Chapter 350: Chapter 359: Begging for Mercy
Tonight, it was that kid Li Duoxiâs turn for duty, so letâs give him a taste of the latest version of the ghostly wails and wolf howls.
At the sentry booth, the cold wind whistled, blowing like a shrill whistle. Li Duoxi, dressed in a thick coat, wrapped himself up tightly.
âThird Squad Leader, Third Squad Leader,â a security guard on duty called out loudly from below.
âWhat is it?â
âThe Captain is looking for you.â
âWhat?â Li Duoxiâs foot slipped, nearly toppling over.
âThe Captainâs looking for you, heâs at the training field!â the security guard shouted.
âAlright, I got it!â Couldnât he just not go? The sister-in-law left, so why hasnât the Captain gone home? Frustrated desires?
Men without wives are too scary. We must get everyone together to devise a plan and make the Captain hurry up and get married.
Li Duoxi was utterly reluctant, but he had no choice but to go since the Captain called for him.
Xu Qigang wore only a fall outfit for the rescue team and was doing warm-ups. Seeing Li Duoxi wrapped up like a bear, he kicked him irritably.
âIs it that cold? Dressed like that!â
âCaptain, Iâm frail!â
âIs it kidney weakness or cowardice?â
Li Duoxi wanted to cry but had no tears, âCompared to you, Captain, I am weak, everything is weak!â
âEnough! Stop with the slick talk! Youâve gone soft without training for a while. If I pull you out and say youâre a squad leader of the War Wolf Rescue Team, itâs embarrassing for me.â
âCaptain⊠please have mercy!â
âContinue tomorrow night!â
âNo way! Letâs start now, right now.â If it continued tomorrow night, his life would be over.
So, following last nightâs ghostly wails and wolf howls, tonight saw an upgraded version.
Chen Yingjieâs dormitory was a bit far from the training field, so he couldnât hear it. But it was Han Yongchunâs turn for duty, and he knew it was the Third Squad Leader as soon as he heard the noise.
Tonight, it was the Third Squad Leaderâs turn for duty. As soon as he heard the noise, he immediately ran to knock on Chen Yingjieâs door.
âSquad Leader, big happy news.â
Chen Yingjie had not yet slept, his body aching, turning over in bed with pain that kept him awake. Hearing Han Yongchun knocking, he opened the door with a dark expression.
âWhat is it?â
âCaptain, CaptainâŠâ Han Yongchunâs eyes were smug and secretive, âTonight itâs the Third Squad Leaderâs turn. I just came from there, and the howling was miserable!â
âReally?â
âTrue, no mistake. If you donât believe me, we can go take a look.â
âDonât go!â Chen Yingjie, who followed Xu Qi from the Southern Border Rescue Field, knew his past all too clearly.
Now one-on-one was bearable, but going there would likely turn into three-on-one, which was simply seeking death!
âGo patrol quickly, and remember, avoid the training field, got it?â
âIs it that dangerous?â
Chen Yingjie showed a reminiscent smile, âHehehe⊠The Captain has been a bit too calm these past two years. Back in the Southern Border, he wouldâve knocked down a bunch overnight.â
Han Yongchunâs eyes widened, âThatâs considered calm?â The Living Yama could take a manâs life, and just now the Third Squad Leaderâs howling was pitiful!
âYes, very calm,â Chen Yingjie stressed the word âcalm.â
Li Duoxi lived close to the training field, and Xing Fang waited at home for her husband to return. Instead of waiting for the person, the sounds made their way back.
Crying for his dad and calling for his mom, she felt embarrassed for him. She almost wanted to go up and cover Li Duoxiâs mouth; after all, the Fourth Squad Leader wasnât crying as miserably as him last night. Couldnât he just endure it? Todayâs shouting might feel good, but tomorrow, heâd be the laughing stock when he stepped outside.
