Arknights Welcome to Terra Continent

She quickly found the person who made the noise. Through the solid railings, Bagpipe asked directly, "Hey, are you the one who was arrested in the warehouse outside the city last night?"
When the weak young man being asked raised his head, Bagpipe realized that he had recognized the wrong person.
“Ahem…Are you asking about Damian? Poor Damian, he’s been taken away a long time ago!”
After saying this with difficulty, he began to cough again.
"Hmm? Where was he taken?"
Horn asked urgently, this might be their only clue now.
Hearing Horn's question, the weak young man actually laughed. He looked at Horn's face, then at her clothes, and immediately showed a desperate expression.
"He has already...already..."
"Shut up!"
The soldier who arrived late shouted angrily. The weapon at his waist that he had just reached for was now in his hand and pointed at the weak young man in the cell.
"Do you want to end up like him?!"
"You are threatening him. Why are you threatening him?"
Bagpipe stood up, standing between the two of them, looking at the people in the cell and continued to ask.
"Where did the man who came yesterday go?"
"Ah...hahaha, he, he went home."
After saying the last sentence, he seemed to have exhausted all his strength, leaning against the cold wall and curled up in the corner.
"go home?"
"Hey, he was released? Does that mean he really has nothing to do with that ghost army? Captain..."
Bagpipe just turned around to look at her captain, only to find that she had already stretched out her hand to push the soldier away, and stood at the door of the cell with a grim face, and began to give orders - yes, in a commanding tone.
"Let me in."
"You can't talk to the prisoners without permission."
Faced with a negative answer, Horn did not continue to waste time with him, but directly reached out and grabbed the sturdy iron railing.
She should have done this a long time ago.
The horrible creaking sound immediately reached everyone's ears.
Chapter 426 Not an Ally
"Miss Horn, please stop."
A voice that did not belong to any of the three of them sounded in the corridor.
"You are......the adjutant?"
The horn remembered his voice and quickly released the already deformed iron railing, then approached the adjutant who had suddenly arrived.
"I want to see Captain Kelly, soldier. I know he's here."
"he's not here."
Faced with the oppressive feeling brought by the horn, he remained calm and answered.
"he's not here."
"Oh! You are the adjutant who cursed and beat people in the warehouse. I remember you. What do you want to say?"
Because of his disgusting attitude, Bagpipe was impressed by him, but of course, it wasn't a good impression.
"The captain left in a hurry. He asked me to tell you that the interrogation ended an hour ago."
"......"
Unlike the horn's silence, the bagpipe immediately asked anxiously.
"You! You mean, you told us the wrong time?!"
The adjutant shrugged helplessly and replied with a regretful tone: "Miscommunication is not uncommon anywhere, isn't it?"
Hey, it was an accidental mistake at work, and you just happened to encounter it. Are you angry?
"What do you mean by miscommunication? Do you think we are fools?"
Bagpipe stamped his feet angrily, turned his head and looked at Horn and said, "Captain, they used the trick of spreading false information to trap us!"
The horn calmed the anxious bagpipe, and then said seriously: "No, this is not the crux of the matter. Let me ask you, soldier, why are you coming forward to tell us this information now?"
Horn pointed at his watch and continued, "Since we have been delayed for so long, I'm sure you don't mind letting us waste more time."
After hearing this, the adjutant thought in silence for a while before opening his mouth to answer.
"Regarding your question..........."
But at this moment, another Victorian soldier ran in from outside. He glanced at the people in the corridor, quickly ran to the adjutant, and whispered something in his ear.
"Um...ok, I get it."
When the adjutant raised his head again, he began to answer the question from Horn without any hesitation.
"Lieutenant Scamander, I have been ordered to deliver the following information to you in person."
"The prisoner Damian Barry, the one you were very concerned about, was shot dead ten minutes ago for trying to snatch weapons and attack soldiers during the escort."
"You...what are you talking about?"
Fengdi was stunned, and then couldn't help asking: "We have seen that young man, he is just an ordinary person. When he saw us, he was so scared that he didn't dare to move. How could he attack the fully armed soldiers?"
The adjutant made no attempt to answer Bagpipe's question, he simply stared into Bugle's eyes.
"You executed the suspect without trial?"
Horn sneered, she was very familiar with this, it was just to cover up something.
But faced with this veritable conspiracy, Horn was helpless at this moment.
I just wiped out the witness in front of you, what can you do?
"We have communicated the facts to you, Lieutenant."
"Bagpipes, let's go."
