Chapter 272 202: Earth-Shattering Betrayal
At the entrance of the Tiger Base in the Rust Wall District, a security patrol car came to a stop.
A man and a woman got out of the car, the man tall, the woman short; they were Chu Nanyi and Dongdong.
They wore incredibly realistic disguise masks on their faces and were dressed in sheriff's uniforms.
The security guard from Tiger Base walked out of the sentry box and asked, "What brings you two officers here?"
Chu Nanyi replied calmly, "We're from the Rust Wall District security branch conducting a security check on the surrounding area, let us through."
"Oh..." The security guard looked at the two, his gaze settling on Dongdong's face.
He thought to himself: So short, looks like a kid, is that really a sheriff?
He said, "Officers, please wait a moment, I'll call my superior."
He took out his phone, dialed Ou Chenyu's number: "Hello, Captain, we have two sheriffs here at the park saying they want to conduct a security check. What should I say to them?"
The security guard muttered "Uh-huh" a few times and then hung up the phone.
He looked at Chu Nanyi and Dongdong, asking somewhat skeptically, "Could you two please show me your IDs first?"
"Sure, here are our IDs and the search warrant." Chu Nanyi and Dongdong handed over the items.
The security guard opened them and inspected carefully.
From the texture and the anti-counterfeiting watermark, they didn't look fake.
However, the captain said to triple-check, so the security guard said politely, "Sorry, officers, there have been many suspicious individuals around here recently. Please don't mind if I make a call to the Bureau; once your identity is confirmed, I'll let you through immediately."
Dongdong immediately pulled out a baton and pointed it at his nose, cursing wildly: "You son of a bitch! Do you have to make it this difficult?! I'm showing you respect, got it?!"
The security guard was so frightened that he flinched.
This manner of speaking fits perfectly!
Without a doubt, these are genuine New Moon City sheriffs!
He hunched over and kept apologizing, "Officers, it's just that the management requires it, I'm just a worker following orders, please understand..."
Chu Nanyi said impatiently, "Hurry up, if you keep dawdling, I'll have you locked up for half a month!"
"Right away, right away..." The security guard hastily dialed the Rust Wall District security branch number.
He looked at the IDs in his hand, saying, "Hello, yes, I'm a security guard at the Tiger Teeth Industrial Park."
"We have two sheriffs here, the male is about 1.8 meters tall, named Li Lei. The female is under 1.5 meters, named Han Meimei. Security numbers are PS05829 and PS10094. Are they yours?"
The dispatcher at the Public Security Bureau replied, "Hello, Li Lei and Han Meimei are the sheriffs we deployed. As requested by the Municipal Center headquarters, our bureau will conduct a security check around surrounding areas, please cooperate and let them through."
"Okay, okay, I understand." The security guard hung up and respectfully said to them, "Officers, I apologize, please go on in."
Chu Nanyi and Dongdong swaggered into the park, their figures gradually vanishing into the night.
The security guard breathed a sigh of relief and returned to his sentry box to continue his duty.
The night was as dark as ink, and this small security guard had no idea that high above, an invisible reconnaissance drone was circling through the clouds.
If he could see the images being transmitted back from the drone, he would notice that with the Tiger Base at the center, all the residents on the nearby streets had already been evacuated secretly.
More than a thousand fully armed sheriffs were scattered, lurking in the shadows like predators waiting for their prey, completely surrounding the entire Tiger Base, including elite members from the Anti-Violence Fourth Section.
...
Chu Nanyi and Dongdong walked openly inside the Tiger Base.
The mercenaries remaining at the base during the night were few, occasionally casting glances at them, then quietly calling the security to inquire about the situation, and after receiving confirmation, they let them be.
Dongdong tugged at the collar of that sheriff's uniform, chuckling softly, "Back when I was beaten in the bureau, I never imagined one day I'd be wearing this uniform."
Chu Nanyi rubbed his hands together and whispered, "Sister Dong, that uniform looks too sexy! Once we're done here, let's go on a date!"
Dongdong kicked him in the rear, "We're on a mission, keep it serious! If something happens to KK, I'll bust your head open!"
According to the information previously provided by Su Mo, the two pretended to inspect and made their way down to the underground level where KK was being held.
The holding room was at the end of the corridor, with mercenaries guarding the entrance.
This mercenary had received the notice from the security, knowing sheriffs were coming, but didn't expect them to get here.
The mercenary stood and asked, "Officers, what brings you here?..."
Dongdong: "Security check, move aside."
"Oh... oh okay..." The Tiger Teeth mercenary moved aside, looking a bit nervous.
After all, there's someone detained in the room behind him.
Though mercenaries are a kind of underground profession tolerated by authorities, it doesn't mean they can do whatever they want... at least not openly.
Usually, detaining someone quietly isn't a big deal, as long as no one finds out, there's no problem.
But getting caught red-handed during a security check would be a hassle to resolve, probably costing the captain a fortune.
The Tiger Teeth mercenary retreated to a corner, secretly reaching for the communicator at his collar, intending to have Xiaotian You transfer KK from the holding room through a hidden passage.
However, before he could speak, he suddenly felt a shadow coming his way.
The last thing he saw before losing consciousness was Dongdong's fist swooping down on him.
...
Inside the holding room, KK sat on the bed against the wall, the spots on his face swollen from the beatings, like a small pig's head.
As for Xiaotian You, he was indeed meticulous, spending the entire afternoon just sitting on the mat, staring at KK like a human machine.
At this moment, the indicator light on the communicator in front of Xiaotian You flashed briefly and then went out, without transmitting any sounds.
He picked up the communicator and pressed the call button: "What's going on?"
