Chapter 292 The Troublemaker (22)

On the second day, the 30 or so people who had run 20 laps yesterday were organized into a separate team and taught by Team Leader Zhang himself. The remaining 100 or so people who did not leave yesterday and insisted on running for a long time were taught individually by Brother Li and Doctor Wang.

At this point, in just one day, the team was divided into two groups and trained separately on both sides.

But there are still many "familiar people" in this team. Not to mention the four of them who are together, there are also Doctor Zhou, Lao Shi, several team members who went to Maolin to weed together, and several psychics who were met at the gate of the base yesterday. Even Professor Pei's granddaughter stayed.

Professor Pei’s granddaughter is called Pei Xin. Pei Xin is a member of Professor Pei’s professor group. She doesn’t know why she appeared in the special training group, but she is very sure that Pei Xin was not among the more than 30 people who finished running yesterday, so why did she appear here?

However, there was no time to think about it. Brother Zhang came over and said nothing. He just asked them to do 20 laps as punishment.

With yesterday's lesson in mind, everyone rushed to the track without hesitation. But that wasn't the end of the matter. Brother Zhang watched them run while muttering, "Didn't you line up in advance? Do I need to tell you this? You have no self-awareness at all. I'm telling you, 20 laps, not a single one less. If you can't finish in an hour and a half, add a few more laps."

Lan Jin and his friends were in good physical condition, but they couldn't run 20 laps in an hour and a half. Seeing the people around them obviously speeding up their pace, Lan Jin was really panicked and quickly quickened his pace.

Looking at Pei Xin's back, doubts rose in her heart again. She walked to Ling Jiang's side and asked quietly, "Was that woman also in our team yesterday? I don't remember seeing her yesterday."

"No." Ling Jiang said with certainty, "I was wondering just now. He wasn't with the team yesterday, so why is he here today?"

Ling Jiang couldn't stand Pei Xin. "This person seems to have a lot of grievances against us. I don't know what we did to provoke her. Did you notice that she rolled her eyes at us all day yesterday?"

How could she not see? Lan Jin was worried that this person might have eye cramps, but at this moment, she could only say, "As long as she doesn't provoke us, we shouldn't meddle in her affairs."

However, Ling Jiang didn't believe that this person would not provoke them. "I have a feeling that this person is coming for us. How can we not provoke him? Just wait and see, who knows..."

Before Ling Jiang could finish her words, Captain Zhang yelled at them, "Run! What are you talking about? Do you want to run more?"

Ling Jiang immediately shut up, and the four of them quickened their pace in tacit understanding.

However, the difference between trained people and untrained people is simply incomparable. Even with the spiritual spring water to replenish their physical strength in the middle, the four of them still ran at the end, barely finishing the 20 laps in an hour and a half.

It’s a good thing that there is no need to add circles, and Lan Jin doesn’t dare to have too many extravagant hopes.

But as for Pei Xin, Lan Jin didn't need to count, everyone knew that she hadn't finished the run at all. Not only did she not finish the run, she also returned to the team just in time.

Another girl on the team complained: "Instructor, this girl didn't even finish 20 laps, why did she come back straight away?"

Pei Xin knew she was the one being talked about, so she turned around and glared at the girl, "What's it got to do with you?"

"No, when can we cheat? If you have the ability, join. If you don't, go train next door. Bringing this here will only hinder everyone."

Pei Xin immediately pointed at her and Ling Jiang who were sitting beside her drinking water and said, "What about them? They didn't hold us back."

"I didn't exceed the time and I even ran all 20 laps..."

Before the girl could finish her words, she was interrupted by Brother Zhang, "Shut up, I'm the instructor and you're the instructor, both of you, run two laps as punishment, go."

The girl didn't say anything and went straight to the track to run. Pei Xin glared at Lan Jin and Ling Jiang, and reluctantly walked towards the track.

Brother Zhang shook his head helplessly. They were all troublemakers. Then his eyes turned to Lan Jin and Ling Jiang.

Lan Jin said speechlessly: "Why are you looking at me? I didn't ask her to say that."

"Exactly. This person wasn't there yesterday. Who knows how he got in?"

Brother Zhang scoffed, "You're talking nonsense, and who taught you to talk to the instructor in that tone? You two will be punished by running five laps."

Lan Jin and Ling Jiang said nothing, put down their kettles and returned to the track, bumping head-on into Pei Xin who was not far away.

Seeing that they were also punished, Pei Xin said mockingly: "Humph, you two are nothing special. You are still punished by Captain Zhang."

Lan Jin and Ling Jiang were too lazy to pay attention to this person. They quickened their pace and ran to the front. Amid Pei Xin's anger, they ran together with the girl.

The three of them smiled at each other, and the girl introduced herself, "My name is Shen Zhiyan. I came here from the R City base for special training. I have a twin brother who is also in the team. His name is Shen Zhiyu. I'll introduce him to you later."

"Okay, my name is Lan Jin, and I'm from the H City base."

"My name is Ling Jiang. We're from the same team. There are two other team members resting nearby. I'll introduce them to you later."

Brother Zhang never took his eyes off them. Seeing the three of them running together and chatting, he immediately became angry again, "You seem to be having a good time chatting. Do you remember what I asked you to do? One more lap for me."

Pei Xin finished a lap with great difficulty, and before he could react, he heard that he had to run another lap. For a moment, he didn't know whether he should move or not.

Captain Zhang was already angry when he stuffed Pei Xin in. Seeing that she didn't move, he immediately scolded her, "Run! What are you standing here for?"

Pei Xin had never been treated like this before. Tears of grievance were about to flow out, but she was still obedient, so she could only hold back her tears and run again.

If it were someone else, they might argue, "I didn't chat, why are you punishing me?"

But Pei Xin came here without proper reason, and in his heart he felt inferior to others, so how could he argue?

The people sitting on the side to rest also understood the general idea in their hearts. We were all from the base, so there was nothing we didn't understand about the twists and turns. This must be someone's last resort.

One lap is only 1 kilometer, which is not very long. Shen Zhiyan finished the run in a short while, but seeing that the two people next to him continued to run without leaving the track, he knew that their number of laps was different, and it would not be the end until all the laps were finished.

Because during the time when the two of them returned to the team to rest, Captain Zhang arranged for people to add obstacles to the track in the playground. In other words, in the next period of time, they not only had to run, but also had to pass through obstacles.

Captain Zhang said, "It's almost time. Let's go eat after running 10 laps."
