under the mask

Walking out of the dressing room, the group fell silent, and the only sound in the narrow corridor was the sound of boots rubbing against the concrete floor.They turned half a "kou" along the corridor, and when they passed the corner, Li Wei looked towards one of the corners, and found that it was not a dead corner, but a diagonally deep passage.Half of the base is at the bottom, and there is a small courtyard in the middle of the "mouth" corridor. The wall next to the courtyard is equipped with floor-to-ceiling windows and glass doors leading to the atrium, and the other side of the corridor is a room.

Sure enough, when passing the next corner, there is still a channel that diverges from the corner.Li Wei wondered secretly, and didn't know if the end of the passage was still underground, or if it was an exit leading to the ground.

"The resident camp here is based on the desert resident on our auxiliary star, but it doesn't have so many high-tech equipment." The otaku suddenly said: "This kind of semi-underground base can avoid the sun, and the temperature difference between morning and evening will not be too obvious... And it’s not easy to spot on the ground.”

The disadvantage is the waste of space.Li Wei evaluated as he watched, if such an underground building includes all the dining room, activity room, warehouse, arsenal, etc., it will not be able to accommodate many soldiers at all, plus there are dormitories... In other words, a desert garrison must at least There are dozens of such small bases.

The base assigned to them by the system was obviously not occupied by other soldiers, but there were already people in the office.

The otaku stopped in front of the door and listened carefully, then turned around and asked in a low voice, "Where is Li Wei, he is the highest rank in our army, let him in."

Everyone looked towards the back of the line and made way for Li Wei.

"Regardless of the identity of the person inside, remember not to say too much, don't mention any words about the game." The otaku told him: "Everyone should enter the role. If the NPC suspects it, he has the right to kill you."

"Who's outside? Come in." A man's voice sounded from the office.

"Remember, don't say too much!" The otaku patted him on the shoulder and emphasized again.

Li Wei nodded, and glanced at the nameplate above the office - psychological counseling room.He took a deep breath and grabbed the old-fashioned doorknob, gently pushed the door open and walked in.

Inside is a room of more than ten square meters. It is not big, but the light green wallpaper, the slightly yellowed wool carpet, and the cool air brought by the temperature control equipment make people feel soothed, and the heat all over the body subsides.

There are two people in the room.

One was sitting behind the desk facing Levi, and the other was standing in front of the desk with his back to him.

"Are you the new leader? Corporal?" The man behind the desk was wearing a suit and glanced at the two golden corners on Li Wei's short sleeves.

If this man is an NPC, it means that there is no problem with the dialogue and communication in the game. If he is also a player... Li Wei thought quickly in his mind, and if the otaku doesn't know, then he is from another grade?

"Yes...doctor." He glanced at the sign on the man's desk, and the translator translated simultaneously.Sha...Shattata Milks Curryd...doctor?What is this?

Sha... the doctor will be fine for the time being. Anyway, the doctor smiled immediately, stood up and walked around the desk towards him.

"That's great, Corporal, I've waited for you for at least half a month, and now I can finally relax a little..." He reached out and shook hands with Li Wei, complaining: "A batch retired this month and another batch came again. The encounter with the Falcon...it's really unreasonable for me to be the psychiatrist in the entire station. Before you came, I had to be in charge of the daily affairs of the No. [-] base camp—what did you say? How many hands-"

Li Wei has never met such a long-winded person except for meeting with leaders in his previous life.But he had to admit that when he first entered a new environment and knew nothing, he was very lucky to meet such a long-winded person.Now he knows that he is the team leader of this small base camp, equivalent to the team leader of a team, and they are "new recruits who came to the station at the beginning of the month".

"...You have to come again before I get off work at night, and take away the soldiers' files in your base camp." The doctor finally stopped, looked at Li Wei and asked with a smile, "Any questions?"

Li Wei looked at him speechlessly: "Yes, doctor. Our team hasn't registered yet."

"Oh my god," the doctor patted his head angrily, "how did I forget... this has to be done by the team leader, so Base Camp No. [-] hasn't been registered yet... your dormitory will be here , By the way, I'll find someone to take you..." He thought for a while, then turned around and shouted to the guy who was still standing in front of the table with his head down looking at something, "Hey, Lieutenant! You just want to go back, so take him with you by the way! "

Li Wei looked at the guy following the doctor's gaze. The guy hadn't moved much since he came in. He thought it was an NPC stuck or something...

"...Huh?" The tall man had a deep and sexy voice, and the lieutenant's golden rectangular epaulettes shone on his broad shoulders. He raised the hard black brim of his big-brimmed hat, and turned to look at Li Wei and the doctor.

Then Li Wei and the lieutenant froze at the same time.

Li Wei was stunned because he saw a familiar face, but this person looked like he was in his early twenties, and he really didn't have this person in his memory.Taking a closer look, he suddenly found that the other person's pupils and hair were both red, and he couldn't help being a little bit ridiculous. It turned out that he felt familiar because his hair was the same as that guy's.So calm down instantly.

"You guys know each other?" Seeing them staring at each other silently, the doctor couldn't help being suspicious.

Li Wei shook his head: "I don't know."

The lieutenant was still a little hesitant at first, but when he heard the words, he immediately said with a blank expression: "I don't know... so you take him there yourself, I still have to be on duty."

"Hey?" The doctor shouted dissatisfied: "I helped you solve the evaluation form, many times!"

