Chapter 30 (I) The Sniper Couple
Whether Tang Shuxing's speed can run away, he is not too sure now, because there are too many obstacles around, run out of the gang as fast as possible, if he trips, the chance of being hit is also very high.
"Have you thought about it?" The voice of the second sniper came over the intercom, "Or, tell me, the identity of the guy who escaped alive in the minefield before, who is it, what is it for, and why can he escape?" β
What the? Tang Shuxing now understands that the second sniper obviously had a chance to kill the first sniper, but he didn't do it, and deliberately trapped him, the purpose was also to find out Gu Huaiyi's identity, and it also showed that Gu Huaiyi was not dead and escaped.
This guy had found himself, Gu Huaiyi and Tom before, it should have been after they evacuated, he observed that Gu Huaiyi had escaped from the minefield, and he was very surprised by Gu Maniac's way of escaping, so he wanted to find out about it.
But what's the focus right now? That's how Madman Gu escaped!
Although Tang Shuxing believed from the beginning that Gu Maniac could escape, but after thinking about it, what could he do if he could escape in that environment? Even if you enter the state of corpse and escape quickly without obstacles around, it is impossible not to be injured, and you will have to lose arms and legs.
"Why don't you ask him." Tang Shuxing said bluntly, "Isn't it the most direct to ask the person concerned about some things?" β
"You'd better show some sincerity." The second sniper said coldly, "Otherwise, I won't be able to save you, so let's do it, you explain your purpose first." It's up to me to judge if you're telling the truth. β
"Well, we're trying to get out of here, so we're going to go to the CIA branch across the street from the U.S. Consulate for help." Tang Shuxing told the truth, just concealed some details and others.
The second sniper listened, and asked, "Are you from the CIA?" β
"No, it's not, I'm Chinese." Tang Shuxing replied, "But someone directed us there, saying that there is a basement under the CIA substation, and there is a team of people stationed there. β
"Indeed, there are people stationed there. But they're all dead. "The second sniper gave Tang Shuxing a desperate answer." But there was also a platoon of American soldiers in the U.S. consulate, and they were trapped there, they had satellite communication equipment in their hands, but at night. Helicopters do not risk coming to the rescue. So you can only wait until daylight. β
After speaking. The second sniper, crouched behind the trunk of an abandoned car, said, "Okay, you're not lying, waitβ" he said. The Sniper raised his M200 sniper rifle on the glass frame of the tail box and aimed at the position of the first Sniper, the first of his magazines containing incendiary grenades, and the next four were armor-piercing.
The reason for this configuration is that he can't hit the sniper head-on in the dead end, so he can only hit the opponent's approximate location with incendiary grenades, and after the burning flames frighten the opponent, then hit the outside of his fortifications with armor-piercing bullets, and then make up for it.
Other than that, there is no better strategy.
However, just when his sniper night vision goggles were aimed at the approximate location of the other party, he was surprised to see Gu Huaiyi, who was holding a Yin Bee, standing on one side, quietly approaching the guy like a ghost, and then standing behind him, holding the Yin Bee with both hands, and slowly pressing the tip of the knife against the sniper's head.
How did that guy touch it? The second sniper's finger released the trigger, and Gu Huaiyi's Yin Bee had already plunged into the guy's skull at an extremely slow speed - the iron-sharpened katana was too sharp.
When the bee plunged into the sniper's head, the sniper's eyes widened, and the index finger on the trigger subconsciously tightened, firing the last bullet before he died.
After the gunshot, Tang Shuxing rushed out of the flower bed and rushed towards the opposite shop, and then curled up and hid behind a few pieces of broken cement, Tom grabbed the gun and looked at him, although he didn't know what was going on outside the road, but he also looked out of the road to take a look before, and it was a miracle that Tang Shuxing could hide in alive.
"Who the hell are you?" The second sniper asked over the intercom, "Who the hell is that guy with a katana?" β
Tang Shuxing guessed from the sniper's words that it must have been Gu Huaiyi who killed the first sniper, and he was also relieved in his heart, and immediately pressed the walkie-talkie and replied: "Who are you?" β
"Chinese." The man replied.
