Chapter 208 There is a Trap
Chapter 208 There is a Trap
The rain gradually turned from drizzle to big drops. Zhong Suhan sat under the dense branches and pulled her hat. She was now very glad that she was wearing a waterproof jacket and pants, and sweat-permeable and waterproof military boots.
Otherwise, I would be a drowned chicken now.
Opposite her was Deola, hanging in mid-air. She was awakened slowly by the rain and smelled a hint of sweetness from biscuits in the cool air.
"Teacher Deola, would you like some cookies?"
Zhong Suhan asked politely. She was holding a biscuit box in her arms. Seeing that the other party was frowning and glaring, and was planning to attract his companions, she said, "I have already given you two strong anesthesia. If you don't want to become a fool, I suggest you don't shout and attract people."
Deola gave up the idea of calling for help. She looked at the person eating cookies in front of her and said, "Your classmates have been controlled now. You are young and may not know what mercenaries are like. I..."
"You wouldn't dare." Zhong Suhan said, picking up a mushroom-shaped biscuit and throwing it into her mouth, chewing it with a crunchy sound. Her eyes were bright and her expression was indifferent, which made people feel scared. "If you touch any of them, you will be unable to leave this country. Osby is not a fool, and the people behind you are even less foolish."
What a joke. Even the lowest-ranking member of her classmate's family has a relationship with the mayor. How could a group of chess pieces walking on the edge of a knife have the courage to touch them?
For a moment, Osby thought he saw a wolf cub, an enraged wolf cub at that. "You can't defeat so many of us by yourself, so it's best to just follow us and obey us."
Indeed, but this is for Zhong Suhan, who has not experienced the three worlds in order to save his sister.
After eating the biscuits, Zhong Suhan closed her eyes and began to recuperate. As the second half of the night approached, the rain did not decrease but became heavier. She glanced at Deola who was pretending to be asleep, pretended not to have seen through her trick, jumped off the branch and walked towards the camp.
It was raining heavily and visibility was low. After Deola made sure that the people had gone far away, she tried to untie the ropes that tied her, but to no avail. Then she noticed the whistle that Zhong Suhan had taken off and hung nearby.
Zhong Suhan took off her windbreaker and shoes and let herself be thoroughly drenched by the rain. She closed her eyes and felt this rain which was completely different from Asi's, then lurked at the edge of the camp. Osby and the others had installed many lights around the area that could illuminate large areas even on rainy nights, which actually made it easier for her to observe.
In the light, several mercenaries were patrolling with guns. They were wearing rainproof clothes, and the rain hitting their clothes made the same sound as hitting the tent.
Zhong Suhan lay on the ground, quietly waiting for the opportunity. Then she heard a sharp whistle. The corners of her mouth, which were originally flat, slightly raised. Well done, Deola.
Osby, who was in the tent, heard the whistle and immediately went out of the tent. Several subordinates who were on patrol also ran over.
"Boss, it's Deola's whistle."
"Do you want to go look for him?"
"She blew the whistle. There must be something going on over there."
It was necessary to send people to check it out, but Osby was still thinking about how many people to send. There were twelve of them in total. Excluding the subordinate No. 1 who had died and Deola whose whereabouts were unknown, there were ten people left. So he selected two people to look for her following the whistle.
Zhong Suhan felt that two people were just right. If she was Osby, there would also be two people. When the number of enemies was unknown, it was best for two people to investigate.
There are eight people left, and I don’t know how many of them will be able to pass.
She lay on the ground and continued to wait.
Deola continued to blow the whistle. She didn't have the physical strength to last much longer. The anesthetic that the brat Zhong Suhan injected into her body was still taking effect. Fortunately, her companions came quickly. Soon she heard the sound of branches being broken by shoes.
But she didn't see anyone coming for a long time. Instead, she heard the sound of prey falling into a trap and the screams of her companions. She had an ominous premonition in her heart. She didn't care about the risk of Zhong Suhan continuing to give her anesthesia, and asked loudly: "Hey, I'm here, what's wrong with you!"
"There's a trap." A dying voice came, "Deola, there's a trap..."
Out of Deola's sight, one of them was hung on a tree, his body pierced with branches that had been made into arrows, and the other was lying in a pit, his body pierced by wooden spikes standing on the ground.
The blood and body temperature in their bodies were being washed away by the heavy rain. Their only hope now was the people in the camp. Instinctively they begged Deola to ask the boss and others to come and rescue them.
"Damn it!" Deola was very sure that the brat Zhong Suhan went to the camp. The other party must want to use her to lure all the people over. If she continued to ask for help, she would probably fall into the other party's trap. But if she didn't continue to ask for help, these two people would die immediately.
She decided to take a gamble, betting that the little brat Zhong Suhan could not beat the six mercenaries, so she continued to blow the whistle, blowing it urgently.
Osby in the camp was startled, and he and his subordinates looked at each other in bewilderment. Finally, they sent two more people out. This time, he warned them, "Be careful. I didn't hear any gunshots. The other party might be a martial artist, and a ruthless one at that."
"Okay, got it, boss."
Two more people went out. After they walked away, Zhong Suhan did not continue to lurk near the tent, but followed them in the direction they were heading, not too far away.
When the two men approached the trap, they heard Deola's heart-wrenching cry, "There's a trap! That brat Zhong Suhan set a trap! There's a trap!"
They were wary and did not move any closer. Instead, they used the weak light of the flashlight to look for the traps. Soon, they found their companion hanging upside down on the tree. "Hey, are you still alive?"
In the darkness, even a glimmer of light is the brightest.
Zhong Suhan used the light from the flashlight to lock the positions of the two men, and with two shots, he hit the target.
She has always had good aim.
The two men fell to the ground. Deola heard the gunshots and her companion's last whispers. She collapsed and screamed, "Zhong Suhan! Zhong Suhan, come out!"
There were already four companions who sacrificed themselves because of her, and tears mixed with rain flowed down her cheeks.
Zhong Suhan stood up from the darkness with an expressionless face and took away their guns. She had only prepared two traps in total, as she didn't have the time or energy to set more. She was very satisfied that she could get rid of four people.
Amid Deola's screams, she threw the two fallen people into the pit. The sound of flesh being pierced was covered by the sound of rain in the deep forest, along with the last sound left by the person at the bottom of the pit to the world.
Zhong Suhan glanced at Deola on the tree with no emotion, wiped the rain off his face, turned around and continued on his way to the camp.