It's a pity that the person he was talking to didn't even hesitate at all, and just gesticulated with the middle finger before taking the door out. After a loud bang, a lot of white paint fell off the door frame.

Li Wei thought for a moment, even his temper is...fucking.

"It's been a few years, why are you still so scary..." The doctor shook his head habitually, and had no choice but to put away the documents on the desk and prepare to go out.

"Is he the chief of the station?" Li Wei asked cautiously.If a corporal can be the team leader, then the lieutenant might be the biggest official in the entire garrison.

"Did you ask Lieutenant Sterling?" The doctor took off his suit jacket and went out with him: "He is not, but he is very famous in the desert station... Sterling has been here for almost five years, and soldiers come and go Let's go, only his team basically hasn't changed... I remember when he came, he was just a non-commissioned officer like you."

Li Wei came out after him, and found that the otaku and the others were no longer in the corridor, probably returning to the dormitory.

"Five years? Then he was too young when he came here." He answered casually, "It doesn't look that old now."

"You are similar to him at that time, corporal." The doctor led him into a corner passage, and said with a good-natured smile, "but your temper is much better than his."

Levi shrugged.

The registration process went smoothly, and Li Wei guessed that the doctor's handsome face played a role.In the army, a psychiatrist is equivalent to a dad, and a beautiful psychiatrist is a super dad.

"This is for you, corporal." The veteran in charge of the soldier's file threw him a wrist-shaped communicator and a pack of cards: "Remember to wear the communicator at all times. This is your authority certificate as the leader. Your team's attendance record The status of rewards and punishments are all in it... The card is for your team members, and you have to rely on it for eating, bathing and entertainment."

"Thank you brother." Li Wei put his things away, swept his eyes, and took a map of the garrison camp from the veteran's desk.There is nothing special about it, except for the base camp marked with numbers, which are the signs of buildings such as restaurants, bathrooms, indoor playgrounds, which are exactly what he needs.The doctor said goodbye to him in a hurry. According to him, there were still several base camp soldiers who had to undergo psychological evaluation in the afternoon, so he had to hurry to lunch.

Li Wei glanced at the time, and calculated that the ratio of the game time to the displayed time was two to one, and it was almost noon now.He was about to go back to Base Camp No. [-] to tell the otaku the basic information, when suddenly the system beeped.

"Ding - you have a friend request"

Li Wei stopped to check his mailbox, and saw that it was a person named "The Great God Basil Gava is me" who applied to add him as a friend.Basil Gava... The look of an otaku wielding a big sword flashed in front of his eyes, and the corner of his mouth twitched as he nodded in agreement.The system prompt passed, and the private chat channel rang immediately.

"Have you finished your work?" Basil Gava - the otaku asked over there.

Li Wei wanted to laugh inexplicably, so he suppressed a hum.

"Then you go directly to the activity room of the base, everyone gathers here."

"Okay, got it."

When he returned to the activity room, it was past twelve o'clock.There was a pungent smell of sweat in the room, and occasionally you could smell the smell of feet. The half-sized children in the room were so hungry that they stared at the door sadly, waiting for him to come back so that they could break up and grab a meal. .

"Are you going to bask in the sun or something?" Li Wei was speechless, and threw things to them to share.

"Forget about it, routine training every morning!" The little man named Tony grabbed the otaku's thick arm and wailed: "Master, why don't you change me into a stronger vest, what a fucking pain...!"

"I'm already funny enough. The teachers in other classes just put on their own vests," the otaku wiped off his sweat, "My own ones have survived to the brigadier general level, so I have to change into a private first-class vest to accompany you."

As soon as the cards were divided, everyone dispersed to find a restaurant, and the rest of the otaku asked some basic information.

"By the way, teacher..." Li Wei thought about it and asked him: "Do you know a lieutenant named Sterling? I saw him in the doctor's office today. He is tall and has red hair and red eyes."

"Sterling?" The otaku's eyes flickered: "Is it Jacob in the third grade? Yo, I haven't seen you for a while, and you've become a lieutenant?"

Jacob?Jacob? !

=mouth=! ! ! !

It was not my illusion!

Li Wei opened his mouth wide, but soon felt the stupidity of the expression and quickly closed it.He walked towards his room in a daze, thinking more and more angrily... He didn't recognize Jacob, but Jacob couldn't recognize him for no reason, so the conclusion was - that kid ignored him!

With such indescribable anger, when Li Wei saw a tall man squatting at the door of his house from a distance, his expression could no longer be expressed with muscles.

"You know, don't you?" Jacob immediately put away his pitiful expression as soon as he saw the person coming.He stuck there with his slender and strong legs, shaking indifferently.

"..."

Li Wei pretended to be impatient and squinted at him: "Know what?"

Jacob took a few steps forward, bent slightly and leaned in front of him: "That dead otaku must have told you, Sterling is my vest... No, it's not even a vest," he stroked his bearded His chin bared his teeth triumphantly: "See? This is what I will look like when I grow up. Are you surprised?"

Yan or something... I wouldn't admit it, but I was really surprised.Li Wei looked at the face close at hand indifferently.If you log in with one account for three years, you should be an adult after calculating the time...

This game can still do that.

"What do you want from me?" Li Wei opened the door with a key, and asked him as calmly as possible.

Thinking of Abel's warning, Jacob couldn't help but feel a little nervous and shy.

"I just want to ask you...then what, why don't you take care of me?"
