When Qu Sen confirmed Ruan Chuntang's whereabouts, one of them was at the top of the steep slope, while the other was at the bottom of the slope. They were basically parallel to each other.
Qu Sen wasn't in a hurry to make a move. He waited until Ruan Chuntang had passed by him before he quietly got up and held his pistol firmly with both hands. He then moved down the slope in small steps.
Soon, through the gaps between the tree trunks, he could vaguely see a figure wearing a red and white checkered jacket. The figure was crouching and moving quickly.
After staring at Ruan Chuntang for a long time, Qu Sen was able to confirm his target after looking at his clothes and hairstyle. He didn't hesitate to aim his gun at him.
Qu Sen hadn't used a pistol much. He had only used it a few times during his annual exams in school, and they were all fixed targets.
Although the effective killing range of a pistol was around fifty meters, Qu Sen wasn't confident at all if the distance between him and the target was more than thirty meters. Therefore, before the distance between them widened, he was prepared to take down Ruan Chuntang.
A distance of ten meters was very close, but Ruan Chuntang was too fast. His line of sight was only slightly blocked by the small tree before he ran another two or three meters. Qu Sen didn't dare to delay any longer. His right foot stepped on the trunk of a small tree, and he held the gun with both hands. The moment he locked onto Ruan Chuntang's back, he pulled the trigger.
After a crisp gunshot, Ruan Chuntang's buttocks spurted out a small amount of blood. He stumbled and fell to the ground.
Just as Qu Sen was hesitating whether to finish him off, Ruan Chuntang turned around and hid behind a nearby tree. He raised his hand and fired two shots at the place where Qu Sen was standing.
A bullet whizzed past Qu Sen's ear. At the same time, the small tree that provided support for Qu Sen's body suddenly exploded. The broken wood splashed onto Qu Sen's face, causing him pain.
Qu Sen panicked and subconsciously wanted to lie down. However, his legs loosened and he rolled down the slope.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" There were three consecutive gunshots, all of which were aimed at Qu Sen's rolling trajectory.
Qu Sen didn't know how many times he had flipped. After stabilizing his body, he didn't dare to care about the pain in his body. He raised his gun with one hand and fired at Ruan Chuntang's direction.
The bullet flew away, but the gunshot scared Ruan Chuntang and made him crouch down. He didn't dare to continue shooting at Qu Sen.
Qu Sen seized the opportunity and rolled twice to the back of a thicker tree. Just as he was half squatting, a bullet flew past his shoulder, leaving behind a piece of tree bark.
Qu Sen could hear the sound of the bullet whistling past his ears. He felt the arteries on both sides of his temple throbbing wildly. In just a short while, his entire body was soaked in sweat.
After waiting for two seconds, there was no movement from Ruan Chuntang's side. Qu Sen quickly poked his head out to take a look. He saw the bastard creeping up the slope. When he saw Qu Sen poking his head out, he raised his gun and aimed at him.
Qu Sen hurriedly hid his head behind the tree. After waiting for a while, he didn't hear any gunshots. He assumed that Ruan Chuntang had run out of bullets. He poked his head out from the other side of the tree and raised his gun to shoot.
However, just as he poked his head out, a gunshot rang out and he felt a burning pain on his neck.
Qu Sen looked at Ruan Chuntang who was aiming his gun at him. He knew that a bullet had just flown past his neck. If he hadn't cautiously poked his head out from the other side and caught Ruan Chuntang off guard, he would have been hit.
Under the intense fear in his heart, Qu Sen didn't dodge anymore. He held the gun with both hands and aimed at Ruan Chuntang's position. He pulled the trigger four times.
The first shot stirred up a cloud of dust less than ten centimeters away from Ruan Chuntang. Ruan Chuntang had no choice but to give up on climbing up the slope. He crouched and retreated down the slope again. A string of bullets followed behind him as he hid behind a tree.
The tree wasn't thick enough. Ruan Chuntang's right shoulder was exposed to Qu Sen's vision. However, Qu Sen didn't fire after aiming for a while.
The Type 64 pistol only had seven bullets in total. Qu Sen had already fired six. In other words, if the remaining bullet wasn't enough to take down Ruan Chuntang, Qu Sen would be in danger.
Ruan Chuntang, who was behind the tree, was panting violently. Even his exposed shoulders were heaving up and down.
Qu Sen felt pain on the right side of his neck. At the same time, his neck was itchy. He knew that the wound was bleeding. However, he didn't dare to be distracted. He was afraid that he would miss his only chance to shoot.
The Type 64 pistol wasn't heavy, but after holding it for a long time, his shoulders and arms were sore. Seeing Ruan Chuntang's undulating shoulder gradually calm down, Qu Sen didn't dare to relax. His left hand steadily held the palm of his right hand as he tried to slow down his breathing.
In his vision, Ruan Chuntang's exposed shoulder suddenly flashed. Qu Sen instantly held his breath and moved the muzzle to the right. He was ready to find a fatal position to shoot the moment he turned around.
