Chapter 1070 Abandoned Car
"Of course not, you must have come in after I did, right?"
Li Pei countered with a question.
His question stumped Zhan Wei.
Su Chen also had his doubts.
If he remembers correctly, Suzaku began gathering people and starting the exploration after discovering the Purple Mountain Secret Realm.
Before them, Suzaku hadn't sent anyone.
Could it be that Li Pei and his group have suspicious identities?
"Brother Li, are you actually a member of Suzaku?"
Zhan Wei stared warily at Li Pei.
"Dude, are you kidding me?"
Li Pei's tone was somewhat dissatisfied.
"I joined Suzaku in 19..."
He recounted his experiences in great detail.
Upon hearing this, Zhan Wei's initial doubts were dispelled.
If Li Pei weren't a core member of the Vermilion Bird Clan, he wouldn't have known so many inside stories!
Is there something else going on here?
"Brother Li, don't be angry. It's just that this place is a bit strange."
Zhan Wei explained with a forced smile,
"How about this, I'll contact Commander Wu and tell him."
"OK, no problem!"
Li Pei readily agreed.
Zhan Wei picked up the walkie-talkie, walked to the side, and began to contact Wu Zheng.
Taking this opportunity, Su Chen walked over to another team of superhumans.
"Hey bro, got a light?"
"some."
One of the older men handed over a lighter.
After lighting it, Su Chen smiled and said,
"What's your name, bro?"
"Just call me Shao Bing, we're both from Ningxi."
"Oh, so you're from Ningxi!"
Su Chen called out to Peng Yu, who was not far away.
"Peng Yu, come here for a second!"
"What's wrong, Boss Su?"
Peng Yu came running over excitedly.
"They are all from Ningxi, and they are your fellow townsmen."
Su Chen chuckled.
"Brother Shao, this is Peng Yu, the leader of the Ningxi Canglong Gang."
Upon hearing Peng Yu's name, Shao Bing was deeply moved and quickly extended his hand.
"I didn't expect you to be Boss Peng! It's a pleasure to meet you!"
Peng Yu nodded, feigning modesty, and shook hands with him.
Su Chen was somewhat surprised.
I never expected that Peng Yu would be so timid and submissive in front of me, but so impressive in front of outsiders.
"By the way, Brother Shao, how did you get here?"
Su Chen asked curiously.
"Boss Su may not know the situation, but Boss Peng probably does."
Shao Bing smiled wryly.
"The raw stone mines in Ningxi Province have been divided up by various gangs."
"There are only two ways to obtain the raw gem."
"Either you join one of the gangs, or you have to take them over."
"Our strength is insufficient, so we have no choice but to leave Ningxi Province and search for raw stones elsewhere."
"Just as we arrived at Zishan, it was getting dark, and we noticed the entrance to the secret realm on the mountain."
So he parked the car on the side of the road...
Upon hearing this, Su Chen's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly interrupted Shao Bing.
"Wait a minute, those cars you're talking about, are they Volkswagens and Jeeps...?"
"You saw our car?"
Shao Bing said with some surprise.
"Yes, it was parked right by the roadside."
Su Chen nodded.
"That's right."
Shao Bing laughed.
"Then, as soon as we entered the secret realm, we met Captain Li over there, and then we met you all."
"what?"
Peng Yu opened his mouth, about to say something, but then saw Su Chen wink at him.
He obediently shut his mouth.
Just then, Zhan Wei on the other side finished communicating with Wu Zheng.
He walked back with a smile.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, Brother Li."
"Commander Wu said we'll meet in the town center later and have a proper chat with you all."
"That's good."
Li Pei was finally relieved.
"Speaking of which, how long have you guys been here, Brother Li?"
Su Chen suddenly asked.
"Just came in, three or four hours ago, what's wrong?"
Li Pei said casually.
"It's okay, just ask."
Su Chen remained silent.
"Then let's work together, Brother Li?"
Zhan Wei asked tentatively.
"OK, no problem."
Li Pei readily agreed.
"This secret realm is quite strange. Let's travel together so we can look out for each other."
After chatting for a few minutes, the group got back to work.
Compared to before, Su Chen's team has grown considerably.
As they continued their house-to-house search, Su Chen called Zhan Wei to his side.
"Old Wei, something's not right."
Zhan Wei's expression was serious as he spoke in a low voice.
"Boss Su, I also feel something's not right."
"Commander Wu said he doesn't know Li Pei at all!"
"There's no one named Li Pei in the combat unit!"
Upon hearing this, Su Chen was immediately startled.
He couldn't help but glance in Li Pei's direction!
"Do you remember those cars we found by the roadside when we came here?"
"Those cars belong to Shao Bing and his men."
Zhan Wei said somewhat strangely,
"So what?"
Su Chen took a deep breath and said, word by word,
"Shao Bing said they've only been here for an hour or two!"
"This...how is this possible?"
Zhan Wei was speechless.
Judging from the extent of the damage to those vehicles, they must have been parked there for at least half a month!
"Something's not right here, it's very strange!"
Su Chen's expression was solemn, but his mind was in a mess.
First of all.
Li Pei and Shao Bing's demeanor and tone didn't seem like they were lying at all.
Especially Li Pei.
If he is lying, then everything will be exposed when he meets Wu Zheng later.
How did he have the confidence to meet Wu Zheng?
"Should we strike first?"
Zhong Yage lowered her voice.
"No, don't forget, whoever makes a move will be eliminated."
Su Chen quickly shook his head.
He pondered for a moment, then looked at Peng Yu.
"When you were talking to Shao Bing, did you notice any loopholes in what he said?"
Upon learning that Shao Bing claimed to be from Ningxi, Su Chen immediately summoned Peng Yu.
The purpose was to have Peng Yu determine whether Shao Bing was lying.
“There are no loopholes; his identity is genuine.”
Peng Yu nodded.
The Azure Dragon Gang was a powerful force in Ningxi, and Peng Yu had heard of the organization that Shao Bing belonged to.
"That's strange..."
With all the information tangled together, Su Chen felt a headache coming on.
"Forget it, Boss Su, don't think about it too much."
Seeing that he looked pained, Zhong Yage quickly comforted him.
"Won't everything become clear once we meet Commander Wu?"
"That's right, you're right. Once we meet Wu Zheng, the truth will come out."
Su Chen shook his head, no longer wasting his brain cells thinking.
The group then searched the houses as they approached the town center.
With the addition of Li Pei, Shao Bing, and others, Su Chen's team became much faster.
They finally reached the center of town before nightfall.
