Chapter 268 - 267 Counter Ambush
Yang Yi pulled open the car door, then leaped out first, rolling twice on the ground before quickly getting up, bending over, and dashing a few steps to take cover behind some bushes.
The helicopter was getting closer, but it had no searchlights, and it was unknown whether it had night vision gear or not. If it didn’t, they wouldn’t be able to see him getting out of the car.
Yang Yi hid behind the bushes, while Xiao Ran did not roll. Zhang Yong slowed the car down a lot, and Xiao Ran ran a few steps with her gun before deliberately lying down on the ground.
The desert was very cold in the early morning.
Unable to suppress a shiver, Yang Yi saw Xiao Ran also take cover behind some bushes, so he sprinted to her side.
Xiao Ran mounted the thermal imaging night vision device on the scope, powered it on for a test, and whispered, "Everything’s working."
"Lucky you’re so well-prepared."
Yang Yi truly meant what he said.
Yang Yi relied on nothing but a knife when he left the house, but now that wasn’t of any use at all, whereas Xiao Ran brought many odds and ends and had to carry a big bag during their escape. Not long ago, Yang Yi still thought carrying a big bag all the time was cumbersome, but now, these miscellaneous accessories had come into play.
Xiao Ran placed her gun on the ground, but she didn’t lie down. Instead, she used a compact binocular to peer at the lit helicopter for a moment before saying in a low voice, "I can’t see anything clearly, I don’t know what kind of helicopter it is."
After putting down the binoculars, Xiao Ran turned to Yang Yi, "What are you doing next to me? Waiting for someone to mow us down together? Get out of here and keep an eye on our surroundings. If you spot anything unusual, just yell. They can’t hear us in such an open space."
