Chapter 39 We need a hero!
After receiving a positive answer, Qin Hu put down his phone and looked at the temporary command room that was not yet powered on.
In the dim room, several senior generals and Qin Hu's old boss stopped having a heated debate.
One of them said:
"You know very well that it is impossible for us to attribute all the credit for the victory to an ordinary civilian awakener."
Qin Hu frowned:
"But the fact is that I gave up on him. The explosion in the suburbs had nothing to do with me... I was just a runaway..."
"Bang!"
Qin Hu's old boss, Commander of the Thirteenth Division of Lu, slammed the table, his sharp eyes seeming to pierce his subordinates:
"Second Lieutenant! You have your responsibilities and considerations! Please pay attention to your identity and position!"
Qin Hu stopped talking and chose to remain silent.
The discussion among the big shots ended quickly. What they cared about was not the truth about victory, but how to extract more benefits from it and distribute it to all parties.
Give the superiors and all parties a satisfactory solution.
After the visitors from the federal capital left, the old boss walked to the door of the command room, turned around and patted Qin Hu on the shoulder, speaking in a low and powerful tone:
"Remember, the Federation needs a hero."
"We need a hero!"
"He can be any of us, but he can't be a civilian, let alone a civil awakener that we can't account for. This time the credit is enough for him to join us, and it will be his turn next time."
Qin Hu sighed and said helplessly:
"This victory was just an accident, but next time, what should we do to win?"
"Damn bugs, they won't negotiate with us."
The old boss looked outside the door. Soldiers who had just retired from the front line were busy going back and forth. Most of the wounded were lying on the ground or on stretchers. They were missing arms and legs and were already disabled.
The troops were bitten by the insect swarm and suffered serious attrition.
"We still have a few days to prepare for this, and the new recruits will be sent soon."
"Submit the report you should write first, and then take a good rest for two days, Major Qin."
…………
Lin Feng looked at the phone screen where the call was hung up, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised. He could already confirm that the only victory came from the gasoline explosion.
But the military would not take credit for him. Lin Feng knew this, because the two complemented each other. Without them blocking and sacrificing their lives on the front line, Lin Feng would not have dared to dance on the edge of the cliff, having such an exciting time. .
Moreover, he doesn't need these false reputations at the moment. When he is weak, the fame and fortune gained from charity will only make Lin Feng a puppet controlled by others.
How to turn the vain achievements into real benefits is what Lin Feng urgently needs.
Qin Hu's phone call made Lin Feng feel at ease.
This guy is probably going to be the hero that this victory is proclaiming.
Then your own benefits are naturally indispensable.
Lin Feng sent a message to Yurou's sister-in-law to report that she was safe, then put down the phone and said:
"Put away the red armor shield. We are about to enter the traffic flow of fleeing people. Everyone should have a good rest."
The two women nodded in unison, showing smiles that would last for the rest of their lives.
The devastated RV walked on the emergency lane, attracting repeated glances from nearby refugees.
After several rounds of inspections, they successfully arrived at the service area of the expressway. At this time, the vehicles inside were also following the large troops on the main road and retreating one by one.
Lin Feng asked Chen Yanyan to drive the modified RV directly into the vehicle repair shop on the side.
This place used to be Hu Fei's property, but now it is empty. The tools and maintenance personnel in the shop are nowhere to be seen.
Chen Yanyan released the brakes, pulled out the key, let out a long breath, and drove to the limit all night long. If it hadn't been for the warmth brought by the seventh intensification, she would have been unable to hold on.
Lin Feng got out of the car and asked Chen Yanyan to stay in the car to prevent the loot from being coveted. Then he led Liu Yueqi, who was swaying, outside.
Finding Zhang Xuan's car still parked in the parking space, the two walked over.
In the early morning, under the dim street lights...
Liu Ruojiao was sitting in the back car, hugging her legs and burying herself in her head, crying. The tears that kept flowing made her skirt and chest wet. Her sobs could still be heard clearly outside the car window.
