After getting out of the car, Zhang Hui saw Xia Nan fumbling for her phone. He subconsciously checked his pockets and found that his phone was also missing.

Seeing the number she dialed, it was the hotline of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China. Listening to Xia Nan rambling on about the Zaka organization and how this organization had kidnapped several employees of the energy company.

Most importantly, among these employees is a Chinese citizen named Deng Mei.

That's amazing! No wonder he's a journalist; he really knows how to grasp the main issue. Of all the information, only that last sentence hits the other party's sore spot.

Terrorists, kidnapping employees—who cares about you in this situation! Just say that Zaka arrested Chinese citizen Deng Mei, and that alone will force the other side to send people to rescue her.

Zhang Hui searched the entire vehicle but found nothing useful. Then he waited for Xia Nan to finish her call.

"Sis, what's inside the necklace William wore? These terrorists who're chasing us are after that, right?" Zhang Hui asked immediately after Xia Nan hung up the phone.

"It contains the technology to manufacture dirty bombs, which are nuclear contamination bombs." Xia Nan knew that Zhang Hui would not stand idly by in this situation, so she told him what she knew.

"Did you know that they already have a source of yellowcake, which is a raw material for making nuclear weapons? Now they even have the technology for dirty bombs. In the next terrorist attack, they might use these things, and who knows how many people will be harmed then?"

Xia Nan became increasingly angry as she spoke, and even stood up to curse these terrorists.

"Sister, don't worry about these for now. I've already got the necklace." As he spoke, Zhang Hui handed over the necklace.

Xia Nan picked up the necklace and opened it. After a while, she opened the mechanism inside and saw the small USB drive. She knew that what she was looking for was inside, and finally relaxed and unfurrowed her brow.

Then Xia Nan's phone rang again. Zhang Hui knew it was a call from China, probably to confirm information. Someone should be coming to pick them up and take them to a location controlled by the government forces.

Zhang Hui nodded to Xia Nan and ran towards where Abu was hiding. The three of them should be safe for the time being.

Soon, the Ivia government forces, which were affiliated with China, sent vehicles to pick them up, and their destination was a temporary assembly point of the government in the northeast.

There would be a group of people who needed to evacuate together over there, so that was the only place the three of them could go for the time being.

Xia Nan's image reassured the people of Ivia, and she was the main person they communicated with.

Xia Nan referred to Zhang Hui as her personal bodyguard, and it's understandable why she said that; Zhang Hui's appearance was far from ordinary. Because Abu had injured his calf, Zhang Hui simply carried him while he stood up.

He could easily carry an adult, not only but also a rifle, his tactical vest was full of various types of ammunition, and with sunglasses and a scarf covering his mouth, he looked like a seasoned mercenary.

After the three got on the bus, Zhang Hui was finally able to check his haul.

I said to myself, "Open the reward information," and then I heard a series of ringing sounds.

[The plot has changed due to the host's actions; 9 unallocated points will be awarded as a reward!]

[The plot has changed due to the host's actions; 16 unallocated points will be awarded as a reward!]

[The plot has changed due to the host's actions; 1 unallocated points will be awarded as a reward!]

[The plot has changed due to the host's actions; 26 unallocated points will be awarded as a reward!]

[The plot has changed due to the host's actions; 21 unallocated points will be awarded as a reward!]

These four rewards are, in order: killing the three people who came out of the building, blowing up the pursuing vehicle with three grenades, reminding Xia Nan to pick up medicine, saving Abu, and finally stealing the necklace.

Adding the 3 points he lost at the beginning, he gained 76 points in just half a day. It seems that interfering with the plot in this direction wasn't too bad.

Moreover, judging from the reward information displayed, it seems that he will get 3 points for killing a terrorist. Could this be a bug that allows him to get points?

Never mind, there are still several major battles to fight. We'll just start fighting when the time comes.

The swaying of the car made Zhang Hui close his eyes to rest. When they arrived at the temporary government army assembly point, Zhang Hui carried Abu to the nearby relief station as soon as he got out of the car.

Xia Nan was also taken inside to have her facial wounds treated. Abu's calf was in bad shape; the doctor said it was a bone injury, and he could only stay there to recover for the time being.

