Emi: Master, I have buried the drums. I overheard the thugs, and it is as you guessed. They are preparing for the worst.
Ace: Good job, Emi. I will recall you right away.]
Ace and Dame Wasp had already moved a mile away from the 9Ks' hideout. Meanwhile, the unknown cursed slave, driving his Baja Bug, was nearing the hideout and a few yards away from making contact with the thugs.
Recalling Emi to his side, Ace and Emi then moved another mile away from the hideout, leaving Dame Wasp behind. Now, Dame Wasp was one mile from the hideout, while Ace and Emi were two miles away.
Hiding among the trees and leaving his body in Emi's care, Ace shared Dame Wasp's senses. With her cybernetics, it wouldn't be hard for her to spy on the farmhouse from a mile away.
