Capítulo 3226: Chapter 3218: Soone Is Coming
Lin Yi left, and Luo Qi dismantled the broken wooden bed before setting it on fire.
Despite her worries, Lin Yi had arranged for this before he left, so this belief made her feel it was okay to proceed.
The piercing snowstorm blew in through the gaps in the wooden hut.
Luo Qi lit the dismantled wooden bed.
Soon, the temperature inside the house rose slightly, and Luo Qi felt a bit of warmth while keeping an eye on the situation outside.
The surroundings were filled with towering trees, and everywhere she looked, it was the sa environnt.
Standing in place, Luo Qi pondered silently.
The people from the Blood Bull Club already knew that Lin Bro and she had escaped here.
They would definitely send people imdiately to surround this place, and there might even be helicopters patrolling above.
Under such circumstances, trying to escape was not an easy task.
At the sa ti, she was also curious about what Lin Yi was planning to do.
What kind of thod could support the two of them to return the sa way?
Unbeknownst to her, Luo Qi felt her body was no longer that cold, and she casually checked the ti, finding that 18 minutes had passed since Lin Yi left.
Seeing that it was almost ti, Luo Qi no longer indulged in that brief warmth.
She stomped out the bonfire, brought in so snow from outside, and completely extinguished the embers.
It was precisely at this mont that Lin Yi returned.
But Lin Yi did not return empty-handed; he brought sothing with him.
It was a grid made of branches, with black cloth strips connecting the joints, made by tearing up his clothes and wrapping them around it.
“Lin Bro, what’s this?”
“It’ll co in handy later.”
With a simple explanation, Lin Yi took off his own jacket and put it over Luo Qi.
She was stunned, not knowing what Lin Yi intended to do.
“Lin Bro? What are you doing?”
“Don’t ask so much, just co out with .”
“But you’re wearing too little.”
“It’s fine.”
Not giving Luo Qi a chance to argue, Lin Yi pulled her out of the wooden hut and went to the shaded side of the house.
Being at the windward position, the fierce north wind was whistling, blowing the snow into a pile like a slide, almost burying the house.
Lin Yi moved quickly, digging a large hole in the direction of the wind.
“Get in.”
“Huh?”
“We’ll hide here for a while.”
Hearing Lin Yi’s words, Luo Qi understood what he ant, as well as why he gave her the down jacket.
“It’s uncertain when the pursuers will arrive, we have to keep hiding here, so you need to keep the clothes on.
“No, if we wear the cotton coat, the target will beco larger, making it harder for us to hide, hurry and get in.”
“But…”
“No buts, that’s an order.”
“Got it.” Luo Qi said reluctantly and then crawled into the snow cave dug by Lin Yi.
After getting in, Luo Qi also cleared out so of the snow inside to make room for Lin Yi.
anwhile, Lin Yi wasn’t idle; he took the wooden grid and went elsewhere to shovel a layer of about ten centiters of snow and brought it back.
Luo Qi moved quickly and cleared the space in less than a minute.
Lin Yi used the pre-prepared branches to smooth out their footprints from the surroundings bit by bit.
Even though there were so traces left, they weren’t very obvious.
With the wind and snow blowing a bit more, they would be even less noticeable.
Once everything was ready, Lin Yi crawled into the snow cave.
He picked up the snow-covered grid of wooden slats and blocked the entrance with it.
However, this operation was terribly rough, and anyone who wasn’t blind would notice sothing was amiss.
But all this was part of Lin Yi’s calculations.
The snow outside was heavy, and the shaded side was soon covered with a layer of snowflakes.
The rough traces beca less and less noticeable.
If one didn’t look carefully, it would be hard to find any abnormality here.
“Lin Bro, can you hold on?”
“Don’t worry, it’s fine.”
At this mont, Luo Qi couldn’t possibly take off the clothes anymore. Surrounded by snow, even a slight movent could cause a collapse, making their efforts futile.
Hiding here, both remained still, not even daring to check the ti, keeping their breathing as calm as possible.
“There seem to be footprints here.”
Unknown how much ti had passed when shouting ca from outside, tensing both their nerves.
“All units on alert, they might be hiding in the house!”
Soone exclaid, followed by the sound of loading safety.
Hidden in the snow cave, the two had no idea what was happening outside.
All they could do was wait.
anwhile, four pursuers with weapons moved toward the house.
Bam, bam, bam—
A series of gunshots were fired at the wooden door, shattering the old door instantly.
“There’s no one here.”
The group rushed in, noticing the fire pit on the ground, and touched it, feeling a slight warmth.
“They must have stayed here,” said a man wearing a leather hat.
“Captain, there are footprints here!”
One of the subordinates said:
“I guess they ward themselves here and then ran off.”
“Truly worthy of being the rit Team Leader of the Central Guards Brigade, daring to warm themselves at such a critical ti!”
The man with the leather hat said, “Let’s follow the footprints and continue the chase, we’ll definitely find them!”
“Yes!”
The group responded, following Lin Yi’s departing footprints into the distance.
They wouldn’t have guessed that Lin Yi’s boldness was beyond their imagination!
Not only did he warm himself here but also hid right under their noses!
Gradually, the surroundings quieted down.
Lin Yi gently tapped the cave wall with his finger, looked outside, and seeing nothing, pushed aside the snowbank in front of him.
“Damn, they finally left. Any longer and I’d end up with such cold I couldn’t have kids.”
As she complained, Luo Qi removed her cotton coat and draped it over Lin Yi.
All in all, the two of them hid here for over forty minutes.
Staying still in the snow was completely different from fleeing.
One was tiring, the other was cold.
If not for their extraordinary physical condition, they would have frozen to death in temperatures approaching minus 50 degrees in just a few minutes.
“Quick, let’s go, not a second to waste.”
Luo Qi nodded, preparing to leave the way they ca with Lin Yi.
But after running a few ters, Lin Yi suddenly stopped, his expression tight as a taut string.
His hand reached to his lower back and drew out a dagger imdiately, with a severe expression, eyes as sharp as an eagle’s.
Filled with murderous intent!
Luo Qi was frightened by Lin Yi’s gaze.
“Lin Bro, what’s wrong?”
“Soone’s coming.”
