Chapter 762 - 365: Father and Son Reunited? (Part 2)

"Big brother! Big brother! What’s happening over there?" Huaifeng’s heart suddenly thumped hard, an ominous suspicion occupying his mind. The possible future that loomed made him forget to breathe for a moment, his limbs trembling and cold.

However, no matter how Huaifeng called out, there was only the monotonous buzzing in his ears. He frantically attempted to connect with his big brother six times, but each attempt failed. There was no way he could hear his brother’s safe and sound voice. This was definitely a heavy blow for him, breaking even the calmness honed on the battlefield, almost making him lift a foot to kick something for emotional release.

Since the day he joined the Military Department, he knew he would face this situation one day. He was told to take a light view of his and others’ lives and deaths. But when this situation was likely to fall upon his brother, he found himself utterly unable to stay calm!

His brother Huaixi was the closest blood tie to Huaifeng in the world, even closer than their great-grandfather. Huaixi meant the world to Huaifeng, not just as a brother but also as a spiritual pillar.

While pushing the Mecha’s speed to the limit, Huaifeng attempted to connect the other’s communication device. Just as he was about to break down and cry, he heard a [beep——] and the communication restored to normal. Huaixi’s voice sounded slightly weak, his breath uneven compared to before, but to Huaifeng, it was a heavenly sound, spirited rather than one of a dying person.

"Big brother, big brother! What happened over there?" Huaifeng asked with a trembling voice.

Unexpectedly, a slightly cool, youthful voice came from the other side, "Directly calling me ’big brother’ is too presumptuous and against regulations. During official duties, please address me as serial GHX1117, or Sergeant Gu, either way is fine."

Huaifeng was momentarily stumped, his voice halted awkwardly, then quickly escalated, "Big brother, big brother, big brother, big brother... I just like calling you this way, and now it’s just the two of us on the channel. Can you be a bit more approachable?"

Over the years, Huaifeng’s relentless and charming tantrum skills have rapidly progressed, but faced with his increasingly icy brother, even the cutest tactics fell flat! Huaixi just coldly repeated, "Call me Sergeant or serial GHX1117."

Huaifeng, annoyed and relieved that his brother wasn’t dead, felt his previously tight chest relax slightly but refused to back down, "Big brother, can you not be so stubborn? Lighten up a bit, no one will die from it..."

Huaixi was too lazy to argue with his little brother about this issue at this time, "Now’s not the time to get tangled in this issue. We need to change our combat plan. By the time you arrive, we might already be done. By the way, the mission failed."

Huaifeng was puzzled, but knowing what the last four words meant was enough. Why did the mission inexplicably fail?

In fact, the brothers were not the main organizers of this operation but were assisting in breaking through to capture Su Qinwu and her followers. Even if the mission failed, they wouldn’t bear the principal responsibility. Or to put it more clearly, if not for those Little Bears’ involvement in this matter, the brothers wouldn’t even be here executing this somewhat [boring] mission.

The twins had inborn tacit understanding and telepathy that outsiders couldn’t grasp. Even though Huaifeng didn’t ask aloud, it didn’t prevent Huaixi from continuing to answer, "An accident occurred during the mission. Except for the gangster leader and a few followers who successfully escaped, the kidnapped children were rescued, along with other unexpected discoveries... Overall, it’s considered as compensation."

Huaifeng and Huaixi’s development directions were different, but as twins, a difference in personality didn’t mean a difference in intelligence.

Huaifeng subtly felt a slight difference in his brother’s mood and suspected this change might be related to the previous sudden disconnection, [How could it be him...]. Who did his brother encounter?

"Whether you come over or not doesn’t matter. It’s already wrapped up." Huaixi slightly lowered his slightly silent black eyes, as if hiding the most brilliant stars for a moment, demonstrating an age-inappropriate rationality and poise.
