Qian Feng asked, "How's it going outside now?"
Political Commissar Nan said, "The typhoon on our island was quite severe. The only area that suffered less damage was our family compound."
Qian Feng nodded and said, "It seems that our campsite location is still the best!"
Commissar Nan nodded and said, "However, some residents on the island have suffered more severe damage."
Qian Feng nodded and said, "There's nothing we can do about it. Our camp has some bricks to build houses, but theirs are all made of wood, which offers no protection against typhoons."
Political Commissar Nan nodded and said, "Yes, there have been injuries, but thankfully the typhoon has passed."
Upon hearing that someone was injured, Qian Duoduo immediately asked, "Political Commissar Nan, who is injured?"
Commissar Nan said, "Several fishermen's homes were damaged, and two boats were even blown away by the typhoon. Overall, the losses were huge."
Upon hearing this, Qian Duoduo's heart skipped a beat. She looked at Political Commissar Nan and said, "Can I go out and take a look?"
Political Commissar Nan said, "The island is a bit chaotic right now. It's best not to go out."
Qian Duoduo paused for a moment, then said, "Political Commissar Nan, I'm a little worried about Yu Hongze and the others. They are my friends, and I'm concerned about them."
Political Commissar Nan glanced at Qian Feng, and seeing him nod, he said, "Alright, then be careful."
Qian Duoduo immediately smiled and said to Political Commissar Nan, "Thank you, Commissar. I'll go prepare first, and then I'll go see everyone. You all chat first!"
Qian Duoduo spoke with Professor Yuan first, then took some things from her home and left. Holding an umbrella, she walked slowly to Yu Dajia's house. She saw the dilapidated house, Yu Da's pale face, and Yu Dan's mother's lifeless expression. Yu Hongze, Yu Zai, and Xiao Yu all had red eyes.
When Yu Hongze saw Qian Duoduo walking over, his eyes immediately reddened, but he stubbornly refused to let the tears fall.
Qian Duoduo reached out and patted Yu Hongze's head, saying, "I've heard about it all along the way. We never expected something like this. The typhoon was really too strong."
Upon hearing Qian Duoduo's words, Yu Hongze could no longer hold back his tears, which streamed down his face.
Little Fish hugged Qian Duoduo's leg and burst into tears: "Sister Duoduo, our family's boat is gone, and our dream of going to school is shattered."
Perhaps hearing his daughter's cries, Yu Da turned around, saw Qian Duoduo, and gave a helpless smile: "Comrade Qian."
Qian Duoduo said, "This typhoon was indeed very strong. The damage on the island was severe."
Yu Da said, "Yes, our livelihood is gone. The children said they wanted to study hard and see the great mountains and rivers of China, but now, everything is gone!"
Qian Duoduo patted Yu Da on the shoulder and comforted him, "Brother Yu, don't be discouraged. As long as you're still alive, anything is possible."
Yu Da raised his head, a hint of confusion in his eyes: "Is there really still a chance?"
Qian Duoduo nodded firmly: "Uncle Yu, the current difficulties are only temporary. My brother and the others are still on this island. They will work with you to find a way to get through this. Even if you don't have a boat, you still have your hands. If you can't fish, you can farm."
At this moment, Professor Yuan, accompanied by Liang Kun, came over. Looking at the damaged houses, he felt a pang of sorrow: "Uncle Yu, don't be sad. We will do our best to help you rebuild your homes."
Yu Da was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes. He held Professor Yuan's hand tightly and said, "Thank you, thank you all!"
Qian Duoduo looked at Yu Hongze and Xiaoyu and encouraged them, "You must persevere in your dreams. Studying is the way to change your destiny. I will work with Professor Yuan to find a way to help you rebuild your homes."
Yu Hongze and Xiaoyu wiped away their tears and nodded heavily.
Yu Da saw Political Commissar Nan and the soldiers following closely behind. After they arrived, they began to help the villagers clean up the village. The nearby villagers also started to get busy. Yu Hongze watched the soldiers move the trees and stones. He also put on his glasses, called his friends, and followed behind the soldiers, doing what he could.
Qian Duoduo came to Professor Yuan's side and whispered, "Teacher, it seems that the typhoon in the former South Island is really quite powerful."
Professor Yuan watched the soldiers and villagers cleaning up the mess and said, "Although the typhoon was very powerful, this place still has its advantages. You see, during typhoon season, we really can't grow anything. But we have an advantage here: the temperature is constant, so we can grow crops all year round except during typhoon season. We also discovered a freshwater lake on the mountaintop, which we can utilize as well."
Qian Duoduo nodded, agreeing with the teacher's analysis. She said, "Teacher, after this typhoon, I want to go to the freshwater lake in the mountains to collect some water samples to see if the water quality has changed."
Professor Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Your idea is good, but the situation on the mountain is unclear and there are still dangers."
Qian Duoduo thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll ask my brother." Actually, she wanted to take Bai Yu with her, since she didn't want others to know about Bai Yu's existence. She would have an excuse to let Bai Yu appear after they returned to Harbin. That way, it would be more reasonable.
Professor Yuan nodded when he heard Qian Duoduo's words. After all, Qian Feng was her brother, and he certainly couldn't let anything happen to her.
The next day, Qian Duoduo went into the dense forest alone. Not long after, he released Bai Yu. As soon as Bai Yu appeared and saw the mess, it jumped onto Qian Duoduo's shoulder and spoke in human language: "Meow! What happened here? Were we robbed? Meow~(⊙_⊙)?"
Qian Duoduo said, "This wasn't caused by the typhoon."
Bai Yu: "Meow! When we were in the compound, the typhoon didn't feel that strong. I just hate that it always rains. Meow~ (「▼皿▼)"
Qian Duoduo: "The wind is stronger and more severe here."
Bai Yu: "Meow! Did you do something to the compound? I sensed an energy, and I really like it! Meow~(≧?≦)?"
Qian Duoduo's heart skipped a beat, but she didn't continue the topic. She just walked quickly towards the top of the mountain. Some of the thinner trees on the mountain had fallen, which slowed her uphill speed considerably. Qian Duoduo said, "This road is too difficult. How long will it take to get to the top?"
Bai Yu: "Meow! If you can find that energy, I can help you get up the mountain quickly. Meow~(≧?≦)?"
Qian Duoduo snorted, wondering if she was being mocked. This cat was a bit too cunning!
