His troops chased him as he ran recklessly toward the direction of the avalanche. Then, they saw the valley had been buried by snow, leaving only a little ridge visible. “Richard!” Captain Anderson shouted loudly. Anxious, he was unable to determine his last known location.
“In our assessment, Richard should have landed somewhere near there…” When one of the men pointed in the direction, all they saw was a snowy meadow, leaving them with heavy hearts.
A person’s chances of survival were minimal in an avalanche. Even if they were still alive, they were buried beneath the snow.
“Grab the equipment. Get his location, quick! We must rescue Richard!” Captain Anderson yelled and instructed his men, “Drop whatever you’re doing and join with the rescue. He must still be alive. I don’t think he’s dead for a second. He’s tougher than any of us.” The team grabbed the equipment and began looking for his location.
“Captain Anderson, I believe Richard is buried quite deep. Nothing is detected by the sensor. Captain Lloyd might be…” The team member could not continue his conversation since he was upset that the device was not getting any signals.
“Just continue. Carry the sensor with you as you go. Richard must be in this location.” Because Captain Anderson had told the vice-president that they would return in one piece, he was unwilling to give up even the slightest possibility of survival.
The team members began to walk around the area while holding the sensor. Even though their fingers and toes were numb from the cold, they kept going.
Captain Anderson had been shot in the shoulder during the gunfight. He felt depressed just now, partially kneeling on the ground, and wished he could at least catch a glimpse of Richard’s body.
However, due to the lack of news, Captain Anderson would be unable to return Richard’s body home.
He punched the snow ground as tears welled up in his eyes. “Richard Lloyd, you’re a moron. Everyone thinks you’re divine, yet you’re still human in the end. How could you have died at such an early age?”
Everyone fell silent when they saw their captain break down, knowing that Richard’s chances of survival were close to none. Nobody could possibly survive an avalanche. In fact, he leaped from a helicopter tens of meters above the ground. Even if a person was physically fit, their legs would surely hurt.
“Don’t be like this, Captain Anderson. Captain Lloyd is our hero and we all respect him.” One of the team members comforted Captain Anderson.
“If we want to find him, we’ll need an excavation. Otherwise…” Another team member became distraught for a little moment.
Captain Anderson punched the ground again, obviously in deep sadness. Then, a team member yelled, “There’s a signal here! There’s a signal!”
They all raced over when they noticed a weak continuous signal from the sensor, indicating that it was Richard.
Captain Anderson ordered, “Dig fast!”
Some team members went back and grabbed shovels; those who could move around dug based on the signal displayed in the sensor. Finally, they dug about half a meter before a hand emerged from the snow, which made everyone cheer.
They continued searching until half of Richard’s body was exposed. He looked like a warrior in the snow with an invincible spirit, breaking free from the terrible situation.
“You moron.” Captain Anderson jumped in the hole and hugged him. Using the last of his strength to pat him on the back, Richard replied, “Don’t worry, Captain Anderson. I-I won’t let your mission fail…” He fainted after saying those words.
“Captain Lloyd!”
“It’s fine. He just fainted. Carry him quickly to the car and bring him back.” Captain Anderson looked at him being taken away, and remarked, “You really are one tough young man.”
They kept Richard warm in the car while administering first aid to him, and the entire team was discussing him. He had a vivid dream. It began when he drifted in and out of consciousness while buried in snow, and this dream was the only thing keeping him alive. In the dream, a woman smiled and kept calling out to him.
“Richard, you can do it! You must come back!”
“I’m waiting for you, Richard! Don’t you die on me!”
“Richard…”
It was the sound of Angela’s voice.She would constantly smile at him, and at one moment, she would cry and beg him to come to her. Her words gave him strength while he was buried deep beneath the snow. Little by little, he climbed. Even though he was on the brink of death, he forced himself to stay alive so that he could see her again. Whatever he promised her, he was going to keep it.
Midway through the drive, Richard experienced a high fever and fell unconscious. When he was in such a state of delirium, everyone could hear him mumble, “Angela!”
Everyone can guess who Angela is. It must be the woman Richard loves! Did he only manage to crawl out from the snow because this person gave him the strength he needed?
Meanwhile, at the vice-president’s office, the man who had just hung up the phone heaved a massive sigh as if releasing some tension. He had just finished hearing about the most recent situation. The news was both startling and reassuring. They had completed the mission and were on their way back.
Ren phoned Scarlet to deliver the news. He would not mention the unpleasant process; only a safe return result will be reported.
“Really? Richard completed his mission and victoriously returned?” She shed joyful tears.
“Yes. Richard finally got his wish.”
“That’s great. Richard has finally avenged his father. I believe his heart can now be at peace. He is not hurt, is he?”
“Mostly superficial injuries. There isn’t much other than a fracture in his leg.”
“We don’t even know how bad his injury is!” Scarlet still felt pain in her heart since she couldn’t bear the thought of her son being injured.
“It is nothing. He’ll get treated when he returns.”
“Ren, try to transfer him back! After all, he and Angela will soon be married. I don’t want him to follow in his father’s footsteps by constantly traveling the world.”
“Okay! I’ll work to get him transferred back within this year.”
Scarlet cheerfully replied, “That will be great. If that happens, I’ll be there to keep him company. We’ve grown apart since he hasn’t been staying with me all these years.” She then questioned, “Is the Translation Department also hiring?”
“I’m not too sure. Why?”
“Ruka will be returning soon. So, I wanted to find out whether they were hiring. If they are, she can give it a shot because she specializes in translation.”
“Ruka has returned?” Ren asked, his voice solemn.
“Yes. She’ll be back by next week.
“Okay. I’ll ask around,” he calmly stated.
After the call ended, he contacted the Translation Department. “Are you planning to hire?”
“May I know who is asking?” “Ren Husson,” he spoke in an authoritative voice.
