"Where did you find it?!!" He Chen Guang reacted unusually excited, grabbing Liu Xiaotian's arm in one motion, his eyes at least noticeably larger than usual.

Liu Xiaotian pointed at a tree not far away:

"Found on that tree trunk, it should be one of the bullets from when I and Wang Yanbing were attacked earlier—what's wrong?"

As someone who understands this world, knows the plot's direction, and even every detail, Liu Xiaotian is truly bewildered now.

When I watched the TV drama before, this plot didn't exist.

It's just a deformed bullet—why is He Chen Guang so agitated?

He certainly wouldn't know that He Chen Guang's reaction is because he has seen an identical bullet before.

And that bullet was found inside his father's body.

Because He Weidong was prone when shot, the bullet entered from the top of his head, penetrated most of his body, and finally lodged between the fragments of his broken thigh bone.

That bullet is more severe than the deformed one Liu Xiaotian found.

Perhaps because he was overly excited, or maybe because Liu Xiaotian left a good impression during the sparring assessment the day before, after Liu Xiaotian's question, He Chen Guang immediately raised his hand and pulled off a red cord from his neck, with a bullet attached to it.

Although the deformation is more severe, it's not hard to see that the bullet is the same as the one Liu Xiaotian found.

Even on the bullet's tail, someone deliberately carved a small pattern.

From its appearance, one can faintly see that it's a—scorpion!

Without any hesitation, He Chen Guang immediately pressed the communicator, speaking in an excited tone:

"Report to Chief of Staff! I'm returning in spirit, I'll find the shooter!"

Fan Tianlei, who had already prepared to return, was taken aback, then sternly replied: "No! He Chen Guang, follow orders and return according to the original plan!"

"Chief of Staff, Liu Xiaotian just found a bullet on a tree, and someone carved a pattern on it!" He Chen Guang said, word by word.

"What pattern?!!" Fan Tianlei asked, though he already had a guess in his mind.

But he didn't want to believe his own guess.

"That pattern is exactly the same as the bullet found in my father's body!" He Chen Guang said, almost gritting his teeth.

Fan Tianlei fell silent.

This is the result he least wanted to see.

Xiezi, this name that has loomed over his heart for ten years, this huge shadow, has unexpectedly appeared again so abruptly.

And he cannot be sure whether he has already prepared himself.

Ten years ago, in that confrontation, he and Xiezi aimed at each other simultaneously.

But at that moment, he felt fear.

For ten years, that scene often appears in his dreams—the gloomy gaze of those eyes, as if etched into his memory, impossible to dispel.

Now he has actually come again! After a moment, Fan Tianlei took a deep breath and said again: "He Chen Guang, you four return immediately according to the plan; I'll handle this side."

"But..." He Chen Guang still wanted to argue.

"No buts, obey the order!" Fan Tianlei's tone allowed no doubt.

In fact, He Chen Guang himself knows that with his current ability, even if the opponent is the enemy who killed his father, he basically has no chance to take revenge.

He might even lose his own life.

Facing his father's killer, and being a soldier himself, He Chen Guang is not afraid of death.

But if father and son both die at the hands of the same person, he would leave this world full of regret.

At this moment, he heard his own inner voice.

He wants to become stronger, urgently hoping to become stronger!

Even though he is now an outstanding among the 1,700-plus soldiers of the Iron Fist Group, it's still not enough! But now he must endure, and can only endure. Two hours later, in the office of He Zhijun of the Wolf Fang Special Forces Brigade.

"It's Xiezi, definitely him!" Fan Tianlei said, his face unusually grim.

That bullet, together with He Chen Guang's, was brought back by Fan Tianlei along with the recovered bullets.

Along the way, his eyes never left those two bullets.

That is hatred, and also shame.

In Fan Tianlei's heart, if he cannot personally kill Xiezi in a day, this matter will weigh on him like a huge stone pressing down.

He Zhijun looked at the two bullets on the table, remaining silent for a long time.

He naturally could see that the pattern carved on those two bullets definitely came from one hand.

Moreover, the size and caliber of the two bullets are completely identical.

As for whether they came from the same gun, that requires technical room appraisal to know.

But there's really no need for appraisal.

Ten years have passed; Xiezi might not even still use the same gun.

But the pattern carved on these bullets must have been made by his own hand.

I didn't expect this guy to show up again.

"Old Fan, don't rush, I'll immediately try to confirm Xiezi's whereabouts." He Zhijun said with a light sigh.

Fan Tianlei slowly shook his head:

"Not necessary; frequent contact could likely lead to exposure, not worth it; these two bullets already sufficiently explain the matter—the one who came is Xiezi.

Moreover, this isn't his fault; over there, transmitting information isn't always possible, so such a situation is normal.

According to my observation, Xiezi's arrival this time doesn't seem to be with a target; I've already warned the border defense to watch that area, Xiezi definitely won't cross the border."

As an old rival, Fan Tianlei's understanding of Xiezi is quite deep, even not much less than Xiezi himself.

If Xiezi came this time with a mission, he would certainly not act rashly against Liu Xiaotian and Wang Yanbing at the border.

Obviously, this is an accident, a spur-of-the-moment decision.

The purpose is likely to strike at him, to show off to the Wolf Fang.

He Zhijun nodded.

"Also fine, anyway based on our gathered situation, the polar bear side there is also not calm, he probably doesn't have energy to come here to cause trouble."

"Just as you said, this time, it's probably just a coincidence."

"However, we also must raise vigilance; I will arrange this matter, you hurry to handle the organization of the Red Blood Cell Group, the sooner the better."

"Fan Tianlei heaved a deep sigh:"

"I know, after returning this time, I immediately arranged Chen Shanming to start training them."

"Although the Red Blood Cell Group each person has different division of labor, but marksmanship must be ensured to reach the highest standard for each person."

"Their future mission will be very dangerous, facing are desperados."

"If they lack self-defense ability, even if other domain abilities are strong, it's futile!"

"Regarding this, the two people had already reached consensus when they initially planned to organize the Red Blood Cell Group, naturally there is no objection."

"However, the young soldiers currently hurrying back do not know, what kind of instructor is waiting to greet them."

"And they, in the coming period, will not even have the energy to shout tired……"
