Yang Hongchang was speechless. He rubbed his forehead and interrupted Zhu Chaomin, then turned to comfort Liu Kai.

"Well, Consultant Liu, Teacher Zhu also said it's only a high probability, not an absolute one, and besides, there's also artificial insemination."

Liu Kai's expression darkened slightly upon hearing this.

For a moment, I didn't know what to say.

He has no plans to have children for the time being.

But he can do without it, he can't live without it.

After a moment of silence, Liu Kai sighed and looked at Yang Hongchang.

"Commander Yang, now that the test results are in, there's nothing more I can do to help, so I'll be leaving now."

After thinking it over for a moment, Yang Hongchang nodded.

He stood up straight in front of Liu Kai, his face solemn and respectful, and raised his hand in salute.

His voice was calm and authoritative, and even his form of address became more formal.

"Advisor Liu, we will never forget your contributions. On behalf of the military region, I would like to express my gratitude to you once again!"

Although Yang Hongchang lowered his stance, Liu Kai knew that proper etiquette still had to be observed.

He quickly replied politely, "Commander Yang, you're too kind. It's what I should do."

"Okay, by the way, Xiao Liu, the plane you requested will be modified in a few days. We'll put it in the military hangar for now and deliver it when needed."

These two assurances merely indicate the official stance.

Liu Kai nodded upon hearing this and turned to walk towards the adjacent cubicle.

An automatic sprayer sprayed disinfectant, covering his entire body to kill the virus.

The double-glazed doors opened one by one.

Liu Kai approached Yang Hongchang and said, "Commander Yang, I'll be going now."

Before Yang Hongchang could answer, Zhong Linyu forced himself to sit up from the bed.

He called out through the glass, "Advisor Liu."

"Is there anything else, Staff Officer Zhong?"

Looking at Liu Kai's expressionless face, Zhong Linyu rarely showed a hint of guilt.

"I... just wanted to apologize to Consultant Liu again; dragging you into this was really..."

"I know!"

A genuine smile suddenly appeared on Liu Kai's face.

"I admire Staff Officer Zhong for his selfless act and for personally getting involved."

These words are sincere.

After this incident, his impression of Zhong Linyu as rigid changed significantly.

He truly admired this person's courage.

Instead of making soldiers scapegoats, he took the lead and stepped into the "quagmire".

Most importantly, the virus did not infect him.

It's just a little delay, no need to get angry.

Hearing Liu Kai's seemingly genuine expression, Zhong Linyu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, Consultant Liu. Actually... if there's a chance, we could be friends."

"No problem. Once you're done with your work, invite Captain Yu over for a good drink."

Liu Kai certainly wouldn't refuse.

After all, having more friends means having more options, especially when it's a high-ranking military officer like him.

Hearing this answer, Zhong Linyu smiled with satisfaction.

Yang Hongchang, who was standing to the side, seemed to have never seen Zhong Linyu look like this before.

He couldn't help but tease, "Hey Liu and Zhong, you're going out for drinks and you're not planning to take me along?"

Zhong Linyu looked embarrassed.

Liu Kai quickly replied, "I was just worried that Commander Yang would be too busy with official duties. It would be a great honor if you could come."

"Hehe, if I were to participate, you would definitely be too restrained and wouldn't be able to enjoy yourselves to the fullest."

"Alright, Xiao Liu, I'll send someone to take you back."

"Alright, Commander Yang, Staff Officer Zhong, take care."

Leave the factory.

Liu Kai boarded the helicopter arranged for him by Yang Hongchang.

As the plane flew westward, he looked up at the sky ahead.

The thick clouds couldn't completely block out the sunlight, which was tinged with a faint golden hue by the setting sun.

I greedily inhaled a breath of the cold air.

Although Liu Kai had already mentally prepared himself to make some sacrifices.

But being locked in that glass room all the time would feel too oppressive.

At this moment of regaining freedom, a feeling of boundless joy, like a bird soaring freely in the sky, arose in my heart.

Once the military has completed the aircraft modifications, he plans to immediately depart for Japan to steal nuclear fuel.

All we have to do now is stay home.

Use a flight simulator game to quickly learn how to fly a small fixed-wing propeller plane.

But Liu Kai was unaware of this.

As he boarded the plane and left, Qin Luofei, who was half asleep in the glass room, seemed to sense something.

He suddenly sat up in bed and looked around.

Not finding Liu Kai, a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

Finally, her gaze settled on Yang Hongchang outside the glass room.

His face suddenly darkened.

Yang Hongchang sighed slightly upon seeing this scene.

He knew that his niece had a stubborn personality, which led to her misunderstanding him deeply.

The culprit has now been caught in a roundup.

The remaining "second gold mine" in Fenghai has also been identified, and it will be completely eradicated by tonight at the latest.

It's time to clear up the misunderstanding.

...

When the plane landed again at the Lishiquyuan residential area, it was already 7:30 pm.

The sky was dark.

However, because the authorities extended the power supply time in remote areas by one hour, the community is still brightly lit.

Hearing the roar of the helicopter, many survivors looked down through the glass to see what was happening below.

In the eyes of everyone.

The wandering merchant was politely picked up by the military in the morning and politely returned in the evening.

What they didn't know was that so many big things had happened in that short day.

It was more exciting and thrilling than most people's entire lives.
