"What should we do next? Should we drag them into a protest? Or should we raid their homes?"

"We should just follow the example of how people outside do it."

It was the first time the children had done this, and they were unsure of what to do. They discussed it together, not knowing how to choose.

Before they could figure out what to do, Gu Ye and Xiao Chaoyang arrived.

"Men and women, stand in two rows, at attention."

Gu Ye's password startled the group of teenagers; they hadn't expected him to come. Who was Gu Ye? He was a name that could be associated with their island, and even the entire fleet—a top-three finisher in the entire military competition.

"Who gave you the audacity to run amok on the island? Now listen to my command: run! Keep formation, keep pace, and advance!"

This movement, which had not even begun, was forced to end under Gu Ye's immense pressure.

That night, countless children's wailing echoed from every house, and a few belts were broken—who knows how many more were lost.

Commander Yang also heard about this and convened a meeting of all officers, reiterating the importance of maintaining morale on the island. Enemy forces would occasionally provoke them at sea; if the rear was in chaos, how could they carry out their missions?

As for these teenagers, now that schools are closed, they can't just wander around the residential compound like this; something bad will happen sooner or later.

Commander Yang ordered the soldiers of the logistics unit to gather all the children over ten years old in the family compound for military training, so that they could expend their excess energy and avoid causing trouble.

Thanks to the timely control by the military, the whispers in the family compound also subsided.
