<h4>Chapter 1131: Grim possibilities!</h4>
Afternoon.
Smoke and dust covered the front of the research center.
Thick ck smoke came from the burning armored vehicle and the two flipped military jeeps. Dozens of dead bodies were everywhere. It looked like hell, and no words could describe this scene.
“Urghh….” Zhong Lizhen vomited.
Dong Xuebing quickly put her down. “How are you?”
Zhong Lizhen squatted and started puking.
Dong Xuebing sighed. “I told you not to look, but you don’t….”
Zhong Lizhen looked around out of curiosity while puking and was shocked.
One person….
A few handguns….
This guy killed a few dozen soldiers himself, and even an armor vehicle could not stop him.
Who the hell is he?
Although Zhong Lizhen is an expert in various fields, she mainly did military research. She knew a lot about the military and had met many military soldiers. However, she had never met anyone with suchbat power. The young man in front of her had won against an army and was only armed with a few guns. How did he blow up that armored vehicle?!
Zhong Lizhen could not understand.
No wonder Xiao Dong was confident he could bring her out safely. Zhong Lizhen did not believe him initially, but it seemed he could do it.
Zhong Lizhen thought about this while puking.
Dong Xuebing was not in a rush. He patted her back to make her feel better.
Zhong Lizhen had removed her bra and kept it in her gown’s pocket. Her back felt smooth to the touch.
“Let’s go.” Zhong Lizhen stood up with difficulties.
Dong Xuebing replied. “It’s alright. You can continue to puke.”
Zhong Lizhen tried her best to tolerate the nauseous feeling. “Let’s go. More people will being after us.”
“Alright. Let’s get on a jeep. I will help you.” Dong Xuebing helped Zhong Lizhen over to a jeep.
This jeep was the only vehicle that was not damaged. Dong Xuebing had purposely avoided damaging it, and no one was inside. It was clean inside. They got into the jeep, and Dong Xuebing drove out of the research center.
Inside the vehicle.
Zhong Lizhen was pale after vomiting. She turned to Dong Xuebing. “We don’t have any backups. How are we going to leave the US?”
Dong Xuebing thought for a second. “Let’s go to the airport first.”
Zhong Lizhen retorted. “The airport is dangerous. We had killed so many soldiers, and they will not let us off. They know we will be trying to leave the country, and they will tighten the security there. Checkpoints might have been set up on the roads now.”
“I know. But we don’t have other choices.”
“Why can’t we go by sea? As long as we can get someone to help.”
“It’s the same for air and sea, and no one else is helping us.”
Dong Xuebing thought for a second and took out his phone. He wants to call Zhang Longjuan to tell her he is safe and ask about the situation. If State Security had prepared a way to bring Zhong Lizhen out safely, it would save him lots of trouble. Zhong Lizhen saw it and snatched the phone.
“What are you doing?” Zhong Lizhen asked.
“I am calling a friend.” Dong Xuebing looked at her.
“Is your phone safe?” Zhong Lizhen asked.
Dong Xuebing paused and said. “It’s just a normal phone. I don’t know.”
Zhong Lizhen switched off the phone. “We cannot make any calls unless you want to kill your friend.”
“Why?”
“If this is an unsecured phone, I can use at least three ways to track your signals and two ways to tap your phone. Our location will be exposed immediately. How are we going to escape?”
Dong Xuebing replied. “I did not know about this.”
Zhong Lizhen looked at Dong Xuebing. “I believe you are not from the military or State Security now. How can youe and save me without knowing about these?”
Dong Xuebing thought to himself. I had no choice.
Zhong Lizhen said nothing and quickly dismantled an LCD device in the vehicle.
Dong Xuebing was shocked. “What are you doing? I am driving.”
“Just drive. It will not affect you.”
Click… nk…. Click…. Zhong Lizhen pulled out an electricponent, and the LCD screen changed to another color.
“What are you doing?” Dong Xuebing asked.
