Chapter 339: Sadness and Tears Flowing into a River 12
Until this morning, when the two were about to go fishing, Yi Yao's phone suddenly rang: "Yaoyao, this is Grandpa Wang! Is it convenient to answer the phone now?" Yi Yao glanced at her mother and replied: "Yes! Go ahead, Grandpa Wang!"
Academician Wang said, "Yi Yao, all members of the Cheetah Commando Team have gone missing in the Brazilian rainforest. The area is densely forested, with no signal coverage in many areas! There are also many venomous insects and ferocious beasts. Before losing contact with the outside world, Captain Luo Cheng was shot several times and bitten by a venomous snake. Your Grandfather Li said you are an expert in poison techniques and pharmacology. Could you please join the rescue team to provide assistance?"
Yi Yao pondered for a moment and replied, "Yes, there's no need for a rescue team! Just send a plane to take me there alone. Please prepare some things for me, and I'll send them to you later! The more people there are, the bigger the target. They are in a more dangerous situation. They are only missing now, and it's not certain whether their lives are in danger! I will be less conspicuous if I go alone, and I can protect myself. Otherwise, Master, you wouldn't have called me!"
Academician Wang said solemnly, "Yaoyao, Grandpa Wang has no other choice. Your Grandpa Li agreed that I should call you. If it weren't for the absolute necessity, I wouldn't want to call you either! Of Old Man Luo's five sons, except for the old man who has a disabled thigh, only this youngest son is still alive. The other three have sacrificed their lives for the country. His family has been in the military for generations and has made great contributions to the country. I really can't bear to see my old friend go through the pain of seeing his son die! Sorry! Yaoyao..."
Yi Yao thought for a moment and said slowly, "Grandpa Wang, don't blame yourself! I understand. Please arrange for someone to send my mother back! I'll go directly to Brazil from here!"
Academician Wang: "Okay! Be careful! If you can't find them, forget it, but you must return safely! Grandpa will be waiting for your return..."
Yi Yao replied, "Okay!" After hanging up the phone, Old Wang was slapped hard by Academician Li who came in from outside.
Academician Li was furious and said, "Old Wang, do you know how dangerous this is? Why did you involve Miss Yao? She has made great contributions to the country over the years. Are you getting senile and confused?"
Academician Wang said gravely, "If there were any other way, why would I have called Yaoyao? You know that Luo Cheng had been shot multiple times and poisoned before he lost contact. Their mission this time was to retrieve evidence of biological weapons in Brazil! I really can't bear to see old Luo go through the pain of seeing his son die!"
Academician Li was so angry that his face turned pale. "Then you are not afraid of what happens to Yao Yao! If anything happens to Yao Yao, I will never give up!" After saying this, he left angrily...
Academician Wang was left alone in his office, crouching there with a dejected look on his face. He didn't want his beloved disciple to risk anything. If he hadn't known the girl possessed special skills, he would never have made that call. Now, the only thing he could do for the girl was to ensure her mother's safe return to Beijing and to provide her with everything she needed. He just hoped her journey would be smooth...
After hanging up the phone, Yi Yao looked at her mother and said slowly, "Mom, someone will come to pick you up and take you back to Beijing later! I have something important to do and need to be away for a few days. When I come back, we'll find another place to play!"
Mother Yi held Yi Yao's hand tightly and said in a deep voice: "Okay! Mom will wait for you at home. Yaoyao, you must remember that only when you are well can Mom be well!" Yi Yao nodded, then got in the car and rushed towards the military airport. At the airport, the soldiers had already packed everything Yi Yao needed and were waiting for her arrival. When Yi Yao showed up, they handed the things to her, and then the plane took off and flew straight to the Brazilian rainforest. After boarding the plane, Yi Yao closed her eyes and rested, because she was afraid that she would not have time to rest, at least before finding the Cheetah Squad. After more than ten hours of flight, the plane arrived at a place not far from the last place where Luo Cheng was before he lost contact. The pilot told Yi Yao solemnly: "Major, the plane cannot land here. You can only parachute down by yourself!"
Yi Yao, parachute in hand, loaded her belongings securely, and secured the ropes. Then, the cabin door opened and, without hesitation, she jumped out. After confirming Yi Yao's safe landing, the pilot took off.
