Chapter 1644 - 1644: 1644
As evening approached, the sunset disappeared, and dark clouds began to gather at the horizon.
The wind picked up, and in the entire subtropical rainforest region, trees were swaying and flowers were shaking, as if a heavy rain was imminent.
The changing weather was indeed a characteristic of this place.
However, Liu Zhizhong's helicopter was of excellent performance, and a little heavy rain wasn't a problem. The flight continued, and the mission had to carry on.
Liu Zhizhong even had a strange thought flash through his mind: If someone could unify this place Valbon, establish a kingdom, develop tourism, and advance agricultural cultivation, it could indeed be quite an amazing free world.
But after this thought flashed by, he shook his head. On this 200,000 square kilometers of land, various military factions are intertwined. Everyone wants to be the boss, yet no one can become the boss, and no one is convinced by anyone else. Even though the governments of three countries have carried out no less than a hundred sieges, they still couldn't capture it. The idea of unifying this place was simply out of reach.
People are strange creatures sometimes, with fleeting thoughts that might inadvertently lead to actual events.
Even if you know it won't happen and ignore it, when it does happen, you might start to wonder: do you have a foresight ability?
When the first drop of heavy rain hit the airplane glass, Liu Zhizhong was only about ten minutes away from the target location.
The first drop was followed by a second, then a torrential downpour ensued, accompanied by fierce winds and a terrifying sky.
The winds were stronger at higher altitudes, so Liu Zhizhong quickly lowered the altitude, turned on the spotlight, maintained the correct course, and flew cautiously and carefully.
As he approached the target location, the large searchlight on the helicopter shone ahead towards the ground, leaving him increasingly puzzled.
This was a plain area nestled in a valley, seemingly filled with rice fields, right in the middle of the planting season.
At the foot of the distant mountains, there were some villages with faint lights.
At the edge of the plain were endless banana forests stretching as far as the eye could see.
There were also two relatively fast-flowing rivers running through the banana forests, flowing towards the distant dark mountain forest areas.
The closer he got to the ground, the more uneasy he felt. There were no vehicles or personnel visible, so how could this be the location for handing over the top scamming mastermind?
As the target location drew nearer, directly over the rice fields, Liu Zhizhong felt even more puzzled.
It's impossible to land in the rice fields, right?
At that moment, Liu Zhizhong chose to hover, and quickly used a secret communications channel to contact Fat A and Thin B in Tiandu, and reported the situation.
He received a response that the message from the other side was that the rain was too heavy for the handover, and he was asked to fly to a new target location, just behind the mountain, in the forest at the river's upper stream, with the coordinates to be provided shortly.
Thin B emphasized: The headmaster's identity is uncommon and enjoys uncommon treatment; there's no way he would get into the helicopter in the pouring rain, so the new target location is a large courtyard, a private estate belonging to a prominent warlord. The helicopter can land in the courtyard.
Liu Zhizhong immediately acknowledged the message and then ended the communication.
He muttered to himself: As expected, the collusion between the con artist and the local powers runs deep! And this headmaster, who needs to be handed over, what a fucking privileged person! Even as a prisoner, he can't get wet?
