Elder brother's garrison

Page 1778

Flames burned on the highway.

The streets were filled with panicked shouts from the crowds, mixed with the piercing honking of horns, making one's heart pound with fear.

The van's tires were blown into the air by the powerful aftershocks of the explosion, flying up in front of Miao Yang, then back down, finally crashing onto the flame-scorched street, sending sparks flying.

"Eh?"

Miao Yang blinked, staring at the scene before her, her face filled with shock.

In Miao Yang's memory of the previous few seconds, she was still sitting in the driver's seat of the van transporting the ship girls, and everyone was eating hot pot and singing songs in the van, with a lively atmosphere.

Inside the car, Miao Yang heard a series of mechanical beeping sounds, like the countdown timers used to signal a time bomb in a movie. Before the beeping finished, the van she was driving was engulfed by a sudden burst of intense heat and flames. Miao Yang felt the leaping flames burning her face, and the loud noise made her ears ring. The whole world in front of her seemed to have turned into a noisy sea of ​​fire.

And then... that's how it is now.

Miao Yang looked down and found herself suspended more than ten meters in the air. The road below her was now completely visible—at the very bottom was the burning wreckage of a minivan. The explosion of the minivan seemed to have caused a major traffic accident on the road. At this moment alone, more than a dozen vehicles had rear-ended each other not far from the wreckage, and were lined up haphazardly on the road.

What happened?

How did the van explode while I was driving?

Was the gas I filled up with yesterday counterfeit or substandard?

Ah this...

Moreover, how could I suddenly fly so high? The road below looked like a scene from the apocalypse. The feeling of my feet dangling in the air was terrifying. My heart was beating so fast that I could hardly breathe.

Miao Yang's mind was instantly filled with all sorts of panicked thoughts.

"Oh, Miss Miao, you're awake."

Just then, a familiar voice called out from above Miao Yang's head.

Upon hearing this voice, Miao Yang, who was panicked and unsure of what to do, trembled and slowly raised her head.

Miao Yang saw the face of the deep-sea Yamato.

At this moment, Shenhai Yamato was sitting on top of a traffic light more than ten meters high. She was holding Miao Yang's clothes like she was lifting a chick, keeping Miao Yang in mid-air under the traffic light, and watching the situation on the road with a curious look.

"Ya, Yamato-san? Is it you who brought me here...?" Miao Yang stammered as she spoke to Abyss Yamato.

"Oh! Because it was too dangerous just now." Yamato Akami lowered his head and said to Miao Yang with a smile, "Speaking of which, your human driving tools are too fragile. How can they suddenly explode while driving? If I hadn't pulled you out just in time before the explosion, Miss Miao, you might be dead!"

"Die—die—!!!" Miao Yang's face instantly turned deathly pale with fright.

"That's right, what just happened was..." Just as Deep Sea Yamato was about to say something to Miao Yang, suddenly, the music of Canon rang out from Deep Sea Yamato.

"Eee ...

“It’s my phone.” Yamato Fukami reached into his clothes and pulled out a phone that was playing Canon in D. “My phone was ringing when the van exploded.”

"Huh? So that Canon in D was Ms. Yamato's caller ID??" Miao Yang's eyes widened.

"What lovely music," Yamato hummed, glancing at his phone screen. "Let me see who's calling... Oh! It's Shiro!"

In front of Miao Yang, Shen Hai Yamato answered the phone in his hand.

"Hello? Oh! Xiaobai? Yes, yes, we're on our way to the studio for the next show, and there was a little mishap on the way... Eh? You even know about that? Oh... Oh? I see... Hmm... It's alright, Miss Miao is with me, and apart from looking a little pale, she's still lively and energetic. Hmm... Okay, I understand! Then leave this to me!"

Deep Sea Yamato chatted with Xiaobai on the other end of the phone for a few minutes, then hung up the phone, satisfied.

“I see. That explains why the van suddenly exploded while we were driving along.” Shenhai Yamato said to Miao Yang, “So we were a criminal gang that was attacked by terrorists.”

"Ah? A terrorist attack..."

"Yes, it seems like someone planted a bomb under our car."

"Eek!!" Miao Yang was so frightened that she quickly hugged her arms. "I...I...I've never heard of being your manager being in mortal danger!"

"Don't worry, don't worry, Xiaobai told me the criminal organization has been caught. We'll be fine once we get through this." Shenhai Yamato smiled at Miao Yang. "Look, look, Miss Miao, you're still perfectly healthy!"

