Chapter 32 Smoke and Tenderness

"Major!" The captain suddenly raised his hand and gave a standard military salute!

"Major...Major!?"

When Cai Wenyou and the director spoke at the same time, their hearts skipped a beat.

Her identity wasn't just that of a bodyguard; she was actually a senior officer in the military, with the title of major! A major at such a young age of twenty-one was simply unheard of!

Wen Ni put away her military officer's ID and asked calmly, "Have you contacted the Burmese outpost?"

"We've contacted them, but..." the captain hesitated, "they're playing games with us, their words and actions don't match."

“I already guessed it. The outposts are so close, how could the Burmese barbarians not have noticed at all?” Wen Ni had long anticipated the worst outcome, but she never expected it to actually involve the Burmese barbarians colluding with the Black Forces!

The situation in Myanmar is so complex that it has deteriorated to such an extent.

"If that's the case, then there's only one way left!"

Wen Ni's bright eyes were filled with determination. "Get me a sniper rifle right now."

"What!?"

The captain stared in astonishment. Her officer's ID number 76482 indicated that she was from the Logistics Support Unit. It was already legendary for someone in the Logistics Support Unit to reach the rank of Major, and she could even snipe?!

“I am a sniper,” Wen Ni said in a cool voice. “Right now, only I have the authority to fire at them without escalating the situation to an international level!”

"Understood, I'll have someone fetch it right away!"

Ten minutes later, the captain and his men brought the gun, but...

"The Type 85 sniper rifle? It's lightweight, but its firing range is only 800 meters." Wen Ni frowned. "Aren't there any others?"

"Major, this is the top-of-the-line equipment here..." The captain chuckled.

Fine, we'll have to make do. The conditions are tough; she can't exactly follow the rules she had in the special forces.

"What are they saying? This gun is no good?" Director Song, who was standing nearby, listened intently.

"Wen Ni said it's usable." Cai Wenyou was somewhat dazed. Looking at Wen Ni's figure, he was surprised to find that his palms were covered in sweat.

He had guessed that her identity was not simple, but he never expected it to be so...unexpected!

Major, on the payroll, superior officer, sniper.

Every word was out of his reach!

"The enemy sniper is more than 800 meters away from me, and the angle is not good enough to reach him."

Wen Ni held up one finger to measure it, then shook her head and looked at Lu Jinye, who was still calmly hiding in the trench on the screen.

He seems to be used to it; he's probably experienced situations like today countless times.

"Director Song!"

"Here I am, Miss Wen. How can I help you?" Director Song, who was always listening intently, quickly stepped forward, waiting for instructions.

"Three demolition points, cover me, I'm going to the earthen slope next to Lu Jinye." Wen Ni said, grabbing a black cloth bag, putting the sniper rifle inside, and holding it in her arms.

"This is too dangerous. What if the enemy sniper wounds you?" Cai Wenyou stepped in front of her, disagreeing with her decision!

Wen Ni turned her head to look at Cai Wenyou's worried face, a proud smile curving her lips. "No one understands sniper rifles better than me. Even if that rifle is in someone else's hands!"

"you……"

Cai Wenyou's words were swallowed up between breaths; the confidence and pride in her eyes made him feel that anything he said would be an insult to her...

"Prepare the demolition site!"

Director Song's forehead was covered in a fine sweat from nervousness; this was the first time in his life he had encountered such a situation!

Cai Wenyou and the staff beside her also clenched their hands in worry, one by one, they all stared intently at Wen Ni’s agile figure, moving with her through the bursts of fire caused by the explosions!

Lu Jinye, who was in the trench, was also watching her, watching the girl in black running towards him!

Behind her, fire and earth intertwined like dazzling fireworks blooming in the night sky...

She is decisive, brave, and far surpasses others!

On the other side

The sniper, located in Myanmar, followed her movements with his gaze, keeping a close eye on her eyes through the scope, trying to lock onto the target!

"Eighth Brother, the Master said that if this mission isn't completed, you don't need to come back." The ruthless words from his superior came through the wireless headset.

"Shit! Let me deal with this damn girl first!" Sniper Lao Ba cursed in the local dialect, a blade of grass between his teeth, then turned his gun around and followed Wen Ni's serpentine movements.

"Bang!"

Another bombshell exploded under Director Song's control, perfectly concealing Wen Ni's movements.

The black smoke and rising flames from the explosion further obstructed the enemy sniper's vision, causing his hard-won lock-on shot to miss completely!

The stray bullet landed on the mound in front of Wen Ni, blasting up a cloud of dirt.

step

Two steps!

As she approached the target, Wen Ni, holding the sniper rifle, jumped down from the trench without hesitation. Lu Jinye, who was hiding in the trench, spread his arms and caught her steadily!

All of this was done without words; a single glance was enough to achieve perfect harmony.

Her cheek lightly bumped against his chest, the smell of earth and gunpowder mingling with the scent that excited and heightened her senses!

"Are you out of your mind? You should know how dangerous this is!" Lu Jinye's voice was magnetic and husky, and his large, strong hand on the back of her head was warm and firm.

"He's the one who's reckless."

A wicked smile appeared on her delicate and pure face, her bright and clever eyes making him momentarily dazed.

In that one second that Lu Jinye was distracted, Wen Ni used one hand to push herself out of his embrace, nimbly rolled to the side, and hid herself behind a mound of earth.

She held the sniper rifle with one hand, and the instant her eyes locked onto the target through the scope, she decisively pulled the trigger!

The movement was so smooth and fluid that it took less than ten seconds from start to finish!

The sharp bullet shot out from the flash of fire, covering a distance of 100 meters, and flew straight towards the enemy sniper's head!

A second before the bullet arrived, sniper Lao Ba's pupils suddenly contracted, as if he could see the bullet slowing down and flying towards him.

"Damn it! She actually..."

The words he was about to say came to an abrupt halt.

His hand, which was on the trigger, clenched tightly with all his might at the moment death arrived!

"Bang!"

The moment the bullet leaves the barrel, it leaves behind a final, resounding echo.

At the same time as the sound, Lu Jinye moved in the trench.

As if sensing something, he suddenly looked up, rushed out of the trench in one stride, grabbed Wen Ni's waist with one hand, and tumbled together onto the other side of the mound!

The immense force startled Wen Ni.

Feeling the strong arms around her waist, she looked up and stared at the man's firm and well-defined jawline.

He actually wanted to shield her from the bullets?

Thinking of this

Wen Ni suddenly leaped forward and pulled, switching places with Lu Jinye!

The incoming bullet narrowly missed her arm and struck the cover behind her.

"Wen Ni? You?" Lu Jinye's expression changed, and he frowned slightly.
