"Extinguish it." Carrying the rifle on her shoulder, Flossie Wright ordered in a low voice.
"Okay." Devina Millet nodded without objection.
Since they were about to leave, extinguishing the fire was basic.
The presence of any flame could easily lead to a forest fire.
"Go and get into position for ambush." Flossie Wright continued to instruct.
The movement of extinguishing the fire paused, and Devina Millet frowned in confusion, "Why?"
"Figure it out yourself."
Flossie Wright dropped this phrase indifferently.
Then, she walked into the jungle.
Not to leave, but to hide, to ambush.
Devina Millet stood on the spot, looking utterly bewildered.
With things going so well, what was there to ambush?
Even if there were enemy forces ambushed at the fourth point, they couldn’t possibly search all the way here.
Suddenly making a connection, Devina Millet’s right eyelid twitched involuntarily.
Could it be that Cassie Ferguson and Bonnie Reyes really intended—
To do that?!
Devina Millet grew up in a nurturing environment, from a good family, and did not engage in so-called scheming. Her life up to now had been smooth sailing.
After graduating from the Military Academy and joining the Forces, she had always been exposed to positive things.
So, in a certain way, she was still somewhat naive.
Therefore—
Considering this, Devina Millet was, for a moment, unable to accept it.
What’s going on?!
Doubtful but half convinced, Devina Millet frowned as she extinguished the campfire and then picked up her gun to search for hiding spots around.
A fine drizzle was falling, and although the rain wasn’t heavy, it was very cold, causing her to shiver upon contact with her skin.
Yet Devina Millet, focused entirely on "resolving her doubts," completely ignored the cold as she lay down properly in a puddle of water.
Waiting in torment.
The answer to the riddle didn’t take long to reveal itself.
At most an hour.
Enough time for them to run a complete circle.
Six o’clock.
The sky gradually brightened.
The objects within sight became much clearer.
Hiding motionless behind a tree, Flossie Wright distinctly heard the increasing closeness of gunfire.
Her grip on the rifle slightly tightened.
At the same time, Devina Millet, who had been hesitating, finally turned her suspicion into certainty upon hearing the gunshots and footsteps.
Flossie Wright’s judgment hadn’t been wrong.
It was unexpected that Cassie Ferguson and Bonnie Reyes would be so despicable and shameless!
No, that’s not right—
Devina Millet slightly raised her eyes, catching sight of a rushing figure in the dim light.
Her eyes narrowed slightly.
Bonnie Reyes shouldn’t be among them!
All of this must have been Cassie Ferguson’s plan alone!
Otherwise, Bonnie Reyes would never come out as bait.
Was the plan to lure the enemy over while they were asleep and annihilate them all in one fell swoop?
A flash of anger in her eyes, Devina Millet gripped her rifle tightly and simultaneously aimed at the increasingly closer target.
"Bang bang—"
"Bang bang bang—"
The sound of gunfire drew nearer.

The two well-hidden rifles were being adjusted for aim.
And there, Bonnie Reyes’s figure, in one moment, broke through the dimness and appeared clearly in their field of view.
Panicked, Bonnie Reyes ran frantically through the bushes, but she wasn’t so irrational as to abandon all reason. She maintained a zigzagging escape pattern to avoid the two guns that might hit her at any time.
Just as she was about to reach Flossie Wright and Devina Millet’s sanctuary, Bonnie Reyes’s foot struck a stone hard, and she accidentally fell to the ground with a cry.
