"...I... I know..." Mrs. Savin said as she shakily nodded at Li Qingming, "but... he said if he died... I should lead the Advance Group to keep moving forward... what can I do... I can't do anything... just have to... just have to believe that Savin can be resurrected... let all comrades believe... maybe he really can come back to life... there's nothing in the world with a zero probability..."