Before Miao Yang could reply, Shen Hai Yamato lifted Miao Yang up and placed her on the traffic light seat next to him.

The higher you go, the colder it gets, and the wind is biting. As soon as Miao Yang sat down at the traffic light, she was so scared that she couldn't straighten up and quickly hugged the iron pipe beneath her.

"Big, big, big, Miss, please put me down! It's so high up here, I'm so scared, waaaaah..."

"Just make do here for a bit, Xiaobai just asked me to go down there to rescue people." Shenhai Yamato patted Miao Yang on the shoulder. "Miss Miao, stay here and wait for me to rescue the people down there, then I'll come back and pick you up."

"Huh? No, no, you can put me first..."

Before Miao Yang could call out, Shen Hai Yamato lightly jumped down from the road, which was more than ten meters below him.

Miao Yang, who was lying on the traffic light, stared blankly as Shen Hai Yamato jumped into the raging wreckage of the bus. She watched as Shen Hai Yamato easily crossed the sea of ​​fire and reached the side of the rear-ended vehicle. Like a superheroine, she picked up the overturned vehicle and pulled out the trapped passengers. Miao Yang couldn't help but swallow hard.

Miss Yamato... seems much more reliable than she appears...

What about the other ship girls?

Miao Yang searched for the other ship girls with some worry in her heart.

Then Miao Yang saw that not far from the wreckage of the van, Loki was leading the other ship girls to maintain order. They set up a cordon and retrieved the flying van debris from the dangerous area. The usually lazy Pachina was unusually comforting a crying child, and the gluttonous Musashi took out her snacks and handed them to the frightened crowd. Ryujo and Bismarck were also helping Yamato rescue passengers caught in the traffic accident... The road situation affected by the explosion was gradually stabilizing thanks to the efforts of these ship girls.

Even girls who torment themselves to the point of wishing they were dead in their daily lives will still become reliable saviors and lend a helping hand to people when they need help.

Miao Yang couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Ultimately, even if they have some flaws in their personalities, a ship girl is still a ship girl...

Miao Yang was moved.

Just then, a gust of wind blew across Miao Yang's back, causing her face to tremble.

Miao Yang's face suddenly turned red, she clenched the iron pipe between her legs, and her whole body trembled.

"If only you could put me down... that would be even better..."

"Woooo..."

"It's so high up here..."

"I really need to pee..."

Chapter 2449 Sudden Onset of Serious Illness

In front of the warehouse.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Xiaobai hung up the phone and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Comrade Admiral, how's the situation over there?" The policeman in charge of relaying the message asked hurriedly as he watched Xiaobai hang up the phone.

"Yes, there was indeed an explosion." Xiaobai put down his phone.

"What?! An explosion?!" Director Chen, who was standing nearby, was so shocked that he almost turned pale. "Then...then Miao Yang..."

"It's alright, Miss Miao is safe now." Xiaobai smiled at Director Chen. "Yamato and the others' rescue was very timely. Although there are still some injured passersby, no one has lost their lives. The damage caused by the explosion has been minimized."

"Ah...that's good, that's good." Director Chen breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

Upon hearing Xiaobai's words, the police officer standing nearby immediately felt a deep respect for him.

"Your Excellency, thank you for your help!" The policeman raised his hand to salute Xiaobai, his eyes full of sincere admiration.

Xiao Bai waved his hand sheepishly.

After saying goodbye to the police officer in charge of questioning, Xiaobai entrusted the work at the scene to Director Wang, and then temporarily left the site to search for Luming's figure in the convoy full of police cars.

Finally, Xiaobai found Luming and sixteen makeup artists wrapped in blankets and drinking hot milk next to an ambulance.

Police psychologists were providing routine counseling to the sixteen rescued makeup artists, while Lu Ming stood not far away, silently watching them.

"Miss Luming." Xiaobai walked to Luming's side and called out to her.

"..." Lu Ming turned his head and saw Xiao Bai walking up. Her gaze was very gentle. "Hmm."

"How's things going on your end?" Xiaobai asked.

"They're all fine now." Lu Ming looked at the makeup artist and answered softly, "The psychologist said their emotions are very stable now. It seems that someone gave them psychological counseling beforehand, so they shouldn't have any psychological trauma."

"Ah...it's my Akagi, isn't it?" Shiro nodded.

"..." Lu Ming was quiet for a moment, then turned his head to look at Xiao Bai, "Is Akagi the same?"

"Huh? What's the same?"

“Just like your Kaga.” Lu Ming looked into Xiao Bai’s eyes.

