Mou Xuan's heart tightened, and an ominous premonition arose.
"Calm down and speak slowly. What did you see?"
"I... I saw a figure that looked very much like... very much like... Zhao Yu!" The patrolman finally said the name.
Zhao Yu, their former partner in battle, was besieged by mutant creatures during an outbound mission while trying to cover everyone's retreat. Everyone thought he had died.
This name means a painful memory to everyone in the league.
Mou Xuan's brain was working rapidly, and he first wondered if the patrolman had seen it wrong.
After all, the news of Zhao Yu’s sacrifice was confirmed by almost all the team members present, and the possibility of survival was very slim.

He carefully asked the patrolman: "Are you sure you saw Zhao Yu? Are you seeing things?"
The patrolman answered affirmatively: "Although the distance is a bit far, I am sure it is him! The way he walked and the coat he was wearing, I remember them clearly! There is no mistake!"
Mou Xuan realized that the seriousness of the matter was beyond his expectations.

These questions were like a fog, shrouding his mind.

He decided to go and see for himself to solve the mystery.
He took a deep breath, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and walked quickly towards the gate of the base, with Chen Yao following closely behind.
New challenges and the return of old friends, what kind of changes will this bring?
