Chapter 29 Trigger 2

Qi He was completely unaware of the undercurrents on the field.

He has now found a new way to detect it.

——Exhaustive method.

Anyway, he just said it and didn't ask Yan Chuanbai to really do it.

He picked up the gun again and continued practicing.

Behind him, Yan Chuanbai looked at Shangguan Shangchun, seemingly guessing what he was thinking. Without explaining, he just curled his lips and admitted it with great fanfare.

He was not completely cooperating, he had ulterior motives.

Guan Shangchun narrowed his eyes and turned back.

Bang! Bang! The sound of gunfire continued.

You Tianxing was stunned.

He regained his composure after a few breaths, and leaned close to Yan Chuanbai, whispering, "Although... it's about sinking into the dust for love—" His expression was complicated, "But people like you are almost half buried in the ground."

After all, he was a colleague in the military. Yan Chuanbai aimed at the bull's eye and explained, "It's not exactly what you think."

Yu Jiang passed by in a wheelchair from behind:

No matter what you do...I just want it this way...

Her face was gloomy. After all this, why didn't they get back together?

After the shooting training comes the actual combat.

The two of them were fighting, and today they faced Guan Shangchun and You Tianxing first. You Tianxing had been trained in the military, so his skills were pretty good, and he almost dominated Guan Shangchun.

Qi He watched from the sidelines: Although he was at a disadvantage, Guan Shang's speed and prediction had improved. It seemed that he was not just talking about wanting to go to the front line.

Another sweeping kick followed by a chopping palm.

Plop! Guan Shangchun's body swayed, and he was about to fall down -

A force suddenly lifted him up and stabilized him.

Qi He withdrew his hand: Guan Shang sprained his ankle yesterday, and it is not advisable to aggravate the injury today.

Guan Shangchun felt it. He stood still and looked towards Qi He, his eyes sparkling as he smiled joyfully: "Qi Qi, thank you for protecting me again."

Qi Qi. Qi He was silent for a moment: Is he still stuck on his first impression of him?

Guan Shangjun seemed to react: "Sorry, I just said it casually. If you don't like it..."

Qi He: "It's okay, anything is fine."

As soon as the words fell, a voice fell beside him: "Haha."

"?" Qi He turned his head and looked at Yan Chuanbai, who had a sarcastic look on his face. "What are you sneering at?"

Yan Chuanbai said calmly: "I'm calling you, He He."

"..." Qi He responded: "What's your name, Bobo?"

Yan Chuanbai looked at his upturned face, touched his pale pink lips up and down, and after gently squeezing them, they became fuller again. He nodded and responded with some pleasure: "I allow it."

Qi He:?

He was suspicious: "System, is this also part of obeying 'requests'?"

The system said listlessly: […Hey, maybe.]

In the field, Guan Shangchun watched Qi He disappear in a few words. He paused for a moment before speaking, "Qi Qi, could you please coach me?"

Qi He turned around and asked, "What?"

Just as he finished speaking, he heard someone beside him say indifferently, "Do you think You Tianxing can't guide you?"

"..." Guan Shangchun looked at him straight in the eyes, "Brother You's guidance is very good. I'm just worried that the sprain will get worse and delay training. Qi Qi can control gravity-"

He said to Yan Chuanbai: "He is more suitable for me."

Yan Chuanbai's eyes turned cold, and his knuckles tightened. For just two seconds, he smiled again, as if not understanding the underlying meaning. "Oh, so you're afraid of falling."

Guan Shangchun was suddenly choked up.

Qi He glanced at Yan Chuanbai: ...You are quite good at motivating people.

Seeing that Guan Shangchun didn't say anything, he asked, "What do you think, Guan Shang?"

Guan Shangchun paused. He didn't want to be seen as weak.

...Yan Chuanbai is a strong rival.

Only by being strong can you fight against the strong.

He then turned to You Tianxing and returned to his usual demeanor: "Brother You, please continue to guide me."