Zhong Lizhen exined. “The vehicle will emit a signal, and they can track us. I had removed the signal emitting device from it.”
Dong Xuebing replied. “You know everything.”
Zhong Lizhen shook her head. “I had never dismantled military jeeps or studied them. But the structure and designs are about the same.”
“Then where are we….”
“I don’t know.”
“Let’s go to the airport. I have a way to get through the security checks.”
“Are you sure? The security will be tight.”
“It should not be a problem, but it might be tough for you.”
“No problem, as long as I can get home. I had been waiting for this day.”
“Ok. Don’t get mad with meter.”
They continued on their way, and they met a checkpoint soon. The soldiers were cautious. Maybe it was because Dong Xuebing had killed all the soldiers at the research center. They might not know what exactly happened. The soldiers saw it was a military jeep, and a few rxed. One of them even saluted the vehicle and signaled them to stop.
The security was indeed tight. They even want to stop a military vehicle.
Dong Xuebing will not stop. He turned to Zhong Lizhen. “Hold on.” He stepped on the elerator and sped towards the checkpoint.
The soldiers were shocked and quickly jumped out of the way.
A soldier reacted fast and fired a few shots from his handgun.
Ding… ding… ding…. The bullets hit the jeep and bounced off.
Dong Xuebing did not care. He saw the soldiers getting into their vehicles to chase, and he turned into a minor road. He needs to lose them.
The soldiers were chasing after them.
Dong Xuebing turned to Zhong Lizhen. “Professor Zhong, which direction is the airport?” He was lost.
Zhong Lizhen pointed to the north. “It’s that direction. We are about 15 kilometers away.”
“15 km? Dong Xuebing knew they were close, but their location was exposed. It will be challenging to reach the airport with this car.
“Professor Zhong….”
“Huh?”
“Sorry.”
“Ahhh….”
Dong Xuebing hit the back of Zhong Lizhen’s neck before she could react. She immediately fainted.
Dong Xuebing continued to drive and saw a ck car driving on the road nearby. He immediately mumbled STOP.
Time stopped.
Dong Xuebing carried Zhong Lizhen out of the jeep and walked to that car. He opened the door and pulled out the driver. He knocked the driver out and threw him by the side of the road before getting into the car with Zhong Lizhen.
STOP deactivated.
Time resumed.
That driver felt the impact and fainted.
Dong Xuebing stepped on the elerator and continued driving.
Although they will be discovered soon, Dong Xuebing can switch to another vehicle again. His target is to reach the airport as soon as possible.
The other side.
A secluded house on the outskirts.
Old Hong asked. “Have you found out about Xiao Dong’s identity?”
Yao Shun was looking terrible. “He was on the same flight with me and will leave some clues. But the higher-ups will need some time to identify him.”
“What should we do now?”
“Pack up and pull out.”
“Why are we pulling out?”
“I just received news about the research center. Something happened there.”
“What happened? Is it Xiao Dong?”
“I don’t know. Our people cannot infiltrate there, but they heard many gunshots and explosions.”
“What about Professor Zhong?”
“I don’t know if Zhong Lizhen and Xiao Dong are still alive. The chances of them surviving are slim from the gunshots.”
Old Hong kept quiet.
Yao Shun sighed. “The higher-ups came to this conclusion too. Although we don’t know who Xiao Dong is, this mission has failed. We cannot wait any longer. The higher-ups ordered us to retreat to a safe ce before the US military locked down this area.”
Ring… ring… ring….
Zhang Longjuan called.
“Do you have news about Xiao Dong?” Zhang Longjuan asked.
Yao Shun hesitated for a second. “Sorry, Ms. Zhang. I just received news something happened at the research center. Xiao Dong and Zhong Lizhen might be dead.”
“Is it confirmed?”
“Not yet. This is the higher-ups and my conclusion. No one can escape with so many soldiers guarding there.”
