Facing Jiang Ning's concern, Gu Tinglin's smile became even brighter.

Perhaps sensing his easygoing and good intentions, Jiang Ning inexplicably added, "Don't take it lightly. Only with a good body can you better serve the country and the people."

To be honest, she admired such a person who dedicated his whole life to the country.

Such a large base is equivalent to a county city, and not everyone can carry it on their shoulders.

There are not many people that Jiang Ning can admire, such as He Tianming, Ma Guangnian, Professor Li, and...

since he can manage the base so well, he should also be considered one.

Gu Tinglin nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Uh... there seemed to be something strange about this, but Jiang Ning couldn't figure it out for a while, so she opened the door and left.

Outside the door, Huo Yishen and the two were intact, and she was relieved.

Secretary He sent a few people downstairs, and the instructor of the submarine team was already waiting. He drove away with three people and a dog.

He returned to the upstairs and found Gu Tinglin standing by the window, watching Jiang Ning and others gradually go away.

An important meeting was held, and the secretary did not forget to remind him and reported on the leader's personal affairs at the same time, "Commander, my wife just contacted me and asked about your health."

Gu Tinglin thought for a moment, "Just asking about my health?"

"My wife said that the weather has been abnormal recently and she was worried that you didn't have enough clothes to change into. She wanted to send a few sets over, but was afraid of disturbing your work."

"What did you say?"

"I said that Commander, you are in a meeting and will be inspecting military factories later, and I have to meet with and commend scavengers on your behalf. If family members do not apply in advance, they cannot enter important military areas."

Gu Tinglin said nothing more, turned around and left the office to attend the meeting.

Thinking of what Jiang Ning said, he opened his mouth and ordered, "Help me make an appointment with a doctor for a physical examination."

Secretary He was surprised. The chief shouldered a heavy responsibility and worked hard, and his body was full of problems. He would remind him to check every once in a while, but the chief was always too busy to do anything, and he could only let the hospital do nothing.

Now he actually took the initiative to retrieve it. The sun really rose from the west.

Secretary He was very excited, "I will arrange it immediately."

...

The submarine group is located in the deep-sea port, and it takes half an hour to get there by assault boat.

Jiang Ning wore a life jacket and held the dog on the sea to ride the wind and waves.

The motor of the assault boat was very loud. Seeing that the instructor was concentrating on driving the assault boat, she leaned over to Huo Yishen's ear and whispered, "What did Chief Gu ask you?"

"In addition to verbal praise, he asked where the rare metals were found and whether he could provide more."

The two had already made up an excuse, saying that all their assets were stolen from others.

As for how many people had stolen the property, according to the rules of buying and selling on the street, it was not allowed to ask. Huo Yishen said that he had taken everything from the other party.

Jiang Ning frowned, "Didn't he ask about your past?"

"Yes, about your family, upbringing, and past."

However, Gu Tinglin said something very strange, saying that he and Jiang Ning looked like a couple, and hoped that the two could continue to work together in the end times.

Huo Yishen was also asked, which made Jiang Ning feel a little relieved, but she still felt something was wrong, "He asked me if I was interested in joining the army, and after I refused, he still gave me his contact information."

If someone else said it was confusing, they could explain that they were driven crazy by the natural disaster.

But why would a military commander say such a strange thing? Even if he was approachable, he wouldn't be like this.

Jiang Ning felt that Gu Tinglin was still suspicious, and the reason he was asking about her well-being and trying to get close to her was just to trick her into killing him.

But he was a man who had experienced a lot of storms, and the emotions he showed were also very sincere. Unfortunately, the script was too poor and it was easy to be exposed.

Jiang Ning's mind was full of doubts, but with the submarine instructor present, the two of them were not convenient to communicate too much.

In the distance, the deep sea area dock appeared, and there were vaguely dozens of submarines emerging from the water, like gray-black lumpy monsters.

Only a few dozen submarines can be seen with the naked eye, but in fact, the entire sea is densely packed with submarines.

Medium-sized military submarines are still quite large in size, about 50 meters long and about 10 meters wide.

Instructor Xu called his assistant to introduce the appearance, function, power and other basic information of the submarine to Jiang Ning and others.

According to regulations, dogs are not allowed to enter submarines. After all, pets love to make trouble. In the event of a disaster, they are easily frightened and out of control. If they touch the control buttons, it will be troublesome.

Jiang Ning insisted, "It's okay. We trained it as a military dog ​​these years. When it first entered the base, it was almost kidnapped by the dog training team."

Instructor Xu was reminding her voluntarily. Seeing her insistence, he did not object. After all, Party A was the father, and the leader had specially taken care of him.

People have to be responsible for their own choices. If she said it was okay, then it was okay.

The door opened, and Instructor Xu led everyone to climb down the ladder.

The submarine looks big, but in fact a lot of the volume is occupied by internal equipment. The actual control cabin is only about 30 square meters. There are also two lounges, a food preparation room, a logistics room, and a bathroom.

It is quite spacious for three people and a dog, but it seems crowded for ten people.

But in special times, being able to turn a submarine into an indestructible steel behemoth and riveting a "spark box" that condenses human wisdom is already a miracle of invention and manufacturing, so why would you need a bicycle?

Jiang Ning has read the instructions and has no complaints about the nuclear fuel kinetic energy of the submarine.

Deep-sea diving is no joke. Instructor Xu teaches from the most basic operations...

Professional terminology is involved, and you can't learn it in one or two days, just memorize it.

The instructor team has taught countless students and has long summarized the most concise and easy-to-use methods, and Jiang Ning and Huo Yishen have good comprehension abilities.

Doudou has not neglected his studies in the past few years, but his brother and sister-in-law only taught the basics, and forget about the profound physics and chemistry.

So, she had a hard time listening, but she had a good memory and a bad pen.

The dog was in trouble. He squatted on the ground with his eyes wide open, and even though he tilted his head to think from time to time, he really couldn't understand.

He persisted stubbornly for two hours, and then fell to the ground and fell asleep.

A week of training has been compressed to the point where it cannot be simplified. Except for sleeping, eating, and going to the toilet, the rest of the time is spent studying.

They didn't even think about going back and forth to the living area every day, everything was done in the submarine.

"Time is precious. The submarine needs to consume a lot of kinetic energy when it goes up and down, dives, or goes out to sea, and our nuclear fuel is in short supply, so it must not be wasted."

After teaching the theory and operation, Instructor Xu asked the three to practice repeatedly, "If you don't understand something, you can ask at any time. The more you practice, the more you will know it by heart."

Jiang Ning felt like he was dreaming back to the classroom, with the urgency of three years of college entrance examinations and five years of simulations.

The three people and the dog lived in the submarine. The room was a simple iron bunk bed with upper and lower bunks, which was welded to the hull for stability.

They had one room, and Instructor Xu and his assistant had another.

Jiang Ning didn't bring much stuff with him because he didn't notify them in advance that he would live in the submarine, but fortunately he was used to carrying a large backpack when he went out.

She and Huo Yishen both had large backpacks to hide their identities, so it was no problem to take some clothes from them.

But they didn't expect that Instructor Xu would cook noodles and let them eat over there...
