Chapter 1000...
As they watched Xiong Ba and Liu Xia Tian's two figures, one big and one small, gradually disappear into the shadows of the street, everyone withdrew their gaze.
"Now that the task is accepted, the next thing is how to complete it." Wang Ning looked at the black guide dog in the photo and suddenly said with a worried face: "But the problem is, in such a big city like Huixian, finding this dog is like looking for a needle in the ocean. Moreover, this task has a time limit of only 1 hour."
When Wang Ning said this, everyone else also furrowed their brows involuntarily.
After all, young people can't avoid being impulsive. At that time, it was just a bold and arrogant statement "not afraid of danger, not afraid of difficulties", and then took on the task. But when it really came to execution, I didn't know where to start.
"You guys said... are we being too rash?" Li Xue asked with a worried face, "There's only this one photo. There's no other clue apart from this. According to Wang Ning, searching for a dog in this treacherous Wolong City is like looking for a needle in the ocean. I'm afraid that before we even get to see the true appearance of this dog, we'll all be done for."
His face was burning with anger, "I... I don't know... Anyway, I'm just responsible for executing the plan. The rest is up to you guys." This guy was even more shameless, directly shirking responsibility. After speaking, he took out a white cloth and carefully wiped his sniper rifle as if it were a precious gemstone.
Qian Qian was getting anxious, she even regretted why she had blindly followed them and stayed behind, and accepted a very dangerous "hidden mission". But now...she was so anxious that she almost cried, her blurry tearful eyes kept glancing in the direction where Xiong Ba had left.
On the contrary, Yin Kuang's face was relaxed, as if he didn't worry about the current situation at all, and even seemed to be confident.
Li Shuangmu suddenly remembered a sentence from Xiong Ba, "You have 7 points of intelligence." What does this sentence represent? Is 7 points of intelligence high? Li Shuangmu didn't know, but he himself only had 5 points. Apparently, in terms of intelligence, Yin Kuang was 2 points higher than him.
Does high intelligence mean being smarter? Honestly, Li Xiangmu doesn't know. To be honest, when he took the IQ test, he got a high score of 160 points, which is considered a genius. However, this 160-point IQ only gave him 5 points of intelligence here, so does that mean that Yin Kuang with 7 points of intelligence has higher intelligence than him?
Li Shuang didn't want to admit it. He wasn't one who couldn't bear others being better than him, but he absolutely couldn't bear himself being inferior to others. Since childhood, the education from his family was to mold him into a perfect person, and he had always performed exceptionally well, leading among his peers. He had always been the pride of his family!
But at this time, he was stuck.
But anyway, it's now obviously not the time to dwell on who is smarter, but how to complete the task at hand.
Then, Li Shuang said: "Yin Kuang, looking at your confident expression, have you already come up with a plan?"
When he said that, everyone looked at Yin Kuang and indeed did not see any anxiety or tension on his face.
"Yes, Yin Kuang, what's your plan? Hurry up and say it out loud so we can all discuss it together." Wang Ning's face lit up with excitement as he pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose.
Yin Kuang smiled and said: "Actually, it's not even a plan. Just some ideas. I don't know if they're right or wrong."
Wang Ning's tone was slightly urgent, "Never mind whether it's right or wrong, just say it out and take a look. Everyone can contribute their ideas. It's better than standing here not knowing what to do, isn't it?"
"Alright, I won't keep you in suspense anymore. Now is not the time for detailed reasoning." Yin Kuang said: "The mission says 'Rescue guide dog Mary', note the wording, it's 'rescue', not search..."
"Does it... make a difference?" Wang Ning asked.
This is also everyone's question.
"There's a 'rescue' and a 'search', of course, there's a difference." Yin Kuang said: "No need for me to do word analysis for you guys?"
"Not...alright, I'll listen." Wang Ning found himself unable to make sense of it and simply shut his mouth.
"It's obvious that having the six of us search for a dog throughout the entire city of Bishoujo in just one hour is almost an impossible task, right? Since it's not like we can actually complete it... Okay, fine, Principal... Actually, I've been wanting to ask this principal who exactly he is... Why did he give us this task?"
"That... makes sense." Zeng Fei said.
"Let's take another look... The one we're going to 'rescue' is a guide dog. Everyone knows what guide dogs are used for, right? To help the blind navigate. Obviously, a dog that hasn't received strict training can't become a guide dog, and guide dogs are generally very intelligent. So, although we don't know why it got separated from its owner, once it realizes its owner is gone, what will happen?"
"Lost? Then I'll go find it." Lei Shuang murmured to herself, suddenly clenching her fist and saying, "I know. That guide dog must be looking for its owner. And a dog's nose is very keen, following the scent of its owner, relying on the intelligence of the guide dog, it's easy to find its owner. Maybe it's already on its way here."
"Wang Ning exclaimed: 'Right! How come I didn't think of that?'"
"Then... are we just going to wait here for it to find its master?" Qianqian asked.
"No!" Yin Kuang said: "The task requires 'rescue'. Why rescue, it means it is in or about to face danger. If it's already in danger, then we're powerless. First of all, we don't even know where it is. So, let's assume it's about to face danger, what should we do?"
Zeng Fei's eyes lit up and he said: "You mean... to ambush around, wait for the guide dog to arrive, and then make a move?"
Yin Kuang's eyes flashed with a hint of worry, and he said: "Actually, the only thing we can do now is to wait. We can only pray that everything goes according to my hypothesis. After all, the randomness of this task is too great. I think the principal set up the task without punishment for failure, possibly also considering this point. However, in any case, since there's no penalty for failure, it's always good to be fully prepared."
Li Shuang's eyes flashed with a hint of golden light, and then she picked up a stone from the ground and began to draw on the ground.
A large frame with several small frames inside, a few lines, and marked with east, south, west, and north. Everyone looked confused. However, Zeng Fei seemed to have seen some clues, "This is..."
Ling Frost pinched the stone, at a certain point on the ground pattern, "Here is where we are. Here is where the blind man Mike's body is. His body is right in the center of the intersection of the four roads. Here, here, and here, there are three roads that can be reached. And here, this is the highest building around, from the top overlooking, just can include all three intersections into view."
It turned out that what Li Shuangmu painted was actually a simplified map of the surroundings!
Who would have thought that this handsome and sunny guy had unknowingly taken in his surroundings and stored them in his mind. So, when people looked into his eyes, they were filled with shock and admiration.
"Stop staring at me like that. I, just like Zeng Fei, have been trained in the army before. Being familiar with one's surroundings is a basic lesson that every soldier must master."
Zeng Fei glanced at Li Shuangmu and thought to himself, "I'm afraid you're not an ordinary soldier..." However, he didn't say it out loud, instead saying, "In that case, I'll take care of occupying this high ground."
"Hmm. Also, your eyes can't stay open all the time. So Qianqian will be in charge of scouting with you." For a sniper, eyes are more important than life. And Zeng Fei, with his "Precision Strike" skill, is somewhat qualified as a sniper too.
However, Li Shuangmu arranged it this way also has the meaning of taking special care of this girl.
Qian Qian's thoughts were nimble and quick-witted, looking into Li Shuang's eyes which were full of colorful lights, she felt secretly grateful in her heart, but also felt embarrassed, "I..."
"Even if you stay down there, you won't be of much help." said Li Xue.
Qian Qian lowered her head and softly said "oh".
Yin Kuang asked: "Then what about us three?"
Wang Ning also said: "Right, they all have tasks, what are we doing?"
"Die!!"
