Catastrophe Chapter 42 Lin Xuan blames herself
"That's probably the way it is, General Shangguan is my old chief, and this time he has the grace to recreate me, and now he needs to let me return to the army, and I have no reason to refuse. And the current situation is very chaotic, to put it mildly, even if we hide in the safe zone, it is just a short breath, and none of us can know what will be like in the future."
In a spacious and bright room, Long Hao was slowly telling his brothers who had served as managers at all levels in Longteng Security Company about his decision. In addition to Lao Xu and others who had sacrificed, there were more than a dozen people in the room, including Lin Xuan, Xue Qinghan, Zhang Shanyu and others, no matter what, they all followed Long Hao all the way from Dragon City to here, and everyone played a role that could not be ignored in this operation.
Now that Long Hao has decided what he wants to do next, in his opinion, it is necessary for him to give an explanation to everyone, and at the same time, he also wants to use Shangguan Yang's need for himself as a bargaining chip as much as possible to make some reasonable arrangements for their future life in the safe zone.
"I don't need to say it, I'll go wherever you go!" Mo Feng stood up from his seat and was the first to speak, after all, he had already made a decision, no matter what Long Hao wanted to do, he would unswervingly follow behind Long Hao.
After Mo Feng finished speaking, Zhang Yu also immediately expressed his position, and even brought Li Lan without hesitation, "Haha, the little brother has spoken, how can the two of us who are brothers say anything?" Ba, you say yes, right? Of course, Li Lan would not object, so he simply nodded and made a statement, and then looked at the others.
Long Hao had already expected this situation, what kind of urine sex did he have for his sworn brother? This time Long Hao didn't say anything against their adventure, anyway, it was useless, these three guys would try their best to follow him in the end, so he simply smiled and nodded and agreed.
Of course, not everyone is like them, on the contrary, most of them are fortunate to have gone through so much hardship to make it to the safe zone, and it is obviously impossible to let them go out and fight the mutants after less than a day's rest.
"Boss, I've been retired for years. Yes, I know we should do our part, but I really don't want to go out and face those monsters anymore! I'm sorry! The first person to disagree also appeared, and when Long Hao heard the prestige, it was a man who had already entered middle age. I used to work as a department in the company, and I was mainly engaged in logistics arrangements at the beginning.
So for his opinion, Long Hao did not have anything to be unhappy about. On the contrary, Long Hao actually hoped that they could stay in the safe zone with peace of mind.
"Well, I didn't mean to force everyone to join the search and rescue team, we are now in the safe zone, and everyone has the right to choose their own path next."
After finishing speaking, Long Hao pondered for a while, thinking that some people might just be unable to express their opinions, but in fact, they had no intention of joining the search and rescue team, so they simply let those who were unwilling to join the search and rescue team leave on their own.
This decision was undoubtedly very effective, and several people who didn't want to go outside again, but were embarrassed to express their opinions, took the initiative to get up and bow to Long Hao with a hint of apology, expressing their gratitude to Long Hao for bringing them to the safe zone, and then walked out of the room without saying a word. And some of the people who were somewhat undecided before finally made a decision after seeing them leave the room, and also got up and bowed to Long Hao and the rest of the people who were sitting still, and followed the people in front of them out of the room.
Now the rest are the guys who are willing to continue to follow Long Hao to rescue other survivors, some of these people are passionate and want to save more people, some are hardcore subordinates who are bent on following Long Hao, and finally some people decide to stay for various other reasons.
After all the people who had decided to quit had withdrawn from the room, Long Hao glanced at the remaining people in the room, Zhang Yu and the three of them did not mention it, and the rest were still sitting still, Zhou Weizhi, the other two squad leaders Xiao Yan and Ruan Yingyao, Xiahou Zhengbei, who used to be the chief instructor of Longteng Security Company, and even a twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old young woman, Lai Wanting, who had served as the head of the personnel department, as well as Xue Qinghan, and Xue Qinghan's current little apprentice Zhang Shanyu, And the most unexpected thing for Long Hao was Lin Xuan, a biologist who is a goddess-level character.
