Seeing that they were almost ready, Locke found the map that Jin Kunping had given them in the afternoon, and used a red pen to mark the location of Fan Shuanghu's sentry for Chen Yuanyuan.
There are six outposts on the oval-shaped islands, and Locke plans to reach the island by snorkeling.
Although when the tide recedes, a road will be exposed to walk towards the islands, and today the water level is not high enough to make the transition through the water, Kim Khun Ping arranged for the members of Group C to wade across.
But there happened to be a sentry guarding that position. If you had to sink your whole body in the water and have to sneak slowly, it would be better to swim over.
"Can you swim? It's about 150 meters from here." Locke drew another route and landed on the island from the southeast from the back beach.
"Okay." Although the sea water is freezing cold now, the short distance of 150 meters is not a big problem.
Locke found two sets of snorkeling clothes and equipment on the equipment boat. After the two took turns changing in the bathroom, they put the other equipment into waterproof bags.
After getting dressed, the two of them walked outside. Although they were insulated winter wetsuits, they still felt quite cold in the sub-zero temperature as if they were not wearing anything.
Locke asked someone to take them to the starting point. After the two got on the electric tricycle, Locke gave Chen Yuanyuan various precautions when going into the water late at night in winter.
"Where were you hiding just now? I almost opened the toilet seat." Seeing Chen Yuanyuan's serious look, he was afraid that she would be too nervous, so he immediately changed the subject.
"Hey, do you want to know?" Chen Yuanyuan said to whet his appetite.
"Say it, say it!" Locke said.
"I'll tell you as soon as I give you the jade relic, hahaha." Chen Yuanyuan joked.
"Oh, you have a beautiful idea!" Locke also said with a smile.
Although Locke seems carefree, he is actually quite outgoing and quite reliable when going on missions. He has taken many newcomers as partners in the past, so Shen Yichen felt confident that Chen Yuanyuan would team up with him.
The two arrived at a group of nearby residential buildings. After the tricycle left, Locke and Chen Yuanyuan did some stretching exercises and then slowly walked towards the beach.
The beach of Cheung Chau was originally a popular tourist spot, but it has long been abandoned after the apocalypse. However, it was more empty than the ordinary back beach, so the two had to keep looking for various shelters to move forward.
When approaching the sea, Locke made a gesture, and Chen Yuanyuan put on the snorkeling mask, began to lean down, and slowly dived into the water.
When Chen Yuanyuan entered the cold and biting sea water, she felt that all the muscles in her body were immediately tense. Fortunately, she had done warm-up exercises before entering the water, otherwise she would definitely get cramps if she went down all of a sudden.
Chen Yuanyuan was afraid that she would be held back, so she took advantage of the water to put the waterproof bag and the materials inside into the space, and then used breaststroke to move forward slowly.
Although Chen Yuanyuan could swim, she was inevitably a little panicked in the dark night. In addition, Xiangcheng had been without power for a long time. There was no reference on the shore to guide the direction, so she could only swim forward according to her feelings.
After entering the water, she saw a bright light on the left front. It turned out that Locke had turned on the diving light. Chen Yuanyuan immediately adjusted her direction and followed Locke.
Due to the cold weather and big waves, the short 150-meter swim took almost five minutes.
After the two landed ashore, a gust of sea breeze blew by, and Chen Yuanyuan, who was wet by the sea water, shivered with cold.
"There is a pile of debris over there. You can hide behind and change clothes. I'll change here and keep an eye on the wind." Locke pointed to a bunch of branches and debris that had been washed ashore by the waves.
"Okay." After Chen Yuanyuan responded, she hurried behind the debris pile, then flashed into the space and put on the night tactical suit in the waterproof bag. Then she put the wetsuit in the bag and returned to the beach.
Locke put his and Chen Yuanyuan's diving suits on the debris and slightly covered them with sand, then moved to the left with Chen Yuanyuan.
According to the strategy the two of them had just formulated, they would first deal with the sentinels on the south side of Group C, and then turn back to deal with the ones to the east and those near the north of Group A.
There is no need to spend time solving the one on the west side, just leave him to report to Fan Shuanghu and attract firepower to Group D.
The two entered the jungle on the beach and headed towards the target under the cover of night. After a while, they saw a little light in the darkness.
Two people wearing heavy cotton jackets from head to toe were sitting in front of the bonfire, with a beach umbrella planted on the ground to protect them from the wind. Little did they know that Chen Yuanyuan and Locke were coming quietly behind them.
"It's so dark, do you want to put out the fire? The boss said you can't make a fire." The short man said.
"If you don't tell me, who knows? It's so cold that you can't even light a fire. Isn't it freezing?" the tall man scolded.
"But" the short man said.
"Keep an eye on it. If something goes wrong, the boss will blame you. Don't think about a good life. I'll go and relieve myself." After that, the tall man got up and walked into the bushes.
Locke and Chen Yuanyuan immediately lowered their bodies. When the man started to relieve himself, Locke signaled Chen Yuanyuan to stand by and observe, and he stepped forward.
Locke's steps were fast and light, and he quickly moved behind the tall man under the cover of the sound of the waves.
"Come and forget about wrongs and right, come and remember the past. It was always fun to go through the hard times together." The tall man was still humming, not noticing Locke's approach at all.
Locke didn't hesitate, picked up a pen from his pocket and inserted it into the tall man's carotid artery.
"Ah uh." Before the tall man screamed, Locke covered his mouth and collapsed to the ground in about ten seconds.
"Brother Ant, what's wrong with you?" The short man stood up and shouted loudly when the tall man shouted.
"Don't make any noise, I've cut my shit." Locke's voice changed and he immediately imitated a man's voice and said,
Chen Yuanyuan's eyes widened when she heard that they were really similar.
Seeing a response, the short man continued to squat on the beach and keep vigil.
After Chen Yuanyuan gave Locke a thumbs up, she was about to deal with the short man.
Locke made a gesture like blowing up a balloon. Chen Yuanyuan understood immediately, so she took out a blow needle and aimed it at the man's squatting buttocks and blew it.
"What is it, a bee? Why is it so late at night?" The short man fell down mid-sentence.
Chen Yuanyuan and Locke immediately stepped forward to check and saw that the short man's face was purple and he had expired.
"Be careful about assassinations. If you can avoid showing up, don't show up. Choose the fastest and most reliable way to act. Just like a man in the woods, there are too many obstructions. In addition, it takes a certain amount of time for the poisonous needle to take effect. Just choose arterial injection." Locke showed Chen Yuanyuan the pen in his hand.
It turns out that the ink in the pen is highly poisonous. Even a lick will kill you within a minute, but the effect of piercing a major artery is faster.
"You were so awesome just now. After listening to a few words, you were able to imitate his voice and tone of voice." Chen Yuanyuan praised.
"There is something even more powerful, do you want to hear it?" Locke smiled.
Chen Yuanyuan nodded, and the two of them walked to the next sentry point. Locke imitated the voices of different people, making Chen Yuanyuan almost laugh.
