Chapter 374: abandoned farm

?Lin Rui and others strolled around Durhamo for a few laps, but at first they didn't find anything unusual. Like many small North African towns, it's dirty, noisy, and full of instability. Black children running around the streets, armed men with guns.

The streets are muddy, and there are often locals walking by with cows. That cow is as thin as a human being.

But they found something unusual, a deserted farm east of town that even the local blacks rarely went to. The walls are all nailed with simple wooden boards, some of which have long been mottled and decayed, and the grass is almost half the height of a person. But right next to such a barren farm, a group of militants gathered.

Lin Rui carefully did not approach there, but checked it from a distance. On the road leading to the farm, he found some tire marks. The climate here is dry, it rarely rains, and tire marks on passing vehicles are often preserved.

Lin Rui frowned when he touched it with his hand. This is the tire mark of a large truck, and the mark is very deep. It is definitely not something that ordinary farm vehicles can press. He thought about it for a while, and felt that he should not approach it easily so as not to disturb the people in the farm.

Back at the round location, Lin Rui discussed it with Jiangan, Wang Haoze and others. They all felt that there was nothing suspicious about the farm except the farm.

So Jiangan found a local person and wanted to ask about the situation. But as soon as the locals saw their appearance, they closed their mouths tightly and didn't open their mouths no matter how much they asked. Later, he was a more daring local black man. After receiving ten dollars from Jiang'an, he told them something. Generally speaking, there is a group of armed men stationed there, and the number is not large, at least a few hundred people.

Because the place is close to the border, these armed men come and go frequently, and it looks like a makeshift camp is established there.

"No one cares about them in this place," Wang Haoze said strangely.

"No one should dare to control it. Durhamo is a small place, with three cities in total. The so-called autonomy means that a few local influential clan armed forces are maintaining some security or something. Just relying on those people, can I can't stop the secret society." Lin Rui shook his head.

"However, what are they doing hiding in a backcountry farm?" Jiangan frowned.

"I don't know, but the location of the farm should be the land of the Duchess of Fililand. They should be planning something there. But if this land is developed, people from Exxon Mobil Oil Company will come in and plan. Mining, construction of oil wells and pipelines, etc. No matter what the people in the secret society are going to do there, they will not be able to do it." Lin Rui sighed and said, "I think this is the real purpose of their kidnapping."

"Then why do they ask for ransom again?" Wang Haoze frowned, "This is unreasonable, why didn't they just kill Duchess Feililan?"

"You are stupid, these European nobles all have heirs. Especially for nobles with high titles, when they are alive, there are several successors in the line. When Duchess Feililan dies, immediately Someone will inherit her title and land. They have no use killing the Duchess, and they will get into big trouble." Jiangan shook his head.

“So they used the kidnapping to negotiate with the Exxon Mobil guys to make them think it was a simple kidnapping. Then they evacuated secretly as they talked. I found traces of a truck on the outside of the farm. , indicating that they are trying to transport something out. I think this is their purpose." Lin Rui whispered.

"You're saying that the farm is one of their bases, and there's something important hidden in it. And the Duchess of Ferryland and Exxon Mobil oil development project jeopardizes that. So to cover up this The base, and they had enough time to transfer the supplies, they kidnapped the Duchess" Wang Haoze said in disbelief, "What are they hiding? It's so important."

"I don't know either, but I'll figure it out soon." Lin Rui glanced at his watch and said, "I've surveyed the perimeter several times. Although the area is heavily guarded, there are still some opportunities to take advantage of it at night. Let's go and see the situation together."

Kishi nodded, "Yes, they just made a ransom demand on Exxon Mobil Oil Company, they must not have expected us to come to the door so soon. This place is rarely visited during the day, and it is quieter at night. Long-term On duty in such an environment, the guards will be somewhat slack."

"I'm still a little worried. After all, we don't know where the hostages are yet. Would it be too risky for us to go in like this?" Wang Haoze frowned.

"Yeah, it's very risky. But we have no other better way at the moment." Lin Rui sighed, "If we don't go in and find out, we will never know where the hostages are, and our time is running out. We only have five days to get rid of today. And I suspect they won't simply give people a ransom then. Maybe they will actually get rid of Duchess Feililand and then naturally put the blame on someone local Clan armed. This is what the Secret Society has always done."

Jiangishi nodded and said that ~www.wuxiahere.com~ is very likely, that's why they set the ransom so low. It feels like they're just some local militants who haven't seen much of the world. In this way, ExxonMobil will have patience to talk to them there. And they will have plenty of time to remove the items within that base. "

"If they have to get rid of Duchess Feililan after this is done, they must have found a scapegoat. Everything is under their control." Wang Haoze thought for a while.

"That's right, that's it." Lin Rui smiled, "Unfortunately, everything is not in their control, at least they ignored our existence. At present, they don't know that we are here. This is our chance. If we can find information about the Duchess and the other hostages inside, then we'll have plenty of time to organize a rescue."

"What if it fails?" Wang Haoze hesitated.

"In case of failure, not only the hostages, but the three of us will die." Lin Rui sighed and said, "No matter what the people of the secret society hide here, it must be a great secret. They No one who knows this will be allowed to leave alive. So we have to act very carefully tonight. Once they are alerted, it's all over."
