Chapter Eighteen: Starting Work 3
"This man is not simple. Tsk tsk, he really goes all out."
Seeing the man with a cynical smile on his face, yet with a ruthless glint in his eyes, shooting one kid to death with a single shot, he was absolutely insane.
[Host, I have a feeling, but I'm not sure if I should say it.]
Gu Zuozuo blinked, drawing her attention away from what was below.
"If you don't know whether you should say it or not, then don't say it. Keep it to yourself."
Claes...!
[Host, I think for your own safety, I should tell you, you might have been discovered.]
Gu Zuozuo was shocked. How could this be? She had been hiding here quietly without making a sound. How could she have been discovered!
Thinking of this, Gu Zuozuo quietly parted the branches and leaves to look down.
The battlefield below had returned to silence, and the survivors were being tied up one by one by the young men in military uniforms.
Her gaze met a pair of deep, calm eyes.
OMG!
They've actually been discovered.
Li Zeyu walked slowly, his hands behind his back tightly gripping the loaded pistol, approaching the big tree step by step, his eyes fixed on the parts of the branches hidden by the leaves.
"Come out, stop hiding, I've seen you for a while now."
Although he still wore that roguish smile, his gaze toward the tree was so sharp it seemed capable of tearing someone to pieces.
Li Zeyu, who had been on high alert and whose muscles were tense, was surprised to find that shortly after he spoke, a fluffy head and a pair of crescent-shaped eyes that smiled before the words were spoken appeared from the leaves.
woman?
"I didn't hide here on purpose. I got here first, and you all came later!"
The subtext is: she didn't eavesdrop or peep on purpose, so don't try to convict her.
Her teammates watched in surprise as the girl nimbly jumped down from the tree, and instinctively pointed their guns at her.
"Don't move!"
Gu Zuozuo immediately stood still, her hands instinctively raised, almost crouching down with her head in her hands.
She gritted her teeth in frustration, cursing the awful man who had ruined her life a hundred times over in her heart.
It's all his fault. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have reacted so strongly to firearms.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Gu Zuozuo secretly rolled her eyes, knowing that being discovered would be troublesome.
"Gu Zuozuo, female, 17 years old, a sent-down youth, she came to the mountains to catch wild animals to eat, of course she came here to move nature, right?"
Li Zeyu scrutinized her from head to toe, his gaze filled with blatant suspicion.
With that frail little body that could be blown over by a gust of wind, are you sure you're not just delivering food to wild animals in the mountains?
Which village?
"What?"
"Which village were you sent to as an educated youth?"
Gu Zuozuo sighed, glancing sideways at the tall man without revealing her true feelings. Despite her inner turmoil and a hundred thousand complaints about him, she still answered his questions honestly.
"Red Star Brigade, Malutun".
Li Zeyu nodded. Although the woman in front of him looked harmless and weak, her sudden appearance here as a woman was still too suspicious.
Thinking to myself that I should go back and have someone investigate further, since he was the person in charge, I would never let go of the slightest suspicion once I had one.
"Captain, you can rejoin the team now!"
Li Zeyu nodded, then glanced at Gu Zuozuo one last time, scrutinizing her for a long time.
"Don't wander around during this period of time, just stay in the village."
