Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xiao Gao was lucky. After waiting for a while, he saw Lu Xingzhi coming out of the tent.
“Colonel, you’re leaving?” Xiao Gao quickly ran toward Lu Xingzhi.
Lu Xingzhi stood there and looked at Xiao Gao. He raised his eyebrows and said, in a low voice, “Yes.”
“What are you going to do, Colonel?” Xiao Gao asked with a smile.
“Toilet,” Lu Xingzhi said concisely. He stood there and looked at Little Gao. A few seconds later, he asked, “You look like a thief. What are you planning?”
Xiao Gao’s scalp was numb from Lu Xingzhi’s gaze. He thought, ‘Is it that obvious?’
Xiao Gao gulped and continued to giggle foolishly. “How can I be a Colonel? I can’t even steal a sweet potato in the wilderness. How can I be a thief? Aren’t you going to the toilet? Number one or number two? Are you going alone? Do you want me to go with you?”
Lu Xingzhi snorted. “Are you waiting here for me? What, are you comparing sizes with me? Don’t follow me. I’m afraid you’ll get a shock. ”
Lu Xingzhi glared at the stunned Xiao Gao before striding away.
After Lu Xingzhi had gone far away, Xiao Gao snapped back to his senses and whispered, “Colonel, please don’t look down on me! I’m very talented.”
Then, Xiao Gao confirmed that Lu Xingzhi had gone far away before quickly jumping into Lu Xingzhi’s tent. The tent did not have any lights, not even candles. The only light they had was the light from a flashlight. However, Xiao Gao, who had a guilty conscience, would not turn on the flashlight. He could only find the metal box in the dark.
Lu Xingzhi’s tent was the same as everyone else’s. There was nothing more than a bed and a bag. In the end, Xiao Gao took a metal box from under the pillow.
“It really is the Colonel’s treasure. He actually hid it under the pillow!” Xiao Gao opened the box and touched the things inside. The tent was dark. He touched something that felt like paper, not like a photo. He muttered again, “That group of people will not be able to see the Colonel’s wife’s photo. The Colonel is really weird.”
Xiao Gao closed the box and quickly ran to the door. Just as he felt pleased that he did not need to search for three meals a day, he stepped out of Lu Xingzhi’s tent. A sudden force kicked him back. He fell back onto Lu Xingzhi’s quilt with a plop, clutching his stomach. He was howling in pain.
“I thought you had a sneaky look on your face.”
The person who had walked away walked in through the door. He slowly walked out of the darkness and into Xiao Gao’s line of sight.
He stood at the door in the faint moonlight, his hands in his pockets. There was a mischievous smile on his cold face. One of his slender legs was steadily tapping the ground. His heel was slightly raised. Obviously, it was that foot that had kicked Xiao Gao.
“Colonel, didn’t you go to the toilet?”
Xiao Gao suddenly had a thought in his mind. ‘It’s over. It’s over. He caught me on the spot. I’ll die tomorrow! It’s over! It’s over!’
“It’s not as important as catching the thief. One can wait, the other can’t wait,” Lu Xingzhi replied as he walked into the tent. When he saw the metal box in Xiao Gao’s hand, his expression changed.. He quickly s.n.a.t.c.hed the box back. He asked darkly, “How did you get so brave today?”
