Chapter 134 - 124: Quite Ordinary
Everyone looked down on Wind Vane, but Gao Yi was different. He regarded Wind Vane with appreciation, so his attitude towards Wind Vane wasn’t as harsh.
Everyone knew that Wind Vane wasn’t trusted, fearful and quick to flee at the first sign of trouble. Such characteristics indeed made him unsuitable for the battlefield and untrustworthy.
However, from another viewpoint, Wind Vane was quite suitable for the assassin’s profession.
Being an assassin didn’t involve fighting wars; one just needed to make a shot and hit the target with the first bullet, then could turn and run, unlike having to stay on the battlefield, waiting to be swept by machine guns or bombarded with shells.
Therefore, Gao Yi didn’t show any disdain towards Wind Vane. On the contrary, he respected him quite a bit.
In Gao Yi’s eyes, every sniper deserved respect. It couldn’t be helped; snipers were the "moonlight" of his heart.
Peter and his team had already started their forceful entry, while Wind Vane, armed with an AX50 sniper rifle, had positioned himself atop the highest building nearby in advance.
Just like those police and criminal films, two snipers were always arranged before an operation.
Wind Vane placed his sniper rifle on the ground and started observing through a telescope. One could say he might run at the first sign of danger, but this pre-combat relaxation actually reflected the demeanor of a true expert.
Judging the distance was sufficient; no need to measure wind speed because the distance was only about 200 meters. At this range, the bullet would maintain its trajectory, and even strong winds wouldn’t have much of an effect.
