2504 A Shocking Thunder
He was fine, and so was Xia Jinyuan. His grandfather was safe as well. Then… Li Jinnian thought of a possibility, and his gaze turned cold. “My uncle! Ye Jian’s biological father! What about him? Did Ye Jian…”
No, his younger cousin couldn’t contact his uncle. Even his maternal grandfather couldn’t!
His biological father! His future father-in-law! Xia Jinyuan’s muscles tensed up.
“Last time, my third brother called and said that my future father-in-law had temporarily left the base. My father-in-law is the chief engineer, and my third brother is not on the same project team as my father-in-law. We don’t know how long he’ll be gone for and where he went.”
Xia Jinyuan’s voice was cold. “If all of us are fine, then my father-in-law…”
“Contact the military! Hurry up and contact the military!” Li Jinnian’s expression changed drastically. He said calmly, “My cousin hasn’t reunited with my uncle yet. My uncle might not even know that my cousin is back! Xia Jinyuan, I beg you to contact Commander Xia immediately. Please!”
Thunder suddenly exploded. With a bang, it seemed to have struck inches away. Lightning flashed across the dark sky. The sentinel looked up. Raindrops dripped down from his hard face.
They were training in a rainy mountain forest. It was common to see thunderstorms.
This thunderstorm came at a bad time. The two top special forces soldiers trembled in fear.
Far away in a military courtyard in the capital city, a series of urgent phone calls sounded, waking people up.
The major general opened his eyes. Before he could get up from the bed, he quickly picked up the receiver and said in a steady and low voice, “What’s the matter?”
“Major General! There’s an emergency. Commander Xia asked me to inform you to come to the army’s combat command center immediately!” The voice on the other end of the phone sounded rushed.
Urgent matter?
The major general’s expression turned dark. “Okay! I’ll be there in 15 minutes.”
He hurriedly hung up and called the guard. “Hurry up and arrange for a car to wait for me at the entrance. I’ll be there in two minutes.”
As soon as the phone was placed, the major general jumped up from the bed. He immediately got dressed and washed up. In less than two minutes, he was done.
This was the ability of a soldier. Even though he was the highest-ranking commander of the Xueyu unit, he was still a major general.
When he reached the entrance, the car was already waiting. The major general sat in the car and instructed the guard in a serious and simple voice, “Go to the command center. Drive as fast as you can! Hurry!”
The matter was rather urgent. The guard had been following the major general for so long, but this was the first time he saw the major general losing his composure. He replied in acknowledgment and stepped on the accelerator, driving the major general toward the army’s combat command.
Ten minutes later, the major general appeared at the entrance of the army’s combat command center. Before he could salute, Commander Xia stopped him. “Okay, come in quickly!”
His voice was so deep that the major general’s heart sank even more.
Something had happened, and it wasn’t an ordinary matter!
He knew that something big had happened when he stood in the control room where one could contact the various military districts and secret military bases through the military satellite!
There were layers of high-tech defense and special materials that were fireproof, bulletproof, earthquake-proof, and artillery-proof. The heavy door opened, and Commander Xia strode past. Major General Yang followed closely behind.
