He rubbed his eyes and looked out the door . It was still quiet underneath the moonlight . Not far away, the jeep was refueling, but the tall man who had just walked towards them had disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye .
Huo Shaoheng’s actions were too fast . He was so fast that he had already disappeared before these people could react . It was as if he had vanished into thin air .
“What should we do? That person is too sly . Did he discover us? ”
“That’s impossible, right? We didn’t go out at all . ”
“Let’s give it a try… ”
The people in the room whispered to each other through the automated walkie-talkie in small voices .
Huo Shaoheng observed for a while but saw that the other party still wasn’t making any movements . He was about to leave quietly .
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sound of a sniper rifle equipped with a silencer rang out at his feet .
Then, it stirred up dust everywhere on the ground in front of the convenience store .
The other party was baiting him .
Huo Shaoheng quickly stopped dead in his tracks and continued to observe from behind the colonnade .
He was in a small corridor in front of the convenience store . There were a few thick, wavy beams at the top of the corridor, and there was an open roof .
Leaving a mottled mark on the ground, the moonlight shone through the gaps between the beams .
Huo Shaoheng tried his best to not let the other party discover his location .
However, the dull gunshots were especially jarring in the quiet Siberian night .
When Vladimir and the driver, who were refueling, heard the gunshots, they immediately pulled out their guns and fired back .
There was a gunfight at the gas station, and the danger could be big or small .
So the two of them only fired a few shots, and upon seeing that the other side didn’t make any movements, they stopped firing . They simply hid and watched their movements from the convenience store .
The driver said quietly, “Is it the same group of people from the road this morning? ”
Vladimir nodded . “I think it’s the same group of people . ”
They had been escaping all day, and thought that they had gotten rid of those people, but they were actually waiting to ambush them here .
The middle-aged driver murmured, “These people are pretty smart… They knew that we needed gas, so they calculated the distance and waited for us at the gas station here . ” Suddenly remembering Gu Nianzhi, who was still in the car, he quickly stuck his head out and knocked on the window .
In confusion, Gu Nianzhi looked at him from inside the car .
“Get down quickly! They’re chasing us again! It’s even more unsafe in the car if there’s a gunfight at a gas station! ” The middle-aged driver desperately gestured at Gu Nianzhi and mouthed .
If there was an explosion at the gas station, their jeep would definitely be engulfed in flames .
Gu Nianzhi immediately understood and remembered Huo Shaoheng, who had gone to the convenience store because she wanted hot chocolate .
Her heart skipped a beat, and Gu Nianzhi almost jumped out of the car . “Where’s Major General Huo?!”
The middle-aged driver silently pointed in the direction of the convenience store .
Gu Nianzhi turned and looked around the outside of the convenience store under the mottled moonlight . The store was brightly lit, but where were the people?
“They’re hiding, but don’t worry, Major General Huo is fine . ” The middle-aged driver gently comforted her and pulled her to hide behind him .
The middle-aged driver, who was short and broad like a bear, was able to block three people of Gu Nianzhi’s size . Of course, it was safe to hide behind him .
Gu Nianzhi was worried about Huo Shaoheng, so she said anxiously, “I’ll call him back . Let’s go quickly! Is the car’s fuel tank full yet?”
“Almost, almost . ” Vladimir whispered, “But even if we leave, they won’t let us go . ”
“We escaped this morning . We’ve been escaping for a day and night, but they’ve been chasing us all this time . So do you think continuing to escape will work? ”
Gu Nianzhi was speechless, but she couldn’t remain indifferent and watch Huo Shaoheng fall in danger .
Her mind raced as her gaze fell on the luggage in the back of the jeep .
She and Huo Shaoheng each had a gun .
Huo Shaoheng had said that he had a gun, but it was in the luggage and he hadn’t brought it with him .
But she remembered that she hadn’t seen anything that looked like a gun in Huo Shaoheng’s suitcase .
If Huo Shaoheng hadn’t lied, then he probably brought spare parts that could be used to assemble the gun!
Gu Nianzhi gestured to the driver to open the back door .
The driver didn’t understand and simply looked at her in confusion .
Gu Nianzhi was about to explain, but Huo Shaoheng had already backed away .
Sounding like beans being fried, a series of gunshots rang out in the quiet night sky .
Gu Nianzhi stuck her head out and saw Huo Shaoheng, zig-zagging like lightning under the moonlight, running at lightning speed . In the blink of an eye, he was beside her and the chauffeur .
Huo Shaoheng didn’t say anything . He pulled open the trunk with one hand and took his luggage down .
With the bullet-proof jeep blocking the way, Huo Shaoheng opened his luggage and took out the parts he had put in the luggage . He quickly assembled them .
In less than ten seconds, a miniature sub-machine gun with an infrared night vision scope was born in Huo Shaoheng’s hands .
