NOVEL NEXT Chapter 647: No Retreat
"Mr. Li, we found several bombs underground, and not only that, there are also some virus-like things."
The demolition expert had just finished speaking when Director Nie arrived with his team and happened to hear the words.
What's the situation!
Director Nie: "Mr. Li, what's going on? How come there are viruses and bombs!"
Evacuate, we must evacuate.
The demolition expert wiped sweat from his forehead: "Let's evacuate."
If we don't retreat, our lives could be caught up here.
Li Yehan: "There's no talk of retreat."
Withdrawing now will surely lead to bigger problems.
Director Nie: "Let me call in some experts in this field to take a look. Don't worry, if there really are bombs, I'll bring in bomb disposal experts too."
This is a residential area. If it explodes, the nearby factory and apartment buildings won't stand a chance.
Director Nie rubbed his bald head, angrily cursing: "These bastards, being Hua Country people, can still do something to harm their compatriots. None of them should think about escaping."
They're all waiting to eat bullets!
Director Nie: "Mr. Li, your men should evacuate first; it's too dangerous here. I'll focus on evacuating the people and get experts to come and take a look."
Li Yehan: "I've already called the experts."
Director Nie: ?
"Already called?" Director Nie was a bit surprised.
As Director Nie voiced his inquiry, several old acquaintances walked in from outside.
Director Nie: "Old Xie, why are you here? I haven't even notified you yet; how did you know there was an emergency here?"
"Old Mo, didn't you say you had a mission and couldn't come? Why are you here now? Is it because of our years of friendship, you felt guilty, and decided to come here to help me?"
Director Nie smiled widely and patted Old Mo's arm: "Old Mo, indeed you're my good brother!"
Old Mo awkwardly explained: "Old Nie, Mr. Li invited me over..."
Director Nie's smiling mouth instantly dropped.
It was indeed a bit awkward.
Old Mo: "Before you called, Mr. Li had already contacted me, faster than you."
So, they didn't come because of Director Nie but because of Li Yehan.
Director Nie touched his bright bald head, awkwardly wishing he could find a crack to hide in!
He was thinking they had deep brotherly love!
Turns out, it was all because of Li Yehan!
No matter who brought the people, as long as it's for the good of the people and considers the bigger picture, it's a good thing.
"Alright, guys, let's get busy."
Each person took on their role and got busy.
Li Yehan's phone was still on the line, and Nan Qiao heard about the situation over here and followed along in anxiety.
"Li Yehan, how about I come over and have a look?"
Nan Qiao was also worried about Li Yehan's safety.
"Qiaoqiao, be good and just watch some TV at home, listen to some music, alright?"
This time, he can't soften his heart for Nan Qiao.
He must refuse when necessary.
Nan Qiao lay helplessly on the bed, keeping in touch with Li Yehan anytime.
Besides that, there was nothing else she could do.
Huo Siyu heard about this, rubbed her fists, ready to go.
"Qiaoqiao, if you can't go, I can go for you. I've been so idle lately I'm about to mold. I want to go on a mission but fear that the chaos in Jing City might affect you. How about this, I'll go there and take a look. Whatever intel Li Yehan doesn't share with you, I'll share it."
Huo Siyu went straight to work and soon arrived at the scene.
Upon arrival, Huo Siyu saw Mo Shaolin.
Mo Shaolin was directing something, changing his clothes.
Removing his outer sweater, putting on a specially made vest.
When he realized someone was watching him, Mo Shaolin turned his gaze towards Huo Siyu's face.
Surprised and concerned, Mo Shaolin was even more worried.
With long legs, he quickly walked up to Huo Siyu.
"What are you doing here?" Mo Shaolin asked anxiously.
"If you can come, why can't I?" Huo Siyu replied coldly.
"This place is too dangerous. We've found bombs here, and now I need to follow the team to defuse them. You should leave; this is not a place you should be."
Mo Shaolin grabbed Huo Siyu's arm, pulling her away.
Huo Siyu forcefully shook him off.
"Mo Shaolin, you defuse your bombs, I'll do my thing. Don't bother me, and I won't bother you."
Seeing that reasoning wasn't working, Mo Shaolin didn't want to give up.
Why hadn't he realized before that Huo Siyu was such a stubborn person?
"Just look, but don't get close, it's too dangerous inside."
Huo Siyu didn't respond.
Mo Shaolin wanted to continue nagging, but someone inside called him.
Mo Shaolin: "Coming."
Mo Shaolin had to go busy himself first.
Huo Siyu walked into the courtyard again, where Li Yehan was talking with Director Nie.
Seeing her, Li Yehan said, "Director Nie, you go ahead, we'll talk later."
Director Nie left.
Li Yehan frowned: "Why did you come here? Does Qiaoqiao know? It's too dangerous here, you should go back."
Huo Siyu: "Li Yehan, you probably don't know yet, but I'm a bomb disposal expert. I heard from Qiaoqiao that there are bombs here, so I came to check. I'm not here for fun, I just want to ensure the safety of the people."
Huo Siyu knew that Nan Qiao was very worried about Li Yehan's safety.
If she didn't come, Nan Qiao would certainly be restless.
Even though Nan Qiao doesn't express it, Huo Siyu understands.
Li Yehan didn't expect Huo Siyu to have such skills; the friends around Qiaoqiao each had extraordinary talents.
"I'll go in to check the situation first; I won't act recklessly, don't worry." Huo Siyu walked inside.
...
The situation on Li Yehan's side couldn't be concealed.
When Mei Tian Sha Zi found out about the situation here, she smashed her wine glass to pieces.
Originally, she was enjoying red wine, in a good mood.
Receiving this call, she went numb, losing her interest in drinking.
Mei Tian Sha Zi stood up, her anger mixed with disbelief, causing her movements to lose their previous grace.
Li Tianyi saw her like this and knew something was wrong, frowning.
"What happened?" Middle of the night, can't people get a good night's sleep?
Mei Tian Sha Zi spoke sharply: "How could they be found out? Xiao Bo and his team always conduct themselves secretly! If they were discovered, surely more things will be uncovered later."
Sister Hua on the other end said: "Sis, I know things are tricky, hard to handle. I didn't anticipate such a thing happening; Xiao Bo and the others have never slipped up."
"Never slipped up, so why now? He wouldn't have been bribed and betrayed you, would he!"
The person on the other end was terrified: "Sis, we would never betray you. Plus, only I know your identity, Xiao Bo doesn't know anything. Rest assured, I'll sort this out for you and ensure you have no worries. It's just that the things buried in the yard might not be preserved anymore."
Mei Tian Sha Zi exhaled sharply: "Order a swift retreat! If we have to abandon the things, so be it!"
