"What do you mean by yours or theirs? From now on, they belong to us." Gua Er smiled and patted Shi Jin on the shoulder, "Xiao Jin Jin, you have to believe Gua San. We are really doing a serious business."
Shi Jin was not happy and asked with gritted teeth, "Then you say, are all the mangoes in our trucks really loaded with mangoes?"
"Well..." Gua Er took back his hand and asked caringly, "Xiao Jin Jin, are you tired? Do you need to change shifts?"
This way of changing the subject was too careless!
Shi Jin ignored him, stepped on the accelerator, and closed the distance with the car in front.
In the early morning, the convoy left the small road and drove towards the depths of the dense forest along a road that was obviously cleared temporarily. Shi Jin did not have enough driving experience and believed that he could not stabilize the tonnage of the large truck in the dense forest with poor road conditions. He was very self-aware and took the initiative to change positions with Gua Er.
After driving for another hour in such a zigzag manner, the convoy finally arrived at the destination of this delivery - a hidden village built deep in the dense forest.
Gua Er got off the car and spoke a few words to a short and thin man guarding the entrance of the village. The short and thin man nodded, took out a whistle and blew it, and then a large group of men in camouflage uniforms came out from various hiding places in the village, and went to the truck to unload the goods without being called.
Shi Jin observed those men and found that there was a shadow of military in their gestures. His heart skipped a beat and he retracted his mind with interest - dense forest, unknown goods, interception on the way, suspected military consignees, Gua Er's delivery mission this time was obviously not easy, so it was better for him to play dumb, but he couldn't annoy people because of his excessive curiosity.
Gua Er noticed Shi Jin's movements from the corner of his eye, and his smile deepened.
The consignee unloaded the goods quickly, and metal boxes painted with dark green paint were transported into the village one after another. In less than a quarter of an hour, the truck was completely empty. Gua Er said hello to the short and thin man and returned to the car.
"Are you sleepy?" Gua Er asked after closing the car door.
Shi Jin nodded: "
I'm sleepy." "Then go to sleep." Gua Er started the truck and took another cigarette, but still didn't light it. "When you wake up, do it for me."
Shi Jin nodded again, glanced at the village hidden in the night ahead, leaned back in the chair, and said: "If you want to smoke, smoke. I'm more afraid of you driving the car into the ditch when you're tired than inhaling a few puffs of second-hand smoke."
Gua Er laughed and scolded: "You're the one who drives the car into the ditch." As he said that, he took out a lighter and lit the cigarette.
...
Another day of high-speed driving, the next morning, the convoy returned to the orchard safely. Shi Jin
spent two days in the car, and he couldn't eat or sleep well. When he got off the car, he was already in a half-dead state. He was almost dragged back to the dormitory by Gua Er, and fell asleep as soon as he touched the bed.
Shi Jin slept very deeply this time. When he woke up, it was already noon the next day. He was so hungry that he kept growling.
There was a cafeteria in the dormitory building. Shi Jin washed up and walked over. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Gua Er eating noodles at the table near the door. He took the initiative to walk over.
Gua Er also saw him and waved to him with a smile.
Shi Jin sat opposite Gua Er and looked at his energetic appearance, and said in a weak voice: "Why are you in such good spirits?"
"You are in very bad spirits. You don't look like a young man at all." Gua Er asked the cafeteria chef to serve Shi Jin a bowl of noodles. He looked up and down at Shi Jin's body shape, clicked his tongue and shook his head, "Although you are chubby and cute now, your physical fitness is really too poor. It will hold you back at the critical moment. You need to exercise." Shi Jin
touched his belly, which was two sizes smaller than the beginning, and knew that his physical strength was indeed a big problem. Thinking of his eight-pack abdominal muscles in his previous life, he picked up the chopsticks and rolled up the noodles, and said fiercely: "Okay, then exercise!" He had almost lost all the weight, and it was really time to exercise.
Gua Er raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect him to be so straightforward. He said with admiration, "It's good that you are determined. Let's start now. The mango orchard is on the hill farthest from the dormitory. After breakfast, go there and run around the mango orchard ten times."
With a click, the noodles that Shi Jin had just picked up slipped into the bowl, splashing his hand with soup.
...
Good physical strength and a good figure cannot be cultivated in a day or two. Shi Jin gritted his teeth and ran up and down the mountain every day without supervision. He quickly lost weight and grew a little taller, but his clothes changed to a smaller size.
Gua Er leaned against the wall of the monitoring room, watching Shi Jin running from one screen to another, and sighed: "I have never seen such a high-quality newcomer, self-aware and hardworking, with strong observation ability, crisis awareness, strong psychological quality, obedient, not asking questions that should not be asked, not looking at things that should not be looked at, not conceited, and knowing his limits... If I didn't know his background, I would have thought he was a military academy cadet who slipped out from somewhere."
Lian Jun also looked at the monitoring screen and asked: "Have you asked everything I asked you to ask?"
