Chapter 201 Tuanbao, Mommy Misses You So Much
As soon as Jiang Xu put down the phone, her colleague asked her to help.
She stood up and happened to meet Qin Zifei's eyes.
Qin Zifei had been in another treatment center before, but that place was occupied by rebels two days ago, so he was transferred here urgently.
Because they were busy with work, they just nodded to each other when they saw each other.
Jiang Xu was somewhat embarrassed when she saw him.
Before going abroad, he suddenly confessed his love to her, which really scared her.
But he was drunk at the time, so I don’t know if he still remembers it.
"Brother, thank you for your hard work."
After a brief moment of embarrassment, Jiang Xu said with a smile.
Qin Zifei looked calm and patted her shoulder: "It's not hard, keep going. By the way, take precautions."
Jiang Xu was busy until late at night before she lay down on the simple single bed.
Looking at the tent above his head, with the miserable conditions of the infected people in his mind, Jiang Xu couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
She opened her phone and looked through the photos.
She took a lot of photos of Tuanbao, including one of him eating with his cheeks puffed up and looking so cute.
And when he was doing his homework, his eyelids drooped, his eyelashes were very long and each one distinct, just like He Yanting's expression when he was working.
When he was sleeping, his hands were raised above his head, and his little face was white with a hint of pink, and you could almost smell the fragrance of milk through the photo.
Looking at that cute face, Jiang Xu's tense nerves gradually relaxed.
With a casual swipe, the next picture is a family photo that Chi Xiaoli took of the three of them at Tuanbao’s birthday party.
She and He Yanting kissed Tuanbao on the face from the left and right.
Tuanbao smiled shyly, but the joy in his eyes was hard to hide.
Jiang Xu's heart was pounding as he looked at the vast sky outside through the crack in the tent.
Tuanbao, mom really misses you.
She fell asleep holding her cell phone.
She had a beautiful dream.
In the dream, they successfully developed a vaccine and contained the virus. When they returned to China, Tuanbao threw himself into her arms and said loudly, "Mom, Tuanbao is proud of you."
She shed tears of happiness.
until--
The sharp sound of gunfire woke her up.
She sat up and found that it was still dark outside, so she didn't dare go out rashly.
"Ginger."
Qin Zifei came to him and said, "The rebels are coming. We must move our position."
Jiang Xu opened her mouth, but before she could react, Qin Zifei turned and left, and she subconsciously followed him.
The next half hour could only be described as chaos.
Their team consisted of fifteen people. The men were responsible for carrying the equipment, while the women were responsible for sorting out the large amount of experimental data. They finally managed to put all the important supplies into the car before the rebels arrived.
It was not until noon that they arrived at the next resettlement site.
There was an even more rudimentary hospital with simple tents set up in the open space outside, and hundreds of infected patients lying inside.
Only a dozen doctors and nurses were busy there.
After everyone discussed it, they decided that since they couldn't invest in research now, and just waiting would be a waste of time, they put on protective clothing and worked together to help treat the patients.
This busy work lasted until late at night.
It was not until two colleagues fainted that the old professor forced everyone to rest.
After disinfection, Jiang Xu took off his protective suit, and his hands were white from being soaked in sweat.
Suddenly remembering something, she took out her cell phone and found that it had run out of battery.
Fortunately, the call came an hour ago. She quickly charged her phone and found that there were more than 20 missed calls, all from He Yanting.
He also sent a lot of messages.
Are you tired today?
An hour later.
Are you busy?
Three hours later.
【Ruanruan, reply to me when you see it】
Seven hours later.
【See and reply immediately】
He stopped sending messages after that, and the last call he made was also at that time.
Jiang Xu thought he was busy with work, so she replied: [I am safe, don’t worry]
Because electricity is in short supply here and no one knows when the power outage will occur, Jiang Xu fully charged his phone and turned it off.
the next day.
The old professor organized a meeting, which also included two government army officers.
After listening to their introduction, Jiang Xu realized the severity of the current situation.
They were conquered on all sides by the rebels.
This area has become an isolated island with a severe shortage of supplies. The only remaining government army is still trying to break out.
The old professor suggested that he personally lead people to negotiate.
After all, developing a vaccine concerns everyone's safety, and everyone thought it was feasible.
For safety reasons, the old professor took two male researchers to negotiate, one of whom was Qin Zifei.
Before leaving, Jiang Xu couldn't help but worry and told Qin Zifei: "Brother, be careful."
Qin Zifei smiled: "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
After they set off, everyone waited anxiously.
They didn't come back until it was almost dark.
Jiang Xu was extremely worried, fearing that they would never come back, so he and his colleagues hurried forward to ask.
The old professor happily announced, "They agreed to let us evacuate!"
Considering that there are still many patients here but all medicines have been exhausted, everyone decided to take away some patients with milder conditions and greater chances of survival.
night.
It was pitch black all around, with only the chirping of insects in the bushes.
The rebels were given only two hours to evacuate.
Everyone packed up in a hurry and set off in a hurry.
Jiang Xu was carrying heavy experimental materials and rushing along the rugged and muddy road. The weak flashlight was almost useless and everyone fell more than once.
In the stuffy environment, they were wearing airtight protective clothing and were soaked all over after a while.
After walking for about an hour and passing a bridge, the government soldiers told everyone: "Just a little longer and you'll be safe!"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and at this moment——
Bang!
A few harsh noises.
After this period of time, everyone became very familiar with this voice.
"It's a gun, get down!"
Someone shouted and everyone got down.
Then a group of people rushed out from under the bridge, shouting loudly in the local language.
One of the colleagues who knew the local language suddenly lost his expression and said, "Oh no! It's the rebels! We've been tricked."
As soon as he finished speaking, the government forces shouted at them and then a melee broke out with the rebels.
Everyone was in chaos and fled in all directions.
In a panic, someone grabbed Jiang Xu's arm and pulled her back.
Jiang Xu vaguely recognized that the other person was Qin Zifei.
But before they ran off the bridge, a gunshot was suddenly heard from behind and Qin Zifei fell to the ground.
Jiang Xu was shocked and stopped to look at him.
"Leave me alone, run!"
Qin Zifei roared through the mask.
Jiang Xu shook her head and was about to check his injuries when several rebels caught up and surrounded her.
Then they were caught, put in a pickup truck, and taken away.
After the fierce conflict, there was a lot of debris and blood on the ground.
An hour later.
Three powerful off-road vehicles were parked on the bridge.
The car opened and a tall and long-legged man walked out of the middle car.
The driver of the car in front checked the surroundings, trotted back, and respectfully reported to the man, "Mr. He, it looks like there was a fierce confrontation here. There's blood on the ground. It should have happened within an hour."
There was no expression on the man's handsome face, and his tightly pursed thin lips slowly opened.
"Find them, as soon as possible."
