Chapter 68
Singhota noticed that something was wrong when he realized that the communication with Qing Li was broken.
Because Menggema just now there is a side of the end of the gun burst, and at the same time and he spit, “Cherry into the boss’s daughter-in-law after becoming a capitalist, but also want to want to divide my commission for this mission, there was not much, old man live is really not easy ah.”
“You cut her communication try.” He said to Mongeroma.
After a while, Monger’s voice sounded in Singhota’s headset, “No, there is no response, it should be the enemy is playing tricks, don’t worry, she is in the house at the entrance of the village to stay well, there will be no problem.”
As a result, just as Mongoma finished speaking, Singhota saw that the house was half collapsed, he had been lying on the ground and instantly popped up, “The place where Aonashi was on standby has exploded.”
He repeated the call to Aonashi several more times, still no response, “I’ll go check it out.”
Menggema finally persuaded him, “you do not rush ah, if she is buried you and her retreat back, if she disappeared that is nothing, I will go to find her, you also return to the stronghold on the line.”
After that, Montgomery never contacted Singota again.
Singhota quickly ran to the half-collapsed house in front of the simple window frame is still there, there is no figure around the green pear, he guessed that green pear should be because of some unexpected situation left here, just ready to return, he heard a cry, in the buried, but also barely supported the other half of the house.
He took two steps forward and had just peeled away a few dirt bricks when a sharp pain shot through his leg and he instantly fell to his knees.
Sniper!
He hastily slumped down behind what remained of the low wall and looked in the direction the bullets had come from; the village was in chaos, and he couldn’t see anything.
He looked back at his thigh, it was gurgling and bleeding out, the bullet was still lodged in it, it looked like a small caliber bullet or his leg bones would have been broken.
Singota glanced in the direction the cries were coming from, dragging his immobilized leg, he moved to the other side in case the other side accidentally injured the people inside in order to attack him.
He crawled into the house across the street, which was no longer occupied, with some dry wood and miscellaneous items stacked in the corner.
He was about to brace his body to stand up when a grenade was thrown directly on the roof, with the sound of explosion, the roof was blown open, and a thick and heavy rafter with a diameter of more than fifteen centimeters smashed down, knocking on the back of his head, and he almost instantly lost consciousness and collapsed on the ground.
One after another explosions rang out, he didn’t know who had launched the intensive attack, he barely opened his eyes to see, the wall wrapped with firewood and debris slashed at his face, he blocked it with difficulty with his hand, his eye socket burst with a killing sharp pain, he didn’t even cry out, he completely fainted.
Qing Li and the others escorted Singo Towers to the gathering spot, everyone had arrived.
Yue Zhi glanced at her, “Get in the car first, leave the matters afterward to the government forces, we’ll go back to the command headquarters.”
Qing Li did not look at him, she asked Woodpecker for some hemostatic powder, and got into a car with Mongoma, giving Singota’s gunshot wound in his thigh a simple treatment, and then fixed the other smashed leg.
Their jeep sped along and in half an hour they were at the command post sixty kilometers away.
As a result, as soon as the vehicle stopped, it was surrounded by loaded government troops.
Yue Zhi looked around, his face as gloomy as rain, “We could have saved the people ourselves, and we didn’t have to make such a big deal out of it, it was you guys who joined our plan because you wanted to get rid of this organization, and to put it nicely is to help, are you trying to drive us and the organization all to extinction?”
The Lieutenant Colonel from before stepped forward and looked at Yue Zhi, “Mr. Yue, you are suspected of using illegal chemical weapons within our country to cause the tragic massacre of a village, you are now under arrest, and all your men are to be locked up, with all their weapons seized.”
Yue Qi smiled and nodded, “Very well, so you are waiting for me here.”
They did not resist, with just two dozen people clashing with the troops that was purely getting tired of living and looking for death.
“Don’t be afraid, we’ll be able to go home soon.” Yue Zhi instructed the others a few words and finally said to Qing Li.
Qing Li gave him a deep look and lowered her eyes without saying anything.
Yue Zhi’s teeth tightened for a moment, an unspeakable annoyance surged in his heart, as he yanked Qing Li over and kissed her hard on both lips, not letting go until he had sucked out another taste of blood from the lips she had just bitten through that were only just barely keeping from bleeding, “Wait for me.”
He was taken away by the troops and the rest of them calmly surrendered their weapons and even their bulletproof undershirts.
Saiji put down the AN-94 assault . Rifle with a curse, “Damn, I’m not over it yet.”
Qing Li wanted to ask how to be considered addicted, killing more than two hundred people from the organization wasn’t addicting, watching more than six hundred innocent people in the village being slaughtered wasn’t addicting.
But that would make her look like an idiot, a freak, if she said it, so she ended up saying nothing, the numbing restraint even giving her a headache.
They hadn’t been moved, though, and had been confined to a military tent.
“I need the medkit! Give me the medkit right now, things always come out, and if we’re cleared, our lives will all be on your head!” Woodpecker checked on Singota’s condition and then started yelling at the soldiers guarding them outside.
When there was no response from the other side he yelled it all over again in English, French and Spanish one by one.
