"So it still won't work..." Captain Guan looked embarrassed. He lowered his head, unconsciously rubbing his palms together, not knowing what to say.
At this moment, Kallen spoke up: "Rulu, don't be angry. This isn't Captain Guan's fault. You know that we're surrounded by barren mountains, with only poor villages and towns nearby, nothing like the abundant resources in the concession area. Besides, Sanctuary troops are searching for us everywhere. Captain Guan ran to several villages and towns at great risk to get this medicine."
A-Bing also said: "That's right. If you want to blame someone, blame that damned Sanctuary. It has nothing to do with our captain."
"That's true. I'm sorry..." Rulu was a reasonable person and immediately stopped being angry. He turned his gaze to Nana and said softly: "But if this continues, I'm afraid Nana won't make it."
Captain Guan said: "What if I try to secretly sneak into the concession area to see if I can buy some medicine there and bring it back?"
This suggestion was immediately opposed by Kallen: "No way. I heard that because of the previous governor's death, the entire concession area is in chaos. Security in the concession area is several times stricter than before. Going there now would be suicidal."
Captain Guan said: "Then what should we do? Should we just watch Nana's condition worsen? Nana isn't like us who are used to such a harsh life. If her illness continues like this, it could threaten her life."
Kallen said: "Let's think of another way. Just don't go to the concession area."
Captain Guan sighed deeply and said self-reproachfully: "I couldn't save Mayor Qiao, and now I can't even save his daughter. I've truly failed to repay Mayor Qiao for his years of help to us."
At this point, Rulu spoke up: "Captain Guan, don't blame yourself. I'll find a way to solve Nana's problem."
"Rulu, you have a solution?!" Captain Guan looked expectantly at Rulu. He knew Rulu was both intelligent and capable. Since Rulu said this, he must really have a plan.
Rulu nodded: "Could you help prepare a set of clean clothes for Nana and me, as well as some hats and masks, preferably with decorative glasses? Also, please prepare a decent small car for me. Can you get these things?"
After thinking for a moment, Captain Guan said: "That shouldn't be a problem. But what do you need these things for, Rulu?"
The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there.
"Just prepare them for me first, Captain Guan. I'll explain later."
"Alright, I understand. Wait here, I'll be back soon." With these words, Captain Guan hurriedly left the cave dwelling to handle Rulu's requests, while A-Bing and Kallen remained in the cave, chatting casually while waiting for Captain Guan to return.
At this time, a special news report came from the radio:
"Recently, a terrorist attack occurred in the city center of Blue Sea City. In this incident, the Sanctuary Special Governor and several other military members were unfortunately killed. The mayor and his wife also perished in this terrorist attack, while the mayor's daughter and adopted son are missing.
According to Sanctuary sources, this terrorist attack was carried out by external rebel organizations. The purpose behind the rebels' attack is currently unclear. Sanctuary has strengthened security measures within the concession area to prevent similar incidents from happening again. We will continue to track and report detailed information..."
Hearing this, A-Bing couldn't help but exclaim: "These Sanctuary bastards are such liars! Mayor Qiao was clearly killed by that governor, yet they push the blame onto us. They have no shame."
Kallen, looking unsurprised, said: "Of course. They can't possibly say it was their own Sanctuary people who killed Mayor Qiao. If they admitted that, it would incite public anger. To maintain order in Blue Sea City, they would never acknowledge this."
A-Bing asked: "So we're definitely taking the blame for this?"
Kallen replied: "What can we do? Besides, haven't we been blamed for many things over the years?"
A-Bing cursed: "This won't do. We can't let their conspiracy succeed. I'll go tell Fox to issue a statement, revealing the truth and exposing their lies."
Rulu suddenly said: "No, don't do that. Actually, their reporting this way is beneficial for us."
"Huh? There's a benefit to taking the blame?" A-Bing looked at Rulu in confusion.
Rulu said: "Yes. Since they dare not publicly admit they killed Mayor Qiao, they also won't dare to publicly pursue Nana and me. This works in our favor. Even if Nana and I return to the concession area, there shouldn't be much of a problem."
Hearing this, Kallen was shocked and said: "You want to return to the concession area with Nana? You can't do that! Even if they don't publicly pursue you, the military will secretly hunt for you. Going there would be walking into a trap."
Rulu smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have ways to handle this. Besides, the concession area is the only place where Nana's illness can be treated."
Kallen asked: "So your plan to save Nana is to return to the concession area?!"
"More or less. When we escaped from the concession area, Uncle Qiao told me he had secretly purchased a house there. The location of this house is very discreet. Nana and I should be fine living there."
Kallen questioned: "But now the security in the concession area is stricter than before, and that underground tunnel has been completely sealed off by Sanctuary. How will you enter the concession area without being discovered by Sanctuary?"
Rulu didn't answer Kallen's question. Instead, he scanned both Kallen and A-Bing with his gaze, his eyes showing a strange light, and commanded: "You two, come give me a back massage."
A-Bing was taken aback. He sat on his stool without moving and said displeasedly: "What did you say? Who do you think you are, ordering me to give you a back massage?!"
"Understood," Kallen, however, agreed to Rulu's request. She quickly stood up, walked behind Rulu, and placed her hands on his shoulders, beginning to massage them.
