Chapter 393 Investigation
Originally, according to his thinking, the reason for setting the fire was just to delay the opponent's time, but now it seems that the consequences of the fire are far greater than he imagined.
The entire Shengtian Mall was burned down in a fire. It seemed that Chen Hu and others must have moved to another place.
"Huihui, what happens next is up to you!" Meng Ren said.
Zhu Huihui smiled and nodded, then controlled the clay bird to start looking for traces of Chen Hu and others' departure.
There are so many people in Chen Hu's group, and the relocation of so many people will inevitably leave a lot of traces. Next, the two of them only need to follow these traces, and they can easily find the new camp of Chen Hu's group.
Zhu Huihui did not disappoint him. In a short time, she found the traces of Chen Hu and others' departure.
I saw a series of marks on the ground of the road, which were obviously wheel marks. In addition, there were a lot of footprints.
Judging from these traces, Chen Hu and others went east.
"The traces were found!" Zhu Huihui said.
Meng Ren had a smile on his face, and then he and Zhu Huihui followed the mark on the ground to catch up.
The two of them followed the traces left on the ground. The more they walked, the more familiar the road became. When they reached the final point, Meng Ren couldn't help but have a strange look on his face, because the place in front of him was so obvious. It's the underground air raid shelter where Camp White Rock is located.
"I didn't expect that Chen Hu would put the camp here temporarily, but it seems quite normal!"
"It's just that because of the opening of underground farms, the underground air-raid shelter has already begun to become crowded. Now that Chen Hu and his group are added, it will probably become even more crowded, right?" Meng Ren said with a strange expression.
Zhu Huihui volunteered: "I'll let the clay black cat go in to investigate the situation."
"Okay." Meng Ren nodded.
Zhu Huihui immediately started to act. She opened the box again. This time what jumped out was a clay black cat about the size of an adult's palm.
In order to give the clay black cat a better sneaking ability, Zhu Huihui deliberately reduced the size of the clay black cat.
However, the clay black cat, which is only about the size of a palm, is very inconspicuous, especially with its black body, which can blend into the darkness silently.
As long as they don't observe carefully, it would be a fool's errand for ordinary people to see the existence of a clay black cat in the dark.
Under Zhu Huihui's control, the clay black cat quietly walked towards the location of the underground air raid shelter.
There were four people guarding the door of the underground air raid shelter, but the four of them obviously did not see the existence of the clay black cat.
The clay black cat swaggered directly into the underground air raid shelter.
After walking into the underground air-raid shelter, Zhu Huihui was immediately shocked by the situation inside.
I saw that the originally spacious underground air-raid shelter was now crowded with people, and there were crowds of people everywhere. There were thousands of people crowded into the underground air-raid shelter, so that the situation inside seemed very bad.
Zhu Huihui controlled the clay black cat to continue deeper, and then walked around in the underground air-raid shelter, and then walked out quietly, without attracting anyone's attention during the whole process.
"Brother Meng, the situation inside is as you guessed. Originally there were hundreds of people in Baishi Camp. Now with the people brought here by Chen Hu, the underground air-raid shelter inside can be said to be very crowded."
"I just let the clay black cat walk around inside, and I heard a lot of complaints. The people inside are very tired of the current environment." Zhu Huihui said.
really!
Meng Ren had a smile on his face, he knew it would be like this.
In a short period of time, Meng Ren fell into deep thought, thinking about what he should do next to successfully achieve his goal.
The result of the previous discussions between several people was very simple, that is, they reached a settlement with Chen Hu, and neither party provoked the other.
But it is not easy to get Chen Hu to retreat.
Chen Hu is a proud and arrogant person, and he is not someone who compromises easily.
If Chen Hu is unwilling to compromise, then he can only be forced to compromise.
Meng Ren once again asked Zhu Huihui to control the clay black cat to go into the underground air raid shelter to check the situation. Unfortunately, although the clay black cat could clearly see the structure and personnel inside the underground air raid shelter, it turned around several times and failed to find Chen Hu and other core personnel.
Obviously, either Chen Hu and other core personnel are in rooms deep in the underground air raid shelter, or they are not here at all.
According to Meng Ren's previous plan, Ding Liang must die, but if Ding Liang's figure cannot be found, then killing Ding Liang will naturally become nonsense.
While Meng Ren and Zhu Huihui were looking for Chen Hu and the others outside, Chen Hu and Ding Liang were suddenly in the room deep in the underground air raid shelter. In addition to the two of them, there was another person in the room. A middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses.
The middle-aged man looked gentle and gentle. He was holding a stack of documents in his hand and had a solemn expression on his face.
"Boss Chen, everyone is in a very serious mood right now. The area of this underground air raid shelter is still too small. We have a total of 1,500 people in our camp. They are all crowded here and there is no room for them!"
"Besides, the fire yesterday also burned a lot of supplies, and the supplies we have are starting to become a little scarce!" Zhou Fei said in a low tone.
Chen Hu's face was gloomy, and he looked at Zhou Fei: "How long can our supplies last at present?"
"Seven days!" Zhou Fei gave a number.
Chen Hu heard this, he did not speak again, but tapped the table unconsciously, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a moment, Chen Hu said: "From now on, everyone's rations will be reduced by half!"
"In this way, we can last for fourteen days."
Zhou Fei nodded, but he still said: "But this method is just a drop in the bucket. If we can't find a sustainable source of supplies, the supplies will still be consumed after fourteen days."
"There are too many people in the camp now. I suggest cutting some people and reducing the number of people to less than one thousand!"
This sentence made Chen Hu look thoughtful. He was silent and didn't know what he was thinking.
Zhou Fei's words did make some sense. The number of people in the camp was indeed too bloated.
In order to expand the camp before, he recruited people crazily. As long as someone joined, he basically accepted everyone.
Now it seems that the original decision was indeed a bit too reckless. Although this approach of accepting everyone has rapidly expanded the size of the camp, the amount of supplies consumed every day is also a huge number.
