Xia Lei walked out of the studio early the next afternoon. In more than two days, he had already modified the sniper rifle that Long Bing asked him to help modify. He packed the parts of the domestic sniper rifle and the AS50 sniper rifle in the engineering plastic box that Ke Jie brought. He has no experience in using sniper rifles, but he has extraordinary abilities and confidence in the field of machining. Therefore, even if he has no experience in using sniper rifles, he is sure that the performance of the domestic sniper rifles he modified is better than the imported AS50 sniper rifles. It is much superior, Long Bing will definitely be satisfied.
There was still a little time before get off work. When passing by the office building, Xia Lei hesitated and ultimately did not return to his office. He put the engineering plastic box into the trunk of the BMW m6 and prepared to drive away.
"Lei." Liang Siyao came out of the office building and called Xia Lei, "Where are you going?"
"I...I sent the gun to Long Bing." Xia Lei did not tell the truth, "She urged me several times."
"Are you coming back for dinner?" Liang Siyao asked.
Xia Lei smiled and said, "No need to wait for me, you and Xiaoxue can eat together."
Liang Siyao said with concern: "Drive carefully and come back early."
"Well, I'm leaving." Xia Lei felt warm in his heart and got into the cab.
Liang Siyao walked to the car window, and regardless of the company employees watching, she leaned in through the car window and kissed Xia Lei's lips.
At this moment, Xia Lei really wanted to tell her the truth, but he still swallowed the words. His father Xia Changhe has disappeared inexplicably. His career and identity are in doubt, and there is even a possibility that he will not see the light of day. Before he figured out the truth, even if he believed Liang Siyao again, he couldn't tell her.
"Hey, you two, when are you going to send me wedding invitations? I'm waiting to drink your wedding wine." Qin Xiang poked his head out of the window of his office, smiling.
Liang Siyao then let go of Xia Lei and glared at Qin Xiang, "I won't invite you."
Xia Lei smiled and said: "Qin Xiang, don't listen to her. Your wedding wine will definitely be indispensable. I have already thought about it, and you will be the best man."
"Ah! Really? That's great..." Qin Xiang clapped her hands at the window, then said, "Can I be the bridesmaid?"
Liang Siyao's expression was very strange.
Xia Lei drove away in a flash.
In the evening, Xia Lei drove to the vicinity of Dayangshan Cemetery.
The cemetery was closed at this time, and Xia Lei didn't even think about going through the main entrance. The less people know about such a meeting, the better. If you go through the main entrance, the person guarding the door will be left to see your face, and maybe register or something. So he parked the car in an inconspicuous corner, climbed over the wall and entered the cemetery.
Entering the cemetery, Xia Lei walked up the hillside along the road paved with bluestones in the cemetery area. The cemetery is built according to the mountain, and the tombstones stand like dominoes in the dusk. Each tombstone represents a life and condenses a person's life's joys, sorrows, joys and all the stories. With so many tombstones crowded together, the cemetery has an eerie and eerie atmosphere that makes people feel depressed.
"It's so hard to choose a place, but why would you choose to meet here?" Xia Lei thought in his mind, but his steps were not slow at all, and he kept walking towards the highest point of the cemetery. During this process, his eyes were also observing the surrounding environment alertly, looking for the Russian woman.
Ten minutes later, Xia Lei reached the end of the cemetery. Beyond that was the undeveloped forest. You can go further up to the top of the mountain, but the top of a huge mountain is densely covered with trees and grass. Even if he has the ability to see through, how easy is it to find someone in such a link
Xia Lei looked at the watch on his hand. It was already 7:50 pm, and there were still ten minutes left before the agreed meeting time. He thought in his heart: "She asked me to meet. Maybe she was secretly paying attention to me when I came in. She will definitely show up when the time comes. If I rush into the forest, I might miss the meeting with her." "
Having made up his mind, Xia Lei stayed at the junction of the cemetery and the forest to wait.
Ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye.
Suddenly rustling footsteps came from the forest behind Xia Lei. Xia Lei followed the sound and soon found the Russian girl. She slowly approached this side of the forest, cautiously. But she didn't know that Xia Lei's sight had penetrated several trees and saw her clearly.
When the Russian girl was about to walk out of the woods, Xia Lei looked through her and discovered that she was carrying a pistol and a saber. This discovery made him suddenly nervous, and he subconsciously took a few steps back.
"Don't be nervous." The Russian girl walked out of the woods and said in fluent Chinese: "I am not your enemy."
Xia Lei did not let down his guard, "Who are you?"
The Russian girl said: "It doesn't matter who I am, you will know it when it's time to let you know."
