Chapter 233: People Hiding in the Dark
Liu Hefeng did not explain it too clearly, only saying that someone had lured away the guards at the base's warehouse.
As a result, a box of parasite medicine and some other medicines were lost in the warehouse. Several soldiers discovered them while on patrol and were injured.
Neither Han Ying nor Lu Yuan expected this to happen, and they did not continue to ask. It was already not easy for Liu Hefeng to tell them this.
Today is New Year's Eve. After they go home and have their New Year's Eve dinner, they will start their shifts.
Before leaving, Han Ying gave them three incubators to take back.
There was a large piece of cake and some dishes in each.
After the three of them left, Han Ying and the others went into the kitchen and started to get busy.
We agreed to come to their house for New Year’s Eve dinner tonight.
Some dishes are taken out from the space before people arrive, while others are cooked on the spot.
Not long after, Lei Minghu and Qin Qinghai's families came over.
No one came empty-handed. Qin Qinghai brought half a rack of frozen spare ribs, which was just right for making sweet and sour spare ribs later.
Lei Minghu and his friends brought over half a box of Chinese sausages, which will be a delicious dish after being steamed.
Looking at the table full of delicious food, everyone almost forgot that it was the end of the world.
Just as everyone was getting ready to eat, the sound of fireworks from inside the base resounded through the night sky.
Hearing the long-lost sound of fireworks, everyone's face showed a look of nostalgia.
He stood up from his seat and went outside to the balcony.
After the fireworks exploded in the sky, the brilliant colors almost made many people's eyes tear up.
Everyone in the entire base could hear the sound of fireworks.
Without exception, everyone opened the window or stood on the balcony, looking up at the bright colors blooming in the night sky.
"Mom, it's so beautiful!"
Lei Yuhang is still young, and he almost forgot what fireworks look like.
Wu Tingfang touched her son's head and held him in her arms.
The children of their generation are all miserable. They have not even had a few years of peace to enjoy before they have to struggle in the apocalypse.
The fireworks lasted for several minutes before they stopped.
Everyone returned to their seats and started eating the New Year's Eve dinner.
The food was plentiful and since we were all familiar with each other, we could all eat to our heart’s content.
Qin Qinghai glanced at the people at the table with a satisfied smile on his face.
So this is what it feels like to have someone accompany you for New Year’s Eve dinner.
Qin Qinghai is actually an orphan. No one knows how much hardship an orphan has to endure to pursue a career in dance.
Because he was used to it, he didn't feel anything about celebrating holidays and the New Year alone.
It’s just a meal. It doesn’t matter how you eat it or who you eat with.
But now that he has so many friends around him, he feels it’s pretty good.
After the New Year’s Eve dinner, Han Ying took the cake out of the refrigerator.
The original two-layer cake looked a bit ugly because the top layer was gone.
However, not only did everyone not dislike it, but they were also looking forward to it.
Lei Yuhang's big, bright eyes kept glancing towards the cake.
There was no need for any sense of ceremony. Han Ying simply cut a large piece and gave it to Lei Yuhang.
"Happy birthday, Auntie Xiao Han! I hope you and Uncle Lu Yuan are sweet and happy."
Lei Yuhang happily took the cake and even said something auspicious.
"Little brat, thank you for your good words, we will do it!"
Lu Yuan smiled and raised his hand to touch Lei Yuhang's little head.
Everyone got a big piece of cake.
Han Ying deliberately left a piece behind so that Lei Yuhang could take it home later.
Not long after eating the cake, everyone dispersed. Today, the two of them did not plan to enter the space, and just curled up on the sofa to watch the previous Spring Festival Gala.
Han Ying leaned on Lu Yuan, and Tangyuan lay at her feet.
In the past, in peacetime, people would hope that the new year would be better and better, but the two people who had foresight knew that the new year would be very bad.
The Spring Festival Gala was very long. When the two of them had only watched it for an hour, Lu Yuan's cell phone next to him rang.
I picked up the phone and saw that the caller was Gu Yuanping.
Not knowing what the deputy base commander wanted to talk to them about, Lu Yuan picked up the phone.
"Xiao Lu, I'm almost at your villa, come and open the door."
Gu Yuanping's words left Han Ying and Lu Yuan somewhat confused.
Why do they feel that this deputy base commander seems a little sneaky?
Lu Yuan went downstairs to open the door, and Gu Yuanping had just walked outside the wall.
"Let's talk inside."
Before Lu Yuan could say anything, Gu Yuanping spoke first.
Han Ying put away all the things that shouldn't be there, and then went downstairs.
There is a reception room downstairs, so Gu Yuanping was entertained directly downstairs.
Han Ying brought him a bottle of water. Gu Yuanping took it, opened it and gulped down half of it.
He had rushed all the way here from home and was indeed dying of thirst.
"Deputy Base Commander, why are you here at this time?"
It's already past three o'clock, and it will be dawn in more than an hour.
"I'm sure you all heard the gunfire last night. A batch of medicines were lost at the base. I want to borrow something from you."
Gu Yuanping turned his gaze to the dog curled up at Han Ying's feet.
"I used to train military dogs, and your dog is no worse than a military dog. Can you let it do me a favor? I'll take care of its food for a year!"
I had no choice but to come to them to borrow the dog.
The theft of medicines from the warehouse this time was clearly a case of thieves letting the military dogs do the work, which might alert the enemy.
If they don't take this opportunity to pull out the whole ball of thread, they will be very passive in the future.
"If you want to use my dog, we have the right to know the inside story, right?"
Han Ying stroked Tangyuan's dog head.
Take care of Tangyuan’s food for a year?
Not to mention anything else, can you afford to provide it with the fruit it must eat at every meal?
"I suspect that the theft in the warehouse was caused by someone stealing from the warehouse. The top management of the base colluded with some people hiding in the dark."
"I already know who this person is, but those who are hiding in the dark must also be exposed."
The other party obviously had a lot of guns in his hands.
If the gun is in the hands of someone with good intentions, it doesn't matter. After all, who doesn't want to save their life in this world?
But what if it is placed in the hands of those who do evil everywhere?
Now only a few boxes of medicines have been lost, but it is hard to say what these people will do in the future.
"I can let Tangyuan help you, but I have one condition."
Ever since Tangyuan ate the mutated kumquat, even Lu Yuan couldn't defeat it without using weapons.
Hearing, sense of smell, etc. have also improved a lot, which they have verified many times in space recently.
"What conditions?"
Gu Yuanping knew that it would not be so easy to borrow a dog, but he would agree to the conditions as long as they were not too exaggerated.
"I haven't thought about it yet. Can I bring it up later? You can rest assured that it won't be a murder or arson."
Han Ying and her friends don’t need anything for the time being. They already have a house and are not short of material points.
I really can’t think of any conditions to propose for now, but I can owe it for now.
Ask for it when you need it.
