Cape Town is the first city established by white Europeans in South Africa, the mother city of white South Africans has changed hands several times over the past 300 years, and has been ruled and colonized by European countries such as the Netherlands, Britain, Germany and France. Cape Town's combination of European and African landscapes has made Cape Town one of the most beautiful cities in the world and one of South Africa's most popular tourist destinations.

Morningstar's Africa division is located here, and the building is not very impressive from the outside. The combination of the three letters of the SUM acronym became a prominent standard for Morningstar, and the large map of Africa on the wall highlighted Morningstar's characteristics as a military company. The various areas are marked with various colors, which is not a fixed map in the traditional sense, because many actually refer to the actual control area.

The actual areas under the control of various government forces, local armed forces and tribal armed forces are clear at a glance.

Zhao Jianfei and others were received by the head of the Africa department. Lin Rui wondered why it was not a black man who was in charge of African affairs, but a white man. However, he was soon relieved that this place, as the earliest colony, was originally a place where white people gathered.

The person in charge, Alberta, was pale and emaciated, with no expression on his face, which made his facial contours look unusually stiff. The blonde hair was neatly combed and hugged the scalp. After identifying the identities of Lin Rui and the others, Alberta said calmly, "You are the people mentioned by Silver Wolf?" Okay, as the head of this department, I should have picked you up according to the usual practice. But, to be honest, I really didn't take care of it. Because I've got a lot of trouble right now, and I'm just struggling to get it. ”

"We're here to solve the trouble, but I don't know what kind of trouble you're facing?" Zhao Jianfei moved his eyebrows slightly.

"Our company has employment contracts with many countries in Africa, and originally we mainly deal with sporadic armed conflicts and help maintain the situation in the region. The biggest thing is to crack down on small regional forces. But things have been bad lately, and we've had several bases attacked one after another. The other side has extremely high military literacy, and it is by no means a local armed force such as a guerrilla, but an army elite who has been in battle for a long time. Alberta sighed, "The attack tactics are also very methodical. ”

"You mean someone attacked the mercenaries of Morningstar?" Zhao Jianfei frowned.

"Yes, we have two bases attacked, but the identity of the attackers has not been identified until now. It is not even known what type of armament they are and which faction they belong to. It is even less clear for what reason they wanted to attack Morningstar. Alberta frowned.

"Does this happen often?" said Zhao Jianfei with a frown.

"No, normally we only provide auxiliary support operations. These small-scale regional conflicts are mostly the work of our employers. So although we are not likable, we are by no means so hateful, and ordinary armed men in the region do not dare to provoke us. Alberta explained. "There has never been an incident before where someone deliberately attacked company personnel. ”

"How bad is the situation now?" Zhao Jianfei asked, seemingly reading a bit of danger in Alberta's expression.

Alberta was silent for a moment and said, "The two bases were attacked almost simultaneously, in different areas, but there were only a dozen seconds between them, and there was no warning beforehand. So I have to suspect that this was carefully planned beforehand. And the losses were heavy, we lost almost forty people in two camps. And that's just the combat personnel, and the rest of the logistics and staff add it up, and even more than 100 people. ”

"Such a big thing?" Zhao Jianfei said in surprise.

"Now you understand why I'm so anxious. Alberta sighed. "I'm trying to convince the company that someone is doing something wrong. The company's response was that they simply had no information to support this claim. And I still have a lot of things to deal with, so I can't entertain you. ”

"No problem, but we want to go to the base first. Zhao Jianfei said.

"Of course. Alberta said, "But wait." Something like that complicates the problem. We are checking the base's defenses for vulnerabilities and can't go over for the time being. Because we don't yet know if there will be further attacks. I'd like to stay for a while, and I can send you there myself. ”

Zhao Jianfei has been at Morningstar for several years and knows a lot about Morningstar's security mechanism. Morningstar is a very professional military security company, and in the event of such an attack on the base, the company must go through a detailed investigation and inspection of every security link. So it's not convenient for Alberta to take them there at the moment, and it's reasonable.

Just as Alberta and Zhao Jianfei were talking further, Lin Rui was standing by the window, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a faint flash on a tall building in the distance. This is not a reflection of the glass window, because the light is reflected at the wrong angle. Lin Rui's face suddenly changed, and he took a step forward to push Alberta to the ground, and at the same time pulled the thick curtains. At the same time, there was a soft sound, and there was a small hole in the glass of the window.

"What's going on!?" Zhao Jianfei said in a deep voice.

"At three o'clock, there's a sniper on the roof! Lin Rui's eyes moved, and he shouted, "Judging from the position of the ballistic, it's not the one I found! There is more than one sniper." Close the curtains!"

As soon as he finished speaking, another gunshot rang out. The bullet hit the wall, sending up a white gray mist. Alberta squatted on the ground in shock, Zhao Jianfei pressed Alberta's head and whispered, "Don't move, judging from the shooting position, the other party's target is you." ”

"But...... How could it be ......" Alberta said with a pale face.

Zhao Jianfei quickly gestured to Yelena, motioning for her to go to the window and wait for the opportunity to kill the opponent's sniper.

As early as when Lin Rui issued a warning, Yelena had already quickly squatted down and skillfully assembled the 12. Barrett sniper rifle of 7 caliber.

She nodded to Zhao Jianfei, slightly lifted a small gap on the side of the curtain, and slowly looked for the target on the opposite side through the sniper scope. She is a very clever sniper in her own right, and has quite a knack for long-range sniping. From the bullet holes in the windows and the bullets embedded in the walls, she could roughly judge the position of the other party. As long as the opponent is exposed, she is confident that she can complete an effective sniper at this distance
