sarajevo sniper

At 02:30 in the morning, the convoy stopped at the Princip Bridge①, and Linnaeus got out of the car.

"I wish you all the best." The young soldier who gave up his seat waved to him.

This is a soldier who has never been on the battlefield.Lin Nai also waved to him: "I wish you live to go home."

The convoy left, and Linnai walked slowly across the bridge.The Milky Way was above his head, and the Milangzka River was at his feet. The river brought the cold air and fluffy grass to his face. Linnai only felt a chill on his head, and his military cap was swept away by the wind, and he spun twice in the air. "The ground fell on the river and drifted away quickly.

He stood against the bridge for a moment, then realized that he was in an important position. 100 years ago, that bold Serb might have stood in his position, secretly aiming his gun at the colonists from the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the crowded crowd.People later used his name - Princip instead of the original name of the bridge to commemorate this national hero.It was a time when Serbs were still respected. The name Princip was the pride of all Yugoslavs. At that time, they could commemorate him openly.

Public opinion and tone have only become sensitive in the past two years. No one mentions Princip anymore. They don’t even mention the word “national hero”—if the national hero is not a Serb but a Bosniak, Or the Croats, maybe not.Maybe one day the whole of Serbia will become a noun of the old times like Princip. People are eager to get rid of them and tear off the labels and characteristics of Serbia as much as possible.The smoke of the 21th century will eventually dissipate, and the new youth born in the [-]st century will not even know that Serbia once had a national hero who resisted the cruel colonists.

When the word "national hero" appeared in Lin Nai's mind, he felt a tremor from the inside out.Most of the time, he avoids touching this word, and he is extra cautious, which means he treats psychotropic drugs. He knows that after using it, his brain will have irrelevant thoughts.Lin Nai is a soldier, he doesn't like wild ideas, he wants exact and real things.

Right now, the most definite is the dilemma of not being able to leave the city.

Lin Nai began to organize his thoughts.Getting out of town requires money, transportation and identification documents.Fortunately for the first two, identity documents are the trickiest.Berramovich would not help him, he had to get the legal documents himself.He had legal documents before, so he should be with Leito now—after he was arrested, the Bosnian government army ransacked him completely. Something as important as an identity document would definitely be handed over to Leito, saying It may not be kept by the colonel himself, in case he escapes.

To get this document back, one must go back to Leto's command post.Linnai finally escaped, and if he went back, he might have thrown himself into a trap, but if he didn't get the documents, he would definitely not be able to leave Sarajevo.

The bold sniper gritted his teeth and walked straight in the direction he came and went.At this time, everyone must have thought that he was going to run away, and no one would have thought that he could go back, so the odds of winning were not lost.If he is careful, it is still possible to get the file back.

It was bound to be a busy and anxious night.

It was nearly three o'clock when Linnai returned to the headquarters, and the number of patrolling soldiers had indeed decreased.He went around to the side and hid in the shadow of the trees. A soldier came over. He grabbed his neck with his elbow suddenly from behind, covered his mouth with his big hand and twisted his head violently. His neck broke instantly!The soldier let out his last breath of hot air, and his body fell limply into Linnai's arms.

Lin Nai dragged the body into the green belt and hid it, found the walkie-talkie and took it with him, and went through the window to enter the first floor.The lights in the corridor were not turned on, and there was no one in the entire corridor. It was not the time for normal work in the morning. Except for an orderly person left in the duty room, the big office was empty.Lin Nai pretended to be nonchalant and knocked on the door of the duty room, where the orderly was dozing off.

"Hey, why are you on the night shift?" Linnai saw the duty list on the wall and grabbed a name at random: "Where did John go?"

The orderly lazily complained: "He's on sick leave again, and he doesn't know where all these problems come from all day long."

Lin Nai had already moved to his side, and suddenly drew out his gun, and the cold barrel of the gun was pressed against the temple of the orderly.The soldier woke up suddenly, struggling wildly in fright, and almost fell off the chair. Linnai covered his mouth and whispered in his ear: "Do as I say, and I won't hurt you. Listen Got it? Make any sound and I'll shoot right away."

The soldiers beat their heads like garlic.

Lin Nai was very satisfied: "Give me the layout of the building."

