Chapter 318: Chapter 318 Provocation
Song Yi asked, and everyone shook their heads...
"At the beginning, we were together, but then it got chaotic, and we got separated.
Brother Song, it was terrifying.
That crowd was like they were insane, when a child fell, they actually had the audacity to step right over them.
The cries were heart-wrenching, how could they do that..."
If it were adults, he wouldn’t have said anything.
But for children, he still couldn’t accept it.
"Kaiyang, calm yourself down. Often, being powerless is the norm,"
Song Yi said, silently looking at the hand clutching the hem of his clothes.
"I understand, Brother Song."
He let go somewhat dejectedly, knowing these things couldn’t be undone but still finding it hard to bear.
Jhiang Yuan was speechless too, after all that life and death they’d been through, he still overflowed with sympathy.
What could she say? Better to remain silent and focus on applying medicinal alcohol to her mother.
"You guys came too, there are blankets over there, hurry..."
Ye Mianmian had gone to get them, and now she returned with one in her arms.
Tonight, they were destined to spend the night here.
Without anything, it was indeed difficult.
Hearing this, Fan Qing nudged him, and only then did he belatedly run over to get some.
When everything finally quieted down, everyone spread the blankets on the ground.
The one extra blanket was given to Qin Yue and Xiao Nuan to share, while the rest covered themselves with their own clothing.
Continuously, the door would still open.
Uncertain whether the whirlwind had ended or if an order had been given,
people kept coming in. Initially, the guards at the entrance had declared the place full,
but now they had started letting more people in, visibly overcrowding the space.
Even, some asked them to squeeze in tighter, to reduce their space.
Jhiang Yuan sat on the edge, wanting to ask Song Yi what exactly was going on.
The chaotic commotion here wouldn’t make it too unexpected.
Seeing her hesitant to speak, he sat down beside her.
"Don’t worry, it’s safe now.
This is an emergency shelter built by the base; we knew of its existence before.
When that building collapsed, I was very concerned, so I called you all over here.
As for Xiao Nuan, I was worried about your uncle getting hurt on the tough road due to his age,
which would have caused you distress."
In fact, he had another selfish reason.
Jhiang Yuan, who loved her daughter so much, would follow him, even if it meant using her last ounce of energy,
if he was with Xiao Nuan. The fate of those who were even a step slower outside was clear without saying.
"I appreciate your kindness..."
Don’t do this next time, Jhiang Yuan thought with unshed tears, unable to voice it.
If she weren’t afraid of angering him, she would definitely have expressed her gratitude to his whole family.
"Quick, clear this area out..."
A loud voice rose from outside, and they exchanged glances before simultaneously looking over.
It was the group from the rescue center; they had arrived as well.
The situation didn’t look good; from the entrance, they could see the people were also in a sorry state.
"Aren’t you going to check?"
"What’s there to see, I have my own troubles to deal with,"
he said, closing his eyes to feign sleep, embodying an indifferent attitude.
So much for the bonds of comradeship being stronger than anything else.
Jhiang Yuan rolled her eyes and lay down next to Xiao Nuan.
This chaotic environment was indeed torturous.
No, she had to find a chance to leave this place.
Best to leave on her own, to use that space whenever she wanted.
"Ah, are you blind?"
She was just about to drift off when a scream pierced the air nearby.
"If you stretch your leg out that long, don’t expect me to have eyes on the soles of my feet. Serves you right..."
The person was quite bold, having trodden on someone yet showing no remorse at all.
Zhang Kaiyang was getting anxious too, standing up to confront him.
The bystanders, none daring to speak, all turned to look.
"Huzi..."
"What the fuck..."
The man spoke irritably, but as soon as he made out who was sitting on the ground—Song Yi—he immediately cowered.
"Cap... Captain, why are you here?"
"Apologize..."
Jhiang Yuan felt the tension in the air escalate; the situation was too intense.
"Ah, that... big brother, I’m really sorry. Please forgive me."
He was very agitated and went straight for Zhang Kaiyang’s hand, grabbing it.
"Let go of me..."
"You must forgive me; otherwise, I’m finished."
His plea was earnest, his gaze sincere.
Zhang Kaiyang was bewildered by this sudden turn: "Let go of me, and I will forgive you..."
"That’s great, thank you so much, big brother."
With that, a face full of flattery leaned in close.
"Captain, he’s forgiven me."
"Hmm."
"Captain, we’ve all arrived and are housed in the corridor outside.
Don’t you want to come and see? We all miss you."
Song Yi looked up at him, barely discernible frustration in his sigh.
"Tomorrow morning..."
Yes, it was still the middle of the night.
Without this incident, they would have all been asleep.
Now, everything was interrupted.
Huzi seemed a bit sullen, obviously wanting to get close to Song Yi.
"Right, where’s Little One? How come I haven’t seen it?"
After a week of searching, it really wasn’t there.
"Don’t worry about the commander..."
He was genuinely afraid that Little One had been eaten by someone.
"What are you doing here?"
Huzi scratched his head, looking a bit embarrassed.
"There’s no bathroom outside, and I really need to pee..."
This interruption actually made everyone forget about the matter at hand.
He hurried off to find the bathroom, which was conveniently located nearby; a very user-friendly design.
Song Yi’s mouth twitched almost imperceptibly, his reprimand mingling with a touch of indulgence.
Even though he tried to conceal it, she caught it nonetheless.
To him, this group was probably special.
They were brothers who had once faced life and death together, who had endured countless difficult years.
Not long after Huzi left, another person came over.
Seeing Song Yi, their face lit up with joy.
"Brother Song, you’re really here! I thought Huzi was mistaken."
That person spoke with a hint of pride, a respectful tone on the surface but with a subtle sense of superiority.
Jhiang Yuan was somewhat speechless. One after another, in the dead of night—would it ever end?
"That’s right. Are you all settled in?"
There was a fleeting look of displeasure on that person’s face, but it quickly dissipated.
"Yeah, those who came over temporarily wasted time, otherwise, it would have been done much earlier.
Why are you here? Didn’t the commander keep you in the office?"
That mocking tone made Jhiang Yuan completely recognize him.
This was the person who had fired the gun in the rescue center, seemingly Song Yi’s former deputy.
No wonder he was so smug—it’s hard to entrust him with great responsibilities!
"Is it that hard to understand?"
Boy, the atmosphere instantly became tense and confrontational.
This man just couldn’t bear to be at a disadvantage; the other party’s mouth twitched in disdain.
