Colleen's enthusiasm did not make Maggie feel uncomfortable.
On the contrary, the innocent Maggie quickly adapted to her new home under Colleen's enthusiasm.
Colleen looked at Maggie suspiciously. As a girl who had lived on the streets for a long time, Colleen did not believe that there would be someone as innocent as her.
However, as she watched Kieran move the supplies back and forth, Colleen did not show her suspicions.
"If you're pretending … Let's see how long you can keep up that act!"
Colleen snorted coldly in her heart. She did not pay any more attention to Maggie and started to help Kieran move the supplies.
Colleen was truly passionate about these items.
Food, water, weapons!
No one knew the value of these items better than Colleen, who had lived in the chaos of war for four months.
Maggie also joined the team to carry the goods.
Although she was weak, she tried her best to help.
The three of them worked together, and soon, everything on the trolley was moved into the ground, including the trolley itself.
Both Kieran and Colleen would not give up on the cart, which was a useful tool for carrying things.
"Did you empty the Vulture's base?"
Colleen asked as she cleaned up all the tracks Kieran had left behind.
After all, there was so much food and water. It was too shocking.
"Only half!"
Kieran didn't mind Colleen's cautiousness at all. He had been very careful on his way back, trying not to leave any traces behind. Even if he did, he would cover it up and clean it up, but it was inevitable that he would miss something. If someone helped him check again, he would be more than happy to do so.
His next opponent would not be as easy to deal with as the armed thug from before.
"Colleen, we're in big trouble!"
Just as Colleen was lamenting the fact that the Vulture had gotten his hands on so many supplies, Kieran spoke up and told her everything about the rebel major.
"Oh my god! Are you crazy? "
"Do you know what you're doing?"
"Why did you provoke a rebel officer?"
Colleen growled again as she listened to Kieran's story. She was as excited as she was when Kieran tried to sneak into the Vulture's nest alone.
The only difference was that Colleen was getting more and more worried.
Or even … despair!
Even a child would understand the difference between a group of hooligans and the army.
Not to mention Colleen, a girl who had personally witnessed the strength of the Rebel Army.
Without waiting for Kieran's reply, Colleen said, "Let's go! Bring some food and water, we need to get out of here before dawn! No matter how well-hidden this place is, it can't hide from the rebel army's carpet search! "
Colleen walked towards the canned food and bottled water that had been placed neatly.
However, before he could take two steps, Kieran grabbed his arm.
Colleen turned around in shock and saw Kieran smiling at her.
"You can still smile at a time like this!"
Colleen said angrily.
"Don't worry! Things aren't as bad as you think. At least, the major isn't as powerful as you think he is. He's just a mid-ranking officer! "
Kieran comforted Colleen, his tone gentle.
Colleen's attitude towards Kieran and the rebels had made Kieran's impression of her even more. She hadn't wanted to separate from Kieran, and that had made Kieran feel even better about her.
Colleen could feel the change in Kieran's tone.
She was no longer polite but distant. A few minutes ago, if she hadn't known that Kieran had gotten himself into such trouble, Colleen would have been very happy about it.
But now …
Colleen was anxious.
If Kieran had been a stranger, Colleen would have left him alone and run for her life. But Kieran had fought by her side, and they got along well. They were practically friends.
Colleen would never allow herself to do that to a friend.
On top of that, Colleen's feelings for Kieran had been stirred up during that time.
That was why Colleen was so anxious.
"Even a mid-ranking officer has hundreds of men under him. They're all armed to the teeth! And they're well trained! It's definitely not something that trash like Vulture can compare to! "
Colleen's voice was full of worry.
"I never underestimate my enemies! When I brought back that bag of jewelry, I knew what I had to do. I have a good plan … "
Kieran said.
Just as he was about to explain the situation to Colleen, his phone rang in his pocket.
The white screen showed the caller's name.
It was the major.
Kieran hung up the phone without hesitation. He unplugged the battery and said to Colleen, "That guy noticed something was wrong with the mall! I don't have time to explain. Help me prepare food and water. I need to leave for two or three days. Don't worry, I'll come back safely! "
Colleen's lips trembled. She wanted to say something, but nothing came out.