"I found out after asking around." Gua Er answered, and he didn't know what he was thinking of, but a strange expression appeared on his face, as if he was about to laugh or not. "It was indeed a coincidence that he sneaked into our contact point and lived in the cabin on the mountainside. According to him, when he first arrived in Y Province, he was so poor that he didn't even have money to stay in a hotel. After asking around for a long time, he found out that there was a small park outside ours that did not require a ticket to enter, so he went there to spend the night. While wandering around, his sharp eyes saw the house on the mountainside."
He saw the mountainside from the park. His eyes were indeed sharp enough.
Lian Jun moved his hand on the wheelchair armrest and said, "Go on."
Gua Er suppressed his laughter and continued, "As for the mahjong parlor, it was because he was underage, had no education, and couldn't find any job. He thought he was good at mahjong, so he decided to try his luck in the mahjong parlor. The big mahjong parlors are strictly managed, and he was afraid that the boss would not let him work in the parlor. After a field investigation, he finally chose our mahjong parlor, which seemed to have a particularly loose management.
"Then he was hanging around outside our base..." Gua Er
finally laughed out loud and replied, "He was attracted by the chickens we raised in the mountains. I heard that he had a pot of chicken soup in his room the day Gua Si went to catch him." Even Gua San, who was calm, couldn't help but want to laugh when he heard it. He opened his mouth and finally sighed, "Then he and we really have some fate." "Who said it was
n't
? He was also unlucky." Gua Er remembered the resentful look on Shi Jin's face when he talked about these things, and he couldn't stop laughing.
Lian Jun's mouth corners also curled slightly, but the arc was very shallow and no one noticed. He stopped looking at the surveillance screen, turned around in his wheelchair, and ordered: "When his physical strength reaches the standard, let Guayi teach him shooting and fighting, and bring him to see me when he is ready."
Let Guayi teach? Guayi hasn't trained a newcomer for a long time.
Guaer and Guasan looked at each other, nodded, and responded respectfully.
On the mountain, Shi Jin stopped with sweat all over his face, and with his hands on his knees, he glanced at the progress bar in his mind which had suddenly dropped back to 700, wondering: "Why did it drop suddenly?" After he came back from delivering the goods last time, his progress bar slowly dropped from almost full to 720, maintaining the value it stayed at after he finished talking to Shi Weichong on the phone. Although it dropped a few points during this period due to his changes in body shape, it was always above 710.
Xiao Si was also confused and guessed, "Could it be Shi Wei Chong's place? Didn't you call him to remind him about his assistant?" Shi
Jin thought about it, wiped his sweat, and replied, "Maybe, forget it, let's keep running, today's mission is not completed yet." In a blink of
an eye, a month passed. During this month, Shi Jin insisted on running in the mountains every day. He lost weight, became taller, and gradually became familiar with everyone in the dormitory. He followed Gua Er to run "Mango" several more times. Each time he went to a different place, but he never went to such a remote place as the first time, and he never encountered danger again.
Now he has completely lost the look he had when he was just reborn. His once delicately permed and dyed flower boy-style curly hair has become neat black straight short hair. His fair skin has been tanned into a wheat color. Without the pressure of fat, his facial features have become clear and three-dimensional, with handsome eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, and he is particularly pleasing when he smiles.
Gua Er was stunned. He didn't expect Shi Jin to look like a young boy. He always teased him that his smile was milky.
After his appearance completely changed, Shi Jin's progress bar dropped to 690, which has already entered the safety line. Lian Jun's progress bar also strangely stopped rising, and even after his stomach was healed, it slowly returned to 600.
Shi Jin was a little confused about this, until he heard Gua San accidentally mention that Gua Si and Gua Yi were on a mission together and were not in the orchard, then he figured out why Lian Jun's progress bar was stagnant.
He tried to ask Gua Er and Gua San about Gua Si, but they were both shrewd and tight-lipped. He was afraid that asking too much would arouse suspicion, so he only got some very superficial information, which was of no use.
In this way, the days suddenly became stable and leisurely, and even had a sense of peace and tranquility, but obviously, this peace and tranquility was just an illusion. As long as the progress bar did not disappear, stability would disappear like a flower in the mirror or a moon in the water.
One morning, Shi Jin was suddenly awakened from his dream by Xiao Si, who said in an anxious tone: "Jin Jin, wake up! The progress bar suddenly started to rise, both yours and your baby's! Yours has risen to 700, and your baby's has risen to 750, and it is still rising. There must be something wrong!" Shi
Jin's heart sank, and his sleepiness disappeared. He jumped out of bed and walked to the window to take a look outside. He noticed that there seemed to be car lights shaking in the direction of the orchard gate. He quickly put on his clothes and went out, but he ran into Gua Er, who was holding a mobile phone from the opposite door.
"What's wrong?" Shi Jin saw that Gua Er looked unhappy, and asked hurriedly.
Gua Er frowned and said in short: "There's news from the door. Gua Yi and Gua Si are back. Gua Yi is injured and has been unconscious. I'll go and see him."
Gua Si is back?!
Shi Jin's heart tightened. He glanced at the two progress bars that were still rising in his mind and said, "I'll go with you."
Gua Er nodded and didn't delay any longer. He made a phone call to the infirmary and walked out quickly.
