Chapter 292 Return to 8
"Should we tell Captain Wang and the others?"
Jiang Li said somewhat hesitantly, after all, this was just her idea, and it seemed a little inappropriate to say it out loud.
Ye Jingmo shook his head slightly. Even if he said it, Wang Hao and the others might not believe him. Based on his feelings alone, there was no strong support for it.
The seating arrangement in the car was reversed; Liangzi took the driver's seat, and Zhang Tianmeng moved to the passenger seat.
Liu Yu's head was still spinning from the impact, and he hadn't quite recovered yet.
Fu Qian examined Liu Yu and concluded that it was a mild concussion, nothing serious, just that he needed to rest, but he definitely couldn't drive.
"Liangzi, turn back and we'll take this road."
Wang Hao handed the map to Zhang Tianmeng, pointed to the fork in the road on the other side, and told Liangzi to go in that direction.
“We’ve never traveled this road before. For safety’s sake, Liangzi, you can slow down a bit.”
Wang Hao spoke cautiously, his brow furrowed in the middle, as if he were deeply troubled.
Their return journey was extremely difficult. They encountered various problems before they were even halfway there, and they had no idea what the rest of the journey would be like.
Wang Hao sighed inwardly, his eyes fixed on the road ahead, filled with worry.
As dusk settled and night fell, the car drove along the rugged road, bouncing and jolting intermittently.
Now the driver has changed to Ye Jingmo, and Jiang Li sits beside him.
Hearing the snoring coming from the seats behind her, Jiang Li smiled. She turned around and saw everyone leaning against their seats, their faces turned toward the ceiling with their eyes closed.
"Take a nap if you're sleepy."
Ye Jingmo glanced at Jiang Li beside him and said in a low voice.
Jiang Li shook her head. "I promised to drive with you, it's only for these two hours, then someone else will take over. I can still manage."
To save time and ensure travel safety, Wang Hao arranged for a different group of drivers to take turns driving every two hours to avoid any accidents.
The second half of the journey was smooth, and no unexpected events occurred.
As dawn broke, Zhao Mingkai looked out the car window at the familiar scenery. Although he didn't show any excitement on his face, the way he gripped his pants tightly revealed his feelings at that moment.
"Captain Wang, we're finally going back to base!" Wang Tang excitedly hugged Wang Hao, shouting happily.
Wang Hao was stunned, his ears rang, and he felt dizzy and lightheaded, but a happy smile remained on his face.
I went away for a while, and it felt like a long time had passed. When I came back, I really felt a sense of trepidation, like being close to home.
The radio signal emitted a "beep beep beep" sound, and the static broke the silence inside the car.
"Is it Wang Hao?"
The male voice on the signal horn was a little distorted, but Wang Hao still recognized the voice immediately.
"Mr. Qian, it's us. We're about 3 kilometers away from the base."
Wang Hao calmly reported their distance from the base.
"Good, good, good," Old Qian said three times in a row. "The base will be ready to receive you. The flocks of birds outside haven't dispersed yet, so be careful."
The car drove slowly along the road, and the closer it got to the base, the more birds there were.
Like hyenas drawn by a scent, they waited by their prey, ready to swarm and attack at the slightest sign of weakness.
