Chapter 1558: The Whole Team Disappears
"Ah! I slept so well!"
Stretching comfortably, Lin Tian climbed up from the bed.
As usual, he first went to the office to receive the mission, and then led the team out of the city to be on duty.
The past two days have been peaceful, and we haven't encountered any surprise attacks from foreign races.
Li Chong found an opportunity to meet Lin Tian and Xia Hou Qingyi alone.
His mission had been completed. Although he wanted to stay here to help, he had no choice but to stay away due to Lin Tian's insistence.
After all, with his status as he came here, if he stayed here, it would be very detrimental to Lin Tian and his team's investigation work.
Only by making those who are behind the scenes lose their guard will they become more unscrupulous so that they can be brought to justice.
There is nothing new in the past two days, except that the size of the camp has further expanded, and new soldiers are being sent in a steady stream.
Because of the increase in recruits, the number of squads has become larger.
It is said that in a while, after all the recruits have passed the adaptation period, several more squadron leaders will be promoted based on various assessments.
Until the third day, because today was on duty at night, after Lin Tian led the team to train in the morning, everyone gathered in the camp to rest.
Lin Tian was sitting on the bed chatting with Tian Xin. When no one was paying attention, he put a hand on Tian Xin's butt and rubbed it gently.
While he was touching it, the tent was suddenly opened in a panic.
Tian Xin hurriedly slapped Lin Tian's big hand on his butt, and Lin Tian quickly jumped off the bed.
The person who rushed in was Su Yanxue. She was sweating profusely as she ran. It was obviously an emergency, otherwise she would not be so careless about her image.
Su Yanxue glanced around the camp, looked at Lin Tian and shouted: "Quick! Gather the team immediately, something happened at the reservoir, we have to rush over now to provide support!"
After everyone heard her words, they hurriedly arranged their clothes and equipment, and they all rushed out consciously without Lin Tian's greeting.
Tian Xin also rushed out in a hurry, her face flushed when she passed by Su Yanxue.
Su Yanxue did not leave just now.
Standing at the door and taking a deep look at Lin Tian, it was obvious that she had seen all the intimate actions with Tian Xin just now.
Lin Tian seemed a little embarrassed. When he passed the door, he smiled sarcastically at Su Yanxue, but Su Yanxue snorted and left.
By the time Lin Tian went out, the team had already assembled, and everyone was fully armed and ready to go according to the battle instructions.
Outside, all the teams that were still in the camp today and were not on missions have come out.
Several military trucks were already waiting outside the camp, and in order, the soldiers from each team climbed up one after another.
"Get in the car! Move faster!"
Song Zhiming, who was neatly dressed, shouted loudly from the side of the car, while Su Yanxue and Jiang Hao were watching from the side.
Although she was promoted to squadron leader and was in charge of several teams, Su Yanxue was obviously more accustomed to being with her original people.
After everyone got on the bus, she climbed up to Lin Tian and sat down. She announced to the soldiers in the car who still didn't know what was going on:
"Everyone knows that the top priority of the reservoir is more important than some of the farmland guarded outside, so the two teams always patrol together."
"The two teams patrolled as usual last night, but in the morning it was discovered that the entire team of the Sixth Team was inexplicably missing. The Seventh Team on the scene did not find any signs of alien attacks, so we have to go search for them now!"
"Inexplicably lost? This is not a deep mountain forest, how can one get lost..."
Lin Tian frowned instinctively. The sixth team that disappeared happened to be a direct descendant of Song Zhiming.
He subconsciously turned his head and looked behind him, and saw the one-eyed Song Zheng sitting in the co-pilot of a military vehicle. His straight military uniform had not been ironed with a single crease, and he looked energetic.
But his cheek with only one eye seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, looking very depressed and cold.
Several military trucks rumbled away from the camp. Lin Tian originally thought that the convoy would drive directly out of the city, but unexpectedly, it plunged into two underground tunnels above the main square that were heavily guarded at all times.
Lin Tian discovered these two tunnels when they first arrived. They were used for emergency evacuation, but Lin Tian really didn't know where they led to.
The tunnel is not too wide, nor is it too elaborate. Everything is mainly practical, but the road surface is flat and the interior looks very solid.
After entering the tunnel, Lin Tiancai discovered that there were several checkpoints guarded by heavy machine guns inside the tunnel, apparently to guard against attacks by aliens.
Moving forward at full speed, it didn't take long for the convoy to exit the tunnel.
At the end of the tunnel, sentries and checkpoints were also set up. Looking at the opponent's military uniform number, the tunnel was guarded by the city defense brigade.
After exiting the tunnel, the convoy continued to move forward and entered the forest road.
After passing through several more twists and turns, the convoy finally stopped.
Lin Tian looked around curiously and saw a sign for Fengcheng Reservoir hanging at the entrance.
At the same time, the area was surrounded by defensive facilities such as wire.
Song Zhiming was the first to jump out of the car. Because it was his team that disappeared, and he was the most senior among the three squadron leaders, he took the lead in the search.
Following Song Zhiming's order, the soldiers jumped out of the car in unison and rushed into the entrance of the reservoir in order of the team.
After walking a short distance, the team soon came to a forest. Not far away was a rippling reservoir, surrounded by a circle of hills.
At first, Lin Tian didn't quite understand what this place was used for. You know, Fengcheng has a lot of groundwater resources.
The groundwater is clean and there is no need to worry about foreigners poisoning it. It is enough for the basic life of the residents.
But soon he found that there were many fish rafts on the water surface. This was obviously an aquaculture farm.
The water source here not only needs to provide irrigation for farmland everywhere, but also is the main place for fish farming in Fengcheng. No wonder two teams are needed to guard it together.
"Captain Song..."
A team of soldiers came up from the direction of the reservoir in a hurry. As soon as they met, the one-eyed Song stepped forward and tore off the shoulder straps of the leader, and angrily cursed:
"What are you doing in your team! A whole team, a full thirty living people were lost and it was not discovered until the morning!"
"Don't do it as a captain. After the search is completed, go back and take off your military uniform and accept the punishment!"
The captain looked sad and helpless at the furious Song Zhiming, and said a little aggrieved:
"Actually... it's really none of our business. You know, our two teams patrol around the reservoir."
"We only meet every few hours."
"As a result, we patrolled as usual last night, but we didn't find anything unusual, and we didn't hear any movement. It was almost dawn when we realized that we didn't encounter them."
"We called and searched quickly at that time, and notified the camp when we didn't find them..."
