Chapter 381: Collusion and clever ambush
There are not many places to hunt in Hong Kong, let alone on Hong Kong Island, and there are even fewer places to go, and Chen Mu can only think of the top of Taiping Mountain, which is called Pull Flag Mountain by the locals, or the top of the mountain.
It's just that the scenery on the top of this mountain is beautiful, condescending, and there were only a few dozen families in the past, but after the British came, they began to build all kinds of mansions on the top of the mountain, and even built a cable car to the top of the mountain, where is there still a place to hunt?
Thinking of this, Chen Mudun felt bored, but Isabella said that there was a hidden canyon near Guanlongjiao, which was still untouched, and there were many large beasts in it, which was the news she heard from insiders.
Hengzhu had already agreed, and Chen Mu didn't think about it so much.
It's just that when he arrived near Huangniyong Gorge, Chen Mu saw a large cemetery from a distance, and Chen Mu inevitably remembered the tomb that was only engraved with a numeric code, and he felt a little uncomfortable.
Who would have thought that after being assassinated, the hero who stood proudly at the head of the tide could only be buried in this Happy Valley cemetery, talking about epitaphs, and even his name could not be engraved.
Chen Muyao forgot the past, and he was also full of emotion in his heart, and he only hoped that he could tell this story to future generations in the future, and no matter whether it would be a new world in the future, he could not let people forget this former hero!
Isabella is a foreigner after all, and Chen Mu didn't want her to know where the tomb was, so she wanted to stop by to pay respects.
As we walked on, the sky became a little foggy, the fog became thicker, the mountains and forests became deeper and deeper, and the cries of birds and beasts became noisy, breaking free from the hustle and bustle of the Central market, as if entering another world.
Chen Mu finally felt a little nervous about hunting, took out the hunting knife from his backpack, stuffed it into his boots, and stuffed the ammunition into the pockets of his clothes and pants to prevent accidents.
Seeing that Chen Mu was so careful, Isabella also laughed.
"It seems that you have no previous experience in hunting, what are you doing so nervously."
Chen Mu stuffed the bullet into his pocket within reach, and said to Isabella: "I haven't hunted animals, but I've been hunted, this feeling...... It's weird......"
Hearing Chen Mu's words, Isabella was also slightly stunned, took out the ammunition from the hunting bag, and took out a small mallet to reload.
This vintage* is very well made and is more of a collector's work of art than a firearm.
Even the bullets are wrapped in tarpaulin, and when loading them, you need to use a mallet to hammer them in, which is very time-consuming.
But compared to the * in Chen Mu's hand, this classical* has a longer range and higher accuracy.
Of course,* and now that they've been remodeled, and new guns are coming out, many people have made the old* old-fashioned* obsolete, and Isabella uses this for hunting, which is more nostalgic than nostalgic.
But from the side, she also has a high level of confidence in her marksmanship.
Because the British were the first to make improvements, the original team was full of smoothbore guns, and gradually added some * hands.
These * hands are extremely accurate marksmanship, calm and well-trained, with a very high degree of discipline elite, can be regarded as snipers.
Seeing that Isabella was unhurriedly reloading with a small mallet, Chen Mu also stuffed two bullets into the * and snapped them back.
The heavy * seemed to be injected into the soul, and suddenly changed from lifeless wood and iron to a murder weapon with great lethality!
Chen Mushicai didn't say it casually, he did feel extremely uneasy in his heart, this intuition was the most direct reason why he was able to live until now, and he had always believed in this feeling very much.
Perhaps because his father and brother were killed, Chen Mu lost his sense of security, so he had such a strong premonition, no matter what, this feeling is worth noting.
After the shotgun was reloaded, this uneasiness gradually subsided, but Chen Mu did not relax his vigilance because of this.
The fog in the canyon is very heavy, there are clouds and mist overhead, the sunlight can't penetrate through, and the visibility is not very high, Chen Mudi looked around, and there were no footprints of wild beasts on the ground.
But he found something else!
He just glanced at it, then quickly looked away and said to Isabella, "You've been here before?" ”
This was a simple question, but Isabella thought for a short time before shaking her head at Chen Mu and replying, "No, I just heard that there is such a place." ”
Seeing that Chen Mu didn't speak, she continued: "Isn't hunting more interesting and exciting because of unknown dangers? If you know everything, you lose the fun of hunting, don't you? ”
Chen Mu also nodded, and at this time, Isabel stretched out her hand to lift the hunting bag, and Chen Mu hurriedly stepped forward and snatched the hunting bag.
"Let's come on, it's getting harder and harder to walk ahead, you'd better conserve your strength."
Isabella glanced at Chen Mu, didn't say more, and took the lead in moving forward.
After walking for another while, Chen Mu kept looking at the road under his feet, and finally couldn't help it, raised the shotgun in his hand and resisted Isabella's back!
