Chapter 002: Conscription

This time, Bao Qi was truly anxious, pulling at the young soldier in the guard room and shouting: "Hey, where on earth have you hidden the person? If you don't tell me soon, I will call the police!"

R County's only two-star hotel is the Rongxin Hotel

Oh my goodness

The situation before her nearly caused her to burst a blood vessel, and her eyes were about to pop out.

As his gaze narrowed, the man coldly glared at her, his powerful aura stirring the surrounding turbulent air and cold atmosphere

After the loud clang of the large iron gate behind her, she decided to search for it regardless of whether it was there or not. If all else failed, her last resort would be to call the police.

She did not expect that this guy was actually eaten by someone

City C, also known as the Brocade City, derives its name from Du Fu's phrase "the flowers are heavy in the Brocade Official City." Of course, it is not Du Fu that it is most famous for, but rather the catastrophic earthquake that shocked the world, resulting in hundreds of thousands of casualties

Looking at Yao Wang's excessively beautiful face, Bao Qi pouted and said: "What is there to be shy about? I've seen you in your birthday suit before. Little green-haired girl, you have a birthmark the size of a bowl on your backside"

Sister Bao! Yao Wang's face turned as red as a pig's liver; he glanced at her and quickly changed the subject: "Well, I heard that those with scars or birthmarks on their bodies cannot pass the physical examination... I..."

Raising her eyebrows, Bao Qi felt helpless

How strange

She wants to earn more money and travel further

He said that the most elite Red Thorn Special Forces of the entire army are selecting new recruits for the first time in the county

No wonder he didn't hear just now; it turns out he was taking a shower

Yao Wang is the only boy in the village who can be considered her friend, two months younger than her. He is the eldest son of Yao Xiezi's family at the west end of the village, and also a child who is neither loved by his father nor cared for by his mother. People in the village say that he was bought by Yao Xiezi from outside, as he is so handsome and bears no resemblance to Yao Xiezi at all

Although Yao Wang is quite dull, a living person has gone missing just like that, how is she supposed to explain it? Searching left and right, until the sun in the sky was replaced by the moon, and the Ministry of National Defense was about to close, she still did not see anyone

Each party takes what it needs from the transaction, and she never concedes any loss

There is no response inside

Liunian Village, located in the southwestern hub City C

The epicenter of the earthquake is precisely in the impoverished and remote Liunian Village

After a brief contraction of his gaze, the man abruptly snatched the towel beside him, tidying up the situation caused by his sudden urge, resembling a beast that had been touched on its antennae

Are you foolish! When someone asks you, just say that the scar was left from saving people during the earthquake! The birthmark is something you were born with; who could possibly eat you?

"Sister Bao..." Yao Wang leaned down and whispered in her ear

The handsome young boy in front of me has dark skin, yet his features are exquisitely beautiful

Bao Qi finally managed to shift her gaze from him to his face

The only thing she cares about is money

She inquired at the front desk, and oh, what a lively scene it was. In the hotel, there were three units of soldiers, one from the Navy, one from the Army, and one from the Special Forces. After much flattery and sweet talk, she finally managed to obtain the room number of the Special Forces.

She knocked again, but there was still no response

The rural environment not only did not hinder her growth into a graceful young woman, but also nurtured her to be as slippery and clever as a loach. The small village after the earthquake, with its daylilies still thriving, has historically become a tourist destination.

She awkwardly touched her nose, and her big, dark eyes turned innocently.

Three years after the earthquake, Bao Qi is 18 years old

Recruitment Office of the R County People's Armed Forces Department

The little warrior's three parts push and seven parts send the plague god's attentiveness as she was escorted out the door

Did you not finish urinating? Then continue, I will wait for you to finish before asking.

Three words, icy and stinging

Then, the splendidly chaotic wind became disordered

It is not that I am immobile, but rather that I am stunned, my mind completely muddled

Isn't that asking for Bao Qi's life?

Thus, she took a few quick steps and walked in without much thought, pushing the door open with a single motion

Finally, he hung his head in frustration and said: "Sister Bao, I have no one and no money, it seems I cannot become a soldier."

