The quiet Stronghold 31 suddenly became lively. Almost at the same time, countless combatants started converging on Honghu Road.
As it was wartime, the entire stronghold's patrols were on edge. Even the slightest disturbance could cause a huge uproar.
If they discovered the target but failed to apprehend him, the troops in charge of patrolling tonight would probably all be punished.
The off-road vehicles drove through the streets while several mobile troops set up roadblocks on the main traffic routes.
The stronghold residents were startled awake. Many of them did not know what was going on and almost thought the Pyro Company had already attacked Stronghold 31!
The most amazing thing was that some of the stronghold residents ran out of their houses in their long johns before they could figure out what was going on. Then they headed straight for the nearest store to grab some food and daily necessities.
After these stronghold residents came out, they stared at the patrolling troops on the streets downstairs. Then, facing the black muzzles of their guns, they retreated back to their homes.
Ren Xiaosu did not linger. He ran north first and then made a big detour before heading back to the villa district.
At this moment, two members of the Public Order Division were walking in the opposite direction of Honghu Road on a street. One of them said, "I'm sure I saw a shadow flying over my head just now. You didn't believe me even though I told you. Look, now something has happened!"
The other person slapped the back of his head in exasperation. "Aren't you talking nonsense? I saw it too, but I don't want to die!"
The person who spoke earlier was stunned. "What do you mean?"
"It's not like the Public Order Division's salary is as high as the troops'. How can we afford to provoke someone who can fly in the sky?" The person said, "Why don't you think about it? If you shout out and he jumps down to silence us, do you think we'll be able to escape?"
"That seems to be the case …" Halfway through, the person who spoke started trembling. He said in a trembling voice, "Look at that person in front …"
When Ren Xiaosu, who had stopped in his tracks to get his bearings, heard someone talking, he turned around with his hooded face and glanced at the two people. The two of them immediately turned around and walked in the other direction. "Hahaha, it's so dark tonight."
"Yeah, why is it suddenly foggy? I can't see anything …"
Ren Xiaosu glanced at the two of them and measured the distance between them. He was calculating something in his heart.
Tonight's pursuit and escape came out of the blue, but Ren Xiaosu was not flustered.
At this moment, the two people who saw Ren Xiaosu were walking with their backs to Ren Xiaosu. They whispered, "Is he gone? Why don't you turn around and take a look?"
"Why don't you f * cking look back?" The other person said angrily, "What if he's right behind us?"
"Just take a look, it's not like you'll die if you take a look …"
Suddenly, Ren Xiaosu's voice rang out from behind them. "Stop arguing. Why don't you both turn around and take a look?!"
The two of them reacted quickly. When they heard the voice behind them, they planned to run away. But before they could do so, they felt their vision blacking out and they were knocked unconscious to the ground at the same time.
Ren Xiaosu quietly picked up the walkie-talkie the two of them were carrying and said in a pinched voice, "172 Hero Hill Road, a suspicious person has been spotted. I repeat, a suspicious person has been spotted!"
After that, a cacophony of voices came over the walkie-talkie. Meanwhile, Ren Xiaosu quickly climbed up a tall building and looked in the direction of 172 Hero Hill Road in silence.
He was about 400 meters away from Hero Hill Road at this moment. In a street battle, this was considered a very long distance.
The reason Ren Xiaosu did this was to get the best view of how the patrol troops in Stronghold 31 would react.
After the walkie-talkie sounded, the patrol troops in the stronghold quickly assembled. Some of the patrol troops that had been biding their time earlier also set off for Hero Hill Road.
Ren Xiaosu took out his sniper rifle, aimed at an off-road vehicle 600 meters away, and pulled the trigger. The bullet pierced through the air and hit the vehicle's fuel tank. With a loud bang, the entire off-road vehicle was set ablaze by the incendiary bullet.
Ren Xiaosu shouted into the walkie-talkie, "A vehicle has been attacked north of Hero Hill Road. I repeat, a vehicle has been attacked north of Hero Hill Road. The other party is only one person!"
The sound of the vehicle exploding was like a hornet's nest had been lit. Some of the mobile troops hiding in the dark could no longer hold back and moved out in full force.
Meanwhile, the perpetrator, Ren Xiaosu, quietly returned to the villa amidst the flames.
The troops responsible for pursuing and intercepting the murderer could not find any trace of Ren Xiaosu at all. Almost all of them headed for Hero Hill Road.
But just as Ren Xiaosu thought the Kong Clan troops were nothing much, he noticed some of the mobile troops that were still biding their time on the way back. Furthermore, they were all on high alert, and not a single one of them was chatting or smoking.
Fortunately, he was still cautious on his way back. Otherwise, he might have ended up in a battle!
He silently noted down the location of these people in case he failed miserably in the future.
Then Ren Xiaosu sighed in his heart. The Kong Clan troops responsible for guarding Stronghold 31 were definitely elites. It would be even more difficult to rescue more than 200 people from a prison.
However, he still gained something tonight. Ren Xiaosu confirmed there was at least a brigade of troops in Stronghold 31. If he counted the troops hiding in the dark, there might even be more. It might be a reinforced brigade.
Furthermore, he also roughly understood the garrison troops' encirclement and suppression tactics. This could be considered as some preparation for the follow-up operation.
Not long after Ren Xiaosu returned to the villa, something unexpected happened.
Ren Xiaosu saw through the window that it had suddenly lit up outside. Dozens of cars had stopped at the entrance of the villa. Moreover, these people were not in a hurry to knock on the door after they arrived. Instead, they surrounded the entire villa first!
After this incident, everyone in the villa came out of their rooms. Yang Xiaojin quietly looked at Ren Xiaosu. 'Are you being followed?'
Ren Xiaosu shook his head to indicate that it shouldn't be.
Yang Xiaojin stood quietly by the window and looked through the gap in the curtains. She whispered, "It's not the garrison troops. They should be field agents from the intelligence agency. They have a company of troops. If we force our way through, we'll break through from the north. I've confirmed their commander, so we can kill him first before breaking out of the encirclement. "
"Mhm." Ren Xiaosu said, "Once we start fighting, I'll use Old Xu to distract them before breaking out of the encirclement. But let's wait and see first. I think they're just suspecting us. "
In just a few words, the two of them had come up with a battle plan. It was not too detailed because they trusted each other's ability to adapt to the situation.
Honestly, if they were not afraid of the Kong Clan's subsequent reinforcements, the two of them might have decided to kill all of them first.
The troops outside had already surrounded the villa. A young man in a black suit walked up and knocked on the door. Behind him were heavily armed field agents.
