Chapter 548 Heading to the Border
fifth day
Hua Yan packed her luggage, and her family saw her off at the train station. She didn't want to leave, but there was nothing they could do; the country had an important mission that required her.
"Jiu'er, take good care of yourself. Don't worry about things at home."
Hua Jingxing knew that this girl was a very talented person and could not possibly stay under his wing. Rather than worrying, he decided to let her fly freely.
"Dad, I understand. You take good care of yourself too, and call me if anything happens."
Hua Yan is no longer so worried about Hua Jingxing's health. With her secret pills, Hua Jingxing should be fine for the next twenty years unless there are natural disasters or man-made calamities.
She looked at Hua Jingxing's face and realized it was no longer the same as before. She didn't know when it had happened, but it had become a face of great wealth and honor, and ordinary natural disasters and man-made calamities could not affect him.
"Jiu'er, when you're out and about, be careful of everyone around you, and never easily trust strangers."
"Okay. But you can't be too kind, or you'll get taken advantage of."
Hua Yan said meaningfully.
"Yes! I won't."
Hua Jingxing understood what his daughter meant.
"Sister, will we see you after school starts?"
Hua Rong held Hua Yan's hand tightly, refusing to let go.
Hua Jiao held Hua Yan and Hua Rong's hands without saying a word. She had heard what her father and sister had said, and any further words would be superfluous.
"Guo'er, you and your older sister won't be able to stay at home for many more days. Go out and have some fun when you have time. The older you get, the less time you'll have."
Haha! As people grow up, many things become beyond their control, and they will never have the same relaxed mindset as when they were children.
Hua Yan never enjoyed the joys of childhood in either of her previous lives. In her past life, it was because of a troublesome mother, and in this life, it is because of a master who has the final say.
"Hehe! Sister, adults always tell kids to study hard, why are you letting us play?"
Hua Rong wore a mischievous smile.
"Hehe! Because my older sister is a child herself, she understands children best."
Hua Yan gently rubbed the top of Hua Rong's head.
"Jiu'er, I'll take good care of Guo'er, don't worry! They're starting to check tickets over there, let's hurry over!"
Hua Jiao held Hua Yan's hand and reminded her.
With her loved ones reluctant to part, Hua Yan boarded the train with her luggage.
-
They traveled in silence. As soon as Hua Yan got off the train, she received a call from Men Buhui.
"Jiu'er, have you gotten off the train? I'm waiting for you at the exit!"
"Uncle Men, I just got off the bus."
Hua Yan carried a travel bag and walked quickly toward the exit.
Upon seeing Hua Yan, Men Buhui personally stepped forward and took Hua Yan's luggage bag.
"Jiu'er, you've worked hard."
Men Buhui felt extremely sorry for Huayan, because he couldn't even spend the New Year properly at home.
"Hehe! Uncle Men, Happy New Year. If we're talking about hardship, who can endure it as much as you? For the sake of the country and the people, you haven't been able to go home for several years."
Hua Yan deeply admires those soldiers who serve their country and its people.
"Haha! You're so young but so wise, and you speak so eloquently."
Men Buhui did not deny his contributions.
"Jiu'er, are you still going home to visit?"
Upon hearing these words, Hua Yan immediately knew that there was no need for her to return home.
"Uncle Men, no need to go back, there's nothing else. When do we leave?"
"We'll depart from the military region in a bit and take a helicopter directly."
"Alright, I'll inform Xue Biao and have him head to the military region immediately."
Hua Yan had already spoken to Xue Biao beforehand, giving him a general overview of the mission objectives.
Men Buhui nodded, and said solemnly:
"Jiu'er, for the sake of the country, I won't stand on ceremony."
Hua Yan smiled and raised her hand to give Men Bu Hui a high five.
Everything is understood without words. This is not just Men Buhui's responsibility, but the responsibility of all Chinese people. Protecting the nation is not the task of a special group, but the responsibility of every individual living on this land.
