They only waited for two minutes before some people walked out of the gate. However, they were not completely stupid. A few held a thick steel plate in front of them, and everyone hid behind the steel plate. The group slowly moved out.

When they reached the gate, the people hiding behind the steel plate stopped. The dim yellow street lamp at the entrance had also been turned off. That group of people probably thought that Du Yue and the others would not dare to shoot rashly without light, which was why they made that decision.

Their ideas were good, and their calculations were brilliant, but they were still too naive. Du Yue and He Xing held their guns at the same time and easily saw every move at the gate through the night-vision goggles. Although they covered their upper bodies, they carelessly exposed their feet.

Just from the distance between their shoes, they could determine the distance between them and the position of their upper bodies. Even if they hid behind a sturdy steel plate, Du Yue and He Xing could still easily kill them in one fell swoop.

Although the two were confident, neither of them acted rashly. Now was not the time to shoot. A few minutes had passed. They heard someone at the gate pick up a loudspeaker and shout at them.

“Captain Zuo, I didn’t expect you to move so quickly! No wonder you’re from the first base. Your courage and speed are indeed incomparable to the captains of other small bases.” The voice of the person who spoke was a little low and feminine. It was unfamiliar.

Although they could not see the person who spoke, just hearing the sinister voice made them feel as if they were being stared at by a venomous snake hidden in the dark. It made them feel a chill.

Before Zuo Mingdong could speak, the man spoke again impatiently, “Captain Zuo, you’re a smart person. I won’t beat about the bush with you. What we did just now was inappropriate. My big brother had a rather irritable personality and often did things on impulse. However, you’ve already killed him. Other than my big brother, your men also killed a bunch of my men. Since you guys aren’t at a disadvantage, why don’t we stop fighting and become friends? Didn’t you come all the way here for coal? Since we’re all friends now, I can give you the coal you want. I don’t want you to exchange it for anything else. I’ll give the coal to you as a gift. What do you guys think?”

The two groups had just fought half an hour ago. Not only did the other party lose many of their subordinates, but even their boss was killed by He Xing. This person could easily let go of such a deep hatred and even said that he wanted to be friends with them. Regardless of whether others believed him or not, Du Yue did not believe it.

Of course, Zuo Mingdong would not believe his nonsense. “Who are you? Will your men listen to the words you say? You say you want to have a good discussion, but once my people walk out, your people will launch a sneak attack.”

“I’m the second oldest. Since Big Brother is no longer around, I’m in charge here now. Don’t worry, Captain Zuo. My men will listen to me. Since I said I want to be friends with you, they won’t do anything to my friends.”

“Since you want to make friends, you should at least show some sincerity. We won’t believe you just by talking.”

“Alright, what kind of sincerity do you want to see?”

“At the very least, you have to come out from the shadows, right? You want to make friends, but we can’t even see your face. How can we trust you?” As soon as Zuo Mingdong finished speaking, the gate suddenly fell silent.

Second Brother, who was still talking to Zuo Mingdong, suddenly stopped talking. It was unknown whether he was hiding and scolding Zuo Mingdong for being stubborn or considering whether Zuo Mingdong’s suggestion was feasible.

After another five minutes, the feminine voice sounded again. “Captain Zuo, since everyone wants to be friends, we can’t be the only ones to show sincerity, right? I have a suggestion. After you and I count down from three, let’s walk out together and have a good chat face-to-face. What do you think?”

“Sure.”

“Captain Zuo, you’re indeed a straightforward person. Alright, let’s begin.

“One!

“Two!

“Three!”

As soon as he finished counting down, no one came out from the darkness. Instead, someone took the opportunity to shoot. Second Brother, who was hiding in the dark, was happy when he heard the gunshot. However, he soon realized that something was wrong. He looked at the burly man beside him. “Something’s wrong. The one who fired doesn’t seem to be our man!”

The gunshot was clearly coming from behind him, but the bullet was not fired in the direction of Zuo Mingdong and the others! Before the burly man could figure it out, Second Brother thought of a terrifying possibility, and his expression immediately stiffened..
