Lin Rui and others have escaped the pursuit, or the guards have given up on chasing them. After successfully passing through the open area, we entered the mountainous woodland.
"How's it going?" Lin Rui asked Jiang An. They were all slightly injured in the continuous collision just now. But I didn¡¯t bother with bandaging along the way. Jiang'an's eyebrow arch was cracked, his face was bleeding, and the corners of his eyes were severely swollen.
"You look like a beaten boxer." Zhao Jianfei said with a bitter smile.
While wrapping gauze around his forehead and eyebrows, Jiang An shook his head and said, "We have to leave quickly, they won't give up so easily."
"But they didn't chase us." Lin Rui shrugged, "Maybe they were busy dealing with other contestants, so they had no time to pay attention to us."
"No, you don't know who is directing all this behind the scenes." Jiang An said seriously, "But I know."
"The person behind the scenes?" Lin Rui frowned, "Who is that?"
"Remember the man in a suit we met after dinner? He has changed a lot in the past few years. I didn't recognize him at the time, but as soon as he spoke, I remembered who this person was." Kishi shook his head.
"Who is he?" Lin Rui frowned.
"He is a member of the management committee, right?" Zhao Jianfei frowned.
"Yes, but he also has another identity. His name is White. He was once one of the youngest instructors in the Strategic and Tactical Research Laboratory. I studied with him for a while. He is unique in commanding large-scale battles and anti-terrorism emergency operations. , is a tactical theorist. He has been employed by NATO for a long time, and I didn¡¯t expect that he was also a member of the Management Committee." Shogan whispered.
"I don't think he's that powerful. Haven't we all passed through so many levels?" Zhao Jianfei shook his head.
"He is a true tactical genius. The fact that we were able to pass so many levels this time is definitely not due to his arrangement, but the work of the people below him. If it was really due to his arrangement, it would definitely be No water leaks." Jiang An said seriously. "I guess at the very end of the first phase, he might have to create some real obstacles for us."
Lin Rui thought for a while and said, "Then let's be careful. Anyway, we only need to cross this mountain road to reach the scheduled camp. Everyone, please be careful and don't fall at the last moment."
The three of them spend a lot of time together, and they cooperate very well with each other. The three people lined up in a zigzag formation and moved very carefully in search formation. What they hold in their hands are the standard weapons of the patrol, 9mm submachine guns and 9mm rubber bullets. The rubber bullets used in quelling riots are not as deadly as metal slugs. But it is not absolutely safe. There are indeed people who have died from such bullets.
Lin Rui walked up the mountain road while carefully checking the surroundings. Zhao Jianfei and Jiang An followed behind him. After walking a few steps, Lin Rui suddenly waved his hand to stop them from moving forward, and instead lowered his body to inspect the marks on the ground.
There was a broken branch on the ground, and Lin Rui picked it up. He broke it again with force and compared the condition of the broken branches with newness. He whispered, "This dead branch fell from the tree for a while, but it broke again not long ago. This shows that someone walked this road before us, maybe this person is still active nearby."
Jiang An also nodded, turned around and whispered to them, "Come here and take a look, I have discovered something here."
What Jiang An found was a set of footprints. He frowned and said, "It's strange. It seems to you that these footprints are not military boots, but leather shoes?"
"Are they those pointed leather shoes?" Zhao Jianfei said in astonishment.
"Who would go up the mountain wearing leather shoes?" Lin Rui asked curiously, "Is it someone from the management committee?"
"Unlikely, they rarely directly participate in such things." Maang'an shook his head, looked at the boots on the ground carefully, frowned, "No! These are not ordinary leather shoes, the soles are very smooth, these are a pair of cowboy boots."
"Cowboy boots?" Lin Rui said in surprise.
"Yes, the bottom of this pair of shoes is smooth and the heel is very high. The smooth leather sole is to allow the wearer to easily insert the foot into the stirrup of a Western-style saddle or slide out of it when dismounting. And the high shoe The heel can prevent the foot from slipping from the stirrup. The most important thing is, look at this footprint, the mark behind the heel. These cowboy boots are also equipped with spurs." Maang'an's expression became even weirder.
"What kind of era is this? Why would someone wear a pair of cowboy boots with spurs? Does he think he is filming a western movie?" Lin Rui found it unbelievable.
Zhao Jianfei couldn't laugh after hearing this. He suddenly shouted, "Lie down! Take cover!"??I immediately jumped forward and fell to the ground.
Jiang An and Lin Rui also fell down at the same time. Their reactions were not unpleasant, but almost at the same time, gunshots were heard in the distance. Lin Rui felt a gust of wind in his ears, and then his earlobes felt slightly hot. This shot actually hit his right earlobe, but it was not serious, just a little scratched skin.
But he clearly felt that the other party must have used live ammunition. He was so frightened that he shrank his head and lay motionless under a tree. Since standard bullets are used, the shot just now can be a headshot as long as it is a little deflected. Lin Rui broke out in a cold sweat. This was like saving his life.
"Who is this? It shouldn't be those guards. He used live ammunition." Lin Rui lowered his voice and said, "It looks like he used a sniper rifle."
Zhao Jianfei whispered, "I know who this person is, he is Snake Eyes. No one should act rashly, he is a very powerful sniper."
"But what should we do now? Our position is too bad. We can't be suppressed by him and can't lift our heads." Lin Rui said anxiously, "We still have to rush to the designated place within the specified time. We can't be blocked by a sniper. Here?"
Jiang An whispered, "Don't make any noise. You try to drag him from the front while I touch him from the side."
Zhao Jianfei shook his head and said, "No, he is a very experienced master. He will guess your intentions."
"As long as you keep suppressing it, it will be fine." Jiang An whispered.
"Don't be kidding, two 9mm submachine guns, or rubber bullets. The other party is a sniper rifle, and our range can't reach him at all. How can we talk about fire suppression?" Lin Rui couldn't laugh or cry.
"Are there any more flash grenades?" Zhao Jianfei said anxiously.
"No more. Damn it, most of these patrolling guys are equipped with non-lethal weapons. Apart from this submachine gun, there is only a nine-millimeter pistol. And it also has rubber bullets." Lin Rui lay in the hiding place and whispered, "This continues , we have no chance of winning."
