"Hello, did your return go smoothly?"
The call connected.
Lin Fan inquired about their situation.
"Thanks for your concern, all went well, we didn't encounter any troubles," Eagle responded, the only incident was Yanzi's deception. The knife hidden behind his back hadn't killed anyone, but today it had already broken that rule. It was an unavoidable act, maybe some would say, 'You're a soldier, you should be protecting your compatriots. Even if you do something wrong, you can't just kill.'
But for Eagle.
Special circumstances called for special measures. There were no excuses.
Even he later felt that he hadn't killed the wrong person.
The house belonged to an elderly couple. When they arrived there, the couple had taken them in, only to be brutally killed by them. What he had done was, in his mind, removing a menace to the people.
Lin Fan asked, "When will you arrive at the base?"
"If all goes smoothly, tomorrow," he replied.
