Hunting Game [Interstellar]

Chapter 18 [Reasons for being out]

Then the two separated and went in different directions.

It was already past noon when we returned to the garrison base. Knowing to avoid suspicion, Su Shichuan deliberately entered from a weak corner of the sentry over the wall, bypassing all the monitoring, and went back to the temporary dormitory silently.

The resting place provided by the base officers is an independent two-story building, which is located in the innermost and cleanest position of the entire base. The exterior is painted with uniform snow, and the interior is clean and tidy. The conference hall, reception hall and monitoring room are isolated.

In addition to Aning, the entourage of this additional test included seven people seconded by Su Shichuan from Kang Na. At this time, all staff should be on duty to monitor the movements of the newcomers.

After Su Shichuan entered the room, he took a quick shower and changed back into his military uniform. Instead of going downstairs to the monitoring room, he sent a message to Aning alone and called him up.

After a while, there was a knock on the door.

Su Shichuan stared at the tracking spot with the name and coordinates displayed on the optical brain screen, and replied lightly: "Please come in."

With permission, Aning opened the door and came in, putting a cup of freshly brewed black tea by the head teacher's hand.He was not in a hurry to speak, and looked around the room inadvertently, noticing that the sled dogs hadn't come back.Aning knew what to ask and what not to ask, so he looked back at the head teacher very low-key, and said with a smile: "The conditions of the base are poor, how is the rest of the teacher?"

"It's okay," Su Shichuan said politely, "Thank you for your hard work."

As the invigilator of the additional test, the people in the monitoring room must not be able to close their eyes.

"It's nothing to stay up for a few days, I'm used to it." Ah Ning didn't sleep all night, his face showed no signs of fatigue, and his emerald eyes were still full of energy. After speaking, he quietly stared at Su Shichuan, waiting to hear The next order.

Su Shichuan picked up his teacup to drink tea, and casually clicked on a light spot on the screen to check the real situation.

It was a boy who acted alone. The remarks showed that he had obtained a pager, and now he was hiding behind a bush with his dagger half exposed, preparing to ambush a young girl whose back was turned to him to fetch water.But the most interesting thing is that the note next to the girl shows that she has six callers installed on her body!

It was less than 24 hours since the start of the additional test, and it was self-evident what it meant to win five pagers.

Su Shichuan frowned slightly, adjusted the main perspective, and switched the screen to the front of the girl.

The posture of her squatting down to fetch water is very professional. Only one weight-bearing leg is bent, and her back is naturally bowed. At first glance, she looks unguarded, but in fact, every part is ready to go.

Obviously, she knew that there was an overreaching guy behind her.

"Who is this person?" Su Shichuan asked.

"I'm going to report to you." Aning said while turning on the optical brain, laying it flat and pushing it in front of Su Shichuan.

There is a table showing real-time data changes on the screen, which records the situation of each freshman in detail, arranged from top to bottom according to the number of pagers held, and the names of those who have been eliminated are grayed out and placed at the bottom.

Su Shichuan noticed that the first-ranked freshman had a very special name, Ji Yue, and didn't seem to have a last name.

Aning raised his wrist to look at the communicator, and said: "As of the last hour, according to the latest statistics, 18 people have been eliminated. This number is much higher than we originally expected, which shows that the quality of the newcomers is really good. Teacher Su , you cut off most of them at once, it’s really a bit cheaper than other majors.”

He mentioned a decision to hide from the freshmen before, that is, those who failed the additional test will not be sent home, but will be transferred to other majors in the same class after referring to their personal wishes.

"What can be kept is always the best, and we don't lose money." Su Shichuan said.

"That's true." Aning smiled and continued, "Three of the 18 people who were eliminated were said to have been attacked by wild animals, and the whereabouts of the calling devices were unknown. They were rescued by the proctors based on the tracking and location. Scattered in the hands of six newcomers, the girl you saw is called Ji Yue, and she is currently the person with the most pagers."

Hearing this, Su Shichuan looked up at him, and said with a half-smile, "It looks good?"

"It's especially good at fighting." Aning said with sincere emotion, "She didn't rest all night, she walked across hundreds of kilometers of woodland areas on foot, attacked five groups at night, and even killed a few wolves that went out to hunt. Are you I didn’t see that, those wolves died so badly.” Speaking of this, Aning couldn’t help but shook his head, and his eyes fell back to the live surveillance screen, “I investigated this girl’s background without authorization, and found that she came from an old church in the outskirts of the imperial capital. Looks like a child adopted by the nuns there."

Su Shichuan gave a flat "hmm" and ordered: "When you are free, go and check those nuns to see what they believe, and they can cultivate newcomers with such skills."

"Yes." Aning leaned towards Su Shichuan, rolled his eyes slightly, trying to figure out the other party's deep meaning, and asked tentatively, "Do you think this person can't stay?"

"The skills are good, but the scheming is too shallow." The two newcomers in the screen have already fought each other, Su Shichuan turned off the surveillance, and said simply, "When the additional test is over, I recommend you to the Marine Corps, she is suitable there."

Ah Ning nodded, after a while of silence, he asked again: "Then the pager in her hand?"

The question was cryptic, and the translated meaning was, how do you plan to get her out?

Su Xingchuan did not answer directly, but took out three pagers and put them on the table, saying: "The wild is very uncertain, newcomers are often attacked by wild animals, and there will always be times when they are unlucky."

Aning stared at the three pagers that should have been "unknown", and said knowingly: "You are right."

The beast running through the forest was extremely efficient. Before evening, the newcomer named Ji Yue was brought back to the garrison base by the invigilator.