He watched as the orderly dug out a stack of drawings in the second drawer of his desk, and pulled out the layout from it.The poor child was so frightened that his hands trembled, and the drawing made a rustling sound.Lin Nai motioned him to lay the drawing flat on the table, and asked him to point out the location of the elevator leading to the underground air-raid shelter.That was the only way to Leto's office.

"Is your colonel in the office now?" Linnaeus asked.

The orderly shook his head, and told the enemy the office password without hesitation.

Lin Nai knocked out the orderly with the butt of his gun, and took the blueprint into his pocket.Coming out of the duty room, he quickly moved to the medical room where the elevator was hidden.The heavy military boots made no sound on the tiled floor, and the door of the medical room was pried open. He groped in and found the elevator hidden behind a small door.During the fall, he adjusted his gun posture. As soon as the elevator door opened, he heard two bangs. The two guards didn't even see his face clearly and were shot dead immediately.

There was only one office on the basement floor, Linnai stood in front of the door and took a deep breath.He admitted that he was nervous, and the ability to resist pressure cultivated in his career rarely made him so nervous.But Reto Fabrizio Solonazarov is a person who makes people nervous, and he has a dangerous smell that Linnaeus cannot ignore.

It's not that Lin Nai hasn't seen shrewd opponents, in fact he has seen many.But Leto is special, a unique exception. The secret of this young colonel is not resourcefulness, but a rigorous and meticulous understanding of the opponent.In other words, he had made sufficient and solid preparations before taking action, so that he had the confidence to show his wisdom.Lin Nai is most afraid of this kind of person.It's not the worst if the opponent is extremely smart, the worst thing is a talented opponent who still makes two hundred percent preparation.That would be a catastrophic challenge.

After entering the password, the heavy bulletproof door of the office slammed open.The lights were not turned on inside, and a dark and lonely cave was opened to the sniper.Lin Nai sneaked into the room, turned on the small flashlight carried by the soldier, and shone directly on Leto's desk.This is the neatest desk Linnai has ever seen, without a single piece of waste paper, just like the desk of a student on the first day of a new semester.

Several stacks of brick-thick file folders stood in the corner, and he unceremoniously pulled them out, emptied them in one go, and searched randomly among the papers on the table for his identity documents.The few drawers that could only be opened were also turned upside down by him, and the bottles and jars were scattered all over the floor, but he couldn't find out why.The bottom drawer needed a key, and he forcibly smashed the lock with two shots. It was full of labeled documents, arranged in the order of AZ, and none of them had anything to do with Linnai.

The huge bookcase against the wall is rich in collections, and the files may even be caught in any book, but Linnai has no time to read them one by one.At this time, someone on the walkie-talkie began to notice that there were fewer patrolling soldiers, and there was not much time left for him.

He forced himself to calm down and reorganize his thoughts.Leto is cautious, cautious, suspicious and has a strong desire for control. The things he thinks are important, probably only he knows where to put them, and if it is a place that only he knows.The more locked the cabinet in the office, the easier it would be for people to see that important documents were placed. He would definitely not put things in such a place easily.Furthermore, since only he knew it, this place should have special meaning to him, a more personal, less human contact place.

Lin Nai pursed her lips.It was not impossible if Leto had brought the documents back to his private mansion or placed them in some secret property in the city.The colonel of the Bosnian government army does not know how many private houses there are in Sarajevo. It is simply not feasible to search one by one.To make matters worse, if he carried it with him, Lin Nai would take even greater risks.

At this time, the sniper's gaze inadvertently caught a photo frame on the bookcase.It was a photo of a young woman with the same slate-gray eyes as the colonel. The two were probably relatives, and they should be sisters inferred from their ages.Lin Nai only felt that this woman seemed familiar. He looked around and realized that this was the only item in the entire office that had nothing to do with work and hinted at private life.

He quickly took off the photo frame, and the moment his fingers touched the back of the photo frame, he noticed something strange.That's not the thickness a photo should be.He removed the rear support plate, and sure enough, a thin ID card fell out behind the photo.

Lin Nai was overjoyed, it really took no effort at all.

"You don't have to rummaging through such a mess to find something, do you?" A helpless voice came from behind: "It will be difficult to clean tomorrow."

As soon as the voice fell, Lin Nai's gun had turned around and aimed at the person.