Horn stared at the adjutant for a while, then grabbed Bagpipe's arm and rushed outside.
"Hey, captain, what are you doing?"
The horn did not answer, she just kept playing the bagpipe until she reached an open space outside the garrison where no soldiers were present and stopped.
"Captain, why are you leaving there? We are clearly in the right."
Bagpipe said angrily.
"...........I really don't know if you are really stupid or just pretending."
Bagpipe ignored what Horn said and complained, "Why don't they let us contact the suspect? Aren't we on the same side?"
"Although I don't know why they did this, I can tell you clearly, Bagpipe, they are definitely not our allies at this moment, and they may even become our enemies in the future."
"The only thing we can be sure of is that if we want to continue the investigation, we can only rely on ourselves. The attitude of the garrison has been made clear. They will not provide us with any help, and we will have less dealings with them."
The Horn spoke.
Bagpipe sighed and said helplessly: "Alas, I'm not stupid, I can see that it's good enough that they don't trip us up. But what should we do next? The only clue has been lost."
Horn was also thinking about this question, but she didn't have any valuable ideas for the time being, so she could only shake her head and said, "We have to think of other ways."
But this time it was Bagpipe who came up with the solution first.
"Hey, I suddenly remembered that young man named Damian said his job was to sort potatoes."
When it comes to this aspect, bagpipes are a professional match.
"Every agricultural plot around a mobile city has a special channel for transporting crops to the city. If we follow the clues, we should be able to find the settlement of the farmers. If we can talk to his friends or relatives, we may be able to continue the clues."
Bagpipe said a lot in one breath, and Horn only understood half of it at the moment. After thinking carefully for a while, Horn nodded.
“It’s a feasible approach indeed.”
And this is a method that only bagpipes can do. If this task is given to horn, she will definitely not be able to do it.
After all, the only person who can get anything out of the mouths of farmers who work hard in the fields should be another person who has also worked hard in the fields.
"Then leave the gathering of information to me!"
Bagpipe patted his chest and assured.
"Very good, Bagpipes, get started immediately."
"Hey, Captain, aren't you going with us?"
Horn shook his head and explained, "I stayed and negotiated with them. This not only attracted their attention, but also helped me investigate other things."
If there was an interrogation, there would be a record, unless they just handed the person over...
Horn shook his head, watched the bagpipes go away, and then walked towards the camp.
But at this moment, the communicator rang at an inopportune time.
It's emergency communication.
"Captain, we were on the outskirts of the city, they suddenly appeared, and I was discovered..."
"Triangle?"
Horn was not in a hurry, she calmly waited for further reports.
"The combat methods and weapons used by this group of people are completely consistent with the previous intelligence... Even Xiaogu's Originium skills have a hard time hitting them!"
"Remember, the first priority is to come back alive!"
"Understood, Captain! No problem! Triangle, communication complete!"
Before Horn could give further instructions, the communication was cut off.
............Their target, the legendary ghost-like army, was finally found!
Chapter 427 Wonderful Morning
Unlike the experience of the team led by Horn, the Rhodes Island Office in Hill County is filled with a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere.
Several Rhodes Island operators are working at their seats... or maybe they are just daydreaming?
After all, I sat there for a long time without even opening the book in my hand.
However, Beichen and Outcast were not in the Rhodes Island office at this time. There were only a few other operators stationed in the office in the room.
dong dong.
There was a sudden knock on the door and an operator yawned. His workstation was closest to the door, so it was natural that he was responsible for opening the door.
If this happened in school, he would probably be honored as the door god.
(After all, a certain author is the door god of the dormitory. Not only the door, but also the switch of the dormitory light is next to the author's bed)
The seat turned half a circle and he twisted the door handle in a stretching posture.
"Please come in."
The door was opened, but before anyone was seen, an enthusiastic voice came in from outside the door.
The operator who had just stretched to open the door now couldn't help but straighten his waist, looking full of energy.
"Good morning, everybody! It's a lovely day today, isn't it, Uncle Oliver?"
A young girl carrying a basket - she looked quite young - walked directly into the Rhodes Island office.
There was a smile on her face, and even people who saw her for the first time would be involuntarily attracted by her smile.
Of course it’s not just because of her beauty!
Although her appearance is attractive enough, the most attractive thing is her manners, which seem to be too elegant.
"It's you. I was wondering, who else would come here and knock on the door so early in the morning? But it's obviously a cloudy day today, how can it be good weather?"
I glanced out the window and saw that the sky was overcast, but I've been working here for so long that I'm used to this kind of weather.
