Chapter 448 A Mistake

After learning that Li Liguo had gained the appreciation of the higher-ups at the Fire Seed Base, Liu Long and his group went through a period of internal struggle before finally deciding to consult with Chen Yu on their decision.

So they quietly left the canteen. It was already past midnight, and there weren't many people outside. They easily avoided the crowds and headed towards the Fire Seed Warriors' accommodation area where Qian Peng was.

Chen Yu is playing the role of Qian Peng at this time, and he is currently living in Qian Peng's dormitory.

Because it belongs to the basic company of the Fireseed Chapter, its accommodation area is also on the periphery.

Furthermore, since the entire 1st Company of the 3rd Battalion of the 2nd Regiment was now composed of militiamen under Chen Yu in disguise, the group easily entered Chen Yu's dormitory under the guidance of two militiamen.

The two militiamen leading them were speechless. It was already past 3 a.m., what were these guys thinking, coming to find Chen Yu at this hour?

They seemed very nervous, and wouldn't answer any questions asked of them.

If Chen Yu hadn't instructed them beforehand not to worry about any special circumstances and to call him anytime, they wouldn't have dared to disturb Chen Yu's rest at this hour.

The militiaman walked to the door of Chen Yu's dormitory and knocked gently: "Mr. Chen, Liu Long and the others have something important to report."

Having been given a second chance at life, Chen Yu returned to the Fire Seed Base, filled with a profound sense of emotion.

In his past life, he was always hungry and cold at the Fire Seed Base. Even sleeping was a torment, as he didn't even have two thick quilts. It was so cold!

Thinking of the hardships he had endured in his past life, Chen Yu was filled with emotion, which made him unable to fall asleep, tossing and turning in bed.

Just as I was drifting off to sleep, I was startled awake by a knock on the door.

"Understood. Take them to the safe house and wait for a while." Chen Yu's voice carried a hint of displeasure, clearly indicating that his rest had been disturbed.

He got out of bed, got dressed, covered Lin Lele with the blanket, and then slowly walked out of the dormitory.

Originally, they should have been more vigilant during their infiltration of the Fire Seed Base and should not have allowed Lin Lele to sleep in his room.

However, Lin Lele is currently dressed as an ordinary Fire Seed Warrior, and the dormitory for ordinary Fire Seed Warriors is a large communal dormitory, so Lin Lele can only sleep in his room.

Fortunately, the entire company is now composed of members of their militia, so there is no risk of exposure.

After closing the door, Chen Yu walked through the corridor toward the safe house, wondering if Liu Long and the others had something important to tell him at this hour.

The so-called "safe house" was located at the deepest part of their company's dormitory. It was originally a room used to store miscellaneous items, but it was specially cleared out for them to conduct secret discussions after they moved into the Fire Seed Base.

When Chen Yu entered the council chamber, Liu Long and the others were already seated, their expressions tense and serious. Upon seeing Chen Yu enter, they immediately stood up and respectfully greeted him, "Mr. Chen!"

Chen Yu nodded slightly, gesturing for them to sit down. He walked to the head seat and sat down, then looked at Liu Long: "Speak, what brings you here?"

Liu Long swallowed hard, and then told Chen Yu everything they had heard about Li Liguo in the cafeteria.

After listening to Liu Long and the others' account, Chen Yu was speechless. What was going on? Li Liguo had long since turned into ice shards and was dead beyond any doubt. He had seen it with his own eyes. How could he still be alive?

Could it be that the other party was also reborn? Of course not.

Chen Yu shook his head and said with a wry smile, "You guys are so impulsive, you can't even keep your composure when faced with something like this."

"Huh? Mr. Chen, Li Liguo isn't dead? In fact, he's been appreciated by the higher-ups at the Fire Seed Base. Isn't that a big deal?" The group asked in surprise.

"I already knew about this," Chen Yu said calmly, without much surprise on his face.

"In your transport team, whether it's Li Liguo, Xiang Shaogang, or Yin Wende, they've all been turned into ice shards long ago. I witnessed it with my own eyes, so you don't need to panic." Chen Yu's tone was calm and firm, as if he were stating something perfectly ordinary.

"As for the fact that Li Liguo was appreciated by the base leader, it was a complete misunderstanding." Chen Yu smiled bitterly. "In the Wenshui Village incident, their names were all on the list of casualties I submitted to the Fire Seed Base. I suspect that there was an information error within the Fire Seed Base, which caused this mistake. I have already reported this matter to the commander of the Second Regiment, and I believe the Fire Seed Base will issue a correction notice tomorrow."

"Huh?" Liu Long and the other four looked at each other in surprise. They never expected that this matter would be a misunderstanding caused by a misreading of information.

Didn't they say that Li Liguo was appreciated by the leader of the Fire Seed Base, and that the base's high-ranking officials all offered their warm congratulations?

Could it be that they didn't even summon Li Liguo himself, or even confirm his information, before they started to publicize and congratulate him so widely?

Liu Long and his companions were right. In reality, the leaders and high-ranking officials of the Fireseed Base didn't care who received this "honor" at all. This person was merely a symbol they pushed out to stabilize morale and boost spirits. In the complex and competitive environment of the Fireseed Base, the higher-ups often needed to use certain events or figures to unite people and demonstrate the base's strength and unity.

In their eyes, those at the bottom of the base were not even as good as dogs, so how could they possibly personally summon them or even visit them to offer their congratulations?

It was just a notification; they didn't care who Li Liguo was or what he looked like.

As for the list of "sacrifices," they cared even less. They didn't care about the living, let alone the dead.

Of course, Li Liguo's direct superior, the squadron leader of the transportation team, was aware of Li Liguo's "sacrifice." After learning that such a notice had been suddenly issued, he immediately informed their captain that Li Liguo had "sacrificed" himself.

Their captain must have already reported the news to his superiors.
