As Kisha suspected, the soldier was visibly shocked by this revelation, staggering backward in surprise. His thoughts were inscrutable to them, but they could hear him take a deep breath as he regained his composure. In an instant, his emotions vanished from his face, replaced by a stoic expression.
He also took care to inquire about the specifics of the explosions and their exact location, aligning with Kisha’s intentions. She willingly shared the information, ensuring to mention that they hadn’t encountered any additional survivors outside. This strategic move aimed to imply that the individuals they were seeking were likely still at large, potentially engaged in conflict with those camps.
Kisha surmised that the soldier would likely dispatch a team of skilled soldiers to verify the information they provided, particularly regarding the explosions. However, she remained unconcerned about the duration of their investigation. Even if they were placed under surveillance for an extended period, Kisha was confident in maintaining the authenticity of their account. freewebnøvel.coɱ
Since they had already provided a detailed map of the western district and the camps’ locations, the investigators wouldn’t need to scour the entire area. Instead, they could plan their routes efficiently to ensure they reached the specific destinations marked on the map.
After ensuring Kisha had said everything necessary, and to prevent the soldier from pressing for more answers, Duke stepped in front of Kisha, feigning impatience and exhaustion. "Can we get our rewards now? We’ve been traveling for days and we’re tired," he said succinctly. His brief words conveyed everything needed.
The soldier understood that further questions would yield no more information, so his next step was to verify what had been shared.
He reached for the walkie-talkie beside him and called out, "Prepare the supplies for the mission’s reward for scouting the western district." He paused, looking at Kisha, then added, "Also, call unit one. I have a mission for them." After issuing his instructions, he set down the walkie-talkie and remained silent, not dismissing Kisha and her team.
As a result, they continued to wait patiently for their reward.
He then fell into deep contemplation, but Kisha and her team paid little attention, focused solely on waiting for their supplies so they could leave promptly. After half an hour, a knock sounded on the door, breaking the silence. The soldier finally spoke again, his stern and powerful voice reverberating throughout the room. "Come in."
After hearing the acknowledgment, another soldier entered the room. "Commander, the supplies have been prepared outside. They can take them away at any time," he reported before excusing himself and leaving the room.
After hearing that, Kisha and the rest were about to leave to get their supplies waiting outside. However, as soon as they turned, they heard a conspicuous throat-clearing. Kisha sensed that the soldier had something more to say, but she had no intention of waiting around for him to speak. They continued to walk out, and on their second step, they heard the man say.
