Chapter 151: Assassination (1)
The other two soldiers were stunned when they heard their comrade's answer. After a moment of silence, they wisely stopped discussing the matter.
Judging from the clothes of those people, they were either very capable or came from
influential and powerful families. For soldiers like them, it's better not to ask too much about those people.
After the soldiers left, Deng Qiqi curiously asked, "Elder Sister Yao Ran, why did you suddenly give them medicine and masks? This is not like what you usually do."
Yao Ran knew that Huang Zhihui and Deng Qiqi had a bad impression of her, so she replied, "They helped us, and it is natural for us to pay them for their help."
Deng Qiqi looked at her with probing eyes and said, "But you can deal with those people alone. We can protect ourselves without the soldiers' help. Even if they helped us, we don't necessarily need to repay their kindness because we didn't ask for help, and we didn't owe them anything."
Yao Ran shrugged, "It's too cold, and I'm too lazy to move. It's just right for the soldiers to deal with those people, so I don't have to waste my energy."
After hearing her casual answer, Deng Qiqi said nothing, but her lowered eyes showed a hint of a smile.
Seeing that it was almost noon, they hurriedly dragged the firewood home, taking turns pulling it along the way. When they walked into the suburbs, Yao Ran suddenly shouted, "Be careful!"
Hearing this, everyone instinctively found a cover, and then, in the next second, a bullet struck the firewood.
Bang!
A gunshot echoed in the surroundings, causing the survivors to scream in terror and run away in a hurry.
After they stabilized themselves, everyone took out their guns and used the firewood as a
cover.
Long Yu looked at the location where the bullet hit, and his eyes darkened. If Yao Ran was one second late, she would be dead. The bullet was located where her head was.
He looked at the surroundings and said, "Our position is not good. We have no cover and are easily attacked."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Huang Qian asked, "Should we hide in one of those buildings?"
Shi Xuan glanced at the buildings around them, shook his head, and said, "The distance is too far. We will be shot before we reach the building."
"Then what should we do?" Jia Xiang asked.
Long Yu thought for a while and replied, "I will lure them, and you guys will run to one of the buildings to take cover."
When Yao Ran heard his plan, she grabbed Long Yu's arm and said, "I disagree."
Having worked as special force soldiers for many years, Shi Xuan, Huang Qian, and Jia Xiang thought it was normal for them to risk their lives for the mission. In their current situation, their mission was to find the shooter's position and protect their teammates.
Therefore, when Yao Ran expressed her disagreement just now, the three of them subconsciously looked at Long Yu and waited for his order.
Long Yu looked at Yao Ran's expression and then at her hand, which was tightly grabbing his
arm.
After a moment of silence, the corners of his lips curved up. Luckily, he was wearing a mask and sunglasses. Otherwise, his friends would see him show a silly smile as he stared at Yao Ran.
A few seconds later, Long Yu coughed and calmed down his emotions. He then gently patted Yao Ran's hand, which was grabbing his arm.
He looked at her and said in a low voice, "Don't worry. I will be fine."
Yao Ran stared at him for a moment and shook her head. She stubbornly said, "No. It's too dangerous. If you get hit and bleed, you will die within seconds."
Before Long Yu could speak, she glared at him and said, "Shut up."
Although he couldn't see her eyes behind her sunglasses, Long Yu instinctively knew that she was angry and wisely decided to shut up. It would be bad if he made her hate him before she even liked him.
Looking at the Captain, who acted like a puppy in front of Yao Ran, Shi Xuan smiled and said, "Since Yao Ran doesn't agree, then we have to make another plan."
As soon as he finished speaking, another gunshot rang out. This time, Huang Qian reacted quickly and raised his gun. The next second, he pulled the trigger.
Psyiu~!
With excellent eyesight, Huang Qian found the sniper's position in second and shot him. Unfortunately, the distance was too far, and he could only hit the wall, forcing the sniper to hide behind the wall.
He cursed and said, "Captain, the bullets are coming from the same direction. There seems to be only one person over there."
Long Yu thought for a second and said, "Huang Qian, Huang Zhihui, and Deng Qiqi will stay here and try to force the sniper to hide to buy us some time. Shi Xuan and Jia Xiang will enter the building from the right door, while Yao Ran and I will enter from the left door."
"Yes, Captain."
After giving the order, Long Yu held Yao Ran's hand and asked, "Are you ready?"
Yao Ran nodded, and then Huang Qian shot at the sniper again. As soon as they heard the bullet hit the wall, Long Yu said, "Go!"
The four people were divided into two teams and rushed into the building from the left and right directions. With Huang Qian buying time for them, the four of them entered the building safely.
As soon as they entered the building, Long Yu and Yao Ran quickly checked the rooms before slowly going upstairs.
They met Shi Xuan and Jia Xiang on the next floor. After Long Yu made a few hand gestures, they carefully checked the rooms on that floor.
No one was found hiding on that floor, so they went to the top floor. Now that she knew there was a sniper there, Jia Xiang opened her backpack and took out a flash bomb she made when she was bored at home.
