From the small town called Delicari to the House of Sin, it was less than 100 kilometers away.
The four of them bought some daily necessities and began the next day's journey.
In the morning, their journey was smooth.
However, as the Jeep left the controlled area of Morocco, they realized that it would be much more difficult to reach the House of Sin than they had imagined.
There were more and more vehicles on the road, and most of them were Jeeps with the characteristics of local armed forces.
In the cars, there were often a large group of locals with guns in their arms. Their eyes were ferocious and unsettling.
As they moved forward, there were more and more checkpoints set up by the local armed forces. Among them, there were two checkpoints that stopped Zhao Yu's car and conducted an interrogation.
Fortunately, Reina knew how to do this, so she managed to get away with two US dollars.
However, they did not have any local travel documents, and it was obvious that they were not locals. If they continued like this, they would run into trouble sooner or later.
After much consideration, they found a small desert town about 30 kilometers away from the House of Sin and stopped to inquire about the situation.
The town didn't have a name. It was made up of simple and crude mud houses. At first glance, one could tell that it was rather backward.
There was a lot of garbage in front and behind the houses, and many children in ragged clothes were playing in the garbage.
Soon, Reina and Armelora found out about the House of Sin from the residents there. They did not expect the situation to be more serious than they had imagined.
It turned out that there was only one desert road that led to the House of Sin. However, because of the special nature of the House of Sin, the road was filled with checkpoints, and only people with special approval could pass through.
What was worse was that, due to the increasing number of important prisoners being held in the House of Sin, the place had become a military controlled area. The inside and outside of the prison were strictly militarized, and strangers were not allowed to get close.
In other words, it was very difficult for Zhao Yu and the others to even get close to the House of Sin, let alone hack into the prison network to search for information.
As such, the situation had undoubtedly become more serious.
If they wanted to continue to complete the mission, they would have to take a huge risk.
"Here …" Reina opened the map on her phone and said to everyone, "We can go through the desert and set up camp near the House of Sin. Then, we can find a way to sneak in and search for information."
"But …" Armelora said. "The desert here is full of quicksand, which is different from other places. Our car can't drive in!"
"Then we'll walk …" Ding Lan suggested. "Anyway, we have less than 20 kilometers left."
"No, this is the Sahara!" Reina said cautiously. "We have to bring so much equipment, we can't go in on foot!
"But I've already thought about it." Reina changed the topic. "We can rent a few camels from the locals. That's the only means of transportation we can use!"
"Camel?" Zhao Yu was curious.
"Then …" Ding Lan pondered for a moment and nodded, "Okay, I agree. From the current situation, this is the only way for us!"
"But …" Armelora warned, "We can't get too close to the prison, because there will definitely be patrols around the prison!"
"I'm not worried about that …" Reina said. "You two are Asian, after all. Once you're caught by the patrol, we'll pretend to be lost tourists!
"What the locals lack the most is money. Just like when we passed the checkpoint, we only need to pay a small tip!"
"Okay …" Armelora nodded. "I agree!"
Since all three beauties agreed, Zhao Yu had no reason to refuse. So, Reina immediately took Zhao Yu's money and went to discuss with Armelora about renting the camels.
"Zhao Yu …" Ding Lan took the opportunity to come to Zhao Yu and said to him, "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, how did you get through last night? Did you solve it with your hands? "
"Pfft … Is this what a sister-in-law should say?" Zhao Yu glared at Ding Lan, then said seriously, "With your brother-in-law's willpower, how could he give up his principles for three women?
"To tell you the truth, I saw you guys having fun yesterday, so I deliberately cooperated with you!
As soon as I went back to the house yesterday, I locked the door and went to sleep! "
"Really?" Ding Lan, of course, didn't believe him. She immediately crossed her arms and said, "But to tell you the truth, brother-in-law. These two women are very cunning. I really hope that you can push them down and settle it properly! " I promise I won't tell Sister Miao Ying! "
"Go to hell!" Zhao Yu said, unmoved. "It's not that easy to do. Oh no, who doesn't want to do it? Oh no, who doesn't want to do it?
"I have a fiancée. How can I do it?"
"Well, whatever you want!" Ding Lan put down her arms and said carefully, "By the way, I've contacted Officer Li Jing and told her what happened to us!
"I didn't expect her to trust you so much. She even approved our action and asked us to report to her immediately once we found out anything about my godfather's disappearance."
"Haha, of course Li Jing trusts me," Zhao Yu said with a proud smile. "No matter what task I completed in the past, I never let her down!"
"They will send someone to mediate in Morocco," Ding Lan said. "Maybe the situation is not as serious as we thought.
So, let's focus all our energy on that desert prison! "
"Um …" Zhao Yu nodded, but he still had an uneasy thought. He felt that he had overlooked something important.
"Hey, Ding Lan." At this time, Reina suddenly waved at Ding Lan from afar. "Come here and have a look. There is a good headscarf here …"
"Okay …" Ding Lan answered and immediately ran over.
Phew …
Zhao Yu took a breath and began to think about the case according to his previous train of thought.
Unexpectedly, at that moment, a few local children ran over and began to chase and play around the car.
Zhao Yu was worried that they would touch the things in the jeep, so he returned to the jeep and looked after the items.
However, as they were chasing, one of the boys holding a small medicine bottle suddenly fell down. The bottle cap broke, and a large number of small black insects spilled out.
The insects were a little bigger than ants, but they looked very uncomfortable.
As soon as the boy saw the insects crawling out, he quickly reached out to grab the medicine bottle.
"Um …" Zhao Yu had never seen this kind of insect before. He immediately squatted down curiously, adjusted the simultaneous translator to Arabic mode, and asked the little boy, "What kind of insect is this? Why are you carrying such an ugly thing? "
"This is a desert flea." The little boy answered Zhao Yu's question while carefully picking up the insects. "We use it for a competition …"
"A competition?" Zhao Yu frowned. "Which flea can jump higher?"
"It can't jump, it can only crawl!" The little boy said to Zhao Yu with a silly smile. "We dig a maze on the ground and see whose flea can crawl out the fastest!"
"Oh …" Zhao Yu nodded slightly, but his eyes were full of evil light.
