C11 (1/2)
After we got in the car, You Meng looked through the window at Secretary Zhang who was sweating cold sweat, he shook his head and sighed: ”I never thought that Secretary Zhang would actually be such a flashy character. Normally, the guard's theory was very deep, and when it came to critical moments, he would be stupefied. I might as well be you, a first lieutenant who just got assigned to the Sectary office! ”In my opinion, you are like a general who can command thousands of men and horses. You are calm in the face of trouble, but your mind is clear...”
I ignored You Meng and looked at my watch. Then, I immediately took out my car fleet's walkie-talkie and ordered, ”Let's go!”
The white poplars on both sides of the road extended in an orderly fashion. Occasionally, a few leaves would fall onto the windows, passing by in a flash. I could guess that everyone in the convoy was nervous, including You Meng who was beside me. She was chewing on a piece of Green Arrow Gum, and although she was staring forward calmly, I think her heart was definitely not calm at all.
You Meng said: ”Could it be, that my superior's intelligence report was wrong?”
I said, ”Impossible.”
I didn't give the order to slow down the carriage, instead, I drove on at a steady pace. I turned on the walkie-talkie and asked about the opening of the police car. I peeped out the window, apart from the chaotic autumn wind, there wasn't anything special about it. You Meng, who was by my side, played with her gun in her hand, staring at the outside of the window with her bright eyes, not daring to slack off at all. To us from the Special Guard, the word 'vigilance' is the most important word. No matter how calm and peaceful an environment we live in, we must always remain vigilant, or else the consequences would be unimaginable.
The additional guards on both sides of the road saluted and watched as the convoy approached. I was a little confused, why would there be a Terrorism lurking at this place, where there was a sentry every ten meters? Is the news reliable?
The convoy reached Mu He Street. On both sides of the road, there were broken houses and endless white poplar forests. There was still some distance between here and Beijing. The semi-suburbs of Beijing had big loopholes, and many places had the same level of development as rural towns. The sharpness of the profession reminds me that this place can easily be called a 'place of filth'.
Once again, I used the intercom to alert the team while I looked at the houses on both sides and the White Poplar Forest. The moment there was any movement, the Emergency Response Unit hiding in the car would come out in full force to subdue the other party.
However, the surroundings were still calm and peaceful.
I simply lit up a cigarette, but after smoking it for two breaths, You Meng suddenly waved her hand towards the corner of my mouth, snatched the cigarette away, and threw it into the car's ashtray. ”What time is it, you're still in the mood to smoke?” As You Meng observed the situation in front of him, he complained to me. I chuckled but didn't refute him.
Suddenly, I saw the door of a house on the right side of the road move slightly, and then the door was pushed open and a group of men in black hoods rushed out with iron rods in their hands.
My head exploded. I immediately used the intercom to give a command, ”Emergency Response Unit, let's begin!” Then, I held onto my handgun and looked at You Meng for a while. Then, I quickly stopped the car, opened the door and rushed out.
Could it be that this group of black masked men was the Terrorism that was informed by the Bureau Chief to stop their leader?
Sure enough, this group of men directly blocked the front of the convoy and quickly lined up in a row. The sentries who were working overtime on the roadside were instantly thrown into a panic as they rushed up one after another in an attempt to protect their leader's car. Just at that moment, the hidden emergency troops in the convoy quickly took the form of a, standing in a confrontation with the black-masked men.
There were a dozen of them, and based on their speed, I could tell they were a well-trained group of habitual offenders. Now that the situation was extremely dangerous, I pointed my pistol at them with one hand and pressed the alarm at my waist with the other, asking for reinforcements. You Meng and I, who were beside him, had their backs to each other. She whispered to me, ”Zhao Long, what should we do?
I softly replied, ”Let's keep watching.”
