Apocalypse: My Sweetie Is Tough but Cute
Chapter 627 - Chapter 627 Chapter 628 Why Cant They Live

Chapter 627: Chapter 628: Why Can’t They Live? Chapter 627: Chapter 628: Why Can’t They Live? Qu Guo’an, feeling helpless, said, “We’re in a critical period now. You still have more important tasks to attend to. The incident has already happened, and even if you want to seek justice for the Wild Wolf, you must take care of yourself first, right? It’s not just you who’s angry; I can see that even the division commander and the others are fuming. You need to recover from your injuries, and if there’s something fishy about the matter, it will eventually come to light.”

“Come to light?” Tang Zelin sneered. “Old Qu, we’ve been partners for so many years now, haven’t we? When have I ever acted without sufficient reason? There’s something off about this strike mission; even a blind man could see that. And now you want me to ignore everything and go back to recover? I can’t do that.”

“So what do you want to do?”

“Let them come and investigate. I want to know what kind of problem they want to pin on me,” Tang Zelin said calmly.

“Forget it, endure for the moment and the seas will calm; the situation at the front line is so complex now. If you insist on getting to the bottom of this, it will be difficult for the division commander and the others too. Better to step back and think of a method later.”

Tang Zelin narrowed his eyes and shook his head. “Old Qu, that’s not suitable. The longer we drag this out, the worse it is for the members of Wild Wolf. They’re people who sacrificed themselves for the country, and I don’t want to see any of them sacrificed for no reason.”

“Old Tang, to tell you the truth, it’s not just me giving you advice, the division commander came to me and asked me to talk to you.” Seeing that Tang Zelin was unmoved, Qu Guo’an had no choice but to invoke the division commander.

Tang Zelin lifted his head. “What do you mean?”

“Ah.” Qu Guo’an didn’t even know how to explain.

Understanding his silence, Tang Zelin got the message.

Without a word for a long while, he finally said coldly, “Is someone from above putting on the pressure?”

“Not very clear, but looking at the division commander’s complexion these past few days, it’s probably very likely.”

Tang Zelin’s gaze fixed on the corner of the door, deep in thought.

After a long time, he asked Qu Guo’an, “Have you seen the Red Snake that is always by my side?”

“Is it that one that usually coils around your wrist?”

“Hmm.”

“Yes! Yes! Just wait a moment.”

Qu Guo’an immediately stood up and went out. After a while, he returned with an aluminum tray and handed it to Tang Zelin.

“Is it this one? When we found you, it was on your body… but it’s no longer alive. I figured you were quite fond of this snake, so I brought it back with you. Here, it has returned to its owner. Old Tang, don’t be too sad.”

Looking at the lifeless Red Snake lying on the tray, Qu Guo’an knew it was just a snake, but because Tang Zelin had treated it like a son, bringing it with him every day, he too felt a sense of familiarity and affection for it.

Seeing the snake dead was still very distressing.

One could only imagine how Tang Zelin felt inside. Qu Guo’an gave Tang Zelin’s shoulder a firm pat, “I’m going out. You rest well, and take care.”

After Old Qu left, Tang Zelin was alone in the room.

He looked down at the aluminum tray on his lap, where the Little Snake King that had accompanied him in battles and conversations lay. Despite its high “Mana”, capable of performing actions beyond the ordinary, at this moment, it remained motionless before him.

Tang Zelin felt as if a heavy hammer was striking hard against his chest.

Before losing consciousness, that extraordinary sensation of warmth and pressure, like a protective shield enveloping him and the surviving Wild Wolf Team Members, he could still recall vividly upon closing his eyes.

He knew why the Little Snake King had ended up this way.

It was to protect him and the Wild Wolf, shouldering the most intense bombardment on its own.

Why were those people investigating them?

Because they weren’t supposed to survive.

No one should have been able to survive under those circumstances.

His thin lips curled coldly.

Rather than being curious why they could have survived, he was more interested in why they should not have survived.