Uncertain whether the person is speaking to her, but she is eager to connect with someone; as long as someone engages, she does not care about much else

Alright, Sister Bao...

He said that he has just returned from the county's armed forces department

Because he did not walk out of the examination room until the sun had set

Profound, indifferent, aloof.

That flower is the only notable local specialty in the village—the wild rose covered in sharp thorns

Bao Qi loves money, needs money, and desires money to the point of being tiresome

Absolutely! Perfect! Instant kill!

His already fair complexion turned redder and redder under the autumn sunlight, as he faced her lion-like reprimand.

What? Oh my! Looking at his excited eyes that resembled a dog's, Bao Qi was at a loss for words. This child had no other hobbies but was infatuated with shooting, spending all his pocket money at the stall in town where one could shoot air guns at balloons.

Hurry and bring it in

Who allowed you to come in, leave!

What should I take in? Why the hurry?

Upon hearing this typical name reminiscent of the Dream of the Red Chamber, Bao Qi couldn't help but twitch her lips. She turned around, hands on her hips, furrowing her brows as she shouted: "Hey! How many times do I have to say it? Don't call me Sister Bao, do you believe I will hit you?"

Just as the saying goes, time waits for no one

Please forgive her, this is the only adjective she can think of at the moment. Um! Also, very robust. And she herself feels quite awkward. ... Because, the person is currently holding that object to urinate, trickling towards the broad and smooth avenue...

After a while, Bao Qi gritted his teeth and patted Yao Wang on the shoulder

Tsk tsk tsk

Get out!

In her childhood, after watching the living expenses sent from Kyoto disappear entirely into her uncle's pocket, she understood that only money is the warmest thing in the world

Outside the medical examination room, a long line of people is forming, indicating that people's political awareness has risen in these times, with more aspiring youths dedicated to national defense. However, what Baoyi is currently more concerned about is another matter... A large group of naked men is queuing for a full-body check, performing stretches, squats, splits, and jumps

Sister Bao, are you here?

Sigh

Well, she wanted to escape, but her feet have taken root.

I heard that those who pass the medical examination will receive 5,000, while those who do not will have to pay more... However, I, I can't even afford the experience fee

Unlike her, Yao Wang's goal is to become an excellent special forces sniper

In her leisure time, Bao Qi would tread upon the remnants of bricks and walls that had buried the bones of the deceased, embellishing the earthquake love stories for those who had come from afar to commemorate the departed and to 'tour' the post-quake scenery. Then, she would smile as she accepted varying amounts of cash from their hands

Go out

Yao Wang blushed

However, Baoci is not the least bit concerned about these matters

In the end, she would always attentively present a bouquet of wildflowers

Need money

What kind of grand occasion will that be

Which bastard is responsible for the unspoken rules

I truly do not know. How about you go check the hotel where the military unit is staying

I am outraged! Defending the country while also having to pay out of my own pocket

Excuse me, have you finished urinating? May I ask you something?

At the door, she politely knocked three times

Speak, what is the matter?

With a slight raise of her eyebrow, she exerted force with her hand, and the door surprisingly creaked open with a sound. Inside the room, it was immediately clear that there was no one present. Just as she was about to retreat and change rooms, suddenly, a voice with a strong penetrating quality in a Beijing accent came from within, the tone was quite pleasant, but it was chillingly cold.

A tall and robust man stands completely naked, his eight well-defined muscles are fit yet not excessive, neither too much nor too little, each part of his physique is perfectly proportioned. His skin, glistening with droplets of water, is strong and powerful, presenting a majestic appearance

The features crafted through the sincere collaboration of ghosts and spirits surpass even those of movie stars, and even when displaying a cold demeanor that suggests a predatory nature, casting a chilling glance at her, they remain unmatched in their sensuality

Yao Meiren, pay close attention for me, and report back in detail later... Otherwise, the money will be counted as your interest

However, the individuals from the Ministry of National Defense and the Recruitment Office all stammered and spoke evasively, claiming they had never seen this person

She speculated whether that fellow Yao Wang had been specially summoned by the special forces

It was his turn. Bao Qi waved and watched him enter the examination room
