When Gao Lie walked to the bathroom, the smile on his face gradually dissipated. He felt that teasing Xiaoxue could become an important spice for him to adjust his family life. He was very emotional and cherished it because he was the only one who knew best about Xiaoxue.
To have the progress and smile she has today, what did she sacrifice for it?
After washing his hands, Gao Lie touched the cigarette as a habit. His fingers had already been clasped around the hard edge of the box. When he was about to take it out, he suddenly thought of the oath he had just made on the mountain. He couldn't help but grinned helplessly, "
Do you want her to punish you? Gao Lie, you are so worthless!"
He still took out his cigarette case and lighter, but his target was the trash can.
Just as he was about to go back to find her, his phone rang. He took it out and saw that the display on the screen was blank.
His heart sank involuntarily, he stopped smiling, looked around cautiously, and quickly walked towards the courtyard inside the hotel.
"Hello, I'm Gao Lie." He vaguely guessed who it was.
Sure enough, a familiar sound of throat clearing came from the microphone to the eardrums, "I won't introduce myself. Haha, Comrade Gao Lie's honeymoon trip was pleasant?"
Conway.
Who else but him would dare to talk to him in such a teasing tone, and also use a top-secret line...
Gao Lie hummed as an answer.
His mood did not relax following Conway's teasing, but instead showed signs of tightening.
He knew Conway so well that if it wasn't a big deal, he wouldn't have chosen to call him at this time.
"I know you and Qin Mo are together, right?" Conway said.
Gao Lie hummed again, and then asked in a faint tone: "Is there anyone in this world that you, Conway, can't find?" If Lieutenant Colonel Kang Da really wanted to find someone, it would really take him a minute.
But it all depends on whether he is willing to suffer from this...
Conway smacked his lips twice to express his agreement with Gao Lie's words.
"Stop beating around the bush, say something quickly and fart quickly!" Gao Lie was thinking about the girl outside and didn't want her to wait too long.
Conway then made two more noises to express his dissatisfaction with him, and then suddenly changed his tone and said four words in a low voice: "The action is cancelled!"
Action canceled!!
Gao Lie was stunned.
You must know that there have been times in the past when operational missions were temporarily canceled, but the probability of this was very rare, similar to the probability of a cannonball not firing. After all, a mission or an action involves all aspects. If it is canceled, the subsequent workload may be
Much more onerous than a simple operational mission...
What's more, such a strictly confidential purge operation has been raised to the national level. A large-scale operation that implicated the military, local authorities, and even the interests of other countries was suddenly cancelled.
Retreating before the formation has always been a taboo for military strategists.
It is impossible for Conway not to know, and it is even less possible for Commander Cao Ruojin not to know how serious the consequences of canceling the operation are. In the past few dozen hours, something major enough to affect the entire battle must have happened.
In fact, he talks to the political commissar on the phone every day to learn about Tianying's situation. Moreover, he also pays attention to major news events on TV and the Internet every day, especially the news about Qinghe. He will solve even a small injury case.
I stared at it for half a day.
No exception.
It seemed like the calm before the storm. He felt vaguely uneasy these days. He didn't expect that an accident would really happen, or would it be a big accident...
"What are the arrangements for the next step?" The time and occasion were both wrong. Gao Lie didn't ask anything else. What he cared about was the next arrangement.
"Wait." Conway said only one word.
Gao Lie was startled, and he asked tentatively in a low voice: "Is there any follow-up?"
"Yes. It's just that the operation on the 18th was cancelled, and the clearance team is still there." Conway explained.
Gao Lie closed his eyes and rubbed the center of his eyebrows that suddenly became painful, "Okay. I understand."
There's really nothing they can do except wait. But as long as the cleanup team is still there, there is still hope of action.
"Let's talk more specifically. Ariel... you... you..." Because he was too familiar with him, Conway always spoke to him carelessly and informally, but for some reason today, he hesitated several times, which made people suspicious.
..
"Conway, have you changed your gender?! Why do you act like a girl, always half-talking your words! You are so weak!" Feeling that Gao Lie was being uncivilized again, Conway quickly answered: "Hey! You
Don’t curse me! My Mengmeng even pointed at me to give her ‘sexual happiness’ for the rest of her life! It’s not like you, who spend all day indulging in the gentle countryside, polishing off your family, country and career!”
"Conway!" Gao Lie called him coldly.
Conway chuckled twice, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. As the leader of the suppression team, I will formally inform you that you will return to the team before twelve o'clock tomorrow night."
Tomorrow night? Twelve o'clock?
Gao Lie only heard a buzzing sound in his head, and something exploded in his head.
My thoughts are very messy, and many routes and plans that have already been formed seem to be entangled together and become a mess...
He counted the time and how to make full use of every minute and every second in order to minimize regrets.
"Can't it be extended for one day?" Gao Lie was a little annoyed.
Conway sighed, was silent for a while, and then said: "I'm sorry, Ariel, I know how important the next forty-eight hours are to you, but you and I are both soldiers and understand the responsibilities on our shoulders. So, Ariel
Lie, there is no room for negotiation on this matter. Tomorrow night at twelve o'clock, I will give you the maximum tolerance. No matter whether you accept it or not, whether you want to listen or not, I will be a bad person for once. Ariel, you
The vacation is really over!" Conway said with a firm heart.
Next, after a silence that made even Conway feel oppressive and frightened, he responded in a high and low voice: "Okay."
Hearing the sound of the phone hanging up, Conway, who was far away in a secret military facility in Beijing, raised his lips and smiled helplessly, "The Gao family has such a bad temper! I see, only Xiaoxue in the world can cure you!"
After putting down the phone, Conway walked directly outside and knocked on the special desk filled with computers.
"Yao Xiaojing, how's your fiddling going? Have you found a way to crack it?"
The nervous and busy young woman, buried in front of three computers, pushed away Conway's hand on the table without even raising her eyelids, "Are you bothering me? How many times have I asked!"
Conway touched his nose, leaned on the table angrily, and said: "I can tell you, if you can't crack it today, you will have to go to Chengdu tomorrow."
"Just go." Yao Xiaojing rolled her eyes and choked him.
"Oh, look, look, look, what a selfless and dedicated heroine! It's just... it's a pity... it's a pity that our comrade Mu Feng can't go..." Kangwei deeply understood Yao Xiaojing's weakness.
Just mentioning those two words will definitely make this little goblin surrender...
