Although Lin Shuo and Wei Xingshan got nothing, everyone was relieved to be back safely.
It's just that the atmosphere in the camp is still very depressing, because Wang Yong's body is still parked in the open space in the center of the camp.
"Wei team, who did it?"
"Did you find the beast?"
"Captain Wei, Wang Yong can't just die for nothing!"
Wei Xingshan looked at his group of soldiers, and shouted with a sullen face: "Liu Qing!"
"arrive!"
"Arrange the guard post!"
"yes!"
"The rest, gather in fifteen minutes, let's see Wang Yong off first!"
"yes!"
…
This is not in China. Everyone decided to cremate Wang Yong's body on the spot, and then bring Wang Yong's ashes back to China for burial.
Wang Yong is a man of loyalty and gets along very well with the people in the team.
During the farewell ceremony for the body, several mercenaries were weeping.
They were born in the army, and now they are working as mercenaries. Almost everyone has brushed shoulders with death and witnessed the death of their comrades.
But today, it was too sudden.
Everyone was still thinking about the hooked snake in the morning, and was shocked by the appalling "n-shaped" track down the mountain. A cold shot at noon killed a living person.
Among the mercenaries, Wei Xingshan was the only one who didn't wipe his tears. He just presided over the farewell ceremony for Wang Yong's body with red eyes, and then carried Wang Yong's body and a small half barrel of diesel oil to the other side of the mountain.
The mercenaries also followed to see their comrades off for the last time.
After more than an hour, Wei Xingshan and the others came back. Liu Qing was holding an urn in her hand, and was still wiping away tears.
Seeing Anne and Lin Shuo waiting for him at the gate of the camp, Wei Xingshan said:
"Miss Anne, please call other people. Let's have a meeting after I arrange Wang Yong's ashes."
"OK."
…
Soon, everyone gathered in Yang Tuo's tent.
Lin Shuo, Anne, Wei Xingshan, He Zihong, Liu Qing, and Yang Tuo who has limited mobility.
When everyone sat down, Anne took the lead and said, "Captain Wei, do you have anything to say to everyone?"
"You guys retreat first." Wei Xingshan said with a sullen face, "Mr. Lin and I will stay and complete this mission. The rest of you will retreat back to China."
Wei Xingshan threw out these words, and the whole tent was silent for a while.
Everyone seemed to be psychologically prepared, and there was no look of astonishment on their faces, only confusion and hesitation.
"Indeed." He Zihong sighed, with a helpless look on his face, "If it was just a problem of strange creatures, we would have to overcome the difficulties. But now that there are gunmen ambushing us outside, the nature of this matter has changed."
The delicate Liu Qing looked at Lin Shuo: "Mr. Lin, you went out with Team Wei just now, did you find anything?"
Lin Shuo glanced at Wei Xingshan when he heard the words, and then said, "This sniper is not simple. He has taken strict precautions in terms of smell. If he doesn't shoot or point the gun at me, it's hard for me to detect him." .”
"Mr. Lin, what do you mean..." Anne became serious.
"That's right, he knows me, so he will guard against me." Lin Shuo nodded.
"He not only knows Mr. Lin, but also knows me." Wei Xingshan said, "He left me a few words on the tree."
"He knows Team Wei?" Liu Qing asked in surprise.
"Yes." Wei Xingshan said, "Obviously, he knows all the information about our team. He is also a sniper who comes and goes without a trace. It can be said that he can kill whoever he wants. In this case, you If you haven’t withdrawn yet, what are you waiting for?”
"Captain Wei, did you say that the shooter left you a few words?" Yang Tuo asked at this time, "Can you tell us what the words are?"
"Wei Xingshan, long time no see." Wei Xingshan didn't hide anything, he told the truth.
"Then do you know who he is?" Yang Tuo continued to ask.
Wei Xingshan shook his head: "I haven't made many friends in my life, but I owe a lot of lives. I don't know who he is, maybe it's some kind of enemy."
"Then there shouldn't be many of your enemies who have been trained as snipers?" Yang Tuo asked.
"Unfortunately, there are quite a lot of them." Wei Xingshan said, "The distance of the shot is about 500 meters, and the fixed target is really good, but there are many such people in the troops of various countries."
"Your troops use code names to perform missions. Most people don't know your name. This person knows your name and can write Chinese, so he should be Chinese." Yang Tuo adjusted his glasses, looked at Wei Xingshan, "Captain Wei, are you sure you don't know who he is?"
"What do you mean?" Wei Xingshan stared and asked in a deep voice.
"You should know who he is." Yang Tuo said calmly.
The muscles on Wei Xingshan's face twitched, and then fell silent.
Yang Tuo, a rising star in the field of Chinese biology, broke his leg before, and now he is half lying on the ground, his face is pale, and he looks very weak.
Wei Xingshan is sitting, this strong man who is close to two meters tall, even if he is sitting, he looks like a hill.
There is a huge difference between the two people in terms of size and health.
