Chapter 1071 We Really Need Your Participation
Seeing no movement from the body lying in the fern bushes, aside from it twitching twice, with the cold gleam surfacing on his eyes, the Scout holstered his assault rifle. He turned towards Ye Jian1 and said: “If you’re going to move forward, I’m afraid you’ll have to change your route. Either that or take a break here, we have a post ahead.”
She’d be taking a very long detour if she changed paths. While resting here would be a waste of time, neither of those options were plans Ye Jian had in mind. After pondering for a moment, she asked: “I need to arrive at Laos’ border; this military route is the path that we have planned and designated. I need to make my way there before the designated time.”
“Can you contact Captain Liu and tell him that I will be passing by your post?”
Simultaneously, the Scout’s gaze landed on the Type 88 sniper rifle in Ye Jian’s hands. His eyes glowed dimly.
A sniper, the female soldier in front of him, was a sniper? They were assigned two snipers, but it was best if they could get another sniper to one other position after reconnaissance. What if… this female soldier in front of him agrees to it? No, that can’t do. Even if the female soldier agrees to it, we’ll have to receive approval from the Command Center.
The Scout shook his head and said: “I can’t promise you that. If you need to wrap around our military post, Captain Liu can speak with you. Can you tell me your identification number and your name? I’m afraid we’ll have to verify your identity when we return.”
Talking with Captain Liu of the border police was a way of solving her predicament, so Ye Jian told him her name without any hesitation. “You can contact my regiment commander directly; my name is enough to verify my identity, as for my ID number, I’m very sorry, I’m not in a position to tell you.”
She didn’t have a military ID number yet, so she can only verify herself with her name.
Every soldier had their own military ID number. It was similar to civilians’ ID numbers, where all of them were unique and non-repeating. Understanding that, the Scout did not pursue the topic.
After cleaning up the scene, the two of them departed immediately.
After walking less than five kilometers, the Scout motioned for Ye Jian to wait in hiding. He needed to leave alone to request Captain Liu’s presence.
Even if there was nothing wrong with Ye Jian’s identity, erring on the side of caution, the Scout did not bring her to the command center. Instead, he brought her within the surveillance range of the border police,… just in case.
Ye Jian had already noticed several eyes on her, but she didn’t find that surprising. They must be on high alert while carrying out a mission.
“The brother who helped us last night… was a female soldier?” Captain Liu exclaimed with surprise: “Have you confirmed her identity?”
It was indeed a female soldier? A female soldier on a wilderness survival training? He was never told a female soldier had a wilderness survival training alone, furthermore, in a place as dangerous as this one!
The Scout nodded his head, “I did, there aren’t any problems. She’s now at our surveillance range while waiting for Captain Liu to see her. She needs to finish her wilderness march training within a certain amount of time.” Finishing that, his eyes glowed, he whispered: “There’s also good news, Captain Liu. She’s a sniper.”
“A sniper? With a ready-made sniper rifle?” Light was even emitting from Captain Liu’s eyes.
“It’s also a Type 88 sniper rifle, a rare find! Captain Liu, should we talk with her?”
With eyes emitting light, Captain Liu suppressed his unexpected surprise of acquiring a great asset. He lowered his voice: “Let’s contact HQ first; it’ll be easier for us after HQ approves. And we’ll also ask HQ to verify her identity once more. It’s best to be safe; it’s best to be safe.”
They just so happen to lack one more sniper, and a sniper appeared so suddenly… that’s too coincidental.
“Ye Jian? Are you certain the female soldier’s name is Ye Jian?” The voice coming from the other end of the radio seemed more surprised than Captain Liu when he heard the news. The person followed up with: “Very fair skin, good combat and shooting skills, a face with very recognizable features?”
