Chapter 447: Whose Hand Will the Deer Die?

Tang Ye's sudden disappearance even caused panic at the military base. Perhaps everyone hadn't realized how much hope his arrival had brought, alleviating the rampant disease, and how deeply it had affected them. It was as if they had grasped a lifesaving straw, only for it to break at the most critical moment.

Having hope and then despairing again is even more unbearable than being in despair from the start.

Before leaving, Tang Ye had told Wang Jianjia that he would hurry back, but now that he hadn't yet been seen, she was very worried. She was worried both about Tang Ye encountering trouble and about something happening to the base. Just then, Peng Huaicai, who had once again fallen ill, emerged from the fortress supported by two military doctors. Wang Jianjia hurried over; they couldn't afford to have the old gentleman push himself any further.