"Teacher Lin? What are you? "Other people are easy to understand, Zhou Weizhi and their three squad leaders are almost all young people with strong blood and blood, and they are all veterans, and now that the country is in trouble, they naturally stand up with enthusiasm. Xiahou Zhengbei is because Long Hao once had a life-saving grace for him, and the days with Long Hao are no shorter than Li Lan Mofeng and them, that is, the iron-core subordinates of Long Hao mentioned earlier, just like Wang Sanhu who sacrificed his life to save Long Hao. Even Lai Wanting, Xue Qinghan and others had worked under Long Hao, but Lin Xuan, a delicate and beautiful girl, suddenly made the dangerous decision to join the rescue team, which really made Long Hao puzzled, so he asked her questions first.
"yes, what are you doing here? We're not going out on an outing, now there are mutants everywhere, and the rescue team could be wiped out at any time, so don't make trouble, you better stay in peace and continue to do research in the Security Bureau. Maybe your research results can help the safe zone better defend against mutant attacks? Before Lin Xuan could answer, Zhang Yu on the side stood up excitedly and rushed to answer, and also ran to Lin Xuan to persuade her.
This is actually not surprising, Zhang Mouren undoubtedly moved his true feelings this time, hearing that Lin Xuan actually chose to go out on an adventure with them, how could there be no reason not to be nervous?
"Yes, Lin Da Beauty, don't mess around! Participating in the rescue should be the business of those of us big men! The other people around couldn't help but persuade, after all, a high-level intellectual like Lin Xuan was still a big beauty. It's hard to watch going on an adventure with these big men.
But Lin Xuan's side did not change his mind because of everyone's persuasion, only to see Lin Xuan look up at Zhang Yu, a trace of inexplicable emotion flashed in his eyes, and then turned his head to look at Long Hao. There was an expression of self-blame and guilt in his eyes, and he shook his head painfully, "No, don't persuade me, this time, I must go with you." I know a lot about the habits of wild animals and can help you a lot. And this time we can bring enough equipment, you have also seen the poisonous snakes we have encountered before, there are many poisonous creatures and even plants like this in the wild, I can collect some samples to make serum, which can reduce casualties to a certain extent! In short, I will definitely not hold back the rescue team. ”
After finishing speaking, Lin Xuan stared at Long Hao with a pair of Danfeng eyes, waiting for Long Hao to make a decision, although they are now going to participate in the search and rescue force, Long Hao is still the core of the whole team, and Long Hao's attitude is the key to whether she can join the search and rescue team.
Zhou Weizhi and the others on the side fell into thought after listening to Lin Xuan's speech. It is not that they are stupid to make the decision to join the rescue team at such a time, on the contrary, the people who still remain in this room are all characters to be reckoned with. What Lin Xuan said was indeed reasonable, so they were not persuading Lin Xuan, anyway, the final decision had always been in Long Hao's hands, rather than continuing to persuade Lin Xuan, it was better to wait for Long Hao to make a decision.
And Long Hao swept his gaze over Zhang Yu, and Zhang Yu shook his head at him imperceptibly. Of course, Long Hao could understand what his brother meant, but he also did not ignore Lin Xuan's eyes looking at him, which made Long Hao greatly moved.
It contains hope, grief, guilt, self-blame, etc., and many emotions are mixed together, but the most important thing is that Long Hao read something called firmness from her eyes. Long Hao had a hunch that even if she rejected Lin Xuan today, she would still try to join the search and rescue team, and it was better to talk about it today. He also wanted to know what caused Lin Xuan's complicated emotions.
"What you are talking about is only the role of you joining the search and rescue team, but what I want to know is the reason, tell me your reason, otherwise I will not agree to you joining the search and rescue team, at least not you will join our team." In the face of Zhang Yu's plea and Lin Xuan's expectations, Long Hao could only sigh in the end and let Lin Xuan explain what the reason for him to join the search and rescue team was, in fact, it was not to convince him Long Hao, but to persuade Zhang Yu who was standing beside her anxiously.
