Chapter 381 Mr. and Mrs. Smith
On the jeep, He Chi, who was putting on makeup, turned to look at Christine, "I thought you wouldn't agree to her getting in the car. Have you confirmed the situation?"
"Probably" Christine was checking the luggage of the female reporter. "There were many reporters who went to the peninsula in private capacities during this period. Most of them were funded by unknown persons. It seems that some organizations want to use this to launch a public opinion war. It's just that I don’t know who did it yet.”
"This girl is probably an inexperienced rookie reporter who was used as a weapon by the other party without knowing it."
"What are you going to do?" He Chi then asked.
"Take it with you for the time being. Maybe you will get out of trouble soon. If it doesn't work, just knock it out and send it back to the US military headquarters." Christine continued.
He Chi looked at the disguised girl, holding the steering wheel and looking ahead, "Xinil, you are different this time than usual."
"Yes, I would have gotten rid of this kind of trouble as soon as possible in the past. I don't know what happened to me today." The French girl touched her face and smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly.
"Actually, I can understand. I'm a little familiar with her look like this." He Chi said from the side.
"Have you seen her?" Kristen asked in surprise.
"Yes, I've seen it before." He Chi smiled slightly. "A female reporter wants to make a career, but she is a bit idealistic and careless. She has no experience but grits her teeth and plunges into a dangerous battlefield..."
"Xinil, isn't this who you were back then?"

April woke up when it was almost dark, and it was only then that she truly got to know the two people who helped her.
Carl Smith and Christine Smith are a journalist couple who travel to conflict areas around the world to collect first-hand news. The woman is a reporter and observer, while the husband is responsible for photography and writing.
This kind of husband and wife team is occasionally encountered in foreign newspapers. After all, reporters who often go out in the field are indeed more likely to develop feelings for their partners.
"Mr. Karl, I heard that you and your wife have been to many war places. Can you tell me about the specific battles?" April asked curiously, holding coffee in her hand in the temporary village.
"This is a lot." Young Mrs. Smith poked her husband with her finger. "He basically went to the Battle of Britain in 1939, the Soviet Union in 1940, and later to Denmark, the Netherlands, Belgium, and later the Pacific Theater. ”
"My God! So many dangerous places?!" April opened her mouth in surprise and continued to ask, "Aren't you worried?"
"I'm worried, but what can I do? He is such a dangerous guy, so I have no choice but to chase him all over the world." When she spoke, the tenderness in Mrs. Smith's eyes was like sugar cubes that were too thick to dissolve.
"Wow! This is really so romantic. I really hope I have such a love." April also looked longingly at this time.
"What about you? Have you been to any good places? Beautiful lady?" Mr. Smith raised his coffee cup and gestured to the girl.
"Well, I, I've only been working for a short time. I used to interview government agencies for speeches... and I've only been to Canada..." April said with some shame, but the girl's self-esteem made her immediately defend herself. But this time is a good start. I will work hard on the peninsula and make sure to dig out big news.”
Mrs. Smith smiled slightly, "It's really a lofty ambition, but what is your purpose of digging out the big news?"
"Of course it's to restore truth to the people, and to reveal fairness and justice!" April said confidently.
"Fairness and justice... I haven't mentioned it for a long time." There was indescribable sadness in Mrs. Smith's tone when she spoke.
"Go to bed early, we will go to Seoul early tomorrow morning."
The next day, the three people got on a jeep and drove to Seoul, a hundred kilometers away. When they passed a checkpoint, there was a long line of people waiting to pass. These people were all wearing rags and they had obviously moved from other places. . On the other side was a group of broken soldiers, with some people with bandages on their heads leaning listlessly against trucks on both sides of the road.
Several children took this opportunity to come out from the roadside and beg for food from the crowd.
"Go away! This is nothing!" The defeated soldiers drove them away with a vicious voice.
April couldn't bear to look at the thin body opposite her. She took out some food from her backpack and was about to pass it over, but was stopped by Mr. Smith.
"You'd better not do this, it will bring trouble to yourself." The man warned the female reporter formally.
"It's just some candies and cookies, it doesn't matter." April didn't care at all and continued to pass the food to the child opposite.
call! ! !
The children swarmed over to grab the biscuits in April's hand. Dozens of hands reached out at the same time to surround the young female reporter, and then adults joined in.
April was like a small boat in the wind and rain, already packed and suffocated.
One hand reached over and grabbed the backpack containing food, throwing it to the back of the crowd, and then pulled the female reporter out of it who was about to suffocate.
"Don't take food in the refugee center. Once there are too many people, you may be squeezed to death." Mr. Smith reprimanded the other party seriously.
April lowered her head and remained silent, looking like a child who had just made a mistake.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"Get out of here! Get out of here!" A soldier dispersed the crowd and walked to the front of the jeep.
"Everyone get out of the car! In order to guard against spies, we need to check! Unpack all the luggage!" the leading officer said angrily, his eyes still glancing at the woman.
"The car from the Coalition Forces Headquarters, please come for your convenience." Mr. Smith communicated with the other party in English, and then quietly stuffed a few banknotes into the car.
The other party didn't even look at it. He roughly understood the amount of the banknotes by just rubbing them with his fingers.
The leading officer immediately changed his face and said, "Since it is the headquarters' car, it must be on important official business. Let it go!"
The roadblock was removed and the jeep jumped to the front of the queue, but just as it passed the checkpoint, something unexpected happened.
The chaos just now caused one of April's backpacks to come loose. As the car moved, the backpack fell directly onto the car seat.
Snap! The sound of heavy objects falling to the ground was heard, and the buttons of the loose backpack were popped open, revealing two brand-new cameras and a handful of green dollars inside.
The scene was silent for a moment. The expressions of the soldiers on duty changed instantly, and the officer leading the team had a greedy look on his face.
call! ! ! !
He Chi slammed the accelerator, and the jeep roared out of the checkpoint.
After a while, the sound of a patrol car chasing was heard from behind.
