Special Forces: I Can See the Experience Bar

Chapter 305 The Return Journey: Laughter and Jokes as the High School Team Searches
"We're almost done with the work, the operation is over. Notify Team B to prepare to return to the Wolf's Den."

Lin Zizhong, a high school team member, left Geng Jihui with a slender yet upright silhouette.

The battle between Group B and more than two hundred criminals in Langde Village was quite large, after all, armed helicopters were deployed.

This had a significant impact on the aftermath of Operation Jungle Wolf, leading to Team B's early withdrawal from the operation.

Finally, after deliberation by higher authorities, it was decided to terminate Operation Jungle Wolf, because intelligence from the leadership indicated that the national crime rate had plummeted after the Langde Village incident, and criminal activities involving the production and sale of heroin had come to a standstill.

The objective of this operation to intimidate others was achieved ahead of schedule. Therefore, after deliberation by higher authorities, it was decided to end Operation Jungle Wolf ahead of schedule. The withdrawal of Group B is just the beginning. The armed police will also withdraw in succession, and the remaining cleanup work will be completed by the grassroots public security.

"It's finally over."

Chang Ning took one last look at Langde Village before boarding the plane, and here he changed the plot once again.

I wonder if, after disturbing the ostrich this time, it will still end up as a couple with Xia Lan?

Emotionally speaking, Chang Ning definitely didn't want Xia Lan and Tuoniao to get together; this woman's self-righteous personality would ruin things.

But then again, who can say for sure about matters of the heart?

What if they end up getting together later?

So be it, it doesn't matter anymore.

Chang Ning didn't believe that with her as a variable, the plot would remain unchanged.

If Xia Lan affects him again next time, he will still relentlessly criticize her.

It's tough on the ostrich, if those two could get together.

However, as long as those bad plot points can be changed, a little hardship for the ostrich is nothing; I believe the ostrich will understand.

"Chang Ning, hurry up and board the plane! What are you daydreaming about?"

Seeing that Chang Ning was looking in the opposite direction of Langde Village and lingering there, Geng Jihui assumed that the guy was reluctant to leave.

So he figured that since they were unlikely to come back after leaving, it wouldn't hurt to let Changning take another look.

Five or six minutes had passed, and the pilots were getting impatient, but Chang Ning still hadn't boarded the plane. This wouldn't do.
Even if you're reluctant to leave, you still have to go eventually, right? You can't stay in Langde Village forever.

Finally, Geng Jihui couldn't stand it anymore. He patted Chang Ning on the shoulder, signaling him to hurry up and board the plane; there was no time to waste with him.

"understood."

Once he came to his senses, Chang Ning entered the cabin, retracted the ladder, and closed the door. The helicopter slowly ascended, gradually becoming a small black dot in the eyes of the Langde Village villagers until it disappeared.

The journey through Operation Jungle Wolf was incredibly difficult, but the return to Wolf Fang base by helicopter was remarkably easy.

Having been busy all night and having to outwit and outmaneuver Xia Lan, Chang Ning had already fallen into a deep sleep leaning against the cabin wall. When he woke up, the pilot had already smoothly brought the helicopter to a stop on the tarmac.

The pilot's skills were so superb that Chang Ning didn't even feel a thing. When he regained consciousness, he was already in Wolf Fang.

"Right dress... Eyes forward... At ease..."

Chang Ning subconsciously followed Geng Jihui's commands and performed the formation movements.

"Take a look, what is this?"

He Zhijun raised a stack of red-headed documents in his hand and looked at Lone Wolf Team B with a smile.

The text on the paper was dense and small, and because He Zhijun's hand was constantly moving, causing the document to shift from left to right, Chang Ning and the others naturally couldn't see the contents of the document.

Feeling relaxed and even a little happy, He Zhijun kept Chang Ning and the others in suspense for a moment before finally dropping the preamble.

"I have two documents in my hand, one from the Provincial Public Security Department and one from our military region."

I'm sure you carefully selected and trained smart people can guess what's written above.

He Zhijun paused to observe the expressions of Chang Ning and the others, but unfortunately, all he saw were young faces with no expression.

This was entirely expected, and he was very pleased, so he continued, "That's right, everything here praises you; it's full of your achievements and accolades."

Hearing this, and seeing Captain He still smiling, Chang Ning sensed something was wrong.

Based on Wolf Fang's usual practices, there should be a turning point coming, for example...