Isabella turned around slowly, pretending to be stunned, "What are you going to do?" ”
Chen Mu was very disappointed, and said to Isabella: "I have been looking at my feet just now, this canyon is very humid, the ground is very soft, but there are a lot of footprints......
Isabella was a little angry: "What does it have to do with the footprints on the ground and you pointing a gun at me?" I'm not the only one who knows about this place, and it's not strange that Orion went up to the mountains to hunt, so why do you suspect that I'm going to harm you! ”
Chen Mu shook his head: "I didn't say that you were going to harm me, it's because you have a weak heart, right?" ”
Isabella's lips twitched, and she stared at Chen Mu with an angry face: "It's not that I'm worried that I'll hurt you, what are you doing with a gun pointing at me!" ”
Isabella is not a person who can't lie, but is a woman who is extremely good at disguising herself, but maybe Chen Mu's move was too sudden, which caught her off guard, and finally made Chen Mu see the flaw.
"I put a gun on you, not necessarily because I doubt you, I can't because I covet your beauty, and now it's a barren mountain and a wild mountain, I want to plot against you?"
Isabella pinched the * in her hand, put her chest on the muzzle of Chen Mu's gun, and said provocatively: "You will be such a person?" ”
Chen Mu's muzzle subconsciously shrank back, frowned, and asked Isabella, "Say, who asked you to bring me here." ”
Isabella's face was cloudy, but she still sighed lightly after all: "You offended Duke May before, do you think he will do this?" ”
"Others may not know, but he is the son of the chief superintendent, wouldn't he know that you got in the way and sabotaged their plan to occupy the walled city?"
"Dukemay ......" Chen Mu finally understood that Isabella had a relationship with Lady Charlena, and she was holding the batch of counterfeit banknotes in her hand, Isabella wanted to help Dukeme and get rid of herself, which was reasonable!
It's just that Chen Mu didn't understand that he went to find her in order to find out the news, it was a temporary idea, she brought Chen Mu to hunt, it should also be a temporary decision, how could she ambush people here in advance?
Just thinking about it, Chen Mu suddenly felt that the fog in his heart was all cleared at this moment!
He finally understood why Inspector Zonghua wanted to come to the door in person and invite him to come out to box!
He finally understood why such a big detective didn't even have information about the British fighter!
Because he knew that Chen Mu was a cautious person, since he agreed to boxing, he would inevitably investigate, and Chen Mu was able to investigate only two connections, one was Henry Wilson and the other was Isabella!
Henry Wilson was also British after all, and Isabella was friendly with Madame Charlena, and at this juncture she wanted to seek help from the British, so there was no reason not to agree to Dukemay's conditions!
This also means that Inspector Lu Yunchen acted in a play and sent Chen Mu to Isabella, and then Isabella tricked Chen Mu here!
Chen Mu didn't know if the black bone red was involved, but Lu Yunchen was Du Kemei's person, there was no doubt about it!
It is also thanks to my own uneasiness and observation of the footprints on the ground, otherwise I don't know how to die today!
Chen Mu glanced around, but he could see that there were many shadows around, as if countless figures were moving around in the mist!
"How many people are here this time?" Chen Mu lowered his voice and asked Isabella.
Isabella was also unambiguous: "You have to make it clear, I have no personal grudges with you, I appreciate men like you more......"
"Stop talking nonsense! Tell me, how many people Dukeme sent! ”
Isabella shook her head: "I don't know, I just brought you in according to his request, I originally thought that I would find an excuse to leave, and they would be able to do something to you, but I didn't expect to be recognized by you in advance......"
After saying this, Isabella suddenly felt a little remorseful!
Chen Mu has captured the subtlety in his words!
Isabella is the daughter of the French consul Trio, and no matter how bold Duke Mei is, he will not shoot her, so she asked her to find an excuse to separate from Chen Mu, so that their killer can do it to Chen Mu.
"Gun down!" Chen Mu lowered her voice, and Isabella had no choice but to throw * on the ground.
Chen Mu picked it up, but it went around her back, put his chest against her, and said in her ear: "Since this is the case, you brought me in, take me out now!" ”
Isabella also bit her lower lip, both angry and a little ashamed, and she didn't know if it was because her trick was discovered, or because she felt "betrayed" about Chen Mu.
Just as he was about to walk forward, there was a bang, and the pine tree next to him was interrupted by the waist!
In an instant, gunshots rang out, and bullets rained down on the surrounding trees!
"Don't shoot! It's me! Isabella! I'm still here! I'm still here! ”
Isabella's words were quickly drowned in the sound of gunfire, and it was thanks to Chen Mu who hugged her, rolled in the place, and rolled down the small slope to a ditch, otherwise she would have been beaten into a sieve by the rain of bullets!
Isabella didn't expect that her words didn't work, and at this time, her face was frightened, and her heart was clearly shrouded in the fear of death, because she knew in her own heart that Du Kemei was obviously crazy, and in order to kill Chen Mu, even if she killed her, the daughter of the consul, in this barren mountain and wilderness, he would not hesitate to do it!
