"Found it? This? Is this place really the most dangerous?" Lin Miaoke asked, puzzled.
"What did you think, that they are standing here with guns, appreciating the night view?"
"But..."
"Shh, soone's coming."
Just then, three people walked out from a small path nearby. The dozen or so ard guards imdiately looked over warily.
"Who goes there?"
Seeing soone approaching, the guards imdiately took off their night vision goggles and pointed their flashlights at the trio in unison.
"It's ."
"Password."
The three stepped forward and started talking with the guards.
Since they were wearing night vision goggles and the ground ahead was open, Xiaofan couldn't get closer. Even with his keen hearing, he couldn't make out what they were saying when they deliberately spoke quietly.
After a while of conversation, the guard who had been talking gestured to soone behind.
The next scene left Xiaofan and Lin Miaoke stunned.
A beam of light suddenly appeared from the cliff wall, which gradually expanded until it ford a large door.
A stone gate, a stone cave, brightly lit inside. Is this the most dangerous place Xiaofan ntioned?
The trio entered, and the stone door closed again. Everything returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.
"I guess you were right. This is their secret base," Lin Miaoke sighed softly.
Yes, the most dangerous place is indeed the safest. Blocked on three sides by enemies, only the path Snake Head took them remains.
Following this path, they found their base, but how to get in now?
"What's wrong with you? You look worried," Lin Miaoke asked quietly.
"It doesn't help much to know now if we can't get in. If we had heard what they said, it might be easier. Judging by their conversation, they definitely exchanged a secret code."
"I know what they were talking about."
At that, Lin Miaoke's words left Xiaofan dumbfounded.
"You know? You could actually hear from this far?"
"No, I couldn't hear, but I can read lips. When they lit up with flashlights, I could see their lips very clearly."
"Impressive. What did they say?"
"Let think."
"Think quickly. If the people behind can't find us, they'll send so over here, and we'll be trapped, right in front of their base. That'd really be a dead end," Xiaofan urged anxiously.
"Our bullets are used up; we just ca down from halfway up the mountain. The guard asked, weren't you five leaving? Why did only three return? The person said two more are behind, they'll be here soon. The guard asked for the code again. That person casually said: we're all familiar, what's the need for codes. The guard said sternly: Co on, you know the situation now, quickly, the code."
"Amazing. So, what was the code?"
"I, I didn't get it too clearly. It seed to be in English."
"English? So advanced?" Xiaofan wondered.
"Yeah. Maybe, can't be too sure."
"Tell ."
"First one was: Your mother biubiubiu. Second one: Your mother is boomkalaka. Third one: Your mother therduang. Fourth one: NOpapa, NOhaha."
"Huh? Pfft..." Listening to Lin Miaoke's so-called code, Xiaofan struggled to hold back his laughter, but couldn't with the last one, bursting out laughing.
"Why are you laughing? Did you understand?" Lin Miaoke, though top of her class in English, really couldn't decipher this kind of English.
"Ah, kind of. The person who designed this code is a real talent. Co on."
"Go? Where to?"
"Didn't they say two more are coming up? We intercept them, then blend in, using the code to get in. Once their guard is down, we find a chance to escape."
"We can go, but you have to explain what that code ant first?"
"Hmm, want to know?"
"Duh."
"Alright, hold on tight."
Quickly picking up Lin Miaoke, Xiaofan hurried off down a different path, feeling around in the dark for over thirty ters before stopping, quietly waiting for the two people to approach.
"Hey, speak up."
"'Your mother biububiu' ans, your mother flew. 'Your mother kalaka' ans your mother exploded. 'Your mother therduang' ans your mother fainted. The last one 'NOpapaNohaha.' Pfft, haha..." Xiaofan couldn't hold back again.
"What is it really?"
"Hmm, you know what 'papa' ans, right?"
"I, I obviously know." Lin Miaoke realized she'd asked a silly question. If the previous was 'papa,' then the next is...
"Hmm, a more refined translation would be sothing like 'no love, no joy...'"
"In life, you're definitely a jerk."
"Thanks, I'll take that as a complint of my talent. Now, here they co."
Sure enough, Lin Miaoke's lip-reading was accurate; two people were quickly heading their way.
If Lin Miaoke's lip-reading was correct, then the code should be too. So, without a second thought, Xiaofan went ahead and knocked the two to the ground.
"Quick, don't just stand there, co switch clothes."
"Switch, switch clothes? I..." Lin Miaoke hesitated, looking at Xiaofan.
"What's the matter?"
"Turn around first."
"Co on, are you dumb? Who told you to take off your clothes to change them? This coat... uh, hurry up."
Xiaofan was in such a rush, he forgot Lin Miaoke was wearing a dress. If she just put on the coat, she'd definitely give the ga away.
"Hey, don't turn around, I'm warning you."
"Tch, so what if I do? It wouldn't take away a piece of at."
"You..."
Despite the exchange, Xiaofan was gentlemanly enough to turn his back on her. This scene, this silhouette... it felt so familiar to Lin Miaoke, like back then, in that valley, just the two of them.
"Hey, are you changing or not?"
"Shut up, don't turn around."
Damn it, why is she thinking of Ye Xiaofan, that stinky brat again?
Removing her skirt, skin as white as snow was exposed in the night. Lin Miaoke kept a close watch on the figure in front of her, quickly putting on the enemy's clothes.
All the while, he remained upright, never once turning around. In a way, he had a bit of a gentleman's air.
To be honest, Xiaofan wasn't any kind of gentleman. n, by nature, appreciate beauty, and he was just a normal man. However, n can admire beauty without being lecherous. This distinction, Xiaofan understood well.
