Chapter 567: Layout of the Plan!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The speed the new recruits tidied up the Sting Special forces, stunned the captain on duty along with his team members. Were these recruits really soldiers who just joined the division? They were even more organized than themselves the veterans.
The captain on guard stared at the cool young man sitting at the very front of the crowd. He was guessing who could this young man be. Right at that moment, as though the young man had sensed something and shot a sharp look to the captain on duty. The look was like a frost arrow piercing through the captain’s heart consuming it with an icy feeling.
However, it was also this icy glare that woke up the stunned captain on guard. He immediately ordered his subordinates, “Immediately provide medical attention.”
The Sting Special Forces had lost all of their members. They were all sprawled on the floor, some were even still able to groan weakly. However, most of them were lying on the ground lifelessly. This scene made the captain on duty become surprised and terrified at the same time. He only hoped that these new recruits held back, otherwise someone would have died. Even if these recruits had many reasons to hurt these people, the special forces wouldn’t just let it slide if one of them would have died.
The members heard the order and immediately rushed forward to check on the conditions of the members from the Sting Special Forces who were lying on the ground.
The captain on duty originally worried that these new recruits would stop them from giving medical attention. He didn’t think that these ruthless new recruits from the moments ago were now sitting on side in an orderly fas.h.i.+on and staring coldly at them while they gave medical attention to the Sting Special Forces. This scene made the captain on duty almost believe that the cruel and ruthless image from before was all an illusion…
The captain on duty cleared his head of all the chaotic thoughts. He ran beside Lian Shaojing and checked his body in detail. He discovered that every muscle in Lian Shaojing’s body had been damaged, allowing blood to flow out of his wounds, dyeing his whole body red. However, although the wounds seemed to be severe, in reality, his life wasn’t threatened by these injuries. Of course, if the blood wasn’t stopped immediately and continued to bleed through, it would eventually become life threatening.
At that moment, his team members had reported the conditions of the other members from the Sting Special Forces to him. These new recruits knew what they were doing and all left them with some life still in those who laid on the ground. As for how long it would take for a complete recovery, that wasn’t clear.
The captain on duty heard this and instantly let out a sigh of relief. As long as no one died, no matter how b.l.o.o.d.y battles among soldiers in the divisions got, the higher-ups would just brushed it off like nothing happened. In order to develop the soldiers’ killing intent and will to fight, these types of fights between teams were allowed. This was also why Sting could be so arrogant and attack new recruits. Unfortunately for them, they had gone up against a brick wall this time. They didn’t bullied anyone and instead were beaten down. It was just as those who do bad deeds will eventually have karma to bite them in the a.s.s.
The captain on duty had feelings of schadenfreude on the matter. However he still quickly contacted the s.p.a.ceport to ask for many ambulances to be sent to their location. After around a minute, they heard the sirens of the ambulances, the emergency response by the s.p.a.ceport was very timely. Not long after, everyone from Sting were put on stretchers and taken into their respective ambulances. They wanted to send them to the military division’s hospital as fast as possible.
Right at that moment, a cool handsome young man walked through the door while rubbing his stomach. As he walked in, he looked at the ambulances behind him slyly. He guessed that some people were very unlucky and were sent to the hospital at this time…
“Out of the way, out of the way!” Two paramedics saw that their path was randomly blocked by this young man that had just appeared and immediately shouted at him. They were holding a stretcher with an injured individual. In order to give him emergency medical attention, they ran with all of their might to the ambulance and it was impossible for them to slow down.
That young man reacted quickly and put his entire body against the metal door. He was like a gecko and managed to let those two paramedics move past him.
Once the stretcher moved past him, the young man took in a cold breath of air. He immediately rubbed his b.u.t.tocks. It turned out that the stretcher had brushed past his b.u.t.t cheeks. He felt that his b.u.t.t had definitely been bruised.
“Sh*t, I just went to the bathroom, why does it seem like the entire world had changed after I came out?” the cool young man said in dismay as he rubbed his left b.u.t.t cheek.
He saw that there was a soldier directing the paramedics to move the injured closer to the door. He walked up to him and saw that he was no longer busy and asked, “Officer, what happened here?”
“New recruit?” that soldier said, looked at the young man’s uniform.
The young man nodded. That soldier sighed and said, “Just now, the new recruits and the Sting Special Forces had a fight.”
“Sting Special Forces?” the young man said stunned. Who were fearless enough to actually fight with Sting? Even if they were always arrogant, no one would dare to challenge a battle team from the special forces. Of course, if the challengers had Boss Lan as their backup, it would be doable…
Boss Lan? The young man realized something and said it out loud, “Don’t tell me Sting lost.”
The soldier sighed again. Although he didn’t answer, his expression already made it clear to the young man.That those who lost were Sting members. The soldier pointed at Ling Lan and her group’s direction and said, “It’s that group of people. The leader’s too strong and took out the captain of Sting with just one snap of his fingers.”
