Du Yue and He Xing were right. They arrived at the base not long after the sun set. The gate of the base had been closed before they went back. Fortunately, the signal of the internet in the base was good, so they could connect to the network of the base when they were at the gate. He Xing gave Zuo Mingdong a call and briefly explained the situation to him.
A few minutes later, the gate of the base opened slowly from the inside. He Xing drove into the base with the rest of the cars. The cars behind them quickly followed, afraid that they would be stopped outside the gate if they were slow. He Xing's car drove about 100 meters past the base's gate before stopping. The cars following behind him also stopped.
