Indeed, as he predicted, the team they encountered did not suspect much until they asked about their supervisors. At that time, Tang Ling immediately made a sign and started spraying.

"Let's go. We have more work to do." Tang Ling urged the men to follow without forgetting to loot the firearms carried by the victims.