The young man held his head, cried out in agony and squatted down. This odd behavior terrified the soldier. Could it be that this new recruit had mental issues?
The young man wailed, full of regret, “I just went to the bathroom. I just went to the bathroom. I just…”
The young man’s cries made everyone in the atrium turned their attention to him. Then a cold voice rang “Li Yingjie, you’re not going to return to your team?” Lin Zhong-qing glared at the person that held his head while squatting on the ground. He was already so late and yet he still went around looking at scenery. It seemed that Lin Zhong-qing needed to tell the Boss that this Li Yingjie should not be entrusted with important missions. Someone who was not disciplined like him would easily miss important details.
“Captain, here!” Li Yingjie’s battle team’s team members saw their captain had arrived and instantly called out to him. The members all had faces of excitement from the group fight they just had. Unfortunately their captain wasn’t there, otherwise their captain would be overjoyed. Their captain loved group fights and steam rolling his opponents with a huge advantage.
Li Yingjie heard this and instantly stood up. His face was full of displeasure. As he walked over, he grabbed a chair that wasn’t broken and got beside his team members. He kicked all of them. His team members knew what it meant and squeezed to the best of their ability to make s.p.a.ce for their captain.
“Bam!” Li Yingjie slammed the chair down, the four chair legs were stuck onto the ground and a few cracks appeared on the ground. The eyes of the soldier that spoke to Li Yingjie and focused on him all this time, narrowed his eyes. This seemingly clumsy individual was actually a Qi-Jin expert. Just how many demons came from the First Men’s Military Academy this year? The soldier looked at these energetic new recruits and had a feeling that the weather in the 23rd Division was about to change.
The captain on duty sent every injured person onto an ambulance. He watched as the ambulances left and then returned to where Ling Lan was afterwards. He thought for a second and then said, “New..recruit, I need to truthfully report the condition of the Sting Special Forces and captain Lian Shaojing.”
These words by the captain on duty was actually to remind Ling Lan that this situation had only just begun and did not end just yet.
The captain on guard knew very clearly that the special forces always protected their own. Even if it was Sting’s and Lian Shaojing’s mistake, the special forces would still send someone to teach this cool young man a lesson in order to protect the special forces’ dignity. Moreover, those who would make a move would not be subst.i.tute captains and instead be real official captains. These captains were all half or full Domain experts…
Ling Lan narrowed her eyes. Of course she knew that the situation wasn’t that simple. She thought for a moment then said, “That’s true. After all I am also severely injured and have to miss three months of new recruit training. Senior officer sir, you shouldn’t leave out this information.”
After Ling Lan said this, everyone from the First Men’s Military Academy had an odd expression on their faces. Some people couldn’t even control their bodies and almost fell to the floor.
“Boss, were you preparing to push all the blame onto Sting? That’s really awesome.” Everyone in the First Men’s Military Academy thought in their minds.
Gao Jinyun’s reaction was very quick and immediately continued, “Yes, Sting attacked us, as an innocent new recruit. I have also been injured.”
In that moment, everyone understood and spoke one after another, “Me too!”
“Ah, I have trouble breathing. I’m definitely injured.”
“My chest hurts a lot. I definitely have internal injuries.”
…
Each and every one of the people from First Men’s Military Academy were speaking about their injuries. The captain on duty saw that everyone who spoke out and said that they were injured all had rosy colors on their faces and was full of energy… “Man, if you guys want to pretend to be injured, at least make it more believable. The way you guys are currently pretending is so shameless and pompous right? Do you guys really think that we will help you?” thought the captain on duty.
“Alright, as the department responsible for the location where the tragedy had occurred, we had let you guys do underhanded things freely. I have really fallen into your complete control.” thought the captain on duty and sighed. Now, he was an accomplice with the new recruits of the First Men’s Military Academy in this situation. In order for everyone’s future days in the division to be more easygoing and not let the specials forces get any dirt on anyone then be taught a lesson by them, the captain on duty must report to the higher-ups a reason why the new recruits and the s.p.a.ceport was not at fault in the situation.
He thought for a bit and discovered that reporting it like this was useless. He reminded Ling Lan, “If I don’t have the proof of injuries from the physicians in our division’s hospital, even if I report to the higher-ups, it still wouldn’t count.”
Hearing this, Ling Lan lifted her right arm and turned on the virtual screen on her communicator. She inputted a string of numbers. Immediately, a charming and handsome young man appeared on the screen.
“s.h.i.+yu, make proofs of light and severe injuries for all 232 people in our mecha clan. Especially for me, make a proof that I am almost on my deathbed.” Ling Lan glanced at those in the First Co-ed Military Academy for a second then added, “Also for the First Co-ed Military Academy as well. I will let Lin Zhong-qing send you the list.”
