The Bourne Counterattack

Chapter 231 Arrest ()

Around eight fifty.

Arrive at Mega Park.

Xu Qinghe had already led people to ambush into the woods in the northwest corner.

Cheng Mo and Gu Xiaotian came in from the east gate. Of course, they did not walk side by side along the way, but one behind the other. He didn't know if the person who came to silence them would have arrived long ago.

If it is seen to be a trap, the other party will not step into the trap.

Therefore, we can't let the other party notice that something is wrong.

In the park, many people come here for morning exercises, and some come here with their dogs for a walk. In fact, it is not much different from that of later generations.

It's just that those who have this leisure time are people who have no worries about food and clothing, not ordinary people who don't even have enough to eat.

You will never see the overcrowded park in the morning like in later generations, but at a glance, you can at least see people in twos and threes, and the air at this time is the best. The autumn air is crisp, neither cold nor hot, and it is most suitable for going out for fun.

It has been more than a year since the war broke out. Many facilities here have not been maintained, some are beginning to be dilapidated, and many places are deserted.

As time passed by, Gu Xiaotian's inner nervousness reached a peak, until he heard footsteps coming from behind him.

Huang Xiaoling is a woman, which is why he did not refuse. What can a weak woman do to him like a grown man?

Follow a path across.

Staying at the edge, Gu Xiaotian felt a chill on his back and the hairs on his back stood on end. This place was so permeable that it felt like the temperature would drop by one degree every time he took a step forward.

For some special prisoners, the most you can do is stand with your back to the gunman.

The surroundings were extremely quiet, without a sound.

Although criminals were not executed every day, in a place with a high incidence of crime like the concession, there was never a shortage of vicious cases of murder and arson. There would be one or two cases almost every day, and sometimes more.

Therefore, the black irregular marks on the ground are all left by the blood of executed prisoners.

There are also depressions on the ground, which are the marks left by the condemned prisoners kneeling on the ground.

Those who were shot head-on were very few.

Generally, death row prisoners kneel directly on the ground, and the executioner's gunman shoots directly from behind, aiming at the back of the head. The death row prisoner cannot see the gunman's face.

This is the execution ground where death row prisoners are shot.

This was originally a private garden, but later became a public park open to the public. Before the war broke out, it was a good place for citizens to relax.

To be honest, Gu Xiaotian was not willing to come to a place like this, but for the sake of money, he still agreed to come. After all, no one here saw their transaction.

Ordinary people would not go there for no reason. The more dead people there are, the more yin will be. There are also some stray wild dogs, and some death row prisoners whose bodies have not been collected. After the execution, they will be wrapped in straw mats and left on the spot. They dug a hole and buried it, and these wild dogs were waiting for a feast on these corpses!

This is even more permeable.

After walking about a hundred meters, we came to a clearing in the forest. The ground was bare and not a single blade of grass grew.

A man he had never seen before walked over to him, wearing the uniform of a cleaning worker, holding a broom in his hand and a long-handled dustpan on his shoulder.

The grove in the northwest corner turned out to be the execution ground for criminals.

Therefore, every few days, prisoners on death row will be shot. Of course, this is not the only execution place...

It looked like a worker responsible for cleaning up garbage in the park.

However, why did a garbage cleaning worker come to this execution ground for murder? There should be no one here, and there is no need to clean it usually.

Gu Xiaotian's nerves suddenly became tense.

After all, robberies and injuries often happened here. Although he knew that people from the patrol room were nearby, if something really happened, he would at least survive the time it took for them to arrive. The man dressed as a cleaner quickly arrived in front of Gu Xiaotian, only seven or eight meters away from him.

"Gu Xiaotian?"

The visitor immediately called out Gu Xiaotian's real name, but his accent sounded a bit "Dun Dun" and did not sound like a Chinese.

"Who are you and how do you know my name?"

"Reiko asked me to come here."

"Why doesn't she come by herself? We made an appointment." Gu Xiaotian asked.

"She has to go to work and can't leave. Entrust me to deliver the money to you." The person took out an envelope from his arms and walked forward for about three or four meters. He was just a sprint away from Gu Xiaotian.

"Stop, throw the money to me." Gu Xiaotian ordered the other party.

"What, you don't believe me?"

"Of course, I have never met you, how do I know if you will be harmful to me?" Gu Xiaotian stared at the other party warily.

"Okay." The person did not come forward, but opened the envelope, took out part of the money inside, showed it to Gu Xiaotian, stuffed it back, then raised his hand and threw it away.

Just when Gu Xiaotian reached out to take it, the man suddenly pulled out a sharp dagger, sprinted, and stabbed Gu Xiaotian in the chest.

It's really as fast as lightning.

Bah!
Just as the guy started to take off, a gunshot rang out at the same time.

A bullet came at high speed and directly penetrated his right hand holding the dagger. A scream was heard, and from the woods on all sides, plainclothes patrolmen who had been lying in wait for a long time rushed out with guns.

Surround the two people.

"Gu Xiaotian, you..." The silenced killer covered his injured hand, like a wounded beast, looking at Gu Xiaotian angrily with red eyes.

"Sorry, I can't help it." Gu Xiaotian turned pale with fright. If it hadn't been for that shot, he would have been seriously injured if he had been stabbed today.

This shot was fired by Cheng Mo.

He came over, took the envelope from Gu Xiaotian's hand, reached out and took out the money inside. Only one piece of paper was genuine, and the rest were all white papers, which were simply lies.

Everyone could see clearly that this man was here to kill Gu Xiaotian and silence him, and he had no intention of giving him money.

The killer knew that his mission had failed. He smiled strangely, and black blood suddenly overflowed from his mouth. He obviously committed suicide by taking poison.

Cheng Mo frowned. He actually sent a dead soldier. He couldn't complete the task and committed suicide. The organization behind Huang Xiaoling is probably not simple...

Cheng Mo suddenly became as gloomy as water.

The gunshot just now probably shocked Huang Xiaoling who came over. He could have cared about Gu Xiaotian's life or death, but he still shot in the end.

"Boss..." At this time, Lu Le ran over all the way, panting and looking ugly.

"Lost?"

Cheng Mo knew something was wrong with him as soon as he saw Lu Le's expression.

Lu Le nodded ashamedly, a little downcast.

"Forget it, carry the killer's body back and close the team." Cheng Mo waved his hand helplessly and ordered.

The rest is up to Xu Baichuan.
