Chapter 397: She’s Not Here, She’s in There Taking Part in the Competition

The mild breeze blew in the vast wilderness.

The Shooting Department members of these three military schools stood tall and straight, peering into the magnificent mountain forest before them. They were focused on the progress going on in there.

The competition had just started and right away someone from the National Defense University was eliminated. Commander Yang slapped off the mosquito on his palm.

The rules stipulated that soldiers were to stand straight and weren’t allowed to move.

Hence, this mosquito probably just had his fill with the blood of the many members standing behind, leading to its puffed-up body.

Before it could let out a pitiful cry, Commander Yang smacked it to death and caused it to explode into a handful of blood.

“We’re going to stand here for another two hours and feed the mosquitoes!”

Commander Yang said, sounding annoyed.

Next to him, Lu Yimei raised a brow but said nothing.

“What’s the big deal about feeding the mosquitoes for two hours? After all, it is a great opportunity for the members to make progress. As a commander, can’t you even endure this tiny bit of hardship?”

Commander Chen smiled benevolently like a Buddha.

Although he was only 22 that year, he sounded more mature than most people.

Commander Yang cast a sideways glance at him. This Haihe Commander. Since the two schools always placed number one and number two, the members under these schools frequently got into squabbles.

Even the commanders from these schools found each other an eyesore.

But everyone was only kidding around.

None of them were petty-minded.

Since National Defense University didn’t go off to a good start, Commander Yang didn’t wish to talk to him for now. Instead, he looked towards Lu Yimei. “Commander Lu, I heard your Shooting Department recently had a new member? Congratulations.”

Lu Yimei froze at the mention of her name, her brows instantly furrowing a little, before suddenly easing. “Got lucky this year. It’s someone who transferred from the department. But she’s a newbie after all. Don’t tell me she’s worthy of your attention, Commander Yang?”

Lu Yimei had seen Gu Qingjiu’s information. Hence, he knew that Gu Qingjiu was an incredibly talented shooter. However, Instructor Xiong had instructed her not to reveal Gu Qingjiu’s information.

Thus Lu Yimei naturally wouldn’t reveal it.

Commander Yang waved a hand and said with a smile, “Commander Lu, everyone is after all students. Don’t take the official tone with me. I’m not deliberately sounding you out, it’s just that I heard some news. Hence, just casually asking.”

Gu Qingjiu’s information was actually only passed on to the National Military University of China, but it wasn’t kept under wraps or anything; just look at that incident with Qin Huai when she first entered the school.

The other two schools’ Shooting Department also learned of some news because they were in the same department. With so many people in one school, who was going to pay attention if they didn’t belong to the same department?

Commander Yang was only casually asking out of boredom.

But he felt that something wasn’t quite right with Lu Yimei’s reaction.

It was difficult for someone to enter the Shooting Department. Just look at how only tens of people made it out of tens of thousands of them. Shooting required a high level of talent, and it was in fact even harder to find outstanding talents in these areas compared to, say, the computer science department. In the past, one had to wait for several months before the Shooting Department finished testing them and confirmed that they were qualified to enter. It was only after that they were extended an invitation.

This was why people found it so curious that the National Military University of China managed to recruit someone so early this year.

“Right, right, right, I wanted to ask about this too. Commander Lu, where’s that new member in your department?”

Seeing that even Commander Yang had spoken, Commander Chen joined in the conversation. He looked curiously at the members behind Lu Yimei.

Lu Yimei paused, before saying, “She’s not here, she’s in there taking part in the competition.”
