The old veteran patted Flying Eagle on the shoulder, "Flying Eagle, you don’t understand, our captain is acting out of concern."
Everyone laughed upon hearing this.
Xia Luyao glared at them, pretending to be angry as she explained, "Don’t talk nonsense, I’m just concerned about our comrades."
"Then why don’t you show some concern for Leng Feng?" Flame quipped fearlessly.
Leng Feng, with a face full of confusion, chimed in, "Yeah, why not show me some concern?"
As soon as he said that, everyone couldn’t help but laugh.
Xia Luyao glared at them again, seriously saying, "Get serious now, this is no time for jokes! Hurry up and help arrange for the evacuees to board the ship!"
The members of the Venomous Snake Special Team immediately put away their smiles and turned to assist the navy.
Xia Luyao whispered to Lin Beichen, "You’ve been tired for the whole day, go rest." With that, she turned and left.
Leng Feng watched Xia Luyao’s back, puzzled: this legendary ice-cold beauty seemed to be treating Lin Beichen a bit differently.
Just as he wanted to ask Lin Beichen, a loud voice interrupted.
"Lin Beichen, Leng Feng!" The wealthy and chubby Qian Bida came over.
"Thank you both so much this time. I don’t have much to repay you with, so take this." He handed over two cards.
Leng Feng hurriedly waved his hands in refusal, "No, no, we have regulations, we can’t take anything from the people."
Qian Bida laughed, "Hey, these are just two tickets for a comedy show, not money."
"A comedy show?" Lin Beichen showed interest.
Qian Bida explained, "Yes, I have a brother in Huaxia who runs a comedy troupe. You can go listen if you have time, and with these tickets, you won’t need to pay for entry."
Lin Beichen took the cards with a smile, "Then I’ll accept. But I think your eloquence would suit a comic show."
Qian Bida laughed heartily, "We’ll see, I have to get on the ship now." He then quickly boarded the ship.
At this time, Captain Ding saw that the evacuees had mostly boarded and said to Ambassador Fan, who had just finished a phone call, "Old Fan, hurry up and board, we need to set off, the next stop is Samsalem port."
"What? We need to leave now? No way!" Ambassador Fan immediately refused.
"Why?" Captain Ding asked, puzzled.
Ambassador Fan said seriously, "In Sangkusa Town, there are still 47 Huaxia employees at the Chinese-Owned Factory who haven’t been evacuated, and more importantly, Dr. Chen from the aid team fifty-five kilometers away is in grave danger; he’s the primary target of the terrorists."
He had just received news that the conflict in Masure had fully erupted, and the safety of all Huaxia expatriates here was seriously threatened.
Although expatriates in the city had been evacuated here, the employees at the Chinese-Owned Factory outside the city had not been able to evacuate.
Moreover, Dr. Chen had been researching the treatment for the Ramanra Virus rampaging in North Africa and had become a target for the terrorists.
After hearing this, Captain Ding said in a deep voice, "But the situation is urgent, and we have no time to wait."
"And from Rockino to Saint Francis has been completely locked down, our Huaxia troops can’t enter." Though he wanted to rescue everyone, time really was running out. They still had to go to Samsalem port to aid more expatriates.
Ambassador Fan shook his head, unconvinced.
Just as the two argued non-stop, a voice suddenly interrupted, "Captain Ding, let us handle this task!"
Captain Ding and Ambassador Fan turned their heads simultaneously, surprised to see it was Leng Feng, who had just completed the evacuation task.
Lin Beichen and Leng Feng, after talking with Qian Bida, happened to see Captain Ding and Ambassador Fan in a heated discussion.
Curious, they approached to understand what was happening.
It turns out they were discussing how to safely evacuate Dr. Chen and the Huaxia employees at the Chinese-Owned Factory in Sangkusa Town.
Leng Feng stood up without hesitation and volunteered to take on the task.
Lin Beichen, hearing Leng Feng’s words, frowned slightly; it seemed Leng Feng said "we," but he hadn’t voiced his opinion.