Leto turned on a desk lamp, revealing himself sitting on the corner sofa.He seemed to have been sitting here for a long, long time. He didn't change his clothes. It was still the daytime one. He had nothing but a red wine glass at hand.

"You were the one who invaded and stole things illegally, and you were the one who held up a gun to kill people. Do you know what this kind of behavior is called, Linnai?" The colonel was still reasoning: "According to the law, this is burglary. You are Do what robbers do."

Lin Nai clutched his ID tightly: "You stole my ID first. I just came to get my things back."

Leto smiled: "Anyway, I'm glad you're back."

"You know I'll be back?" Linnai frowned.

Leto shook his head: "I don't know." As if seeing that Lin Nai didn't believe his words, he added an explanation: "I do want to keep this certificate as a bargaining chip, but I think you managed to escape, and the possibility of coming back The sex is really small. The documents are just a trivial matter. Your loyal friend Berramovich can have as many documents as you want with just a phone call. However, judging by the situation, friends are not completely reliable, huh? "

Lin Nai's expression was gloomy: "But you are still sitting here, aren't you trying to catch me?"

"I'm waiting for you."

"What's the difference."

"Of course it's different. I didn't know you would come back, so it's not a trap. I just want to sit here and wait for you, even if there is only one percent chance that you will come back, I want to wait."

This statement is too ambiguous.Lin Nai's rationality told him not to think too much, and he kept his gun raised: "Don't think that you will win in this way. I have already killed the people outside, and now I can deal with you immediately and escape."

Leto was also very calm: "You can't kill me yet. If you kill me, you will really become a sinner. Serbia has not officially declared war on Bosnia and Herzegovina. You killed a senior officer of the Bosnia and Herzegovina government army. This is a provocation. Just like Prinposi killed Ferdinand, your shot is declaring war. Are you prepared for the embarrassing and passive situation that Serbia will fall into by then?"

Lin Nai tilted his head and smirked: "Who said you must be killed? I have many ways to make you lose your mobility without seeing the scars."

Leto sighed: "Then why are you hesitating? I don't have a weapon on me. You can do it now."

Linnai thought for a while, chose to put down the gun, and pulled the safety catch: "I'm going out from here now, you don't know anything, nothing happened, and I don't need to hurt you. Leto, I won't be You will become a dry bone behind you."

I don't know which sentence touched the thunder in the colonel's heart, but he didn't answer for a while.At one point, Linnaeus wasn't sure if he saw fleeting sadness in the Colonel's eyes, as if he had said something very hurtful.

After a while, Leto finally stood up: "Sorry, Linnai, I can't do it."

Before Lin Nai could speak again, he interrupted: "Listen to me, there is one thing I have to explain clearly. I have never regarded you as a report card. You say that as if you are a row on a certain performance report It says 'Capture Serbian sniper Linnaeus Lev, 10 points.' No, no, you're not, I didn't think about it, not for a minute, not for a second."

Linnai felt the danger subconsciously, he took two steps back, but he didn't want to raise the gun again, a thought stopped him, he felt that Leto didn't want to hurt him, at least judging from Leto's expression, he seemed to be very... treasured he.

"You know what I was thinking and how I felt during the four hours I sat here?" Leto's voice was unbelievably soft, but his next words were like acid poured into milk, making Lin Nai's blood covered Freeze: "I'm so angry, Linnaeus, I've rarely been so madly angry, I have to use all my strength to restrain myself from crushing that goddamn, fucking, goddamn broken wine glass! I want to be good Treat you, don't want to freak you out, I've tried to keep you comfortable and free, but what about you? How did you pay me back? You're fucking restless in the shower!"

Lin Nai's hands were faster than his head, he raised his gun and shot at Leto's feet without even thinking about it!

However, the safety catch had just been pulled on by him, and the trigger could not be pressed down.In just one second, he had already lost.A cool wind passed over his neck, some kind of needle-point sting stabbed his skin, he felt the coolness, and all the strength in his body was instantly removed.As soon as he let go of his hand, the small certificate fell to the carpet with a clatter.

Worst of all, he didn't pass out.He just didn't have the strength to lie down.

Leto's shiny black leather shoes stepped on the document, and the colonel seemed to have completely ignored the document.He squatted down, with unspeakable pain on his face: "Linnai, I gave you a chance, I want you to believe in my best side, I thought you would repay me with the same attitude. Unfortunately, you failed me .”
