Chapter 33: The Long Night

Wang Xizhi already felt the cold, the mountains were really cold in winter, especially at night, and she didn't eat dinner.

She didn't get squeamish because of her comfortable life.

Well, maybe it's true that because of the ease of life, she began to regress.

She followed the footprints for more than half an hour, and could tell that she was far away from the cliff, on the southeast side of the cliff, maybe a few kilometers.

And she also lost the row of footprints, because she had already walked to a place where there was no dirt and no fallen leaves.

A rocky beach, a creek.

Wang Xizhi frowned, here...... Doesn't it sound familiar?

Wait a minute...... Something is wrong, something is wrong, she has been here before, she has been here not long ago.

The flashlight was dim, Wang Xizhi simply turned it off first, glanced at the mobile phone, there was still 40% electricity, and there was a signal, Wang Xizhi gave priority to Ji sent a text message to report safety, and sent another letter to the professor, he didn't reply, the phone was called and not turned off, but no one answered, according to the time, he should have turned off automatically.

"Where are you? Lanchester, answer me. After the lady finished sending the message, she put down her phone for the time being, Ji did not reply, she crossed the stream, and sure enough, it became more and more familiar, she looked at the direction from which she came on the other side of the river, and she had seen the sunrise over the mountain here not long ago.

She could still see the traces of the last time she had set up camp.

Presumably, the underground of this mountain is a gas station.

"Oh my God......" Wang Xizhi squatted down and laid out several places with stones, namely the mountain where he camped, the small town, and the farm where they had an accident.

She hadn't paid close attention to the itinerary, because it was chosen by the young master, but when she carefully connected the distance she had traveled and the direction she had taken, she found that they had gone around in such a big circle, but by chance, they returned to the other side of the mountain.

And she followed the brigade to the top of the mountain, descended the mountain for more than half an hour, and returned to the original camp.

Wang Xizhi felt a sense of absurdity, she raised the flashlight, and turned it on again, the effect was minimal, instead of paying attention to the dim light and distracting her attention, it was better to rely on her to adapt to the dark eyes.

She was looking around like a headless fly, the chances of finding him were too slim, maybe she should go down the mountain, but she remembered the wooden house she saw the last time she went to collect firewood with Ji.

It's here, could it be a coincidence?

It's like this huge coincidence that she just discovered, coming full circle.

Wang Xizhi put down the flashlight, held the gun in both hands, and walked into the forest last time, her memory was not wrong, sure enough, there was a house, and there was a faint light in it.

Wang Xizhi saw a line of stretching footprints, extending into the room from a position about ninety degrees next to her.

"For God's sake." The lady took a deep breath, fired a shot into the sky, and immediately hid on the other side of the forest.

The door was slammed open, and a large man, estimated to be about two meters long, wearing a gray jacket, walked out, and looked around outside the door, the king leaned against the tree, and the man carried a baseball bat, as if he was not holding a gun, and walked in the direction of the sound that had just been heard.

Wang Xizhi saw that he didn't close the door, didn't close the creaking door, her movements were very light, the professor was right, she was indeed a swift leopard, but she was also a light cat, she quickly slipped into the house, the old wooden planks creaked, no matter how light it was, there was no point.

She slammed the door shut, tethered it, and emptied the table full of bottles, blocking the door. Push the cabinet hard and block the window.

Wang Xizhi saw a charged mobile phone on the table, the professor's mobile phone.

She heard someone bang on the door violently, leaned against the table blocking the door and pressed it to death, and yelled at the person outside the door, "Where is the owner of the phone?" ”

The other party didn't answer at all, and went to hit the window again, Wang Xizhi had to change his position, and when he was about to break through the window, when the cabinet was pushed open, she raised her gun and shot, three shots in a row.

But the outside of the window was empty.

The grizzly-like man suddenly rolled in, swung a baseball bat and hit her, Wang Xizhi dodged, climbed out of the window, and shot backhanded.

Although her skills were unexpected, the other party still evaded it and missed a shot.

Wang Xizhi confirmed that the other party did not have a gun, at least not temporarily, but his murder weapon obviously contained a shotgun and a 9mm caliber pistol.

"Where is he?" Wang Xizhi raised his gun to the house and asked.

"Why do you know how to do Sabetta Fighting?" A man's voice could be heard inside the house. "You're an Army Ranger?"

"Answer my question! I'll answer you! Wang Xizhi reprimanded coldly, without backing down.

"So what the man said is true?" The other party is still hiding. "He's right in there."

"I didn't see it." Wang Xizhi said coldly. "Are you still alive?"

"Absolutely, of course." The man replied to her. "He promised me one thing, that the Neutrals would help me get Cesare court-martialed, are you the one he's looking for?"

Wang Xizhi couldn't understand what he was saying, except for Cesare, it was impossible for her to sabotage the professor's words, and said coldly: "Let him see me." ”

There was the sound of walking, and the sound of the door opening, and after a few minutes, the man said to her, "You return the magazine, throw it in, and unload the bullets from the chamber, and we will negotiate, unless you want him to die." ”

Wang Xizhi hesitated for a moment and said, "Let him speak." ”

"He's unconscious, and he can't answer you." The other party held the professor in front, and by the light, he could see that his chest was rising and falling, Wang Xizhi breathed a sigh of relief, withdrew the magazine, threw it into the window, shot at the sky and unloaded the last bullet, and said: "It's okay to negotiate, wait for him to wake up." ”

She didn't know what the professor was saying, so it was best to say less and make fewer mistakes, and wait until he woke up to talk about it together.

The other party agreed, put the professor aside, sat back in his chair, opened a bottle of wine, and said, "Tell me about you, Army Ranger?" ”

"I'm not." Wang Xizhi shook his head. "I was in Darkmond, and I was with a few Army Rangers when I was regrouping, so I learned this."

"I'm in eighth." The man said.

"Sixth." She cherishes words like gold, and when she waits for the professor to wake up, she doesn't mind using conversation to calm the other person's emotions.

"And what are you doing now?" The man asked.

"Like you, vagrant." Wang Xizhi heard him mention Cesare, "and they all hope that person will go to prison soon." ”

"So, what did you lose in Darkmond?" The man asked.

Wang Xizhi clenched the pistol without bullets, gritted his teeth and said coldly: "At least I haven't lost my conscience." ”

"You think I'm crazy?" The other party asked.

Wang Xizhi took a deep breath, and almost messed up things because of her emotional out-of-control, she didn't answer.

She rested outside against a tree, and if she didn't have a gun, it was better to stay away from the other party.

Until three o'clock in the morning, neither the people outside nor the people inside spoke.

But Wang Xizhi heard a familiar voice in the conversation not long after, and asked, "Lanchester?" ”

"Ma'am?" The professor had just spoken to the other party to the point where someone had come to him, and he was still looking at the mess, and he was a little surprised: "Where are you?" ”

"Outside." Wang Xizhi said.

"You found me?" The professor's voice was strange, I don't know if it was surprise or muffled.

"Now let's talk about our deal. Trade Cesare's life for your life. The man said.
