Chapter 192 Departure Immediately
There are often heavy rains in summer, and dark clouds press the sky very low.
The sultry air is like a kind of sticky plankton, and anyone who walks outside will be covered in stickiness.
Feng Ling couldn't believe that he had to run south when it was so hot.
She turned down the air conditioner by two degrees, lay on the sofa watching TV, and waited for Su Yuqing to contact her.
The funeral was being broadcast live on television.
The funeral was held in Yanjing City, and the three inspectors will be buried in the National Martyrs Cemetery.
A large photo of Ye Zheng was placed together with photos of two other inspectors who died in the maze.
The scene was filled with white flowers and light green hydrangeas, with dark green pine branches as the base color, solemn and beautiful.
There is no possibility that Ye Zheng’s body is contained in the coffin. It is most likely that it contains his clothes from his lifetime, or some other items of commemorative value.
Feng Ling saw Su Yuqing appear in the camera for a few seconds. He was wearing a black suit with a white gentian on his chest and had a solemn expression.
As the person closest to Ye Zheng, it makes sense for him to attend the funeral.
Then some shots of family members appeared one after another. Feng Ling didn’t recognize any of them and didn’t know if any of them were Ye Zheng’s family members.
I was lazily watching the live broadcast when the doorbell rang.
Without waiting for Feng Ling to say anything, Huangfu Miaomiao actively ran out to open the door.
Feng Ling turned his head and looked outside. Su Yuqing led two people into the iron door and came towards the sales office. Feng Ling recognized the faces of the two people, but had completely forgotten their names.
"What's his name..." Feng Ling muttered and slowly stood up from the sofa.
He picked up the remote control again and quickly turned off the TV to prevent Su Yuqing from being embarrassed by watching the live broadcast of the funeral.
Su Yuqing introduced them as soon as he entered the room: "This is Xu Yiming, you met him in Daling Forest a few days ago. This is Cao Hongyi, a member of the Qingjiang Branch Special Attack Team. You should have an impression of him, right?"
Feng Ling: “…………”
Yes, but not much.
Cao Hongyi smiled and said, "It's normal that Sister Ling doesn't remember me. We were on a mission in an underground cave that time. The light was poor underground and we couldn't even see her face clearly."
"Ah, you are Lao Cao!" Feng Ling finally remembered, "Why are you here?"
"I'll come over to drive the truck." Cao Hongyi explained, "I have experience in this area. I used to drive a truck to transport military supplies."
Xu Yiming followed up by saying, "Lao Su said he wanted to find someone to drive long distances. It would take more than ten hours on the road, and one driver might not be able to handle it. Cao Hongyi and I can take turns driving."
Feng Ling was quite surprised and subconsciously went to see Su Yuqing - she thought she could just find a truck driver, but she didn't expect Su Yuqing to directly arrange two acquaintances for her.
Su Yuqing seemed to see what she was thinking and said, "You are going to Guangshan City, where alien activities are more frequent and relatively more dangerous, so I want to find two drivers who can protect themselves to avoid accidents on the way."
At this point, he paused for a moment, and then continued, "After Cao Hongyi arrives in Guangshan City, he will fly back to Qingjiang by himself. He is a member of the special attack team and has daily work to do, so he can't stay in Guangshan City for too long. But Xu Yiming will stay, so you can find him when you need a car."
...In fact, Su Yuqing didn't want to find Xu Yiming at all. She called him just to ask him to introduce a reliable hunter.
But Xu Yiming volunteered and was so enthusiastic that I couldn't refuse him at all.
Feng Ling was very happy, "Okay, let's go now." The luggage had been prepared long ago. Feng Ling and Huangfu Miaomiao each carried a backpack, called Li Qing, and prepared to set off immediately.
Su Yuqing warned: "It will rain heavily soon. If the visibility is poor, please stop and rest at a nearby service area. Be sure to pay attention to safety."
"I got it, I got it~" Feng Ling nodded repeatedly, went into the building with his backpack, pulled Ye Zheng out and sat in the truck together.
After a while, the cat spider and the cat owl also crawled in.
The carriage was air-conditioned and had a suitable temperature. There was a sofa chair on one side and the weapon box that Feng Ling needed on the other side. Food and water were also prepared, which was enough to show how meticulous Su Yuqing was.
Cao Hongyi and Xu Yiming discussed it and decided to change shifts every three hours so that neither of them would be too tired.
So the group set off with full preparation but a little hasty.
Su Yuqing watched the truck gradually go away, and stood alone on the side of the road, muttering: "I didn't even have a chance to say goodbye..."
This is all Xu Yiming’s fault.
With Xu Yiming around, Su Yuqing couldn't get rid of him and talk to Ye Zheng alone.
She seemed to have glanced at herself just now, maybe she remembered a little bit...
…………
……
In the truck, Xu Yiming was in high spirits. He talked about Wen Xiuyan being called in for questioning by the General Administration of Supervision, and then asked Feng Ling what he was doing in Guangshan City.
Feng Ling said he was going to Guangshan City to find the maze.
Xu Yiming became even more excited.
Huangfu Miaomiao couldn't bear to watch it anymore. She thought his smile was very silly, and frowned and said, "Uncle, do you want to take a break? You still have to drive in three hours."
Xu Yiming laughed heartily and said, "It's okay! You can rest assured about my driving skills! I used to help people drive trucks to deliver goods, so I can say I have some talent in this area. No matter what kind of car I drive, it will be as obedient as a sheep. I can also drive a cargo ship."
Feng Ling asked curiously: "Then how did you get to know Captain Su?"
"We used to go to the same school," Xu Yiming said with a smile, "Didn't Lao Su tell you? He, Ye Zheng and I used to have a good relationship. Lao Su was a well-known nerd in the school, and Ye Zheng and I were notorious troublemakers. But Ye Zheng stabbed me in the back in her last year, and Lao Su actually changed her personality and started to study seriously! Hahahaha, in the end they both passed the exam, and I was the only one who failed..."
Ye Zheng in the corner of the carriage raised his head slightly, then quickly lowered it again.
She has changed a lot now, and she was wearing a mask, so Xu Yiming didn't recognize her.
Feng Ling took a tube of sedative from the box next to him, came to Ye Zheng, and injected it into her arm while changing the subject as if nothing had happened: "Then how did you become a hunter later?"
Xu Yiming sighed heavily. "It's a long story. One night, my dog suddenly started barking non-stop. I thought there was a thief, so I got a kitchen knife from the kitchen and hid behind the door. The thief outside was probably irritated by the dog's barking, and he actually broke through the glass window and rushed in, biting my dog like a zombie. Oh! I have raised that dog for nine years. When I saw it was bitten, I didn't care about anything else. I picked up the kitchen knife and chopped it hard. When I came to my senses... the thief had been hacked to death by me, and a card appeared on the body..."
Xu Yiming said with a wry smile, "At that time, the thief's body and the dog's body were stacked together, and the card was shining. I thought it was a farewell gift from my dog, so I reached out and touched it. Later I found out that it was an alien card."
He looked at Feng Ling and said self-deprecatingly, "I was quite proud during that time. I thought I might have been blessed by the dog. Not only did I survive, but I also gained super powers. After contacting Ye Zheng and Su Yuqing, I found out that they both already had the cards."
There is only one chapter today. I am so sleepy during the Ghost Festival. Let’s all go to bed early!