However, the exposed half of his body didn't turn around. Instead, it flashed and quickly retreated behind the tree. Just as Qu Sen subconsciously adjusted the muzzle to the left, Ruan Chuntang's hand holding the gun suddenly appeared from the left side of the tree trunk. Then, Qu Sen saw half of his face.
"Bang ~ Bang ~"
Two gunshots sounded. Ruan Chuntang's body fell to the ground with the sound of the last gunshot.
While Qu Sen was gasping for breath, a short branch above his head fell down along with a few emerald leaves.
The branch brushed past Qu Sen's nose and fell in front of him. However, the half squatting Qu Sen didn't seem to notice. He let the falling leaves fall on his head.
"Team leader … right?"
"Team leader?"
"Chief … Qu?"
The general reconnaissance drone in the air descended a little. The operator shouted with the on-board speaker for a long time before Qu Sen came back to his senses. He looked up at the drone that had descended to a height of about 50 meters and waved his hand, indicating that he was fine.
In that moment, not only was Qu Sen scared, but the leaders of the Municipal Bureau in the command center were also scared.
Because there was no signal relay in the command center, the quality of the video received in the command center was very poor. They could barely see the position of Qu Sen and Ruan Chuntang.
Everyone in the command center saw that Qu Sen was shaken by Ruan Chuntang's fake movement. Then, they heard two gunshots filled with static. Then, Ruan Chuntang fell. Qu Sen was half squatting there motionless. It was impossible to determine his situation from the video.
It wasn't until they saw Qu Sen wave at the camera that everyone let out a sigh of relief.
"Little brat, why didn't you move for so long!" After the atmosphere in the command center relaxed, Big Brother jokingly scolded.
"He's probably scared out of his wits," a third-level police officer said with a smile.
Just as the depressing atmosphere in the command center relaxed, Qu Sen felt that his three souls and seven spirits had finally returned to their original positions.
Just now, when he saw Ruan Chuntang reveal half of his head, he launched his attack. Originally, he was aiming for Ruan Chuntang's head, but in the end, he hit his throat.
And the moment he fired, Ruan Chuntang's gun was already pointed at him. When Qu Sen saw blood spurting out from Ruan Chuntang's neck, he saw Ruan Chuntang's muzzle pointing at him with a ball of gunfire.
At that moment, even though his brain made the decision to dodge, his body didn't have time to react.
Luckily, Ruan Chuntang's body leaned back after being shot, and the gun was raised uncontrollably. The bullet hit a branch above Qu Sen's head. If Qu Sen had hesitated a little bit more, it would have been hard to say who would have been hit first.
"Director, Wu Entai just crossed the mountain ridge on the west side of the main peak of the forest park. The tracking drone has exceeded the range limit and lost connection." The surveillance officer reported loudly.
"Immediately arrange for people to intercept him!" The smile on Big Brother's face instantly disappeared as he ordered in a deep voice.
"We don't have people on the north side of the main peak."
"What?"
"Our second line of interception is only on the southeast side of the main peak. We don't have people on the north side of the park."
"Pa!" Big Brother slammed his hand on the table and said sternly, "Immediately arrange for the police force to surround the perimeter of the forest park. Report the location to the armed police force and have them surround it. Also, are there any of our people behind Wu Entai? "
"Yes! Zhu Ye has been chasing with three people, but they've been left a few hundred meters behind. We can't contact them anymore. Without the guidance of the drone, we'll probably lose them soon. "
Big Brother's face was gloomy as he scanned the few surveillance images. When he saw that Qu Sen was examining Ruan Chuntang's body, he pointed at the screen and said, "Have Qu Sen circle around! Fire as a warning shot if you see anyone and give directions to Zhu Ye and the armed police force. "
"Yes!" The communications officer immediately contacted the drone operator.
Qu Sen looked at the bullet hole in Ruan Chuntang's neck that was still bleeding and his body that was still slightly twitching. He felt a wave of annoyance and his stomach churned. He suddenly had a strong urge to vomit.
Just as he was about to turn around and find a place to hide, he heard a faint shout from above his head, "Wu … Tai, east side … main peak. Go … Intercept … Fire … Fire … Point … "
Qu Sen listened to the noisy shouting and looked at the surrounding mountains. He knew that the drone's transmission signal was affected because it had descended too low. He raised his hand and motioned for the drone to go higher.
He waved his hand twice. When he saw that the drone operator did not respond, he put his hands on his mouth and shouted, "The signal is too bad. Go higher and say it again."
The signal was affected by the mountain, and it was two-way. Qu Sen could not hear what the drone operator was shouting, and the drone operator could not hear what he was saying either. He subconsciously lowered the drone's altitude again.
However, after descending a few meters, the operator clearly felt that the drone's response to the control was getting slower. He glanced at the upper right corner of the screen and found that the signal strength had changed from yellow to red.
The operator realized that something was wrong and tried to control the controller to stop the drone from descending. However, no matter how he pulled it up, the image that was full of noise was still descending.
Before he could think of a way to deal with it, the connection signal strength at the lower right corner of the control platform instantly turned gray. All data exchange stopped.
"F * ck!"