-

A training session ends.

The gleam in Guan Shangchun's eyes had faded again. You Tianxing also looked dazed for some reason, while Yu Jiang's face was flushed and her breathing was more rapid than usual.

Qi He took a look and said: "Non-combat system still needs training."

Yan Chuanbai glanced at him and did not refute: "Yeah."

"Then we'll have another practice session tomorrow."

Training sessions usually started at 9:30, leaving You Tianxing and Yan Chuanbai half an hour to arrange military affairs.

The next day, Qi He got up at 9:15.

He was about to go to the training room when he received a message from You Tianxing: "Today's special training is temporarily cancelled. Everyone make your own arrangements. ~Xing."

Qi He:?

He speculated: "System, he wouldn't be avoiding practice because he's overwhelmed?"

The system glanced and said, "Yan Chuanbai will not tolerate such evil practices."

Qi He thought about it and agreed. He swiped again: Yan Chuanbai didn't send him a message, so it shouldn't be related to personal matters. It's very likely that something happened in the "upper level".

He tried to ask, "Is there something urgent?"

You Tianxing: "The base has received a suspected S-rank child, a rare healing type. We've reported this to headquarters and are awaiting further arrangements."

Suspected to be S-level, healing type, child?

Qi He nodded twice and replied, "I'll come over too."

…

The third floor of the institute.

Qi He had just turned down the corridor when he saw You Tianxing and several researchers standing at the other end. A few meters away was the reception room, with a group of military personnel guarding nearby.

He walked over and You Tianxing turned around: "You're here."

Qi He asked, "What's going on?"

"It's that child." You Tianxing gestured to the side. Qi He followed his gaze and saw a boy about 10 years old sitting in the living room.

She was sitting there quietly, wearing simple clothes. When she heard the noise, she looked up and looked at him curiously.

Qi He smiled at the man and turned back: "What do you mean by suspected?"

You Tianxing was still holding the instrument test curve in his hand: "His family members were killed, and he was rescued by a passing psychic and brought to the base. When he entered the base this morning, he underwent a routine test, and the results showed that his psychic level was repeatedly jumping between A and S-level--"

He added: "Moreover, it is an extremely rare cure."

Currently, there are very few known healing systems. The highest level is only A-level, which can only heal some superficial injuries.

If it's an S-level healing system...

Qi He's heart moved, and he said, "His level is unstable. He is probably still in the growth and development stage. His potential has not been fully stimulated. He may have the potential to be S-level."

"I thought so too, so I reported it to headquarters first."

As he was speaking, he heard several footsteps coming.

Turning around, he saw Yan Chuanbai leading several military personnel towards him. His gaze fell on him and stopped in front of him. He did not ask why Qi He was here, but only said:

"Prepare to send him to headquarters for training and protection."

You Tianxing was not surprised. The headquarters' armaments and resources were the best. "How do you send them?"

Yan Chuanbai, dressed in a neat uniform, pulled off his gloves and said calmly, "Base I is located in the southwest. We have to pass through Base II to reach the headquarters. I notified Base II and arranged for the handover at the midpoint. I will send the people all the way there."

"Who are you going to send?"

"It's a long drive, and there's some areas where communications aren't available. I'll take a team and go there myself."

After Yan Chuanbai finished speaking, You Tianxing nodded.

Qi He stood nearby and casually asked, "Do you really have to go?"

Yan Chuanbai paused, "...not necessarily."

Just as he finished speaking, Qi He suddenly heard a long-lost beeping sound in his mind: [Alert! Detected that the host has affected the ultimate...]

Qi He's eyelashes trembled and his heart rate suddenly accelerated.

He quickly changed his words: "Then you should go."

"?" Yan Chuanbai was stunned for a moment, and without hesitation, he responded, "Okay, then I'll go."

[Trigger Punishment——] Alarm terminated.

Qi He exhaled lightly and relaxed his body slightly.

