Chapter 297: How could it be this guy?

It was unwise to enter through the front door, but Jiang Chen didn't plan to do that in the first place.
The drone can take care of the reconnaissance.
He ordered the older soldier to notify Cheng Weiguo and ask him to bring some soldiers for backup. At the same time, he ordered the younger soldier to stay by the back door of the mall to prevent people from escaping.
After doing all this, Jiang Chen took out a hummingbird drone from the storage dimension. This type of hummingbird drone was not attached to a machine gun, but rather a set of light multifunctionality reconnaissance device. It would complete any reconnaissance mission and was a convenient tool.
But Jiang Chen was not completely satisfied. After deliberating for a moment, he also attached two fist-sized sticky explosives on top of the drone as he utilized the remaining load.
After connecting the drone to the computer in his power armor, he slowly approached the mall. Then in front of the KFC, close to the front door, he threw out the disc in his hand as he controlled the drone and flew it to the third-floor window.
Without making a sound, the disc sized drone approached the cloth-sealed window as the pin camera pierced into the cloth.
Other than an office table and a row of filing cabinets, there was nothing else suspicious in the room.
After slicing a small opening in the cloth, the drone flew into the room. Underneath the window, Jiang Chen saw a round shaped landmine.
Jiang Chen felt his scalp tingling.
Good thing he didn't just flip inside, it was filled with traps.
Not only at the window but below the open door, an infrared trip mine was also hidden.
But those things were useless against a drone.
Jiang Chen skillfully controlled the drone as it flew into the deserted tunnel as he searched room by room.
Most of the rooms were empty or rather stuffed with pre-war office supplies.
But in a room at the end of the hallway, Jiang Chen saw something that looked different.
Four fridge-sized metal equipment were lined up and placed at the entrance of the door. Along with the equipment, a faint fan noise could be heard. There were computer towers? But it didn't look like that was possible.
In the middle of the room was a surgery table filled with blood. The light squeezing through the cracks of the wooden boards happened to scatter on the blood stains. A few surgical knifes were placed a rusty tray nearby. From the yet to turn black bloodstains, a surgery seemed to have occurred not too long ago.
What was more daunting was the paint in the paint can.
The content of the can was obviously not painted, but blood mixed with meat chunks and broken limbs.
”Fu*k.” Jiang Chen outside of the mall cursed as his stomach turned.
These were obviously not things that belonged to a mall.
...
Just as Jiang Chen was controlling the drone to hover around the room, looking for other evidence, a sound came from the floor below.
Jiang Chen immediately controlled the drone to hover out of the room and fly down along the stairs.
After directly flying through a row of offices, the disc stopped at the door of an office.
The door was closed, but it couldn't stop the genius Yao Yao.
This girl was not only talented in programming, but she was also experienced in electronic device modification. Jiang Chen carefully controlled the hummingbird drone towards the doorknob, aimed it at the mechanical lock, and pierced the pin camera inside.
The needle followed the lock pattern inside. After making a few turns, it successfully came out on the other side.
It was dark inside the room, but there was enough light to see clearly.
There were four people inside the room, three stood up, one was on the ground.
Meng Qian was the one who was lying on the ground. The person closest to him was a bearded man. He couldn't see the face of a tall but thin man, but instinct told Jiang Chen that he was dangerous. As to the man with his back against the door, he didn't look important and must be a pawn only.
...
”Hell, why did this dumb*ss eat the drug himself, didn't I tell him not to eat it himself! What is this dumb*ss' brain made out of.” The bearded man cursed as he kicked the unconscious Meng Qian.
The kick seemed to hurt Meng Qian as he woke up from unconsciousness.
When he realized that he was tied up, his eyes began to quiver in fear.
”What do we do next?” The tall and thin man carrying a fluid-shaped rifle coldly looked at the twitching Meng Qian as he said without any emotion.
”Hmm... Should we observe him for a bit longer?” The man at the door suggested.
”That seems to be the only option, at least wait till he becomes conscious again.” The bearded man sighed, sat on the chair, and lit up a cigarette.
”Who are you? Why did you tie me up! God, are you crazy? Hongbo, little Du, come help me! These psychos...” Meng Qian screamed at the empty office table as he listlessly yellowed out random names.
