“A soldier that doesn’t want to be a commander isn’t a good soldier. You must remember that our goal isn’t just to be a soldier. We need to become a soldier that can fight. You need to know how to fight and how to command your soldiers in a battle.”
Ye Jian’s entire body was shaking. She stared intently at him and looked at his thin lips moving as he spoke. She said, “I want to drink some water. I need to drink.” She was very thirsty, so thirsty that she felt agitated.
She rushed to the coffee table and covered the teacup that had a lid with her hand. She calmed her fingers that were trembling and grabbed the glass of water leftover from the night before. She gulped the cold water down in one mouth and let the coldness of the water suppress the panic that the problems gave her.
She never thought of commanding other soldiers during a battle. She only knew that they were in extreme danger!
Also, there was still K7. Before they knew whether K7 had escaped from danger, the mission couldn’t end. They wouldn’t forsake their comrade so the mission would still continue!
The cold water seemed to have suppressed the panic in her heart. Ye Jian took a deep breath and turned around. She looked at Xia Jinyuan with a harsh gaze. “Just now, you said that K7 contacted G3 but he didn’t send his coordinates. That is why you suspect that K7 purposely contacted you yesterday to show that he was safe and make you feel at ease. He had probably decided to sacrifice himself so that you won’t go and look for him!”
The relationship between comrades could be as strong as me dying to let you survive. If K7 was really caught, she felt that he would definitely have the thought of sacrificing himself to prevent his comrades from coming back to save him!
K7’s skinny but handsome face flashed past her mind. He didn’t talk much but he was a young soldier whose every phrase was a gem. She tightened her grip and said in a voice full of viciousness. “After completing the mission in the Southern Province, go back to look for K7. This is something we must do. I support your decision to go back.”
“Are there any other comrades? Do they need to go back too? However, all of you are illegal mercenaries now. What about weapons? Where will you guys get your weapons? Hou Zi can at most provide guns for you. If you want to save someone, you need to prepare more powerful weapons like grenades. You have to consider this too.”
“Since G3 is K7’s person to contact, where is he now?”
Ye Jian didn’t just have one question, they came continuously. Each question was sharper than the last. “In China, you can still look for Hou Zi. Who will you look for when you’re overseas? What will you do once you don’t have enough weapons? Go to the black market?”
Xia Jinyuan got stabbed by her sharp questions until his nerves started twitching. As expected of a comrade that once executed missions with him. Her questions came continuously and every single one of them was on point.
He thought for a moment and replied earnestly, “G3 is rushing to the Southern Province. He’s the only person who knows clearly what happened to K7. He’s part of this mission too. At the same time, G3 also needs weapons. Once he reaches the Southern Province, we will take Hou Zi’s best weapons with us.”
“Even if Hou Zi has weapons, is it enough? Our country bans people from collecting weapons privately. That’s illegal. How many weapons does Hou Zi have?” Ye Jian kept probing but she was still relatively calmer. She didn’t lose her cool.
Ye Jian was someone who would get calmer the more agitated she was. The calmer she was, the more she understood that this wasn’t a small matter.
The news Xia Jinyuan brought back was too astonishing. She didn’t participate in his mission before so even though she had a calm personality, she still appeared a little panicky.
