After Luke finished his work, the plane was refueled and took off again.

“You can call me.”

"I tried calling, but it didn't work."

Karl said so.

That's why Carl sensed something was amiss, and when his men filmed the hangar, he became even more certain of it.

Carl originally intended to find Luke as soon as possible and hand over the video.

but!

Just as everyone knows that Jack is Luke's most loyal follower, everyone also knows that Luke's trust in Jack is almost limitless.

Carl, at the time, had no idea that the Jack appearing in the video was an imposter.

and so!

Carl, who thought this Jack was the real Jack, knew very well that this matter could be a big deal or a small deal.

Carl couldn't contact Luke, so he couldn't be sure whether his blood was what Luke wanted.

If not, then that's fine.

If that's the case, then handing over this video would clearly be an invasion of the privacy of those in power, and might even be suspected of sowing discord.

As Luke listened to Carl's concerns, he couldn't help but laugh once again.

“Karl, this sounds like something you’ve been thinking about.”

"No, it's my wife."

"Jiaying? Well, that does sound a lot like Jiaying."

Upon hearing this, Lu Ke raised an eyebrow, then shook his head with a wry smile, before looking at Karl: "But now you're telling me that this means you have other evidence besides this video?"

Carl shook his head: "I received the latest news. After Zola tried to assassinate you, I felt that you had to know about this. I asked Jia Ying, and she felt the same way. So, I rushed from Colorado to Washington overnight."

Lu Ke was slightly taken aback.

"Colorado, what are you doing there?"

"After Jack received the blood vessel, he went to another secluded private airport, handed the blood vessel over to another person, and then the plane's destination was Colorado."

Carl truthfully explained: "Jiaying's opinion was that there was something strange about this matter, so it was necessary to investigate it thoroughly. Therefore, I went there. However, when the plane flew into Colorado, its signal was blocked. I know Zola's methods, as you told me. So, these days, I have been secretly investigating in Colorado."

at the same time……

If Jack had really defected to Zola, Carl was afraid of alerting him by making a phone call rashly. In fact, to avoid being targeted by Zola, he didn't bring any electronic devices with him.

Jia Ying also told him that this matter had to be handled with caution, and therefore, he had to be careful in contacting the outside world until he found any clues.

That's why he had no idea that Luke had gone to Seoul to wield considerable influence.

After listening to Carl's story, Luke realized something and looked at Carl: "So, you really found something in Colorado?"

Karl didn't answer, but frowned and said, "I don't know if this counts as a lead. I was planning to discuss it with Jia Ying, but then I heard about your assassination attempt."

Luke asked directly, "What leads?"

Carl stated his findings directly.

"About two weeks ago."

“Following the clues, I traveled all the way from Denver and eventually tracked them down to a small town in the Colorado desert.”

"The town is called Stoneville."

"It's very small. The total population of the town is estimated to be no more than 30,000."

"Aside from being somewhat isolated, there's nothing about this town that feels different to me."

"This is a typical, relatively isolated small town."

"So at first, I didn't feel anything was wrong."

"I went there as a backpacker. I was originally planning to leave and go to the city of Kahn, east of the town, to see if I could find any clues."

"Then, on the night I left, I realized something was wrong."

"Someone..."

"wrong."

"Everyone in the town seems a bit off."

As Carl recounted this, a hint of lingering fear appeared on his face.

Luke also learned the details of the story from Carl's account.

Simply put.

That night, as Carl was about to pack his bags, get into his old car, and leave the small town of Stoneville, he suddenly caught a glimpse of figures moving about in the town's wooded park.

Realizing he might find a clue, Carl quickly crept over.

As a hunter named Carl who spent decades searching for clues about Jia Ying all over the world, let's talk about it.

Carl's stealth and reconnaissance skills were almost maxed out in actual combat.

Therefore, he was not discovered by anyone when he sneaked into the park.

then……

He was deep inside the park when he witnessed an incredible scene.

Carl saw that deep in the park, a section of the ground collapsed. Then, one after another, townspeople Carl had seen before were secretly executed by unknown soldiers. Then, one after another, the executed townspeople and some residents he didn't recognize reappeared alive.

Such a scene would be extremely terrifying even during the day, let alone at night.

Fortunately, Carl was a tough guy with a strong mentality. After watching the whole "switcheroo" scene, he suppressed his curiosity and didn't rush to the collapsed area to investigate.

After all, no one can be sure whether there are hidden surveillance cameras or something nearby.

Carl had gone camping in the park during the day with the residents who had been killed the day before but were now alive again.

He used the built-in camera function of the MP4 he brought from Dongguo to take many photos.

Lu Ke looked at the grass displayed on the MP4 screen in his hand, but couldn't see anything unusual at first glance.

Carl, however, confidently pointed to the grass in the middle of the photo, stating that the grass he saw at the time was adjustable in height.

Luke didn't speak, but instead asked Karl about what happened next.

Carl then recounted what happened next.

After camping, Carl didn't stay too long, which wouldn't be in line with his backpacker identity, so he set off at noon for the city of Kahn, east of the town.

result……

This trip made Karl realize once again that something was wrong.

There is no other reason.

On his very first night in Kahn, the hotel owner he found was the very stranger he had seen in the woods of the town the day before, the one who had been executed and then inexplicably resurrected.

no doubt.

This sinister force isn't just present in the small town of Stoneville; it has even affected the city of Cahn.

"At first, I thought all the origins were beneath the park in the town of Stoneville."

"So, the next day, I found a reason to pave the way for my return."

“I deliberately found a thug and got beaten up by him. After calling the police, I drove back to Stoneville and told the hotel owner what happened to me. I made an excuse that I needed to stay there for a while and wait for my companion to catch up.”

"After that, I began to investigate the park."

"You know me, during the days when I was looking for Jia Ying, some bases were always built underground, so I have quite a bit of experience in exploring whether there are underground bases."

Karl said so.

Luke did not refute this point.

After all, the man sitting opposite him, Carl, had transformed himself from a helpless biology PhD into an all-around expert while searching for Jia Ying.

"Don't say it, really don't say it."

"I actually found another place that seems to be connected to the town's underground base."

"This is the villa."

As Carl spoke, he took the MP4 from Luke's hand again, then pulled up a photo of an American-style villa located on the outskirts of the town, and handed it back to Luke.

Luke didn't notice anything amiss at first, until he saw Carl mention a villa, at which point he suddenly felt a bit confused.

Villas outside the town.

A secluded town.

The base beneath the town.

And then there are the cities connected to the town by rail.

Don't know why.

As Lu Ke looked at the villa in the photo, a strange sense of déjà vu suddenly welled up in his heart.

but……

Luke suppressed his sense of déjà vu, glanced at the photo, and then looked at Karl: "You just said suspected, but haven't confirmed it?"

Carl shook his head: "I originally wanted to find an opportunity to confirm, but Jia Ying said that there are some things that need to be discussed with her. So, I just contacted Jia Ying and then learned about your situation from her, so I came to find you overnight."

Lu Ke nodded thoughtfully.

after awhile.

Luke asked Carl, "Roads, Stoneville?"

Karl nodded emphatically.