"You two?"
Ambassador Fan looked at them curiously. He had witnessed their capabilities today, but having them set out again right after completing a mission was indeed demanding.
Leng Feng looked firmly at Ambassador Fan and said, "Ambassador Fan, Captain Ding, please entrust this task to us. Protecting every Huaxia compatriot’s safety is our duty!"
Lin Beichen watched Leng Feng’s impassioned demeanor, inwardly smiling wryly. Brother, if you want to go, go, but at least discuss it with me first!
Captain Ding looked at the two, full of admiration, and said, "Okay, this task is yours!"
Lin Beichen stood aside, helplessly saying, "Don’t you think you should ask for my opinion?"
The three of them turned to him in unison.
Leng Feng directly said, "Lin Beichen, I know you’ll definitely agree. No one else can do it if you’re not here."
Ambassador Fan also nodded, "Comrade Lin Beichen, your abilities are outstanding. If you go, I’m sure you can rescue Dr. Chen and the others."
Lin Beichen sighed. Although he felt they were being somewhat presumptuous, what they said was also reasonable.
In that case, let’s make another trip, perhaps it’s a good opportunity to earn some Faith Value.
Thus, Lin Beichen and Leng Feng prepared to set out once again to Saint Francis Hospital to rescue Dr. Chen.
The members of the Venomous Snake Special Team, after settling the evacuees, heard that Lin Beichen and Leng Feng were setting out again and offered to go in their place.
But Leng Feng insisted that the two of them go, as they already had experience.
Xia Luyao worriedly looked at Lin Beichen and advised, "The situation now is more dangerous than before, you must be careful."
Lin Beichen smiled and said, "Don’t worry, we will be careful. You all hurry and board the ship, we’ll meet at the next port!"
With that, he and Leng Feng headed to the jeep that Captain Ding had prepared for them.
Though members of the Venomous Snake Special Team were concerned, they knew not too many could enter the war zone, and so they boarded the warship, hoping to reunite at the next port.
At this time, Lin Beichen and Leng Feng were already speeding towards Saint Francis Hospital.
Leng Feng asked in surprise, "Lin Beichen, did you just pat the head of your captain?"
Lin Beichen glanced at him and said, "You saw it and still ask?"
Leng Feng muttered awkwardly, "You’re truly brave! Captain Xia Luyao is famous for being the ice-cold beauty in our military district, one move from you had me feeling terrified, and you still dared to pat her head!"
Lin Beichen laughed and said, "It’s just normal interaction between acquaintances."
Leng Feng gave Lin Beichen a thumbs up, showing his admiration. Then Lin Beichen accelerated towards Saint Francis Hospital.
Lin Beichen and Leng Feng sped down the road, soon arriving near Saint Francis Hospital.
"Look, that’s Saint Francis Hospital." Lin Beichen slowed down and said to Leng Feng, "I wonder what the situation is like there now."
Amidst the escalating conflict in Masure, Dr. Chen, as a key figure in researching the Ramanra Virus wreaking havoc in North Africa, undoubtedly became the primary target for the Red Scarf Army.
They speculated that Saint Francis Hospital might already be under the control of the Red Scarf Army or other forces.
Their vehicle stopped at the entrance of a shantytown in front of Saint Francis Hospital.
After getting off, what came into their view was a run-down shantytown with the faint stench of decay in the air.
And the hospital, the white building situated on a hillside, was their destination.
Lin Beichen frowned while observing the surroundings, then with Leng Feng, found a hidden spot to carefully watch the situation ahead using binoculars.
They discovered that there were indeed figures of the Red Scarf Army at the hospital entrance, but surprisingly, there was another force present.
"Who are those people? Why are they with the Red Scarf Army?" Leng Feng asked, puzzled.
Lin Beichen put down the binoculars, thought for a moment, then said, "They could be mercenaries or some sort of helpers hired by the Red Scarf Army."
