"Please stop arguing." Captain Fan was getting a headache from all the quarreling. He didn't know how to talk the girls down and could only scold them. "Rest while you have the chance. It won't be easy escaping the school."
The female student felt wronged. However, she couldn't find anyone that could speak up for her in this situation and could only kneel down and cry.
The guy beside her immediately came and comforted her.
Ming Shu sneered and continued tapping her knee with her fingers.
Captain Fan remained silent for a while before walking over to Ming Shu. "Thanks for your help just now."
"You're welcome." Ming Shu tilted her head. "You came to find me, after all. Once we escape, we won't owe each other anything and can go our separate ways. "
If they weren't here to find her, she wouldn't even have bothered to come in.
[...] Are you sure it isn't because Zheng Ye gave you snacks?
Well, it was a bit of both.
Captain Fan was slightly surprised. He didn't think that Ming Shu would say such words. After a while, he said, "Let me bring you back to the capital."
"There is no need to trouble yourself, I can go on my own."
In the dark, Captain Fan couldn't see the girl's expression. However, he could infer from her relaxed tone that she was not afraid nor hateful of Doomsday. To her, there was no difference between Doomsday and the normal world.
Are all the students so calm and composed?
Captain Fan would soon realize that some students were afraid too. Not everyone was composed like Ming Shu.
"This is my mission," Captain Fan insisted. As a soldier, it was his job to follow through with a mission as long as he was alive.
Ming Shu couldn't deny his words.
Half an hour later, Ning Le and the other captain returned and they started strategizing.
"I cannot leave. I have to go to this place. Captain Zhao, please bring the students out first." Captain Fan rejected Captain Zhao's plan.
"Your mission was the laboratory in the basement too?" Captain Zhao decided not to conceal his intentions anymore. "We've been there. The entrance is blocked unless you have explosives."
Captain Zhao's mission was to go to the laboratory and retrieve some reports. If there were survivors in the laboratory, they could rescue them along the way too.
As for Captain Fan, his mission was just the survivors.
"I still have to take a look," Captain Fan insisted.
"Let's move together, then. We don't have much ammunition left. If we split up, there is a higher chance of us dying." Captain Zhao had already suffered many losses and had no ammunition left. If they split, he had no confidence that he would succeed in escaping.
"That..." A male student with a fringe slowly raised his hand. "There is another way into that laboratory."
"Really?" Captain Fan and Captain Zhao said simultaneously.
The student nodded his head and looked around, asking the student beside him, "This is the North Section right?"
The other student scanned the surroundings and nodded. "This is the North Section. We should be at the Music Department now."
