Dear Soldier, Put Your Gun Down novel Chapter 65

Then a surveillance report came on that strategic position that a portion of the refugees had begun to leave. Matt raised his eyebrows and scoffed, “Refugees? Looks like Logan’s escape plan was rather clumsy.”

Herman replied, “We had laid a siege on him for so long. Looks like he could not hold on much longer.”

“Now we must capture him at all costs. Otherwise, The President’s efforts are all wasted!”

Matt immediately led Herman and his men to drive towards the strategic position to capture Logan. Now he was accused of being a traitor, so only with the capture of Logan can he expose the mastermind and clear his name.

Felix and Kevin were ordered to stay behind to protect the encampment. Bang! A rifle shot could be heard and they looked towards the screen only to see a woman lying in a pool of blood.

Kevin munched on an apple and said, “Well done! This will show Cosmos that our FALCON Team is not to be trifled with. I won’t look at them even if they send a bunch of naked women!”

Felix looked at the woman who seemed to look familiar. He quickly grabbed the mouse and zoomed into her face and then his face went pale, “Kevin, why does this woman look so much like Winona?”

Kevin continued to munch on the apple and smacked Felix on his back, “Are you blind? This woman clearly is Winona! Hang on… Wi… Winona…?!”

Thud. The apple in his hand dropped onto the ground and both of them looked in horror at each other. They then quickly scurried out of there.

Felix struggled to insert the key into the ignition and mumbled, “Winona, please don’t scare us.”

Kevin was stunned as he looked ahead, “Felix, do you think that she will survive this?”

Felix kicked Kevin out of the car and yelled, “Shut up you fool!”

Kevin rushed into another car and chased after Felix. Regardless of how dumb he was, he knew that Winona was Matt’s life. Matt would be maddened if something happened in their area of responsibility. Once the wrath of Matt was aroused, everyone would be doomed.

At this moment, the sniper jumped out of the tree and followed the scent of the blood towards the ‘corpse’. He brushed aside the grass and only saw a pile of rags that were stained with blood. What the hell? Did she escape?

Then a female voice startled him, “Put down the rifle and raise up your hands!”

He did as he was told and was knocked out cold.

Winona observed the training of snipers when she was with Matt at Draiso’s army camp. She knew that they would have to confirm the kill before their mission was considered completed. Thus, she removed her clothes and hid among the grass.

She removed the sniper’s clothes and wore them. She then hid him among the grass and picked up his rifle and walked towards the encampment. She then saw military vehicles speeding towards her position and before confirming who they were, she quickly hid.

Felix and Kevin rushed over to where they saw her being shot. There were dense trees all around. Some bird squawked while the wind rustled the tree leaves. The occasional sun ray penetrated the thick foliage and gave them an eerie feeling.

Kevin whistled a familiar code but their sniper did not respond. He could not hold back and cursed, “Damn it, did that bastard make a run for it?”

Felix picked up the scent of blood in the air and his face turned pale, “Winona… she should be nearby.”

Suddenly a groan could be heard among the grass and they rushed over but saw the sniper dressed only in his underwear.

Felix laughed so hard that he even teared up, while Kevin asked, “Felix, what’s wrong with you?”

Felix struggled to speak as he laughed, “This must be done by Winona!”

He had been stripped to his underwear twice by Winona and knew that she was capable of doing this! Kevin suddenly realized and burst into laughter as well, “Damn it, woman! She almost scared me to death!”

Just as they were rejoicing, they heard an explosion and then could hear an engine rumbling.

Felix slapped his thigh and said, “Damn, Winona must have destroyed one car and driven off in the other!”

Kevin chuckled and said foolishly, “She really has some balls. Hang on… how will we go back?”

Felix looked at Kevin in disbelief, “Kevin, how were you chosen by Matt?”

Kevin looked proudly at him and said, “Matt chose me after I singlehandedly fought ten warriors.”

“You are all brawns and no brains. What are you waiting for? Chase her!” Felix ordered. Felix was not worried about Winona but was concerned that no one else in the encampment recognized her. All those who could recognize her had left on a mission with Matt.

Felix and Kevin ran as fast as they could. When they reached the encampment, they saw a trail of smoke and ruins. He grabbed a soldier and asked, “What happened?”

“Just now a female spy destroyed our kitchen.” The soldier reported.

“Where is she now?” Felix asked.

“She was taken by Second Lieutenant Shawn to be shot at the Lookout.” He replied.

“Fuck! You useless scumbags! You better brace yourself if something was to happen to her!”

Felix and Kevin sped off in a car leaving the soldiers totally stunned.

Felix drove as fast as he could and kept smacking the steering wheel. “Winona, oh Winona, please don’t let anything happen to you!”

“Felix, I’m afraid that …” Kevin muttered.

“Shut your damn mouth!” Felix yelled.

…

At the Lookout, Second Lieutenant Leonard Shawn pushed Winona forward as she coldly said, “You will regret killing me.”

“Ha! Wake up, woman! Countless women hope to become Mrs. Snider. However, our General only had eyes for one woman.”

Winona grinned and said, “What if I were to tell you that I am that woman?”

He pursed his lips and rolled his eyes in disbelief.

Winona was helpless as she had no means to prove her identity. Was she gonna die here?

Leonard stopped and then said, “Look around. The scenery is pretty good. Perhaps you’ll be able to rest in peace here.”

Winona looked towards the lake and had a plan. She then said, “It’s said that women are made of water. Then can you let me die in the lake?”

Her calmness impressed the second lieutenant and he said, “You are really something.”

Winona walked to the lakeside and Leonard raised his gun towards her.

Bang! Just as the bullet shot out of the barrel, she bent and fell into the lake.

Leonard ran over and saw a splash. He pointed his gun at the water and fired a few more times. The water turned red with blood.
