Tang Xinyi pursed her lips, a slight smile already gracing her face.
She had been observing the area for a while and had concluded that there were definitely people here.
"It's time to spice things up for them," Tang Xinyi said to herself, without directly answering Gu Xiaojie's question.
With that, Tang Xinyi directly pulled out an assault rifle from beside the driver's seat and, without a moment's hesitation, began firing at the second floor.
Bang bang bang...
As bullets rained down on the sniper positions on the second floor, Li Erniu, who was hiding there, was startled.
If it weren't for the obstruction in front of him, he would have been hit.
Immediately, Li Erniu held his breath and continued to observe the situation.
Hearing the gunshots, Qin Feng also cautiously peeked his head out of the water to assess the situation.
He wasn't going to stay submerged in the murky water indefinitely.
Meanwhile, He Chenguang, who was outside, also saw what was happening inside.
He tightened his grip on his rifle, momentarily unsure of what to do.
"What... why did this woman show up? We're at a critical moment."
"Exactly. We were on the verge of a breakthrough, and now someone has disrupted it," Wang Yanbing agreed.
If it weren't for the sudden appearance of these two women, he and He Chenguang would have already been preparing to launch their assault.
The appearance of these two women had forced them to abandon their previous plan.
After firing at some of the sniper positions on the second floor, Tang Xinyi's bullets were met with silence.
Tang Xinyi stopped her actions and continued to observe the surroundings.
"Didn't I tell you? There's no one here," Gu Xiaojie said, sounding exasperated.
Tang Xinyi didn't reply, merely sweeping her gaze around again.
Suddenly, as Tang Xinyi looked down at the murky water, she let out a cold laugh. She clearly saw a head moving in that spot.
Tang Xinyi's position as a director proved she was capable, so her ability to spot someone in the water was not surprising.
Tang Xinyi drew her pistol, without any extraneous movements, and slowly, step by step, walked towards the murky water ahead.
Seeing this, Gu Xiaojie became terrified. She immediately ran to Tang Xinyi's side, grabbed her arm, and said with a trembling voice, "Director, let's get out of here quickly. This creepy place might have all sorts of spooky things. Let's go."
With that, Gu Xiaojie reached out to pull Tang Xinyi away. She was naturally timid, and being in this factory area with no sounds made her feel like she was going to be scared to death.
"Shut up!" Tang Xinyi shot Gu Xiaojie a glance and said, somewhat angrily.
Although Tang Xinyi couldn't directly call Gu Xiaojie incompetent, it was clear that she was very dissatisfied with her.
At this moment, Gu Xiaojie continued to tug at Tang Xinyi's sleeve, trying to get her to leave.
As they struggled, Gu Xiaojie accidentally slipped, and her body tilted backward.
Seeing this, Tang Xinyi immediately put away her pistol and pulled Gu Xiaojie up. Their positions shifted, and Tang Xinyi stepped directly onto the hat she had seen moving earlier.
Before Qin Feng could do anything, Gu Xiaojie let out a frightened scream.
"Ah!"
Hearing the scream, Qin Feng knew he could no longer hide.
With a cold expression, he burst out of the water.
At the same time, Qin Feng shoved Tang Xinyi forward.
Tang Xinyi, watching Qin Feng emerge from the water, said directly, "The first one has appeared."
In fact, Tang Xinyi had done this intentionally. She wanted to confirm if there were indeed four people, and it seemed they were.
Qin Feng's expression was clearly displeased. The moment he emerged, he knew this woman had acted deliberately.
However, Qin Feng also knew that he now needed to find another suitable hiding spot to take shots, or he would lose this exercise.
Without delay, Qin Feng immediately ran in the opposite direction. He moved at an extremely fast pace and soon disappeared.
Bang bang bang...
At this moment, gunshots also rang out from outside.
He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing, who had been guarding the exterior, heard the commotion inside and rushed in.
Their thinking was simple: if there were sounds from inside, it meant something had happened.
This was the most opportune moment for an assault.
"Qin Feng, I've got you," Wang Yanbing shouted excitedly as he ran in through the entrance.
He Chenguang quickly took cover behind a nearby obstruction. After entering, they exchanged a look and, confirming there were no immediate threats, Wang Yanbing moved towards the car Tang Xinyi and Gu Xiaojie had driven in.
They knew the car would serve as a suitable cover.
Seeing the two enter, Tang Xinyi smiled and said, "The second and third have appeared."
"What do you mean by first, second, and third?" Gu Xiaojie said, rushing towards Wang Yanbing.
Tang Xinyi tried to call out to her, but to no avail.
Seeing Wang Yanbing take cover, He Chenguang narrowed his eyes and immediately radioed, "Blue Nine, Blue Ten, target acquired. Proceed with cleanup. Over."
Upon hearing this, Xu Tianlong and Song Kaifei immediately got out of their car and ran into the factory.
At this moment, Wang Yanbing, hidden by the car, stood up, aiming his weapon, and said, "Red One, don't run. I've found you..."
Before Wang Yanbing could finish, Gu Xiaojie walked up to him, took his gun, and started scolding him, "Are you even human? Why didn't you come out when I asked if anyone was here earlier?"
Wang Yanbing was a bit taken aback but calmly explained, "Move aside. This is an exercise."
"I don't care if it's an exercise or not!" Gu Xiaojie insisted, pushing Wang Yanbing.
Wang Yanbing, now quite agitated, pushed Gu Xiaojie aside and intended to go after Qin Feng.
He had barely taken a few steps when Tang Xinyi kicked him to the ground.
Wang Yanbing got back up, and Tang Xinyi immediately launched her attack.
At the same time, Xu Tianlong and Song Kaifei also ran in.
Just as Qin Feng left the murky water, he saw Song Kaifei running towards him.
Since he was here, it wouldn't be right to let this person go unpunished.
Without further ado, Qin Feng flashed past Song Kaifei and fired a shot at him.
Hearing the gunshot and seeing the blue smoke rise from his body, Song Kaifei angrily took off his hat.
Well, he hadn't even had a chance to do anything spectacular yet, and he'd already run into someone's line of fire.
His luck was truly something else.
Meanwhile, Xu Tianlong had also made his way to the second floor, searching for the hidden personnel.
Li Erniu was right there. He narrowed his eyes and threw a punch towards Xu Tianlong's head.
Xu Tianlong reacted faster, stepping back and delivering a counter-kick.
They engaged in a fierce fight.
As the fight progressed, Erniu found himself at a disadvantage and pulled out a grenade, intending to take them both down.
Seeing this, Xu Tianlong immediately rushed to seize it. In the ensuing struggle, one person held the pin, and the other held the grenade.
Seeing this situation, both of them were stunned.
The next second, Bang...
