Chapter 192: Chapter 193: The Last One

“What went wrong?” Kong Jie wished he could kick them; they were the Third Rescue Team, on home ground, leading the most powerful communication group. Yet they had lost two rounds in a row, and in the final round, those damn kids even dared to be counterproductive.

He was absolutely furious.

“I…I did everything wrong!”

“If you can’t shout, just shut up!”

After Kong Jie finished scolding, his comrades shouted in unison, “Go Communications, go Communications, go Communications!”

“Communications first, Communications first, Communications first!”

Chen Yingjie was so angry he almost jumped up, “This Kong Erleizi is too despicable, daring to pull this trick. No, I must turn the tables.”

Xu Qigang didn’t actually care about these things; he just saw these competitions as a game among the girls.

So when he heard that people from the Third Rescue Team were biased, he didn’t mind.

He might not have cared, but Chen Yingjie wouldn’t let it go. He quietly slipped away from the crowd, heading toward where the comrades from the Third Rescue Team were standing. A few minutes later, it had quieted down over there, and you could faintly hear the sound of fists colliding.

Running at the forefront, the first person to appear was Lu Dabao. When she successfully crossed the finish line, Wei Xian’s face turned extremely ugly, her hands clenched tightly into fists.

Yang Wenying, from afar, had already noticed the thin, small figure of Dabao, and seeing her take first place didn’t surprise her.

The overall quality of the General Union Dance Troupe was indeed a weak point; they had been first in the previous two rounds, and she hadn’t expected a clean sweep.

“Comrades, let’s rest here for a while.” Having won first place amidst the cheering, Lu Dabao walked aside to the resting area to wait.

She looked around a bit bewildered, and as time passed, more and more confusion appeared on her face. Following her were Zhu Yu and teams of ten or twenty increasingly crossing the finish line.

In that time, not one person from the General Union Dance Troupe appeared.

She went from a blank face to utterly mystified, her bright eyes spinning around. She felt more and more uncomfortable standing there.

“Humph! What’s the use of coming in first? None of your General Union Dance Troupe have arrived.”

“That’s right! Our people are almost all here, and yours are still behind!”

More and more people gathered at the main entrance, gradually forming up in the same formation as before the start.

A drill instructor and a squad leader from the Third Rescue Team personally came to count the participants.

“Communications complete.”

“Main Hospital still missing two.”

“Union report still missing one.”

“Administrative branch still missing three.”

“Confidential office complete.”

“Secretary office complete.”

“Inspection Department still missing four.”

“…”

With the roll call loudly announced, everyone present could hear clearly. Wei Xian finally showed a relieved smile, her eyes and brows excited. She could finally show her superiority and harshly outdo Yang Wenying.

“See, being formidable for a moment isn’t truly formidable. Individual strength isn’t really strength. Only team strength is true strength. Our rescue team wins by the power of the people; we don’t do individual heroism.”

Wei Xian’s voice was loud, clear to everyone around. Since the General Union Dance Troupe had stolen the show in the previous two competitions, everyone laughed when they saw Yang Wenying at a disadvantage.

“Such nonsense!” Yang Wenying snorted, her expression unchanged, though she was actually anxious inside. She knew that overall strength and stamina really weren’t as good as the other team’s. But Chen Huaying and Liu Yilan were both promising talents.
