Chapter 988 – Three Days of Vacation
”Senior Chen Han, why are you sitting outside alone?”
Lu Yu stepped out from the warm room, wrapped in heavy clothing, exhaled a hot breath, and couldn’t help but ask when he saw Chen Han sitting alone on the stairs.
Since Anta County was taken away by the Egyptian Nine Pillar God and returned by Zhou Ping, a new team house was supposed to be rebuilt for Team 332, but Chen Han did not want to leave this short building and refused, but all the heating supplies had been repaired, and it was no longer as unbearably cold as it was before.
The ghostly color in Chen Han’s eyes receded, flicking the ashes of his cigarette, “I’m waiting for a document.”
”Document? What document?”
Chen Han was silent for a moment, “Lu Yu, I may …… have to leave here.”
Lu Yu was stunned, a flash of complexity in his eyes, but he still smiled, “Senior Chen Han, you should have left here a long time ago.”
Chen Han looked at him in surprise.
”After coming back from the mists, I clearly felt that Senior Chen Han’s aura of you started to be different.” Lu Yu’s gaze looked into Chen Han’s eyes and
”Although I can’t perceive your exact realm, I can be certain that in these two years, senior you have arrived at a terrifying point that I can’t comprehend ……
Senior Chen Han, it would be too much of a pity for you to remain in this tiny Anta County, you should go and do more important things.”
Chen Han looked at Lu Yu in silence, and after a long time, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He walked down the stairs with his military coat on and flexed his fingers to knock Lu Yu’s forehead, the latter instantly covered his head and took two steps backward.
”Senior Chen Han! What are you hitting me for?”
”You kid, I haven’t even left yet, and you’re thinking of usurping the throne to become the captain?” Chen Han laughed.
”What’s so rare about a one-man captain.” Lu Yu spat out his tongue, “Let me be, I still don’t want to be it ……”
”A team member, sooner or later.” Chen Han said seriously, “You, too, will sooner or later become ‘Senior Lu Yu’ in their mouths.”
Lu Yu opened his mouth and still didn’t say anything.
Outside the Forest Ranger Bureau, a figure walked quickly against the wind and snow.
”Which one is Captain Chen?” The man held a package and shouted at the two.
Chen Han stepped away and walked in front of the figure, “It’s me.”
”Your documents.” The man handed the package to Chen Han, “Commander Zuo said that he wants you to move as soon as possible, preferably tonight.”
”…… I know.”
Chen Han walked back into the forest protection bureau, opened the package, swept his eyes over the document, and let out a long sigh.
”It seems that I really should leave …….”
”Senior Chen Han, you go.” Lu Yu spoke seriously, “I will guard Squad 332.”
Chen Han glanced at him with a complicated expression and put away the documents.
”Those rolled cigarettes in the drawer, I’ll take away a portion of them and leave the rest for you, save them.”
”Uh-huh.”
”Living alone, don’t turn on the heat too much, it’s a waste.”
”Okay.”
”When the newcomer arrives, act maturely, don’t disgrace our 332 Squad.”
”……”
Chen Han opened the door, a pair of boots stepped into the snow, drifting snowflakes fluttered around his military coat, he turned his head back, took one last look at this short building and Lu Yu, opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something else.
After a few moments, he shook his head and walked alone towards the wind and snow.
”Gone.”
Lu Yu stood at the door in silence, watching that military coat figure, gradually disappearing into the snow.
He slowly closed those unwilling eyes, took a deep breath, and bowed deeply to that back figure…….
Collective Training Camp.
Lin Qiye walked up to the high platform of the training ground and was about to say something when his expression suddenly froze.
Only to see the recruits under the high platform, staring at Lin Qiye on the stage in unison, their eyes glowing, like a group of avid fans who had seen their idol, with worship and yearning written all over their faces.
These fiery gazes made Lin Qiye a bit uncomfortable, and he suspiciously glanced at Baili Chubby and the others on the stage, who heatedly smiled at him and gave a thumbs up.
Lin Qiye: ……
”Next, I’m going to announce something.” Lin Qiye ignored the gazes for now and spoke calmly, “Starting tomorrow, you will have a three-day vacation.”
Upon hearing these words, the countless fiery eyes on the stage froze at the same time.
Vacation?
Vacation?!!!
”During this period, you guys can move freely within Shangjing City, and after the three days are over, you guys will undergo an unprecedented devil training.” Lin Qiye spoke indifferently, “Unsurprisingly, this will be your last vacation within the next few years ……
Enjoy yourselves.”
As Lin Qiye’s words fell, the recruits who were frozen on the stage finally came back to their senses and couldn’t help but cheer!
Four months of intense training had fatigued their bodies and minds to the limit, and they were never expecting that Lin Qiye would actually give them a vacation!
In other words, they could have a happy New Year?
”Long live Instructor Lin!”
”Instructor Lin! You’re my idol!”
”The [Night Curtain] squad is number one in the world!!!”
”……”
Lin Qiye looked at the cheering crowd under the stage, the corner of his mouth rose slightly as he stretched out his hand to signal the new students to be quiet and continued:
”You all have half an hour to go back to your dormitories and pack up your things, then come here to collect the temporary straight swords that are stocked in the warehouse, and then you can leave. …… Remember, don’t use your abilities in front of ordinary people.”
The freshmen’s cheers didn’t diminish in the slightest, but some of them, already keenly sensed that something was wrong.
”Receiving a knife? Why would you bring a knife on vacation?”
”…… I don’t know, maybe it’s because they want us to take the time to practice our knife skills while on vacation?”
”What the hell is that about not using your abilities in front of normal people? Why do I get the feeling that something will go wrong on this vacation?”
”Hiss, I also have a bad feeling ……”
”You guys are overthinking it, this is Shangjing, with Squad 006 guarding it, what could go wrong?”
”Also.”
”……”
After the new students were dismissed, they flew back to their dormitories to pack up their things, then they boarded the bus and left the training camp.
”Seven Nights, why did you let them carry swords?”
After the new recruits left, An Qingyu and the others walked over to Lin Qiye’s side and asked in confusion.
”The odds are that it won’t be used, it’s just in case.” Lin Qiye recalled what Yuan Gang had just told him and shrugged, “The current Shangjing is perhaps the most dangerous time in the last ten years……. Perhaps, it is also the safest time.”
The crowd was still at a loss.
”Let’s go, I’ll slowly tell you guys on the way.” Lin Qiye smiled and patted their shoulders.
”On the way? Where are we going?”
”To Squad 006’s residence.” Lin Qiye added.
”To dilly-dally.”
