Chapter 1328: Chapter 1333 The Key to Victory

A sniper, it could only be a sniper. Only a sniper could have such an effect—being hit before hearing the gunshot.

The aide placed Aaron on the ground, then drew his gun. His first reaction was to look at Yang Yi and the others, but found they were also stunned, quickly ducking for cover, and he shouted, "Sniper!"

Yang Yi didn’t know what happened, because this wasn’t part of his plan.

Yang Yi had already thought about how to deal with Aaron, even how to use this cross to achieve his goal, but Aaron was shot.

"Reggie!"

Yang Yi shouted, looking at Reggie, who seemed to still be asleep.

Anton pointed his gun at Reggie, and Grevatov pointed his gun at Aaron’s aide.

This wasn’t a setup by Yang Yi and his group, but someone indeed fired at Aaron.

If this was arranged by the Cleaner, then the Cleaner would at least need to know the location, but the meeting place between Yang Yi and Aaron was randomly chosen, so either Aaron had a mole, or Yang Yi had a mole, or the Cleaner had been monitoring Yang Yi’s moves all along.

Aaron’s aide pointed his gun at Yang Yi, but didn’t fire immediately, and Yang Yi yelled, "It wasn’t me!"

Everything happened in an instant. By the time Aaron was shot and fell to the ground, Yang Yi and the other two had already ducked behind the car.

Aaron’s aide hesitated but didn’t fire, because if Yang Yi and his group had fired, it wouldn’t have been like this.

The shooting position was identified.

The shooter was over 400 meters away, direction confirmed, from a small grove, bullet fired from within the trees.

Aaron’s aide dragged him towards the car for cover from the bullets.

But he took just two steps before falling headlong to the ground.

A bullet hit Aaron’s aide’s neck, but by then Yang Yi had already grabbed Aaron’s hand and pulled him to his side.

Aaron looked utterly shocked, holding the cross in one hand and pressing his abdomen with the other, weakly saying, "Oh, fuck..."

Aaron was severely injured; the bullet pierced his back just beside the left vertebrae, ravaging his abdomen and exiting his belly, creating a big hole.

Just then, Anton shouted at Reggie, "Get down!"

Reggie opened the car door, appearing normal, but stumbled while getting out because he’d been shot in the leg.

Reggie half crawled, half rolled over.

If there’s no mole by Aaron’s side, then it could only be someone from Yang Yi’s side, but seeing Reggie also got shot, his suspicion level sharply decreased.

Reggie quickly crawled next to Yang Yi, crying out, "What’s going on?!"

"Don’t panic, stay still!"

Yang Yi already turned Aaron over, pressing one hand on Aaron’s belly trying to stop the bleeding, yelling at Reggie with the other hand, "Don’t move! Get down!"

Reggie didn’t move, trying to feel his leg with both hands, while shouting, "I’ve been shot, I’ve been shot..."

Aaron stared at Reggie, eyes wide open, because Yang Yi was sideways to Reggie while he was facing him directly.

Reggie drew his handgun from his waist, aiming at Yang Yi, but before he could fire, Grevatov acted first.

He kicked Reggie’s hand—not a fatal blow.

Yang Yi was surprised but not shocked; there were few candidates left for a mole, and Reggie being the mole wasn’t too unexpected.

Aaron looked at Reggie, extremely shocked yet weakly saying, "You are the mole..."

One of Reggie’s hands was pinned down, screaming in pain, but his left hand reached for his waist again, and after a click, his left hand couldn’t move either.

Yang Yi shouted at Aaron lying on the ground, "What’s going on? Reggie is your man! I’ve been saying someone is tracking us, but Reggie is your man!"

Aaron’s shaky hand reached out, grabbing Yang Yi’s clothes, urgently saying, "It’s a big problem; this is a kill trap—don’t take the helicopter, get out with the item quickly..."

Yang Yi urgently said, "I think you can still be saved!"

"This is a kill trap, and I’m dying. When I’m dead, you can’t contact anyone. The Cleaner knows this, the Cleaner knows..."

Struggling to breathe, Aaron continued intermittently, "You’ve got a good memory, listen, don’t stay in the United States, the Cleaner’s power is too strong, go to Europe, go to Vienna to find Bruno Osmo, the Teutonic Knights..."

Yang Yi nodded vigorously. Aaron took a breath, then continued to Yang Yi, "I can only trust you now, no, now I finally can trust you. Deliver this to the Grey-cloaked People; you must deliver it, must deliver it!"

"I understand! The helicopter..."

"The helicopter can’t be used!"

Aaron said excitedly, then continued, "Damn, now the Grey-cloaked People won’t trust you. You can’t explain it clearly—only by delivering this can you truly earn their trust. Also, listen carefully; ’The Holy Light shines, darkness descends, revelation, glory, mission, sacrifice, the door of victory opened by the Western Angel.’ Remember these words; don’t get the order wrong. Only by saying this can you gain trust! It’s my evaluation of you; don’t mess it up! Now, escape, escape the United States, go to Europe, find the Grey-cloaked People..."

A string of meaningless Latin words came out of Aaron’s mouth, and luckily Yang Yi had a good memory, or he might not have remembered correctly.

No doubt, these were definitely ciphers, and knowing the content was useless, the order also had to be correct.

Yang Yi urgently said, "Have your people help me! How can I escape now? You’re the Deputy Director of the CIA, who can explain I didn’t kill you, you have to hold on, you can’t die!"

Aaron’s hand gripped stronger, though weak, trying to rise but clearly unable to.

"The Grey-cloaked People in the United States have been infiltrated too badly, and, and... I ordered that if I died or was in danger, it was you..."

The situation got awkward for a moment. Yang Yi helplessly said, "So, you ordered your people to kill me?"

"This thing is too important, too important..."

Aaron brought the cross he had been holding to his side but had no strength to lift it anymore.

"Too important, deliver it to the Grey-cloaked People, it must not be seized by the Cleaner, absolutely cannot..."

Yang Yi helplessly and urgently said, "Give me more contacts, just a few more..."

"No more, only one person is qualified to handle this item, only one..."
