Chapter 514 Hard to Escape
C City and B City were both first-tier cities, with armed forces of the sea, land, and air. Commander Zhang was the head of the military headquarters of the air force and was at the same level as Yi Yunrui. He was shocked by this call from Yi Yunrui.
“Yes, sir, Commander Yi.”
“Hello.” As they were all soldiers, there was not much politeness in speaking. Yi Yunrui directly stated his purpose, “A helicopter took off from C City half an hour ago. Its destination is Japan. I hope Commander Zhang can help me intercept this helicopter. Thank you.”
Commander Zhang at the other end of the mobile phone pondered for a while and then said, “OK. Commander Yi, I’ll talk to you later.”
Although he didn’t have much contact with Yi Yunrui, Commander Zhang knew what he was. He was a legend in the army and everyone worshiped him.
He unconditionally agreed to Yi Yunrui’s request.
After hearing Yi Yunrui’s communication with Commander Zhang, Xia Ning was stunned with surprise.
“God, he can stop a plane with just one phone call… His power is beyond my imagination.” thought Xia Ning.
Realizing that his wife was looking at him dumbfounded, Yi Yunrui said strangely, “What’s the matter?”
“No, nothing.” She just wanted to say he was amazing!
Wait. Yi Yunrui stopped Yuriko Shizuka’s special plane. Did Yi Yunrui suspect that the shooting was made by Yuriko Shizuka?
“Dear, do you think this shooting incident is related to Yuriko Shizuka?”
“There is no evidence that this matter is directly related to her.”
“… And then why do you want to do this?”
Yi Yunrui winked and his mouth rose slightly, “Just discuss some important things with Yuriko Shizuka and promote ‘Friendship and Cooperation’.”
It was unexpected that her husband would give such a reply, and Xia Ning was very surprised and opened her mouth wide.
In order to calm his wife, Yi Yunrui cooked many dishes and set up a full table.
Xia Ning saw that Yi Yunrui was putting rice into a lunch box and she thought of the injured Xiaoniao in the hospital, “Dear, is this sent to Xiaoniao?”
Yi Yunrui nodded, “Man and Buzzard like to eat it very much. The more seriously injured Xiaoniao is, the more Xiaoniao eat. These liquid foods and cakes are specially prepared for him.”
After hearing that, Xia Ning was moved. “My husband doesn’t talk about the Xiaoniao’s injury at all on the surface, but he is very concerned about it in his heart. However, in his heart, I’m the first, so he takes care of me first.” thought Xia Ning.
“No need to think so much. As there is dinner in the hospital, Buzzard won’t be hungry. Just eat your dinner, and then we’ll go.” Realizing his wife’s worry, Yi Yunrui freed up one hand and gently caressed her black hair.
Xia Ning nodded. In front of others, Yi Yunrui’s image was an unsmiling and upright soldier, but in front of her, he was an extremely gentle and considerate husband.
After eating, they bought some fruits and went to the hospital of the military region in C City to visit Xiaoniao.
The gunshot wound to Xiaoniao’s chest had been treated. The wound was in the lungs and many tubes were inserted into his body. He was pale but he had a lollipop in his mouth.
“He really enjoys sweets.” thought Xia Ning.
As soon as they came in, Xiaoniao wanted to salute, but Yi Yunrui waved his hand, “No need to do that. Just lie down.”
And then Man came in with a vase in her hands. Seeing Yi Yunrui and Xia Ning coming, Man saluted and said, “Hello, Commander Yi and madam!”
Yi Yunrui nodded and Xia Ning asked, “Man, have you eaten yet?”
Man blinked and she had been taking care of Xiaoniao. She had no time to eat so she shook her head and said, “I haven’t eaten for the time being.”
Xia Ning took out the lunch box. Her husband was very careful and prepared a lot of food of various types. There were liquid food, meals, cakes, and dishes.
Seeing the lunch box, Man and Xiaoniao watched open-eyed at the same time, just like the cat saw the mouse, which made other people here laugh.
“Thank you, madam!” Man didn’t wait for Xia Ning to bring the meal over, walked forward directly, and ate it quickly.
Xiaoniao who was lying on the bed was inconvenient to salute. When he saw Man was eating, he was amazed. Man squinted at him, “Didn’t you eat just now? What are you looking at?”
“… I’m not full…” Because of the injury in the lungs, Xiaoniao said weakly, which made Xia Ning laugh and speechless.
Xia Ning picked out cakes and liquid food and brought them to Xiaoniao, “Don’t worry, you have a share.”
Xiaoniao smelled delicious porridge and cakes and moved his body, but he was pressed by Xia Ning, “Don’t move, just let me do it.”
Hearing that, Xiaoniao was stunned and he looked at Xia Ning’s moves as if she wanted to feed himself.
Xiaoniao was amazed and Xia Ning handed a spoonful of porridge to his lips, “Come here. Open your mouth.”
Xiaoniao stared at Xia Ning and turned to Yi Yunrui, feeling incredible.
“You are shot and inconvenient to move. Let your madam feed you.” Yi Yunrui said, picked a ripe peach, sat aside, and peeled it.
Xia Ning handed the spoon forward and said, “We are all a family, so don’t be embarrassed.”
