Chapter 62

Through the iron window on the wall, Shi Yi saw the sky outside gradually brightening.

At first, the night was like a piece of dark blue silk; gradually, a hint of fish-belly white appeared on the horizon, like paint someone had gently smudged, and then this white gradually spread and expanded, and the light seeped in bit by bit, becoming brighter little by little...

Since she was a child, Shi Yi had never watched a sunrise completely; she discovered for the first time that the sunrise was so beautiful...

Unfortunately, she would never see it again.

Shi Yi thought that the US military's missile carrier vehicles should be parked at the foot of the mountain by now...

In another hour, half an hour, or ten minutes, a few minutes later... a huge missile would descend from the sky like a doomsday judgment.

With the power to destroy everything and end everything.

Thinking of this, Shi Yi suddenly curled her lips and smiled.

Her life had indeed been like a joke. She had never received love from her parents since she was a child, and her brother and sister also treated her like an enemy... The only childhood sweetheart she had deeply trusted betrayed her at the critical moment.

She had struggled, resisted, and tried hard to escape... but those people still wouldn't let her go.

But fortunately...

In the final stage of her life, she met a group of people—they were her true friends, confidants, and comrades.

Doctor Chen, Xiao Manjie, Yu Tongjie, Lao Jiu, Wang Yang...

They were Shi Yi's redemption, the people she cherished most, and the only beauty and warmth in her life.

At the last moment of her life, being able to save Yu Tongjie and personally avenge Xiao Manjie and Lao Jiu, she had died without regrets.

By the way... and that Qin Hao Bei, she didn't know if he had forgotten her. But it would be better to forget... anyway, they couldn't meet again.

In a daze, Shi Yi remembered the night not long ago when she and Qin Hao Bei sat under the starry sky watching the stars.

"Shen Xingyao... heh..."

Shi Yi was lost in memories, the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

"Know why I'm called Shen Xingyao?" she muttered to herself: "Because... I want to be a star, a distant star... shining alone in the darkness... without needing to borrow anyone's light..."

Just then, a "bang" suddenly came from outside! The iron door was pushed open violently.

A soldier in camouflage uniform walked in aggressively, holding a gun against Shi Yi's head.

"Come with me!"

Shi Yi sat on the straw mat and didn't move at all. She sneered: "Where to? Heh, stop messing around, don't you know yet? The US military's missiles will fly over in a while, we'll all die, not a single one will escape..."

"Stop talking nonsense!"

The soldier pulled the rope hard, and Shi Yi's body was immediately pulled up by a great force, forced to stand up with a stumble.

"Go!"

Soon, Shi Yi was brought into a pitch-black basement, which was even more gloomy and eerie than the torture room just now. The air was cold and damp, floating with a faint smell of decay, there were no windows around, and only a pale light bulb was lit on the ceiling.

Shi Yi's heart sank, and a bad premonition suddenly surged in her heart.

It was already bright, why hadn't the US missiles been launched yet? What were they still waiting for?!

Could it be that someone really wanted to save her?

But that missile, to her at this moment, was not destruction, but redemption! She was already impatient to rush toward death!

The next second, a heavy sound of footsteps came from not far away.

Immediately after, a familiar face, as gloomy and terrifying as a poisonous snake, appeared in front of Shi Yi.

"Hang her up."

Kuba glanced at Shi Yi coldly and ordered expressionlessly.

Shi Yi's heart tightened suddenly; were they... going to torture her?

"Kuba, if you have the guts, just shoot me dead!" Shi Yi roared.

Kuba's mouth curled into a gloomy and vicious smile. He walked up and patted the girl's pale face gently with his large hand.

"Heh, why kill you? I still have great use for you."

Saying this, he turned and ordered a soldier beside him:

"Go get the live streaming props for me."

"And... let that person in."

In central Sozali, on the highway, an old Santana car sped southward.

Su Yichen raised his hand to press the gauze on his shoulder that had been soaked with blood, and said with a pale face:

"How much longer?"

The black driver looked at his watch and curled his lips, saying: "Another 10 hours, we won't arrive until seven or eight in the evening, sir... can you still hold on?"

"Yes."

Su Yichen said lightly. At this moment, although his face had lost all color, the fire that would not be extinguished still burned in his eyes.

He wouldn't faint until he saw Shi Yi with his own eyes!

He lowered his head, found oral hemostatic medicine from the first aid kit, and drank it in one breath. Then he pressed his chest to calm his breathing and opened Shi Yi's diary.

"Today is Yichen-ge's 19th birthday, and it's also the day we both received our admission notices. I didn't expect that we both got into the medical department of Qinglan University, so good! To celebrate this good news, I went to eat Japanese food with Yichen-ge, his favorite, and I prepared a big cake for him in advance. When blowing out the candles, Yichen-ge made a wish. I asked him what wish he made, Yichen-ge didn't tell me, saying it wouldn't come true if he said it out loud. Sigh, I wonder what wish brother made... was it... to marry me? Oh no, no, I'm thinking nonsense again! I haven't even started university yet, there's still so much knowledge to learn, so many things to do... One day, I will also grow up to be as excellent as Yichen-ge, and by then, I can stand side by side with him. Come on, Shi Xiao Yi!"

Seeing this, Su Yichen curled his lips and smiled knowingly. This little girl, she actually had such thoughts.

However, thinking of what happened after that day, his heart ached fiercely again.

He remembered that the next day, Shi Yi was taken home by Shi Heng.

Later... sigh, fate plays tricks on people.

Su Yichen sighed silently and reached out his finger, just about to flip to the last page of the diary.

At this moment, a low and old male voice suddenly came from the car radio, speaking fluent English:

"Dear friends, family, and all the children of the Heavenly God in the Republic of Sozali... I am Kabango, long time no see, did you miss me?"

"At this very moment, please open your mobile phone, enter the XXX page, and you can watch a wonderful live broadcast. I am waiting for you here, especially... my dear Chinese friends."

Su Yichen's brows furrowed slightly.

Could it be... really the rebel leader, Kabango?!

He quickly took out his mobile phone, opened the address mentioned in the broadcast, and entered a live streaming room.

The next second, his pupils constricted suddenly!

It was Shi Yi!
