C640 Search and Rescue Operations
This man who moved her and made her feel helpless, always caught her off guard.
"Who said there was no one? The Chiyan is outside."
"It's a snake, not a human." Si Leeting would always keep her speechless.
Gu Jin pouted. "The patient should have a good rest."
"You said you were my medicine just now. Will you recover if you don't take medicine when you are sick?"
"Then don't be too intense." Gu Jin always ended up like this. There was nothing she could do.
"As you wish, wife. Let me see how much you miss me." Si Leeting approached her with a wicked smile.
The simple wooden house and the simple wooden bed made an ambiguous sound very quickly.
Under the dim light, Gu Jin looked dazedly at the man who was sweating profusely. It was only because the two of them were compatible with each other that she had a sense of realism.
"Brother Leeting, you're here. You're finally here..."
On the island, she dreamed every night, especially Carter who looked very similar to Si Leeting.
She had thought of Carter as Si Leeting several times in her sleep. When she woke up, she realized that the person beside her was not Si Leeting. She felt a deep sense of disappointment in her heart.
At this moment, she could feel his warmth. It was him. It was really him.
Si Leeting also wanted to use this method to confirm. This was not a dream. His Susu had really returned.
"Susu..." He called out her name.
The two of them held each other's hands tightly.
In the cave, the huge python lying on the ground opened its eyes and looked at the wooden house. Soon, it closed its eyes.
Amidst the heavy rain, Tan Luoxi returned to her small apartment. She stood in front of the window and looked at the sky that seemed to have been torn open by someone. The heavy rain fell.
From time to time, there would be the sound of thunder in her ears. Every time after the lightning, there would be the sound of thunder.
She was not a person who was afraid of thunder. However, she was not sure today. Every time the thunder sounded, her body would tremble.
Her hands unconsciously closed. Good heavens, grandfather, you must ensure that their journey is smooth.
It was such a heavy rain that normal pilots could not take off. Helplessly, Si Leeting ordered the professional pilots to fly.
Tan Luoxi did not know how long she had been standing in front of the window. Her eyelids were twitching and her heart was uncertain.
The phone on the table rang and woke her up. Tan Luoxi immediately picked up the phone.
Her trembling hands almost did not hold the phone. Was it Lin Jun's call to tell her that he was safe?
She took a look and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.
"Assistant Tan, is it?"
The voice that spoke was a little familiar. Tan Luoxi quickly reacted, "Officer Chi."
"It's me."
Why did he call at this critical juncture? Tan Luoxi's heart almost jumped out of her throat.
"Yes, what is it?"
"I just received news that Si Leeting forcefully took off in the thunderstorm weather and caused the plane to crash."
"What?" Wang Yao asked. Tan Luoxi almost fainted. "How could this be?"
"Right now, none of them can make a call. We have to go over immediately. Where is your address? I'll come and pick you up."
Tan Luoxi quickly gave him an address and hung up the phone. She fell to the ground.
She was already numb. Why did things become like this? God, why don't you open your eyes!
Tan Luoxi thought of Lin Jun gently asking her to go home and rest before he left, and the plane crash. Tears rolled down Tan Luoxi's face.
Her phone vibrated. Chi Yan sent her a message saying that he would arrive soon and let her go downstairs.
Tan Luoxi then left in a hurry. She wiped the tears on her face randomly and warned herself in her heart that they would not be so unlucky.
Even if something happened to the plane, maybe they would parachute. People like Lin Jun and Si Leeting usually walked step by step. How could they put themselves in danger?
Tan Luoxi looked at the engagement ring on her hand. Si Leeting insisted that Gu Jin was still alive even after the explosion on the sea. She had to have confidence in them!
When she arrived downstairs, Chi Yan had just arrived. He had a lollipop in his mouth and his expression was serious.
Tan Luoxi was a little surprised that such a high and mighty officer would delay a lollipop at this time.
She did not know that this was Chi Yan's personality. The more troublesome it was, the more nervous he was. He would eat lollipops to relieve himself.
"Have you cried?"