Lin Xuan is also a very smart woman, and she looked at Zhang Yu standing beside her from following Long Hao's gaze, with a look on her face. There were some changes in his eyes, and finally as if he had made some kind of decision, he took the initiative to grab Zhang Yu's hand in front of everyone and held it in his hand, "Zhang Yu, I have actually seen your mind in the past two days, but I really have a reason to join the search and rescue team, you promise to take me, okay?" ”
was grabbed by his sweetheart so suddenly, Zhang Yu instantly felt his blood pressure soar, and his whole person became hot. His face turned red in the stunned gaze of everyone, and then he was a little embarrassed to avoid everyone's sight, but he didn't let go of his hand, feeling the coldness of Lin Xuan's little hand, and holding it tightly in his hand, "Just like the boss said, since you said that you have a reason to go, then tell us about it!" ”
Feeling the power in Zhang Yu's hand, Lin Xuan's emotions seemed to be much calmer, not as excited as at the beginning, and then glanced at everyone. Finally, he looked at Long Hao again, "You are older than me, can I call you a big brother?" ”
"Huh!! The eldest brother is called, Xiao Mo Feng, it seems that you want to have an extra second sister-in-law! As soon as Zhou Weizhi and the others on the side heard Lin Xuan's words, they immediately began to coax, causing Lin Xuan and Zhang Yu, who had just eased up, to blush again.
"Okay, okay, don't make a fool of yourself, now is not the time to talk about this!" Long Hao saw that everyone was starting to lose shape again, and stopped everyone with a smile and a smile, and then motioned for Lin Xuan to continue.
Lin Xuan undoubtedly showed the strength of the female doctor, nodded and continued, "Big brother, I want to ask you, what is the reason why you agreed to return to the army and lead the rescue team out to save people?" What Long Hao didn't expect was that Lin Xuan didn't directly explain the reason, but asked Long Hao such a question first.
This couldn't help but make Long Hao a little confused, but he still answered her question truthfully, "Because I want to atone for my sins, in order to comfort those brothers who died in the ant nest!" I want to make up for my mistakes by saving more people, and although it can't get their lives back, it can at least make me feel a little more comfortable! ”
Lin Xuan nodded, a painful look appeared on her face again, and even her eyes were red, and tears were left on the spot, making Zhang Yu at a loss and hurriedly wiped it for her. After the tears were wiped away, Lin Xuan gently pulled Zhang Yu's arm away, and after calming down her emotions, she said that she was fine.
"Again, that's why I'm doing the same! Do you think you are the biggest fault for what happened last night? ”
Long Hao was puzzled, he didn't know why Lin Xuan suddenly mentioned this matter, but before he could respond, Lin Xuan had already continued to talk about it himself.
"No, you're wrong! In fact, the biggest fault is caused by me! ”
This time it can be regarded as alarming everyone, all of them looked at her inexplicably, and Lin Xuan raised her hand to stop Zhang Yu's action of wanting to refute.
"At that time, everyone thought that it was too dangerous to travel at night, and even I had this idea, but as a person who studied biology, I forgot the most basic thing at this time. Even a question that many children who have studied a little biology should know! Ants are low-intelligence creatures that have a short range of vision and rely primarily on their sense of smell for group communication and finding food. There were so many of us at the time, and the smell of blood and the smell of gasoline in the convoy was so strong that it was impossible for such a mixed smell to escape the smell of ants. I've killed them all! Big brother, you have the same pain, do you think I can stay in the safe zone with peace of mind? ”
Quiet! As Lin Xuan's words were finished, the room fell into silence, Long Hao set his eyes on Zhang Yu, he finally understood the source of Lin Xuan's complex emotions, no one blamed Lin Xuan, but they also felt Lin Xuan's self-blame and resoluteness, so they all fell silent, and Zhang Yu became the most tangled one.
