Chapter 55: Running for election? Dimensionality reduction strike!
There was a scream in the car!
Taking advantage of the chaos, Xiaobai slapped the egg pancake on his face, then used the momentum to lunge forward, kicking the back of the seat to fly into the air.
“Click!”
She wrapped her legs around Scarface's neck and threw him into the aisle when she landed.
The explosive pack flew out of his hand and was caught by Xiao An with a diving jump.
Before the remaining four people could react, the vines had already wrapped around their wrists like poisonous snakes.
"Bang!" The only gangster who had time to fire a shot was horrified to find that his bullet was caught in mid-air by the suddenly grown vines.
Thirty seconds later, the five gangsters were tied together with luggage ropes.
Before the passengers could come to their senses, the sound of orderly running was heard outside the car window.
"Listen up, people inside!" the loud speaker blasted in the night, "We are the 7th Steel Company..."
Captain Zhao, who broke in through the window, was stunned on the spot.
He brought a platoon to rescue the hostages, but saw the criminals piled up in the aisle with bruised faces and noses.
There was a girl with a ponytail whipping the criminals with a vine.
"Lin Xiaobai?!"
"Captain Zhao?"
Xiao Bai collected the vines and pretended that they were hidden weapons in his hand: "What a coincidence, I can just take a ride to the army."
Captain Zhao suddenly realized: "You are here to participate in the military district special selection meeting, right? With your skills, you will definitely succeed!"
——
The military district’s competition ground was filled with dust.
When Xiaobai walked into the meeting room holding a fried dough stick in his mouth, Gu Xicheng on the podium almost choked on his tea.
"Who inserted this person with connections?"
Political Commissar Zhou, who was sitting next to Gu Xicheng, frowned, "You're not even wearing a military uniform?"
Captain Zhao, who was in charge of the security, was about to explain when a scream suddenly broke out in the center of the field.
Xiaobai caught the stray bullet that missed the target with one hand, and with a flash of his fingers, the bullet hit the center of the bull's eye a hundred meters away with a "ding" sound.
"The first item is moving target shooting, right?" She picked up an old-fashioned rifle that had been discarded. "How do we calculate the score?"
Before the referee could answer, the gunshot rang out like popcorn.
Xiaobai shot while backing away. The recoil made her ponytail fly, but the bullets seemed to have eyes - holes appeared in the red bull's eyes of the ten moving targets at the same time.
The scoreboard jumped around and finally stopped at 1000 rings - the full score was only 200 rings.
"System failure?" The recorder rubbed his eyes.
"No." Gu Xicheng put down the telescope. "Each of her bullets went through the same bullet hole."
Political Commissar Zhou next to him frowned and knocked on the table.
"Bring up this person's application form. I want to see who recommended him. He has the ability, but he has no discipline!"
"Report!" Captain Zhao handed over the application form with gritted teeth, "I recommended him!"
"Ridiculous! You recommended a girl who has never been to school or served in a military camp to participate in the military competition? Zhao Jianguo, are you accepting bribes from her?!"
"No, no, Political Commissar, listen to me, two days ago, the train was hijacked..."
Zhao Jianguo recounted the scene at that time as well as the testimonies of the carriage staff and passengers at the scene.
I told you everything, without any exaggeration.
But Political Commissar Zhou was still stunned. "Zhao Jianguo, I didn't expect you to be a storyteller! It's a waste of your talent to be a company commander in my company!"
"Don't worry, Lao Zhou. Now that he's here and has shown off his skills, why not wait and see. Don't forget that the purpose of this competition is to 'recruit talents regardless of their background'!"
Of course Gu Xicheng had to speak well of his daughter, but that was all!
How high Xiaobai can go depends on her own ability. He is also looking forward to it!
In the fighting arena, the sturdy man known as the "King of Soldiers in the Southwest" had just taken a stance when vines entangled his ankles and threw him three meters away.
"Next." Xiaobai brushed off the non-existent dust on his hem.
"Wait a minute, contestant Lin Xiaobai, please note that the use of any weapons, including vines, is prohibited in the fighting arena!"
