his head to stare at Zhuang Xuteng and continued to feed him. These biscuits are specially made for brain users. They contain a lot of nutrients that are beneficial to the brain, such as vitamins, amino acids, fats, etc. Zhuang Xuteng needed these at the moment, so he accepted them all and swallowed them.

Two hours later, the paper in front of Zhuang Xuteng was a mess, and others would never recognize what it was. He first muttered to himself, and then said to Meteor: "This is not right... The image doesn't match."

"Look at your paper. It's already very messy. Maybe that's why I'm sorry to come." Meteor shrugged and said, "I suggest you change the paper and rearrange it. By the way, what do you want for dinner? I You need to order food from the apartment’s canteen in advance.”

Zhuang Xuteng rubbed his stomach, frowned slightly, and said, "It's strange, I'm not hungry at all."

"I just fed you a lot of nutritious biscuits, didn't you know?"

Zhuang Xuteng searched the gaps between his teeth and mouth with his tongue, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Yes, it seems that he ate biscuits. Thank you, I didn't pay attention at all."

"It doesn't matter, you are more focused. Let's do this, I will prepare a portion for you whatever you want to eat. I don't eat much, and you have a big head, so there must be room in your stomach. Anyway, you are not hungry now, so it can be a midnight snack. "

Zhuang Xuteng nodded and said: "Judging from the current situation, it will be difficult to complete it in a short time. It will probably take until very late. Meteor, please help me call Brother Dao and tell him that I have encountered some problems. I can’t do anything at the moment. I’d like to ask how things are going with him and the sisters.”

"Okay!" Meteor nodded and agreed.

Meteor was in a good mood now. She would agree to Zhuang Xuteng for anything else, let alone asking her to make a phone call. From the fact that Zhuang Xuteng didn't notice that he was being fed cookies, Meteor came to an important conclusion: he completely trusted himself and did not regard himself as an outsider at all.

Mercenaries like Naike are very alert and want to turn a blind eye even when sleeping, and are always vigilant about their surroundings. Not to mention stuffing things into their mouths, it is difficult to even approach them lightly. Meteor has heard many such things in the information network, including some cases where mercenaries were unable to change their habits after leaving the industry and accidentally hurt their loved ones. Naike was not wary of himself, not because he did not have the ability to stay vigilant, but because he naturally let down his guard in front of him.

She likes this naturally.

"What else do you need?" Meteor asked.

"Uh... it's best to find me some photos of the area around the old house, as well as its architectural structural drawings. It doesn't need to look like what the interior looks like now, as long as the dimensions of the house can be clearly marked. By the way, a ruler, a compass, and a protractor." Zhuang Xuteng scratched his head and said: "The things I saw on the surveillance camera can't be put together. This shouldn't happen. Oh, maybe I made a mistake somewhere. I'll do it again. I'm sorry for delaying your rest."

"It's okay, I'm not tired as long as you're with me!" Meteor looked very excited and immediately ran around, busy doing other things.
