Chapter 738: Seizing the Island (Part 2)
After handling all this, Cheng Ling walked to Angel with the submachine gun on her back.
She bent down and put down his awkwardly crossed legs, then pulled him up from the ground by the rope buckle on the back of Angel's vest.
"Let's go." Cheng Ling said, gently pushing Angel's back and letting him walk in front of her.
Angel was quite cooperative, without Cheng Ling urging him or pushing him hard, the two walked up the mountain together.
When they reached a bend, Cheng Ling suddenly gently pulled Angel's vest.
Angel stopped.
What happened?
Angel listened attentively, but he heard nothing -
He saw Cheng Ling crouching, tiptoeing, holding the dagger in reverse, passing Angel, and walking quickly forward. Just outside the bend of the road, she suddenly exerted her strength, like a cheetah pouncing on its prey, and rushed over.
Silence.
Angel stood still.
The next moment, Cheng Ling walked back with the dagger swinging.
Seeing Angel standing there obediently, he nodded with satisfaction.
"Let's go."
Angel then stepped forward--
When he reached the corner, Angel saw a motionless mercenary lying under a tree, obviously dead.
Cheng Ling remembered the mountain road very well, and had sharp ears and eyes. After quietly killing three mercenaries, the two came to the top of the mountain.
After getting rid of the last mercenary at the exit of the garden, Cheng Ling shook his arms.
--Angel didn't like mercenaries to appear in his house, which meant that now there was only Aurelie, the black and strong female chef, in the small western-style building.
At this time, the roar of the engine came from the horizon.
Cheng Ling was very familiar with this sound--it was the sound of the American military helicopter--Nathaniel and the others had contacted the Masons, and obviously, the Masons also responded to their request for support.
They came so fast--
Angel and Cheng Ling looked at the distant sky together, and the helicopter was as small as a black fly.
It must be the people from the Masons, coming to save me, right?
Angel thought.
Cheng Ling couldn't possibly escape - what would they do to Cheng Ling?
Angel's eyes drifted downwards, the wound on Cheng Ling's foot was still bleeding - there was a medicine box in the house.
How to remind her - Angel looked up at the small western-style building, at this moment, he saw a black gun, sticking out from a window on the second floor, aiming at Cheng Ling's back -
It was Aurelie! She held the gun and tried to aim at Cheng Ling - and Cheng Ling was still looking into the distance!
Be careful!
Angel's mouth was stuffed with something, and he could only make a "woohoo" sound, drowned in the roar of the helicopter.
The next moment, Aurelie pulled the trigger -
Angel's two arms were bound, he couldn't push Cheng Ling away, he could only use his body to knock her away -
However, he knocked into nothingness.
Cheng Ling knew that Aurelie was in the house, especially when the helicopter sounded, she would notice herself with a gun on her back and Angel with her mouth gagged and arms tied.
If she went to the house to search for Aurelie, it would be a waste of time.
So Cheng Ling deliberately gave Aurelie a flaw, hoping that she would take the initiative to show up and attack her and then take a bullet -
She kept an eye on the direction of the western-style building, so when Aurelie's figure appeared at the window, she was ready to dodge.
However, she didn't pay any attention to Angel.
"Bang -"
The gunshot sounded.
Cheng Ling dodged sideways, and at the same time raised her hand to the direction of the gunshot and fired a bullet -
The bullet whizzed through the window and hit Aurelie's left eye fiercely. After shattering the eyeball, it continued to rotate and impact unhindered until it penetrated her skull. The bullet lost its power and fell to the ground.
Aurelie went to hell without a groan.
It was not until she dodged to the side and pulled the trigger that Cheng Ling saw Angel rushing over from behind.
Cheng Ling was stunned.
Angel missed and fell heavily to the ground.
Then, Cheng Ling noticed that a large pool of blood suddenly oozed out of his back.
Cheng Ling immediately understood that he had found Aurelie and tried to save herself.
This was something she had never expected.
Cheng Ling bent down, carefully turned him over, tore off the field vest that bound him, tore open his shirt, and checked his wound.
—— It was a fatal wound.
The bullet pierced his lungs... and a small piece of his heart.
The sound of the helicopter was getting closer and closer.
Cheng Ling immediately bent down, carefully carried Angel horizontally into the small western-style building, laid him flat on the ground, and then pulled the cloth out of his mouth.
There was a lot of blood on the cloth - his lungs and trachea were full of blood.
Angel gasped hard, and large mouthfuls of blood flowed out of his mouth.
Cheng Ling lifted his head and put it on her legs, which could ease the pain of coughing up blood from the bullet in the lungs and give him as much air as possible.
Cheng Ling looked into Angel's eyes.
"Your hypnotic state has been lifted," Cheng Ling wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth for him, "Why did you save me?"
"Cough--Huff--" Angel spat out the blood in his mouth with difficulty, took two quick breaths, and said with great difficulty: "Because, I still like you very much. Cough, I want to be a good friend with you, the kind of friend, the kind of love..."
At this moment, Angel's eyes were unusually bright and clear.
"... If, if you, you knew me before I, I, became a demon... You, cough cough, would you save me?"
"I will," Cheng Ling said very seriously, "Angel, I will. I will do my best to prevent those terrible things from happening to you."
Angel knew that Cheng Ling would lend a helping hand to any innocent person.
But he was already very satisfied.
He could feel the life in his body slipping away quickly.
He squeezed out the last bit of vitality and said to her:
"Cheng, Cheng Ling, the best, the best thing in my life is meeting you..."
A short but brilliant smile bloomed on Angel's lips.
Then his chest rose and fell violently, and large mouthfuls of blood gushed out of his mouth - like a blooming blood-red rose, beautiful, heroic and sad, and fleeting.
The next moment, the terrible choking-like gasping sound disappeared.
Angel's head drooped weakly.