“…Only one of them is.” Xiaobai avoided Luming’s gaze, thought for a moment with some difficulty, and then nodded. “Yes…they are together.”

What Lu Ming was asking was whether Xiao Bai's Akagi was like Shen Hai, a Shen Hai dean who was subdued by Xiao Bai.

After receiving a positive reply from Xiaobai, Luming did not seem very surprised.

She closed her eyes and gently exhaled.

Lu Ming looked a bit more relaxed.

“Miss Shikamei, I can guarantee it with my entire admiral career,” Shiro whispered to Shikamei, “My Akagi and Kaga would never do anything wrong.”

"Mm." Lu Ming looked at Xiao Bai. "I believe you."

Xiao Bai smiled at Lu Ming, and her mood lightened considerably with Lu Ming's reply.

"Now, this should be considered a closed matter," Xiaobai said to Luming. "The person who sent you the threatening letter has been caught and apprehended. From now on, you can go back to work with peace of mind."

“…” Lu Ming nodded.

Xiaobai smiled and looked at the ambulance.

"Ah...right, Miss Luming, speaking of which, it turns out you've been hiding something from me all this time." Xiaobai looked at the ambulance and said with a smile, "Until today, I didn't know you weren't an ordinary person, and you hid it so well! I've been an admiral for so long, and I consider myself quite experienced in this area, but I couldn't find any clues about you before. How did you manage to do that..."

Xiao Bai said with a smile.

Suddenly, a "thump" sound came from beside me.

Xiao Bai turned his head to look.

The deer's cry beside me has disappeared.

Xiao Bai was startled. Recalling the voice from before, he subconsciously looked down at the ground.

On the bare concrete ground, the pale-faced deer lay silently, as if it had suffered a severe injury, its breath faint.

"Eh? Miss Luming???"

Lu Ming suddenly fainted.

This was a plot development that Xiaobai had never expected.

At first, Xiaobai thought that Luming didn't want to answer Xiaobai's question, but when Xiaobai squatted down and used the Admiral Network to check Luming's physical condition, she found that Luming's mental state was extremely disordered. The little bit of remaining spiritual power in her body had been stimulated by something and was now like a ball of boiling water, surging wildly in Luming's body.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem like an act.

While Xiaobai was examining Luming's body, the people in the ambulance also noticed that Luming had collapsed.

As the makeup artists cried out in alarm, the doctors rushed out of the ambulance.

After examining the unconscious Lu Ming, the doctors' faces instantly turned grim. They quickly carried Lu Ming onto a stretcher and put him in the ambulance. With sirens blaring, the ambulance sped off to the nearest public hospital.

Xiao Bai stared blankly at the ambulance as it drove away.

"Miss Luming, what's wrong?"

Back at the warehouse door, Akagi and Kaga were talking to the police taking their statements. When they saw Shiro return, the police quickly walked over to her and continued to question her about the details of the kidnapping.

Taking a statement takes a long time.

Two hours later, Xiaobai left the police station after completing all the statements and immediately took Akagi and Kaga to the hospital where Shikamaru was.

At the hospital entrance, Xiaobai met Lu Ming's agent, who had been waiting for her.

Lu Ming's manager still had that muscular appearance in a suit, but his expression was slightly serious. When he saw Xiao Bai approaching, Lu Ming's manager composed himself and waved in Xiao Bai's direction.

"Admiral Lu Lin, you really came." Lu Ming's agent walked up to Xiao Bai and thanked her, "I heard from the police that today's kidnapping case was made possible by your presence. Thank you very much."

"Hmm..." Xiaobai waved his hand and asked Lu Ming's manager, "How is Miss Lu Ming doing now?"

"He's out of danger and is lying in his hospital room."

"Huh? It's gotten so serious that it's described as 'out of danger'?" Xiaobai was stunned when she heard this. "Does it mean surgery is needed?"

“No, but…” When Lu Ming’s condition was mentioned, Lu Ming’s manager looked worried. He seemed to have a hard time explaining this to Xiao Bai. So after hesitating for a while, he said to Xiao Bai, “Anyway… the situation is a bit complicated, but it can’t be said to be particularly serious… Anyway, let’s go to Lu Ming’s ward first.”

"Oh! Okay!" Xiaobai nodded quickly upon hearing that she would be able to see Luming.

Lu Ming's agent led Xiao Bai and his group into the hospital and soon arrived outside Lu Ming's ward.

Lu Ming's agent knocked on the door first, then gently pushed it open.
