Dear Soldier, Put Your Gun Down novel Chapter 45

The gangster knew that she was telling the truth. His boss had once ordered that if he didn’t return with Matt’s wife, they wouldn’t live to see another day.

He dialed Matt’s phone number at once, and the two proceeded to communicate with each other in Esnurg’s language. Then, he walked over to Winona and pointed the front camera at her for a video call with his boss.

“Stay back!” Winona hissed defensively.

“Alright. Don’t be so aggressive, Ma’am. Our boss has agreed to talk to you.”

The gangster had stopped sounding so cocky.

Winona saw the man with the devil mask on the phone screen. However, his gaze was rather soft, giving her an inexplicable sense of familiarity. It was as if she had met the man before.

“How courageous you are. I admire that quality very much in a person.”

Winona said straightforwardly, “I know you caught me just to use me as a bait to draw Matt out.”

“Hehe… you’re indeed very smart.”

“You wouldn’t be able to stop me if I want to die.”

“What do you want exactly?” the man asked.

“All you want is me, so why are you bothering these innocent people?”

The man on the screen was silent for a moment, then he clapped his hands. “Madam, I think you’ve wasted so much time studying medicine. You are an extremely astute businesswoman.”

“So, do you agree to let these people go?”

“As you said, all I want is you. These people are nothing but rubbish to me,” the man answered.

“Well then, I can leave with your man, but you are not allowed to block the military plane from departing.”

“Hehe… you are very smart to strike while the iron is hot.”

He immediately instructed his men, “Move now. Escort Mrs. Snider to the base and remember to be polite to her.”

“Yes, Sir,” his men replied.

The man on the screen suddenly smiled at Winona creepily. “Ma’am, my name is Logan Farrell, I hope you remember this name.”

The men followed Logan’s instructions, taking Winona off the military plane. Seeing that the military plane had taken off smoothly, she felt much relief.

She was escorted into an SUV and was then blindfolded. Along the way, she could feel countless bumps and twists on the road.

About two hours later, the car came to a halt. The gangster removed the mask on her head and said, “Ma’am, this way please.”

There were a few military tents set up in front of her. The site built by these people appeared as though it was a temporary shelter. It showed precisely how cunning these people are: even if the head pilot managed to inform the military about her capture, they still might not be able to find her. Not to mention that the campsite was in a politically sensitive area of the three countries. Hence nobody would dare to act rashly.

Winona calmly walked into the tent and saw a man standing there. He had a slender built and was dressed in a black shirt. The man slowly turned around, looking creepy and terrifying with the devil mask on his face.

"I heard that you are very close with General Snider. Both of you have been separated for two days, so you two must be missing each other very much. How about I give you the convenience to call him?"

Winona clearly knew that this man was eager to use his decoy plan. She thought for a while, “Matt probably knows about me being kidnapped now and he must be very anxious. Why don’t I just take this opportunity to tell him that I’m safe?”

"Alright."

"Hehe... Mrs. Snider is indeed very bold. But you can only do so with one condition, you must cooperate with us."

He waved at his subordinate. Soon, a gangster came and handed her a pre-written script. "Memorize everything written in this and say the lines later!"

She glanced at the script. It instructed her to do nothing more than cry miserably and tell Matt how pitiful her situation was. It was meant to arouse Matt’s anger and sympathy for her.
