Instead of taking action immediately, he threw a small stone inside. After a few clangs, it was silent.
Without further hesitation, Loach was the first to disembark from the container, while two comrades extended their rifle barrels inside to keep watch for Loach.
Loach did not charge straight down like a hothead. After quickly entering the container, he grabbed the outer support of the iron ladder with one hand and turned sideways. His entire body was on the outside of the hanging ladder, and he relied on his arm strength to support himself. In a few seconds, he completed the two tasks of entering and observing.
Two minutes later, everyone heard Loach say, "Come down."
Ye Jian and White Crane didn't go down. Weaver and Azalea guarded the two-story container that someone had entered and left before they died. That person had guarded the single-story container that their comrades entered.
