  Compared with broken that high strength plastic rope, the coma of that special soldier didn’t let colonel Lake surprised on the contrary. The having such strong explosive force youngster, it’s impossible that a special soldier could resist. In colonel Lake this lifetime, he had just also met only a few times.

  Once he thought of this, colonel Lake had the strong curiosity and homicidal intent to mechanic Yufeng— The shame of the army, the youngster was already so strong like this, what kind of condition that mechanic would be strong to? But he didn’t have a slightest waver, just like the concept which Sheilor had been insisting on, colonel Lake didn’t care about how strong the personal force of the target at all, he thought that no matter how strong the target was, he still could not withstand a single blow when he was facing the powerful weaponry of the federal military.

  He threw the sunglasses on the ground by his feet, the colonel walked to in front of the command light screen in the temporary camp, gazed on the flashing green spots and two very different color zones on the light screen, the red and blue two color zones represent the places where target 1 and target 2 could be hiding in, just due to the time delay of the positioning, therefore, it just could only be spread out gradually.

  As the command signal returned back from the Capital Planet Circle constantly, the red and blue two color zones were also shrinking gradually. Colonel Lake kept watching this silent but soul-stirring process coldly, waiting for the moment these two zones gathered to a set point on the light screen.

  Four minutes and twelve seconds? Colonel Lake suddenly had his eye pupils shrunk, he knew himself had made an extremely stupid mistake, the information identifying positioning between the East Forest Region and the Capital Planet Circle was a process of back and forth, if they wanted to position the target 1 or target 2… Actually it would take more than eight minutes!

  His face was getting very gloomy, but he didn’t say anything to the subordinates by his side, he just felt that it’s extremely embarrassed. Thought of many years ago, that firework mistake made by the Fourth Military Region when they came to the East Forest Region, the mistake of that time, it made the Fourth Military Region to be transferred out of the East Forest Region directly, went to the West Forest that primitive and laggard place, he made a mistake himself again today, surely it didn’t mean that this represented some kind of ominous omen?

  If there were military staff officers or intelligence personnel by his side, of course he wouldn’t make this kind of stupid mistake, but the problem was that colonel Lake was just a front fighting personnel, and for the confidentiality of this action, they also didn’t structure the staff officer headquarter as accordance with the procedures.

  “We must keep a firm grasp on the time more.” Colonel Lake stared at the two getting closer color zones on the light screen, thought about it in his mind, the deepest place of these two color zones overlapped, to a first approximation, should be the congregation place of the target 1 and target 2.

  “Once the positioning was ready, notice me immediately… Crew members get ready for action.” Colonel handed the job of the temporary camp to the combat troops of the East Forest garrison command, he notice those hidden in the city crew members through the shoulder hanging communicator, got into the military armored vehicle, drove toward the deep place of the West River city in the twilight.

  Sheilor climbed and rolled to run down from the tramcar, he didn’t pay any attention to the up to the knee black water in the tunnel. He found that steel frame ladder, climbed upward desperately, he must saved every minute and every second. When he climbed up to the top, he exerted himself to break open the lid, climbed out of the tunnel, raised his elbow very proficiently, and then pushed up that extremely bulky power switch, a bright light lit up the whole room.

  It’s the mine operating room which the youngster had already stayed in for four years, he open the anti-mote door of the room, walked through it, came to the living room, and then he saw a familiar man was cross-leaning on the sofa with a kind of familiar posture.

  The repair shop boss Fengyu was like that he was having no bones, fell deeply in the soft sofa lazily, the pure silver lighter in his hand was just put out, and the air seemed to still filled with the kerosene smell. The cigarette on his dry lips was just lit up, and the cigarette had the bright red and still didn’t release the smoke yet.

  A fugitive betrayer, was just welcoming his closest employee and apprentice in this city with this kind of posture, it had the smooth and steady emotion in the absurdity.

  The face full of sweat and blood Sheilor stared at him blankly, looking at that miserable wound on his leg, not even before the breath fell smooth, he opened his mouth and asked, “how much time do we still have?”

  Fengyu raised his eyelids somewhat powerlessly, took a look at this little guy who had been keeping accompany with him for four years, had a smile slightly and said, “the electronic monitoring checks the position of the chip, sends it back to the Charter Bureau in the Capital Planet, then put up the exact positioning, and then sends it back to the implement troop, it takes at least eight minutes and twenty four seconds. You came here by the tramcar, the speed is not bad, but the positioning system has been going after you, they can find your trace through the sewer pipes in six minutes, so calculated all of these, you have about more than three minutes to talk with me.”

  “I didn’t expect that you could run out.” Fengyu had his somewhat pale face full of pride, “it looks like that I just teach something casually, then it would be no match by those craps of the Ministry of National Defense… Just didn’t expect, you would dare to run out unexpectedly, and are willing to come to find me.”

  Both of them knew each other very well, Sheilor dared to get away from the control of the army, it meant that he had already put himself on the opposite side of the Federation, he would pay extremely huge price for this. But there were still not a little touched expression on Fengyu that face, only the calmness.

  “The three minutes time is not used for chatting, after all, I am not ready to hear your last words yet.” Sheilor lowered his body and took out several green military bear load belt underneath the sofa, and got ready to bundle over Fengyu, “I will carry you to run in a hurry.”

  Fengyu apparently didn’t have the interest to be the rice dumpling, he patted on Sheilor’s hand slightly, had a flicker of sorry flashed in his eyes and said, “we couldn’t run away like this, I thought that if you wouldn’t come here, at most you would have the charge to be in custody for a few days. After all, the federal government is not the Empire those savages, they wouldn’t be able to do anything so savage.”

  “I know that you can shield the electronic surveillance.” Sheilor had somewhat unwilling or even anger to look at his boss’s face, he said, “not even have a try, how could you know that we can’t escape?”

  “Because I have already fled for more than ten years.” Fengyu coughed a couple times, smiling to take out that small tool from his arms, put it into Sheilor’s coat pocket and said, “that thing which you talked about, just can keep the shielding ability for half an hour, it can’t be used forever, what about half an hour later? It is just only this big for the West River state, rather than having the futile effort to escape, I just want to have a good time for these several minutes.”

  Sheilor had his holding the bear load belt hand stiffed in the mid-air, he looked at Fengyu that gaunt face, and gritted his teeth to say, “you could mess with the First Charter for more than ten years, why can’t you keep concealing it anymore?”

  Fengyu didn’t answer this most important question, he looked at this youngster with a faint smile on his face, he asked a question in reply, “according to your character, it seems like that you should have some words forgotten to ask me.”

  Sheilor lowered his head and asked, “wh
at on earth was the explosion on the battlefield in those days? Are you really the spy of the Empire?”

  He asked very directly, and Fengyu answered it very directly as well. Uncle blew out a mouthful of smoke ring, he said lazily, “of course, not.”
