"Just say what you want to say."
Duan Mufeng sat on a backpack with a cigarette in his mouth. He looked at the hesitant Zhao Changqing in front of him and said lightly.
"Feng Shuai..."
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have hesitated just now. I should have taken action before Du Huai was ready to hold Director Xu hostage."
Zhao Changqing summoned up the courage to apologize to Duan Mufeng once again.
If Du Huai had really succeeded just now, all the supplies of the rescue team would have been taken away by him. Even if Kyoto sent people to pick them up, they might not be able to wait until then.
"That's not your fault."
Duanmu Feng was silent for a while and said lightly.
So far, there are only less than 100 people left in the rescue team out of more than 500 people. There are still so many people alive today. He no longer wants to blame anyone. Even if Zhao Changqing makes a mistake, he does not want to pursue it, because in the final analysis Zhao Changqing is not his subordinate.
After this mission is over, there may never be another intersection between them.
"Thanks."
"You just said that you have notified Kyoto Prefecture, but there is a strong special magnetic field inside the glacier and it is impossible to contact the outside world. How did you do it?"
Zhao Changqing said gratefully, and then asked with curiosity on his face.
"This is not important."
"It's almost time. Let's go see how everyone is prepared. It's time for us to set off."
Duan Mufeng replied casually and changed the subject.
"All right..."
Zhao Changqing nodded hesitantly, turned around and left slowly.
Although he was still extremely curious, he understood that the most important thing now was to leave the glacier as soon as possible, otherwise who knows what dangers he would encounter later.
"Everyone is almost ready. Pack up your gear and get ready to go."
When he came to the crowd, Zhao Changqing looked at it and said loudly.
After hearing Zhao Changqing's order, everyone who was sitting on the ground to rest slowly stood up one by one, and no one dared to raise any objections.
At this time, Zhao Changqing discovered the cold core beside him, hesitated for a moment, and walked over quickly.
"Leng Xin, do you know how Feng Shuai got in touch with Kyoto?"
Zhao Changqing looked at Leng Xin and asked doubtfully.
"have no idea."
Leng Xin looked at Duan Mufeng not far away and shook her head without hesitation, but her expression was not as uninformed as she said.
Moreover, there was a strange look in her eyes that even she herself was not aware of.
In fact, she knew full well that Duan Mufeng sent a request for help signal to Kyoto through his brain, but she promised Duan Mufeng that she would not leak any information easily.
Zhao Changqing shook his head in disappointment, stopped worrying, and immediately organized everyone to start.
Soon, the rescue team regrouped and set off again toward Kyoto's defense line.
Because Duan Mufeng asked Tianlongwei to share some food, the rescue team no longer had to worry about material issues. The team that had replenished their strength sped up and met the personnel who came to respond two hours later.
After the two sides met, the rescue team got back into the car and headed straight for Kyoto.
"Kyoto is here! Look!"
"Great, we finally came back alive!"
"ah!"
Two hours later, people in the motorcade suddenly started cheering because someone had already seen the city walls of Kyoto!
Immediately afterwards, many people in the rescue team began to cheer, and some even roared loudly, releasing the excitement after escaping from death.
Zhao Changqing sat in the passenger seat, looking at the approaching Kyoto, with a bitter smile finally showing on his lips.
Although Xu Tao is still in a coma, at least he returned to Kyoto alive. His mission is completed!
However, Duan Mufeng, who was sitting in another car at this moment, had no expression on his face. On the contrary, it was more solemn, because this trip to the glacier did not solve the doubts in his heart.
At the city gate, when Jin Ping, the head of the government, knew that the rescue team had arrived, he personally brought his secretary Dong Jianguo and security minister Xu Feiyun to the city gate to greet them.
Looking at the motorcade slowly stopping in front of him, there was a smile of relief on his face.
However, when he saw that less than a hundred people had returned, his expression suddenly became serious again, and he couldn't help but sigh.
"Reporting to the head of the government, Zhao Changqing lived up to his mission and successfully brought Director Xu back!"
