Weapons! Hou Zi was the boss of the underworld. He must have guns and ammunition! As an illegal mercenary, Xia Jinyuan would need guns and ammunition. How could he not have weapons to protect himself before his mission ends?
"You came back to the Southern Province because you trust Hou Zi and you know that he will definitely help you! You need Hou Zi to get you weapons!" She was shuddering as she opened her mouth. She trembled so furiously even the tips of her fingers were shivering lightly.
After returning to his country, he still needed weapons to protect himself. What kind of people did he lure back? There was one thing she knew. The people that he lured back into the country had weapons on them too!
The smile on Xia Jinyuan's face got deeper. His gaze got deeper too.
Guiding Ye Jian to understand the danger of his current mission and hearing her analyze his reason for coming back actually gave him a sense of pride.
This was his little fox. A brave and strong young lady that would get tougher when things got more difficult.
"That's right. I'm an illegal mercenary now so I can't go back to the military to get weapons. If I need guns and ammunition, I can only look for Hou Zi. Coming back to the Southern Province was my best choice."
"Our mission for coming back to the country is to 'draw the snake out of its hole'. I'm in charge of leaving behind pieces of evidence seemingly unintentionally so that these 'snakes' from overseas will be lured to the Southern Province. This will give my other comrades a chance to escape. So, Ye Jian, I brought a huge danger to you."
"Are you afraid?" This was what he asked her. There were only three words and his voice was extremely soft when he asked. However, every single word was filled with seriousness. The pressure of each word was like a mountain pressing down on you.
Ye Jian wasn't afraid. She wasn't afraid of danger at all. She wasn't worried about the danger he brought either!
When she opened her mouth again, Ye Jian noticed that her voice was so tight it sounded like a string that was about to break. "What are you going to do now? What about your identity?"
That's right, she wasn't afraid of danger. She was just afraid that he couldn't get his identity back!
Xia Jinyuan's eyes felt teary when he heard this. The girl he liked wasn't afraid of the danger he brought to her. Instead, she was afraid… that he wouldn't be able to get his identity back.
Major Xia felt his heart aching. He forcefully suppressed the urge to hug her and took a deep breath secretly. Then, he said calmly, "I'm an illegal mercenary now but my identity will naturally be revived once I end my mission."
Ye Jian felt the huge mountain pressing down in her heart exploding with a bang into a pile of dust. Her entire body felt relaxed now…
So he was able to regain his identity once his mission ended. That's good, that's good… Before she could heave a sigh of relief, what Xia Jinyuan said after this made her heart turn cold once again.
"These aren't problems at all. The problem is the injured K7. He contacted G3 last night but he didn't even send his coordinates. Thus, I feel that he didn't manage to escape and was 'bitten' instead. Little Fox, this is the biggest problem currently."
"G3 is K7's person to contact. I'm G3's person to contact. In this mission, each person will only have one person to contact. K7 climbed out of a field of gunfire. His mercenary uniform had turned into strips because of the explosions. When I saw your school uniform and recalled K7's injury at that time…"
He stopped talking. He didn't want to personally talk about his suspicion that his injured comrade was taken as a hostage. His gaze, which was always on Ye Jian, turned heavy.
Ye Jian's emotions were all triggered by what Xia Jinyuan said. She stared at him intently. She didn't ask about anything but she asked for herself, "Captain Xia, if you tell me about your mission and all the difficulties that you face now, it means that I can ask questions about your mission as well as participate in your mission directly, right?"
