Chapter 686: survivor

"This trap is a bit special." Jason whispered suddenly.
"What's the matter?" Lin Rui whispered.
Jason lowered his voice, "This trap is called a Thomas-style trip trap, also called a fishing line trap. It was named after a US soldier during the Vietnam War, who discovered this jungle trap used by North Vietnamese troops during the Vietnam War. Like the infamous bamboo nail trap, the Thomas-style trip trap killed many American soldiers on the battlefield in Vietnam."
"How do you know so clearly?" Lin Rui frowned.
"The Vietnam War is an eternal pain in the heart of the U.S. military, so in the Green Beret’s Conglin combat training, I gave a very detailed introduction to these jungle traps." Jiang An nodded and said, "Jason is right. The structure and layout are a standard Thomas-style trip trap. And I don’t know if you have noticed, these nylon threads used as tripwires."
"It's a fishing line." Lin Rui frowned.
"Yes, and this type of fishing line is in our wild survival equipment." Jiang An said in a low voice, "It should be a U.S. army who laid this trap, and it is most likely Jason's teammate. Only the U.S. Army The special forces are only proficient in these mountain and jungle warfare."
Lin Rui frowned, "So, it is not the extremists who study the virus who set the trap, but a surviving US soldier?"
"It is very likely that it was a member of the commando operation who was not captured and survived the attacks." Jiang An nodded.
Yelena frowned, "Why aren't they the extremists who study viruses?"
"Because it takes too much time to lay such a trap and it is inefficient. It can only be used when there is no way to solve the problem. If it is a group of extremists, they will not arrange such a low-level Trap, they will install landmines, or other devices that can be used for alert. In short, it is much more effective than these things." Lin Rui explained, "Only those trapped in this U.S. military, they have no more resources, and they are most likely to be alone. One person. Only use this helpless method."
Nodding the shore, "Lin Rui is right, and besides, the cut marks on this sharp wooden post, the sawtooth scratches on the upper part can be reduced. This is because when the wooden post was cut, the hand holding the knife was a little flat. . It caused the sawtooth on the other side to leave marks. If I guess right, this is definitely an M9 dagger."
"So it should be an American army. Captain, what is your attitude?" Lincoln said sharply.
"The purpose of our mission is very clear, to find and capture the professor who studies the virus." Lin Rui said slowly, "If the US military really survived among the three original commandos, then he will be very helpful to us. .Because he is very likely to know the specific location and defense situation of this biochemical laboratory."
"But our task is..." Sergey whispered.
"Completing the first goal is the priority." Lin Rui shrugged. "We must find this lucky guy if he is not dead yet."
"Hey..." Wang Haoze pulled out a blood-stained bandage from the mound on one side. "Maybe this guy is not very lucky, his injury is not light."
Lin Rui frowned, "But he still handled the wound calmly and buried the bandage so as not to attract attention. This shows that he is nearby."
"For this amount of bleeding, he should have been seriously injured. But why didn't he flee here and go out for help?" Lincoln frowned.
"If you and Jason are captured, I won't leave either." Lin Rui said slowly. "Maybe that is why he is still here. His teammates are still here, so he is trying to rescue them."
"This Yankee is still a tough guy. After suffering such a serious injury, he still insists on not leaving his comrades." Sergey shrugged. Although he still maintained his disdain for Americans, his expressions were different. A trace of respect. After all, someone who can do this is worthy of respect.
Lin Rui knelt down and said in a low voice, "He buried the bandage here, so he must have left from here. I may be able to track him down."
"How to track it?" Lu Hanxin couldn't help but said.
"Footprints, small plants that were broken by external forces. As long as you observe patiently, you will find traces of this person everywhere. This will make us find this person smoothly." Lin Rui stared at the ground and pointed. The bush on one side said, "He passed through this bush."
"How come? I don't have any suspicious traces at all." Lu Hanxin frowned.
"Hurry up and keep up with the doctor, if you come late, you may not be able to save the wounded." Lin Rui shrugged and checked the bush, then picked a leaf and handed it to Lu Hanxin.
There are bloodstains on this leaf. Although the bloodstains have dried up, they should stay for a while. A trace of blood can still be smelled from this leaf. "Now you should believe what I said." Lin Rui shrugged.
"Well, you won. Maybe you really have a dog nose." Lu Hanxin shrugged helplessly.
Lin Rui led the team through the bushes and stopped by a small stream.
"He's been here. There are two footprints on the moist soil by the creek. But one is deep and the other is shallow, indicating that he has at least one leg injured." Lin Rui pointed to the ground, "He lost too much blood, add here. He drank some water. But he was wise and didn't drink much. But he should be exhausted from his footprints and he can't escape far."
"You are right!" A black shadow jumped down from the tree and wrapped Lin Rui in a hand, and the two rolled to the ground at the same time. A shirtless man turned over and stood up, holding an M9 dagger in his hand, lying across Lin Rui's neck.
"Boss!" Sergey exclaimed, and immediately took up the gun in his hand.
"Don't shoot!" Lin Rui immediately waved to stop him, "He is the American soldier."
"American soldier? Is that what you call us?" The man smiled coldly, "Then who are you? An international military-industrial group that studies virus weapons or a member of a terrorist organization?"
"It's just a mercenary." Lin Rui said lightly.
"Unsurprisingly. Asians, Russians, and Americans. So you are an international mercenary group?" The shirtless American soldier with fierce eyes said sharply, "Don't move, who If you dare to move, I will slit his throat."
Lin Rui chuckled slightly, "Brother, you are fast enough, but are you a threat?"
"What do you mean?" the American soldier snapped. Lin Rui could feel that the M9 dagger in his hand was near his carotid artery. This person is still an expert. Lin Rui smiled slightly.
