Chapter 1312 1312. Pursuit (15)
The villagers joined Li Du's team and squeezed into the car with bread and hot water obediently, like chickens and ducks being driven into a cage.
Looking at their current appearance, it is absolutely impossible to connect with those vicious invaders before. After all, they are just ordinary people living in a bitter cold place, not some vicious thugs.
The team set off after staying in the wilderness for one night. At some point in the night, the fog finally dissipated. The weather was still gloomy, but the vision returned to normal.
Bolshevik Island is very large and is full of barren land. It is difficult for a large group of people to pass by such a place without leaving traces, so driving along these trails, they can chase those loggers.
Sitting in a car, Li Du asked, "Are there still loggers on this island?"
Steve frowned and said, "It's just cutting down trees. Polar forests are protected resources in Russia and they are not allowed to be cut down. However, trees living in this environment are very suitable for making furniture materials, so there are always people who will take the risk of cutting down trees."
Li Du asked: "The area of the polar forest is not large, and there are not many trees in it, right? If someone stole the wood and no one cares about it? If no one cares about it, how come it hasn't been cut down yet?"
Steve took a deep breath and said, "Of course there are people in charge. The local government, coast guard, and agriculture and forestry departments have been working hard to protect the polar forest. There are forest rangers in the forest. Survey ships appear from time to time in the surrounding sea. Once illegal logging is found People of the forest, they will punish severely."
Brother Wolf, who never intervened in their conversation, spoke this time. He said: "These people are not ordinary forest logging workers. They are very skilled. When they found themselves in a trap, they did not fight trapped animals, but retreated immediately. so that there is nothing we can do.”
Li Du immediately asked: "There are traces of the military on them, right?"
Brother Wolf nodded.
Li Du asked Steve again: "Who did you provoke? Why did they set up a trap to deal with us?"
Steve said helplessly: "How would I know? Who said that I provoked people? Maybe you provoked people? Since entering Siberia, you have been provoking people all the way."
Li Du thought that this was indeed the case. He offended many people at the ivory hunter, and offended the local gang at the bride's market. The local gang even took revenge by exposing their identities as pirates.
These loggers may really be related to Vorkuta's gang. They are the people who know their own financial resources best. The pirates should not only take revenge a few days ago, but also want to rob them.
But he felt that those gang members were just mobs. Brother Wolf thought that the logger had traces of retired soldiers. From this point of view, the two sides could not get along.
Steve repeatedly questioned the villagers and Andrik. The two sides were not clear about the identity and background of the logger, so he said that the other party claimed to be a logger, and that there were indeed wood powder and sawdust on their coats.
The car was galloping all the way, and the team was very long. The car in front was a reconnaissance car. From time to time, unmanned aerial vehicles would be released from the car to monitor the surrounding area from the air.
Li Du and the others had to be careful. Since the other party was coming for them, they must be prepared.
They are now chasing after the traces left by the loggers. These may not be the traces left by the loggers' escape, but they may also be deliberately left to lure them into the trap.
Fortunately, the car bumped and swayed along the way, and they didn't receive any bad news, and the video data sent back to the computer after the unmanned aerial vehicle occasionally flew out did not find any traces of the other party's ambush.
Brother Wolf didn't heave a sigh of relief. His fighting philosophy was that if he didn't kill his opponent, he should be ready to meet him in the next second.
After a day of pursuit, they set up camp again in the evening.
The bodyguards were busy setting up the tent, and Li Du had nothing to do, so he suddenly asked Steve, "My compatriot Tang Chaoyang, are you familiar with it?"
Steve was taken aback when he heard it. He didn't answer, but went to Andrek and said, "Have you seen any strangers on the island recently? There are very few people around the island, right? If there are strangers, you Can you see it?"
Andrik shook his head: "No, sir, I have been staying in the institute..."
"Then ask these villagers if they have ever seen a stranger." Steve interrupted him.
Andrik communicated with the locals in his dialect, and after a while he gave his answer: "About a week ago, someone saw some cars similar to yours, and they were the same size. They appeared on Young Pioneers Island, but they didn't come here. Bolshevik Island."
Steve asked, "What color are those cars?"
"red."
Steve clapped his hands vigorously, he hurried back to call Li Du and the Ford brothers together, and then sneered: "The red devil Bolevin is here, he came here earlier than me, and united with the villagers to deal with us It must be this bastard!"
Li Du wondered, "The Red Devil Bravin? Who is this guy?"
"A bastard, I didn't expect him to come here." Little Ford said rather depressed.
"To be more specific, what kind of bastard is he?" Li Du continued to ask.
Steve replied: "The Red Devil Bravin, his full name is Bobby Bravin, do you know the British Broad Financial Wealth Group? His family is in control of this group, saying these are useless to you, All you need to know is that this bastard has the same purpose as ours, and he also came to the Northern Islands to collect meteorites."
Li Du suddenly said: "Oh, their goal is also a meteorite?"
"It is very likely that they have already discovered something, so they want to catch us, control us or drive us away." Steve said with a serious expression.
Li Du looked happy, and said: "This is just right, let's get rid of this bastard and take over his harvest, so we can save a lot of trouble, right?"
Little Ford laughed loudly, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Yes, Li, your thoughts coincide with mine."
Li Du was still a little puzzled, and asked Steve, "Why did you suddenly think of checking this person?"
Steve shook his head and said, "I didn't expect to check this person. It's the mysterious compatriot you mentioned just now. He is an adventurer. He is as interested in the meteorites in the Northern Islands as we are. Those people are here for us and the meteorite."
This association was necessary, and they were no longer confused about the attack, but began to become clear.
The night fell quickly, and they entered the tent to rest. Brother Wolf arranged multiple teams to patrol and watch the night to prevent people from sneaking into them at night.
According to the requirement, everyone needs to sleep in their clothes, which makes Li Du a little depressed. This adventure is really a new experience, and he did not expect to suffer so many crimes.