Lin Feng realized that if Qin Hu and others evacuated first, false news of their death would be passed back.
No wonder Liu Ruojiao cried so bitterly.
Seeing her aunt's sad look, Liu Yueqi hurriedly stepped forward and opened the car door:
"Aunt...we are back..."
Hearing the familiar voice, Liu Ruojiao raised her head sharply, tears stained her cheeks, and her wet red eyes showed shock and astonishment.
After seeing the familiar girl in front of him, this shock turned into extreme excitement and joy.
Liu Ruojiao quickly stood up and stepped forward, broke out of the car door, and hugged her niece.
"Woooo..."
Tears overflowed from the corners of Liu Yueqi's eyes. The lingering fear of escaping from death was finally released at this moment, and she also hugged her relatives tightly in her arms.
Upon seeing this, Lin Feng walked away immediately, leaving space for the two women. On the way to the hotel office, he met Zhang Xuan who had just come out of the hotel.
His face seemed to have been punched by someone, and there was a red mark on it.
At this time, Zhang Xuan's right eye was swollen, and he could barely see the man in front of him clearly, and he was so frightened that he froze in place.
Lin Feng smiled, nodded and left.
When the man walked into the office, Zhang Xuan squinted his eyes and turned back to confirm that Lin Feng was really not dead.
He ran into the hotel before, trying to find the staff of the administration and get back the 60 cans that Liu Yueqi got after joining the job...
As a result, the other party told him that when Mr. Lin was handling this batch of rewards, he also specifically instructed that only Miss Liu could come in person to get it, and only two cans a day.
Zhang Xuan, who already knew that Lin Feng and others had died, was immediately furious and told them that the person was dead and his words were nothing!
Then he righteously asked the other party to hand over all of Liu Yueqi's share. As family members, they had the right to get Liu Yueqi's reward inheritance.
As a result, the other party ignored him.
Zhang Xuan, who was making a fuss, was directly knocked to the ground by the security inside with a gun butt. It was not peacetime, and they didn't care at all, no matter what kind of professor or expert you were.
Zhang Xuan rested on the ground for a long time, then got up and walked out of the office in a mess.
Unexpectedly, when he went out, he ran into Lin Feng, who was supposed to be dead. Zhang Xuan was horrified and quickly looked back at his car. Sure enough, Liu Yueqi was back!
They were not dead, and they were all safe and sound!
Zhang Xuan took a deep breath, adjusted his mentality, and smiled kindly and hypocritically, and walked towards Liu Ruojiao.
…
When Lin Feng appeared in the office, the female employee on duty at the front desk showed a trace of surprise, but soon showed excellent service quality and put on a friendly smile.
"Hello, Mr. Lin."
Lin Feng said directly:
"I see that your people are retreating. Are you going to give up here?"
The waitress was stunned and nodded:
"I just received news that Wucheng will soon become a front-line preparation area. All logistics personnel need to be transferred to Jincheng further behind."
"It is expected that all will be evacuated tomorrow afternoon."
Lin Feng nodded and asked whether to purchase some materials from the giant insects and the current fluctuation of the ratio of federal currency to gold.
For example, the carapace of the red beetle and the huge jaws of the black-spine beetle can be exchanged for food and gasoline.
As for the federal currency, it must have depreciated a lot now. Although the official tried to stabilize the rear market, it could not withstand the fall of developed coastal cities one after another.
Those who fled wanted to exchange the banknotes in their hands for gold and other precious metals immediately. Even food, weapons and other supplies were more reassuring than a piece of waste paper.
After learning the information he wanted, Lin Feng left and returned to the RV in the repair shop.
The three black-backed insects under the rain cloth behind the car were still hissing, but it was a pity that this place was too far away from Haicheng, so it was useless to shout.
Lin Feng sat on the recliner next to the car and asked Chen Yanyan to clean up the messy car first, then take a shower and rest early.
Then he took out the business card left by Hu Fei and dialed the private number on it.
"Hey, it's your turn to work."
