Chapter 17 Why Are You Blushing? (Part 3)



In this way, the two of them slept in the same sleeping bag all night without realizing it.

The next morning, before the sun had risen over the hillside, the extremely disciplined Xila had already opened her eyes early. However, her face was as red as the sunset, and she was like a rusty machine, unable to move.

[Ahhhhhhh~ Why is the commander in chief in the same sleeping bag with me?! What the heck is going on here?!] Xila just wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Xila's head was filled with the words, "What should I do? What should I do? What should I do? What~! What~! What~! What~! Ahhhhhhhhh"

[Could it be that the commander is actually a pervert who appears to be a gentleman but is actually a beast? While I was asleep, he wanted to do something to me...]

[No, no, no, this doesn't make sense no matter how I think about it. My clothes are all on and I don't feel anything wrong. Maybe I was too sleepy last night and got into the wrong bed???]

Thinking of this, Xila quietly stuck her head out, took a look at the sleeping bag style, and suddenly felt unwell. She immediately retracted her head and her face became even redder.

[How embarrassing! I slept in my sleeping bag with my superior! What the hell is going on? Why did my superior get into my bed?! Wait, wait, wait, last night during my shift change, I felt something bump into me as soon as I got into bed. Could it be that...?]

Maybe today might be the day that Xila finds it difficult to talk about something?

“Hu…Hu…”

Just as the storm march was playing in Xila's mind, Wu Jie's gentle breathing sound came into Xila's ears, pulling Xila back to reality.

The distance between the two was so close that they were almost breathing face to face.

"So close..." Xila looked at Wu Jie's face and said softly.

Wu Jie slept very soundly today because he did not get enough rest yesterday. Xila's voice did not wake him up.

[This is the first time I have looked at the commander from such a close distance. He looks so cute when he is sleeping, like a big boy. Poof~] Xila looked at Wu Jie's sleeping face and slowly calmed down, no longer brainstorming.

[I wonder if I can give my boss a hug...] Thinking this, Xila gently stretched out her hand. Just when she was about to hug Wu Jie, Wu Jie frowned sleepily.

"Ahhh~, is he going to wake up? What should I do? What should I do? What should I do? What~ should I do?!"

Suddenly, the two looked at each other and screamed at the same time.

“Ah~~~~!”

Now everyone else was awakened.

"What's going on! Is this an enemy attack?" The first one to be alarmed was Minian.

"Bao~baozi~hehe, I love to eat them the most..." But Cecilia just turned over and continued to eat the big meal in her dream. The huge screams could not alarm her. She was really thick-skinned.

"What's going on? Is Auroramon coming?!" The next ones to wake up were Boa and Weiya. Phoebe was on her last shift, so she was not at the rest stop.

After everyone was alert, they found the source of the scream.

"Come to think of it, sir, why are you sleeping in the same bunk with the captain? Could it be the two of you?!" Boya reacted, then looked at the two of them with ambiguous eyes and laughed.

Wu Jie was about to explain something, but Xila was quicker than him: "We didn't do anything, Bo Ya, don't let your imagination run wild!"

"Huh? Captain, aren't you trying to cover up the truth? The way you and your superiors are acting now is not very convincing." Boya didn't buy it at all.

As the two were talking, Wei Ye scratched his head and said, "Why is Cecia sleeping in the commander's sleeping bag?"

Wu Jie keenly grasped the timing of this sentence and quickly said, "After handing over the shift last night, I came back and saw Cecilia sleeping in my sleeping bag. I was forced to choose one of the remaining two sleeping bags..."

Xila also said quickly: "Yes! It must be like this: the commander accidentally entered my sleeping bag last night. After I came back from my shift, I didn't notice there was someone in the sleeping bag, and ended up sleeping with the commander by mistake. That must be it!"

After hearing this, Bo Ya said with disappointment, "What? I see! I was so excited for nothing. I thought you and the commander were making rapid progress."

When Xila heard this, her face immediately turned red: "Boya~!"

"Hehe~ Stop tickling me! I'll hide!"

--------Dividing line--------

Everyone headed towards the power plant. According to Wu Jie's plan, Cecia and Boa would first conduct scouting from the perimeter to determine the number, type, and deployment of the Aurora beasts. Afterward, Xila, Wei Ye, and Minnian would seize the dormitory as a temporary fortress, while Phoebe and Wu Jie would provide remote support from the flanks in a ruined area across the river.

After the plan was finalized, Cecia and Boa quickly advanced towards the power plant, while maintaining wireless contact with Wu Jie at all times, with regular contact every three minutes.

"There are eight insect-like Aurora Beasts on the roof of the power plant, twenty-three visible target Aurora Beasts on the western periphery of the plant, and non-intelligent wingless octopus Aurora Beasts." Cesia, who arrived at the west side first, sent back a report.

At the same time, Boa also reported her reconnaissance data.

"Reporting to the commander, twenty wingless, non-intelligent octopus Auroramon are visible on the east wall, and ten wingless, intelligent ape Auroramon are visible on the north wall."

Wu Jie frowned. My goodness, the number of Aurora Beasts here is almost as large as a column, and these are the currently visible targets. It is not clear what the situation is inside the power plant. It will be bad if you stir up a hornet's nest.

"Commander, the number is not good. It may be difficult for us to take it down with our own strength. Should we call for reinforcements?" As the captain, Xila's opinion is very important.

Wu Jie did not reply immediately, but calmed down and carefully thought about all the countermeasures.

Xila, who was waiting for Wu Jie's answer, was fascinated by his superior for a moment. For some reason, he suddenly remembered Wu Jie's sleeping face this morning, and his face turned red unconsciously.

"Xila, let me ask you a question."

"Hmm? Sila? Sila?"

Suddenly, a voice in reality brought Xila back to reality. She just wanted to find a hole to crawl into. "Oh my god, I was actually daydreaming in front of my superiors. What am I doing?!"

"Yes, I'm sorry, sir. Please go ahead." Xila responded with regret. Now she really wanted to slap herself in the face.

"If I remember correctly, the power plant should have a central refrigeration control system for emergency use, right? It's a system specially designed to deal with power failures." Wu Jie was not very familiar with the equipment in the power plant, so he needed to ask Xila or other team members for their opinions, in case someone knew about it.
