Soon it was time to eat. Since the team leader had to drive back, they didn't drink alcohol and only had soft drinks.

The captain looked at the pair of twins with envy.

"That's wonderful, you have twins, unlike me, who only has one child."

These people could have two children, but years ago, they were injured and could no longer have children, so they only have one.

The captain was a little younger than Mu Chen, but not by much; he was already married and had children.

After he retired from the front line, his wife and children followed him to the army, and he finally settled into a life of family life.

Mu Chen had a feeling that there was something more to the other person's words, and he was afraid of touching a sore spot, so he smiled and asked him to eat.

The meal lasted until very late before the brigade leader finally left the yard.

The Mu family personally escorted him to the alley entrance before returning home.

The two little ones couldn't stay up this late, so Lin Chuchu took them back to bed.

I wanted to help my mom tidy up, but she wouldn't let me.

"You just got back, and you've already gone on another mission. Go and get some rest."

Lin Chuchu was pushed back into her room, and a short while later, Mu Chen also returned to his room.

Seeing Lin Chuchu staring blankly at the ceiling, he took off his shoes and got into bed.

"What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"

"During this mission, I met Old Zhao, who is Liu Rong's next-door neighbor. We even took Old Zhao to the hospital back then."

"He...is dead."

Lin Chuchu's voice choked with emotion, and her eyes were slightly red.

“He was in a car accident abroad. They said it was an accident, but I think it was done by that group of people.”

Lin Chuchu gritted her teeth and said that she now hated those people to death, a bunch of bastards who treated human life like dirt.

Mu Chen pulled her into his arms. No wonder Chu Chu was brought back by the captain this time; it seemed that Lin Chu Chu had participated in another dangerous mission.

Professor Zhao is a researcher with a significant background. His participation in scientific research missions abroad is also part of a national program.

Of course, sending researchers abroad is inherently risky, and if they refuse to return later, it would be a huge loss for China.

But it was a learning opportunity, and China didn't want to give it up.

"Don't think too much about it. Sooner or later, China will avenge its heroes."

It's unacceptable to let heroes die in vain; that would be disheartening.
