Hello, Mr. Major General - Chapter 1431
Chapter 1431: Take You Home
The military parade was over, and the footage of the drill was broadcasted.
Gu Nianzhi’s eyes widened. She wanted to see Huo Shaoheng on the stage, but no matter how hard she looked, she couldn’t see his imposing figure nor his handsome, masculine, calm face.
“Where did he hide?” Gu Nianzhi muttered and changed her position on the sofa.
Xiao Ye held a plate of raisins and ate them one by one. She smiled and said, “Don’t look for him. He’s definitely not on stage.”
Perhaps he was watching the grand military parade and exercise from a corner.
If the people from the special operations forces wanted to hide, no one would be able to find them.
On the television screen, smoke was billowing and the sound of gunfire was even louder.
This time, the drill was completely behind closed doors. Originally, it was supposed to be broadcasted live on the internet, but for some unknown reason, it was canceled. Only the imperial capital television station was able to obtain some footage of the drill and broadcast it on the television station.
Although they knew that it was a specially chosen angle so as to deter the foreign armed forces that were eyeing it covetously, the content was still very exciting to watch.
German Prime Minister Bismarck once said that the truth is only within the range of cannons.
Today, there are only three great truths in the world: Dongfeng, Baiyang, and the Militia, all of which are the names of the strategic nuclear missiles owned by the Huaxia Empire, Russia, and the United States.
Today, they were fortunate enough to witness the Huaxia Empire’s greatest truth, ‘Dongfeng-3131ag’!
During the exercise, the ‘biggest truth’ couldn’t be used, but it was enough to make people excited.
Everyone’s attention was on the military base in Rihe City. All the equipment and surveillance cameras were aimed at the military base in Rihe City.
Because of the dangerous situation they had uncovered, they doubled the surveillance cameras there.
The sound of the television was transmitted through the high-quality stereo system as it reverberated in the living room. It was as if a large bunch of fireworks had been placed at the door of their home, filling their ears.
They did not hear it, but the elevator outside their door which was only accessible to residents quietly stopped on their floor.
According to the direction of the elevator button, the elevator user had come from the upper floors.
Huo Shaoheng had chosen this apartment complex on Third Ring Road because it was high-end and had excellent privacy.
The elevator went directly into each apartment on the first floor. Other than the residents with key cards, no one could stop on their floor.
He did not expect this excellent privacy to become a double-edged sword.
…
The elevator doors parted, and four unattractive men in black came out.
The first thing the leader of the men did was raise his hand and fire a shot at a camera installed at Gu Nianzhi’s door.
The silent pistol made a dull thud, and the camera shattered into pieces.
Xiao Ye, who was in the room, keenly sensed that something was amiss. She tilted her head to listen, but it seemed that she could no longer hear anything.
She glanced at the monitor beside her. She could see the surroundings of the apartment from there.
The monitor was still showing the scene from five minutes ago.
She stared at the time displayed on the monitor for a while and felt that something was amiss. She was about to get up and go to the door when she heard the doorbell ring.
Gu Nianzhi also heard it. She turned her head and asked in puzzlement, “Why is someone ringing the doorbell at this time? Xiao Ye, is she your friend?”
Other than Huo Shaoheng and He Zhichu, only Xiao Ye and the people from the special operations forces, such as Yin Shixiong and Zhao Liangze, knew her address.
Xiao Ye shook her head and became even more vigilant.
She stood up and silently scurried to the door like a cat. She peeked through the peephole to take a look.
Xiao Ye was even more puzzled when she saw four men wearing sunglasses and black clothes standing at the door.
She was about to ask them a question when the person waiting at the door seemingly lost his patience. He took out a gun and fired a few shots at the door lock.
Xiao Ye sprinted back, grabbed Gu Nianzhi from the sofa, and pushed her into the bedroom.
“Take the gun and find a place to hide! Call the police! No matter what you hear, don’t make a sound!” Xiao Ye pulled out a gun from her thigh and stuffed it into Gu Nianzhi’s hand. Then, she closed the door tightly.
She rushed to the living room and found a place to hide. As she loaded the gun, she also started to contact the special operations forces with her phone.
She knew that apart from herself, Huo Shaoheng had also arranged for other people to ensure that Gu Nianzhi was secretly protected.
Although there was a large military parade being held that day, there should be other people on duty.
However, although her phone had been dialing for a long time, and she couldn’t get any signal at all!
Xiao Ye’s heart was pounding.
Electromagnetic shielding!
These people had actually used electromagnetic shielding!
Then the surveillance cameras must have been destroyed by them as well..
If the news from their place did not spread, Huo Shaoheng’s arrangements would be useless!
What should she do?!
Xiao Ye made a decision in an instant.
She closed her eyes. Her 29-year-old life had flashed before her eyes. She had risked her life for so many years, but nothing was as dangerous as this situation.
She had never imagined that the most dangerous situation she would face would actually be at Gu Nianzhi’s home, in a high-end apartment along Third Ring Road of the Imperial City!
Xiao Ye turned around and kicked open the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room. She fired at the same time.
If the electromagnetic signal could not be sent out, she wanted to announce a commotion!
