As the days passed, thanks to the efforts of everyone, the small camp gradually became a force that could not be underestimated.
Some of the old orange trees around were cut down, and various traps and ditches were added again and again. Ji Yu almost turned the outskirts of this place into a maze.
Lin Qingqing has been playing badly lately. This period of time is the most comfortable time for her since her rebirth.
She didn't remind Big Ears that such a small place, no matter how hard they tried, could be destroyed with one artillery shell if the base wanted to cause trouble.
Lin Qingqing has been lying flat for over a month! Her face has gained two taels of flesh, more than three pounds.
The little hamster also gained weight with her. The little thing’s chubby face always reminded Lin Qingqing of Li Mengmeng.
She was powerless to find Li Mengmeng for the time being. She took Li Mengmeng's photo and asked Wang Xiaoshuai and others who had been imprisoned in Gemini Lake, but they had no recollection of her.
Liu Qiang and the others also thought about going to the island again, but Lin Qingqing felt it was inappropriate.
They had been lucky the last time, but later learned that something serious had happened on the island that day: Luo Dafu had lost his son and had fainted due to high blood pressure. Everyone's attention was focused on the main building, so they had taken advantage of the opportunity to sneak in and escape.
Lin Qingqing didn't want Liu Qiang and the others to die. No one's life was more precious than it was precious. Gemini Lake had become such a powerful force right under the base's nose, and it wasn't something a few people could shake.
However, in the last days, life can be bought as long as you can afford the price.
Lin Qingqing asked Zhao Yifan to take charge of this matter, and 10,000 points were posted on the missing person notice on the reward list of the base trading center.
If someone can be found and brought back safely, the transaction center’s third-party platform will pay 10,000 points, and the person who accepts the task does not even need to pay the high handling fee.
Based on the time when Qian Xiaomin fell ill and was sent to the hospital, that is, after 10 a.m. on May 25, those who can provide accurate clues can get between 500 and 1,000 points.
The hottest thing in the trading center recently is this bounty order!
Finding someone and bringing them back is difficult, but providing clues is much easier.
The reward notice also included Li Mengmeng's photo, name, original address, and parents' relationship.
Before posting the details, Lin Qingqing also carefully considered that exposing Li Mengmeng's photos might directly kill her.
But now she has no idea whether Li Mengmeng is alive or dead. According to Li Moran's previous statement, Li Moran will only look for her for two days.
Now more than ten days have passed, and there has been no news from Li Moran or the salted fish owner.
She had no other choice but to do nothing.
What Lin Qingqing didn't expect was that Li Moran suddenly became famous!
The people and soldiers in the base were moved to tears by his great spirit of "sacrificing his own family for the sake of the public."
The people flocked to praise him, and many women even threatened to bear children for Li Moran!
There were a few people who felt sorry for his deceased family members, but those voices were quickly drowned out by fanatical remarks that Li Moran was a tough guy and a great hero.
Gradually, no one dared to even mention the story of Li Moran's romantic relationship, for fear of being attacked by the crowd!
"What's the matter with the bounty?"
In the base command center, Li Baifu suppressed his anger and asked Li Moran in a calm tone.
But he couldn't hide the gloom in his eyes.
The disappearance of the family members of mid- and high-ranking military officers was widely publicized, and even the old men in Beijing called him on the satellite phone to scold him.
This is not something to be proud of; instead, it makes people feel that the base is incompetent!
Li Moran was silent.
Lin Qingqing, only Lin Qingqing would do this, and only she would be willing to do this!
Even if he sold ten thousand points, he couldn’t get them back.
But he couldn't betray Lin Qingqing.
Li Moran's eyes were bloodshot, his cheeks were sunken, and his originally well-fitting military uniform seemed to be several sizes too big.
"Where did you get the points?" Li Baifu put down the cup in his hand heavily when he saw that he looked lifeless.
The most important control over the trading center is still in the hands of the state. There is one flight running to and from the airport every day, mainly to transport necessary materials and to exchange what is needed.
Even the base commander Li Baifu cannot interfere in the affairs of the trading center!
Neither can Deputy Base Commander Luo Dafo.
The base is only responsible for maintaining order and security in the trading center, while the financial authority and specific transaction matters are all in the hands of the elite special forces from the capital.
Li Baifu, Luo Dafo and others were trying every possible way to infiltrate.
Li Baifu took great pains to let his nephew Li Xiaogang take charge of the special isolation hotel, which was originally the closest to the trading center, but now, Li Xiaogang is missing.
He also wanted to find his nephew, who was his relative. But with the chaos outside, he had no way of finding him since he was missing.
"…It's not me." Li Moran said after a long time.
"Bullshit! If it's not you! Who else could it be?" Li Baifu thought Li Moran was lying, and in a rage he picked up the cup and smashed it on his face.
Li Moran was in a daze and didn't dodge. The cup hit his face, which was as sharp as a knife, and blood immediately came out of his forehead.
He felt uncomfortable, and the physical pain could actually relieve his pain.
How come...the family is broken up?
He couldn't figure it out.
"Get out!" Li Baifu was annoyed by Li Moran like this. He was the subordinate he had cultivated and originally planned to be his successor.
As a result, it is not worthy of reuse!
Li Moran saluted silently, turned and left.
Li Baifu's voice came from behind: "You must remember, you are a soldier!"
Li Moran stamped his feet, his body shaking.
After a moment, he said in a hoarse voice: "Yes."
Precisely because he is a soldier, he never forgets his original intention and keeps his mission in mind at all times.
When his wife died, he didn't even go to see the body; when his mother-in-law, who treated him like a son, died, he didn't even burn a stick of incense; when his sweet and darling daughter was lost, he only took two days off to look for her.
He searched day and night for two days but didn't get any useful clues.
Because of his duty, he gave up the search...
Now, Xiaomin’s friend Lin Qingqing is helping to look for her. Does she want him to make things worse?
He is a soldier, but also a human being!
He has a heart, and his heart will hurt.
Li Moran walked out of the command center door and looked at the gloomy sky and thick clouds. Suddenly, he felt suffocated and couldn't breathe.
He hunched over, clutching his chest, and fell to the ground.
Before he lost consciousness, he vaguely heard a sneer.
laugh?
Who is laughing at him?
It’s Lu Geng.
He looked at Li Moran who was lying unconscious on the ground and sneered.
Inadvertently, seeing Li Shenghua's car approaching, Lu Geng's face immediately showed a trace of anxiety. He shouted to the men following behind him: "Quick, send Captain Li to the hospital."
His subordinates didn't react for a while. Just a moment ago, they clearly saw their superior gloating.
"What's going on?" Li Shenghua strode over and was stunned when she saw Li Moran being helped up by Lu Geng.
After just a few days of not seeing each other, Li Moran seemed to have been drained of his energy. He used to be a smart and masculine man, but now he looked old and frail. Like a decadent middle-aged man.
"Hey, Shenghua, you're here... Captain Li has been overworked and isn't feeling well! Well, I'll take him to the hospital first..." Lu Geng's face was full of concern and anxiety, as if he was worried about his comrades. There was no sign that he had a tense relationship with Li Moran.
"Then go!" Li Shenghua urged without giving it much thought. In her opinion, comrades-in-arms, no matter what minor conflicts they had in normal times, would help each other when something happened.