Xia Lei was not satisfied with this answer, "You asked me to meet, and I came, but you are not sincere at all."
"We don't need sincerity, what we need is trust."
"Where is he?" Xia Lei glanced at the forest behind the Russian girl, but did not find the man who looked almost exactly like his father Xia Changhe.
The Russian girl said: "You don't need to read, he has more important things, and he is not in China during this time. He is very worried about your safety, which is why he asked me to come to see you."
These words were like a hammer hitting Xia Lei's heart, making him panic. Although the Russian girl did not say that the man was his father Xia Changhe, the sentence "He is very concerned about your safety" was an obvious hint that the mysterious man was his father Xia Changhe!
At this moment, Xia Lei's heart was filled with various emotions, including excitement, happiness, anger, confusion, and sadness. These emotions were like ropes binding him, making it difficult for him to breathe!
"Don't blame him, he has some last resort reasons." The Russian girl said.
Xia Lei smiled bitterly, "Difficulties? What kind of difficulties can make a man abandon his family and children? You don't know how I have lived these years. Do you know what I felt when I tore up the admission notice from Kyoto University? Such a feeling, let me tell you, it feels like death!"
"Aren't you living a good life now? He is proud of you."
Xia Lei said: "I don't need him to be proud of me. I just want to meet him and hear his explanation."
The Russian girl said: "This day will come, believe me, one day he will come back to you, and he will explain everything to you."
Xia Lei looked at her straightly, "Who are you?"
"I am his assistant." The Russian girl said, "My name is Yevgenia. I can only tell you so much."
"Did you invite me here just to help him convey your concern for me?"
Yevgenia said: "Of course not. Your father asked me to tell you that that pill is very precious. You should not keep it. You should take it, the sooner the better."
Xia Lei was shocked again. He remembered the time he found the Russian warning "Be careful" under the glass bottle after his father Xia Changhe failed. Now it seems that his father Xia Changhe has returned home and knows that he did not take the last pill.
Xia Lei was silent for a while before saying, "Why do you want me to take that pill? My health is very good, I don't need to take any medicine."
"He is your father. You have to believe this. He will not hurt you in any way. On the contrary, everything he does is for your good. He asks you to take that pill, so just take it. . I don’t know much about it, I can’t tell you more,” Yevgenia said.
"That's it?" Xia Lei was hesitant, did he really want to take that pill
Yevgenia said: "One more thing, you have been targeted and are in a very dangerous situation."
"Who is targeting me? Why?" Xia Lei's heart was full of doubts, and he naturally thought of the American spy.
Yevgenia said: "It's yours..."
Suddenly, half of Yevgenia's chest exploded, and blood and human body fragments splashed all over Xia Lei. Under the great impact, Yevgenia's body flew back and flew several steps before falling to the ground.
Yevgenia died, died at the most critical moment.
Xia Lei suddenly fell to the ground, then rolled and hid between two tombstones. His eyes quickly searched the surroundings, but unfortunately he could not find the killer of Yevgenia. The weapon used by the opponent is obviously a sniper rifle with very superior performance, which can kill targets two kilometers away. At such a distance, his left eye could not see through a certain obstacle to find the sniper hiding behind.
It seemed that we were only one step away from the truth, but that distance suddenly turned into a chasm between yin and yang, which could no longer be crossed.
Xia Lei's heart was filled with anger and fear. He didn't know if he was also the target of the sniper, so he dared to move. He was also thinking about the identity of the sniper, but he had no clue.
The sniper's target seemed to be only Yevgenia, and he did not fire a second shot.
The sky was getting darker and darker. Xia Lei closed his left eye and only used his right eye to look at Yevgenia, who was lying in a pool of blood. Only when he was sure that he could no longer see him clearly under normal circumstances did he carefully move from the two pieces. He crawled out of the gap between the tombstones and slowly crawled to Yevgenia's side.
Yevgenia had not breathed for a long time, and the huge wound had drained all the blood from her body. There was a large blood stain on the ground, and a strong smell of blood filled the air.
"I'm sorry..." Xia Lei felt guilty. He reached out and took out a leather bag from Yevgenia's pocket, and then disappeared into the darkness with the bag.
Under normal circumstances, he should call the police or call Long Bing, but Yevgenia's identity was unclear, and she also had a gun on her. He couldn't explain to the police or Long Bing why he appeared here, let alone how Yevgenia died. What's more, Yevgenia is the assistant of his father Xia Changhe. If his father's affairs are involved, he will be even less able to face the police and Long Bing.
After careful consideration, he finally made the decision to leave alone.
