Chapter 193: The wooden beauty of Young Master Sheng
Chapter 193: Hidden Warehouse
"Ah Si!"
"Brother Ah Si!"
Jiang Chenchen hid on the hospital rooftop, shouting down below, with a few people holding guns to cover her.
The building was only three stories high, and those attempting to attack from below were finding ways to climb through the windows. People inside the hospital resisted fiercely.
The sound of gunfire intermittently echoed in the dark night.
There was no response from below because her shout had attracted a sniper hidden in the trees on the opposite side, taking a shot towards her direction.
"Be careful!"
Jiang Chenchen had already lowered herself beneath the railing, the bullet grazing past her head. The people beside her looked alarmed, ready to protect her and guide her off the rooftop. Zhan Chen had warned that if there was no response, they should abandon further confirmation.
Just moments ago, Jiang Chenchen had shouted Mr. Sheng's name loudly, but received no response. If Sheng Mingsi was among those below, he wouldn't have stayed silent. This meant that Sheng Mingsi was not involved.
However, she could roughly confirm the position of the sniper on the opposite side. It seemed they had ambushed several snipers for long-range shooting. If they didn't eliminate this threat, people engaging in close combat near the windows were at risk of being targeted and shot in the head.
"How far is the effective range of your guns?"
Scarface, perplexed by her question, asked, "What?"
"Why are you asking this question here when you should be getting off the rooftop?" he thought, though he replied quickly, "Around 50 meters!"
Jiang Chenchen estimated the distance, thinking it was a bit far. Shooting would be a waste of bullets, and she said, "Let's go, get down... Be careful!"
She glanced and saw someone climbing onto the rooftop through the window. It was an enemy, holding a gun and aiming at Scarface.
While warning Scarface, Jiang Chenchen took the pistol from him, kicked Scarface aside, and shot a bullet at the infiltrator.
Scarface, quick to react, rolled on the ground, reaching for his gun, only to realize it wasn't there!
Jiang Chenchen swiftly took aim with the loaded pistol and fired a shot at the person who had climbed onto the rooftop. The gun was already cocked; pulling the trigger was all it took.
Jiang Chenchen had learned how to use a gun from Zhan Chen himself. He even taught her various shooting techniques unconsciously. Now, the muscle memory was ingrained; she could pick up a gun and use it skillfully.
Moonlight illuminated the rooftop, casting shadows and revealing vague movements and sounds. The infiltrators were on the alert, having fired a shot, but their position was exposed.
Jiang Chenchen's shot didn't hit the person who climbed onto the rooftop. In their evasion, the commotion attracted attention. Adjusting their movements, they fired two more shots.
These actions were taken quickly and precisely, a fortunate coincidence in a moment of crisis.
The infiltrator, hit twice in the arm, fell from the corner of the rooftop.
The sniper on the opposite side still couldn't find a clear target, even during the chaos. Any slight panic or movement could expose them, making them an easy target for a headshot.
After Scarface's recent experience, he had a new appreciation for Jiang Chenchen. She was not an ordinary girl, showing skills comparable to theirs.
They moved from the rooftop to the door and locked it. Breaking through the reinforced iron door to enter would not be easy in the short term.
This path was temporarily blocked.
They quickly descended, and Zhan Chen was waiting below. He had been paying attention to the outside movements since Jiang Chenchen shouted, without responding. This confirmed that Sheng Mingsi was not outside.
As for whether Sheng Mingsi was involved in this operation or had been betrayed by Imon's people, it couldn't be determined for now.
However, this time, Zhan Chen was certain that there was a traitor among them.
And the traitor had been identified.
Exposed in their current position, with the enemy carrying a large number of weapons, they became a besieged force.
Various defenses were rapidly breached in a short period. Time was of the essence, and Jiang Chenchen couldn't be risked in the chaos. She might not be able to protect herself, putting her at risk of harm.
Zhan Chen gestured for her to come over, his expression serious. "Chenchen, listen to me. The situation here is too dangerous and complicated. Hide in the morgue here. The door locks from the inside, and they can't get in or blow it open from the outside. Don't come out unless I tell you."
The enemy seemed to be breaking through quickly, and the defenders inside had already put up a strong resistance for quite some time. It seemed they wouldn't last much longer.
Jiang Chenchen quickly recalled the dream she had not long ago and felt that the predictions from her dream might come true.
"How long until your reinforcements arrive?"
"Ten minutes."
"Do you think you can hold on? I'll fight alongside you and protect you."
Jiang Chenchen spoke seriously and resolutely. Zhan Chen felt that just based on these words, he wouldn't die here.
"We're running out of time. Come, let's go down."
She and Zhan Chen's men quickly headed toward the morgue. The private hospital's morgue was located in the basement. They took a separate elevator from the third floor, entering through a secret room with a code known only to Zhan Chen.
This morgue was different from the publicly accessible one; it was a privately set up morgue with a large area.
It had air conditioning, but it was turned off after she entered.
"Listen, don't come out, wait until everything calms down. Also, don't open the warehouse door here."
Zhan Chen, sitting in a wheelchair, gave instructions. At the same time, one of his subordinates, Scarface, went in and opened a door, revealing a cache of various weapons—machine guns, grenades, and more.
This was not only a private hospital but also a hidden warehouse.
One of the many illusory warehouses he had set up, and Imon had walked right into it.
"You asked me to hide here, but clearly, you should..."
Jiang Chenchen looked at him, his face pale to the point of turning bluish, and his physical condition seemed really bad. In the midst of such chaos, even standing up seemed difficult for him. How could he cope?
"You underestimate me, Chenchen."
A doctor beside Zhan Chen injected a dose of medicine into his arm. Although the doctor's expression was serious, he followed orders.
"In moments like this, I have to take command."
"Zhan Chen, since you promised to let me go and I won't escape before dawn, let me stay by your side for support. I have decent marksmanship, and that Scarface guy saw it."
Scarface: ...
Under Zhan Chen's gaze, he hunched over, holding his weapon.
This "brother" nearly brought disaster upon himself!