Vladimir saw it and held it in for a long time before saying, “It’s illegal for foreigners to carry guns in our country . ”
“Stop It . Just pretend you didn’t see it . ” Gu Nianzhi retorted curtly, “Do you have these guns?”
Gu Nianzhi’s gaze swept past the small pistols in the hands of the two KGB officers .
They were both semi-automatic weapons, and their firepower was definitely superior to their small pistols .
The driver closed his eyes and muttered, “I didn’t see anything… I didn’t see anything… ”
Vladimir: ” … ”
Gu Nianzhi continued, “If Huo Shao didn’t have a gun, would we have been able to defeat those bandits? ”
The driver widened his eyes . “How do you know they’re bandits?”
“Since they dared to attack the KGB’s car, how could they be regular soldiers?” Gu Nianzhi scoffed .
Vladimir rubbed his nose and glared at the driver .
Huo Shaoheng held a gun in one hand and a bullet in the other . He had picked it up in front of the convenience store earlier . He said to the two KGB officers, “Pay attention their tactics and strategies, as well as the weapons and bullets they used . They are probably members of the Russian Mafia . ”
Vladimir and the driver’s expressions changed drastically at the same time . “Are you sure?!”
The Russian mafia was a special gang that was notorious throughout the Blue Planet .
After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the government’s control over the country fell to its lowest point .
It was at this time that the Russian mafia came into being and filled the power gap .
At the beginning of their development, they were different from the small-scale gangs of other countries .
Their starting point was very high .
Because they started by smuggling weapons .
When the Soviet Union collapsed, many satellite nations lost their governments to anarchy overnight .
Who knows how many weapons ended up in their hands .
From small AK-47 assault rifles, RGP-7 Bazookas, to large T-34 tanks, mig-15 fighters, to strategic weapons Katyusha Bazookas, even nuclear materials and small nuclear bombs were taken out by them and sold all over the Blue Planet .
The weapons of the former Soviet Union were excellent, resistant, and especially lethal .
It could be said that after the Russian mafia entered the modern stage of history, the firepower of the entire Blue Planet’s Mafia had risen to a unrpecedented level .
Relying on the powerful Soviet weapons that could rival the regular army, many of the mafia bosses in small countries had even entered the political scene and become national leaders .
However, all of this had become history after President Pushin came to power .
President Pushin was a famous iron-fisted ruthless politician, and he was once the commander-in-chief of the KGB .
With his help and the backing of the strongest KGB in history, the Russian mafia was smashed into pieces overnight, and they were no longer as influential as before .
Not long ago, Russia had confiscated all the weapons of the Russian Mafia . The guns and ammunition that had piled up into a small hill had awed the Russian population .
“How dare they attack the KGB?! Are they hoping that we’ll surround them again?” Vladimir cursed in a low voice .
Huo Shaoheng didn’t reply . He turned around and leaned against the body of the jeep . He raised his gun and aimed at the convenience store . With a bang, he shot out the incandescent light at the entrance of the convenience store!
Then he aimed at the wires that had been pulled out from the roof of the convenience store .
Bang!
With a gunshot, a few sparks flew from the wires, and the entire convenience store fell into darkness .
Huo Shaoheng had shot out the wires .
The driver was so shocked that his eyes were about to pop out of their sockets .
He stammered, “This, this, this… This is a gas station! You’re going to cause a big explosion!”
If even the slightest spark landed in the tank, they would all be finished!
“I know what I’m doing . ” Huo Shaoheng didn’t even raise his head . He looked through the infrared night vision scope . In the cross-shaped scope, a few figures gradually appeared .
“They’re out . Get in the car and get ready to leave . ” Huo Shaoheng waved his hand . He had become the leader of the four of them .
Even Vladimir couldn’t help but obey his orders .
The driver went around the back of the car and quickly pulled the gas gun out of the jeep’s refueling hole . He put it back in place, sealed it, and hung it up .
Just as he backed into the car and was about to open the door to get in, there was a loud bang . The jeep in front of them jumped, and then the entire car tilted down .
One of the tires had been blown out .
The car with only three wheels left obviously couldn’t drive away .
Huo Shaoheng made a prompt decision . He took Gu Nianzhi’s luggage out of the car and stuffed both suitcases into Gu Nianzhi’s hands . He said calmly, “Drag them . Use them as shields if necessary . ”
With one suitcase in each hand, Gu Nianzhi nodded and stood behind Huo Shaoheng .
Huo Shaoheng said to Vladimir and the driver in Russian, “Let’s split up and meet up at the three o’clock direction of the Birch forest ahead . We’ll see who they’re going after . ”
If they were going after the KGB, then they wouldn’t follow Huo Shaoheng and the others .
If they were going after Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi, then Vladimir and the driver would be able to escape and find reinforcements .
