Chapter 3848: Clever scam

This Russian team found the location of the water valve all the way. In this desert wasteland, they do not have GPS guidance, only relying on a compass and a map. Can find here in such a short time, and the speed is not too slow.
This once again confirmed Lin Rui's judgment that these Russian mercenaries were indeed experts.
Unev of the Russian mercenary squad waved his mercenaries to stop.
"What's wrong?" a mercenary asked.
"We have reached the position where the water valve is located." Unev said, "Pay attention to the surrounding movement. Maybe the mercenaries on the black island will ambush."
"I've seen the surrounding area, it's just an empty space, there is nothing to cover up, and there are no people at all." A Russian mercenary replied in a low voice.
"It's better to be careful." Unev looked around cautiously and confirmed that there was no problem. Just made a gesture, "The location of the water pipe should be nearby, everyone spread out to look for it."
This area is very open, and you can only find a rough direction based on the map and the compass. Where are the specific water pipes and valve locations? You must search carefully to find out, so after confirming that there were no ambushes around, these Russian mercenaries began to scatter and search.
About a few minutes later, your Russian mercenary suddenly shouted in surprise, "Here, I found it."
Unev immediately rushed over with other Russian mercenaries, and as expected, he found a trench nearby.
Lying in the trench lies a dark tap water pipe that is half exposed. It looks thick and long. Both ends are deeply buried in the soil, leaving only part of the valve exposed. It seems that the valve has been used recently.
"Found it!" Unev couldn't help crying loudly, "Open the valve immediately." The two mercenaries jumped out of the groove and opened the water valve together.
"Successful. Now there should be water at the airport." A Russian mercenary said excitedly.
"Calm down, we must ensure that this valve is opened for 10 minutes." Unev whispered.
These Russian mercenaries were so excited that they couldn't restrain themselves. I didn't find anyone further away looking at them with a high-power telescope.
The person observing them was Sergey, who was lying in the sand covered with dry grass.
"How is the situation?" Lin Rui asked in a low voice in the communication headset.
"They found the fake pipe and they just opened the valve. It looks like these guys are very excited. It's almost time to dance gopark around that valve." Sergey whispered, "I really want to see, they After I went back, I found that there was no drop of water, what would it look like."
"Sergey, you're a bad guy." Lin Rui chuckled lightly, "but I also want to see what their expressions are."
After waiting for about ten minutes, Unev checked that the time was almost up, and waved his hand to let these Russian mercenaries retreat with him.
They returned to the airport happily, only to find Andre in the airport still looked gloomy.
"What's the matter, Captain?" Unev whispered, "How much water did you receive?"
"Why are you back? What do you do for you?" Andre said sharply.
"It's all done. We found the water pipe and opened the water valve, and we waited there for about fifteen minutes." Unev replied.
"Come and see by yourself!" Andre dragged him to the side of the tap.
Seeing that a drop of water didn't flow from the tap, Unev was a little stunned, "What's going on? Did they turn off the valve again?
But it was impossible. After we opened the water valve, we waited for more than ten minutes before returning. How could you not receive any water? "
"There hasn't been a single drop of water from beginning to end." Andre punched the wall with some irritation.
"I swear we really found the water pipe and opened the water valve on it." Unev quickly replied.
"Are you sure you found the water pipe and the water valve at the location marked on the map?" Andre asked.
"Yes, we all saw it. And it did open the water valve. But why is there not a drop of water in the airport? Could it be that there is a problem with the labeling of the map?" Unev was a little hard to believe the facts before him.
"This is absolutely impossible. The drawing of the airport's water supply pipeline should be correct. The problem must be elsewhere." Andre let go of Unev and walked back and forth.
After a long while, Andre asked Unev, "Are you sure you have opened the pipe valve?"
"Of course." Unev replied.
"You will repeat the situation with me in detail again, and don't miss a detail." Andrei looked at Unev and said.
Unev could only repeat the situation in detail again.
Andre walked back and forth, "What do you see like the water pipe?"
"It's an ordinary tap water pipe, which is very large and deeply buried in the ground. The water valve above is closed, and we two will open it together." Unev replied.
"Is there any water in that pipe?" Andre asked.
"Is there any water in the pipe? I don't know this. Besides, we can't see it outside even if there is water." Unev shook his head.
"I mean, is there any water on the pipe?" Andre whispered.
"On the pipe, you mean the surface of the pipe? It doesn't seem to be very dry, but with such a big water pipe, and there is no leaking, how could there be water on the surface of the pipe?" Unev was a little inexplicable.
"You fools, you were cheated. That must be a fake pipe." Andre stamped his foot.
"Fake pipe?" Unev was inexplicable.
Andre nodded, "Yes, the pipe you found must be fake. They must have hidden the real one and buried a fake pipe nearby.
If you think about it, the water pipe is made of metal. The temperature difference between day and night in the desert area is such a big difference. If there is water in the pipe, condensate will form on the wall of the metal pipe if there is such a temperature difference.
Because the water in the pipe cools the pipe wall, the moisture in the air cools and condenses outside the pipe. This is a very simple physical phenomenon.
But the tap water supply pipe that you found is dry on the outside of the pipe wall. This shows that there is no water in the water pipe, so the temperature of the pipe wall is not much different from the outside temperature.
You were deceived. This is a very cleverly designed scam. They didn't spend a single shot, but they made you go back and forth for nothing. "
Unev stomped his feet with anger, "Captain, I will go out and run again. This time I must find the real tap water supply pipe and restore the water supply at the airport."