Tan Luoxi got into the car. Her eyes were red. It was hard not to let others see it.
"Yes."
"They will be fine. In the past, they have been specially trained in my base. They know how to parachute."
He was comforting Tan Luoxi's heart, but the frown between his brows also revealed his nervousness.
It was fine that there was no clouds in the sky. He had just checked the weather forecast. This time, it was a large scale rain.
The rain in that area was even heavier, and it was an uninhabited area. There was no signal at all, so it was very dangerous for the two of them.
No matter how strong they were, they were just businessmen. They were not like the soldiers who came and went in the rain all year round.
Even though he was worried about Si Leeting in his heart, his face was still very calm. He kept persuading Tan Luoxi.
"I've already arranged for people to go over. It's just that the weather is not good and we can't fly over. Driving is slower."
Tan Luoxi looked at the sky that was getting darker and darker. "How long will it take to drive over?"
"At least seven or eight hours. We still have to look at the road condition."
Seven or eight hours? How was she going to endure these few hours?
"Sleep in the car for a while. I'll call you when we get there."
How could Tan Luoxi sleep? She was more awake than anyone else along the way.
Chi Yan drove very fast. When he drove the highway to the mountain road, the car was bumpy.
In order to get there earlier, he drove very fast. The bumpy road was even more intense.
"Are you okay?" He lived under various circumstances. As for Tan Luoxi, she was different. She, a woman, was probably unable to withstand this kind of bumpy road.
"I'm fine. You don't need to care about me."
Tan Luoxi forcefully endured the discomfort in her stomach. They had to hurry and arrive. They did not know what would happen if they were late.
At night, the wind and rain on the mountain road were very heavy. Especially when lightning flashed across the sky, it lit up the entire sky. Tan Luoxi would not be able to feel it.
She had never come to such a remote and rugged place. It seemed that her destination was still in the depths of the mountain.
Usually, she felt that the traffic was very noisy, but one day when she was far away from the noise of the city, she would instead feel afraid.
There was only the sound of wind and rain in the quiet valley. She had a feeling that there was a black dragon baring its fangs and puffing smoke in the darkness.
"The road conditions are not good. We can't drive too fast. There are compressed biscuits and water in the car. Eat some. It's already very late."
"I'm not hungry." How could she be hungry? Lin Jun was still in a life-threatening situation. The phone had exploded, but the call still could not be picked up.
There were very few families in the mountains. Occasionally, they would pass by a few families. The villagers slept very early. Except for the car lights, it was almost dark.
There were signals here. Tan Luoxi could not help but ask, "How much longer?"
"At this speed, it will take two hours."
By the time they arrived, it was already midnight. Chi Yan very gentlemanly handed her an umbrella.
The people who arrived first had already started to search for the plane. They had found the plane that had crashed. There were two bodies in the plane. They were the two human traffickers.
They were covered in white cloth.
"Sir, other than the two of them, no one else has been found nearby."
The plane was in the sky when the accident happened. They had parachuted in advance and would be blown away by the wind and rain. They would definitely not be at the crash site.
The area was full of mountains. They did not know which mountain they had fallen into.
Chi Yan stood where he was and observed the wind for a while before speaking slowly.
"Go to that mountain and search for them."
"Yes."
He was unable to calculate the precise location, but he could roughly estimate it.
He walked in front of Tan Luoxi and said, "You rest in the car. I will bring people into the mountain."
Tan Luoxi looked away from the two bodies and she firmly said, "No, I will go with you."
"The mountain road is not easy to walk on. It is raining again."
"I am not afraid."
"Fine, let's go. No one will care about you if it doesn't work."
"I definitely won't drag you down!"
"Let's go."
A group of people entered the mountain with flashlights in their hands. It was their first time here and they were not familiar with the situation. It was also very troublesome to find them.2
The rain had stopped since dawn. A layer of white fog had appeared in the forest.
The pilot had found them, but Lin Jun and Si Leeting were still nowhere to be found.
Tan Luoxi's feet hurt as if they were not hers. She was still gritting her teeth.
"Brother Jun!"
"I'm here." A weak voice sounded.