Qing Li looked at Singota whose breath was getting weaker and weaker on the ground, she got up and walked over to Woodpecker’s side, her eyes staring coldly and desperately at the soldier, “Give us the medkit now or I’m going to barge out of here unless you beat me to death.” With that said she took a step forward, even grabbing the rifle the other man was holding in his arms.
“You guys wait first.” The soldier gave her an uneasy look and took down the walkie-talkie on his waist to speak off to the side, and ten minutes later, two men brought over two large medical kits.
The others stayed as far away as they could, making a little room for them in the cramped and stuffy tent.
Falcon tied several strong flashlights together and hung them from the ceiling to act as surgical lights.
Woodpecker hurriedly began to treat Singhota, removing the stainless steel cup covering his face, and the moment he saw the finger-thick dead branch, he let out a “tsk” and frowned with a serious face, “This eyeball can’t be saved, it can only be removed.”
Qingli was stunned, “Remove it?”
“Nonsense! How can it be preserved after all this!” Woodpecker gave Singota a shot of anesthetic and took out iodine vapors, “You block his mouth and nose, I’ll sterilize it first.”
With a wooden face, almost a command and a movement, Aoori held the thick gauze to block Singota’s high nose and watched as Woodpecker poured the entire bottle of iodine vapors over the upper half of Singota’s face.
“It’s a terrible environment here, but it’ll die faster if you leave it alone.” Woodpecker grabbed the dead branch and looked up at Green Pear, “How about someone else, or maybe you turn around?”
Aonashi looked at Singhota’s pale face and shook her head, “Start, make sure he survives.”
She watched the moment the woodpecker flew and pulled out the dead branch, her whole body seemed to be dying as well, she said to herself breathe breathe breathe, but she couldn’t breathe, it was like a stone statue of senselessness.
Woodpecker stuffed several pieces of iodine-soaked gauze into Singota’s suddenly empty eye sockets, his expression particularly ugly, “He’s not responding at all, he may have an intracranial infection and is already in a deep coma.”
If the infection was serious, Singhota’s life would have to be accounted for.
“Save him.” Qing Li heard her own voice, but she didn’t even realize she was speaking, her stone-like eyes were lightless and lifeless, “It’s all my fault, he doesn’t deserve to die, he can’t die, save him.”
Woodpecker felt that there was something wrong with her, but he couldn’t be bothered to ask more questions, “I can only try my best, it’s better to go back early, not to mention here, the medical standard in Nigeria is very poor.”
Aoori watched as Woodpecker removed the remnants of eye tissue from Singota’s decontaminated eye socket, put it into a medical waste bag, stitched up the wound inside and the nearly slashed eyelid, and finally wrapped the eye in a circle with a bandage.
It was strange, eyes so blue as if they were the sky were nothing more than black and red tissue after the injury, completely unrecognizable as usual.
She didn’t look away the entire time, concentrating like a medical student watching an autopsy procedure.
Woodpecker pulled out the antibiotics and infused Singhota with them before finally sighing in relief, “We’ll see what happens next.” Then it was back on the hoof to start working on the bullet in Singota’s leg.
“His hands are hot.” Aonashi said as she squeezed Singota’s hand.
“Because there’s already a bacterial infection, there’s definitely a fever.” Woodpecker said, pinching a 5.56 caliber bullet out of Singota’s leg, “If it had been replaced with a 12.7, he would have had to lose this leg.”
Aonashi looked at the bullet and didn’t say anything.
Finally all the healing process was over, Woodpecker’s body was all drenched in sweat, he took a long breath of relief, “It’s hot as hell, at least get us a fan.”
The medical kit was already busted, it was obviously impossible to get them another fan, in fact they hadn’t been moved or received any news for an entire day after that.
The weather was just too hot, and everyone was irritable, but they could only endure it.
Qing Li glanced at the unusually composed Xiji and replaced two towels on Singota’s armpits and the base of his thighs.
Singota had been unconscious and was running a constant fever, so in order to cool him down she had to use such primitive means as Woodpecker had said.
The government troops had brought them a forty-liter plastic bucket of water, but there were twenty-four people here, which averaged out to less than two liters per person, and Qing Li hadn’t had a sip of water since the early hours of the morning, and she’d used all of it to wipe Singota’s body down to cool him down, and other than that, she’d hardly said another word.
Liang Jin brought her a cup of water, “It’s too hot, if you don’t take in water you’ll get heat stroke.”
Qing Li was still sitting beside Singhota with her legs wrapped around her, as if she hadn’t heard his words.
Liang Jin squatted in front of her and looked at her expressionless face, “Don’t you worry, sir will definitely be fine, and we will be able to leave here soon.”
Qing Li finally reacted, she moved her sluggish eyes and looked at Liang Jin, her voice hoarse, “Worry? I’m not worried.”
Liang Jin looked at her unusual reaction, his heart was jittery and his expression was ugly, “What do you mean?”
“This is all planned, everything is within your and his grasp, what do I have to worry about.” After Qing Li finished speaking, she lowered her eyes to look at the ground again.
Liang Jin’s throat rolled, “Ao Li ……”
“When does he plan to take us away.” Qing Li asked, “Waiting for Singhota to die through?”
