Mr. Ning has been missing for a full month, and the entire empire is in a state of extreme tension, with everyone waiting for news from the capital.
Meanwhile, Han Junche and his group in the capital were also waiting.
Everyone's peaceful life was disrupted. Chunli, who was staying at home and enjoying her pregnancy, would often call Chixia to ask if she had any news about the rescue team and Mr. Ning.
After receiving no answer, Chunli sighed and said, "Actually, we are already luckier than most people. When the apocalypse came, most people became zombies. We were lucky not to be infected, and we even gained superpowers. While many superpowered people are worried about food, clothing, shelter and transportation, I have never had to worry about such things because I have latched onto you, Sister Chi. I have not even encountered real danger many times."
"Not to mention, after the inhibitor was successfully developed, we became someone we had to look up to before the apocalypse. Sister Chi, my life has been worth it, really."
Chi Xia felt a lump in her throat, and asked in a low voice, "What do you want to say?"
Chunli took a deep breath and slowly exhaled before saying, "Sister Chi, I just want to tell you that the Empire belongs to all of us. The reason we are living comfortably now is because Mr. Ning and the others are carrying the burden for us. I heard Liu Daniu talk to me that if Mr. Ning's operation fails this time, the aliens will definitely discover that the immune people are in the Empire."
"If aliens launch an apocalypse against Earth, they won't treat us like human beings. Don't believe the nonsense that handing over immune individuals will spare us. We're all in this together, including the baby in my belly. If aliens really come, I'd rather fight them to the death."
Chi Xia was silent for a while before speaking: "What are you thinking? No matter what we do, we won't let a pregnant woman like you charge into battle. Does the empire have no one else? Take good care of yourself and have a peaceful baby. Your brother-in-law and I will take care of everything else."
Hearing this, Chunli became a little anxious: "I'm just afraid that you'll all shoulder everything, especially brother-in-law!"
"Alright, I have to hang up now." Chi Xia interrupted her, saying, "I still maintain that taking good care of your pregnancy is more important than anything else. Don't cause any trouble."
Chunli had no choice but to hum in agreement and hang up the phone.
Chi Xia hung up the phone and sat silently in her office, lost in thought.
These days, Han Junche has been coming home later and later, sometimes not until two or three in the morning.
In fact, he was under more pressure than anyone else. Now that the empire was in a state of war preparedness, he had to prepare for war on one hand, and wait for news from Mr. Ning on the other.
Most importantly, based on her understanding of him, although he had complained about being busy with work and wanting to find a place to live in seclusion, and often talked about his family, she knew that if it was possible to sacrifice him to save the empire and even everyone on Earth, he would definitely go without hesitation.
Chi Xia has her own ideas.
The Blue Star people are looking for immune individuals. Although she is not one, she still has the two explosions given to her by Xiao Tong.
Perhaps, no one needs to sacrifice themselves; she could simply go to the alien base, blow up the aliens, and that would be the end of it all.
However, she said that even if Han Junche believed her ability to exist outside of this world, he would not agree to let her take the risk.
Moreover, others would definitely think she was talking nonsense.
Perhaps she should have gone alone from the beginning, but then again, the empire is not what it was before the apocalypse, and the United States is far away on the other side of the planet. She simply couldn't go alone.
Moreover, although her explosion is powerful, within the blast radius, no other living thing besides herself will survive.
The aliens are hateful, but William and his team are innocent.