"Me too." Tang Shuxing replied with a smile, and as soon as he finished answering, the sniper appeared at the tattered back door of the store, his face was painted with camouflage camouflage, wearing a homemade camouflage suit, holding an M200 sniper rifle, he glanced at Tang Shuxing and Tom, and turned his head to signal them to follow him.
Tang Shuxing and Tom glanced at each other, followed the sniper through the building, shuttled for more than twenty minutes, and finally came to the location of the first sniper, and Gu Huaiyi also stood there with a yin bee with a strange smile.
"Crazy Gu, you're fine, right?" Tang Shuxing ran over, squatted in front of Gu Huaiyi, and when he got closer, he felt that Gu Huaiyi's breathing was very chaotic, obviously injured, but there were no injuries on the surface of his body, so he subconsciously reached out to touch Gu Huaiyi's back, and when he touched it, he found that his back was almost completely blown up, and a bone in his left back shoulder was exposed, but this kid was still smiling.
Gu Huaiyi glanced at the sniper who was checking the corpse, and said to Tang Shuxing, "I said, I will get out smoothly." β
"But...... How did you get out? "Tom was surprised, what kind of speed does this guy have to be to run? It's simply not human!
This sentence was originally what Tang Shuxing wanted to ask, but Tom took the lead in asking, and Tang Shuxing suddenly had a terrible answer in his heart at this time, but he didn't continue to ask like Tom, but took off his clothes, rummaged through the dead sniper's belongings, found first-aid kits and other items, and helped Gu Huaiyi do a simple bandage.
"His injuries are so severe that he should have collapsed and must be sterilized and bandaged immediately. Otherwise, he would have had a fever, then a coma, and then an infection and died. The sniper took the dead guy's belongings, left the body behind, turned and left, "Follow me!" β
The trio followed the sniper out of the crumbling building, sliding down the crumbling slope behind it, weaving from shop to shop again, and finally to the warehouse of a small supermarket where the drain lid was opened. Then he went down.
"This is the only large underground waterway in the whole of Astaya. Originally, the British invested, but because the business between the last countries could not be negotiated, they eventually withdrew their funds and left, leaving behind these large sewers, half of which were built and never put into use. "The sniper slides down the iron ladder. and helped Tang Shuxing to hug Gu Huaiyi down.
"Seniors. Thank you very much. After Tang Shuxing slid down the iron ladder. Thanks to the sniper.
"Senpai?" The sniper lowered his gun, unloaded his camouflage suit, and lit the old lantern. "You and I must be about the same age, right?" Saying that, the man held up the old-style horse lantern and looked around, Tang Shuxing and the others saw that there was an exaggerated underground waterway below, which could drive a small car, and the man remodeled it, there were beds and tables, and almost everything that should be in life was available, but from the horse lantern he was carrying, it should be very inconvenient to use electricity here.
The man put down the lantern again and shouted inside: "Wanqing, there are guests, take out the medicine box, and find something to eat by the way, they seem to be hungry for a long time." β
After the man finished speaking, a simple response from a woman came from inside, and the three of them were a little surprised, they didn't expect that there were women here, and then they saw a woman in camouflage clothes appear on the corner in front of the sewer. The woman looked like a Chinese, with her hair coiled, a hairpin in her bun, and a child no more than a year old in her arms, and the hand holding the child also held a palm thunder pistol, and an AK74 rifle hanging under her shoulder.
"Wanqing?" Gu Huaiyi repeated the woman's name in a low voice at this time, raised his eyes to look at her carefully, and then turned his head to look at the man who was washing off his face camouflage in front of the mirror.
At this time, the man had already erased all the camouflage, took off his outer clothes, and was wearing only a vest. Tang Shuxing saw in the mirror that the man's appearance was much younger than he imagined, but his voice sounded like a man in his forties, even though his beard was cleanly shaven, but that somewhat rough face was full of stories.
Excellent skills, strong figure, and obvious scars on the surface of the body can be seen that this man must have been a professional soldier.
"You guys sit down first, I'll get the first aid kit." After observing them for a while, the woman turned around and went to the corner of the sewer, where there was a simple bed, and after the woman put down the child, she asked, "Daxun, the medicine box seems to be on your side." β
"Daehuo?" Gu Huaiyi's hand trembled, his eyes kept falling on the man's body, watching the man rummage under the table, then dig out several medical kits, and walk to Gu Huaiyi together.
