Lu Yu was thinking about the simulated battle for next year when suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps broke the quiet of the night. Lu Yu sat up alertly.
Qin Wan was also startled and sat up.
To be honest, she was already awakened when she heard hurried footsteps in the distance, but she didn't want to appear more ferocious than Lu Yu, so she endured it.
Seeing that Qin Wan had woken up, Lu Yu patted his shoulder gently and said, "Don't move. I think something happened in the team. Wait here for me. I'll be back as soon as I'm done with the trouble."
After hearing what he said, Qin Wan resisted the urge to get up and said "hmm".
Lu Yu walked to the door. He saw a young soldier running over in a hurry: "Captain Lu, something bad has happened!"
Looking at Xiao Zhan, who was running towards him with a heavy breath and a pale face, Lu Yu suddenly raised his head and looked at him with a sharp gaze: "What's the matter? Why are you so flustered?"
The young soldier stopped and gasped, "Li... Commander Li's grandson... is missing!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yu's expression instantly became serious.
Commander Li is a veteran in the army and his prestige is quite high.
He devoted his entire life to the army. Sadly, his only son also died heroically in a war defending his country.
Now, the only one who keeps him and his wife company is their eight-year-old grandson. If even this little grandson can be lost in the barracks, then there is no doubt that there must be a spy infiltrating our army.
Thinking of this, Lu Yu's face became very solemn. He realized that this incident was not accidental, but someone did it on purpose.
He walked back to the room, kissed the top of Qin Wan's head, and patted her soothingly: "You go to sleep first, I'll go check."
Head of the group's office.
Captain Li Zhen sat upright and ordered when he saw Lu Yu coming:
"Gather the team immediately, and lead the search yourself!"
The leader's voice was low and firm, with an irresistible majesty.
"yes!"
After hearing the order, Lu Yu immediately turned around and ran to convey it.
Soon after, a search and rescue team composed of elite soldiers was quickly assembled. They looked serious, were well-equipped, and were ready to go into battle at any time.
Lu Yu stood in front of the team, his eyes as firm as steel, as if he had already seen the little life swallowed by the darkness.
He knew that time was running out and that every second could mean the difference between the child's life and death. He took a deep breath and gave the order to set off.
The search and rescue team marched in unison, moving towards an unknown direction, their figures gradually disappearing into the night.
The night deepened, the moonlight obscured by dark clouds, leaving only the faint light of stars shining on the earth. The search and rescue team advanced in the darkness, taking every step cautiously, fearing to miss any clues.
"Everyone, please pay attention. Search every corner carefully and don't miss any suspicious places." Lu Yu reminded as they walked.
The soldiers responded, quickening their pace and expanding their search area. Every corner of the barracks was turned upside down, but they still couldn't find any trace of Commander Li's grandson.
As time went on, the atmosphere became increasingly tense. Lu Yu felt a sense of foreboding. He knew that if the child could not be found, Master Li and his wife would likely suffer a mental breakdown.
That child is the only hope and only root of Commander Li and his wife.
"Search again! Even if we have to dig three feet into the ground, we must find the child!" Lu Yu's voice echoed in the night sky with unquestionable determination.
Just when everyone was extremely anxious, a soldier suddenly shouted: "Captain! There's something going on here!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yu's face became solemn, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes, and he immediately rushed over with several soldiers as fast as the wind.
I saw a well-covered crack in the ground in a remote corner of the military camp. It would be difficult to find it if you didn't observe carefully.
Lu Yu's heart trembled, his brow furrowed, and a sense of foreboding welled up in his heart. He was shocked and confused by the existence of such a secret passage in the army.
When was this passage built? Who built it? And where does it lead?
A series of questions flooded into his mind like a tide, almost drowning him.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner turmoil, and began to consider the possible implications of this mysterious passage. If the enemy used this passage to sneak into the camp, the consequences would be disastrous. They had to find the answer quickly to ensure the safety of their troops.
The entrance to the passage is cleverly covered by a huge stone slab that blends in with the surrounding environment. It would be difficult to find it without a thorough investigation.
Lu Yu stared at the stone slab, his eyes firm and sharp, as if he wanted to see through the secret within the stone slab.
"Open it!"
Lu Yu gave the order in a deep and majestic voice that left no room for doubt.
The soldiers sprang into action.
Two burly soldiers strode forward and tried to lift the stone slab together, but it did not move at all.
Then, two big soldiers came to help, and the four of them worked together, but the stone slab still lay firmly in place.
One of the big soldiers shouted, "This stone is too heavy, two more people come to help!"
Then two more strong soldiers joined in, but even so, the stone slab was not moved at all.
At this time, one of the soldiers couldn't help cursing, "No wonder no one has discovered the tunnel here for so many years! This stone slab is too heavy. Who can move it?"
