Chapter 222 - Ambush
While they were joking among themselves, a gunshot changed everything. The young nurses screamed in fear. Mo Li glanced at the time. Why would these terrorist choose 3.30 pm to make their ambush? This is highly unusual! But even so, why are they targeting this small border station? There's not much to be pillaged here.
Mo Li wasn't given time to analyze. After hearing the gunshot, Qin Xuan and the other male doctor ran to protect Mo Li and the other nurses. Before they could say anything, there was another gunshot.
"Have these people lost their minds?" Qin Xuan breathed out in disbelief. He didn't expect that they'd be ambushed in broad daylight.
Mo Li lifted her head and looked outside. Not far away, there was a ship.. It looked like it was big enough to accommodate 7 to 8 people. The ship wasn't there earlier. We have just arrived and this happens... Mo Li had a bad feeling. These people are not here to pillage the border station but their aim has to be our medical tools! Perhaps someone on their ship needs medical attention.
As they escaped from the dorm, the window of the dorm shattered. Everyone's heart jumped. One of the nurses started to cry but she was quickly shushed by the male doctor. "Do you want them to discover us?" The doctor whispered, afraid of being hurt.
As Mo Li predicted, these people were after the medical supply Mo Li's team had just brought to the border station.
...
"These motherfuckers, where do they even get KW09 laser guns with silencer. The two of you, go to the dorm and protect the doctors." Team leader Gao cursed. Then he darted about to avoid the laser shots. Leader Gao was also confused that the terrorists had chosen such a strange timing to attack. Furthermore, he noticed that only 4 criminals had come out to attack them, that was clearly not enough to take down the border station. Plus, Leader Gao knew that the ship should harbor more criminals than that. So it quickly hit Leader Gao that this was just a distraction. The 4 attackers were buying time for the other criminals who went to search for the doctors and nurses.
...
On the other hand, Mo Li and her team went into the bathroom to hide. They listened to the noises outside the door. The person who broke the window had jumped into the dorm. There were sounds of things breaking. He was looking for something. Soon another male voice could be heard from the dorm. He sounded annoyed that it had taken so long for the other person to find the things they needed. They spoke in a language that the doctors couldn't understand, but the duo sounded agitated.
Soon, the doctors heard the sound of footsteps. "Stop hiding! I know you're here!" A man with a scar on his face shouted loudly. He knocked the butt of his gun against the wall.
The 3 nurses couldn't stop crying. They prayed that they wouldn't be found.
Mo Li realized her prediction was wrong. These people were not only looking for medical supply, they also planned to kidnap a doctor. This meant that there was someone important on the ship that needed to be saved and none of the terrorist had medical knowledge. It was why they needed both the medical supply and the doctor. However, Mo Li also knew that these criminals wouldn't let the doctor live after they had exhausted their use. So being kidnapped equaled death.
Mo Li and her team moved to hide in the cubicle. Soon they heard a man open the toilet door. Mo Li and Qin Xuan shared a look and they gripped their scalpels tightly.
The criminal kicked down the cubicle door one by one. Qin Xuan and Mo Li were hiding in the second to last cubicle. They would be discovered before the others. Instead of submitting to the criminal, Mo Li and Qin Xuan decided to take a chance!
The two shared a look. When they felt that the criminal had stopped outside their door, they pushed the door open. Qin Xuan used all of his energy to kick at the man's chest. Mo Li followed it up with a pepper spray to the criminal's face. The man who wanted to call for his companion was overwhelmed by the ambush.
Mo Li stuffed a piece of cloth down the man's mouth to prevent him from coughing. The man's respiratory tract would be on fire. They had to stop the man from calling reinforcement!
