Chapter 150 Guilty
John chuckled and said, "We have to use our strengths. In fact, sometimes we will forget our strengths while amplifying the strengths of our opponents. Now all we have to do is to quietly touch Art. With small-scale penetration and full reconnaissance, we should not be afraid and worried about."
John's words clearly showed that he had a plan and method of action. This made Donovan feel much better. So he didn't say anything more, but returned to the tent and called out Pete, who was busy filling his stomach.
John was not present, and he walked towards him as Pete walked out of the tent. Something shouldn't be said by him, so all he had to do is drink and eat his fill now.
Pitt was not as calm as he appeared on the surface, or he was not really busy eating. In fact, he was very uneasy. The reason for his uneasiness was very simple. In fact, he was a little uneasy because he stole Eric's secrets. Although he was well prepared and was sure that he had done it very cleanly, this was the first time he had done such a thing, so he was still a little worried. Especially after Tucker appeared, he knew that these people were not so much coming to pick up people, but more accurately they came to pick up intelligence. So this guy named Tucker would definitely carefully check the memory card and include the contents inside. This made Pitt even more nervous, for fear that something went wrong.
When Donovan called him out alone, he couldn't help but think about the bad things. But after seeing John walking straight past him in a look of nothing, Pete quickly stabilized his emotions and tried hard to remind himself not to scare himself.
After walking out of the tent, Pete quickly looked around. What he wanted to see the most was Tucker, to see if the guy had already left with Eric. As long as they left, it would be over. No one would doubt the possible problems here, and no one would think about that aspect afterwards. So after looking around but not seeing Tucker, Pete immediately looked at Donovan with a strange look, "What's wrong, sir? Is there anything wrong?"
"Uh... well..." Donovan seemed a little difficult to speak, and after hesitating, he said, "There is something I want to tell you." Donovan looked at Pete with a puzzled look, and after thinking about it, "This time I... maybe... no, it's not possible, I can't go to Abkhazia anymore, I mean I can't be with you anymore. John asked me to evacuate with the wounded. I wanted to stay, but he didn't allow me to do this... So I think... I don't know what to say... I don't think I can't leave you because... because if
I left too... You are the only one left here. I mean, the 009 team... But sorry, John disagrees with you and me because of the manpower problem. In other words, I can neither be with you nor let you leave with me... I know that if I hadn't stood up, you wouldn't have stood up at all. Maybe you were already waiting for the car to leave here at this time and then ready to go home... But now the reason for letting you take the risk does not exist, and you still have to continue taking risks, which makes me feel... "
"I think you betrayed me?" Peter said when he saw that Donovan couldn't continue.
This sentence obviously made Donovan feel very harsh, but that was what he thought, so while he felt it, it also made him breathe a little relieved because he didn't let himself say it.
Pete suddenly smiled and said, "Stop kidding. The wounded should have been sent away. I should have gone to Abkhazia too." As he said, Pite shrugged and said, "It was indeed as you said, I saw you stand up, so I stood up too. But then I thought, I could still come back alive today because someone could take great risks to save us when we were in danger. Today we suffered a lot of losses..." Pete said, pointing to those who were also preparing to leave in the compound.
The people who came back with them and did not respond to John's call continued: "They suffered a lot of losses. So I think I should go and save those who are still in Abkhazia. Even if I fail to succeed in the end, I have to go. Especially after John said that, if I don't go, I think I will feel guilty in the future. The most terrible thing for me is not being condemned by others, but myself. I don't want that. So, sir, you have no need to blame yourself. This is what I should do, that's all. It's really that."
Peter's words made Donovan breathe a sigh of relief. He believed that what Pitt said was the truth, and based on his knowledge of serving with Pitt, Pitt did not say beautiful words, but really thought so. Otherwise, he would not have a good reputation in a group stationed overseas that often had to perform combat missions, and would not let himself know him.
But Donovan still looked at Pete and said, "Really? I mean you really think so?"
"Of course." Pete put away his smile and said with obvious confusion: "Is there anything wrong with this?"
"No, no, no." Donovan waved his hand and said, "No problem. Now the problem is me. Not you." After saying that, he opened his right arm and hugged Pete and said, "I can tell John again to let you leave here with me."
"No. Sir." Pete shook his head and said, "I want to go there. And I'm very persistent. I don't think we'll have any more troubles we have. I don't think Mr. John is someone who can fall twice in a pit."
"If you persist." Donovan nodded helplessly, "Be careful, brother." He patted Pete on the back.
Pete also patted Donovan on the back and said, "I will." After that, he looked at both sides and turned, "Is Eric taken away?"
"Of course. I just left shortly. What? Do you want to say goodbye to him?" Donovan said half-jokingly.
Pete waved his hand quickly and said, "I don't want to see him again. I wanted to throw him away several times when I was running for him on my back. I just wanted to know that he did leave alive. This can always mean that our mission has been completed. Although the loss is so great... it is not in vain." Pete glanced at Donovan and said, "What should Jeff do? Can we find him?"
