323 Are You Going to Do Something Stupid
The more Lu Xun spoke, the heavier his sobs became. “Dapeng went down to confront those people on his own. It was all for us. If it weren’t for him, not only would those supplies have been taken away by the robbers, but we would probably have lost our lives as well.”
Yu Xinya’s brows were tightly furrowed, and the corners of her mouth were tightly pursed. She did not even know what to say now. As the team leader, Wan Dapeng stepped forward to protect the supplies and the lives of his team members. Logically speaking, as the base chief, she should be proud of him, but…
Yu Xinya did not speak, but Du Yue, who was listening at the side, could not sit still. She was too familiar with this method. She and He Xing had experienced the same thing before. However, Wan Dapeng’s luck was even worse. He did not have excellent weapons and accurate marksmanship, unlike her and He Xing. Thus, he was injured by those people.
“Did you see what those people were wearing? Are they from our base?” Du Yue asked calmly.
Wan Dapeng had been beaten to such a state. This matter definitely could not be let go just like that. No matter what, the most important thing now was to figure out the ident.i.ties of the people who ambushed him.
Lu Xun thought for a while and shook his head. “I saw them, but judging from their clothes, I can’t be sure if they’re from the base. But I don’t think they’re heading toward the base.”
Not toward the base? They might not be from the base, or they might be afraid of being found out, so they deliberately went to other places to confuse others.
Besides, there were no surveillance cameras… That was right! Du Yue’s eyes lit up. “There should be a dashcam in your car, right?”
If there was, then would the whole story not be known? Du Yue looked at Lu Xun with antic.i.p.ation. Lu Xun sighed. “There was one in the past, but I felt that it was useless, so I took it off…”
Speaking of this, Lu Xun seemed to blame himself. If he had known that such a thing would happen, he would not have taken off the dashcam! However, there were no ifs in life. Seeing Lu Xun’s dejected look, Yu Xinya could not bear to reprimand him. “Don’t be sad. I’m also responsible for this. If I had stopped you at that time, things wouldn’t have ended up like this. ”
Du Yue looked at Lu Xun and then at Yu Xinya. “Don’t be too upset about the dashcam. We can still think of other ways to find those people.”
“What else can we do?” Lu Xun immediately looked at Du Yue.
Du Yue chuckled. “We’ll wait for the rabbit.”
Since it was a robbery, it was impossible for the group of robbers just to target Wan Dapeng’s team. If they knew that other people or teams had picked up supplies in the city, the robbers would definitely not let them go. Since they did not know where those people came from, they could only wait for them to appear.
Lu Xun also thought that this was a good idea. He immediately stood up and said, “Alright, I’ll go again tomorrow…”
“You can’t go anymore!” Yu Xinya directly denied his suggestion. “Your leg is injured too. You can’t go out and mess around anymore.”
Moreover, they had been counter-attacked by Dapeng this time. They would definitely not let it go. What if they brought more men or guns next time?
“Dapeng had already fallen into this state. Do you want me to watch helplessly as you all lie there?”
“Sister Yu, if we young adults don’t go, no one in the small courtyard can go…”
Yu Xinya frowned. “Don’t speak anymore. Even if you say anything else today, I won’t agree. When Dapeng comes out of the operating room, ask the doctor if he needs to be hospitalized or if he can go back to the small courtyard to recuperate.
“If his situation allows it, let’s bring him back to the small courtyard. The hospital is definitely not as comfortable as his own home. The uncles and aunts in the small courtyard are also looking forward to his return. Lu Xun, please take care of the elderly and children in the small courtyard in the future. Young people like us must support the pillars of the small courtyard. We must also take good care of the crops…”
Du Yue had been listening to the two of them. When she heard this, she suddenly felt that something was wrong. Yu Xinya’s words sounded like she was making arrangements for her funeral. Du Yue was not the only one who could tell. Lu Xun could tell as well. “Sister Yu, what do you mean by telling me this?! Are you going to do something stupid? No way…
“I don’t agree. You’ve always been the one taking care of the crops with everyone. You have to continue managing things here…”
