Chapter 1308: The Story of Ling and Heng (571)
Ji Nuan stayed in the ICU for three days without waking up. It was said that Mr. Mo sat outside for three days without sleeping.
Although Mr. Mo had a strong heart, Ji Nuan once said that Mo Jingshen was very calm.
But right now, Mr. Mo had completely lost his composure. He was in a sorry state. His body was covered in Ji Nuan’s blood, but he did not wash it. His stubble covered his chin. He did not speak much, nor did he eat much. He just sat there and waited.
Everyone was worried that if Ji Nuan really did not wake up, Mr. Mo would collapse. Everyone was trying to persuade him, but Mo Jingshen, who had always been calm and composed and could easily control everything in his hands, seemed to have lost all of his divinity in the past three days after Ji Nuan took the bullet for him. All that was left was a sh.e.l.l that could not resist life and fate.
Finally, Qin Siting thought of a way to forcefully bring Mr. Mo to an empty ward for him to rest. It wasn’t easy for him to let Mr. Mo sleep.
That night, Atuta’s men sneaked into the hospital and held medical staff hostage on another floor. They disguised themselves as medical staff and brought Ji Nuan out of the ward. The quarantine area was too far away and the members of XI Base could not approach. When they found her, she was already gone.
When Feng Ling learned of this news, Qin Siting had already led his men to chase after her, but there was still no news.
Feng Ling was originally in a hotel near the hospital. She was still negotiating with the senior management of New York when she suddenly heard this news. She immediately turned on her computer and quickly contacted Doctor Qin.
Qin Siting was still driving outside. From the sound of his movements, it seemed like he was chasing after her. In order not to affect their pursuit, Feng Ling asked about the situation and asked if there was anything she could help with.
Qin Siting told her to wait for news at any time.
Afterward, Feng Ling kept waiting in the hotel. In the end, she could not wait any longer and went to the hospital. She took a look around the hospital ward and met several old friends from the base. The people she knew recently were K, Han Jin, and Xiao Xu. As for the other three snipers in Tamlin City, they had just been sent out for a mission last month and had yet to return.
When K came back to the hospital to arrange for a pincer attack, he saw Feng Ling and quickly pulled her over. “It’s great that you’re here!”
Without another word, he abruptly handed a sniper rifle to Feng Ling. “Come, come, come, hurry, I’ll give it to you first!”
“What are you doing?” It had been a long time since Feng Ling touched a gun. All of a sudden, a long and heavy sniper rifle was thrown into her arms. Her expression immediately faltered.
“Take it first. I think you’ll have to snipe it today.”
“Me?”
Feng Ling had no idea what they were planning to do. K was too busy to explain himself. He only asked her to keep the gun by her side and then went to arrange other brothers.
After K left with a group of people, Feng Ling looked at the sniper rifle in her arms. It had been so long, but she didn’t feel strange at all. She slowly clenched the handle of the rifle and then turned to look at the empty hospital corridor.
…
When Qin Siting came to look for Feng Ling, Feng Ling had yet to return to the hotel. She had been waiting in the hospital.
Seeing the sniper rifle in her hand, Qin Siting did not say much and let her get into the car.
Then he drove her to the highest floor hotel in downtown Los Angeles, chose a room on the top floor, and took her along.
In the elevator, Qin Siting briefly summarized today’s plan.
K followed Mr. Mo and the others in to encircle them, but there were too many of them, and Ji Nuan couldn’t take any more trouble. They had to finish this quickly. It wasn’t impossible to face them head-on, but it would definitely hurt Ji Nuan, so they needed someone with excellent sniping skills to shoot them from behind. Right now, only K knew about XI Base’s snipers. They didn’t know that Feng Ling was here, nor did they know the relations.h.i.+p between Feng Ling and XI Base. Based on the current situation, Feng Ling was the most suitable person to snipe from the back.
Feng Ling was silent for a moment before saying, “I haven’t taken a gun in a long time. Maybe I can’t hold it properly. If I accidentally injure…”
“At this time, I’m afraid you won’t be able to refuse. Mr. Mo’s future and Ji Nuan’s life are both in your hands.” Qin Siting looked at her. “In Ji Nuan’s current situation, if you delay even a second longer, she can go to h.e.l.l at any time.”
Feng Ling looked up at the slowly rising number and said calmly, “All right, I understand.”
When she reached the top floor, she entered the room that Qin Siting had arranged. When she checked the distance between the window and the building opposite, Feng Ling had already seen the situation on the opposite side. The group of people had kept Ji Nuan at bay all the way to the balcony.
Looking at the scene of those men being surrounded by XI Base’s brothers, Feng Ling did not say more. She decisively set up her sniper rifle in front of the window. Although she was no longer dressed in XI Base’s uniform, and although she was no longer the short-haired and capable sniper Feng Ling, at this moment, her movements were as proficient as they were many years ago. She did not waste a single second. After making all the necessary preparations, she aimed the gun at the back of the head of the man holding Ji Nuan back.
Bang!
A clean shot.
Five hundred meters away from the opposite building, the bullet hit the enemy’s head. The enemy was already covered in blood.
Seeing that Mo Jingshen had brought Ji Nuan into his arms in an instant, Feng Ling withdrew the sniper rifle from the window. She was about to carry the rifle on her back out of habit, but then she realized that she was no longer a member of XI Base. It was not convenient for her to bring this with her, so she put the rifle aside. The moment she looked back expressionlessly, she saw Qin Siting, who was calmly watching her movements.
“You haven’t touched a gun in a long time, have you?” Qin Siting asked.
“I haven’t touched it since I left the base. My hands are indeed much weaker. If it weren’t for Ji Nuan, I wouldn’t have taken such a risk. If I didn’t aim properly, she wouldn’t be the only one who died.”
“Since Nanheng called you here, of course, he trusts your marksmans.h.i.+p.”
Feng Ling paused and looked at him coldly. “Li Nanheng asked you to look for me?”
“Otherwise, why do you think I dared to invite you?”
“Since he’s not too busy and he’s still in Los Angeles, why didn’t he come here personally? Speaking of these marksmans.h.i.+p skills, K and I were taught by him. Isn’t he the safest sniper?” After guessing that she had fallen into Li Nanheng’s trap, Feng Ling’s expression was somewhat unkind.
“What do you think?” Qin Siting smiled lightly.
There was nothing to say. If she didn’t leave now, Li Nanheng would probably come up. She quickly put the gun away and walked out expressionlessly.
