Chapter 32
Holding the freezer box with the antiviral serum, Chen Mo stepped off the off-road vehicle and walked step by step into the middle of the road.
For a moment, he suddenly felt that what he was holding in his arms was no longer antiviral serum, but a box of Lao Gan Ma brought from China, about to be distributed to those team members with starry eyes waiting to be fed.
Or perhaps a box of toys, a box of gifts.
He had carefully prepared them, put them in a box, and was going to give them to his son and his wife, wanting to give them a surprise.
At the final moment of his life, he admitted he wasn't that noble—
He didn't want to be any hero saving lives; he just wanted to be a captain, an ordinary father, and a qualified husband...
A warm wind, carrying the heavy scent of gunpowder, blew toward him.
Chen Mo saw the pitch-black muzzles not far away being raised toward him.
He suddenly curled his lips into a smile.
Then he lifted his legs and ran rapidly in the opposite direction of the off-road vehicle.
"Come on! You bunch of inhuman beasts!" Chen Mo shouted while running:
"You are simply cancer cells of humanity! You are a tumor of mankind, you are the locusts of this land!"
A bullet whistled past his ear with a "whoosh"!
Chen Mo's heart jumped violently.
Yet the next second, the figure of the rebel leader not far away suddenly fell to the ground without warning. Chen Mo saw his body crash to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust, and then after twitching a few times, he lay motionless.
Immediately following that was the second, the third...
The figures of the rebels fell one after another, like wheat being harvested.
Chen Mo widened his eyes abruptly, only then realizing that those bullets from just now were not fired at him from the opposite side, but...
Were they fired from behind him?
However, before he could even turn around, he heard a "rumbling" engine sound from behind. Then, a powerful force pulled his arm and threw him behind a large tree.
"Hide here, don't move!"
He saw a tall and handsome figure in camouflage appear behind him out of nowhere. The man was riding a black motorcycle, rushing toward the opposite side like a lightning bolt.
The motorcycle kicked up rolling dust, like a yellow dragon, crushing into the ranks of the rebels.
The moment the motorcycle neared the rebels, the man lightly tapped his toes on the ground, used the momentum to leap into the air, and traced a beautiful arc in the sky.
Upon landing, his black leather boots took root firmly, splashing up dust. He quickly drew the dagger from his waist; a cold light flashed, the blade sliced through the air, forcing back the approaching rebels. Seeing this, the rebels raised their guns to aim, but the man moved with agility, weaving through the hail of bullets like a ghost, his dagger striking with precision. In the blink of an eye, he had disarmed several rebels.
The remaining small fry saw this, their eyes widening in disbelief, scared out of their wits.
They turned and fled in a flash.
In just the blink of an eye, the rebels scattered and fled. Chen Mo, hiding behind the tree, was stunned!
This skill... he must be a special forces soldier!
After a while, the dust settled. Chen Mo cautiously looked around, then hugged the freezer box and walked out from behind the large tree.
At this time, Lin Xiaoman and Shi Yi also stepped out of the off-road vehicle and came to the side of the special forces soldier in camouflage.
The special forces soldier was completely wrapped in camouflage, wearing a beret and a scarf on his head, and black sunglasses on his face. Although his features were unclear, he just seemed heroic and possessed a distinguished temperament.
"Thank you."
Chen Mo couldn't tell for a moment whether the man before him was Chinese or a foreigner, so he spoke in English and politely bowed deeply to him.
"Thank you so much for your help!"
Shi Yi and Lin Xiaoman also bowed to the young man.
The person opposite did not answer immediately, but instead sized up the three people one by one. Finally, his gaze seemed to pause in Shi Yi's direction for a moment.
"Heh, we're all Chinese, what's with the thanks."
The man suddenly smiled, his voice as crisp and pleasant as jade.
"You... you are Chinese?" Lin Xiaoman's face was full of surprise and joy!
The young man nodded, "Mm."
Just then, Chen Mo suddenly felt the temperature of the freezer box in his hands didn't seem right... He looked down carefully and saw that a large hole had been punctured in the bottom of the freezer box at some point, and the coolant liquid inside was continuously leaking out.
"Oh no, the freezer box was hit by a stray bullet!" Chen Mo's expression changed.
Lin Xiaoman hurried forward to check, and after a moment, she also said with a worried expression:
"The damage to the freezer box is severe. In this situation, the serum inside can only last for about three more hours at most, but..."
She turned to look at the off-road vehicle stuck in the mud with its tires ruined, her tone helpless.
"Even if we drive from here, it will take about 4 hours to reach the refugee camp. At this temperature, once the serum loses its refrigeration, it will immediately become ineffective..."
"The tires can be changed, there is a spare tire in the trunk, but... even if we change it, it's too late!"
Shi Yi was also burning with anxiety at this moment. This box of serum was something Dr. Chen and Xiao Manjie had protected with their lives! If it really became ineffective, all their hard work would be for nothing! Moreover, there were so many people in the refugee camp waiting for this serum to save their lives.
The air fell into a terrifying silence. Just then, that cold, clear voice from across sounded again:
"The motorcycle, you can borrow it."
In an instant, everyone's gaze immediately gathered on the black motorcycle parked beside the young man. It was a military motorcycle, looking tall and cool, the body emitting a gleaming metallic luster.
Lin Xiaoman's eyes lit up, "Wow! This motorcycle is too cool! And the speed should be faster than the off-road vehicle!"
"Top speed is 320 kilometers per hour."
"That's great! Then we should be able to reach the refugee camp in less than 3 hours! Let's set off quickly!"
As Lin Xiaoman said this, she swung her long leg and nimbly straddled the motorcycle. She raised her hand to turn the throttle, and the motorcycle immediately let out a "rumbling" roar.
Chen Mo looked at Lin Xiaoman with some worry and pursed his lips, "No, Xiaoman, you... can you even drive a motorcycle?"
Lin Xiaoman smiled with full confidence:
"Of course! There isn't a vehicle in the world that I, Lin Xiaoman, can't drive. I even want to try a fighter jet! Don't worry, I will definitely deliver the serum safely!"
"Wait! I'm going with you!" Chen Mo said, quickly hugging the freezer box and sitting on the back seat of the motorcycle. He wrapped one arm tightly around Lin Xiaoman's waist and looked at the young man with eyes full of gratitude:
"Young man, we will come back immediately after delivering the serum, and then we will thank you properly!"
With a "boom," the motorcycle flew out like an arrow released from a bowstring.
"Dr. Chen, Xiao Manjie! You must be careful!" Shi Yi chased after the motorcycle.
From ahead came Dr. Chen's fading shouts: "Xiao Yi, wait for us here, the young man is left to you!"
Shi Yi: "... Okay."
A setting sun slowly descended.
Lin Xiaoman and Chen Mo's motorcycle disappeared on the horizon in an instant. Shi Yi turned around and saw that under the sunset, the special forces soldier lowered his head, took off the mask on his face, a smile playing on the corners of his mouth, and walked slowly toward her.
Shi Yi's heart was shocked.
It was actually him?!
