Li Yunlong asked.

"Ah, that's right. If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten that I don't smoke."

Li Jingrong said with a smile.

"Then why did you think of smoking today?"

"I can't help it. Things have been rather hectic lately, so I thought of smoking."

As soon as Li Jingrong lit his cigarette, he thought of his squad leader.

"When I was in the army, there were rules and regulations that prohibited smoking. If you were caught, you would be punished."

"Let the squad leader of each group be responsible for supervision and report any problems."

"But at that time, our group had a very good relationship with the squad leader. Since the squad leader had been in the army for a long time, he was very familiar with the situation in every part of the army."

"So every time, the squad leader would take a few of us to a place secretly and smoke."

Then Li Jingrong took a deep breath.

“Thinking about it, that was a really happy time.”

Li Yunlong understood Li Jingrong's feeling better.

"If you want to smoke, go ahead. After all, men always have troubles and need to relax through something."

Li Yunlong patted Li Jingrong on the shoulder and said.

"Then you keep smoking, I'll go over there and take a look."

After saying this, Li Yunlong continued his search.

Li Jingrong was also walking casually while smoking.

Li Jingrong walked to a place not far from the woods.

So he stopped there, smoking a cigarette and looking at the scenery in the distance.

But at this moment, I heard the sound of a machine.

Because he had heard it once before, when he heard the sound, he immediately knew what it was.

He randomly put out the cigarette and began to determine the location of the sound based on its general direction.

He followed the sound and listened as he walked. The sound was not loud and could be heard faintly.

Then he came to a wood and stopped when he came near the sound.

Looking around, I found that there was a small open space here.

And after carefully comparing it with the surrounding trees, I found that it was indeed man-made.

Then he returned to the place to find Li Yunlong, and did not forget to make a mark when he left.

At this time, Li Yunlong was wandering around.

He heard hurried footsteps behind him and turned to look.

He found that Li Jingrong was running towards him with big strides.

"What's wrong, Comrade Jingrong? Have you finished your cigarette?"

"Quick! Quick!"

Li Jingrong said breathlessly.

"What's wrong? Why are you making such a fuss? Did you discover something?"

"Yes, yes, yes! Just now, when I was smoking in the woods, I heard the sound of machinery. Then I followed the sound and found that there was indeed an underground passage."

As soon as Li Jingrong finished speaking, Li Yunlong became excited.

"Ah! Have you found the entrance? Come on, let's go over there!"

Then the two of them hurriedly followed Li Jingrong's previous mark and came to this place.

Then the two of them lay on the ground, listening intently with their ears close to the ground.

They heard the sound of a lot of machinery working inside.

"What do we do now? Should we break in?"

"Breaking in is definitely not an option. We don't even know where the switch is, let alone breaking in."

Li Jingrong said.

"Let's find the mechanism first, and then discuss other things."

Then the two of them started looking for a switch near the woods.

But after searching for a long time, neither of them found the switch.

"Damn it! The mechanism is well hidden. If I can't find it, I'll go down and chop you all into pieces."

Li Yunlong cursed and stomped his feet.

It would have been fine if he hadn't stomped his foot, but when he did, he stepped on the mechanism.

Then the open space behind the two of them moved.

The open space slowly moved backwards, and soon an entrance appeared.

As the entrance opened, the sounds of machinery in motion became clearer.

The two looked at each other in amazement.

"That's amazing, Captain Li! You stepped right on the mechanism."

"It seems like your feet are divine, hahahaha."

"Hehehe, luck, luck, I didn't expect that the mechanism is right under my feet."

"Okay, let's stop talking here and go in and see what's going on inside."

Li Jingrong said.

Then the two of them went in one after another from the underground entrance.

The machines inside were humming, and the two of them walked forward carefully, sticking to the wall.

Suddenly they heard footsteps and quickly retreated a few steps.

After the footsteps disappeared, the two continued to move forward.

"Hey, what do you think is in here? Why is the machine making such a loud noise?"

"I think it's most likely the research and development base for mycophenolic acid capsules."

"Are you sure? I don't think so!"

Li Yunlong continued to ask.

"Then wasn't our original purpose of coming here to investigate the underground passage?"

"Now that our goal has been achieved, we need to know what's going on inside. There's also the worse case scenario, what if it's some other new type of weapon?"

Li Jingrong said seriously.

Finally, the two of them quietly came to the gate of the base and secretly poked their heads in to look.

Li Jingrong saw a large number of mycophenolate mofetil capsules at a glance.