"But don't think that what you've done is so great; you're still far from it!"
I will send someone to deliver the commendation to you later. Now go back to 026 to write the task summary report.

Remember, it must be deeply ingrained!

When Chang Ning heard Captain He say "but," he knew this was going to happen.

The carrot and stick theory is an essential skill for management.

The purpose is to prevent everyone from becoming arrogant, and to encourage them to be humble and cautious.

The problem was that Chang Ning didn't notice the change in his comrades' emotions, which had become arrogant. They had taken the mission as casually as eating and drinking.

Perhaps only when there are cases of outstanding meritorious service or the sacrifice of comrades-in-arms will people's emotions be stirred.

Chang Ning didn't know how the others felt, but the ostrich must have been feeling terrible.

Who told him to make a mistake during this operation? He lost his composure and made the wrong decision over a woman he had absolutely no connection with.

If they let him have it easy, then the high school team will make things difficult for Geng Jihui.

"Paratrooper, remember to make sure you understand the mission summary well later."

Geng Jihui looked at the ostrich expressionlessly; the ostrich's performance during the operation in Langde Village was rather disappointing.

Instead of sympathizing with the ostrich's humiliation, the others suppressed their laughter, clearly gloating.

"it is good."

The ostrich knew that it had indeed gone too far this time, and knowing that it was in the wrong, it did not dare to refute Geng Jihui's decision, nor did it try to evade the responsibility of writing a self-criticism by cheating.

The main problem was that he lacked the confidence. If Chang Ning hadn't pointed out the problem and reminded Geng Jihui, things might have gotten messy later.

Speaking of Chang Ning, his performance this time was remarkable, especially his reminder to Geng Jihui to change the plan during the Langde Village operation.

Therefore, he will most likely receive commendation from the military region upon his return, and the reward from the Wolf Fang Special Forces is also a foregone conclusion.

In addition to the merits he has gained in previous operations, his military rank may be promoted.

Of course, anything is possible before things are finalized, and Chang Ning herself didn't pay much attention to these things.

Since joining the army, Chang Ning believes he has performed well, earning numerous awards and commendations, which are enough to keep him in the military for a long time.

Given his relatively young age within the military, he has plenty of time and obtaining a higher rank is not difficult.

Therefore, Chang Ning herself is not very clear about her career plan.

His attention was now focused on making fun of the ostrich, especially since the ostrich was going to give Captain He a briefing on the operation later, which would inevitably include the mistakes he had made.

Chang Ning was very interested in how Captain He would punish the ostrich and what kind of punishment he would give.

Anyway, no matter what punishment Captain He gives, he won't let Ostrich leave Group B, so Chang Ning isn't worried about Ostrich at all; on the contrary, she's really looking forward to Ostrich's misfortune.

Soon after, everyone finished their summaries, except for Ostrich, who was left until the very end.

He was placed last because he made many mistakes and needed to summarize his experiences.

Under the mocking gazes of his comrades, Ostrich picked up the completed draft and began to summarize his mistakes.

Although he made a mistake during the mission, Chang Ning's presence prevented any losses for Team B, so Captain He let him off the hook because of Ostrich's sincere attitude. However, mistakes must be punished, and Ostrich was punished by Captain He with a 10,000-word self-criticism and a week of confinement, which was a rather severe punishment.

After the meeting, everyone suppressed their laughter and pretended to be helpless as they looked at the ostrich.

This can't be blamed on Chang Ning and the others; they really are just ostriches.

It's his own fault for not being able to control himself, and now he looks so ridiculous with his eyebrows drooping.

"Just laugh if you want to, it's uncomfortable to hold it in."

Seeing his comrades struggling to hold back their laughter, the ostrich kindly offered a suggestion.

When he saw everyone laughing at him mercilessly to his face, he felt extremely unhappy.

"No, you guys are really laughing!"
Even if you're going to laugh, at least do it behind someone's back! This is like killing someone's spirit—are you even brothers anymore?

The ostrich, its face flushed red, angrily denounced its brothers for being inhuman.

"You're the one who made us laugh."

Xiao Zhuang managed to suppress his smile and replied, but his words hurt the ostrich even more.

And the ostrich couldn't refute it, since he had been so cheeky earlier.

I immediately regretted it!
The crowd burst into laughter at the sight of the ostrich's frustrated expression.

As Lu Xun aptly put it, people's joys and sorrows are not shared.

