"Alright, I believe you all know where you are now."
Fan Tianlei looked at everyone, smiling like an old fox, and continued, "This is an execution ground, an execution ground built in a mountain in the suburbs. As for why it was built here at the time, there's actually a story about it..."
As Fan Tianlei spoke these few words, Wang Yanbing and the others' minds exploded.
They could no longer hear what story Fan Tianlei was telling. All that echoed in their minds were these two words: execution ground!
Since this was an execution ground, wouldn't they have to watch an execution later?
Before Wang Yanbing and the others could react, Fan Tianlei continued earnestly, "This opportunity is very rare, and it's an opportunity I managed to get with great difficulty. So, later, I hope you all open your eyes wide and watch carefully."
Damn it! There's going to be such a thrilling scene later?
Wang Yanbing and the others were already stunned by Fan Tianlei's words.
No wonder they were treated so well before, with extra tutoring and sweet tofu pudding... an execution...
Even Li Erniu, who was the most dull-witted, understood now.
This was clearly a setup! They had to eat sweet tofu pudding and then watch an execution...
"Report!" Song Kaifei shouted loudly.
"Speak!" Although the conversation was interrupted, Fan Tianlei knew that these people had never been to the battlefield, and it was normal for them to hesitate here.
"Do we really have to watch the execution? Gun... gunshots?" Song Kaifei's heart was pounding.
He used to be a technician. He had no experience with scenes like executions, which made Song Kaifei very nervous.
"Yes, is there a problem?" Fan Tianlei's brow furrowed upon hearing this.
After all, these people would eventually go to the battlefield, where live ammunition would be used.
Compared to the battlefield, this execution scene was child's play. On the real battlefield, it might not be the enemy's head that exploded, but their teammate's! How would they face that?
This was a more brutal problem.
But they had to face it.
Because this was the first hurdle for them to become special forces, and it was a hurdle they had to overcome.
"Report, no!" Song Kaifei immediately stood at attention, his heels tightly together, and answered Fan Tianlei.
"Good! Then I'll continue," Fan Tianlei nodded.
The subject of this execution was an overseas drug lord. He obtained illegal drugs from abroad and sold them in the country. He was caught two years ago, and after several court trials, he was finally sentenced to death.
After the death sentence was passed, his family, upon hearing the news, immediately spent a large sum of money to try and storm the execution ground.
That's why Fan Tianlei could easily apply for this opportunity. The military region wanted Fan Tianlei to keep watch around the area. After all, the vigilance of special forces was higher than that of other branches. Fan Tianlei himself also wanted to give his "Red Cell" team a taste of combat before they went to the battlefield.
After all, such scenes were not uncommon on the battlefield, and executions were not simply about shooting the criminal in the head, nor was it a single shot kill. It required two or three executioners to fire simultaneously at the criminal.
There were actually reasons for this. First, it was to reduce the psychological pressure on the executioners. After all, even the most skilled executioner would have psychological shadows from such scenes, as it ultimately involved ending a living human life.
Of course, this was also to prevent the criminal from escaping. Although there would be many guards present, if the criminal suddenly became violent, some criminals might coordinate from the inside and perhaps escape with their lives.
Therefore, simultaneous firing was very necessary.
Upon hearing Fan Tianlei's words, Wang Yanbing, Li Erniu, Song Kaifei, and the other members of Red Cell began to feel their stomachs churn, as if everything they had eaten was about to come back up.
"Alright, fall in!" Under Fan Tianlei's command, the group marched neatly towards the execution ground.
Upon entering, they realized that this place was a continuous mountain range enclosed by a fence. The central area was cordoned off as the execution ground. This area was quite large.
Qin Feng observed the surroundings. Among the dense bushes, a few soldiers were standing guard. It was his first time seeing an execution ground, and he couldn't help but be curious, his eyes darting around.
"If the host wants to see the execution ground..." the familiar voice of the system appeared in Qin Feng's mind again.
"Shut up!" Qin Feng immediately interrupted, knowing that the system was about to say something "high-definition uncensored."
It was best to tell the system to shut up as soon as possible when it came to such things.
System: "..."
"Attention!" Fan Tianlei shouted loudly.
The group reformed their ranks outside the defense line, having arrived early.
When Fan Tianlei saw Director Wen from the public security bureau and Director Gao from the armed police, he enthusiastically stepped forward to greet them, "Director Wen, Director Gao, you're here so early."
The three men clasped hands. Although Fan Tianlei had often played tricks on Director Wen and Director Gao, there was still a strong bond between them. This was more important than anything else; after all, the three of them were brothers who had faced death together.
Wen Changlin and Director Gao were around the same age as Fan Tianlei. When they met, their eyes revealed a hint of weariness.
Of course, Wen Changlin and Director Gao had not forgotten their primary mission. After greeting Fan Tianlei, they immediately asked him to inspect their defense line from a special forces perspective.
After receiving Fan Tianlei's affirmative reply, Wen Changlin and Director Gao were somewhat relieved.
Then, Wen Changlin was able to spare some time to glance at Qin Feng and the others brought by Fan Tianlei and said directly, "Ah, your students don't look very willing."
"They have to go through this sooner or later." Fan Tianlei also turned to look at Qin Feng and the others, lowering his voice, "Alright, I won't disturb your work. I'll watch from the side. Call me if you need anything."
"Okay!" "Okay!"
After speaking, the three saluted each other and then went about their own business, returning to their posts.
Subsequently, Fan Tianlei walked out of the defense line and said to Qin Feng and the others, "See? Inside this cordon is where the execution will take place shortly. From where you are standing, you will have a clear view of the bullets hitting the back of the condemned prisoner's head."
At this point, Fan Tianlei's tone changed, and he continued, "I have two requests later: first, keep your eyes wide open and don't close them; second, don't make any noise. Watch quietly, understand?"
"Understood!"
The next second...
