Chapter Seventy-One: It's Time to Go Home
"The fall of Tartra, the capital of the Sassanid Kingdom, shows that the military operations of the opposition have reached a new stage, but this does not mean that the opposition has won the victory, and the opposition has not completely eliminated the living forces of the government army, but has fallen into the quagmire of guerrilla warfare of non-governmental organizations supporting the government and cannot break free. Of course, the government forces are currently unable to organize enough forces to retake the capital, and now the situation in Sassanid is just another stalemate, and it will take a long time for the two sides to win this civil war......"www.biquge.info
"In other words, the refugee problem that our country is facing will not be solved for a while?"
"This is natural, after all, our country is a neighbor of the Sassanid Kingdom, and the refugee problem is only a superficial issue, but in the spirit of humanitarianism, for those refugees who have been affected by the war and have been left homeless, we should provide what we can-"
Lin Mingfeng pressed the switch of the remote control to turn off the TV, and the conversation between the host and the guests in the news came to an abrupt end.
For a moment, the room became quiet.
Enduring the discomfort in his stomach, Lin Mingfeng glanced at Alice on the other hospital bed out of the corner of his eye, who closed his eyes and seemed to be dozing off, and had no intention of talking to Lin Mingfeng.
Since being admitted to this ward, the two have not spoken, not because they are unfamiliar, but because they are not in that mood.
After all, it's good to get out of a de facto hell without going crazy. And because of this, Lin Mingfeng is now very disgusted with those people on TV who talk about war and refugee issues, and these people who have not experienced it pretend to understand very well and comment on it, as if it is just an after-dinner conversation.
In Lin Mingfeng's view, this is an insult to those who are fighting for themselves.
With a snap, the door to the ward was pushed open, and Sheila, with duct tape on her face, walked in.
"How are you feeling today?" she reached out and stroked her sideburns through her hair, revealing the bandages on her wrists.
Lin Mingfeng immediately sat up, covered his abdomen and replied, "It's okay, it's just that the magic power is still running around in the body, and the healer said that it will take a while to get rid of it." β
Sheila nodded, "The therapist told me the same, you two can't walk at the moment, so stay here to recuperate until you're healed." β
ββ¦β¦ I understand. Lin Mingfeng smacked his lips and reluctantly agreed.
Alice next to her didn't speak, just rolled over.
"I know you are unwilling, but at that time we could only do so much, and it was already the limit to be able to escape safely from Sassanid territory, and we couldn't take so many people with us...... You can't mind too much about being a man. β
"I know, it's just a little bit of a way to put it down. β
Sheila didn't say anything, but took out two stacks of tickets from her pocket and put them on the bedside table between the two beds, "This is the bonus for this mission, I added a little bit to it as a treatment fee, I and the others escorted Academician Yu Yu back first, be careful yourself...... But you're all adults, so I shouldn't have to worry about it, right?"
Neither patient spoke, and Sheila didn't intend to ask for a result, so after a little pleasantry, she left.
The ward returned to a quiet atmosphere, Lin Mingfeng lay back, looking at a little stain on the white ceiling, and unfamiliar but frightening words echoed in his mind.
"Help me!" "Don't leave me behind!" "Help!" "Please!"
Suddenly, Lin Mingfeng slammed the bed, and the loud noise made Alice react a little - her eyes opened a little, as if she was dissatisfied with the noise Lin Mingfeng made.
"I ...... It's too weak. β
It is a person who can hear the remorse in Lin Mingfeng's words, if he follows the normal process, at this time there should be a beautiful girl who stepped forward to comfort him, and then Lin Mingfeng learned from the pain and said that he must become a strong Balabala - but the beautiful girl present was only one Alice who did not understand the amorous feelings.
"Then get stronger. Alice pulled down the sheet to keep herself from catching a cold.
"Sister Sheila is so slow. Tsukizakura took out a piece of French fries and stuffed it into Fiai's mouth, "Is it time to catch up?"
