Trickster Hunter.

Chapter 53 The Third Day

Sun Hang walked out of the tower and looked up at the sky - under the escort of two fighter jets on the left and right, the special plane of the parliamentary representatives slowly landed on the runway of the base.

"Don't you think that girl is cute?" Wang Xiyi's voice came from behind.

"Silly but cute?" Sun Hang turned his head and asked.

"She is very silly and naive...but she has the courage and drive that many people don't have. She is decisive and clear-minded. In addition, she has a background and starting point that ordinary people can't dream of...If she can sit in her father's position in the future, maybe she can really change some things." Wang Xiyi said.

"You think highly of her!" The plane made a huge noise as it taxied on the runway, and Sun Hang had to raise his voice by many decibels.

"I am a lazy person who just wants to eat and wait for death, but this does not prevent me from paying respect to idealists like her." Wang Xiyi said lightly, "It's a pity that I don't have much time left. It is likely that I will not be able to see what she looks like after she grows up."

"Don't be so pessimistic. She might die before you." Sun Hang smiled. "Idealists don't usually live long, especially those as reckless as her."

"What she wants to do is to eliminate all the weird things in this world. What about you?" Wang Xiyi looked at Sun Hang, "What do you want to do?"

"Hiss... your question really got me thinking." Sun Hang looked at the vehicles and people coming and going in the base and thought for a while, "What I want to do now... probably is to recover my lost memories. Apart from that, I probably just want to stay alive."

"Then why do you want to be a hunter? Hunters don't live long either." Wang Xiyi asked again.

"Maybe he thinks that being a hunter will help him regain his memory faster..." Sun Hang thought for a moment and repeated what Ye Xuan had just said. "If you insist on asking me why, it's intuition."

……

The soldiers at the air force base pulled out more than a dozen tent-style barracks for field training from the warehouse and set them up on the open playground... However, when they counted the number of people, new problems arose.

There were a total of 213 missing persons. Excluding the 27 people who left the cemetery area and failed to return, there should be 186 people left. However, the soldier in charge of counting the number of people counted several times. Even if the parliamentary representatives who had just got off the special plane were included, there were only 184 people.

Two people are missing.

"List! Ask the management committee to send us the list of missing persons that they collected previously, and check them one by one!" Sun Hang rubbed his temples irritably. "Once we find out who is missing, go and tie them up for me immediately!"

"We?" The soldier who was counting the number of people was stunned for a moment. "Shouldn't we notify the Management Committee? At the very least, the Public Security Bureau should be responsible, right? If the army goes directly to arrest people..."

"I don't trust those good-for-nothings to handle this kind of thing. I don't want anything to go wrong again!" Sun Hang turned around and said to Yang Lian, "Also, notify the Investigation Bureau and have them gather all the remaining people to take over the beacon placement... Remember, no one is allowed to enter the South City Cemetery, and try to keep a safe distance of more than three kilometers from the border of the abnormal area!"

After a while, a soldier came running over and said to Sun Hang, "We have found out that the two missing people are the two children of Ding Yuanjiang, a member of the Management Committee... The two children were frightened in the previous incident and have a high fever. The children's grandparents blocked the door and refused to let the people from the Management Committee in... The two elderly people are almost seventy years old, and the people from the Committee did not dare to take compulsory measures, for fear of..."

"Can't we use tranquilizer bullets?" Yang Lian frowned.

"Anesthesia bullets are too dangerous for the elderly. One shot may make them never wake up again." Another staff member of the management committee responsible for coordinating matters added.

"Let the military doctor drive the ambulance to pick them up. As for the old man blocking the door..." Sun Hang said, "If they continue to block the door or resort to violence, the soldiers are allowed to fight back." "Fight back?" The staff of the Management Committee widened their eyes. "Those are two elderly people in their sixties. Doing this could cost lives!"

"Obstructing military operations and attacking active military personnel are serious crimes. It is not unfair to die for them." Sun Hang said expressionlessly, "Even the commander of the air force base has a gun pointed at his head. Do you still care about two stubborn old men?"

Sun Hang paused, and then continued: "If the time-space anomaly area appears inside the community...how many elderly people and children do you think will be involved, and how many of these people will be able to come back alive?"

"Then if the space-time anomaly did not appear..."

"If nothing happens, someone will naturally take responsibility!" Sun Hang looked up at the command tower high up, "You don't have to take this responsibility, so why are you wasting time?"

"This... this..." The staff of the Management Committee was still wiping the sweat from his forehead, while the soldier next to him had already received the order and ran to find a military doctor and an ambulance.

……

after an hour.

"The headcount is complete. The expected number of people is 186, and the actual number of people is 188." The soldier in charge of counting the people ran over and reported.

"Why are there two more?" Yang Lian asked after a moment of surprise.

"Even if the grandparents of those two children insist on coming here, there is nothing we can do..." the soldier said with difficulty.

"It's okay, just let them stay together." Sun Hang waved his hand and looked at the time displayed on the bracelet. "Okay, everything is ready, only the east wind is missing."

"Will the 'easterly wind' that will blow in three days really come?" Wang Xiyi sat on a box of shells, crossing her legs. "If nothing happens, it will be a lot of fun."

"From the perspective of the Federation, it would be best if nothing happened," Sun Hang said. "But I have a habit. For anything, as long as there is a worst-case scenario, I will be prepared to face it."

"It's a good habit." Wang Xiyi nodded in approval.

……

Three days is neither short nor long.

When the time on the bracelet jumped from 23:59 on May 00th to 00: on May th, Sun Hang could clearly feel that the air in the entire air force base had suddenly become much more stagnant.

Everyone's face had a look of being faced with a great enemy. The only sounds that could be heard in the huge base were footsteps and car engines. The pale searchlights shone on the playground, illuminating the location of the temporary barracks as if it were daytime.

"There are still five hours until dawn." Sun Hang said.
