Chapter 325: Chapter 325: Dark History_1 Chapter 325: Chapter 325: Dark History_1 Provincial Capital – Airport
One after another, helicopters lined up on the vast airport runway, their presence and the hustling ground personnel contributing to an increasingly tense atmosphere.
The leader of this mission was none other than Tu Lou, who had just recovered from his injuries.
The head of the branch company was Li Chi.
And the just-joined camouflaged Huo Beijiang stirred things up.
Because of this guy’s intrusion, the three teams had almost gotten into a fight.
“Let’s be clear, I don’t care about any of your nonsense. Since I’m involved in the rescue, you will both have to follow my orders. If not, you can leave now.”
Someone’s words were utterly arrogant.
The team immediately ignited like gasoline thrown into a fire.
Tu Lou stared at Huo Beijiang expressionlessly, deeply regretting joining this rescue mission. The Transocean Group’s problem was none of his business. If something went wrong, they should have turned to the rescue team or the rescue center! Just because the Transocean Group was powerful and obedient, it doesn’t mean they should be let off easily! The more people involved in the rescue, the harder the team was to manage. One misstep could lead to infighting. And according to the orders he received, this jerk had anticipated it all.
His job was to assist Snow Eagle and manage the rear.
Li Chi sneered coldly, “Captain Huo, we all hold the same position, isn’t that a bit much?”
“Who’s like you? Don’t flatter yourself,” Huo Beijiang said disdainfully. “I earned my position step by step, what about you?”
He looked him up and down, slightly shaking his head. “I’m telling you to follow me for your own good, really!” Having said this, he even clapped Li Chi on the shoulder meaningfully.
This left Li Chi in bemused disbelief.
He had known before he came that ordinary people dared not go to places like the Devil’s Desert. They were undertaking a rescue mission, which greatly increased the risk.
Those who had joined had effectively put their lives on the line.
If they wanted to return alive, they could only follow Huo Beijiang. The members of the Sihai Group were heavyweights on the sea, but on land, not so much! Among them, only Huo Beijiang had participated in many missions with professional rescue teams during his school years.
It was rumored that when Huo Beijiang graduated, the provincial rescue center had wanted to recruit him. When they failed, they lodged a complaint with the higher-ups.
He still found it hard to understand how such a jerk could have become the ace of the famous International Search and Rescue Organization. According to their understanding, it would make more sense if The Great Devil was tasked with killing people.
Surprisingly, he was also good at saving people.
“You think everyone is like you?” Tu Lou said disdainfully. “I’m not going to commit insubordination, nor do I want to be publicly criticized.”
Tu Lou had been severely injured before and though he had recovered, his handsome face still held a sickly pallor. This didn’t stop him from showing off his expertise in sarcasm, though.
Behind Huo Beijiang, Lu Jin was laughing under his breath, feeling that Tu Lou seemed to have been influenced by their boss.
Huo Beijiang raised his eyebrows when he saw his past being brought up, he gave Tu Lou a cold glance and with a thoughtful curl of his lips, he led the team towards Snow Eagle’s exclusive helicopter.
Tu Lou was left perplexed, sensing that something was amiss.
“The Great Devil just now had a scary laugh!” a deputy captain whispered from behind.
Tu Lou said nothing, leading his people to board the aircraft.
Li Chi was the last to go.
At a slight distance, the many big shots who had been watching finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“Finally, they’re leaving.”
