"This was just an accident, no wonder you." Gao Fei comforted his girlfriend, "It is indeed a pity to let an apostle escape, but arresting Matthias now may alert the 'crocodile' Andre who is also a member of the apostles.
, disrupting our follow-up plans, the gains outweigh the losses.”
"What I'm even more curious about is that Mattia took a helicopter to Pilion Village overnight and didn't bother to meet Andre. After landing, he stayed for less than ten minutes and then flew away. This man came and went in a hurry.
, what is the purpose?”
Tangning frowned slightly and asked a question in the team channel.
"Sister Tang, I don't know about this. Let's wait until you come back." Jiang Feng ended the call.
Full of doubts, Gao Fei, Tang Ning and Pep quickened their pace and returned to the shed to join their teammates.
"Brother Fei! You are finally back!" Qi Tian couldn't wait for a long time. "While Bixi's celebration ceremony is not over yet and there are not many people left in the village, let's go to the dock to have a look. Maybe we will find something new!"
Gao Fei looked at Tangning and Pep and saw that neither of them had any objection, so he led the team straight to the dock and found traces of helicopter takeoffs and landings on the grass by the river.
"When Matthias got off the plane, the four mercenaries behind him were carrying a large box." Ma Yun recalled, "I borrowed Brother Daqing's telescope to take a peek, and I thought the four boxes looked familiar.
For example, portable constant temperature sterilization boxes in hospitals are usually used to store plasma products."
Gao Fei wrote down this detail and then asked: "Where did Matthias and the others go after they got off the helicopter?"
"That's the big house." Ma Tao pointed to the river. "There were four men with spears standing guard outside the door. After Matthias led the people into the house, they stood guard outside. Not long after, Ma Tao
Tia and his party came out and left by helicopter, but the four guards seemed to feel that there was no need to continue to stand guard and left."
"That's a house in the village specially used to hold captives." Pep's face was solemn, "The people used as sacrifices today were originally locked up there."
"I remember there were a total of 40 prisoners, 12 of whom were killed by Andre, and the rest were sent back and still locked in the house... Are they okay?" Tangning asked.
No one answered her question.
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and the moist night wind carries the smell of blood. This is an obvious ominous sign.
Gao Fei looked around and saw that the riverside was quiet in the rainy night, with no one around. He quickly walked across the grass and climbed up the ladder to the shack where the prisoners were kept.
When I pushed the door open and took a look, I couldn't help but cover my nose and frown.
Jiang Feng climbed up immediately and took a look. His face suddenly lost all color. He quickly turned around and waved his hand to stop Ma Yun from coming up.
The room was filled with corpses, and blood soaked the floor and dripped down the gaps.
All 28 prisoners were shot dead. What was even more shocking was that the heads of the deceased were cut off and there was no trace of them.
Gao Fei walked down the stairs and stood by the undulating river, lost in thought.
Ma Tao, Ma Yun, Qi Tian and Wang Daqing could not restrain their curiosity and ignored Jiang Feng's dissuasion. They climbed up the ladder one after another and entered the room to check. When they came out, they all looked ugly.
"The prisoner was shot and killed by Van der Waal's mercenaries." Tangning walked to Gao Fei and said thoughtfully, "Even if the prisoner needs to be executed, Andre can do it himself. This is unreasonable."
"What's even more unreasonable is that all the heads of the corpses are missing." Gao Fei said softly, "Do you still remember the thermostatic boxes in the hands of the mercenaries? Four boxes are enough to hold twenty-eight heads."
"Gao Fei, there is something I forgot to tell you." Jiang Feng came over and said, "When those mercenaries left, they only had guns in their hands, but the boxes were gone. If you want to use boxes to hold heads, why not put the boxes in them?"
take away?"
"Well... since Matthias is here, there is no need to carry the boxes onto the helicopter." Gao Fei guessed, "Matthias can use his super power to directly transport four incubators filled with heads back to
Monastery of the Holy Blood.”
"That makes sense!" Jiang Feng said with a sudden look on his face, "The reason why Mattia came to Pilion Village overnight was probably to send this special 'express delivery'!"
"If the head of the deceased was really teleported away by Matthias, then the question is, what is the purpose of the Holy Blood Knights collecting so many heads?" Gao Fei raised another question.
"Yes, you came all the way here in a helicopter with an incubator, just to hunt for fresh heads?" Tangning murmured to herself, "Peter van der Waal is not an Asmat, so he wouldn't do it.
Do you also have a hobby of collecting human heads?"
"Sister Tang, don't you have an informant within the Holy Blood Knights? You can ask him. Maybe he knows Mattia's intention of traveling to Pilion Village overnight." Ma Tao said.
"That makes sense! I'll write a letter to Judas right now!" As soon as Tangning opened the astrolabe, a sharp whistle came from the other side of the pier.
Gao Fei immediately turned his head and looked over, and saw Pep waving to him from a distance. His face looked very anxious, as if he had made some important discovery.
Everyone ran over quickly.
"Brother Pep, what happened?" Gao Fei asked.
"Look over there." Pep pointed to the river in the distance. "There is a fleet of boats sailing on the river. I'm afraid they have bad intentions!"
Gao Fei looked in the direction of his finger. On the river about two miles away from the dock, there were indeed slender black shadows floating quickly on the river. They seemed to be canoes lined up in a row.
In the rainy night, the stars and moon were dim, and the mangroves near the river blocked the visibility at night. The figures on the boat were blurry, and it was impossible to see the specific numbers and faces.
Wang Daqing raised his telescope and tried to observe.
"There are a total of 31 canoes on the river, and each canoe has about 10 people on it, all of whom are paddling hard..."
"Wait a minute, the boat at the end has only four oarsmen, one of them is sitting still, and there is a lion-like beast beside him."
"Brother Daqing, are you sure that's a lion?" Ma Yun widened her eyes in surprise, "The wild lions on Irian Island have long been extinct!"
"Uh... I'm not sure. It just looks like a lion in shape. Maybe it's another beast."
Wang Daqing only had an ordinary optical telescope in his hand without night vision. In this dark and rainy environment, it was no better than the naked eye and could not see more details.
Tang Ning opened the astrolabe and applied for the magic satellite reconnaissance authority of "Kaiyang Station".
"The server is busy... There are still 12 people in front of you, please wait."
Tang Ning, who has always been polite in conversation, couldn't help but become angry and angry after receiving the reminder, and cursed on the spot.
