"I need to report immediately to Niki, it looks like we're in trouble."
Willie was about to report to the frontline command in Kandahar via satellite channel.
After all, an abnormal situation has now arisen.
He needed to ask Niki if they had deployed a response team on this side?
Or was there another US Special Forces team infiltrated here on a different mission?
All these factors needed to be verified.
If not, it strongly suggests the possibility of an enemy.
Just as he was about to open the channel and speak, a hand reached out and pressed down on his.
"Don't report!"
"Why?"
Willie, full of confusion, saw the firmness in Song Heping's eyes.
"Are you sure it isn't your own people trying to silence you?"
Song Heping's eyes were full of suspicion.
"Willie, you did cut off Curtis's head, this dirty job, are you sure your superiors won't want you dead to silence you?"
"Impossible! Our ISA operations are mostly secret, if they were to silence someone, no one would last more than a year in service." Willie immediately denied Song Heping's idea, thinking it completely ludicrous.
It was originally a secret operations unit under a military intelligence department, how could the tasks performed not be highly classified?
And many times, they had to do the dirty work by any means necessary.
If it was really about silencing someone.
Probably no one on the team could survive beyond a year.
"Your paranoia is too strong."
"It's not paranoia, it's caution," Song Heping said: "Being cautious keeps you alive."
Willie was somewhat at a loss.
Song Heping's words made him somewhat waver.
If it had been a few years earlier, Willie might have thought that Song Heping's words were nonsense.
But having experienced this time, he saw some completely revolutionary practices.
For instance, Curtis's father and the man in the White House could sacrifice an ODA team for a traitor.
"So what do you suggest we do?"
He lifted his hand from the call button.
Song Heping said: "Since we are here, we need to figure out who it is, now no one can be trusted, only we can rely on ourselves."
"They are in the dark, we are in the light," Willie said: "And we are only two people, how do we find them?"
Song Heping said: "Are all Americans this stupid?"
Willie's face changed color: "What do you mean?!"
Song Heping pointed at Willie, then at himself: "If it's people who are against us, what do you think their purpose here is?"
"Obviously to kill us!" Willie said: "If your guess is right, it means they want to silence us!"
Song Heping smiled, seizing the opportunity to mock Willie: "Exactly, we are the targets, since we are the targets and they come to us, why should we look for them? Need to search? Just wait!"
Willie blushed.
Song Heping's view was simply perfect.
Right!
He and Song Heping were the targets.
If they really wanted to kill him and Song Heping, then it would be them who would actively approach.
"It seems... very reasonable..." Willie said thoughtfully: "But where should we wait for them to appear?"
"Right, it makes sense, doesn't it?" Song Heping laughed: "Let's find a place, I'll study the map first."
With that, the two men left the shadows and began looking along the edge of the mountain.
There are many caves here.
In less than five minutes, they found a cave.
Though not deep, it was good enough to block out light when entering.
Upon entering, they found themselves turning into a corner.
Song Heping confirmed that this place wouldn't leak any light and be discovered before he let Willie take out his phone and then brought up the map to start studying it.
"We are currently here..."
Song Heping stared at the electronic map, made his own location, and then started analyzing the terrain.
