Chapter 199 Gu Yin is punished
When they arrived at the playground, it was already packed with people.
"Where is our homeroom teacher? Can you see her?" Because everyone was wearing the same clothes, they had no idea where their class was. Luckily, the homeroom teacher had mentioned before that the place where she was standing was where their class was.
Gu Yin looked around and finally spotted Wang Xiaoli in the middle.
"It's over there, let's go!" Gu Yin led the group toward that direction.
Seeing Zhou Meng approach, Wang Xiaoli handed her the small flag in her hand: "Take off your hat first, stand here and wait for the other students. The teacher is leaving now, teachers are not allowed here." After saying that, she hurriedly left the football field.
The sun was already up, but it wasn't very hot yet. Xiao Se looked at Gu Yin and asked, "Would you like to sit down?"
Gu Yin shook her head. She came from the countryside and was in good physical condition, so this level of popularity was alright.
Seeing that she didn't sit down, Xiao Se stood in Gu Yin's shadow, squatted down, and then pulled Wan Qing over to help block her.
Xiao Se is not in good physical condition and suffers from hypoglycemia. She is worried that she will not be able to endure this military training. Her family asked her to go to the hospital to get a note to ask for leave, but she refused. She will persevere as long as she can.
Seeing this, Zhou Meng also stood up and used the hat in her hand to fan her.
At 8:00 sharp, an instructor jogged in from the entrance and stopped at the podium. He was probably a squad leader or some other officer who spoke to them. Five minutes later, the group dispersed and went to their respective classes.
Seeing an instructor run over to them, Xiao Se stood up.
"Is this Class 1 of Aoyama?"
Zhou Meng nodded: "Yes, Instructor!"
The person nodded: "You may leave."
Then they started organizing the class. Gu Yin was relatively tall for her age, so she and Wan Qing were placed in the last row.
After everyone was lined up, the instructor began to organize the ranks: "From now on, stand in your current positions! Remember who's next to you, don't stand in the wrong place! Here you are, attention! At ease! Attention!"
The morning consisted mainly of standing at attention, standing at ease, and turning in place, so it was relatively easy.
In the afternoon, after reviewing the morning's movements, we began to stand at attention.
In September, under the blazing sun in Wuhan, the smell of plastic from the running track became even stronger and more pungent.
It was very quiet around us; it seemed like the entire football field was filled with people standing at attention.
Xiao Se stood to Gu Yin's left front, a distance between them. Gu Yin glanced at him every now and then, and seeing that he was alright, she continued to stare at the back of the classmate's head.
In ten minutes, the students in the formation started to sway and stagger, even after less than five minutes of standing at attention and maintaining leg raises while marching.
Seeing this, the instructor immediately walked past them, shouting in a booming voice, "Don't move! Anyone whose foot touches the ground will have ten minutes added to their time! The whole team will have five minutes added! If two people touch the ground, the whole team will have ten minutes added! And so on! Anyone who wants to offend everyone, then try touching the ground!"
Upon hearing this, the crowd, who had been crooked and swaying, immediately straightened up, lifting their feet off the ground.
After standing for about 20 minutes, the instructors told everyone to rest for five minutes, and then switch to the other leg.
It was past 2 PM, and the sun was so strong that some students from the neighboring classes couldn't stand it and collapsed.
This was the first time anyone had seen anything like this, and everyone panicked. The students in Class 1 of Qingyi also started to commotion.
"What are you looking at! What are you yelling about! Don't you understand the word 'quiet'?! Add ten minutes!"
The crowd, who had been curious, immediately fell silent.
Gu Yin couldn't help but smile as she watched them act like little chicks, sometimes yelling and sometimes cowering.
"Is it funny? Come out and tell everyone what's so funny!"
Before Gu Yin could even finish her smile, the instructor's roar rang in her ears.
Gu Yin blinked and immediately shouted, "Report! I'm not laughing! My throat is too dry! I'm swallowing!" After saying that, she swallowed hard in front of the instructor to prove that she really wasn't laughing.
Instructor: "...Step forward!" What kind of decorum is this!
Gu Yin stepped forward.
"Facing the students! Marching step, lift your leg!"
When Chu Yan and the student council members brought the water over, they happened to see Gu Yin being pulled out to stand at attention.
"Hello, instructor. We are students from the student council. The school arranged for us to distribute water." Chu Yan pushed the water over and greeted the instructor.
The instructor knew about this, nodded, and looked at Gu Yin: "Go pour the water, and drink last!" Serves you right for lying!
Gu Yin had no objection. She walked over and glanced at Chu Yan, then began to pour water in a proper manner. After the students came over, she handed the water to them.
The bucket of water was a bit heavy, and it was difficult to pour with one hand. Chu Yan stepped forward and said in a low voice, "You take the cup, I'll pour it. That way it'll be faster, otherwise the students will have to wait too long."
Gu Yin nodded and was about to put the bucket down when the instructor walked over, looked at Chu Yan, then at Gu Yin, and said sternly, "What did I just say! Repeat it again!"
Gu Yin looked up at him and said loudly, "I'll pour the water, and I'll be the last one to drink!"
The instructor nodded, then looked at Chu Yan: "Did you understand? Still want to play the hero and save the damsel in distress?"
Chu Yan looked at him quietly, then stood up and stood to the side without moving.
Zhou Meng and her two companions, who had originally intended to come and help, dared not move and told the remaining students to line up and get their cups on their own.
After everyone had taken their water, Chu Yan poured a cup for Gu Yin, then, without even glancing at the instructor, grabbed the bucket and left.
The drill instructor, who hadn't even had a drink of water yet, exclaimed: "...!!"
Gu Yin was also stunned. When she saw the instructor looking at her, she immediately drank all the water in her cup in one gulp.
Instructor: "...!!" What does that mean?! What does it mean? Does she think I'd steal her water?!
