4553 The Other Side 522
Hua Jin was woken up by a violent jolt.
He opened his eyes in shock. The fuselage was passing through the air currents, causing violent turbulence. However, the few mercenaries beside him were already used to this kind of bumpy ride. They remained asleep, hugging their backpacks. As expected of well-trained mercenaries. Even when they were asleep, they were in unison.
Feeling thirsty, the actor rummaged through his combat pack for water. Footsteps approached.
He looked up and saw Alice’s gaze sweeping over. Before he could lower his cap, she exclaimed, “Hua Jin!”
“…” The actor raised his hand awkwardly and waved at her. “Hi, haha, what a coincidence!”
Alice raised her hand too, but she slapped him hard on the top of his head.
“What the hell are you doing here?”
“I…”
“And…” Alice tugged at his clothes in disdain and asked suspiciously, “What’s with the outfit?!”
“I…”
“Also, what’s with all this equipment?” Alice snatched his heavy combat backpack from him and opened it. There were all kinds of dry rations, snacks, and drinks…
Her eyelids twitched violently.
“Um… I was afraid that there would be no food or water along the way, so I prepared some in advance.”
The last time they were in East Africa, they had almost starved to death. Because he had learned his lesson, he prepared dry rations in advance, just in case.
Alice slapped him on the head again.
“Ouch! It hurts!”
“You have a death wish?!” Alice had a valiant expression on her face as she said fiercely, “You can’t even protect yourself, why did you come?! You think it’s some sort of fun party?”
The actor raised his hand and swore. “I swear I won’t be a liability!”
“You have such a big bag full of food. You think you’re fleeing a war or something?”
“…”
“Besides, the most terrifying thing in East Africa is not the FBI, but the plague. Do you know about the plague? If you catch the plague, your life will be over!”
The actor pursed his lips. “Anyway, no matter how much you scold me, I insist on going!”
He’d stop at nothing!
Stunned, Alice looked at the man, who seemed to be seething in anger. She sighed helplessly. “Alright, I understand. It’s useless to say anything now. You’re already on the plane. How can I throw you off?”
The actor’s sullen expression suddenly turned into one of affection as he smiled like a puppy.
“You have the cheek to smile!”
The actor immediately looked serious.
Alice turned around and glanced at a man who was looking on, stunned. She ordered, “Jack.”
“Yes.”
“You’re in charge of this guy’s safety.”
Jack shifted his gaze and looked at the actor with distaste.
Hua Jin pretended not to see the disdain in his eyes, although he was indignant.
Was he that weak?
Did he have to look at him with such disdain?!
“I don’t need anyone to protect me. I can protect myself!” Hua Jin patted his combat pack and added, “I brought my own gun!”
He would not give in in the face of danger. He’d fight to the death!
Alice slapped him again. “Since you’re on the plane, you have to obey all orders. Otherwise, if you anger me, I’ll really throw you off the plane!”
She looked at him threateningly.
“Yes, Ma’am.”
