Battlefield Contractor

Lin Rui and others evacuated through the underground passage, and the secret society has become a mess. Losing the Red Baron was like a snake without a head to them. But despite this, they quickly sealed off the basement, cleared the collapsed passage, and launched a pursuit. It's just that they don't know that this passage leads to the Federal Office District.

After Lin Rui and others withdrew from the tunnel, the federal soldiers already knew what had happened at the secret agency headquarters, and no one dared to stop these internal guards wearing black uniforms and let them drive all the way. The several checkpoints along the way could not stop them, because they had the credentials of the internal guards, and no one from the Olumi Federation dared to stop them.

They rushed all the way to the northwest desert. When the secret society and the people of the Olumi Federation reacted, where the underground passage leads to, they have also fled.

Lin Rui went into a coma halfway through due to fatigue and blood loss. When I woke up, I found that the convoy of myself and others had stopped in the desert.

The sky was full of stars in the distance, and the bonfire had risen, roasting lamb, Lin Rui leaned on the hot stone, turned to look at the scar face beside him, "Where are we?"

"Desert. As long as you cross this desert, you can reach the western border. Then we succeeded in getting out." Scarface patted Lin Rui and handed him a cup of hot coffee.

Lin Rui took it, took a sip, turned around and asked, "Has the task been completed?"

"I don't know, but it seems that the Red Baron is dead. After all, he was affected by the explosion. And they did not launch a timely pursuit. This is also related to the lack of effective command. If the Red Baron is still alive, We should not be able to escape Diligal." Scarface whispered to Lin Rui, "How do you feel?"

"It hurts." Lin Rui touched his shoulder.

"I'm not talking about your injury. I'm talking about watching the Red Baron die, is there a pleasure of finally getting revenge?" Scarface whispered. "Too many of us died in his hands."

Lin Rui smiled bitterly, "I wish I could have this kind of pleasure. But to be honest, everything happened too fast, and the life and death of myself and the other party were decided in a few seconds. I didn't even have time to feel my mood. To be able to see you alive is already the best thing."

Zhao Jianfei walked over and sat down beside them. "Is it better?"

"Much better." Lin Rui nodded and replied.

"The news just came. The person who was undercover in the secret agency and helped us get the documents has been shot, just two hours after we left Dirigal. They found out your few through data comparisons. Abnormal ID number. Without any suspense, he was immediately arrested and executed in an hour." Zhao Jianfei whispered.

"It means that their command system is not messy." Lin Rui whispered, "The Red Baron is not dead?"

"If the Red Baron does not die, the Olumi Federation will be held accountable immediately. One or two federal officials will even be shot, but not this time. Either the Red Baron is dead, or he is seriously injured. One person is directing." Zhao Jianfei whispered.

"Maklovsky." Lin Rui nodded, "it should be him, he is a figure who is more skilled in strategy. If it were him, he might already have an accurate judgment on our whereabouts. This desert will not be good. Rush."

"We have arranged the reception team, and we can join them tomorrow." Zhao Jianfei nodded and said, "We will be safe after passing this level."

Yelena walked over, turned the roasted lamb on the fire, cut off a piece with a knife and handed it to Lin Rui. Lin Rui nodded, "Thank you."

"I want to ask you something." Yelena whispered.

"What do you want to say?" Lin Rui nodded.

"Do you really believe in Aladdin? The mission has been completed, maybe he doesn't care that we can evacuate safely." Yelena whispered.

"I don't believe him, but I believe Zhao Jianfei. And the crystal is here, even if Aladdin is in danger, he won't let his daughter do anything." Lin Rui whispered.

Yelena whispered, "What if the so-called response force does not arrive tomorrow? Will we be stuck here and cannot leave?"

"What's wrong?" Lin Rui whispered, "Did you hear something."

"When you were asleep just now, I heard their whispered discussion, it seems that the response unit can't be contacted." Yelena whispered, "and Zhao Jianfei was still telling you just now that he can join the response unit tomorrow. Obviously he Did not tell the truth."

Lin Rui nodded, "Then what should he say? Tell us that the response unit he had arranged before suddenly lost contact, causing panic? Or try to control the situation and tell us that the response unit is normal?"

Yelena was silent for a while and nodded, "You make sense. I just don't think he should deceive us."

"Sometimes, in the leader's position, in order to control the situation, it is necessary to tell a lie." Lin Rui said slowly, "Have you heard of the story of Wangmei quenching thirst?"

"No?" Yelena shook her head, "What is that?"

"In ancient China, there was a military strategist named Cao Cao. He led his troops to fight and encountered great difficulties on the march. That is, the wasteland is a hundred miles away, and there is no water source. The soldiers are all thirsty and unbearable, and some are weak soldiers. , Was fainted with thirst, Cao Cao felt very difficult to handle this situation.

So Cao Cao hurriedly climbed the mountain in front of him to check the situation ahead. When he climbed the mountain, Cao Cao was disappointed. Looking around, there was still no humans, no source of water. However, with an inspiration, Cao Cao thought After finding a way, he turned his head and said to the soldiers who were in thirst: Soldiers, over the mountain in front, there is a plum forest where there are endless plums.

When the soldiers heard the plums, they couldn't help but salivate when they thought of the sweet and sour taste of plums, so the soldiers suddenly gained strength and moved forward. Later, they finally reached a place with water, but found that there was no plum forest at all. Lin Rui whispered.

Yelena thoughtfully.

"So sometimes, lies can also produce positive power. It is better to give people hope than to give people despair." Lin Rui whispered.

"You really are facing him in everything." Yelena chuckled lightly.

"Because I know him, Lao Zhao is not a bad person. He may be a bit cynical, but in many cases he is even too straightforward." Lin Rui whispered, "Tell the brothers, whether we have reinforcements tomorrow or not, we must maintain sufficient morals. Be vigilant. Maklovsky, it's not surprising that we will break through this border."
