Chapter 421 Evacuation

However, the sweet time between the two was only at the end of lunch. Long Chengxuan was going to have a lunch break with his wife, but a phone call took him away immediately. Before getting on the bus, he suddenly hugged Zhang Xiaomo and kissed him hard: "Take care for yourself!"

"Don't worry." Not far away, Luo Gang and Li Qiang appeared behind Zhang Xiaomo again. The last time was an accident, and no one expected that such a thing would happen in the camp. But it was also their dereliction of duty, so that in the past few days after she came back, both of them were embarrassed to appear in front of her.

Now that all the people in Long Chengxuan and his team are leaving, the responsibility to protect Zhang Xiaomo will naturally fall on the two of them again.

After Long Chengxuan and his other cars disappeared, Zhang Xiaomo turned around and looked at the two of them, smiled, and then walked over: "What? I haven't seen each other for half a month, and I don't know me anymore?"

"...Sister-in-law, I'm sorry!"

"The last time was not your fault. What's wrong with me? If you really want to blame me, I can only blame that..." As she said, she remembered that until now, she didn't know which thief in the camp was. But she has never been a tangled person: "Anyway, this is not your fault. Don't take everything into consideration, do you know?"

"yes!"

Li Qiang has never talked much. When the three of them were together, Luo Gang was always speaking on behalf of everyone, and now the same is true. After a glance at his silent companion, Luo Gang said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, this time, Li Qiang and I will guard us well and we will definitely not let you do anything again."

Looking at the two of them, Zhang Xiaomo smiled: "Okay, I'll ask you for my safety."

In fact, as far as her personality is concerned, she doesn't like to bother others like this. But in the current situation, if she doesn't let the two of them follow, they will be even more self-blame and guilty. In order for the two of them to leave any bad thoughts, she nodded and agreed.

After another day of rest, Zhang Xiaomo could not stay at home and went directly to the hospital. Although Director Shang wanted her to rest for a few more days, he could not resist her persistence and could only follow her.

However, everyone found that Dr. Zhang, who worked in the hospital, was much more energetic than the day he just came back, and this situation also made everyone feel relieved. Some people laughed and said that the hospital was the best place for her to recuperate. As long as she worked, she would be more energetic than anyone else.

She didn't comment on such a word, but she was really happy when she worked. At least, her energy was distracted and her busy work allowed her to not think about what danger Long Chengxuan would encounter outside, nor did she think about whether she was still afraid of the past. For her now, working and curing her patients is the most important thing.

But even so, the outside world is getting more and more chaotic and the hospital begins to receive more and more wounded people, and everyone's mood continues to sink. No one knows what will happen tomorrow. Although this is a military camp, it is just a peacekeeping camp. Without the approval of the above, no military operation is allowed.

It was not until this time that she understood why the Long family had to negotiate with a small country like Scalan last time. As long as there was an overseas garrison base, anything happened, the country would send troops to protect its citizens.

But that was in Scalan, and the base was only under construction. Not to mention that the situation is now in chaos, and the distance cannot relieve the near fire. Everyone can only pray that tomorrow will be better amid the sound of gunfire.

Just after the evening shift that day, when Zhang Xiaomo was about to return to the dormitory, Lin Xi came over: "Doctor Zhang, there is an order from him. I will clean up tonight. All non-combatants will evacuate to the nearby dock warships. I will set off tomorrow morning."

She was stunned for a moment. Although she had known that such a thing would happen, she didn't expect it to be so soon. Are they going to evacuate less than a week after Long Chengxuan left?

"Dr. Zhang?"

When she found herself in a daze and didn't answer the other party, she nodded apologetically: "I understand, I will pack up tonight. Have you all notified me?"

"I just received the message and am preparing to inform everyone."

"Thank you for your hard work in Team Lin." Knowing that the other party had a task, she didn't say anything more and went back to the dormitory directly.

When she arrived at the door of the dormitory, she turned around and said to Luo Gang who had been following her, "There is no need for two people here, you can pack up your things alone first." Although she said that, she was still a little confused. Lin Xi said it very clearly just now. It is true that Luo Gang and Li Qiang have been protecting her all the non-combatants evacuated, but in the same way, they are actually part of the combatants.

Seeing his thoughts, Luo Gang grinned: "Sister-in-law, don't worry about us. There must be combatants on the warship to protect everyone, so don't worry about safety. As for us, it is a good thing to be able to follow the ship to protect everyone. If you are stayed, it's just to fulfill our responsibilities, so don't worry."

Li Qiang, who was standing beside him, nodded and said in a rare way: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, hurry up and pack up and have a sleep. It's not as easy to sleep on the boat as it is on the ground."

Knowing that he was powerless to change, Zhang Xiaomo nodded slightly: "Okay!" Then he went back to the room and started to pack up his things.

In the blink of an eye, I have been living here for more than five months. According to the initial reservation, they can return to China in six months, but now it seems unlikely. Let’s not talk about Long Chengxuan not coming back yet. Just the situation in front of me, I’m afraid they can leave just by wanting to leave.

