I put you in charge of those rebellious female soldiers, how come they all became top special forces

The next morning, at the canteen, at the table of Mulan's team.

The keyboard didn't come, claiming he was unwell, but even Guo Huaiying couldn't be fooled by that excuse.

After all, after that late-night interrogation last night, Jianpan covered his face and rushed back to his dorm, burying himself under the covers and hasn't shown his face since.

Chen Zheng arrived as scheduled, carrying his thermos, and plopped down opposite An Ran.

Good morning, instructor.

Guo Huaiying greeted him with two large meat buns stuffed in her mouth.

An Ran turned her head away: "Why are some people here so early in the morning instead of comforting the students who were frightened last night?"

Chen Zheng rolled his eyes and said slowly:

"Stop being sarcastic; last night was a serious conversation."

"But you guys, having shared a room with her for so long, haven't you been able to provide any information?"

He genuinely didn't believe that someone like Keyboard couldn't possibly have no story behind him.

But that girl was like a mimosa, shrinking back at the slightest touch, which was really troublesome.

"intelligence?"

Ram leaned closer, looking curious. "Instructor, what do you want to know? Your measurements or your hobbies?"

"Get lost."

Chen Zheng rolled his eyes at her.

"I'm asking, besides coding and watching anime, does she usually socialize with other people?"

"Or, is there anyone or anything that you particularly care about?"

Everyone was stunned and looked at each other in bewilderment.

An Ran frowned and thought for a long time before finally shaking her head.

"That's all."

"It's really over. You know what kind of person she was."

"Aside from training, we're always glued to our computers. In reality, we have zero social interaction with anyone other than ourselves."

Chen Zheng fell silent again.

This is a difficult situation.

Is there really no story at all?

Just then.

A snoring sound came from the other end of the table.

Shen Doudou was fast asleep, slumped over the table, when she suddenly mumbled something:

"Who said there isn't... that... that thing called 'Level 8 Gale'..."

"Um?"

Chen Zheng's ears twitched, and his gaze instantly locked onto Shen Doudou.

"What kind of strong wind is this?"

An Ran was also taken aback, then realized, "It's a screen name, right? Why does it sound so strange?"

"Dou Dou! Shen Dou Dou!"

Ram immediately reached out to push Shen Doudou, "Wake up! Tell me, what's this level eight gale?"

Shen Doudou waved her hand and continued slowly:

"I have a long-time online friend on the keyboard; if there's any story behind it, it'll most likely come from there..."

Everyone's eyes widened in surprise.

That keyboard user, who was extremely socially anxious, actually had a friend of many years.

This is even more unbelievable than Guo Huaiying's diet.

Chen Zheng narrowed his eyes.

The breakthrough has been found.

He put down his thermos and walked to Shen Doudou's side: "Wake up."

"If you tell me everything you know, I'll let you play on the computer for two hours tonight."

Swish!

Shen Doudou suddenly opened her eyes.

"make a deal!"

She woke up abruptly, wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth, and looked at Chen Zheng with a serious expression.

"Instructor, what do you want to know?"

"Betraying your comrades is a serious matter; you'll get extra pay."

Chen Zheng's lips twitched: "I'll get you a late-night snack."

"Okay!"

Shen Doudou immediately perked up and sat up straight.

"Actually, I discovered this by chance."

"We both play games on the same server. She's a little worse at the game than me, but she's not bad either."

"Of course, that's not important. What's important is that she has a regular duo partner, that 'Level 8 Gale'."

Upon hearing this, An Ran's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

"Online dating? Or with one of those creepy guys?"

"Is the keyboard user stupid? What kind of good person could have a username like that?"

"Stop, stop, stop!" Shen Doudou rolled her eyes. "Captain, can't you be a little more innocent?"

"She's a woman!"

"A woman?" An Ran was taken aback, her clenched fist immediately relaxing. "Then it's alright."

"And it's said they've known each other for almost ten years."

Shen Doudou sighed, picked up a fried dough stick from the table, and took a bite.

"According to Keyboard, they've known each other online since junior high."

"Back then, Keyboard had no friends in real life, and I relied entirely on this online friend for company."

"The two can talk about anything; they are true soulmates, and the keyboard is their spiritual refuge."

"If it weren't for this netizen, the keyboard might have been destroyed long ago."

Chen Zheng nodded thoughtfully.

That makes sense.

They feel extremely inferior in real life, so they seek solace in the virtual world.

"Is there anything between them that makes Keyboard Anxious, like arguing?" Chen Zheng pressed.

Shen Doudou swallowed the fried dough stick, her expression becoming somewhat complicated.

"The argument ended there, but... that online friend suggested meeting up."

"Meet up in person?" Ram exclaimed. "That's wonderful! A best friend of ten years finally meeting in real life, how touching!"

"Touching my foot!"

Shen Doudou shook her head. "For a keyboard, this is a disaster."

"She's an expert online, a tech geek who knows everything, and she's also very humorous."

"But in reality..."

Shen Doudou pointed to the empty seat with the keyboard.

She felt like an ugly duckling.

"He's unsophisticated, boring, and can't even speak properly."

"She was afraid that after meeting him, the filter she had built up over the past ten years would shatter."

"I'm afraid that if the other person sees the real me, they will be disappointed and might even break off contact."

"So the more enthusiastic the other person was about meeting, the more anxious she became, feeling like she was a fraud."

"A while ago, that online friend said she wanted to come to our city, and I've been trying to make plans with her."

"I'm really conflicted right now. I want to see him but I'm afraid to. It's quite painful, to be honest."

After hearing these words, the dining table fell silent.

Guo Huaiying put down the steamed bun in her hand and scratched her head.

"The keyboard isn't ugly either... I think it's quite pretty."

"This is a psychological issue, not a physical one."

An Ran sighed, saying with a hint of disappointment, "Why is this girl so timid?"

Chen Zheng remained silent.

He knew that this was the key to solving the problem.

[Ding! Team member Meiren's exclusive side quest has been triggered: True Courage.]

[Mission Objective: Help Meiren meet her online friend in person and overcome her feelings of inferiority.]

really.

Chen Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up.

Although he wasn't familiar with this offline meet-up business, it was still a task, and he had to get it done even if it meant risking his life typing away.

A wicked smile slowly crept onto his lips, making An Ran across from him feel a chill run down her spine.

"Instructor... what are you going to do now?"

"That expression doesn't look like it's up to no good."

Chen Zheng stood up and drank the goji berry water in his cup.

"Good thing, of course it's good thing."

He straightened his collar, his eyes gleaming.

"Since she's too scared to go, let's give her a hand."

"Meeting up with online friends? This kind of massive disaster... oh no, this massive family reunion, how could I miss it?"
