Everyone knew in their hearts that this operation was full of dangers, the internal melee in Xili Country was intensifying, and a war between government forces and anti-government forces was imminent. Once traffic was blocked, they themselves might not be able to protect themselves, let alone bringing their compatriots back.
But this is an order and a mission, and it is not up to them.
Chen Ning was the first to raise her hand to sign up without any hesitation. Teacher Zhang looked at her and was not surprised by her choice.
But as the commander-in-chief of this operation, he said: "In view of the special nature of this operation, we are going to select capable troops. They must have comrades with rich work experience, not just enthusiasm. Enthusiasm will not save your lives." .”
"Think about it before you sign up."
He glanced seriously at the people below. Under his gaze, many colleagues raised their hands one after another. Chen Ning never lowered his hand and was very firm.
Teacher Zhang called the names one by one and finally said:
"Go back and wait for orders, ready to go at any time."
"The meeting is dismissed."
After saying that, the group of people strode out of the conference room.
Chen Ninghui came out of the conference room and sent a message to Song Jingye telling her that she was going to Xili Country.
Song Jingye happened to have not yet entered the mountain. When he saw her message, he frowned and called: "Did the higher ups arrange for you to go?"
"No, I applied for it myself."
"Do you know how chaotic the situation in Xili Country is now? And do you know why their anti-government forces and thugs target Chinese citizens? Because our two countries have always had a very deep cooperative relationship, and they are now the ones who smashed and hijacked us. , is threatening, demonstrating, and trying to gain the support of our country. If you go there now, it is tantamount to throwing yourself into a trap." Song Jingye has also been paying close attention to the situation in Xili Country in the past few days. When he heard that she was going, he was worried. .
"Uncle." Chen Ning interrupted him.
Song Jingye held the phone and listened.
"I'm not going on a trip." Her voice was soft and gentle, but firm, which brought Song Jingye back from his thoughts. He had not considered her work at all just now, and was only discussing it from the perspective of his family, so he fell silent.
Chen Ninghui continued: "My recent job is to answer the phone and send the information of registered missing persons to the Xili China Pavilion. Every time I answer a call, I can feel the anxiety, despair, and... Their trust in us. Many of them cried bitterly and begged us to help contact their families. It seemed that this phone call was the only life-saving straw they could grasp."
"Although I am just a small employee, I don't want to let down this trust and this job."
"And Teacher Zhang is the commander-in-chief of this operation, and I must fully support his work."
Chen Ning took a breath and finished explaining why she signed up.
Song Jingye remained silent, knowing that she was right. Of course he didn't want her to go as a family member, but as a member of the family, this was her mission.
After a while, he compromised and just asked: "Are you afraid?"
Chen Ning replied truthfully: "A little scared, but more nervous."
I don’t know what we are about to face, whether we can successfully bring over 10,000 people back.