"What's your name?" The man named Daxun asked coldly, and at the same time took out potions, gauze, bandages, and other things from the medicine box, "These medicines that are common on weekdays are now very valuable. β
"My name is Tang Shuxing, and his name is Tom." After Tang Shuxing finished his introduction, he looked at Gu Huaiyi again and said, "His name is Gu Huaiyi." β
"Well, you heard, my name is Daxun, the one who held the child just now is my wife, called Wanqing, we are all Chinese." Daxun said, looking up at Tom, "You and the two of them didn't go all the way, did you?" You must have met in this city for a short time, and you're not a Marine. β
Tom was surprised, he didn't know what this strange man had just met would know so much.
Daxun smiled, patted his chest, and pointed to Tom's chest again, "When I came down earlier, I accidentally touched it, and there is a pocket for documents in your coat, but you have sewn another thing that is important to you in it. β
"Youβ" Tom was surprised, and subconsciously touched his chest, for there was indeed something hidden there that was worthless, but very precious to himβan armband, a ranger's armband, which he had sewn there with his own hands.
"I used to be a Ranger like you, but that was many years ago." Daxun waved his hand to ask Tang Shuxing to help him, and the two wrapped Gu Huaiyi's back with gauze left and right, and then carefully wrapped the bandage, and then Daxun turned around and walked to an unplugged freezer, took out beer from it and handed it to them.
Tang Shuxing was only in his hand, he didn't drink alcohol in the first place, not to mention that now he was a mutant and couldn't eat the food and drink of normal humans.
"Here, here's some biscuits." The woman called Wanqing walked out from the corner with a frown, and immediately stretched her brows after seeing Tang Shuxing and the others, handed over the compressed biscuit box she was holding in her hand, and said in a low voice, "My child just fell asleep, please be quiet." β
Everyone nodded, and Tom took the biscuits, which he recognized as high-calorie, compressed biscuits - this kind of rations had only been distributed to front-line combat units last year, and normally this box of biscuits could allow a soldier to survive in a desperate situation for half a month, provided that there was clean drinking water, of course.
"Eat, there is no problem with the cookies, these are all made by me secretly before the accident at the US Consulate." Wei Daxun sat on the empty ammunition box on one side, drinking beer, and next to him was an RPK light machine gun, but the magazine was withdrawn.
"This ......," Tang Shuxing looked at Daxun, "what should I call him?" β
Just before Daxun could answer, Gu Huaiyi, who was sitting there resting, suddenly asked: "Friend, I want to ask you about two people, they are also husband and wife, one is called Wei Daxun and the other is Wang Wanqing." β
After Gu Huaiyi asked, Daxun was about to raise the beer bottle that was placed in his mouth and stopped, and Wanqing, who was walking around the corner and was about to go back to see the child, also paused for a moment, and then slowly walked in. Tang Shuxing looked at Gu Huaiyi sideways, and also understood that Gu Maniac was referring to the couple in front of him, but why did he know them?
Daxun didn't answer but looked at Gu Huaiyi, and Gu Huaiyi also looked at him, sat there and continued: "Many years ago, there was a ranger named Wei Daxun who retired and then became mercenaries with his brother, because they didn't know anything but fighting. He was a Chinese-American, and it was smooth sailing, but when he returned to China with his employer, he had an accident in an ancient tomb in China, and everyone except him and his employer died, including his Ranger brother......"
Daxun took a sip of beer and looked at Gu Huaiyi, Gu Huaiyi continued: "After that incident, they were deported and sent back to the United States, but they were threatened by the U.S. Department of Abyss Science soon after, and had to return to China. β
When Gu Huaiyi first said this, the woman named Wanqing appeared around the corner with an AK74 assault rifle, aimed at Gu Huaiyi's head, and pressed her fingers on the trigger, with an expression that could explode Gu Huaiyi's head at any time.
Tang Shuxing looked at Wanqing, and then looked sideways at Gu Huaiyi, Gu Huaiyi didn't say any more, while Daxun leaned down and looked at him and said, "It's okay, you go on, what happened later?" (To be continued......)
