Chapter 105 Jingyu and the Ghost (1)

Jing Yu does not believe in gods or Buddhas, because when he was most confused and helpless, no soft-hearted god ever came to his aid.

Therefore, compared to any belief, he believes more in his own strength.

But at this moment, looking at what the ghost handed over, Jing Yu was slightly stunned.

He licked his lips first, not sure whether he should accept it, then raised his head to look at the ghost. After seeing him nod at him, Jing Yu wiped the sweat from his hands and then took the jade pendant.

"This was given to me by a hostage who was rescued during a previous mission. She said it would bring good luck and that she hoped it would help me stay safe on every mission."

Jing Yu nodded. He carefully looked at the intricate carving on the jade pendant. There was a tiger painted on it, which was lifelike and very intimidating. It matched the ghost's appearance very well, but it was completely incompatible with his personality.

"Thanks."

Jing Yu said this and put the jade pendant around his neck.

When he put it inside his clothes, it was icy cold and Jing Yu couldn't help shivering.

"Captain Ghost, this thing..."

When Jing Yu raised his head again and wanted to say something to Ghost, Ghost was already arranging tasks with his teammates next to him.

A look of disappointment flashed across his face, Jing Yu lowered his head again and sighed slowly.

People should not be greedy and never want more.

He should be content with having such a jade pendant.

Rubbing his nose, Jingyu lowered his head again and stared at his toes.

And the ghost's toes.

Although Ghost is often on missions, his clothes and shoes are always clean, and have a faint, ordinary smell of laundry detergent.

Jing Yu couldn't help but start thinking back to when he spoke just now. Although he couldn't remember what he said, his voice kept repeating in his mind.

The ghost's voice is really soft.

"All units prepare for landing."

About half an hour later, the helicopter landed at the landing point. After Ghost got off the plane, he walked aside with the deputy captain and talked about something. Jingyu's eyes followed him all the time until the Alpha team members asked everyone to assemble. Only then did Jingyu retract his overly direct gaze.

"Jingyu, what did the ghost give you just now?"

Several people saw the ghost give something to Jingyu. Standing in the team, before the mission started, they couldn't wait to ask.

"A talisman." Jing Yu subconsciously touched his chest.

"Wow, Jingyu, did you know Captain Ghost before?"

"That's right, he's so nice!"

“I want it too!”

know?

Jing Yu's attention was completely attracted by the words of the first comrade.

Yes, I know him.

Jing Yu never uttered his answer because he was worried that people would accuse him of being sentimental after he said it.

After all, it had been several years since he was taken in by Ghost and sent to Ares Academy. From Ghost's words just now, it could be heard that he didn't seem to remember this incident.

A trace of disappointment flashed across his face, but Jing Yu quickly adjusted his mentality.

After all, it is normal for someone like Jingyu, who is busy with all kinds of things, to forget himself.

"Next, we will begin deployment operations. Follow Plan A. All units, pedal!"

The Alpha team members are responsible for organizing the operation, while the Ghost and the vice-captain are responsible for the overall command.

The two of them were in the combat command vehicle, with nothing to do. They smoked cigarettes and started chatting while watching the convoy go away:

"The students this time all did very well. I heard that the first place winner in the graduating group is a man named Jing Yu. Do you remember him?"

Deputy Captain Yan Ji, Yan Ting's father, stretched and asked.

The ghost nodded. "Of course, he is indeed a very good child, but he is a little shy and doesn't seem to like talking much."

"Shy?" It was the first time that Yan Jimin heard such an evaluation of a person from the ghost's mouth, and his eyes widened.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Yan Jimin shrugged. "I thought people like you only praised others for their fighting prowess, but I didn't expect you to talk about other people's personalities. How bizarre."

Giving Yan Jimin a blank look, Ghost returned to the car first: "Let's see how they perform this time. Although there are currently ten people interning at Alpha, only three will stay in the end. Let's choose carefully."

Yan Jimin followed Ghost into the car, saying in a leisurely tone, "If you don't like people who don't talk much, let's get rid of Jingyu first."

With a glare, Ghost said nothing more, staring at Jing Yu's perspective, slowly exhaling a puff of smoke. After watching him calmly deal with an enemy that suddenly appeared, he gave him a rare positive evaluation:

"A pretty calm kid."

"But you dislike me for not talking enough."

"I think you talk too much."

For the first time, Ghost hated Yan Jimin's words so much.

He always felt that something he was trying to hide subtly was being brought out by Yan Jimin's words.

The ghost doesn't like this passive feeling, and even more so, he doesn't like the feeling of having his privacy pried into.

Another three hours passed and the mission was finally completed.

The Alpha team brought back the Ares students. Two of them were injured. Yan Jimin arranged for them to receive treatment, but he also silently drew a "cross" behind their names.

It was just a simple mission and he got injured because of his own mistake. What would happen if he encountered a more dangerous mission?

Jing Yu followed behind the first echelon to count the weapons. He sat cross-legged on the ground, wiping his gun while looking up, intentionally or unintentionally, for the figure of the ghost.

Soon, he saw Ghost communicating with the medical team, and then after signing a form, he walked towards them.

Jing Yu immediately lowered his head and pretended that he saw nothing. He swallowed nervously while changing the magazine.

The ghost's footsteps were getting closer and closer, and Jing Yu even had an illusion that the man was clearly walking towards him.

He took a deep breath and prepared to stand up and greet him.

Soon, another pair of shoes appeared in his sight.

The ghost stopped in front of Jingyu.

"Ghost Team..."

"Captain, this is the mission data for this time. Please review it."

Just as Jingyu was about to stand up, an Alpha team member walked past him from behind and handed a tablet to Ghost.

For a moment, Jing Yu's face turned pale with confusion. He licked his lips nervously, and didn't know whether to stand up or sit back down from his half-squatting position.
