Chapter 296 Team
A hint of hesitation flashed in Lin Xiao's eyes.
She turned to look at Gu Ming beside her and couldn't help but ask him a question.
"What do you think?"
Gu Ming lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment before explaining, "I think it's worth pursuing."
"After all, judging from the commotion just now, Brother Lu's side should be the enemy's main force, while we should only have some scattered stragglers left on our side."
"There are four of us here too. As long as we're careful, there shouldn't be any problems."
Lin Xiao's face still showed visible hesitation.
After thinking about it for a long time, he finally nodded.
"Let's go check the situation first. Everyone, please be careful and take good care of yourselves."
They were originally there to pave the way for the police officers, but now they can only act as scouts to see if they can find out any specific information.
Gu Ming sent a message directly to the police team following behind before taking the lead and walking forward with everyone.
They walked a short distance forward, when Gu Ming, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped with a wary expression.
His face was gloomy. He made a gesture to the people behind him, who then silently hid in the waist-high bushes.
Only then did they hear the sounds coming from ahead very clearly.
Lin Xiao and Gu Ming exchanged a glance, then quietly moved closer to Gu Ming and peered through the gaps in the grass.
There were only three people sitting together in front.
They were wearing military green uniforms, which appeared to be formal military attire.
Several people sat cross-legged, opening their backpacks and eating in a serious manner.
And next to it, a huge elephant lay, not yet to be cut up.
The people sitting nearby were completely unaffected by the bloodshed around them.
Do you think these police officers can find it?
"Don't you know your own limitations, Chinese police?"
"Sigh, I have to say, so many of us died in China. Their control here is just too strict."
"But why did the boss insist on this place this time? We used to work on the African plains, which was so comfortable and no one bothered us. Why did he specifically choose such a troublesome place?"
"And as far as I know, once the Chinese police get involved, you won't be able to get away for a while."
Listening to his companions' conversation, the man who had been sitting there silently finally couldn't hold back any longer.
Finally, she only raised her eyes and gave him a cold glare.
"Are you ever going to shut up? You just need to follow the boss's instructions and do what he says. Why are you asking so many questions?"
This person appears to be their leader.
As soon as this person spoke, the two people next to him immediately stopped complaining.
Some even smiled obsequiously, "Yes, yes, the boss is right, but I wonder... if we can successfully escape from China this time?"
"Hey, by the way, boss, I heard the boss seems to have taken a liking to someone from China, which is why he had us do this exhibition match. Is that true?"
The man called the boss looked up at them, then slapped each of them down.
"Eat your food properly, and then get back to work!"
"The police are right behind us, and you still have time to talk nonsense? Hurry up!"
The two exchanged a glance, curled their lips in obvious disgust, but said nothing more.
Just then, Gu Ming circled around and carefully returned to his original spot.
He lowered his voice and took the initiative to explain, "I just checked the surroundings, and there are only three of them here. We'll try to lure them away and take them out one by one; that should be easier."
Draw them away?
Lin Xiao nodded knowingly, then quietly retreated to a position a little further away.
Feng Cheng looked at the two people who had followed her with a worried expression, her pale face still showing lingering fear.
She nervously grabbed Lin Xiao's arm, her eyes filled with unease.
"Sister Xiao, we..."
"It's alright!" Lin Xiao smiled faintly, patted the other person's shoulder reassuringly, and then turned to leave with Gu Ming.
Despite her extremely unpleasant expression, Feng Cheng could only shake her head silently and sigh quietly.
I hope everything goes well for them...
The other group, having eaten and drunk their fill, returned to the elephant carcass and prepared to continue their work.
However, at that moment, a sparse rustling sound suddenly came from the bushes nearby.
Looking up into the distance, they could only see what appeared to be a small animal darting across the dense, lush bushes, causing them to sway gently.
They glanced at it briefly, then quickly looked away, not taking it to heart at all.
Unexpectedly, despite their complete disregard for the grass, the creature in the bushes seemed determined to provoke them, and soon made a commotion again.
"Stay, stay, stay..."
Upon hearing this sound, the crowd, who had been focused solely on the ivory, immediately raised their heads.
That sound... like a pangolin?
Thinking about how popular pangolins are in the Chinese medicine market, they suddenly had an idea. Only the person they called "boss" was still busy with his own work.
It seemed as if they were completely unaffected by these things.
The underling, who had already drawn his knife, grinned and sidled up to their boss.
"Boss, look, the money's practically right in front of us. It wouldn't be right for us not to take it, would it?"
The person in charge stopped tidying up the knives, glanced at him with his eyelids, and finally turned to look at another subordinate who was staring intently at him, speaking in a calm and unhurried tone.
"You think so too?"
The other person chuckled, their expression much more sincere than when they had been fawning.
"Boss, all these years we've been through thick and thin, just for this little bit of money."
"Now that this thing is practically being handed to us, how can we refuse it?"
Seeing their excited expressions, the man surrounded in the middle only let out a faint chuckle.
His face still showed that he didn't care much, but the tone of his words changed.
"If you want to go, then go ahead. I won't stop you..."
The two underlings exchanged an excited glance and were about to leave when they heard their boss speak again from behind.
"and many more!"
"Do you really need both of you to go together to catch a pangolin? One of you can do it."
Upon hearing this, the younger brother who had first noticed the commotion patted his colleague on the shoulder with a smug look on his face.
"Then... I'll take advantage of you this time!"
After saying that, he excitedly chased after them.
No one noticed that behind them, the man who had been intently tidying up the props had a slight, almost imperceptible smirk playing on his lips.
