I suggest you investigate; this person doesn't seem to be a first-time reborn individual.

The second day of military training.

Early in the morning, the sun was like a welder who was having a blast, wielding his welding torch and shoving it right at people's heads.

Lin Ran went to the debate of the entrepreneurship competition yesterday, so today is his first day of military training.

As soon as he walked to his class's formation, he felt several eyes on him.

Turning his head, he saw several girls watching him and whispering to each other, occasionally chuckling to themselves.

He didn't pay much attention, having already recognized several of them as his classmates. One of them, Xiao Manshu, was plump and whose curves were still impossible to hide even in her military training uniform.

Just then, the assembly whistle sounded.

"Attention, everyone!"

The instructor's deep voice drowned out all the noise, and there were clearly several empty spaces on the girls' side.

The instructor's face darkened, and his gaze swept across the entire room, pausing briefly at a few empty seats.

"Squad leader! Step forward!"

Lin Ran strode forward.

The instructor walked up to Lin Ran, his finger almost poking into his chest.

"Several people are missing, didn't you know? Are you just a figurehead as class monitor?"

The entire formation fell silent.

Sun Xiaoyu stood in the first row, her face expressionless, simply watching Lin Ran's reaction.

Lin Ran was taken aback. Someone was missing?

He first glanced back at the empty space in the formation, then roughly counted the number of people, and it seemed that several were indeed missing.

His obvious gesture of confirmation was noticed by everyone.

He turned to the instructor: "Reporting, instructor! The students who were absent have already asked for leave!"

Sun Xiaoyu, who was secretly observing, looked at Lin Ran speechlessly.

You, Class Monitor Lin, at least think this through, okay?

Even a fool could tell you're lying, honey!

Several classmates exchanged glances, but no one said a word.

The young instructor raised an eyebrow and suddenly laughed, laughing out of exasperation.

"Appointed for leave? You didn't even come to military training yesterday, how did I get permission for you to leave? Did I appear in your dream?"

Someone in the group couldn't help but burst out laughing, but quickly swallowed it back.

Lin Ran remained expressionless: "He asked me for leave after training yesterday, and I agreed."

"Where's the leave slip?"

"I'll make it up to you today!"

The instructor stared at him for a full five seconds, trying to glean something from Lin Ran's eyes, but he failed.

Lin Ran's eyes were so determined, it was as if he wanted to join the Party.

For those few seconds, the entire formation was completely silent, with only the shouts of other formations audible.

The next moment, the instructor suddenly raised his voice:

"Okay! If we don't see the leave slip before noon." He turned to look at everyone.

"The squad will have extra training! No lunch break! Until they return!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately began to wail in pain.

Sun Xiaoyu's face turned deathly pale instantly; she hadn't expected things to escalate to this point.

"Yes!" Lin Ran replied without hesitation.

During a break in military training, Lin Ran found the instructor drinking water under the shade of a tree.

"Report."

The instructor glanced at him but didn't say anything.

"Instructor, I just lied." Lin Ran stood ramrod straight.

"The students who were absent did not ask me for leave."

The instructor then turned to look at him.

"Now you admit it? Weren't you quite the storyteller just now?"

Lin Ran lowered his voice: "Instructor, several girls have already received demerits since they first enrolled, which will look bad on their records. Please be understanding."

The instructor shook his head: "That's not something I should be concerned about."

He actually came from a military background and quite admired Lin Ran's protective behavior, but he still had to maintain a certain air.

"Instructor, you reported five absences the very next day. The head instructor won't be able to explain that, will he?"

The instructor's eyes flickered, but he didn't say anything.

Lin Ran continued, "I just became the class monitor and I haven't managed the class well, so I should be punished."

"Give me a chance, and I promise that everyone will be present during the upcoming training, and I will personally submit the self-criticisms of several people to you tonight."

In the distance, the assembly calls from other formations could be heard.

The instructor glanced at Lin Ran: "You're quite the strategist."

"I wouldn't dare!" Lin Ran stood ramrod straight. "I just don't want our team to become a negative example the next day."

The instructor was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke: "Return to your units!"

"yes!"

Lin Ran jogged back to the formation under the watchful eyes of everyone.

In Lin Ran's opinion, this was really no big deal.

The instructors were all young men, and they didn't want to be laughed at by the other teams. They only had less than half a month together, so they were on good terms and the meeting ended quickly.

So, if you give him a way out, everything will be fine.

After the formations were assembled.

The instructor scanned the crowd once more.

"Lin Ran!"

"arrive!"

"You missed a whole day yesterday, and you're still trying to talk back to me today!"

"Five laps around the drill ground! Plus half an hour of standing at attention! Make up for the training you missed yesterday!"

Lin Ran's eyes widened, thinking, "Didn't I already give you a way out? This damn instructor is so petty."

However, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Since the instructor said so, the matter was basically over.

"Reporting, Instructor!"

"explain!"

"Zhao Feiyu said he has long legs and is willing to share the burden with me!"

Zhao Feiyu, who was exchanging glances with Ding Facai in the formation, froze upon hearing this.

"Can!"

The instructor readily agreed. "Zhao Feiyu, step forward! You two will run ten laps together. You can decide how to divide the laps yourselves!"

Zhao Feiyu dared to joke around with Lin Ran, but he didn't have the guts to challenge the instructor's authority.

"You idiot Lin Laosi, you can run away on your own, but why are you dragging me along?!"

"Are you stupid? Don't you want to pursue Sun Xiaoyu? Isn't this your chance to show off your strong physique?"

Zhao Feiyu's eyes lit up, thinking that made sense, but he also vaguely felt that something was not right.

However, when he saw Sun Xiaoyu looking this way from a distance, his eyes instantly lit up with excitement.

Brother, those long legs of yours, wouldn't they stun you?

After running six laps, Zhao Feiyu waited until he was out of breath before leisurely "passing" past Sun Xiaoyu.

Ding Facai, who was waiting for the two of them, gave Zhao Feiyu a thumbs up.

"Old Zhao, impressive! You ran two more laps than Lin Lao Si!"

Zhao Feiyu glanced at Sun Xiaoyu, and straightened his back even more.

"It's alright, my clothes are just a little dirty."

When Lin Ran returned to the team, soaked to the bone, morning training had just ended.

The instructor called him to the shade of a tree and threw him a bottle of water.

"When will everyone be gathered?"

"I'll definitely bring it to you before lunch break." Lin Ran unscrewed the bottle cap. "I'll give them extra training this afternoon."

The instructor watched him gulp down water and said, "You've got some nerve, kid."

Lin Ran wiped his mouth: "It's all thanks to the instructors that I had the opportunity."

"Don't give me that. This afternoon's training is your responsibility. If they don't perform well, you'll have to train with them again."

"clear."

Sun Xiaoyu watched Lin Ran and the instructor discussing something from a distance, and looked at them with some concern.
