After sitting down in first class, Xiao Li hesitated, looking at Lu Zhou next to him.

Lu Zhou breathed a sigh of relief as he sat down. He could finally have some peace and quiet. It was really hard to ignore the gazes around him.

"Say what you want to say," he asked, turning to Xiao Li next door with his hands folded over his stomach.

Upon hearing the voice, Xiao Li quickly bent down and tried to get as close to Lu Zhou as possible, whispering, "Lu Zhou, the bureau has a rule that we can only fly economy class. The bureau definitely won't reimburse us for upgrading." Xiao Li looked a little embarrassed.

"Brother Li, this is my personal upgrade price, including yours. Don't worry, the finance department won't come after us." It turned out that this was what Xiao Li was worried about.

“Then, I’ll make up the difference for the upgrade when we get back. We came out together, I can’t take advantage of you,” Xiao Li said firmly to Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou burst out laughing.

"Okay, Secretary Li."

Lu Zhou knew that people like Xiao Li were straightforward and single-minded. If you didn't agree to his request, he would throw money in your face, thinking you had something to gain from him. After that, it would be difficult for you to talk to him again. So he didn't say much and thought he would organize a lottery event for him later.

Kyoto Military Region

Chu Qingzhi was reporting on the students' military training.

Everything is proceeding smoothly. As long as Chu Qingzhi grasps the general direction, Jiang Wang and the class monitor will take care of everything else. The students have been divided into teams, and they each have their own team leaders.

To avoid being ridiculed by other teams, many of these team captains would proactively go and do extra training with their teammates.

"Your method is good; we don't need to keep a constant eye on them. But we still need to be careful. Are we starting target practice next week?" the man asked.

"Yes"

"Brother, don't worry, just sit down and watch. I sent you something good, open it and see, there's a surprise." Chu Qingzhi said mysteriously to the man.

The only person he'd call "brother" and who was reporting to him was his aunt, Chu Bing, the eldest grandson who served as a regimental commander in the Kyoto Military Region.

Xia Yijun is Xia Yiyang's elder brother.

Xia Yijun suspiciously opened a video sent by Chu Qingzhi on her computer.

Chu Qingzhi paid close attention to Xia Yijun's changing expressions.

The video isn't long, but it contains the best parts of the edited video.

"What is this?" Xia Yijun looked up and asked Chu Qingzhi, who was looking at him, with a mixture of doubt and certainty.

"Hmm, didn't expect that, did you? Aren't our two younger sisters a sight to behold? They're impossible to ignore, and even standing still, they're not to be underestimated." *Beep!* The sister-complex has kicked in.

"We heard from the military academy last time that a freshman ran forty kilometers carrying weights?" Xia Yijun asked, expressing her doubt.

"It was her too."

"But so far, she has performed adequately in this military training, without standing out at all. See Xiao Yang? That arrogant kid is actually following behind quietly without causing any trouble. When has he ever been so obedient since he was a child?"

"Did you see that footage just now? The improved drones that Aci recently sent over can basically monitor without making a sound, but they were detected as soon as they arrived. Their sensitivity is truly impressive." Chu Qingzhi's description was not an exaggeration at all, because they all knew that Aci's drones had already helped them complete several missions, not to mention this improved version.
