Chapter 440 Late at night, Du Juan called out three times, "Let's go." Qin Ye waved to Li Xiaoge.

Qin Ye's voice wasn't loud, but it sounded like it carried shards of ice, sending chills down Li Xiaoge's spine.

She ran away as if granted a pardon, her retreating figure as frantic as a rabbit being targeted by a falcon, not daring to linger for even a second.

Qin Ye stood still, his tall figure stretched long in the setting sun, like a silent statue.

He didn't turn around immediately, but just watched quietly as Li Xiaoge disappeared around the corner of the barracks, until that flustered green figure was completely gone.

He slowly turned around and walked towards the administrative building that looked particularly solemn in the twilight.

...

Night has fallen.

The dormitory area of ​​Battalion No. 3 fell into complete silence.

The hustle and bustle of the day and the sweat of the day were swallowed up by the thick darkness of night.

In the distance, the patrolling sentries' rubber boots clattered on the sandy ground, making a monotonous and rhythmic "rustling" sound. The autumn insects in the grass chirped tirelessly, adding a touch of noisy desolation to the deathly quiet night.

In the girls' dormitory.

After a full day of grueling, inhumane training, the girls were all fast asleep, every muscle in their bodies screaming with exhaustion, their souls already deep in slumber. Even if thunder were to rumble outside, it probably wouldn't wake them.

Su Tang lay on her bed with her eyes closed and her breathing steady and long. From the outside, she seemed to be sleeping more soundly than anyone else.

Moonlight streamed through the window, casting a soft glow on her face, adding a touch of serene beauty to her otherwise slightly rough and disguised features.

But in reality, her consciousness was clearer than ever before.

In absolute darkness and silence, her senses were amplified infinitely.

She could clearly hear Liu Landi's soft snoring from the upper bunk, could distinguish what Chen Xiaocao was mumbling in her sleep, and could even sense the movement of dust in the air.

Her mental focus was highly concentrated, and in her mind, like watching a movie, she reviewed everything that had happened in the past few days, frame by frame.

It all started three days ago in the infirmary.

She was treating Jiang Yan when Li Xiaoge barged in.

In Su Tang's mind, Li Xiaoge's pale, terrified, and somewhat strange face clearly appeared.

Then, the following evening, Chen Xiaocao made a casual remark.

At that time, Chen Xiaocao was eating her rice while whispering to her and Liu Landi: "Hey, isn't it strange? Yesterday, when I came back from the water room, I passed by the isolation room and saw the sanitation worker Li Xiaoge come out of it. Her face was as white as if she had seen a ghost. I called her name, and she was so scared that she almost jumped up. Then she went into the isolation room and locked the door, as if a wolf was chasing her."

Su Tang didn't say anything at the time, but silently kept the matter in her heart.

Now, these two seemingly unrelated clues are connected in her mind by an invisible thread.

Li Xiaoge stumbled upon her and Jiang Yan receiving treatment.

Li Xiaoge ran away in a panic to Bai Wei's isolation room.

A naive, timid, and righteous medic who is deceived by Bai Wei.

Bai Wei is someone who has been driven to the brink of despair, hates her to the core, and is adept at distorting the truth and inciting people.

What happens when these two people get together?

Just as Su Tang was calmly considering every possible outcome, an extremely faint, almost inaudible sound pierced through the window and reached her ears.
