Smoke filled the air above the research center, and the transport plane crashed into the woods ahead, billowing smoke and fire rising.
Looking at a large group of terrorists who attacked the ecological research center tied together like rice dumplings, I believe that this battle has indeed been won.
Yes, I believe so.
But despite this, they have lost quite a lot of things, important things, no matter which side they are.
The Ecological Research Center was destroyed like this, most of the data and experimental equipment were damaged, and it was impossible to continue working in this place.
The security guards who were doing their duty faithfully were all seriously injured to varying degrees, and now their injuries are just barely stabilized.
Yesterday I was chatting and laughing with everyone, and a security guard uncle whom everyone was most familiar with passed away without being able to be rescued.
There is an unspeakable sadness in my heart. Other security guard uncles said that he did not pass away with regrets. That security guard uncle was the brother of the first three security guard uncles who died. He was the best brother.
He was left alone, and now he also went to find his three brothers who had passed away.
But even so, I still feel guilty.
I once thought that I was a righteous party, and I naively thought that I could protect everything. But in the end, I was not a righteous party at all, and I could not protect everyone at all. I only acted for my own selfish desires, and I did not hesitate to put my trust in it.
My companions were involved in dangerous situations and risked their lives to achieve what I wanted.
I should have understood earlier, no, I just forgot that from the beginning, I was not that kind of great and selfless person. Everything I did was just simple. I hated to see such sad things happen, regardless of the final result.
No matter what, in the final analysis, it is only for myself.
This is obviously the case, I have done everything I can to follow my own wishes, but why, there is still sadness that cannot be shaken off in my heart.
Sure enough, I still want to protect everything around me and all important things.
But I couldn't do it, couldn't do it, so I was filled with unwillingness, anger, and sadness.
"Hey, Mr. Momonga, are you okay?"
"...Ah, I'm fine."
I lowered my head and saw little Dr. Isali who was pulling on my clothes and looking at me with worried eyes.
"Really? That's great. Mr. Momonga has been silent since just now. Everyone is worried about you."
A smile broke out on little Dr. Isali's cute little face.
Ah...yes, at this point, no matter how much you regret, there is nothing you can do to undo it.
Really, it’s the worst thing I can do to worry everyone and such a cute little Dr. Isali.
"Brother Lian Ye~~!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from not far away. I saw Zod, Barn and a group of people behind them walking towards this direction. The person running at the front, waving and shouting, was my beloved sister.
"Brother Lian Ye! Are you okay? Are you injured somewhere?"
"My dear, why are you here? I'm fine. It's just that my clothes have some holes."
I was surprised when I saw my beloved sister running up to me and looking up at me with a worried look on her face. Zod had clearly told them to stay at the church and wait, and they would rush there as soon as they were done here.
However, I did suffer some injuries at the beginning and was beaten very badly, but now I am fine.
"These boys, after hearing that the battle was over, they didn't listen to me at all and came to see you worriedly. I can't do anything to them."
Zod spread his hands and sighed with a smile.
I think you didn't stop it at all.
However, everyone is worried about me. Really, there is obviously no need to do this, and I will be very embarrassed.
But, really, thank you, Zod, Barn, Love, Dr. Isali, and everyone.
"It's okay, it's all over, everything is over, there's nothing to worry about, I'm here."
The warmth welling up deep in my heart eased the sadness and calmed the anger. I may have lost something, everything I gained from the beginning of coming to this city, but at least I have protected so much.
I have protected so much of the future, and it would be too greedy to continue to ask for more.
Suddenly, I heard many sounds coming from the distance in the night sky that had not yet been lit up. Engines, propellers, and searchlights illuminated the sky over there, and they were rapidly approaching here. There were also sounds of vehicles moving on the ground.
Soon, a large number of fighter planes were seen flying over the sky, as well as the shadows of tanks and chariots appearing around, and soon they surrounded the ecological research center.
Zod frowned and clenched the weapon in his hand. I stopped him and shook my head to signal him to relax and that there was no need to be vigilant.
Because on the camouflage-colored four-propeller single-tail transport aircraft that was gradually approaching in the night sky, I saw a familiar person.
“Boss——, I’m here to pick you up——!”
