Chapter 634
"Wanwan, just stand here and listen with me." Qi Mingyu interrupted him, his eyes calm, "I haven't hidden anything from her!"
Vice Captain Xiao was unexpectedly treated to a wave of dog food, and his expression was quite speechless: "..."
After a pause, he explained, "We need someone to sneak into Himaru Island to scout the Japanese's weapons deployment and troop distribution.
But we lack experienced personnel in this area. That’s why we thought of you, Xiao Qi. You’re a special forces soldier with rich experience, so you’re the best candidate!”
He paused, his eyes sincere, "I know this mission is dangerous, but it's a matter of great importance. I hope you, Xiao Qi, will agree to it!"
Zhou Shuwan frowned slightly and looked at Qi Mingyu.
Qi Mingyu also glanced at her, thought for a moment, and nodded firmly: "Okay, I agree!"
A hint of determination flashed across his expression.
A saying that all veterans know is, "If called upon, I will return to battle!"
This is not only a military order, but also his responsibility as a soldier.
What's more, the current situation is critical and he must do everything he can to protect his family and the survivors in this sea area.
For both public and private reasons, he cannot refuse!
However, when he looked at Zhou Shuwan, there was a hint of guilt in his eyes.
"Great!" Deputy Captain Xiao felt relieved and patted Qi Mingyu on the shoulder: "I knew I was right!"
Now that the other party has agreed, the next step is to coordinate the mission details, including staffing, equipment supply and action plan.
Qi Mingyu needs to follow him back to the warship immediately and deploy as quickly as possible!
Qi Mingyu said, "Please give me a few minutes so I can talk to my family."
Deputy Captain Xiao nodded quickly: "That's as I should! Okay, I'll wait for you on the boat for five minutes."
This mission is indeed very dangerous, and Qi Mingyu really needs to have a good talk with his family.
Qi Mingyu nodded. After Vice Captain Xiao turned and left, he turned to look at Zhou Shuwan, his expression hesitant, as if he didn't know how to start: "Wanwan, I..."
Zhou Shuwan glanced at him and gently held his hand. There was only worry in her eyes, but no blame.
Her palm was soft, which made Qi Mingyu feel tenderness from the bottom of his heart.
He whispered, "Wanwan, don't worry, I will definitely come back alive! I will stay with you and grandma for the rest of my life!"
Zhou Shuwan nodded vigorously: "Okay! I believe you! You are a soldier, this is the promise you made to me, I hope you can do it!"
"Sure!" He tightly grasped the soft hand in his hand.
He spoke to Zhou's parents again, then looked at Mu Mu solemnly: "Mu Mu, after I leave, you will be the biggest support for the family. You must protect your parents, your sister, and grandma!"
Mu Mu nodded seriously.
Zhou Jianghai and Zhong Tiyun also looked at each other, very worried.
Just by looking at the expressions of Zhou Shuwan and Qi Mingyu, you can tell that this is something they have already decided.
Now is the time for young people to have such a happy time. They are already old and don’t get involved in many things. They just remind Qi Mingyu to be careful.
"Xiao Yu, you go first, but you have to come back at least once. Wan Wan and I will prepare your travel bags for you."
Qi Mingyu shook his head: "Since it's a mission, there should be unified requirements on the warship, and there's no need for preparations at home."
"That's right. You should also bring some energy bars and chocolates. These things are small and easy to hide on your body without being discovered by others." Zhong Tiyun said.
Qi Mingyu didn't refuse anymore.
He then asked everyone, "I'll tell Grandma that my mission is to train new recruits on the warship. Please don't let anyone know."
Zhou Jianghai and Zhong Tiyun both agreed: "Yes, it's better not to tell her about this, lest she worry about you! She won't doubt it if you tell her that you're going to train the new recruits!"
Qi Mingyu forced a smile.
Grandma Pang has been in poor health recently and has been lying in the lounge.
I won't go out for a walk on the deck until noon.
But the cruise ship was full of stairs, so Grandma Pang couldn't go anywhere except where the elevator could reach.
The Zhou family was also worried that she would be lonely in the lounge, so they would take turns to accompany her in the lounge.
When Qi Mingyu goes to bed at night, he will sleep in Grandma Pang's clinic if he is not on night duty.
When he was on duty, Zhou Shuwan would consciously sleep in Grandma Pang's clinic.
It can be said that the Zhou family took very good care of Grandma Pang.
Qi Mingyu was very grateful. Although he had long treated Zhou's father and mother as his biological parents, now the Zhou family meant more to him.
Qi Mingyu spoke a few more words to Zhou's parents, then went to visit Grandma Pang with Zhou Shuwan.
As expected, Grandma Pang didn't suspect anything. Her cloudy eyes were filled with a deep sense of pride. "My Xiaoyu is amazing! The warship leader has only known you for a few days and they already know what you're capable of!"
Qi Mingyu held her hand, very patiently, and smiled slightly: "Grandma, I'm not at home these few days. You have to listen to Wanwan. She is a doctor, and you have to listen to everything she says. When to get the infusion, when to take the medicine, what to eat every day, you can't be lazy!"
Grandma Pang blushed as she listened, and glared at him in reproach: "I just said the other day that the medicine was too bitter, but you took it to heart. You always remind me of it whenever you have something to say!"
A smile flashed in Qi Mingyu's eyes.
Old kid, old kid, ever since Grandma Pang fell ill, she sometimes needs to be coaxed.
She didn't want to take the medicine in the past few days, but Qi Mingyu held her hand and persuaded her for a long time before she reluctantly drank it.
Zhou Shuwan couldn't help but laugh: "Brother Xiaoyu, don't worry, I'm at home. Grandma takes medicine very seriously, you don't have to worry too much."
"That's right, Wanwan still understands me." Grandma Pang scolded her again and held Zhou Shuwan's hand affectionately.
Qi Mingyu looked at the two faces in front of him, both smiling and angry, and felt warm in his heart.
This is the meaning of him taking on the task!
For the next two days, Qi Mingyu stayed on the warship and carefully selected team members. Each of them was agile, experienced, loyal and reliable.
They studied the topographic map of Himaru Island, designed action plans, and repeatedly simulated various emergencies.
The warships also provided a large amount of weapons, equipment and material support.
Zhou Shuwan and her parents quietly prepared food and supplies for Qi Mingyu.
Their worries and anxieties were palpable, yet no one talked about it.
Two days later, the day of action finally arrived.
In the evening, Qi Mingyu came back and the family had dinner together. Zhou Shuwan handed over the backpack prepared by his family.
Qi Mingyu put it together with his backpack.
After a brief chat, at dawn, he led the team and left quietly on the warship's speedboat.
On the sea, a light morning mist covered everything.
Today happened to be Zhou Shuwan's night duty, and she had been paying attention to the movements on the warship.
When I heard a speedboat departing over there, I knew it was Qi Mingyu and his group.