She turned around and picked up Kieran's backpack. She filled it with canned food and bottled water.
Kieran picked up the strange-looking sniper rifle. After a quick check, he put four magazines and two handgun magazines into the backpack.
"Be careful!"
Colleen said as she looked at the magazines and the guns in the backpack.
"Yes!"
Kieran nodded.
Lastly, he checked his dagger and the [M1905] at his waist.
When everything was ready, he smiled at Colleen again. Without waiting for her to respond, he quickly left his hiding place and disappeared into the light of dawn.
Colleen looked at Kieran's back and raised her arm.
Her arm fell limply to the ground.
"Kieran will come back safely!"
Maggie, who had witnessed the whole process, racked her brain to come up with a comforting sentence.
"Of course!"
Maggie's voice made Colleen realize that there were other people around them. She quickly put away her softness and put on a strong front.
"Kieran will come back safely! He's my ally! "
Colleen paused for a moment before continuing.
…
Rebel Camp.
Major Zarukhar slammed his fist on the table. The pen, documents and ashtray on the table flew into the air from the impact.
This caused the adjutant to tremble.
One must know that the superior in front of him was famous for being ruthless and cruel.
He treated his enemies the same way.
He treated his own people the same way.
As Zarukhar's third adjutant, he did not want to follow in the footsteps of his first two lieutenants.
Thus, this adjutant stood even straighter, not moving at all.
Zarukhar did not care about his adjutant. His heart was filled with rage.
"Damn it! Bastard! "
Zarukhar squeezed the words out of his teeth with a ferocious look on his face.
After finding out that the Vulture was dead and the leader of the nest had been replaced, Zarukhar had been worried about the new leader he had never met. So he had sent out his best scouts to investigate.
However, the news that his men brought back shocked him.
The Vulture's nest had been destroyed. No one had survived!
Zarukhar knew that he had been tricked.
And a few minutes ago, the phone call that was hung up proved this point with absolute certainty.
"You are a rat in the gutter, a bug. Do you think you can escape safely with your little tricks? After talking to me, you must've left the Vulture's nest as fast as you could. That was forty minutes ago, and now there's only half an hour left before dawn. One hour and ten minutes. Where can you go with your legs and such a heavy load? "
The rage in his heart did not make him lose his mind. He carefully calculated his next move.
He calculated carefully, then turned to his adjutant and said, "After dawn, send out all my men. With the Sixth Avenue Mall as the starting point, search every hiding place within a twenty-kilometer radius …"
Ring, ring, ring!
Before Zarukhar could finish, his phone rang again.
The Vulture!
That was the name on the screen.
"Start tracking!"
Zarukhar immediately stopped what he was about to say and shouted at his aide.
The adjutant quickly went to the tracker on the side of the room and started to operate it.
As a matter of fact, he had been waiting there to track the culprit.
His adjutant was very confident in tracking military equipment. In less than ten seconds, he would be able to lock down the culprit's location.
He had even thought of how to show off his skills so that his superior would look at him in a different light.
But … the call didn't go through.
He had even angered Zarukhar!
Zarukhar's anger had made his adjutant tremble in fear. He had cursed the culprit a thousand times over.
Now, his chance had come again.
His adjutant would not let his guard down.
He could already imagine that if he failed again, he would be killed by Saluka's spear in a fit of rage.
In the face of life-threatening danger, his adjutant had completed the task with flying colors.
It had not even been two seconds!
Zarukhar answered the call when he saw his adjutant gesturing to him that everything was OK.
"You liar!"
As soon as the call went through, Zarukhar's growl reached Kieran's ears.
"What are you talking about, Mr. Major?"
Kieran asked, playing dumb as he ran.
"You damn liar, do you think you can get away with this?"
Zarukhar's voice was cold and murderous.
"Do you still want your jewels, Mr. Major?"
Kieran replied leisurely with a hint of playfulness in his voice.
