Everyone Wants to Pamper the Bigshot Researcher After Her Rebirth!

Chapter 153: Rocket Launcher

Song Fan had spent over 30 years in both her past and present lives, and she had consistently excelled in everything she undertook.

This success had instilled her with a deep sense of pride, a confidence in her

abilities that had become an integral part of her personality. Since she had committed to protecting Gu Chen today, she had no intention of backing down.

As a display of her full strength, she tied her long hair into a ponytail—a gesture that typically prompted her teammates to keep their distance during her past military experiences, fearing accidental injury from her prowess.

Upon raising her submachine gun, she aimed for Mercenary A, recognizing him as the group's leader and the primary target that had to be eliminated first on the battlefield.

Mercenary A was taken aback, sensing that the full force of the opposition's firepower was trained on him, seemingly intent on his demise.

Desperate to buy time until reinforcements arrived, Mercenary A frantically retreated, grateful to be further away from the relentless barrage of gunfire.

However, Song Fan's precision and speed left no room for error, and she managed to wound Mercenary A in the leg as he dodged her bullets.

He turned to face Song Fan and shouted, "Which mercenary group do you represent? No matter how much Gu Chen is offering, we'll triple it if you're willing to cooperate with us."

Song Fan's response was cold and unwavering. "I'm more interested in taking your lives."

Without hesitation, she continued firing, narrowly missing Mercenary A's head due to his swift evasive maneuvers.

He realized that negotiation was futile and that he could only bide time for the arrival of reinforcements.

Just then, a helicopter appeared in the sky, and Mercenary A sighed in relief. "This battle can end now," he remarked.

Song Fan noticed the incoming helicopter and sneered, "These people are really worried that you won't die. They even brought a fighter jet."

Gu Chen offered a wry smile as he urged Song Fan, "I didn't expect them to go this far either. It's not too late for us to leave now.'

Song Fan, however, produced her phone and asserted, "If they can find someone, so can I."

Gu Chen was taken aback by Song Fan's determination. He realized that, even though there was an agreement between them, she was fully committed to protecting him, going above and beyond.

Looking at the resolute figure standing before him, Gu Chen's heart softened. He had always been the one to shoulder such responsibilities, and it was unexpected to find someone standing up for him now.

Gu Chen didn't know that Song Fan did all this because she refused to admit defeat. He had yet to realize that this was just a beautiful misunderstanding.

Before Song Fan could make the call, Gu Chen sighed and opened the door of the fire extinguisher on the wall. The thing inside had nothing to do with the fire extinguisher.

Song Fan was genuinely astonished this time. "Where did you acquire all these rocket launchers?"

It was challenging to obtain weapons in Hua Country, as it involved covertly smuggling them across the border. Song Fan was surprised to find that Gu Chen possessed such a substantial arsenal of anti-tank weapons, which he seemed to have distributed randomly.

Gu Chen casually explained, "When I purchased these firearms, the dealer offered a discount for buying them as a package, so I went ahead and acquired a set."

Song Fan hadn't realized that arms dealers provided package deals like this. She made a mental note to investigate this approach further, as it could potentially help her move some of her less marketable merchandise.

However, their immediate priority was dealing with the pursuing mercenaries. Song Fan picked up one of the rocket launchers, noting its long-range capabilities. She asserted confidently, "This one should be able to handle them."

Gu Chen was slightly caught off guard and asked, "Handle who?"

Before Gu Chen could react, Song Fan swiftly aimed the rocket launcher at the helicopter hovering above and fired. The helicopter was stationed at the height of the second floor, and its occupants were in the process of disembarking.

Mercenary A, noticing Song Fan's actions, frantically called for the helicopter to depart, but it was already too late.

The rocket struck the helicopter's tail, causing a catastrophic explosion that sent the aircraft spiraling to the ground in a plume of black smoke. Those mercenaries who had not yet disembarked were killed in the crash.

Gu Chen was taken aback by the audacity of Song Fan's move. He hadn't expected her to use a rocket launcher against the helicopter. The act effectively halted the arrival of their reinforcements.

Upon realizing the urgency of the situation, Gu Chen promptly grabbed another rocket launcher and aimed it at the retreating mercenaries.

Together, they launched an immediate and unrelenting attack, leaving the mercenaries with no time to react. The fleeing individuals turned to escape, but their speed was no match for the rocket-propelled projectiles. A series of deafening explosions followed, and over half of the pursuers met a grim end..