Hey, it's true. From the voice and tone, you can tell it's that boy Arahito, but you came here with the army, right? As a soldier, is it really okay to call an ordinary civilian boss so openly?
When the transport plane slowly descended here, the lights emitted by the escorting fighter planes made the place as bright as day, and the cold wind whistling by could not move the clear and clear figure that stood still under the light.
shadow.
The sound of propeller rotation and engine covered up the sound of dancing leaves, and Aangren, who was dressed in a military uniform and looked extremely capable, jumped out of the co-pilot seat of the transport plane.
I haven’t seen you for a while, and you seem to have become a lot more powerful.
I'm so happy for you guy.
"Boss! I'm here to pick you up!"
"Ah, I understand, so there's no need to say it a second time."
"The boss is still as cold as ever, hahaha."
This kid, Ara Ren, even though he said this, he smiled so happily that it was impossible to get angry at all.
"Lian Ye, is this your little brother?"
"No, this is the brother I grew up with."
I can understand Zod's confusion, but this guy always likes to call me boss for some reason. In fact, I'm only one year older than him.
"Boss, who is this?"
"Ah, this is a friend I met here. He saved my life and helped me a lot."
"What?! Is that so?"
I saw the extremely surprised expression on Arahito's face, but to be honest, I understand what you are thinking. Is it so strange that I was rescued? Don't think that I am so invincible, I will be hurt too.
"Anyway, thank you for your support during this time, boss. I am Akao Arahito, please give me your advice."
"Ah, you're welcome. This is what you should do as a friend. I'm Kolkozod. Please give me some advice."
Arahito took the initiative to extend his hand, and Zod shook hands with him without hesitation to express friendship. In this way, the two of them could be considered acquainted.
"By the way, boss, how many people have you killed? Wow, isn't this a 'pangolin'? Could it be you, boss?"
Huang Ren looked at the people around me who were tied up and said in surprise.
"pangolin?"
"Ah, that's the guy with his eyes rolling back and foaming at the mouth. He is the right-hand man of a cadre in a very large international criminal organization. He is very powerful. So far, the military has been very troubled by this cunning and tough guy.
The guy who shot the bullet, I didn’t expect to be caught by you, boss. It’s a great achievement to report him to the police.”
Hey, is that guy actually such a famous criminal? No wonder he was so difficult to deal with and almost killed me.
But as a non-soldier, I can’t get rewards from the military even if I perform meritorious service, so it’s better not to think too much about it.
"I won't mention this anymore. The people here are the people I told you about. Can you please escort them to Luo'an Middle City?"
"Well, are they them? It's totally fine. Please get on the plane."
Huang Ren nodded happily.
"Thank you, then please give us a ride."
"It's not a big deal. The boss's friends are my friends. You're welcome. You're welcome."
Zod thanked him frankly, and Arahito waved his hand to indicate that he didn't need to care.
I looked at Dr. Isali and Dr. Aige.
"Mr. Momonga, bye, you go ahead. I'll get on another plane later."
Dr. Isali and Dr. Aige smiled and waved to me goodbye.
"Ah, see you by chance."
I also waved goodbye, I am really happy to meet you.
"Wow, the boss actually laughed!"
"Really, this is the first time I've seen you smile."
"Wow~, brother Lian Ye looks so handsome when he smiles!"
"Okay, okay! Let's all get on the plane and stop hanging around here!"
I stopped Arahito and Zod, who looked surprised, except for my beloved sister. They were complimenting me.
Is it so weird if I smile? It’s not that I can’t laugh, I’m just not good at showing emotions!
When everyone got on the plane, Barn reluctantly waved goodbye to his favorite Dr. Aige, and then entered the cabin together.
There is no need to be so reluctant to part with you. As long as you are still alive, there will always be a chance to meet you in the future.
Looking at the people in the cabin who were full of expectation and a little uneasy, I took a deep breath:
"Okay, let's go, we're going home!"
"It's your order! My boss!"
Huang Ren immediately stood up and saluted vigorously and then returned to the co-pilot's seat. He really looked impressive. He was worthy of being a soldier protecting national security.
The door of the cabin closed with a sound, and the transport plane slowly ascended. Looking out from the window, it was gradually getting further and further away from the ground.
