Chapter 175 Sister-in-law, I'm Sorry
"Comrade Lu, we are here, please follow me."
Lu Youyou nodded and unbuckled her seat belt. Before she could get up, Xiao Huihui had already rushed out.
“Hey, you…”
Not only Lu Youyou was stunned, but Liu Yongkang also widened his eyes.
However!
The harder Xiao Huihui rushed, the harder he fell. He crashed less than two meters away from the cabin door. Fortunately, the altitude was low, so apart from the embarrassment, everything else was fine.
Lu Youyou didn't care about the pain in her back and quickly jumped down to pick up Haodaer, whose eyes were full of stars. "How did you fall? Are you okay?"
Not only did Little Huihui's eyes become like mosquito coils, but he also had tinnitus and a buzzing in his head, as if ten thousand people were beating drums and gongs beside his ears.
Zhuifeng was a little better and didn't feel dizzy, but his head kept shaking after getting off the plane, and his two big ears bounced back and forth on his face.
Liu Yongkang stepped forward quickly and said, "Comrade Lu, how is it?"
They came to provide reinforcements, how could the main search and rescue force get lost?
After two minutes, Xiao Huihui was finally able to stand up on his own. He opened his eyes a little, took in his current situation, and his legs went limp as he sat on Lu Youyou's hands.
It’s over, I’m so embarrassed!
Lu Youyou gently massaged it: "Are you feeling better? Are you still dizzy?"
Little Huihui silently spread one of his wings and covered his face. What should he do? Is it too late to pretend to faint now?
At this time, someone came over. It was Shen Shiling, who had not been seen for a long time.
"Comrade Lu, Director Liu, you are finally here!"
Shen Xianling was very different from his gentle and refined appearance in the family compound. His body and face were all rough from the wind and rain, and his skin color was much darker than before.
The look in his eyes when he looked at Lu Youyou was both hopeful and heavy.
He was a veteran of the Chinese People's Liberation Army and he knew very well that the probability of being rescued after being missing at sea for two days and two nights was infinitely close to zero, and it was even possible that even the body would not be found.
But now that Lu Youyou came in person and brought Xiao Huihui with her, his heart, which had sunk to the bottom of the valley, finally began to beat a little.
Reason told him that it was almost impossible, but he was still unwilling to believe it.
Gu Qingye not only completed many secret missions, but also saved many brothers in the last operation. Not only him, but everyone in the camp and in the hospital was hoping that Gu Qingye would return safely.
"The rescue boat is still out there?"
"One ship has returned, and we are still searching for the rest."
Liu Yongkang turned around and said, "Comrade Lu, shall we go to the headquarters first?"
Lu Youyou nodded and followed.
The temporary camp was quite large, with rows of military tents of similar specifications. Lu Youyou couldn't tell east from west, south from north as he walked among them.
When she walked into one of the rooms, she didn't recognize anyone inside. However, Lu Youyou didn't care who was who at this moment. She just wanted to know the latest situation of the search and rescue team.
A military map was spread out on the table, with many nameless islands marked on it. Most of the offshore ones were crossed out. Lu Youyou discovered that more than half of the coordinates she gave were also marked with the same mark.
She knew without anyone explaining it that these places had already been searched and nothing had been found.
"Comrade Lu, there are still two coordinates that have not yet sent back news, what do you think..." Liu Yongkang asked Lu Youyou for his opinion.
Although the other few people did not interrupt, there was clear inquiry in their eyes.
No matter from which perspective, Lu Youyou is out of place in the military camp, but the Kunming dog wearing an eye patch gives people a familiar feeling.
The situation is so urgent, it's fine for family members to help remotely, but how can they allow people to participate in the front-line search and rescue work? Wouldn't it waste more time if they lose control of their emotions?
However, the commander had personally instructed them before they came, so even if they had any objections, they would not express them at this time.
"Can you show me the hydrological conditions in this area?" Lu Youyou drew a circle on the map with her finger.
One of the middle-aged men glanced at Liu Yongkang and nodded, "Okay."
Lu Youyou took the letter paper on the table, thought for a moment and started to calculate.
Liu Yongkang and Shen Xianling were not surprised, but the others looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.
"Report!"
The communicator brought news from the search and rescue team. Except for Lu Youyou, almost everyone's hearts sank to the bottom.
There were no clues, no one was found, no "remains" of a diving suit, nothing.
Lu Youyou didn't stop writing. No news was important now. She could only continue to expand the search range.
"Xiao Huihui, have you rested well?"
"Gu!"
Okay, okay, everything is okay. The chance to avenge my previous shame has come!
Everyone looked at Xiao Huihui, and then one after another opened their mouths and held their breath. Lu Youyou actually brought an owl to recognize the map!
"Focus on searching here and here." Lu Youyou circled two new coordinates, then clicked on a few old coordinates with a cross, "Check these again when you pass by."
Lu Youyou held Xiao Huihui in front of him and said, "Lu Huihui, I'm counting on you!"
“Gu!!!”
Pack it on the eagle!
Xiao Huihui jumped up and quickly disappeared into the night.
There was silence in the tent for more than ten seconds. Even though Liu Yongkang was prepared, he was still too shocked to speak.
Only Shen Shiling was a little more normal. He and Xiao Huihui were neighbors and had seen its magical powers to some extent. It would not be strange even if it could talk like a parrot or a mynah bird one day.
"Comrade Lu, would you like to eat something first? I'm sorry, I have to ask you to go to the field hospital to rest for a night today." Shen Xianling said.
Liu Yongkang also advised: "Comrade Lu, take a rest first. Now that you are here, you can get any news first."
Lu Youyou also wanted to be alone for a while, she needed to sort out if there were any mistakes.
"It's troublesome."
Shen Shiling led her through the other half of the camp, and in front of them there were tents with red crosses on them.
Lu Youyou guessed that a bed was added for her in the nurse's tent. Before she could ask, a young soldier on crutches limped towards her.
There was gauze wrapped around his head, half of his face was swollen, and a hint of white was visible at the edge of his collar, so it was estimated that his upper body was also injured.
Lu Youyou stepped aside to make way, but the young soldier threw away his crutches and knelt upright in front of her.
"Shen Zhongyun, what are you doing?!" Shen Xianling was startled and reached out to help him up.
Lu Youyou was stunned for a moment. Is this Shen Zhongyun?
She didn't recognize it at all!
"Sister-in-law, I'm so sorry. If the captain hadn't given me his intact scuba gear, he wouldn't have… uh…"
Shen Zhongyun cried heartbreakingly, and his face was so badly injured that it was unrecognizable. The scene was truly tragic.
Shen Zhongyun's voice was full of regret and guilt.
Ever since he woke up from the operation and learned that Gu Qingye's whereabouts were unknown, he felt like he had lost his soul. Now when he saw Lu Youyou, he could hardly control himself.
It was because of him that the captain has not returned yet. He felt that he was the culprit. If it weren't for saving him, the captain might have already embarked on his journey home instead of drifting in the cold sea and disappearing.
