88

Even with his composure, Commander Kang hadn't expected Tang Yue to ask that question right away. Commander Kang had considered many possible questions Tang Yue might ask when they met, but he had overlooked the fact that she was still a child.

"Well, I should be able to go home after our talk today."

Tang Yue nodded, not asking why she was being made to stay here for so long. She already knew.

Actually, she didn't want to know too many secrets about the military, but she had no choice. She wanted to know how much longer she had to stay. In fact, she could leave the military and go home secretly in the middle of the night.

However, she could now sense the distance between the military base and her home using her consciousness, though it consumed a lot of mental energy. Tang Yue had only checked on it once during that time. Seeing that nothing major had happened at home, Tang Yue wasn't in a hurry.

Seeing that Tang Yue remained silent for a long time, Commander Kang had no choice but to speak.

"Tang Yue, tell me about the day you discovered the spy."

Tang Yue didn't hide anything and told Commander Kang everything about how they discovered the spies that day. Commander Kang seized the opportunity to ask, "Tang Yue, you're only four years old. How dare you go up the mountain by yourself? And you saw a herd of wild boars and a tiger, and you weren't afraid at all?"

Tang Yue blinked her big eyes at Commander Kang, "Didn't I say I'm very strong? Also, I can run pretty fast."

Commander Kang vaguely remembered that Chang Yin had mentioned that this little girl was somewhat different from ordinary children, but at the time Commander Kang hadn't really taken it seriously. Now that he heard about it, he was still somewhat skeptical.

However, he plans to verify it later.

"Tang Yue, how did you come to know about herbs?"

Tang Yue looked at him, "I will in my dreams."

Commander Kang's expression turned serious. "Tang Yue, this is the military. Children are not allowed to lie."

Tang Yue sighed. "I don't know who he is either. Anyway, I used to be sick a lot, and that old man would often come to my house to teach me things when my parents weren't home. Later, I felt like I was learning more and more."

Commander Kang didn't believe Tang Yue's words at all, but after so many investigations, they found nothing wrong with Tang Yue's family. Could there really be such a person?

"You used to be sick all the time, how come you're better now?"

"I have to thank my uncle. If she hadn't tried to bury me alive, I felt like I was about to die. When I came back to life, I felt much better than before. I also made a lot of herbal medicine to drink, and that's how I ended up like this."

Commander Kang hadn't seen these things in the files he'd reviewed, but it's normal not to find information about things children do on their own. "How can you be so sure that person is a spy?"

"I don't know. I sneaked in and saw it when the tiger was far from the cave. I saw that thing the spies used on the train when I came to the South Island last time, and I even reported it to the police on the train."

Commander Kang knew about this matter, and to be honest, it was a complicated story for him. Gu Yanxi's identity...

"Ahem, how can you be so sure he's a spy and not a good person?"

Tang Yue's expression remained unchanged. "I don't know either. But I find him suspicious. Wouldn't it be better to have him arrested and interrogated to find out if he's a good person or not?"

Commander Kang felt somewhat burdened by Tang Yue's trust.

"Tang Yue, you've done a great job."

Tang Yue smiled. "Really? What reward will I get?"

Commander Kang felt this was more like a four-year-old child. "What reward do you want?"

Looking into Tang Yue's big eyes, Commander Kang suddenly had an impulse: it wouldn't be a bad idea to bring this little girl into the army.

Tang Yue thought for a moment, "Could you give me more books? Any kind is fine."

Do you like reading?

"Yes, I know quite a few characters, but I'm not very good at writing them yet."

Commander Kang agreed, after all, Chang Yin had already shown him the note she had written, and he really couldn't compliment her handwriting.

Tang Yue continued, "It would be even better if we had more paper and pens."

Buying books at a bookstore isn't that easy. It would be simpler if the military could handle it.

Commander Kang thought it wasn't a big problem, "Hmm, okay, that's fine."

After that, Tang Yue quieted down.

"Is there nothing you want?"

Tang Yue looked at Commander Kang and asked, "Can the army provide money? My family is quite poor."

Commander Kang...

In this day and age, who isn't poor?

"Yes, I will apply for it, and you will receive a bonus."

"OK, thanks."

"Tang Yue, do you want to join the army?"

"Come to the army?" What does that mean? Tang Yue was a little confused about Commander Kang's intentions. Like this? She still didn't really like that.

Although the spiritual energy here is abundant, the mountains back home are just as good, and besides, if she really wanted to absorb it, she could just sneak over at night. She doesn't like being stuck here every day, unable to go anywhere.

Seeing the doubt on Tang Yue's face, Commander Kang felt that although his idea was bold, it wasn't impossible. It hadn't happened before, but who said there couldn't be promising young soldiers trained from a young age in the future?

"Do you want to join the army?"

Fortunately, Tang Yue hadn't drunk any water, otherwise she would have definitely spat it out.

"Uncle, are soldiers being recruited at such a young age now?"

Commander Kang was a little embarrassed. "Not really. But if you want to join the army, the military can make an exception and admit you."

Tang Yue quickly shook her head, "I don't want to."

Commander Kang was surprised by the girl's straightforward answer. "Don't you want to contribute to the country?"

“I don’t want to leave my mom, my brothers, and my grandpa. Also, I’m too young and don’t want to exercise like those uncles every day. And I can only stay in one place every day and can’t go anywhere else.”
