Chapter 1284: Spring-like Warmth
Li Jinnian saw their reactions and didn’t explain further. He was also wearing a rubber diving suit. His limbs were slender and exuded the power of the sea. He raised his wrist. “It’s 7.15 pm now. The patrol ship will leave at 7.40 pm. Dismissed.”
“… Captain, is it really a holiday?”
“Captain, give us a quick death! What else is waiting for us?”
No one disbanded. They didn’t dare to leave.
They had been training for months and didn’t even have a day off. Now that they had three days off, they didn’t dare to accept the gift that seemed to have fallen out of the sky.
Li Jinnian never reflected on how traumatic his brutal training was for the soldiers who were about to become official members. His gaze was as cold as the cold moon on the sea. “You don’t believe me?”
After speaking, he shifted his gaze to Ye Jian, who had a calm expression on her face. The handsome young major asked the only female soldier in the team, “Ye Jian, you don’t believe it too?”
“It’s not that I don’t believe you. There will definitely be holidays. I just don’t believe that the Demon King would give us a holiday so readily.” Ye Jian’s voice was clear and light like water droplets. She looked at the other party’s cold and sharp gaze that could dissect a soul and replied calmly, “We believe in holidays, but we don’t believe that we can leave smoothly. Over.”
The only female soldier in the team, the only female soldier who wasn’t afraid of the devil training, spoke the thoughts of the other eight male soldiers.
Li Jinnian always knew that Ye Jian didn’t fear him like the male soldiers. However, he didn’t expect her to question him directly. He didn’t know what to say.
The atmosphere was a little tense. They held their breaths and waited for the Demon King to speak again.
“Navies, you still have 24 minutes.” Big Shark couldn’t bear to look at them anymore. He touched his forehead and sighed. “You indeed have three days of leave. Documents from your original units have arrived at the port. Everyone needs to go through the transfer procedures personally. One of the three days of leave is for you to do your business. The other two days are for you to rest.”
As vice-captain and part-time counselor, they could feel the warmth of the vice-captain every time they experienced the cold winter of Demon King Li. Just like now, his gentle voice broke the seriousness in the air as he said slowly, “There’s nothing special about this holiday. Although your captain’s codename is Demon King and he’s a little strict with you, when you become a frogman, you will feel his spring-like warmth.”
Spring-like warmth?
Li Jinnian looked up slightly and glanced at the vice-captain who was speaking up for him. He said expressionlessly, “I only have spring-like chill, not the spring-like warmth. If you want to find warmth, you can look for the vice-captain. His codename is Big Shark.”
Codename Demon King, codename Big Shark. This was the first time the remaining recruits heard the codename of these legendary frogmen.
The beach was very quiet. The disbanded team members looked at each other and then at the Demon King… Was the Demon King joking just now?
The veteran soldiers behind him laughed loudly and said, “Demon King, your cold joke is still hard to understand. Look at what you’ve done. They can’t believe that you’re giving them a good vacation.”
“Don’t talk about them, we didn’t believe it back then too. We were afraid that someone would appear in the middle of the night and drag us out of the boat.”
As the veterans laughed, the navies finally believed that they were going on holiday!
Under the faint light, everyone burst into laughter. There were still 22 minutes left. They needed to change their diving equipment and clear the beach to see if there was any scattered equipment. Then, they would return to their tents to pack everything… and leave the skerry where they had been training for almost four months!