"Sure enough, they are indeed producing a large amount of mycophenolic acid."

As soon as Li Jingrong finished speaking, Li Yunlong quickly stuck his head out to observe.

"Oh my goodness! How many of them have been produced?"

The two saw tons of mycophenolate mofetil capsules and they couldn't believe what they saw.

"It seems we came to the right place. This place is indeed unusual."

Li Jingrong talked to himself.

"Let's retreat first, return to Wolf Mountain immediately, and lead the troops to clean up this place."

Li Jingrong said.

The two then retreated from the underground passage.

Li Jingrong drove out the car and the two of them drove back to Langshan together.

Li Jingrong was driving distractedly along the way, and his attention was focused on the scene he had just seen for a long time.

When Li Yunlong saw Li Jingrong like this, he hurriedly reminded him.

"Comrade Jingrong, we've already reached Wolf Mountain. Why are you still driving in?"

Li Jingrong braked immediately after hearing this.

Li Jingrong unbuckled his seat belt.

"Let's go, let's get off the car quickly."

As Li Jingrong was about to open the car door, Li Yunlong quickly stopped him.

"What bus are you getting off? Look carefully at where this is."

Li Jingrong came to his senses and found that they had not reached Langshan.

"What's wrong with you? You've been distracted since you got on the bus."

"If I hadn't reminded us, we would have fallen into the ditch in a moment."

Li Yunlong shouted loudly.

"Is there something wrong with you, Comrade Jingrong?"

"I don't know either, but I feel really bad when I think about the tragic situation in Windmill Town."

"That feeling is the same as my class monitor's. You may not be able to understand it."

"I wonder why we feel so helpless sometimes? I never understand."

Li Jingrong scratched his head as he spoke.

"Are there a lot of things you can't let go of? We should be more carefree. Since we don't have the ability to save so many lives, then we will do our best to help them get revenge."

"No one is born a hero. All we can do is help everyone as much as possible. Take your squad leader for example."

"The reason your squad leader was there to protect you was because he knew if he hadn't protected you, you would be lying on the ground now."

"He can't just stand by and watch you die, or kill all the enemies. All he can do is try his best to protect you. So since he's protecting you, all you have to do is try your best to remember him in your heart."

"Since the villagers of Windmill Town sacrificed their lives because of us, what we need to do is to wipe out all these enemies, leaving no one alive. This is the only way to show our righteousness to them."

Li Yunlong was talking as he walked around.

Li Jingrong stood there, thought for a while, and suddenly raised his head.

"You're right, Captain Li. Since we can't be perfect, we'll just try our best."

"Let's go. Let's hurry back to Wolf Mountain and report today's events. We'll then come up with a plan."

Li Jingrong then continued to drive Li Yunlong back to Langshan.

After a two-hour journey, the two of them returned home safely.

The two of them walked directly towards the room of Commissioner Liu Yuxiang.

Li Jingrong knocked on the door and Liu Yuxiang was about to open it.

"Where did you two go? I went looking for you this morning, but I couldn't knock on either of your doors."

"Come in and tell me where you've been."

Then the two of them followed in.

Commissioner Liu Yuxiang was writing while listening to the two of them talking.

Li Jingrong then recounted what had happened from last night to today.

"After I led the team back from Windmill Town that day, I felt something was still wrong."

"First of all, I would like to apologize to the Commissioner for my unauthorized actions."

"The reason I didn't say anything was because I didn't want to let everyone know before something was confirmed. This would only cause panic. Besides, haven't we been researching anti-chloroquine lately? So I wanted everyone to focus on their research and not be distracted."

Political Commissar Liu Yuxiang also put down the pen after hearing this.

"Oh? Then tell me, what did you discover?"

"Captain Li and I went to Fengche Town again, and as expected, we discovered that there was an underground passage there."

"So we found the mechanism and went down to observe secretly."

"They have converted Windmill Town into their underground base for manufacturing penicillic acid capsules."

"What! They actually acted so quickly."

"Yes, they probably knew that we would go to investigate Windmill Town, so they deliberately built the underground base under Windmill Town."

"This way, the more dangerous places become safer."

"They thought they could evade our search this way, but they missed a step."

"They never imagined that a capsule of their myclobutanil dropped on the ground would allow us to search their underground base."

Li Jingrong said.

"Okay, then what is Comrade Jingrong going to do next?"

"Since the enemy thinks we can't find it, they'll naturally let down their guard. We'll take advantage of this opportunity to lead our team to encircle and destroy their underground base."

Li Jingrong suggested.