He lowered his eyelashes and lowered the light in his eyes, with a smile on his lips: I finally caught it again, a factor that affects the ultimate plot.

-

Beside him, You Tianxing and several of his subordinates: "..."

The adjutant's eyes flickered quietly between the two men: "There's been talk lately that the Colonel and Mr. Qi are having a conflict. And every time it ends with the Colonel's unconditional obedience and submission, it's actually true—"

Their colonel used to be a troublemaker in the army and the most undisciplined. How did he become like this now?

Qi He didn't notice the gaze in front of him.

This time, the plot requires Yan Chuanbai to go, and something must happen there.

He looked up and said to Yan Chuanbai, "I want to go too."

Yan Chuanbai looked over and examined it carefully: "...Are you serious?"

Qi He was very sure: "Really."

We had just experienced a wave of invasion some time ago, and the surrounding area was cleared again, entering a short period of safety again.

Yan Chuanbai thought for a moment and said, "Okay."

…

The departure time is set for tomorrow.

The handover location was chosen between the two bases.

Going east is a plain, and the driving time is shorter. With Qi Qi's help, it is estimated to take only a day and a half.

The car has stopped at the gate of the base.

Qi He and Yan Chuanbai walked all the way there, accompanied by ten military subordinates.

"Who will be sent by the opposing base to take over?"

"It's also an S-rank."

Qi He glanced to the side.

Yan Chuanbai's expression was cold, as if he didn't want to discuss the matter further. Base II hadn't yet entered a safe period, so they probably wouldn't send out their only combat officer.

They want to send people to the headquarters, and the person who comes to contact them is most likely an S-level person affiliated with the military.

"You know him?"

Yan Chuanbai nodded, then frowned again, not knowing what he was thinking about: "When you meet him, try to stay away from him."

Qi He, "?"

Yan Chuanbai paused, "His ability is even greater than yours..."

Qi He speculated: "Strong?"

"…Nothing." Yan Chuanbai turned around as if nothing had happened and said to the little boy beside him, "Your name is Xiaohai? Come get in the car and sit in the back seat."

Qi He, “???”

System: [He might be trying to say, cheap.]

"That's impossible." Qi He said seriously, "No one can compare to me in this regard."

The system was speechless.

After a few words, he walked out of the base and came to the front of the car.

The car door slammed shut! Xiao Hai was sitting in the back seat, and Qi He was in the passenger seat. Just as he fastened his seatbelt, the communicator beeped, and he opened it to take a look.

Guan Shangjun: "Be careful on your journey and stay safe. I hope you come back soon. [Looking eagerly]"

A voice came from the side: "Is there something I need from you?"

"It's okay." Qi He replied "ok" and turned off the communication. "The official said to be careful."

Yan Chuanbai snorted and sneered.

He released the parking brake, one hand on the steering wheel, and looked out the window. "Then he..." He stopped talking. He was about to blurt out "Why only send it to you?" but swallowed it back.

He glanced sideways at Qi He.

The man beside him was studying a map with his head bent, his clear face reflecting his usual thoughtfulness. He was completely oblivious to what the other two were thinking.

You can't enlighten him for others.

Who would do something to help others?

Yan Chuanbai turned back, narrowed his eyes slightly, and changed his words: "I feel that he hates me."

Qi He looked up from the map, "What?"

"We left together. He didn't message me."

The meaning remains the same, but the emphasis has subtly shifted.

Qi He paused, thinking carefully: "System, there is no reason for the officials to hate Yan Chuanbai. So he only told me to 'be careful', because he thinks I am weaker than Yan Chuanbai?"

system:【……】

His expression hardened.

Beside him, Yan Chuanbai glanced at him, then retracted his gaze, and the scenery on the road passed by the car window.

He raised his lower lip in contempt:

So this is the taste of tea, he learned.

The author has something to say:

Yan Chuanbai: Learn from the foreigners’ advanced technology in order to defeat them.

Qi He: Someone has been provoking me. (Solemn)
