Meanwhile, the Colonel was receiving a report from his subordinates in his office.
When they finished reporting, they stood with their heads lowered, and didn't dare to breathe too loud.
The Colonel slammed his hand on the table and said through gritted teeth, "That Gu Shaoze really doesn't know what's good for him! He dares to defy me again and again. Looks like if we don't teach him a lesson, he will never understand his place!"
After a moment, one of his subordinates stepped forward and suggested, "Colonel, how about we arrest him? As long as his life is in our hands, he will have no choice but to follow orders no matter if he is willing or not."
The Colonel fell silent for a moment, considering the idea, then said, "Find an excuse and arrest him tonight."
"Understood!" the subordinates saluted in unison and left the room.
Once alone, the Colonel stood up and looked out the window at the bustling road below. If not for the death of the Commander-in-Chief, he would have never risen to his current position.
Since he successfully eliminated the biggest obstacle in his career, dealing with someone as insignificant as Gu Shaoze would be nothing.
Once he secured control over the camp's water supply, he would have another powerful bargaining chip. And when the entire camp was firmly under his control, even Wei Ying and his team would have to bow their heads and follow his orders.
Satisfied with this plan, the Colonel's mood improved. He pulled a cigarette from his pocket and lit it, the faint glow reflecting the ambition in his eyes.
At the same time, Gu Shaoze and Rong Mo'er made their way to visit Wei Ying. Their presence in the slum area surprised the Eagle Team members stationed there.
In the entire camp, this was the dirtiest and most lawless area. Survivors who couldn't afford to trade crystal cores or supplies for residence were placed here.
With a severe lack of resources, the people here were often gloomy, weak, and desperate. The slums had become a dangerous place, so the Eagle Team patrolled it regularly to maintain order.
"Brother Gu, what brings you and Sister Rong to this place?" one of the team members asked.
Gu Shaoze glanced around and replied, "I came to speak with Captain Wei. I wonder if he is available right now."
The soldier shook his head and replied, "Captain is busy at the moment. How about you return first? I will report it to him, and once he is free, I will inform you."
Gu Shaoze nodded with a smile and said, "Since Captain Wei is busy, we can talk another time. Brother, go ahead with your duties. Mo'er and I will head back ourselves."
"Alright," the soldier nodded and returned to his patrol.
However, Gu Shaoze and Rong Mo'er didn't leave the slum area. Instead, they wandered the area, observing the situation closely.
But due to the Colonel's tendency to curry favor with the wealthy and suppressing the weak, camp management had become disorganized and filled with corruption. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