While thinking about these things, she started to collect the house. She didn't know if she didn't pack up, but when she packed up, she realized that her luggage was much more than when she came. There were many more injured soldiers in her bags, gifts given to her by local people, and Sister Zheng and others. She would bring her gifts every time she went out for a mission.

These gifts that are full of heart and distinctive are what she likes, so each one is left and carefully preserved. I don’t feel it yet, but when I cleaned it up today, I realized that I had collected so many. So... in the past five months, how many surgeries have she had done and how many people she saved? She can’t remember it clearly.

Now it seems that it is not unreasonable that she has a good popularity in the hospital.

She smiled like a self-deprecatingly, and she continued to pack her things. But when she touched Long Chengxuan's desk, she didn't know what to do. In the end, she decided to keep the desk as it was.

Although Long Chengxuan didn't say it, his work was confidential. Even if there weren't those things on the table, she thought it would be better for her to not touch it, so as not to make things difficult for him in the future.

Apart from these, she didn't have many things, just a few simple pieces of clothes, two pairs of shoes, plus toiletries, and a small box was enough to put them all in. As for quilts, she didn't have to worry about them. One, there must be bedding on the boat, and the other, if Long Chengxuan and the others come back, they still need these. So she was too lazy to collect them.

Lying on the bed, she closed her eyes gently, as Li Qiang said, maybe she couldn't rest on the ground for a long time. While she was still down to earth, she would better take a rest as soon as possible.

Sure enough, early in the morning the next day, before everyone even had breakfast, they were urged to board the bus, and escorted by several armored vehicles in front and behind, and sent everyone to the dock. Looking at the warships with the Chinese flag on the dock, many people couldn't help but sigh. Only Zhang Xiaomo, because he had encountered pirates when he went to Scalan with everyone before, and was finally escorted to Scalan by the South China Sea Fleet, so he was not very unfamiliar with the warships and his reaction was a little calmer.

After boarding the boat, everyone was quickly assigned a cabin. Considering that everyone was a medical staff, the cabin was arranged in a good location, not at the bottom, but in the middle. Zhang Xiaomo and Xiaoxia were the ones who were in the room, and they were most happy that there was a small round window in the room. Although it was just a small window and the main lighting still had to rely on lights, they were already very happy for them.

After packing up the things, Xiaoxia asked Zhang Xiaomo: "Doctor Zhang, how long do you think we will stay here?"

"I don't know, maybe it may take a few weeks or months. But if it really takes a few months, I think it's more likely that we might return to China." Zhang Xiaomo calmly packed up his own things. But she just put away the things she needed for daily use. She was considering whether to take people back to China if she was to take someone back to China.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Xia was no longer curious and packed up her things with her: "That's right. If everyone really returned to the boat, we probably wouldn't have anything to do. It would be better to send us back to China if we left us here for a few months. But... Dr. Zhang, Team Dragon hasn't come back yet, aren't you worried?"

Not worried? How is that possible? Zhang Xiaomo raised his eyes and saw the worry in Xiaoxia's eyes. She shook her head: "Axuan has his own job, and it's useless to worry about it. You can't let him quit his job because I'm worried, right? Besides, their jobs are not something they can quit just by wanting to."

This is true, but for some reason, I am always a little depressed.

Seeing Xiaoxia like this, Zhang Xiaomo did not persuade her, but just smiled and continued the work. Soon, she packed up her things: "I'll go to the ward to get familiar with the environment. Take your time."

"Oh, OK!"

Outside the door, Luo Gang and Li Qiang were gone, and they were left behind because they were fighting personnel. She had no choice but to do this arrangement, after all, the army was not run by her family. The only thing she could pray now is that they would not encounter war and be safe.

After all, this is also a matter for other countries and has nothing to do with them. If there is really a battle, no one can blame everyone for evacuating early. I just hope that they don’t encounter any trouble when retreating.

Time was just passing it day by day, a little boring, but fortunately she was not a person who liked the excitement. Usually she stayed in the camp, and basically only had two places: dormitory and hospital. Most of the time, her three meals were made by others from the cafeteria for her. So she was more at ease than ordinary people when she stayed on the boat.

The only thing she didn't get used to was probably that Long Chengxuan had no news, and that she was really not used to living on the boat. Although the warships did not sway like small boats, it would take some time for people who had lived on land for a long time to get used to this kind of life. Fortunately, the sunrise and sunset every day can help her pass a little time so that she would not miss someone too much, nor would she care too much about the gently swaying hull.

On this day, she had just gotten off work and stood on the deck and looked at the starry sky on the sea, and suddenly there was a loud noise, and an explosion occurred not far from the dock. Her first reaction was to lie down and then move carefully into the cabin.

At this time, the guards on the ship also began to act, holding weapons, and there were many searchlights on the ship firing around in order to find out whether there were enemies approaching.

Fortunately, there was no other movement after the explosion. Not long after, someone came back and reported that a warehouse exploded at the west pier because it was a warehouse from another country, and they didn't know whether the explosion was accidental or man-made.

But it is precisely because of this reason that the superiors still made a decision to evacuate.