Lin Xiaobai shrugged his shoulders and turned his wrist. With a "whoosh", the vines disappeared into his sleeves without a trace.
"It's strange to use vines as weapons. He is indeed a kid from the mountains."
Political Commissar Zhou had to admit that this kid had some skills.
But these words sounded a little weird to the old father, and they hurt his heart.
"What's wrong with kids from the mountains? How are they any worse than city kids? They all have one nose and two eyes!"
Gu Xicheng gave him a cold look, which surprised Political Commissar Zhou.
"Old Gu, your temper is so unreasonable!
That's not what I meant, please don't misunderstand me.
Besides, I myself was born in the countryside, so how could I look down on the children from the mountains? "
"snort!"
Gu Xicheng continued to watch the game with a long face, not even looking at his old partner - when they were lurking in the enemy camp, Lao Zhou was his superior.
Lao Zhou shook his head and turned his attention back to the fighting arena, this time watching it more seriously than ever before.
"It's a waste of time to come one by one. With me, you can all come together and fight in a group!"
Xiaobai shook his finger, his attitude was too arrogant, how could the passionate men tolerate it!
Seven challengers rushed up in succession, and then flew away in various postures.
The last special forces soldier just grabbed her wrist, and suddenly let go as if he had been electrocuted - the girl cunningly pressed his acupoint!
Fighting, the most time-consuming round-robin competition in history, now the king has arrived and the winner will be decided in one round!
Final assessment: Earthquake rubble rescue.
As soon as the simulation scene was set up, Xiaobai suddenly raised his hand: "Wait."
She walked to the ruins and the vines pierced into the concrete.
He closed his eyes for three seconds and then opened them: "There are three dummies buried in the southeast corner, 2.4 meters deep, and one of the 'injured' has a steel bar piercing his left leg."
The technician's face turned pale after checking the data: "It's all correct...but she didn't even look at the layout!"
As soon as the countdown began, Xiaobai disappeared in the smoke.
While other contestants were still analyzing the structure, the entire ruins suddenly "came alive" - the broken floor slabs were held up by vines, and the twisted steel bars automatically separated the passage.
Twenty-eight seconds later, the three dummies were lying safely on the stretcher, and even the steel bars with "penetrating wounds" had been melted off.
"This is not a rescue..." Political Commissar Zhou took a sip of tea to calm himself down, "This is a strange folk magic trick!"
Lin Xiaobai finally won the championship with an overwhelming victory!
The sun was glaring on the podium.
Gu Xicheng stood in front of Xiaobai, holding the golden second lieutenant's epaulettes in his hand.
His fingertips trembled slightly - this girl was only eighteen years old, but she could already destroy the combat effectiveness of a reinforced company with her bare hands.
"With special approval from the Military Commission..." He spoke in a loud voice, paused deliberately, and swept his eyes across the faces of those in the audience who were either shocked or in admiration.
"Comrade Lin Xiaobai is awarded the rank of second lieutenant as an exception! He will be assigned to the 'Thunder' special operations team!"
There was thunderous applause. Xiaobai was fiddling with his new officer ID when he suddenly felt someone staring at him fiercely.
Turning around, I saw a woman in military uniform in the last row of the audience hurriedly lowering her head, and the jade pendant around her neck flashed a strange red light.
The pattern on that jade pendant...is exactly the same as the one in my mother’s posthumous photo!
Xiaobai's eyes turned, and a small leaf quietly floated into her pocket.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" Gu Xicheng keenly noticed her distraction and asked in a low voice.
Xiao Bai retracted his gaze and suddenly grinned, his fangs flashing cunningly in the sun: "Chief Gu, I heard that you are the highest-ranking official here?"
Gu Xicheng raised his eyebrows: "So?"
"I have a request—" Her voice was not loud, but every word was clear, "I want to be an instructor and form my own team!"
The whole audience fell silent.
Gu Xicheng narrowed his eyes and looked at the girl in front of him with her chin raised.
There was a fire burning in her eyes, as if to say that what she just said was not a request, but a declaration!
