Chapter 462: Chapter 461: Where is it hidden? Chapter 462: Chapter 461: Where is it hidden? After the hostage rescue, for safety reasons, they didnât immediately release them but instead found two or three stronger women inside.
They explained the current situation to them, it wasnât that they couldnât release them and the children, but that acting alone was more dangerous.
Having calmed down from the initial shock, those women also agreed with Tang Zelin and his teamâs decision.
With the issue of the women and children settled, the only remaining problem was where had the stash of weapons the bandits spoke of gone?
The forthright bandit named Laizi provided information that was simply incorrect.
Not just him; the other six men all affirmed that there truly was a house at the back of the village where the weapons were stored.
Tang Zelin ordered someone to escort them to point out which house it was.
âYouâd better tell the truth. Otherwise, youâre going to suffer. Where exactly are those military weapons you stole hidden?â
Laizi and his accomplices, tied up, looked at the empty room before them and were also stunned!
âThatâs not right, the weapons were indeed stored in this room, thereâs no way theyâre gone. How can there not even be a single gun here, itâs impossible.â
âRight, we really did keep them here,â the accomplice exclaimed in surprise as well.
âIâm giving you one more chance, where exactly are the weapons hidden?â Tang Zelin shouted sternly.
Mumbling, the seven men Laizi included were no longer sure, but they still insisted that they were indeed here before, how could they disappear?
After a long interrogation, they still didnât seem to get any results.
Tang Zelin then instructed his men to search every house, inside and out, leaving no stone unturned, to ensure the cache of weapons was found and not left to fall into even more dangerous hands.
Laizi and several of his cohorts sat on the ground, their faces still showing signs of fear.
Clearly, the weapons had been stored in that house, how could they suddenly have vanished?
It wasnât a small amount of weapons, enough to arm a battalion at the least, how could they just disappear?
Recalling how his accomplices had died in a bout of heavy fog, and those mysterious deaths, Laizi felt like he was going to breakdown. What kind of monster had they encountered?
It was capable of killing so many people without anyone noticing.
The more he thought, the more scared he became, squatting there, trembling with fear, and he felt cold sweat all over his body.
Guozi, who was watching them, snorted coldly, âSo you know how to be afraid, huh? When you were killing and cannibalizing people, why werenât you afraid then?â
To such scum, he truly wanted to finish them off with a gun.
But the group captain wouldnât allow it. Since they had taken captives alive, they couldnât just kill them outright; they had to escort the prisoners to the military police in Pengcheng City to deal with them.
Moreover, if these few dozen people could be so brazen, who knows how many more of their kind were operating out there; when casting a net to fish, you always need to leave some bait.
These matters would be dealt with after meeting with the troops in the Pengcheng area.
Their rash execution was against the rules.
After a long search, Tang Zelin and his men still hadnât found the cache of weapons.
They couldnât stay there too long, or it would attract even greater trouble.
Therefore, Tang Zelin ordered to take the rescued women and children, along with the seven captured men, and make for Pengcheng City as fast as possible.
Su Shu was comforting the emotions of the women and children while observing Tang Zelin and their search for weapons. Only when she heard Tang Zelinâs order to leave did she breathe a sigh of relief, without showing any signs of relief.
