Simulation Game: Crisis Management-Chapter 382 - 184: A Dramatic Turn of Events

"Everybody get down now! Huazi, I told you to get down!"

"Fei, what’s happening..."

Four dark figures were swiftly moving through the crisscrossing dense forest. Suddenly, the front-most man, slender in build, seemed to hear something and urgently rolled to the side into the bushes, shouting back to the others behind him.

They were the four main suspects wanted by Ningzhou City State Security Bureau!

Li Youhua was halfway through speaking when a mosquito-like buzzing rapidly approached from behind. With a "buzz," it zipped overhead. "Damn it! What the hell is flying so fast?"

"It’s called a drone, you country bumpkin!"

Liu Guanghui spat a curse, crouching behind the thick trunk of a cottonwood tree on the front right.

Bald-headed Zhao Wenwu squinted his single eyelid and lowered his voice, looking puzzled at his side, "Fei, don’t drones have a distance limit? The signal in the mountains is poor, shouldn’t be able to fly this far, right? Could it be that Lei has caught up?"

"It’s a forestry patrol drone with a mobile base station, so flying in the mountains isn’t a problem."

Sun Hengfei, who had dealt with forest police during his early years in Qinchuan, was very familiar with these things. "Wu Province Public Security Bureau is indeed formidable. First, they deployed officers from different regions, nearly catching us off guard. Now they’re using forest drones to enhance aerial lockdown. Huazi probably exposed our position just now..."

"What? Fei, what do we do now? We’re still 4 kilometers from the rendezvous point!"

"Life and death are governed by fate, wealth and honor are dictated by heaven! We have to split up!"

Sun Hengfei’s eyes flickered, his brow exuding a bandit-like vibe, "Huazi, you go with Ahui, and I’ll go with Zhao Wenwu. Only this way can we disperse their police force; otherwise, when they regroup around us, facing the Armed Police Force’s firepower, we won’t stand a chance!"

"We’ll do as you say, Fei. We’ll meet at the riverbank!"

"Wait!"

Liu Guanghui was just about to stand up when Sun Hengfei suddenly stopped him, removing his backpack, retrieving a desert-green tactical bulletproof helmet, and taking out two bottles of water. "Take the bag; it’s got food and water."

"Thanks, Fei, take care!"

"Take care!"

As Liu Guanghui reluctantly left with the backpack tightly in his grip, Zhao Wenwu, who had been silent, finally spoke, "Fei, even if we split up, won’t we still be unable to shake off the armed police?"

"We can’t shake them off. I’ve been told that the provincial bureau has dispatched a large force; there are too many people searching the mountains, so we need to create a diversion with two people!"

"You mean..."

"I spilt the she-wolf urine in the bag."

While speaking, Sun Hengfei put on his tactical helmet, gradually squinting, his eyes dark with restless intent.

The distinct black and white of his eyes reflected the eerie forest ahead.

The police dog "Lingxi," with a viciously aggressive gaze, suddenly accelerated toward the right side of the forest ahead.

"Lingxi has found a target!"

A SWAT dog handler whispered, and all the surrounding armed and special police raised their Type 95 rifles, taking up a low stance in readiness.

After 300 meters, Lingxi paused at the spot where the four suspects had just split paths.

It circled twice, sniffing at the grass and branches, and finally, with a determined look, locked onto the right side. Just as the handler was about to shout, Zhang Wenjun’s tactical headset carried a voice from the command center, "Forest surveillance drone has locked onto your right front, 600 meters ahead, there’s something rapidly moving through the woods!"

"600 meters, right front!"

"Triangular tactical formation! Quick!"

The leaders shouted in succession, and with a confirmed target location, the three search teams immediately broke into several triangular groups, dashing toward the right-front forest.

Soon, under the dual lock of the police dog Lingxi and the drone, the main force finally closed in on the suspects.

"Path of movement detected ahead!"

"Prepare to engage! Attention! Make sure main suspects Sun Hengfei and Zhao Wenwu are captured alive!"

On the command of the special police squad’s leader, two police helicopters joined in, their massive beams sweeping across, with specialized airborne spotlights boasting over 35,000 lumens, lighting up the forest like daylight.

An armed police scout immediately spotted shadows within the forest.

"Target sighted! Two individuals! Suspected to be main suspect Liu Guang..."

"Rattatat!"

"Take cover!"

Just as the armed police finished speaking, the forest ahead suddenly erupted with the sound akin to silenced weapons from movies and games, followed by gusts of air slicing across the woodland, rustling the bushes intensely.

Almost the instant the gunfire sounded, Gu Ji ducked behind Gao Bo, who held a shield, while the armed police intuitively hit the dirt, adopting prone firing positions.

"The suspects are using modified versions of the Condor high-pressure air rifle, with added burst function. This air rifle’s power is equivalent to that of a Type 64 pistol, with lethal potential within 20 meters. Squad 4, everyone stay alert!"

"Yes, Zhang Zhong!"

Just as the special patrol unit was responding, Zeng Dan from the National Security Special Service unexpectedly pulled out a loudspeaker, hid behind a bulletproof shield, and shouted out, "This is Zeng Dan from the National Security Bureau. You are surrounded. Drop your weapons, raise your hands above your heads, and walk out of the forest slowly. Cease any senseless resistance. Surrendering is your only way out!"

"Surrender your damn ass!!"

Bam—!

Crash!

Unexpectedly, the only response to Zeng Dan was a violent gunshot, and the forest suddenly erupted like a hailstorm, with chaos breaking out.

"Chizhou accent! It’s Li Youhua! From the sounds of it, it should be the domestic 16mm single-barreled shotgun Pang Guomin mentioned!"