However, after firing a few shots, she realized that the balcony was actually fully enclosed with bullet-proof glass!
Her bullets only left a few cracks on the balcony’s glass.
From the moment Xiao Ye made her decision to the moment the other party finally broke into the room, it seemed like only a split second had passed. It also seemed like a long time had passed.
When Xiao Ye turned around, a man had already pounced on her. He grabbed her hand that was shooting and pulled her down. He pushed his knee up and forcefully broke her wrist. Then, he kicked her horizontally. There was a cracking sound and Xiao Ye’s calf was broken by his kick.
Xiao Ye’s bones were quite hard. She was in so much pain that cold sweat was breaking out on her forehead. Yet, she actually did not even make a sound.
The other party seemed to be surprised by her toughness and let go of her hand slightly.
Xiao Ye fell to the ground with a plop, lying at a strange angle.
One of her hands was limp and collapsed, almost touching her wrist at a 180 degree angle.
Needless to say, the broken leg couldn’t support her body at all.
The man walked around the room and glanced at the closed door of the bedroom. He turned around to look at Xiao Ye who was lying on the ground and said indifferently, “Miss Gu, I know you’re here. Come out and I’ll let her go.”
He held a gun in his hand and pointed it at Xiao Ye, who was lying on the floor. He raised his hand to look at his watch.
They had been preparing for this plan for almost half a year, but when the opportunity arrived, they only had less than 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, the other party would realize that the security cameras here were not working and they would immediately send someone over.
When that time came, it would be a question of whether they could escape or not.
Gu Nianzhi was trembling in fear in her bedroom.
This was not the first time she had faced such a situation.
The first time, she had seen two special operations forces field agents get killed in that small forest in Germany…
This time, was she going to watch Xiao Ye die right in front of her again?!
“Miss Gu, we don’t mean to hurt you. You should know, if we wanted you dead, we could have used our own methods to blow up the Senate Building or the apartment building.”
The man spoke as if he were strolling in a leisurely manner. His hands were not idle either. With a bang, he shot Xiao Ye’s other wrist, which was still intact, and broke that wrist as well.
Xiao Ye let out a low growl, and her lower lip was bleeding from her teeth.
Gu Nianzhi lay in the crack of the bedroom door and watched the scene with wide eyes. She saw the blood on Xiao Ye’s wrist meander out, dyeing the milky white carpet red.
She had made a few phone calls, but not only was she unable to send a text message, she was also unable to make a phone call.
Electromagnetic shielding.
These people had used electromagnetic shielding to deal with her!
Gu Nianzhi really did not know why they wanted her so much, to the point that these people would use everything they had.
“Why aren’t you coming out? Okay, I’ll count to ten and every time I count, I’ll fire a shot until she dies.”
As the man spoke, the gun in his hand was aimed at Xiao Ye, and he fired a cold shot.
First, it was her left arm, then her right arm, then her left thigh, left calf, right thigh, and right calf.
The sound of gunshots rang out one after another, and Xiao Ye let out a scream that caught her off guard.
She was being shot in the bone. She was not able to endure it even if she wanted to.
A scream was a person’s instinct when fighting against pain.
“One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine…”
There was only one shot left, and the gun in the man’s hand was aimed at Xiao Ye’s head.
Xiao Ye was covered in blood. She lay on the snow-white carpet that had been dyed red with blood. It was bright red, like she was wearing a red evening gown.
She had been shot more than once in all four of her limbs, and her injuries looked very serious.
Even if she did not die, she might be crippled for life.
Her face was facing Gu Nianzhi’s direction. Her eyes were closed, and her beautiful face was deathly pale, like a porcelain sculpture. There was not a trace of life on her face.
Her long legs, which used to be able to jump and kill, might never be able to stand up again…
Gu Nianzhi covered her mouth with her hand, and her tears fell like rain in the bedroom. She could not stand it anymore.
Xiao Ye had used her own life to save her, and she could use her own life to save her!
She pointed a loaded gun at her head with one hand and pushed open the bedroom door. Gu Nianzhi said coldly, “Stop! If you shoot her again, I’ll shoot too.”
She knew that the other party really wanted to capture her alive, so her threat of suicide was the most effective.
Just like what the other party had said, if they wanted her dead, there was no need to torture and kill Xiao Ye. If they directly threw a bomb into the house, she and Xiao Ye would definitely die.
Since the other party was afraid of harming her, she could only use her own life to threaten the other party.
She had no other way.
Besides, even if the other party lied, what chance did she have to win?
Xiao Ye had told her to hide in her bedroom, probably thinking that they would call the police immediately and that the special operations forces would arrive immediately. The most they could do was to sacrifice Xiao Ye’s life to buy her time.
However, Xiao Ye had underestimated the other party’s methods and misjudged Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi had never been someone who could watch others die for her.
The deaths of the two special operations forces personnel in Germany had been a nightmare for her, and how could those two compare to Xiao Ye’s close relationship with her?
The four men looked relieved when they saw Gu Nianzhi walk out of the bedroom.
The man with the gun even threw his gun on the ground, spread his hands, and smiled at her. “See, I’m a man of my word. Miss Gu, don’t be afraid.”
“We’re not bad people. We’re here to take you home.”
