Chapter 96: Race Against Time

After four hours of arduous negotiations, the negotiations broke down at ten o'clock in the evening. Although Jeanne had tried her best to delay the time, she still failed.

Judas had already noticed that Jeanne was stalling for time, but for General Armstrong's sake, he still gave Jeanne enough face.

After spending a full four hours with Jeanne, and Jeanne having nothing more to say, he got up and said with a smile, "It's very late, Miss. You should go back and rest early." 

"Lieutenant General should also go to rest early. You have come a long way, I'm sure it's hard on you," Jeanne said. 

"Don't worry, Miss. I'm a short sleeper, and there are still many things waiting for me to deal with. I can't sleep well if it's not finished yet." 

Frode, who had been quiet all the time, finally stood up and spoke to Jeanne.

"If Escarte has something to do, just let him go, Miss Jeanne. Come with me, I have something to ask you." 

Jeanne knew that she could no longer stop Judas and had already planned to use extraordinary means.

At this juncture, Frode suddenly said those words to her, causing Jeanne to freeze for a moment before following Frode's lead, thinking that maybe things had changed. 

"Okay, then Lieutenant General, I won't waste your time anymore," Jeanne said politely.

After Judas left, Frode took Jeanne to the garage while informing her of the change in situation. 

"My people sent a message just now that basically all the deviants scattered in the city have been assembled and now they have all been brought to the warehouse." 

"So soon?" Jeanne looked at Frode's, surprised. 

"Yes, because a lot of people have died, and most of the remaining people have always followed Donna, so it's easier than we thought. They have their own unique contact information, as well as the intercom device we gave them to assist. My people also communicate with them secretly, so it's pretty fast. It's just that... there are still some people left, but it's quite difficult to rescue them." 

"What do you mean?" Jeanne frowned, asking another question. 

"Right now, there are about 30 to 40 deviants in the square in front of the military hospital." 

"I already know this. What I don't understand is why you say it's difficult to rescue them?" 

"Donna told me that when she rushed to the military hospital, she found that the 180th Division had appeared at the entrance of the hospital, and the number was quite large. It seemed that the wounded were sent for treatment, but now a large number of the 180th Division were there. The gate of the hospital is blocked, clearly targeting this group of the most conspicuous deviants." 

"Damn, are we still outwitted by that lunatic?" Jeanne gritted her teeth. 

"Anyway, let's rush to the military hospital now. Maybe we can still save this group of people. Judas had just left, and he probably already received the news. Now, this is a race between us and him. Whoever gets to the hospital first will be able to take the initiative." 

The two walked in a hurry, almost running, to the garage, got into an armored car, and immediately galloped to the military hospital.

Jeanne clicked on the ID, hesitating whether to contact Keiko. Keiko was now injured and weak. She was probably resting at the moment.

Even if she was awake and told her about it, she wouldn't be of much help. After hesitating for a moment, she dialed Dr. Leah's ID. 

"Major Armstrong? Why are you contacting me this late? What's the matter?"

Dr. Leah, clad in a white coat, appeared on the video call. 

"Doctor Leah, is Lieutenant Keiko still awake?" 

"Major really cares about Lieutenant Lee," said Leah, giggling softly, "She was busy all day and fell asleep after having dinner. Now she is sleeping soundly."

Ignoring Leah's teasing, Jeanne felt something wasn't quite right and asked.

"Busy all day?" 

"Yes, she has been busy all day treating the injured deviants at the entrance of the hospital. Oh, I really don't expect that Second Lieutenant Keiko actually has abundant experience in treating wounds and surgery, and she is also quite skilled at stitching and bandage—" 

"You said she has been in contact with the deviants?! Is she okay?" Jeanne interrupted Leah. 

Leah was stunned, then nodded and said, "Yeah, she's fine and recovering well. I still find it strange. Is there something wrong with her alignment value?" 

"Don't worry about it for now. Can you do me a favor and go look at the hospital gate now? See if there is a group of soldiers in air force uniforms or not." 

"Oh, what a coincidence. My room window happens to be facing the hospital gate square directly, and I saw it just now. They should be from the 180th Air Force Division. Is there any problem?" 

"I'll call you again." Jeanne hung up after saying that. 

Jeanne didn't plan to tell too many people about Judas's plan to massacre the deviants, because she knew that the deviants' issues were too sensitive and most people didn't want to get involved at all, and Dr. Leah was probably no exception. 

What's more, the suspicion of this Doctor Leah has not yet been cleared, and Jeanne still doesn't trust her. 

In the dark of night, Jeanne sat in the armored car, hesitated again and again, and finally dialed Keiko's ID.

Keiko, who was deep in sleep, was suddenly awakened by the vibration of her bracelet ID, and she connected the video call in a daze, with the laziness in her voice when she just woke up. 

"Hello? Major?" 

"Keiko, I'm sorry I woke you up suddenly,"

Jeanne's wristband ID holographic screen showed Keiko lying on her side. She still had her bed face, was only half awake, and looked a bit lost and cute.

Her bed eyes were looking at Jeanne in a daze, stirring the desire in Jeanne to spoil and pamper her, so her voice subconsciously became inexplicably gentle.

"It's alright. What's going on?"

The picture on Jeanne's holographic screen trembled twice. It was Keiko who sat up, wiped his face with his hands, and stroked her messy black hair.

She was just waking up and didn't seem to notice how Jeanne called her just now. 

Jeanne looked at the screen, smiled softly, and then explained the ins and outs of the matter to Keiko in the simplest and clearest words. 

"I understand. Leave it to me." Keiko said solemnly. 

"I'll be there soon. Before that, it'll depend on you." 

After hanging up the call, Keiko got up, took off his hospital gown, and started changing into his military uniform. While getting dressed, she began to map the layout of the hospital gate in her mind. 

Just now, Jeanne gave her a task to stun all the soldiers of the 180th Division who were blocking the door of the hospital, and then, together with Donna, who was responding outside, transfer the deviants at the door. 

This task was not difficult per se, but if you added a time limit, it would be really difficult.

Whether it was Jeanne or Judas, they could arrive within 20 minutes at the fastest. Therefore, the time limit for her task was set at 20 minutes.

The faster it was completed, the higher the survival rate of the deviants, which meant that the more people she could save.