“Roger captain.” Hearing this, Li s.h.i.+yu wasn’t surprised, only just raised his brows and complied without any expression of difficulty in completing the task. The present Li s.h.i.+yu had already possessed the qualifications to provide proof of injury forms a long time ago. Even if it was to make fake ones, he still had confidence to make it work.
The captain on duty’s expression changed slightly as he saw Li s.h.i.+yu’s shadow. He didn’t think that the newest demon doctor from the 23rd Division’s hospital, Li s.h.i.+yu who was respected by lower-ranking soldiers, was actually in the same team as this cool young man.
He was relieved. He also pitied Lian Shaojing, who was now sent to the hospital while being in a coma. He knew clearly that this time, Li s.h.i.+yu would definitely not help in treating captain Lian Shaojing. Without the demon doctor’s treatment, Lian Shaojing would definitely have to stay in the healing pods to treat his wounds for at least six months to a year or even more… Sting originally had high hopes in becoming an official battle team, but now, it seemed like they would miss the chance because of this incident.
The captain on duty now began to fear Ling Lan. Before this cool young man severely injured Lian Shaojing, he had already begun to plot. He never planned to give Lian Shaojing a chance to get back at him. As long as Li s.h.i.+yu wrote out these proofs being severely injured, even if the special forces wanted to help, they wouldn’t be able to.
It should be known on paper, that these guys counterattacked with all their might when they felt very threatened and then both sides suffered great losses. Even on the proof of injury forms, this cool young man’s injuries were even more severe and was close to his deathbed. On the surface, the special forces was favorable. If they made a move to teach the new recruits a lesson, then it would be considered going overboard. It was possible that the other departments of the division wouldn’t agree either.
This way, although the special forces knew that there was underhanded activities, they would still have to swallow the lost down their throats. Just a simple injury form would make Lian Shaojing and the others unable to do anything. If they wanted to take revenge in the future, they would only be able to do it discreetly and not in public.
However, the captain on duty still reminded, “The special forces may send other physicians to do secondary check-ups…” What he meant was that this plan wasn’t completely foolproof. If the special forces refused to let go of the situation and actually sent a military doctor, they would immediately be exposed since they were all alive and well.
Ling Lan raised a brow and said, “Didn’t Li s.h.i.+yu invent many different medicinal agents that had unknown effects?”
Hearing this, the captain on duty gave up on his point. He had forgotten why the demon doctor was given that name. It was because he would randomly take out a medicinal agent every time. The effect of the treatment and recovery speed had never been known or understood by others.
Even if the special forces wanted to ask for a new physician to do a second check-up, it would still require some time. These new recruits could definitely use Li s.h.i.+yu’s super strong medicinal agents for treatment in order to explain why their injuries seemed to have healed in a short period of time. In short, it was indeed very difficult for the special forces to get any dirt on these new recruits.
“There still recordings!” the captain on duty said weakly. There were surveillance cameras in every corner of the s.p.a.ceport. If they got the recordings, then the new recruits would be in trouble right?
“Go get the surveillance recordings. There might be a pleasant surprise waiting for you,” Ling Lan said calmly.
The captain on duty was stunned. He remembered that the First Men’s Military Academy was originally a specialized place for developing hackers. It was normal if there was an expert hacker among these cadets.
The captain on duty originally wanted to use the surveillance recordings to hold down the arrogance of the new recruits. He wanted to tell them that even if they made the perfect plan, without him and his team’s cooperation, once the recordings were publicized, they would lose everything. He didn’t think that the new recruits didn’t forget about this part. Maybe in the beginning of the fight, these new recruits had already hacked into the surveillance equipment in this area.
The captain on duty quietly said, “You monsters.” Then he said, “Since you already have plans, then I will ‘truthfully’ report this incident.”
“The future of these new recruits knows no bounds. If I can be in good relations with them now, then perhaps there would be benefits in the future that I can’t foresee right now,” thought the captain on duty. Of course, even if there weren’t any benefits, he was happy to help them after seeing them teaching Sting, led by Lian Shaojing, a lesson. In reality, Sting was always making trouble in the s.p.a.ceport. Not only was he annoyed but even the commander of the s.p.a.ceport was getting annoyed and as luck would have it, the captain on duty was the commander’s confidant. This was also why he dared to cooperate with these new recruits. The recordings weren’t an issue to begin with.
“Thank you!” Ling Lan stood up and saluted the captain on duty. The captain on duty clearly felt the sincerity between the cold glare. He felt warm inside and felt it was very worth it that he had helped such a polite and disciplined child.
Very quickly, the captain left with his team members and went towards the commander to report this incident. The staff members who had already arrived quickly cleared all the stuff that was broken in the atrium and cleaned the floors. Although they couldn’t switch in new chairs causing the entire atrium to feel somewhat empty, the atrium was no longer in a state of disarray from the battle. Now, the entire atrium became peaceful.
