"Jansen, go on guard duty. Radar, press the captive for more information, we move too slowly with him in tow. If that guy won't open his mouth, kill him."
Time was pressing, and danger had not yet passed. After assigning Jansen and Bantuna their separate tasks, Gao Yang turned to the laborers following him and said, "All right, now tell me, how many of those bastards are left, and how far is their camp from here?"
The laborer who had offered Gao Yang diamonds pointed in the direction of the China Northeast Area and said, "The camp is over there, not very close to here. We were searching for diamonds along the river, and after panning the upstream parts, we gradually came closer to this place. Yesterday, many men left, and about half of the bastards remain in the camp."
The information from the laborer confirmed that the captive had not lied; indeed, there were about fifty people left in the camp, but Gao Yang did not know exactly how far away the camp was.