The number of civilians awaiting evacuation in the next evacuation has been determined, and Abd will proceed with the evacuation operation after that.

Xia Nan wanted to go up and talk to him, thinking of taking Abu with her. Zhang Hui, upon hearing this, immediately thought to himself: If he were to be taken along, they might just die on the way. There's no need to send him to his death.

Besides, in this retreat encounter, would it be appropriate to carry someone first when the fighting starts? It wouldn't be good to bring a wounded soldier into the battlefield.

Zhang Hui then began to persuade Xia Nan, ultimately convincing her to give up because forcing Abu to retreat might cause him to become lame.

After reassuring Xia Nan, she went into the tent to personally explain the situation to Abu. Zhang Hui looked up and saw a convoy of cars approaching from a distance; the leader of the convoy looked familiar as soon as he got out of the car.

Although the man's attire told him he wasn't Shi Jin, Zhang Hui still wanted to make contact. However, his unusual clothing made the others somewhat wary as he approached.

Standing in front of the man, Zhang Hui took off his sunglasses and pulled down his scarf, and said to him in Mandarin, "Hello! I am Xia Nan's younger brother, my name is Zhang Hui."

He extended his hand as he spoke, appearing very polite.

"Hello, I am Yang Rui, the captain of the Jiaolong Commando Team. Our superiors have assigned us to escort you to the government army's bases along the way." As soon as the other party spoke, Zhang Hui knew his personality; he was all business and official.

Before Zhang Hui could say anything, Xia Nan's voice came from behind him. Zhang Hui immediately stepped aside, making room for Xia Nan, letting this older sister give Yang Rui some trouble.

Thinking back to the first day he met Shi Jin, the other person also seemed to be having a lot of headaches because of Xu Baishun. Zhang Hui couldn't help but chuckle to himself when he recalled it.

Listening to Xia Nan's incessant chatter, Zhang Hui stood by, watching the two's contest without saying a word, like a spectator watching a play.

Finally, Yang Rui could no longer tolerate Xia Nan's entanglement. He paused for a moment and said to Xia Nan in a very formal manner, "Miss Xia, the mission we are to carry out is to rescue a Chinese citizen."

"If possible, we will try to save as many people as possible."

"But, I'm sorry!"

"You cannot participate in this operation with us!"

Yang Rui's reasoned and well-founded words made Zhang Hui want to applaud, of course, if he weren't Xia Nan's brother.

"If I don't go with you, I won't be able to get what I want!" Xia Nan said, her voice trembling with emotion.

Zhang Hui understood her situation. They had already obtained the dirty bomb technology from the necklace, and now all they needed was the yellowcake ingredient. At this point, no one would give up at the last minute.

If you didn't know Xia Nan's past, you'd probably dislike her for clinging to Yang Rui like this. But there's nothing you can do about it; if she had the chance, she probably would have bravely stormed the terrorists' hideout alone.

"Please get in the car!" Yang Rui said to Xia Nan, raising his hand and remaining unmoved by either soft or hard tactics.

Xia Nan was so angry that she shut herself off and walked away with a flick of her hand.

Yang Rui's words about not letting the other party leave immediately broke Xia Nan's defenses. While the other party was still repeating his mission, Xia Nan directly grabbed the other party's communication equipment.

Seeing Xia Nan's action, Zhang Hui stopped her, not entirely to help Yang Rui out of the predicament, but also because he didn't want everyone present to feel awkward.

Xia Nan shouted angrily. Zhang Hui pulled her away and said to Xia Nan sternly, "Sis! Calm down!"

"They are soldiers, unlike us. Soldiers are duty-bound to obey orders, so nothing you say now will make a difference."

"Furthermore, you should be thankful they are Chinese soldiers. If they were from other countries, such an act of grabbing a soldier's communication equipment would warrant immediate shooting, you know?"

Zhang Hui's last words finally stopped Xia Nan from going crazy, but the next sentence was something Xia Nan found hard to accept.

"I'll beat you to death, and the other party won't bear any responsibility!" Zhang Hui said, and quickly walked towards Yang Rui.