"Hey, you can change your ticket anyway, whatever. The wrench was pacing beside him with an unlit cigarette in his mouth, and he was very embarrassed by the hospital's rules that he could not smoke. "I think Fengzi is so virtuous, I don't know if I will agree to stay here to recuperate. β
"If it doesn't work, it has to work, what can he do with that ghostly look? If he doesn't treat it, he probably won't be able to play in the future." Catherine gritted her teeth and said, "It's not just that he's injured, it's just that he's more serious." β
"I just can't accept it. Fei Ai chewed on the fries and shook her hands tied like two large turnips, "After all, we have left so many people, we just can't accept it." β
"Legally, this is an emergency avoidance, we don't need to care about so many ......" Ah Chun trembled and accosted, but was immediately punished by Kelly with his fingers in the eyes, and jumped aside with a scream.
When these juniors bragged and farted to each other, Academician Yu Yu, who was an elder, didn't say a word, holding his hands and closing his eyes there, without any intention of getting involved, and he was also the only one who was not injured, whether it was his mental state or physical condition, he was the best one.
Yes, the other people present have more or less some wounds, although they have been bandaged, they can also see what kind of battles these people have experienced, even Tsukizakura, who has a good body, has a thick bandage on her head. And the worst of all was Fiai - the two people who were hospitalized and lay down - not a single part of the finger bones of her two hands was intact, and now it has been reduced to the point that she has to be fed by someone else to eat.
Obviously, they were able to escape from Sassanid territory after a terrible battle, and because the modified bus was finally overwhelmed and scrapped, they had disembarked on foot for the last part of the journey, otherwise they would have arrived in Sarantia two days earlier.
However, it is a very good ending for everyone to survive.
"Ah, Sister Sheila!! This way!" Tsukizakura was the first to spot Sheila who had just come out of the elevator, and quickly waved her hand to indicate her location, and when Sheila saw it, she walked over quickly.
"Xiao Ai, are the two of them alright?" asked Wrench as he snorted his cigarette butt in boredom.
"Throw your cigarettes away, the hospital doesn't allow smoking. Sheila said unhappily, "They're fine for the time being, but they need to recuperate here for a while, let's go back first, and don't stay here too long if there's nothing to do." β
"Don't you need someone to look after here?" asked Tsukizakura.
"There's no need, the nurses don't eat dry food, Akuma has greeted him in advance, and the doctors here must not dare to slack off. β
"It's nice to have someone up there~" Catherine pretended to sigh before jumping aside to avoid Sheila's attack.
"It's just a classmate in the same dormitory!" Sheila said dissatisfiedly, "Okay, you troublemakers, can you move, stand up for me, I'm going home!"
Fiai was the first to stand up, and raised her hands in cheer, and Sheila immediately scolded: "Don't move me!
Fei Ai said with a smile: "It's okay, this injury will heal soon, and I can still get it in a month if it was much more serious than this, you see me jumping around~"
"If you have a problem with your hand, of course you can jump around. Wrench complained.
At this time, Taksey walked over from outside the hospital with a few people, nodded at Sheila, and said, "Miss Sheila, the car is ready, it's almost time to go." β
"Well, thank you, how is Akuma doing now?"
"Miss Mayor is now holding a meeting at the town hall, and she regrets not being able to come to see her off, and I hope you don't mind. β
"No, she helped me a lot, I should be grateful to her...... I hope you can help me convey my gratitude. β
The wrench grabbed Yueying's shoulder, looked at the two who were still polite and greeting, and said, "Boring adults." β
"Aren't you an adult?" said Catherine.
"But I'm not bored~"
"Yes. β
Tsukizakura looked at the wrench in a daze, and then at Catherine who was snickering, and finally chose to continue feeding Fiai.
"Okay! Mr. Yu Yu, and a few other little bastards!
"Oh!" except for Academician Yu and Ah Chun, the rest of them raised their hands and shoutedβand then were glared at by the passing nurses.
