When Night Owl held his engagement party, Bai Suye had already flown tens of millions feet in the air.
The next day after returning home, the deputy director brought Bai Lang back. After that, Bai Lang never mentioned what happened that day. However, occasionally, she could still vaguely see this grand engagement gift on international news.
The media release was sent from Country T to Country S. No, it should be said that it was sent to the whole world.
"You said that Night Owl wants to announce to the world that he has a beautiful fiancée, and that he dotes on her so much that he wants to announce it to the world in such a high-profile manner?" During lunch, the colleague sitting opposite her was chatting about the news about Night Owl.
Bai Lang almost immediately turned to look at her expression. Seeing that she didn't show much expression, although he was relieved, he still said to his colleague opposite: "It's been such a long time, and you are still talking about it. Why don't you talk about the upcoming mission?"
"It's not that we want to talk about it, it's just that Night Owl is too high-profile. So many days have passed, and the news media are still publishing articles."
Bai Suye lowered her eyes slightly and glanced at the newspaper beside her.
Ye Xiao was not a high-profile person, and he was also very clear that such news would be a disaster for Nalan. Many people were watching Ye Xiao, waiting for an opportunity to strike. Such a report now would turn Nalan into a living target. Many people who could not touch Ye Xiao would probably find ways to target Nalan in the future.
Night Owl would not do such a thing, so it must have been done by Ferens. However, Ferens' thoughts have always been difficult to guess, so no one knows what his purpose is.
What's more, now, these things have nothing to do with her...
Bai Suye ate quietly. The exquisite and delicious meal tasted bitter in his mouth, like chewing wax...
… … … …
On the tenth day, I still suffer from insomnia.
Bai Suye lay in the bathtub, opened the curtain, and looked out the window at the gradually brightening sky with empty eyes. It was already snowing in this city. Outside, it was all white, and just looking at it made her feel chilly.
On the other side, in the city of Jude, country T, has it started snowing now? Are the fireworks in that city blooming on time? Who has changed to who in that hotel and that room
Thinking of this, my heart aches.
At this moment, the buzzing of her cell phone brought her back to her senses.
She stood up from the bathtub, wrapped herself in a towel, and answered the phone. It was the director who called, with just a few simple words, "Emergency meeting, come to the bureau immediately."
Bai Suye looked at the time. It was only 7:30 in the morning. It seemed that there was an urgent task.
Without any delay, she changed into her uniform, tied up her long hair, and drove to the National Security Bureau in the heavy snow.
This meeting was quite serious.
"The current situation is quite serious. Because the kidnapping of Youming happened in the special place of Sayan Desert, we can't send the government army directly to deal with it, so this time the matter fell to our National Security Bureau. This time, in addition to the support of 20 elite mercenaries, we will also have our undercover agents to cooperate inside and outside. Now, we have to choose someone to lead the disguised entry into Sayan Desert. Who here is willing to be the pioneer this time?"
The director looked around at everyone present.
Then, a clear voice sounded, "I'll go."
Everyone's eyes fell on the only woman present.
White Wolf tilted his head and lowered his voice, "You haven't been in good spirits lately. This mission is very dangerous!"
"No matter how dangerous it is, someone will go there, if not me then someone else."
"But… "
When Bai Lang was about to say something, the director interrupted them, "Minister Bai, have you thought it through? This matter is very dangerous! Youming has many advanced weapons in his hands, and this time they are in the desert, the terrain is steep, and the situation is complicated."
"Yes, I have thought it through clearly." Her tone was firm, without any wavering.
"Minister!" White Wolf called out in a low voice, "You are a woman!"
Bai Suye ignored him, stood up, and saluted solemnly, "Please ask the director to approve it."
"Okay. I have always believed in your ability." Facing her resolute eyes, the director nodded, "Then, gather the personnel in the next two days and make good analysis and deployment as soon as possible. No time is wasted. No matter what the cost, the safety of the hostages must be guaranteed!"
"yes!"
… … … … …
On the eve of the expedition, Bai Suye packed all his equipment, took sleeping pills and went to sleep.
She knew very well how dangerous this time was. Those militants were not simple characters. However, life and death were determined by fate. If she died bravely on the battlefield, it would be a heroic thing. At least, this was the meaning of her life.
The next day, Bai Suye, dressed in camouflage uniform and fully armed, led his men and resolutely boarded a helicopter to the Sayan Desert.
… … … …
For two days, there was no news from the front line in the country.
White Wolf waited for two full days, and on the third day, he could no longer wait to rush into the temporary combat command center.
"What exactly is the situation? How are they now? Have the hostages been rescued? Where is our minister?"
"White Wolf, please be patient. They have just entered the enemy's hinterland. All signals inside have been blocked, so they can't get in touch with us directly."
"How can I be patient? This could cost someone's life in a matter of minutes." Bai Lang was anxious. In fact, they often went on such missions, and he was used to it. But this time, he felt uneasy. He didn't know what was going on.
He didn't go anywhere, so he pulled a chair and sat in the combat command center. He opened a pack of cigarettes and smoked one after another. Soon, the headquarters was filled with smoke.
The head of the command center kicked him and said, "Take it out if you want. You're choking me to death."
"What's going on? Is there any problem?" Bai Lang put out his cigarette. He looked up at the clock on the wall and realized that he had been sitting there for two hours without realizing it. No wonder he felt so tortured.
The head of the command center was fed up with his constant questioning and wanted to take him out. But before he could do anything, he heard a cry of surprise: "Head, there is news! Good news!"
White Wolf's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked before the minister: "Have they all been rescued?"
"Yes, I just received a notification that every hostage is safe. They have been put on a helicopter and are flying to a safe area."
"Great!" The minister was surprised and happy. The hostages were all safe, which was the best result. "I'll call the director immediately to report!"
White Wolf also breathed a sigh of relief.
However, before he could completely exhale, he was stunned by another sentence the next moment.
“But…” The other party’s expression became slightly serious.
