Only after hearing no more movement behind him did Lin Shi lean against a large tree to catch his breath.
After an underwater battle and swimming several kilometers to the island with Shen Jinbin, Lin Shi's physical strength was nearly depleted.
At this moment, his hands and feet trembled involuntarily, a sign of exhaustion.
Had it not been for the three months of training, he wouldn't have had the strength to escape.
But all of this was worth it; he had discovered the truth behind his father's death and avenged his father's killer!
With fatal injuries, abdominal penetration, decompression sickness, and wound infection, he couldn't believe Shen Jinbin could still be alive under those circumstances.
However, the fact that the Shen family's bodyguards were equipped with such heavy firepower was unexpected.
Lin Shi had always thought he hadn't underestimated the Shen family's power, but he had still underestimated them.
In a peaceful society, they could equip their bodyguards with such heavy firepower.
These bodyguards couldn't be ordinary veterans either.
No wonder the Shen family could directly control the entire Hai City in the extreme cold apocalypse!
After confirming that no one was pursuing him for the time being, Lin Shi found a concealed ravine.
He took out bandages, disinfectant, hemostatic spray, and a dagger from his space.
After disinfecting the dagger with disinfectant, Lin Shi gritted his teeth and dug out the bullet from his left arm, sprayed it with hemostatic spray, and bandaged the wound.
After doing all this, Lin Shi was drenched in sweat.
In his previous life, he had suffered more severe injuries in the apocalypse, and he had survived without any medicine; this was nothing compared to that.
He swallowed two anti-inflammatory pills and simply treated the wounds he had just scratched with branches.
Lin Shi changed into a clean set of clothes from his space, took out water and luncheon meat cans to replenish his physical strength.
After such a long time, no one had pursued him.
Either those bodyguards had already left with Shen Jinbin's body, or they were waiting somewhere to ambush him.
After resting for a while, Lin Shi continued to walk deeper into the dense forest.
Half an hour later, standing at the highest point of the small island, Lin Shi overlooked every movement on the island.
Shen Jinbin's yacht had disappeared, and even Shen Jinbin's body was no longer on the beach.
However, on the other side of the island, a lifeboat was dragged into the forest on the beach.
The bright orange color, although partially covered by tree shadows, was still very eye-catching.
Of course, if Lin Shi hadn't been standing at the highest point, he wouldn't have found this lifeboat.
The presence of a lifeboat meant that someone from the previous yacht had stayed behind.
It seemed they were indeed preparing to ambush him.
Originally, Lin Shi had to think about how to return to Sha City.
This uninhabited island was not far from Sha City, but it was impossible to swim there on foot.
Now, this situation suited him perfectly.
As the sun set in the west, the countdown in the upper right corner of the treasure pot was only 17 hours left.
Lin Shi no longer delayed, took out his combat uniform, and put it on neatly and efficiently.
This was a military cold-weather special forces combat uniform that Lin Shi had spent a lot of money to order from Xie Jinxin.
The military cold-weather special forces combat uniform, with a total of sixteen pieces inside and outside, had excellent insulation and waterproof properties, keeping warm without affecting combat.
Naturally, Lin Shi didn't wear all of them in this weather.
Instead, he removed a few pieces of thermal underwear, wore a bulletproof vest under his outer clothes, put on a tactical helmet, and infrared night vision goggles.
He fully armed himself and then waited for nightfall.
The night was the best time to start the killing!
The forest at night was pitch black, swarming with mosquitoes and flies.
Five figures in black crouched behind the bushes at five different locations, waiting for an opportunity to act.
Their exposed necks and hands were covered with mosquito bites, but they still frowned and endured.
Originally, they had come out to play with Shen Jinbin, and bringing guns was already the limit; they had not prepared any other equipment.
The only sniper rifle was hidden at the bottom of the yacht for emergencies.
After all, this is the safest country in the world, not the Middle East where guns are rampant.
They never thought that just a regular dive would lead to a major mistake in their mission!
"Da."
A soft sound made the two bodyguards tense up.
"Da, da, da..."
One bodyguard looked up, and the heavy raindrops fell from the sky onto the surrounding shrub leaves, changing from a da-da sound to a pattering rain sound.
"Number 2, it's raining.
Do we still wait?" one bodyguard whispered into the walkie-talkie.
"Wait! This island is so big, and we only have five people.
We can't find a person hiding in a short time.
If we disperse into the dense forest and face the killer one-on-one, isn't that suicide?
Wait, he will definitely find a way to leave here, and then we'll compete with him in patience.
If we don't solve this person this time, we won't have a good outcome either."
The bodyguards had seen Shen Jinbin's injuries and speculated that Lin Shi had come prepared to assassinate Shen Jinbin, and it was a premeditated killer.
Perfect disguise, ruthless attack, how could an ordinary person do it?
And being able to know their destination in advance and hide things underwater, waiting for an opportunity to act, this is definitely a skill that only professional killers or agents can have.
They absolutely couldn't imagine.
Lin Shi, on the surface, is an ordinary person, but in reality, he is a survivor who has returned from the post-apocalyptic era and has gone through countless crises.
There was no preparation for weapons in advance, but there was a space that could take things out at any time!
However, some of the bodyguards still felt something was wrong:
"I don't think that person is a killer, and didn't Young Master Shen say that this person is his stepmother's son?"
The man called Number 2 was silent for a while before saying,
"Before Lin Shi's information came out, the young master had already investigated, just an ordinary college student.
You tell Mr.
Shen that an ordinary college student somehow took out a crossbow and killed A Biao, injuring Young Master Shen, would he believe it?
Can't we eight people who have been licking blood on the knife edge not even guard against a college student?
It's more logical to say that there is a killer disguised as Lin Shi."
The bodyguards were silent.
...
Lin Shi had already carefully felt his way into the dense forest at the foot of the mountain, and the sudden sound of rain first startled him, then he was pleasantly surprised.
Even the heavens are helping him.
With the dense sound of rain, he could easily cover his footsteps.
And several burly men were clearly visible under the night vision device.
Lin Shi lurked three hundred meters away, flipped his hand and took out a crossbow.
The interception crossbow is powerful, but the sound is not hidden.
The crossbow in Lin Shi's hand is called the crossbow, and the sound of shooting is very small, suitable for close combat, which was newly obtained when he went to pick up the goods last time.
Lin Shi carefully put several crossbow arrows into the quiver and cautiously approached the position where the five people were ambushed.
The sound of the pattering rain hitting the leaves was all around his ears, and Lin Shi tried his best to step on the exposed stones and soil to avoid being noticed.
When approaching within two hundred meters, Lin Shi stopped and was on full alert.
At this distance, if the other party has infrared sensing equipment, they must be able to find themselves.
Lin Shi waited on the spot for a while, and the other party did not respond.
This distance is also within the range of the crossbow's range.
He set up the crossbow, aimed at a figure not blocked by trees,
and shot an arrow!