After Zhao Changqing got out of the car, he jogged up to Jin Ping, saluted and said loudly.
Immediately afterwards, someone carried Xu Tao, who was still unconscious, out of the car and brought him to Jin Ping.
"Very good!"
"Get treatment immediately!"
Jin Ping glanced at Xu Tao on the stretcher and immediately ordered to Xu Feiyun.
Xu Feiyun agreed, and immediately ordered someone to pick up Xu Tao, put him in an ambulance, and took the lead into the city.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Jin Ping patted Zhao Changqing's shoulder and said happily.
But after hearing Jin Ping's words, Zhao Changqing couldn't be happy, and there was a trace of remorse on his face, because although the scientists were rescued, almost all the rescue team was destroyed.
At this time, Duan Mufeng also got out of the car and walked slowly closer.
"Feng Shuai, you've had a hard journey!"
Jin Ping pushed Zhao Changqing away, took two steps forward, took Duan Mufeng's hand, and said gratefully.
"There's no such thing as hard work or hard work. Since I agreed at the beginning, I must keep my word."
Duanmu Feng smiled and said calmly, then forcefully pulled his hand away from Jin Ping's.
"Capital, this rescue is all thanks to Feng Shuai. Without him, we wouldn't have been able to come back alive."
Zhao Changqing on the side couldn't help but add something, looking at Duanmufeng with gratitude in his eyes.
Although there had been some estrangement between him and Duanmu Feng, he knew very well that without Duan Mufeng, he would have died in the Northern Glacier.
Duanmu Feng smiled and did not respond, with a hint of exhaustion on his face.
"Okay, everyone has worked hard. I have asked people to prepare a resting place for you. Go and have something to eat and have a rest. If you have any questions, we will talk about it tomorrow."
Jin Ping saw Duan Mufeng's fatigue, so he hurriedly changed the subject and immediately ordered Xu Feiyun to send a car to take everyone in the rescue team to a resting place, accompanied by his secretary Dong Jianguo in person.
Half an hour later, the rescue team was sent to a high-end hotel in Kyoto. Sumptuous meals had been prepared in the lobby, and doctors were waiting beside them, ready to check everyone's health.
Seeing the table full of sumptuous food, a group of people cheered and rushed up to grab it with their hands. People who have never experienced extreme hunger cannot understand what they are doing now.
Duan Mufeng asked Tang Jun and Jin Ling to stay in the hall, and planned to go back to the room to eat. Dong Jianguo personally sent Duan Mufeng to the room.
The room was large and looked like a presidential suite. This was something Jin Ping had specially ordered. Others did not receive such good treatment and lived in a standard room with eight beds.
Duan Mufeng took a deep breath, slowly sat on the sofa, lit a cigarette casually, and frowned as he recalled everything that happened in the base under the ice.
It seems that he has to continue to explore the relationship between his rebirth and the disappearance of events and people in the past.
And the unanswered phone call has also become a new mystery.
"Dong dong dong..."
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Duan Mufeng frowned, stood up and opened the door, and found Dong Jianguo pushing a dining cart filled with all kinds of food.
His food was obviously richer and more expensive than those of the people below.
"Oh, the head of the government has ordered that special arrangements be made for your food."
"Is it easy to get in?"
After noticing that Duan Mufeng was looking at the dishes, Dong Jianguo hurriedly explained, and then asked tentatively.
Duanmu Feng said nothing and stepped aside.
With a smile on his face, Dong Jianguo personally pushed the dining cart into the room, and then placed all the dishes on the table.
"Feng Shuai, please take it easy. I have something else to do, so I'll take the first step."
"If you need anything, just say hello. Someone will stay outside full-time and will notify me of your request in a timely manner."
Then Dong Jianguo respectfully bid farewell to Duan Mufeng and slowly left with the empty dining cart.
Duan Mufeng glanced at the food on the table, but he didn't have much appetite. He slowly came to the window, looked at the street outside, and fell into deep thought...
