Chapter 274 I'm Going to Pick Her Up
Commander Zheng tried to stop Chu Mingzhou, but Chu Mingzhou was extremely anxious at the moment and would not listen to any advice.
"Commander Zheng! I won't hesitate for a second no matter how dangerous the mission is, but my wife can't. She's not a soldier, and she doesn't have the responsibility! She doesn't need to consider the overall interests of the organization.
Besides, she is in poor health. I cannot let her suffer alone in such a dangerous place. I must go and bring her back. Even if it violates discipline, I will accept it!"
Commander Zheng looked at Chu Mingzhou's resolute expression and felt anxious.
He knew Chu Mingzhou's temper very well. Once he made up his mind, ten oxen could not pull him back. But he could not just watch Chu Mingzhou act impulsively.
"Mingzhou, calm down first. I know you are worried about Comrade Lin, and I understand your feelings. Let me contact Henan Province immediately to see if we can arrange for Comrade Lin to evacuate safely."
"I'm going to pick her up."
"Mingzhou! Captain Ke is right beside Comrade Lin. You know his abilities and skills. He won't let her be in danger."
Seeing that Chu Mingzhou's expression had eased a little, Commander Zheng sighed deeply and called the military station in Heshi City, Henan Province again in front of Chu Mingzhou.
The final reply was that it was not possible for the time being, and the earliest would be three days later. They said that the Northwest Military Region could send someone to pick her up, but Lin Anan would have to be evacuated three days later.
Chu Mingzhou stood up suddenly.
Commander Zheng hurriedly advised, "Mingzhou, you really don't have to do this! In order for Comrade Lin to successfully complete the mission, I have also instructed the Military Region General Hospital. They have already sent a doctor over. The doctor who went is the attending physician, and he can ensure the health of your wife."
There is something hidden in these words, and the meaning is obvious: no one else will receive such treatment, so you've got to get by.
To be honest, Commander Zheng is smarter than anyone else. When he learned that Chu Mingzhou would come back two days earlier, he made arrangements.
He knew that Chu Mingzhou was most worried about Lin Anan's physical condition, so sending an expert doctor over there, although a bit of an exaggeration, was appropriate.
"Approve me a car and I'll leave tonight!"
Chu Mingzhou clenched his fists, veins bulging on his forehead, and he didn't want to say it a third time.
He doesn't trust anyone now, and the only way to do it is to pick someone up himself.
Seeing Chu Mingzhou's persistence, Commander Zheng had no choice but to say all the good and bad things he could...
"Okay, I'll approve it for you! Take my special transfer order with you, otherwise something bad might happen."
Chu Mingzhou hummed lightly and said nothing more.
Lin Zihuai saw that his brother-in-law came in a hurry and left in a hurry, without even having time to change his clothes. He just gave a few instructions and drove away.
"Brother Zihuai, is there something wrong with my sister-in-law?"
Chu Minglan felt extremely panicked, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.
Chu Mingyu's tears were already welling up in his eyes. "Brother is so anxious, something must have happened to my sister-in-law!"
Lin Zihuai hurriedly closed the door and patted the two little guys' heads to comfort them. "What nonsense are you talking about? It's obvious that my brother-in-law has gone out for something urgent."
"Really?"
"Really? My sister's job is just a civilian job. She won't face any enemies. How could there be any danger? Don't think too much."
As he said this, Lin Zihuai's heart was in his throat.
Chu Mingzhou drove at lightning speed, and the car sped towards Henan Province like an arrow from a bow. His eyes were fixed on the road ahead, and Lin Anan's weak figure kept appearing in his mind. His anxiety made him step on the accelerator even harder.
Lin Anan was completely unaware of these things.
After working so hard for so many days, she finally had half a day to rest. She just wanted to take a good bath. She felt like she was going to stink...
Zhou Shengnan agreed, "The conditions here are tough, it's really hard for you. Let me take you up the back mountain and we'll go to the villagers' house to wash."
"Do you want to go up again?"
Zhou Shengnan smiled and nodded, "We are only halfway up the mountain. People here live in the mountains. They have lived in the mountains for generations. I'll take you to have a look."
"Thank you, Sister Shengnan!" Bai Xiufang was not polite at all and immediately got up to pack her clothes.
Lin Anan's eyes curved, and she was naturally happy.
"But...it's raining a bit heavily outside."
"Oh, it's okay, let Captain Ke drive, we won't save that little bit of gas."
The last time she took the bus up here, Lin Anan felt so uncomfortable that she vomited for several days as if she had sequelae. Now that she heard that she had to take the bus up here again, she hesitated for a moment.
Seeing her like this, Zhou Shengnan couldn't help laughing, "The road to the back mountain doesn't have many bends, and it's not far away."
After listening to Zhou Shengnan's words, Lin Anan hesitated for a moment, but still nodded, "Then I'll trouble Sister Shengnan."
The two of them packed up and followed Zhou Shengnan out.
Captain Ke had already driven the car to the door. When he saw them coming out, he greeted them and prepared to set off.
The car drove slowly along the path behind the mountain, and the wipers swung quickly on the windshield, making a rhythmic sound.
Lin Anan sat in the car, looking out the window at the mountains and forests washed by rain, and felt a little relaxed.
People are like this. They don’t realize it when they are lying down at home. After the high-intensity work in the past few days, their body and mind have really reached the limit. Now they have such a rare opportunity to take a break and feel more comfortable than ever.
After a while, the car stopped in front of a villager's house.
Zhou Shengnan got off the car first, greeted the villagers and explained her purpose.
An auntie warmly welcomed them into the house and pointed to the bathroom nearby. "Come on, it's right there. There's hot water in the pot. Take your time to wash."
"Thank you so much!" Bai Xiufang thanked with a smile and pulled Lin Anan towards the bathroom.
When the hot water was poured on her body, Lin Anan felt that all the fatigue in her body was dispelled bit by bit. She closed her eyes and enjoyed this moment of tranquility.
After taking a shower and changing into clean clothes, she felt like she was alive again.
After the female comrades finished washing, Company Captain Ke also took a bath.
The aunt poured them some tea and asked them to take a short rest.
Lin Anan sipped her tea and looked at the scenery outside the window. Unfortunately, the heavy rain blurred her vision, making everything a little hazy. However, she could vaguely see that there was a huge reservoir on the mountainside. The place was beautiful with clear water and green mountains, and the environment was very good.
Lin Anan's smile had not yet died down when there was a sudden loud "bang" so deafening that even the entire mountain shook.
Lin Anan almost dropped the teacup in her hand, and the tea spilled on her hands, but she was unaware of it. She stood up in a daze, staring straight into the distance.
Everyone was startled by the sudden loud noise. The ground shook violently as if it would crack at any time.
Captain Ke just came out of the shower room, his face turned pale instantly, and he immediately ran towards the group, "Oh no, there may be an enemy attack on our base!"
Zhou Shengnan also stood up immediately, her face full of horror.
The village lady was so scared that she crawled under the table.
Lin Anan stared out the window, her hands shaking, "What...what is that..."
Several people quickly looked in the direction of her finger, and through the window, they could vaguely see the collapse of the dam on the mountainside. The muddy flood was rushing out with an overwhelming force, and the waves were several meters high.
