Chapter 466: Supernatural Bedevilment, Escape (5)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

However, every time Xu Jiajia went to clean up the ruins, she would see the white monkey imitating digging with its claws, ignoring the pain.

The white monkey was also concerned about Su Yun, but it could not express it. Over the past few days, Xu Jiajia had also tried to give the white monkey something to eat, but the white monkey had only drank some water and had lost a lot of weight. Perhaps because it was too tired, the white monkey curled up in Xu Jiajia’s arms and fell asleep. Its claws were already scratched, and its fur was no longer bright, making one’s heart ache.

Xu Jiajia came in front of Xu Kui and asked anxiously why he suddenly wanted to retreat. Under his daughter’s repeated questioning, Xu Kui’s suppressed emotions finally erupted under this pressure. “Enough!” This was the first time Xu Kui had such an extreme attitude towards Xu Jiajia. “Do you think I don’t want to find Su Yun? What do you think I’ve been doing for so many days? But Jiajia, I’m a soldier. It’s a soldier’s duty to obey orders. It had been seventeen days since the collapse. You also knew very well that it was impossible for Su Yun to last so many days under such extreme conditions. I don’t want this outcome either. I also want to find Su Yun. At the very least, I can apologize to him in person.”

At this point, Xu Kui’s voice began to tremble. Even though he tried his best to control his emotions, his eyes were still red. “But we have to face reality…” After saying this, Xu Kui walked past Xu Jiajia dejectedly and led the search and rescue team behind him, preparing to gather according to the orders.

Xu Jiajia sat on the ruins and hugged the white monkey, burying her face in it. Only her constantly moving shoulders showed how helpless she was at this moment.

One after another, the search and rescue team rushed back from all directions. The higher-ups’ orders also meant that the search and rescue operation was coming to an end. In fact, everyone had already realized this outcome on the eighth day of the search.

However, from beginning to end, no one was willing to accept it, much less believe that Su Yun had already left them. This document undoubtedly pulled everyone back to reality. It was also a rational way to deal with it. After all, this mighty search and rescue team had been searching for more than half a month. Until now, they had yet to discover the whereabouts of Su Yun and Chen Jie.

The outcome was self-evident.

Xu Jiajia was actually very clear about this, but she did not want to face it. Someone sat beside Xu Jiajia silently and gently patted her shoulder. “Young lady, seeing that you’ve been here all this time, Su Yun is very glad to have a friend like you.”

Hearing this, Xu Jiajia looked up and saw Su Guowei, whose hair had turned white overnight.

“Uncle… I’m sorry… I couldn’t persuade my father…” Xu Jiajia cried and tried her best to suppress the grievance and helplessness in her heart.

Su Guowei sighed deeply and looked up at the search and rescue teams walking past. “It’s not their fault. They have their own difficulties. Go back and have a good rest.”

Hearing this, Xu Jiajia looked at Su Guowei in confusion. “Uncle, what about you?”

Su Guowei revealed a helpless smile, but his eyes were still firm. “I want to take him home.”

In half a month, Su Guowei seemed to have aged more than ten years. The stubble on his face hid what he was thinking. The gloominess in his eyes was even more despair that he did not want to talk about with others.

Xu Jiajia gently wiped the corners of her eyes and took a deep breath. Then, she looked at Su Guowei and said, “Uncle, I won’t leave either. Regardless of whether Su Yun is dead or alive, I must see him!”

Just as Xu Jiajia finished speaking, Feng Shaoyu, Professor Cai, and the others appeared in front of them. Feng Shaoyu looked at Su Guowei guiltily and said solemnly, “Comrade Mountain Condor, I’m sorry. I can’t stop the rescue team from leaving. However, the search and rescue team in our border area will always be here. We won’t stop until we find Su Yun!”

Su Guowei nodded and stood up to salute Feng Shaoyu. Although he did not say anything, everything was fully expressed in this military salute.

Overnight, only a few teams were left on the ruins. However, Su Guowei, Xu Jiajia, and the others could still be seen in these teams. They were the last people to hold hope, or rather, they did not dare to face it. Everyone already knew the reality in their hearts.

Cangluan Mountain was devastated. As far as the eye could see, it was filled with sorrow. The people on the mountain were the same. Their lonely figures passed through the ruins, working hard for a hopeless hope.

At the Hibiscus City police station, Chen Ye and Zhou Xiaoxiao, who had received the order to retreat, returned to the police station helplessly.

However, when they pushed open the door of the conference room, they quickly saw Zhou Nanhai, Zhang Zhenghuai, and the other higher-ups of the police station sitting at the conference table.

Looking at Chen Ye and Zhou Xiaoxiao, the silent Zhang Zhenghuai finally spoke. “Su Yun… Is there still no news?”

Chen Ye shook his head solemnly. Zhou Xiaoxiao’s tired face was also filled with loneliness. Zhang Zhenghuai sighed deeply. “Heroes have short lives. The heavens are jealous of geniuses…”

After the Hibiscus City police found out what Su Yun had done at the border, Zhang Zhenghuai and Zhou Nanhai were the most shocked..
