Shipborne Special Forces.

After Jia Qu left, You Jiang stared blankly at everyone. It took him a long time to finally speak: "Are you just going to watch me get tormented like this?"

"Otherwise what? Would we help you assassinate Grandpa Bi?" Xiao Tian said leisurely.

"Actually, that's an option too," You Jiang said slowly after a moment of contemplation.

Then the doctor, with a dark expression, got out of bed with his knife.

Upon seeing the miracle doctor, You Jiang immediately declared righteously, "I'll take responsibility for my own mistakes. Don't worry, I will never implicate anyone."

"You should atone for your sins," the divine doctor said coldly. However, judging from his gait, he probably suffered some aftereffects, just like Grandpa Bi.

Looking at the doctor's condition, Wang Aiguo felt genuine sympathy for the child. Judging from yesterday's situation, the animal's kidneys were almost ruined, and now his testicles were nearly gone too. If there was any irreversible damage, it would be a tragedy that would leave him childless.

Wait, something doesn't seem right. If that's the case, then he and the instructor...

Thinking of this, Wang Aiguo suddenly shuddered. If the instructor came back, he'd probably kill him!

.......

With a little while before starting his shift, Youjiang finished washing up and lay listlessly on the bed, looking utterly dejected.

"Sigh, my status has plummeted since joining the army. Anyone can bully me here! It's so unfair! I used to be the school bully, with tons of beautiful girls throwing themselves at me, and I could change girlfriends every three days. But now... sigh."

After You Jiang finished speaking, everyone was stunned.

The divine physician, in particular, looked You Jiang up and down, then frowned slightly and said, "Um, don't you feel any remorse saying such things?"

"Holy crap, you think I'm kidding? Look at me, with my physique, my looks, my IQ..."

Before Youjiang could finish speaking, the monk snorted and said, "With your IQ, you wouldn't even last two episodes in a TV series."

"His looks are just average, like an extra." After the monk finished speaking, Huang Gang casually added insult to injury.

Right Jiang's face stiffened. Just as he was about to say something, the divine doctor delivered the final blow.

"His physique is only slightly better than Wang Aiguo's."

This blow sent a sharp pain through the back of You Jiang's head. Wang Aiguo, lying bewildered in the lower bunk of the "miracle doctor," wondered what this had to do with him.

After a long pause, the man on the right suddenly stood up, yelling from the upper bunk, "Tell me! What will it take for you to believe me?"

"Unless you scald J with boiling water," Xiao Tian replied from the side.

The right side turned straight back with white eyes; this dormitory is really too abnormal.

Not wanting to waste any more words with Wang Aiguo and the others, You Jiang jumped out of bed and huffed and puffed as he headed for the toilet.

As soon as he reached the door, he bumped into Li Zimu.

The next moment, You Jiang screamed desperately. Li Zimu looked at You Jiang with a bewildered expression and said, "Brother, don't you ever look up when you walk? I just got some hot water for washing my hair."

After Li Zimu finished speaking, the dormitory fell silent instantly, leaving only You Jiang, who was still yelling.

Wang Aiguo and the others all looked at Xiaotian, who looked completely bewildered.

"Is your mouth blessed? You said you'd scald J-ba with boiling water, and then you actually did it?"

Xiao Tian was also speechless, but the next moment, his expression changed slightly and he said, "Wait, since it happened, that means... what You Jiang said was true?"

Everyone stared at You Jiang, who was still clutching his groin and yelling, with strange expressions, secretly thinking, "Could this guy really have been a school bully before?"

……

September arrived in the blink of an eye. After a month in the recruit camp, everyone gradually began to get used to military life.

As familiarity grew, the initial enthusiasm for the military gradually faded. Military life was monotonous, consisting mainly of physical and drill training, with only occasional political classes.

There are no computers or cell phones here; everyone's life seems to have returned to its most primitive state.

When we first arrived at the unit, we saw a few people bringing basic books with them. At first, everyone laughed at them, but after a month, everyone realized that these people were the ones with true foresight.

In Wang Aiguo's dormitory, he was the only one who brought a book. Normally, everyone's books would be eagerly passed around and read. However, no one borrowed Wang Aiguo's book because it was "Advanced Chapter on Mechanical Language and Multi-Base Conversion".

This piece of junk wouldn't even be worth a look at in a university.

Just when everyone was getting bored to the point of collapse, the chat room in the convenience store opened.

What I mean by "talking" is telephone.

The business of selling phone cards is no longer popular on universities. However, in the military where cell phones are unavailable, the importance of phone booths becomes apparent.

On the first weekend after the call center opened, a huge line formed outside. Although everyone was in their twenties, they were, strictly speaking, still children who hadn't yet entered society. After a month without seeing their families, or even being unable to contact them, they all felt a little empty inside.

When Wang Aiguo arrived in the morning, he found the phone booth already packed with people. Many were tearful, clutching their phones as if they were holding onto their girlfriends.

Wang Aiguo shook his head helplessly and decided to come back to check again that evening.

That evening, Wang Aiguo deliberately ate quickly, and as soon as he finished eating, he rushed to a phone booth and grabbed a call.

After picking up the phone, Wang Aiguo considered for a moment before finally dialing home.

Soon, a familiar voice came from the phone.

"Is it you who loves your country?" Wang Jianshe asked in a low voice.

Wang Aiguo nodded subconsciously and said, "It's me, Dad."

"You can make phone calls now, looks like the phone booth at your recruit camp is open. How's it going, what's it like after a month at recruit camp?"

Faced with Wang Jianshe's question, Wang Aiguo suddenly felt a lump in his throat. Looking back on the past month, it had truly been hell.

When Wang Jianshe noticed that Wang Aiguo didn't reply, he paused for a moment before continuing, "I pretty much know what you're thinking. This past month has probably been very tough for you, and I understand that it's been a very difficult time. But I want to tell you that although the military is tough, monotonous, and painful, if you experience it carefully, you will gain many things there that you can't get in society. For example, the purest friendship between comrades."

After Wang Jianshe finished speaking, Wang Aiguo suddenly thought of the cult leader and Lao Niu, whose instant noodles he had robbed, and You Jiang, who was forced by him to eat noodles in the toilet.

"Besides friendship, you can also feel the meticulous care that superiors have for their subordinates, the kind of care that is like that of an elder."

After Wang Jianshe finished speaking, Wang Aiguo suddenly thought of the instructor. As for his relationship with the instructor, well, forget about any care; he'd be grateful if he were spared.
