Chapter 1059: Chapter 1059: Three Events Finally Conclude

Gao Mantang felt relieved after hearing that his grandson was out of danger. No matter what happened to Gao Zhitao afterward, he was alive, while Zhang Dacheng had died without leaving a trace, dissipated into the surrounding air.

Meanwhile, on Xiang Yu’s side, with three minutes left until noon, they had cleared all the known bombs, but Xiang Yu couldn’t be sure if there were more bombs elsewhere.

Therefore, he ordered his brothers to retreat and stood quietly watching from a distance.

There were no survivors inside now, so even if an explosion occurred, it would only cause economic damage, not casualties.

Tie Zhuzi checked his watch and began the countdown.

Just as the hand pointed to twelve o’clock, there was a slight explosion inside, damaging all the electrical equipment, and the phone signal was suddenly blocked.

"So that’s it." Xiang Yu felt relieved after seeing that there was no major explosion.

Then Tie Zhuzi was left with the Heavenly Dragon Gang brothers to handle the aftermath while Xiang Yu and Xiao Xuan headed to the mall building.

When they drove there, the situation was nearing its end. Only Gao Zhitao was injured and sent to the hospital.

Meanwhile, Li Kui and the terrorists present had been subdued by Kong Shenghui and his team.

Seeing this outcome, Xiang Yu was relieved. Then he drove to the airport.

However, before reaching the airport, he saw thick black smoke rising from the airport location from afar.

He accelerated and arrived there but was stopped by soldiers near the airport.

Xiang Yu didn’t go in; he just watched from outside.

There were many bodies on the ground, evidently terrorists. In the middle was a burning plane, and not far away stood Gao Mantang.

From this angle, Gao Mantang looked like an ordinary old man, standing there isolated as if he had lost his child.

Seeing the situation there was resolved, Xiang Yu drove to the hospital.

Gao Zhitao was just temporarily unconscious and had fractured a few ribs but suffered no substantial harm.

When Kong Shenghui saw Xiang Yu, he pulled him aside with a serious expression and said, "How much do you know about these matters?"

Xiang Yu shook his head and replied, "I don’t know, I only came to see Gao Zhitao today."

Xiang Yu knew Kong Shenghui and the relationship between Kong Shenghui and Gao Zhitao, but with all these events happening, Xiang Yu didn’t know what impact it would have.

Theoretically, Xiang Yu was just an outsider, not involved in politics, nor did he understand much about political affairs. It’s better not to say anything if possible.

Kong Shenghui nodded, sighed, and walked away upon seeing Xiang Yu’s expression.

Xiang Yu checked on Gao Zhitao and, seeing he was fine, returned to the hotel. He knew that after this event, Gao Zhitao would surely become famous.

Politicians would definitely come to greet Gao Zhitao. Xiang Yu didn’t want to meet them, so it’s better to avoid them.

The news of the three incidents quickly spread throughout the city, with everyone discussing these matters.

The rumors grew bigger after being spread, with some saying the airport had been blown up, and others predicting World War III was about to start.

There were even claims that enemy agents had infiltrated the country, planning to start a war, with City No. 2 being their target.

The rumors became increasingly exaggerated, but even by the following night, no official statement had been made.

Some city residents started to panic, leading some to move away with their families.

Meanwhile, Xiang Yu and his group resumed their usual lives. He was a participant in all the events, knowing the truth behind them all.

Yet Xiang Yu was an outsider; no one knew of his existence.

Currently, Gao Zhitao was the busiest. On the first day, he woke up, and as soon as he did, all the politicians and media rushed in.

They all wanted to know what had happened, whether Gao Zhitao had prior knowledge of the incident, and had thus prepared police arrangements on the roads.

Gao Zhitao was somewhat unaccustomed to this sudden treatment and had people chase the media out.

Then he reported the entire incident to the higher-ups, but only gave a general account, without specific details, naturally omitting Xiang Yu’s involvement.

This wasn’t because he wanted to take credit but because he knew Xiang Yu preferred to stay out of the public eye.

One wave of visits from the higher-ups came after another, and the gifts in the hospital room piled up.

Tie Zhuzi occasionally dropped by; seeing so many people there, he quietly took the gifts away.

It wasn’t until the fifth day after the incident that Gao Zhitao’s room finally calmed down a bit.

Of course, "calm down a bit" meant that since the leaders from the higher departments had all come, only those on equal or lower levels were left, who were kept outside and couldn’t come in.

On the fifth day’s news, officials finally explained the front and back of the incident.

Of course, the official story differed somewhat from reality. The official narrative was that they had learned through undercover agents that a group of terrorists planned to attack the city, prompting a decision by the higher departments to monitor the entire city closely.

After receiving accurate information, they feigned relaxation and let them enter, ultimately successfully thwarting the event under the correct leadership from above.

Xiang Yu wasn’t interested in these news stories; he cared only about the people being protected and his brothers being safe, and that was enough for him.

On the sixth morning, Xiang Yu and several others visited Gao Zhitao’s room. At the moment, Gao Zhitao was idly hopping around the room.

Seeing him like this, Tie Zhuzi came up and punched him.

"Why are you hopping around like a rabbit if you’re good, why haven’t you been discharged yet? You’re wasting national resources." Tie Zhuzi grumbled and then grabbed a banana from the table to eat.

Gao Zhitao pulled a face and replied, "You don’t understand. These people are so annoying, coming to bother me every day. I’m just hiding here for some peace, but it’s really boring."

The few people chatted and laughed; it was lively. Then Gao Zhitao suddenly looked at Xiang Yu and asked, "Have you seen my grandfather recently?"

Xiang Yu shook his head.

Gao Zhitao sighed and nodded. He already knew what happened at the airport. Gao Mantang hadn’t come to visit him during these days, and he didn’t know how to comfort his grandfather.

"Don’t worry, your grandfather is strong and rugged, having survived the battlefield. He’ll be fine." Xiang Yu reassured him.

Gao Zhitao nodded without speaking.

While they were talking, Xiang Yu’s phone suddenly rang; it was a call from Hou Zhantian...
