Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories - Chapter 1074
Chapter 1074: The Drama Duo
Shen Qianshu asked, “How did she die?”
Maxi said, “She was seriously injured. I reckon that she died from an infection. The weather is warm, and we are in the jungle. We only have basic medicine, so she could not get the proper treatment.”
Her death was expected.
Monica said, “One less person again.”
Suddenly, a bullet hit on the cave wall not far away. It caused countless broken stones to splatter. Shen Qianshu got up horizontally and swept up her own M4. She, Monica, and Maxi had their backs against one another. They had planned to fight.
Minutes went by.
Everything went back to being peaceful.
After one bullet, it was endless peace. Nobody shot again, and nobody came up to check.
Xue Er said, “Did you see them?”
“No!” The girl said. “No one appeared.”
Monica suddenly crouched onto the ground and used her ear to listen to something. Shen Qianshu looked at her, not understanding what she was doing. Maxi and Monica exchanged glances. “Very big movement.”
“What the heck?”
“Someone is digging a tunnel.”
“What?”
Monica and Maxi got up. It was very far from them; hence, the sound was fainter when it was heard. However, it could be determined that there seemed to be people outside this selection ground.
“What is Xue Er doing?” Shen Qianshu could not understand at all. She was simply wasting ammunition. One shot here and one shot there. There was not a single shot that was accurate. Nobody knew their location.
“Their ammunition is adequate. What’s there to be afraid of?”
Suddenly, the sound of a helicopter hovering was heard.
A helicopter flew over the top of the forest. Shen Qianshu, Monica, and Maxi looked halfway up at the sky. The helicopter was not considered to be flying high. There were a few armed personnel sitting at the cabin door area.
Shen Qianshu had originally thought that the helicopter would send some supplies down or send people out, but the helicopter flew away just like this.
“I saw Black Rose,” Shen Qianshu said in a low voice. She had used the binoculars to look at the helicopter just now and saw Black Rose. She was on the helicopter. Shen Qianshu wished so much that she had a stinger missile to shoot her down.
“Why did she come?” Maxi frowned.
Monica said, “Increase the difficulty. After all, it won’t be anything good.”
How could this be something good?
Shen Qianshu said, “Hasn’t she been watching us compete all along?”
The night had arrived.
Suddenly, a bright light rose from a very faraway place. It looked like fireworks and also looked like something else. It was very orderly and rose to the sky three times. The field of vision was better here as there was a vast expanse of flat land.
Major was nearby.
Monica and Maxi exchanged glances. They suddenly felt much calmer in their hearts. This was their private way of contact through signaling. Although it was weak, they understood when they saw it. What was most important now was how to find their way over there.
They were afraid that there was someone monitoring them, and they could not say anything.
In the small town.
The youth held the fireworks and played with a few children together. The fireworks which the children played with did not fly high into the sky. The fireworks were very pretty and were very unique in the night light. Suddenly, a jeep barged over and nearly knocked down the children. Two people who were fully armed came down.
“Who allowed you all to light fireworks? Who allowed you all to light fireworks!” That person growled.
The children were badly frightened, and they nearly cried. It was a mess. The youth was being pointed at with a gun. He was so frightened that his legs turned soft, and he hurriedly said, “It is our holiday today. A holiday. We were lighting fireworks to play.”
In the small town, a group of women and children also gathered over. Although they were frightened, they were explaining continuously.
That fully armed personnel confiscated all their fireworks and said threateningly, “You are not allowed to light fireworks. Otherwise, you all will be killed.”