When they arrived at the military region, Xue Biao was already waiting at the gate. Hua Yan waved for him to get in the car.
"Greetings, Commander Men!"
Xue Biao greeted him respectfully.
Men Buhui nodded and said seriously:
"Thank you for your hard work this time, Hua Yan."
"It's not hard work for us, it's our honor."
Xue Biao wasn't lying; he was excited when he received Hua Yan's call and learned what he was going to do.
Hua Yan gave Xue Biao a thumbs up.
On the way, Men Buhui had already contacted Liu Heming, and the plane was parked on the runway, ready to take off at any time.
"Old Master, I'm entrusting Jiu'er to you."
Liu Heming looked at Hua Yan with a worried expression.
"Chief Liu, you must trust Jiu'er's abilities, otherwise I wouldn't have made a special trip back to invite her."
Men Buhui grasped Liu Heming's hand and shook it heavily twice.
"Uncle Liu, don't worry! I'll take good care of myself."
Hua Yan reassured Liu Heming.
As Liu Heming watched the helicopter soar into the sky, he felt that he had burdened Hua Yan with too many responsibilities that did not belong to her.
Although he felt somewhat guilty, Hua Yan's abilities left him with no other choice.
"Jiu'er, do you have any plans? When we reach the border, I can send people to protect you; they will all be at your command."
Although Men Buhui had confidence in Hua Yan, there was always a chance of something going wrong. In the past, Hua Yan had offered her help voluntarily, so his responsibility wasn't as great if anything went wrong. This time, however, he had taken the initiative to invite Hua Yan to assist in completing the mission, and if anything unexpected happened, he would bear full responsibility.
"Uncle Men, there's no need to send anyone to follow me. Xue Biao alone is enough."
Hua Yan didn't want to bring too many people; if anything unexpected happened, she would have to divert her attention to protecting them.
Men Buhui nodded silently. He knew that if Hua Yan didn't have the ability to protect herself, she wouldn't be able to complete the task he had given her.
"Uncle Men, this time when I go there, I plan to disguise myself as a local resident. I speak their dialect and then gradually steal their military secrets."
Xue Biao didn't speak their language and couldn't infiltrate the enemy's ranks; otherwise, hearing someone speak Chinese would immediately arouse the enemy's suspicion. He appeared as a deaf-mute, not needing to speak, but only responsible for observing the enemy's situation.
Our relationship is that of uncle and nephew. I am an orphan, and only this single uncle takes care of me.
“Yes! That works. You can disguise yourselves as indigenous people from the mountains, affected by the war, who have no choice but to come down from the mountains to find a way out. That way, no one will know your situation.”
Men Buhui actually came up with a good idea.
“Yes! That way they might be able to learn about the situation in the mountains through us. Luckily, Xue Biao is a scout, so these things won't be difficult for him.”
……
The group carefully studied the action plan, and when the plane landed, Hua Yan and Xue Biao immediately got into character and began their mission.
"Uncle Men, Uncle Xue and I won't go back to the command post with you. We'll go straight to the town."
On the plane, Hua Yan and Xue Biao were well aware of the situation at the border of Country Y, because this was where they would be staying in the future.
"Alright! Give me a call if you need any supplies."
Men Buhui was worried that Hua Yan and the others would not survive. Although he had given them some Y country currency on the plane, he was still worried that they would starve to death.
"No need, this is a tropical region, unlike the Northeast which is covered in ice and snow now, so eating is not a problem."
Hua Yan never imagined that one day someone would worry about her going hungry.
"Okay, contact me immediately if you have any problems. Remember, nothing is more important than your safety."
Men Buhui emphasized one point.
Hua Yan waved her hand and left with Xue Biao.
As Men Buhui watched Hua Yan's retreating figure, a complex mix of emotions welled up within him.
Sigh! He was truly at his wit's end. The several groups he sent out hadn't obtained any useful information, which was why he thought of the all-powerful Hua Yan. This was also the result of his discussion with Liu Heming.