At this time, Yang Tuo looked up at Wei Xingshan, but his expression seemed to be condescending:
"Captain Wei, you'd better not hide this crucial information from us. If the gunman is here to target you, isn't it more reasonable for you to retreat than for all of us to retreat?"
After Yang Tuo said these words, the tent fell silent again.
Liu Qing broke the calm: "I believe Team Wei will not hide anything from us. Besides, he is the action captain of our team, and we all follow his command. What should we do when he is gone?"
"I think Mr. Lin is enough for this team." Yang Tuo said, then looked at Lin Shuo, "Mr. Lin, don't you think so?"
Lin Shuo nodded calmly, "That's right."
Wei Xingshan stared at Lin Shuo, his eyelids twitched violently.
"I'm enough for this team. People like Wei Xingshan are really dispensable." Lin Shuo didn't look at Wei Xingshan at all, but looked at Yang Tuo who was half lying on the ground, "They are dispensable, But you and your teacher are pure burdens. At least your teacher can still cook us a meal, what can you do now that your legs are broken?"
Yang Tuo was stunned.
"Mr. Lin, you..." He Zihong's face also froze.
Lin Shuo ignored He Zihong, but continued to stare at Yang Tuo and said, "That sniper, no matter who he is, since he knows my specialty, he is always on guard against me noticing him. This shows that he is definitely not simply attacking Wei Xingshan. here.
If he really came here for Wei Xingshan, why would he have gone there long ago, insisting on killing people right under my nose? And it wasn't Wei Xingshan himself who killed him
Therefore, it doesn't matter whether he knows Wei Xingshan, or Wei Xingshan knows him. Even if Wei Xingshan knew him, he probably didn't know what his purpose was.
Maybe that person left that line just to divide us. "
What Lin Shuo said made Yang Tuo speechless.
Anne looked at Yang Tuo on the ground, and understood the young scholar somewhat.
In fact, she also saw Wei Xingshan's abnormality, but she believed in Wei Xingshan's character even more.
Before Wei Xingshan joined the International Society for Biological Research, she personally reviewed his resume, so she could make sure that this person was fine.
Liu Qing asked: "Mr. Lin, what is the purpose of this shooter?"
"Find it out and ask and you'll know?" Lin Shuo replied.
"But didn't you say that he can avoid your sense of smell? How do you find this?" Anne was puzzled.
"It's really hard for me alone. But I'm not alone." Lin Shuo stood up and walked outside the tent.
Everyone was curious and followed out one after another.
Lin Shuo stood in the center of the camp, looked around, and his face darkened: "Get out yet!"
Hula la.
Mynah Bird Xiaoba flapped its wings and flew out of the forest. Instead of landing on Lin Shuo's shoulder as usual, it landed on a stone five meters away from him.
The bird seemed to have done something wrong, its brows drooped, and it lowered its head and called softly, "Brother Shuo."
"You know you're afraid too?" Lin Shuo asked.
"Brother Shuo, I was wrong." Xiao Ba hurriedly said, "I flew far away yesterday and didn't stay in the nearby forest. It's too late to come back when I hear the news."
"I'll give you a chance to make amends." Lin Shuo said, "How to do it, you should have heard it just now."
"Okay!" Xiao Ba cheered up, spread a pair of black wings, and soared into the sky.
The eyes of everyone followed the bird and lifted it up, and found that the bird flew in mid-air and just hovered like this.
While fluttering its wings, Xiaoba opened his beak and let out a sharp and ear-piercing cry!
"Gee!"
The beeping was deafening, everyone felt their hearts skipped a beat, they frowned and covered their ears.
Their judgment was correct, and soon, the second cry came.
"Gee!"
"Gee!"
After three screams, Xiao Ba flapped his wings and came down from mid-air, and landed on Lin Shuo's shoulder.
Seeing that Lin Shuo ignored him, Xiao Ba said flatteringly, "Brother Shuo, I wandered all over the mountains and forests in a radius of a hundred miles yesterday, don't worry, I will take care of this matter."
"It's best to be like this. If this matter doesn't go well, you know it." Lin Shuo said lightly.
"No, no, no. We are two brothers in the same life. Brother Shuo, you still don't understand me. When did I fall off the chain?"
"If you were here last night, the beast wouldn't be able to escape."
"No one would have thought of this. This guy has been missing, who knew it would touch it in the middle of the night?"
This person and one bird just stood in the middle of the camp, chatting with each other.
Anne's group looked at the two of them, and they always felt that things didn't seem to be like this.
Xiao Ba came back, and the heaven called three times, but the sound was quite loud.
Then what
…
A mercenary on routine patrol happened to pass by the gate of the camp. He stopped and looked into the distance:
"what is that?"
Another mercenary followed his line of sight and looked up, confused for a while: "Clouds?"
"It's not like..."
"That's... a bird?"
"Yes! Bird!"
"A lot of birds!"
"There are birds everywhere!"
"Why are there so many birds?"
