Chen Feng got the enemy's walkie-talkie.
Next, the hunt began.
… …
More than two hours later.
With tenacious willpower, Du Lei, along with Lin Zu and Erma, successfully descended the mountain in the direction Chen Feng pointed, and even miraculously appeared at the local garrison's logistics support base.
When they saw Du Lei and the other two appear, the logistics support personnel were stunned.
The support center was in chaos.
One must know, Chen Feng's current identity was extraordinary.
He was not just a small actor; he was also involved in a super epic large-scale scientific research project with a national fund of eight trillion.
Before he came to shoot the promotional video, not only had the Yanjing City Municipal Bureau called.
Even the National Academy of Sciences had given their attention.
Therefore, when Chen Feng was attacked, the entire border garrison exploded.
A several-hundred-strong elite mobile unit had already been dispatched.
Unfortunately, they had not been able to find Chen Feng.
Now, they miraculously saw Du Lei and the other two emerge from the dense forest from a completely unexpected direction and return to the base.
After Lin Zu and Erma were escorted to the infirmary by the logistics support personnel, Du Lei turned and walked away like a zombie.
She still wanted to go back into the dense forest to search for Chen Feng.
The soldiers at the base, of course, could not let her leave again, because they all saw that she was only one belief away from collapsing.
So, Du Lei was forcibly given a sedative injection, and finally passed out.
… …
Who knows how long passed.
Du Lei slowly woke up.
When she woke up, her right shoulder felt like it was tearing apart from the pain.
However, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Pain meant there was still sensation, meaning this arm was not crippled yet.
Where is Chen Feng?
Du Lei trembled all over, suddenly got out of bed, pulled out the IV drip on her body, and staggered out.
As soon as she opened the door, she was blocked.
It was the director of the logistics support department.
His name was Li Fa.
Du Lei looked at Li Fa and said tremblingly, “Where is Chen Feng?”
Li Fa hesitated for a moment, then slowly said, “Still haven't found him.”
Du Lei felt a dizzy spell.
She quickly leaned on the doorframe and said in a hoarse voice, “What about the people who attacked us?”
“All dead.”
“You didn't see his body?”
“Hmm.”
Li Fa frowned and said, “Also, the group of people who attacked you were not killed by us.”
“What?”
Du Lei was startled, looked up at him: “What do you mean?”
“When our main force caught up to them, that group of people had all been killed. The death range affected at least one kilometer in circumference.”
Du Lei: “…”
Her face was full of astonishment.
Li Fa continued, “And from those bodies, it can be seen that some people were killed while trying to escape.”
Du Lei's hands began to tremble.
A crazy thought surfaced in her mind.
Could it be that he did it all?
He alone killed forty to fifty brutal armed militants?
Is he still alive?
Li Fa patted Du Lei's arm: “Comrade Du Lei, rest. Our drones have been searching for his whereabouts. Even if he died, we must find his body.”
Du Lei slowly lowered her head.
A tear overflowed from the corner of her eye, silently sliding to the ground.
… …
A week later.
Chen Feng was nowhere to be found.
No one found his body.
His life or death was unknown.
The border garrison regrettably announced Chen Feng's death and reported it to the military region and Yanjing City.
Half a month later.
Du Lei, along with Lin Zu and Erma, returned to Yanjing City.
Once the news spread, the whole country was in an uproar.
Chen Feng's popularity had already soared, and he had clearly become the most top-tier existence among the new generation of actors.
His acting skills far surpassed those of veteran actors.
His deeds were talked about with great relish.
Who had ever seen an Academician from the National Academy of Sciences collaborate with an actor on a project development?
Even the country acknowledged this actor's contribution.
Approved an eight-trillion super epic project.
But now, he was gone?
For a time, news about Chen Feng was everywhere across the country.
He once again became famous nationwide.
It was just that this method was unacceptable to many people.
Erma fell ill and never recovered.
Lin Zu isolated himself in a mental hospital, staring blankly every day without eating or drinking.
Du Lei, despite her injuries not yet healed, frantically investigated the identity of the attackers, as if she were possessed.
Chen Feng's parents fainted from crying several times at the Municipal Bureau.
Those girls who had a one-night stand with Chen Feng, one by one, locked themselves in their rooms, crying inconsolably, unable to accept this outcome.
Jiang Wen, Lao Mouzi, Xing Ye, Hua Zai, and other big names in the film and television industry all posted expressing their regret.
Thus, Chen Feng became a phenomenal star.
… …
A month later.
Kang Si Tan Group resumed operations.
It was indeed as Du Lei had said.
Backed by the Wallenberg Consortium, Kang Si Tan Group's troubles only lasted for a little over a month before they were resolved.
Du Lei was furious.
She knew in her heart.
Those who attacked them in Yunnan must be inextricably linked to the Wallenberg Consortium.
Because Chen Feng had said that in his entire life, besides Mike Martin of Kang Si Tan Group, he had never had any conflicts or disputes with anyone else.
These white pigs.
Can they really cover the sky with one hand?
Du Lei rushed to the armory, and whispered to the old police officer on duty, “Uncle Yang, give me a gun and two magazines.”
Uncle Yang, the old police officer inside, squinted at her: “The application?”
Du Lei said impatiently, “I'll give it to you later.”
Uncle Yang shook his head and sighed, “Little Du, the director personally said that he won't approve a gun for you. Your current emotions are affecting your work, do you know that?”
Du Lei: “Uncle Yang, please help.”
Uncle Yang shook his head: “Giving you a weapon would be harming you, not helping you.”
Du Lei: “…”
Uncle Yang: “Looking at me is useless. What? Even discipline doesn't matter anymore?”
Du Lei narrowed her eyes and turned to leave.
… …
Half an hour later.
Downstairs at the Kang Si Tan Group building.
Du Lei, sitting in her car, nibbled on bread while staring intently at the building.
Can't catch thieves without a weapon?
At a certain moment.
A figure downstairs at the building suddenly came into view.
Du Lei's whole body trembled.
That figure… why did it look so much like the man she thought about day and night?
The back was exactly the same.
Du Lei widened her eyes, suddenly jumped out of the car, and frantically chased after him.
However, that person walked very fast.
After turning at the intersection, he disappeared.
Du Lei chased frantically, and finding that she had lost him, she couldn't help but stomp her feet repeatedly in frustration, her eyes red, searching frantically in the crowd.
Was it him?
Is he still alive?
Didn't the military already announce his death?
… …
At the same time.
In a black Hongqi sedan around the corner.
Chen Feng silently watched Du Lei, who was running around like a headless chicken at the intersection, and lightly sighed.
Beside him.
A graceful woman with a charming figure softly said, “Not going to see her?”
“Not yet.”
“Alas, what kind of man are you, after all? Do you know? When the news of your death came out, I don't know how many people cried. I heard even Boss Yang cried.”
Chen Feng turned to look at the woman beside him.
“Jiang Pingting, talk less, do more. Drive.”
“Alright.”
Jiang Pingting smiled enchantingly: “Anyway, I'm very happy, at least at this moment, everyone in the world thinks you're dead, and only I know you're still alive.”
Chen Feng put on a pair of sunglasses, then leaned back and whispered, “You will definitely die from talking too much in the future. Jiang Pingting, believe me. If you want to live longer, you'd better cut off your tongue, otherwise you'll die a very ugly death.”
Jiang Pingting smiled alluringly: “If my tongue were gone, this world would lose a lot of its brilliance.”
Chen Feng: “…”