It's immoral to build your happiness on the suffering of others, but it can make you happier.

"You bunch of bad friends, you made a terrible choice in your friendships..."

Amidst cries of agony, the ostrich was taken to the confinement cell.

He will be locked up there for a week and will have to write a 10,000-word self-criticism in the detention room.

Given Ostrich's literary talent and hydrological abilities, Chang Ning was worried for him.

Fortunately, all that's needed is a 10,000-word self-criticism; Captain He probably doesn't care about the quality.

While the ostrich was in solitary confinement, Chang Ning and the others were extremely busy, holding various summary meetings and also going to the Provincial Public Security Department to participate in commendation activities.

The poor ostrich missed his chance to shine.

After various meetings, Chang Ning and others were drafted into the high school team, and every day they not only had to complete their own training tasks, but also had to train the rookies.

Sure enough, after the ostrich was released from confinement, it heard about this good news and excitedly headed towards the high school team.

"Does he think that by helping train a new batch of rookies, he won't have to train them himself?"

Chang Ning, without anyone noticing, sidled up next to the medic and asked the ostrich that was strutting around.

"Maybe so. You know ostriches have small brains, so he's going to have a hard time."

The medic could see the extent of the ostrich's misfortune.

It's easy to imagine how badly the ostrich, who didn't have the key information, would be disciplined by the high school team later.

Just as everyone was anticipating the ostrich's unfortunate moment, the ostrich trotted up to the high school team.

"Paratrooper, you've come at the right time. Help me call Chang Ning over."

Before the ostrich could even open its mouth, the high school team interrupted its spellcasting.

Seeing the ostrich standing still, Captain Gao frowned: "What? Do you need something from me?"

Seeing the team leader's stern face, Ostrich was startled and waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "No, no, I was just spacing out. You're calling Chang Ning, right? I'll call him over right away."

Having said that, the ostrich fled in a sorry state.

"Am I that scary? This isn't training."

The high school team leader was puzzled as he watched the ostrich flee in disarray, wondering if the kid had done something wrong. He decided to investigate thoroughly and not let him make any more mistakes.

Having finally assembled such a lineup for Group B, the high school team didn't want their hard work to go to waste.

"See? I told you he was bound to be unlucky."

As soon as the medic saw the ostrich rush back, he couldn't wait to tell everyone, as if he wanted to prove something.

"What's wrong? Did the wolves catch you?"

Chang Ning seemed unaware of the reason, asking the question knowing the answer already.

He originally wanted to see the ostrich make a fool of itself, but who knew that the ostrich's opening words were about him, and he ended up getting himself into the mess.

"The high school team wants you to come over," Ostrich said.

"I?"

Chang Ning pointed to herself, unable to believe it.

He recalled his performance during this period, saying that he trained hard and did not cause any trouble for the high school.

Chang Ning felt extremely uneasy about being contacted for no apparent reason.

He thought to himself, "Is the high school team going to give me a try?"

After much thought, this is the only idea that seems to fit the facts.

The high school team has always had the habit of personally investigating the situation of each member of the Lone Wolf Commando Team.

When the high school team leader saw that they were looking for Chang Ning, everyone's attention shifted from the ostrich to Chang Ning, their eyes filled with curiosity.

Everyone is a member of Group B, and their skills are roughly the same, so why did the high school team specifically seek out Chang Ning?
Is it because they're giving me special treatment?

Everyone was curious about why the high school team was looking for Chang Ning.

"Don't look at me, I don't know why myself."

Don't worry, everyone, I'll go and find out right now.

I'll come back and tell the brothers when the results are out.

After saying that, Chang Ning jogged over to the high school team and saluted them with a "snap".

Whether the high school team just wants to train him or they really need his help, first of all, they need to have the right attitude so that no one can find fault with them.

If her superiors find fault with this, Chang Ning will have no choice but to make the high school team practice.

"Come with me, I need to talk to you about something."

After finishing his sentence, Gao Zhong turned and left, seemingly not at all worried that Chang Ning wouldn't follow.

Chang Ning, who was prepared to face the onslaught from the high school team, now felt like he had punched cotton, filled with a sense of powerlessness.

Chang Ning could only obediently follow behind the high school team, and it seemed they were heading towards the headquarters office building.

Does Captain He have something to ask me?

When the senior team needs to contact him, they usually talk to him in the warehouse or training ground after 026. Only when Captain He wants to contact their B group will they go to the office building.
