Chapter 217 [Host, are you planning to go to the scene? ]
Huo Lang has already been stationed at the front line of flood control and will go out to carry out his mission tomorrow morning.
Under the high embankment by the lake in the disaster area, there are military green tents. The lights are on all night to dispel the darkness. Many soldiers are filling sandbags overnight to prepare for tomorrow's flood control.
Huo Jianguo called the combat command center and asked someone to find Huo Lang. It took some time and he waited for more than ten minutes before he was able to get in touch with him.
The phone signal was not very good. Amid the hissing sound of the electric current, Huo Lang was silent for a full minute after listening to what Huo Yan relayed.
But within a minute, his fake laughter came from the other end of the microphone: "Mom and Dad, big brother, little sister... In fact, before we came here, 32 soldiers had already sacrificed their lives on the front line."
"They all died while carrying out their missions and rescuing civilians. Most of them were washed away by the flood and didn't know whether they were dead or alive... Although my death was unique, it was definitely not an exception and was not new at all."
"I don't know if others would go if they knew they would die on the mission tomorrow, but I know I will go!"
"I'm already here, I can't be a deserter!"
"During the Anti-Japanese War, when the hero was holding a pack of dynamite to blow up the bunker, did he think he could survive? No, he was definitely fighting with the intention of dying!" Huo Lang smiled, but his voice was choked with sobs as he said firmly, "The only thing that bothers me is that I think 3,000 points is really too much to save me, too much..."
He wanted to survive, but he felt that using 3,000 points to save himself was not cost-effective.
With so many points, how many good things that benefit the country and the people can be exchanged for? Maybe they can be put to greater use in the future?
Is he really worthy?
Is it really worth it?
"Don't think too much." Huo Yan said in a deep voice, "We respect your choice, leave the rest to us."
"elder brother……"
"Take care of yourself." Huo Yan paused and said seriously, "I rarely praised you before, but now I want to tell you: you are very good, and we are proud of you!"
Huo Lang sniffed and said forcefully, “Yeah!”
Huo Jianguo rubbed his face vigorously: "You have grown up, kid! Your brother is right, we are all proud of you, there is no coward in our Huo family!"
Chen Yuxiang didn't say anything, because she was covering her mouth with tears streaming down her face. She didn't want her crying to disturb her son sitting opposite her, for fear of causing him pressure.
Huo Xiang's eyes were full of shame. She felt that she was the worst person in the family, but there was also a desire to refuse to admit defeat that sprouted and took root in her heart.
Huo Yan patted his sister's shoulder again, silently comforting her.
After the call was hung up, Huo Lang's attitude was very clear. He would continue with tomorrow's flood fighting mission.
The Huo family was not unconcerned about him, but if they stopped him, how could they watch other people's children go to the front line with peace of mind? All they could do was to remind Huo Lang to be careful and do his best to avoid death.
As for the rest…
"You and Lingyu will take care of the points issue." Huo Jianguo instructed Huo Yan, and after a pause, he added, "We...we can't just watch your brother..."
At the end, he clenched his fists and sighed deeply.
"I understand." Huo Yan nodded.
…
Which is more important, 3,000 points or Huo Lang's life?
For Su Lingyu, there is no need to choose at all.
Of course it’s the integral…well, it’s Holland.
Even though that guy was a little bit stupid, a little bit jumpy, and a little bit husky... he was still a good person. Knowing that he would get into trouble, she couldn't just watch him lose his life.
Su Lingyu finished her shower and came out of the bathroom with a hot and humid body. While wiping her wet hair, she said to the system: [Even if I spend a lot of points, Huo Lang is more important.]
[I didn't save him because I couldn't bear to give up the points. I will feel guilty for the rest of my life, okay? ]
[If for no other reason than to not let my little remaining conscience feel uneasy, I will be generous for once.]
[By the way, Xiao Tongzi, I have a task for you.]
[Please calculate how many soldiers fighting on the front line of flood control will die from their injuries. Please help me figure out a plan to make the best use of the points. I want to save the lives of these soldiers! ]
[Not only Huo Lang, I hope every one of them is safe and sound! ]
The system exclaimed: [Wow, host! ]
[We are also earning merit points, right? ]
Su Lingyu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: [Yes! ]
Huo Yan walked into the room and happened to hear the conversation between the person and the system. His rapidly thinking brain suddenly became clear and a smile appeared in his calm eyes.
They don't have to worry about what they are worried about.
Even better than the best-case scenario expected.
At this time, the system asked again: [Host, are you planning to go to the scene of the flood rescue? ]
Su Lingyu asked back: [Hmm? What?]
The system said: [Go to Huo Lang and fight the flood with him.]
[If you don't go, we can't use the super antibiotics and other supplies we have redeemed for Holland and other injured soldiers. The distance is too far to select the target.]
Huo Yanfeng's eyes darkened and he subconsciously looked at Su Lingyu who was wiping her hair.
Su Lingyu paused in her hair-wiping motion, and said after two seconds: [Then go ahead.]
[Just... what excuse can you give? ]
She was a little distressed.
The system suddenly had an idea and gave a random suggestion: [Host, do you still remember Wang Zheyuan, your first love? He is studying in Funan. Otherwise, why did you say you missed him and wanted to go over? ]
[If I use this excuse, I can just piss off Huo Yan to death! Haha! ]
Su Lingyu: [……]
Huo Yan: “……?!”
Su Lingyu: [That’s a good idea, don’t make it next time. ]
The system laughed and said coquettishly: [Okay, I know you like Huo Yan the most! I was just joking!]
[I can't think of any good ideas, I can only rely on the host. 】
Huo Yan: “…”
My ears feel inexplicably hot.
Su Lingyu pondered for a moment: [The disaster area must be short of medical care and medicine. Why don’t I just suggest that Dean Hao organize a team of volunteers to go over and provide support.]
[This way, I can use my job to redeem the points for supplies.]
The system immediately responded: [The host is great, the host is the smartest! ]
After talking to the system, Su Lingyu looked up and saw Huo Yan standing at the door.
She paused while wiping her hair, blinked her charming and beautiful almond eyes, and waved at him: "I don't want to move anymore, help me wipe my hair."
Huo Yan strode up to her and said with a slow smile, "Okay."
He picked her up by the waist and strode towards the bed.
The night was still long, and he could not only help her dry her hair, but also try his best to serve her in other areas.
…
That night.
Su Lingyu's plan to go to the front line to fight the flood was quickly reported by the Huo family.
However, after receiving this message, the people in power were in a dilemma.
