"They have been lying in wait for more than a decade and have set up an experimental base in the mountains. To this day, we still haven't found the exact address."

"The higher-ups received a tip, so they dispatched a joint military and police force to arrest them, resulting in many injuries."

Team Leader Qin's eyes were filled with pain.

Japan is setting up research bases in China and injuring their comrades, yet they can't do anything about it.

Lin Chuchu's hands clenched suddenly, her eyes reddening slightly. At this moment, her heart was filled with hatred.

She snorted coldly, "I'm afraid they have powerful backers and lackeys above them."

Lin Chuchu gritted her teeth. There will always be people who disregard national security and betray their country for personal gain.

Those people live off the state and use the state's resources; the people and the state have pushed them to high positions, yet they refuse to act like human beings and are willing to aid and abet evil.

Team Leader Qin remained silent because Lin Chuchu's words made sense, and even their superiors thought so.

“These people couldn’t possibly be unaware of what’s happening in Japan. The fact that they can still continue means that someone is providing them with financial and logistical support.”

"What a clever scheme! Do they really think China is easy to bully?"

Lin Chuchu didn't consider herself an angry young woman; she knew that people could be good or bad, so she wouldn't generalize about the people of Japan.

When she went to Japan to cause trouble, she still maintained the goodwill that should have been shown to the people of Japan.

But now, she only wishes that the Cherry Blossom Country would disappear from the world, preferably be wiped out, so as to save it from polluting the air in time.

Lin Chuchu took two deep breaths, and her mood gradually calmed down.

"Captain Qin, please tell the higher-ups that I'm willing to drop the mushroom egg on the island of Sakura Country."

Trash should disappear, all of it should die!

Team Leader Qin nodded. "Okay, I will report this to the higher-ups."

Time passed slowly, and every minute and every second was torture for Lin Chuchu.

Mr. Mu ordered a lot of food from the state-run restaurant and delivered it to Lin Chuchu and the members of Team Qin's group.

Lin Chuchu had no appetite, but she couldn't go without eating; she needed to maintain her spirit and not let her health collapse.

Time quickly passed into the middle of the night, but Lin Chuchu hadn't slept at all. She wasn't sleepy at all; on the contrary, she was very energetic.

Just then, Mu Chen's eyelids twitched. If Lin Chuchu hadn't been watching Mu Chen closely, she would have thought it was a hallucination.

Lin Chuchu immediately leaned forward, getting closer to Mu Chen.

"Brother Chen..."

The voice was very soft, with a hint of uncertainty.

Mu Chen opened his eyes blankly and looked at Lin Chuchu.

"neat……"

Mu Chen's voice was hoarse, and his eyes were fixed on Lin Chuchu, as if he wanted to imprint Lin Chuchu's face in his mind.

Lin Chuchu's voice choked, her nose stung, and tears streamed down her face.

Seeing Lin Chuchu's tears, Mu Chen felt extremely distressed. He raised his hand to touch Lin Chuchu's eyes, but Lin Chuchu grabbed his hand instead.

Lin Chuchu buried her face in Mu Chen's palm, feeling the warmth of his hand.

She almost lost him; the fear and dread brought this usually strong person to tears.

"Chuchu, don't cry, it's my fault... I'm awake now, aren't I?"

Mu Chen didn't know how to comfort Lin Chuchu, and what he said made Lin Chuchu roll her eyes.

Feeling relieved, she was in the mood to joke around with Mu Chen.

"You always apologize whenever something happens. You scared me to death. The doctor said that bullet was just a hair's breadth away from your heart..."

Lin Chuchu kept talking, but Mu Chen just listened quietly with a gentle and tender expression on his face.

Lin Chuchu reached out and gently pinched his waist, causing Mu Chen to hiss softly in pain.

Lin Chuchu thought she had really hurt him, and worriedly touched Mu Chen's body.

"Is the wound painful? Or is there some other hidden injury? If not, I'll go call the doctor."

Mu Chen grabbed Lin Chuchu's hand and said softly, "I'm fine, it doesn't hurt. How could your little bit of strength hurt me? I was just teasing you."

Lin Chuchu met Mu Chen's smiling eyes and was so angry that she wanted to hit him, but in the end she couldn't bring herself to do it.

Lin Chuchu leaned gently against Mu Chen's leg, her expression dazed, and said, "I was really scared to death today. I thought I would never see you again."

Lin Chuchu's voice choked with emotion. She wasn't a sentimental person, but at that moment, she was truly terrified of losing him.

Mu Chen reached out and touched Lin Chuchu's face. The moment the bullet struck him, he thought he would never see her again in this life.

He believed he had done right by the country, but he had let down Lin Chuchu, his children, and his parents.

"sorry……"

Mu Chen apologized softly, but he knew in his heart that if he were given another chance, he would still make the same choice.

Lin Chuchu rolled her eyes at him, then picked up the insulated lunchbox next to her, which contained rice porridge that her father had sent.

In case Mu Chen wakes up at night, it can at least fill his stomach.

The aroma of rice porridge wafted out as the lunchbox was opened.

Mu Chen was indeed hungry. He was just a little weak and would be fine after eating something.

The rice porridge was cooked until very soft, with plenty of broth, making it easy to eat.

Lin Chuchu helped Mu Chen lean against the bed.

Mu Chen wanted to take the spoon and drink it himself, but Lin Chuchu stopped him.

Lin Chuchu fed Mu Chen bite by bite, and just as the two were interacting sweetly, the door was quietly opened a crack.

Team Leader Qin and Mu Chen looked at each other. Seeing that Mu Chen was awake, Team Leader Qin openly opened the door.

"Awake? Does your wound hurt? Should we call a doctor?"

The doctor had previously said that if Mu Chen showed any abnormalities, he should be called immediately.

The doctor was very busy today, treating several wounded soldiers.

However, Mu Chen's condition was the most serious.