As the chief instructor, Su Shichuan rarely greeted him in person, and met the little girl in front of the student dormitory provided by the base.Aning followed him, because he knew the result in advance, so he paid attention to the situation of Jiyue all afternoon. Naturally, he witnessed the whole process of her being attacked by the gray wolf in the snow.

A total of five people were disqualified this time. Compared with the other four downcast rookies, Ji Yue's calmness easily made her stand out, appearing too rational and mature.

Her appearance was not stunning, with black hair and black eyes, and regular facial features, but she had no obvious features. From the perspective of an agent, this was a face that was very suitable for disguise.Her stature is slightly taller than that of ordinary women, more than 1.7 meters by visual inspection, which means that she is also suitable for transgender and disguise, and she is a rookie with excellent skills and conditions.

Su Shichuan looked at her twice more, and then came to a conclusion objectively.

The meeting time was limited, Su Shichuan was silent the whole time, Aning said some words of comfort and cutscenes, and then announced the hidden result that he could choose another major.

This is undoubtedly good news for those who were eliminated, and the freshmen breathed a sigh of relief, only Ji Yue still had that expression of having nothing to do with her.It's just that after Aning finished saying "disband", she raised her eyes and glanced at Su Shichuan, but she couldn't tell what emotion she was in.

After a while, the freshmen received the keys to the dormitory, went back to organize their belongings one after another, and then went to the restaurant for dinner with the garrison.

Ji Yue put the key in her pocket and waited until all the students of the same year had left before walking up to Su Shichuan.

The girl's eyes were explicit, and she was so quiet that she seemed invisible. It's not that Su Shichuan didn't notice it, but she just didn't want to talk to her, but she didn't expect her to be very stubborn. If you ignore me, I will take the initiative to come over.

Next to the two, Aning gave full play to his ability to observe words and expressions, and seeing that the head teacher was silent, he stepped forward and stopped half of his body, blocking Ji Yue's way.

Aning said with a smile: "If you have anything to ask me, Teacher Su is very busy, and I have to hold a meeting with the invigilators later."

"It wasn't a wolf that attacked me." She looked at Aning and said, then turned to Su Shichuan after a few seconds, "Instructor Su, where did the dog you brought with you go when the additional test started?"

Aning didn't expect the girl to ask so bluntly, she kept her face calm, and explained casually: "The military dogs of the Sujiao have always been used to being free-range, and they are probably looking for food near the base at the moment, and they may not be there at night." return."

"Is that so?" She stared at Su Shichuan and paused word by word.

Hearing this, Aning was about to speak again, but before he could open his mouth, Su Shichuan pressed his shoulder first, exerting a little force to signal for silence.

"Go and do your work." After finishing speaking, he looked at Ji Yue, "Come with me."

Aning knew how to keep silent, and walked away wisely.

Su Shichuan walked to the sofa in the corner of the hall and sat down, picked up the teapot and poured two cups of tea, regardless of Ji Yue, took a sip and wrote lightly: "If you want to ask, just say it."

Ji Yue didn't sit down, but stood next to him, and whispered: "You don't want me to stay?"

"Yes." Su Shichuan said, "Is there anything else?"

Ji Yue's brows tightened, as if she didn't expect the other party's reply to be so straightforward, she couldn't help but blurted out: "Why?"

"You are too conspicuous, this kind of conspicuousness will reveal your eagerness for quick success." With crossed legs, Su Zhanchuan sat in an elegant posture, his eyes lightly fell on the empty sofa opposite, but he did not look at the girl next to him, " If I were you, in front of my chief, I would sit down and negotiate terms with him."

Ji Yue was taken aback for a moment, and after a few seconds obediently went to sit in front of the sofa, and asked again stubbornly: "Why?"

Su Shichuan smiled at her, and said calmly: "You are excellent, whether it is the previous three assessments, interviews, or the performance of the past day. To be honest, I admire you very much. Among the newcomers in the whole school, you should also be able to rank well."

"That--!"

Ji Yue didn't finish her sentence, but saw the man on the opposite side put up his finger and put it in front of his lips without saying a word.

Her feeling towards this head teacher is very strange. At first glance, he is obviously a serious and strict person, but at certain times he always reveals gentleness, or even a sense of cunning that is completely opposite to that temperament, and in the end it becomes more and more serious. It became increasingly difficult to see what kind of person he was.

"Then why can't you stay?" Su Shichuan asked the question for her, and after a long silence, he said again, "Because special warfare only trains agents, and in the final analysis is a guy who can't see the light. And you are so dazzling, Even if you are put together with 49 other newcomers, all the eight invigilators in the monitoring room noticed you in one night, how do you think I will let you stay?"

Ji Yue was stunned for a moment, and after a while, she wanted to refute again.

Su Shichuan didn't give her any chance, and continued: "I don't care how good you are, but as long as you enter this major, you must learn to hide your strength, and don't be the top bird."

"You may not have heard that in the specialty of special tactics, the best students often don't even know how good they are directly under the instructor. Everyone you come into contact with may become a target in the future. When your peers no longer If you are a companion, you will regret letting him know so much about you back then."

"To be truly excellent, you still lack a low-key protective color."

Putting down the teacup, Su Shichuan got up and went around the tea table to the sofa where Jiyue was, and reached out to touch the top of her hair: "I personally recommend you to go to the Mecha Marine Corps, I believe it will be more suitable for you than here."

After speaking, he turned to leave, but someone grabbed his wrist suddenly.

"Can you give me another chance?"

"Your mission failed, your identity has been exposed, and the enemy's knife is on your neck, will you beg the other party to give you another chance?"

Su Shichuan pulled out his hand: "There is no restart, you are out."