Hearing this, Xiaoniao’s face turned red. Xiaoniao looked at Man and was reluctantly fed by her sister-in-law. He would rather Man feed him…
“Open your mouth quickly, porridge will be cold, and it is not good for your health.” Xia Ning gently urged.
“Madam… Well…” As soon as he opened his mouth, Xia Ning fed him. After eating porridge, Xiaoniao was still excited.
All along, he had been a loner, and no one had ever taken care of him like that except his mother.
Another spoonful of porridge was handed over and Xia Ning said, “Just finish it quickly, otherwise, I will be tired if I hold my hand for a long time.”
After hearing that, Xiaoniao quickly ate a spoonful of porridge.
Xia Ning laughed. “Although these soldiers are very serious all day, they are gentler and cuter than anyone else.” thought Xia Ning.
Xia Ning knew that Xiaoniao ate too much. She was also afraid that he was embarrassed. She just fed him three bowls of porridge. In the end, Xiaoniao still held cakes in his hand and chewed them by himself. Yi Yunrui cut the peeled fruits and put them next to him. Each piece was inserted with a toothpick, which was convenient for him to eat.
Xia Ning and Yi Yunrui’s actions were witnessed by Xiaoniao who was moved and wanted to thank them.
He was an orphan and had no relatives. Every time he was injured or ill, he gritted his teeth and never thought that others would take care of him. This idea was too unrealistic for him.
However, the actions of his sister-in-law and Commander Yi had shocked him. Commander Yi was the commander of a military region, who had always been served by others. He didn’t expect him to condescend to visit him in the hospital now. Not only that, but he also managed everything for him.
He was really touched.
Xiaoniao bowed his head and ate cakes and fruits, keeping silent, but his eyes were full of tears. All this was clearly seen by Man next to him.
She knew well what Xiaoniao thought. She knew what kind of person Commander Yi was, who never pressed people by his status. She had been injured before and Commander Yi once took care of her like her sister-in-law today.
Her sister-in-law was sincere and she didn’t pretend to do that. All of this was witnessed by her. At that moment, she finally understood why Commander Yi loved Xia Ning so much. They were really made for each other.
They were good people.
“Xiaoniao, what do you want to eat? I will bring it to you tomorrow.”
Xiaoniao opened his eyes slightly, “Madam… That’s enough…”
“He has a good appetite. Dear, just bring what you want.” Yi Yunrui replied with a smile on his face.
Hearing that, Xiaoniao smiled bitterly.
He couldn’t remember how long he hadn’t laughed, but at this moment he was really touched. He liked to eat everything because he was afraid of not having things to eat. The horrible and tragic experience he suffered when he was a child lingered like a nightmare. Therefore, he believed people lived and had to eat, which was the best.
The door of the ward was knocked a few times. Zhang Hai came in and handed Yi Yunrui the mobile phone, “Boss, Mr. Yan is calling.”
Yi Yunrui was slightly shocked. It seemed that something had been found. The time stipulated by him was twenty-four hours and now it took only one hour. It could be seen that Mr. Yan was quite capable.
Yi Yunrui took the phone, “Hello, Mr. Yan.”
“Commander Yi, hello.” The voice at the other end of the mobile phone was respectful and humble, “I have some clues about the shooting at noon. However, the forces involved in this matter are too great, which are not easily handled by me and beyond my capability. I hope you understand.”
Hearing this, Yi Yunrui had a general idea in his heart, “OK, I get it. Thank you, Mr. Yan.”
“You’re welcome. It is our duty to cooperate with military forces to combat against foreign evil forces.” Mr. Yan politely said, “This is the fact that I know. The killer who shot at noon belongs to a killer group named Angel of Death. As long as the money is affordable, the group will do anything. All the people in this group are elites and most of them are mercenaries. I happen to know some people there, who said that the person who gave the money was Japanese. It’s related to the Third Rear Group. Commander Yi, that’s what I know.”
Yi Yunrui winked and said, “OK, I get it. Thank you.”
Without saying anything, Yi Yunrui hung up the mobile phone.
“It’s you, Yuriko Shizuka!” thought Yi Yunrui.
Yi Yunrui was very calm and Xia Ning came over. When Yi Yunrui saw her, he reached out and hugged her into his arms, “My Love, sorry. I neglected it at noon.”
“You have important things to do in the military region, so don’t talk about yourself like that.” Xia Ning gently patted her husband’s hand, and she knew that Yi Yunrui felt guilty, but she hoped her husband would understand that it was not his fault.
He sipped his mouth and pondered for a while. Actually, he should have thought this would happen a long time ago, and he was too indulgent of Yuriko Shizuka.
If it hadn’t been for his lack of vigilance, would Yuriko Shizuka have had the courage to do so?
For some people and some things, he should do things simply and decisively, without mercy!
“No, it’s all my fault.” Yi Yunrui held his wife’s hands tightly and he had already decided something in his heart.
At this moment, Zhang Hai’s mobile phone rang. Zhang Hai glanced at the number and said, “Boss, it’s Commander Zhang’s call.”
Yi Yunrui took the phone, “Hello, Commander Zhang.”
“Hello, Commander Yi. The helicopter flying to Yamato is intercepted. We’re waiting for your following order.”
Yi Yunrui thought it for a while and said, “Let this plane land and let it land at C City International Airport.”
“Yes, sir.”
