The next day, as the sun just rose, the camp began to become lively. Hilton and others began to measure the humidity of the air.
Yu Zhiqian looked sullen: "What's the use of this?"
After Hilton arranged the machinery, he smiled: "Measure the air humidity and compare the data to find out some recent changes in the natural environment in the reserve, whether there is a lack of water, etc. If the data is abnormal, you need to..."
Yu Zhiqian listened in confusion. As expected of a professor who publishes papers in SCI Area 1 every day, I couldn’t understand anything he said. Think about some domestic Ph.D.’s whose papers have a duplication rate of more than 40% and are plagiarized. , I haven’t had a single work in SCI Area 2, and I don’t even know about CNKI, but I have a PhD, which shows how big the gap is.
Taking a deep breath, Yu Zhiqian felt that it would be better for him to simply exercise his body.
After the measurement in the morning, the convoy began to move forward. According to Hilton, it was to pursue a group of wild animals. Some rare animals have GPS on them. After finding them, they will be examined and some blood samples taken to facilitate continued research.
In the distance, about dozens of kilometers away, three white men drove a car and kept looking at the map. A green dot kept flashing on it: "These guys just rested for the night and are about to hit the road. Damn it, Still going in the opposite direction to us!"
"Don't worry, Mike, they can't run away!" The driver of the car whistled while looking at the surrounding scenery. Two hundred thousand U.S. dollars is not much, and the three of them can't even get 70,000 U.S. dollars each. , but I couldn’t bear to say that this task was simple, and it was in no man’s land, so no one could notice it.
There is also a group of black people who have the same purpose as these three people. However, the equipment of this group is much simpler. They have no vehicles and can only walk on foot. Not only do they have to avoid attacks by wild beasts, but they also have to avoid inspections by patrols. However, Their direction is on the path that Yu Zhiqian and others are traveling on. If Yu Zhiqian and others keep moving forward, they may encounter them in two hours.
One of the leading black men held something similar to a GPS in his hand. He kept looking up at the sky and speaking incomprehensible words. Finally, he pointed in a direction and motioned for everyone to follow.
The speed of the convoy is getting slower and slower. The deeper it goes into the protected area, the road becomes worse and worse. In many cases, it cannot even keep up with walking speed. Moreover, the convoy has to stop at any time to check the surrounding soil and so on.
Yu Zhiqian smoked a cigarette and watched these people working. He was glad that he had not studied hard back then. Otherwise, he might have been a Ph.D., after all, the Ph.D. thesis at Peking University was so simple, he would definitely be able to pass it, and he might also be doing this type of work by then. , it may drive you crazy.
At noon, when the motorcade stopped again to rest, Yu Zhiqian keenly noticed that a group of red dots appeared three kilometers away from him, thirty of them in total.
"Is it a herd of antelopes or a herd of horses?" Yu Zhiqian frowned, took out his telescope, stood on the roof of the car, and looked into the distance. With high-power telescopes, he could see very far on the unobstructed plains. But Yu Zhiqian was blocked by trees. (There is a visual distance during the day, so the detection radius is shortened and there will be energy loss)
"Maybe it's an animal group!" After yesterday's experience, Yu Zhiqian knew that this sudden appearance of animal groups is often all kinds of wild animals. This is a wildlife reserve, and there are groups of animals everywhere. , this morning, Yu Zhiqian also discovered a zebra herd consisting of about a hundred zebras.
At noon, they made a fire to cook. After everything was done, nearly half an hour passed. Yu Zhiqian took the rice bowl and came to the car. He continued to observe the surrounding situation and found a small group of thirty animals. , has come within 800 meters of itself.
"Coming for us?" Yu Zhiqian felt that things were not as simple as he imagined. He immediately put down his rice bowl, took out the telescope again, and looked over. The damn woods were still blocking his view. If he walked through After passing the woods, we were less than 300 meters away from Yu Zhiqian and others.
"Tou, what's wrong?"
John asked curiously while eating. Yu Zhiqian pointed to the woods in the distance: "There is an unknown group of about thirty people over there who are thinking about moving in our direction. If it is an animal, it will take half an hour to leave. Less than three kilometers away, something feels wrong!”
"Want me to go over and take a look!"
Yu Zhiqian nodded: "Bring your equipment and be careful. If there is any accident, notify me immediately!"
"yes!"
John immediately put down his lunch, picked up his weapons, put on his bulletproof vest, and walked toward the woods fully armed. Yu Zhiqian was also behind to observe the situation with binoculars, but the woods were very dense, and it was difficult to find out what was going on. What's going on.
"Robert, if anything unexpected happens later, you and the professor and others should immediately retreat to the back and keep the radio open!"
Little Robert had a piece of meat in his mouth. He didn't know what was going on. He could only nod to show that he understood. Yu Zhiqian touched his head and took a deep breath, hoping that he was just a false alarm, but the most important thing in his heart was that he had a piece of meat in his mouth. There will be some bad premonitions.
On the other side, the illegal mercenary team composed of three people was less than 20 kilometers away from Yu Zhiqian and others. The driver turned to look at the boss in the back row: "Boss, you said our target this time is a group of Professor, those people are all rich people. Do you think we should kidnap them and squeeze out more money? After all, taking such a big risk, two hundred thousand dollars is a bit too little!"
The leader's nickname is Bad Dog, but he likes to be called the sideburns. There is an obvious scar on his face. He is playing with a titanium alloy dagger in his hand. A cold light flashes in his eyes: "We want two hundred thousand, I checked. That professor named Hilton has some connections with the American Hilton family. You can just listen to my instructions when the time comes!" After finishing speaking, he licked the dagger with his tongue.
"Okay, head! The other party seems to have stopped moving. He must be cooking. By the way, we received intelligence before that the scientific expedition team found the security company. We haven't found the specific name, but the message sent said that they had a total of There are only fifteen people and four cars!”
"Got it!" After saying that, the sideburns closed his eyes and continued to sleep.
In the woods in the distance, the leader of thirty black men looked at the GPS in his hand, feeling a little excited. He was finally about to catch up with his target. There were still four hundred meters left. As long as he walked through the woods and rushed to the other side, he would reach the other side.
I got it for only 100,000 yuan, which is really good money!
