343: We must capture them this time.

“Old Lu and I discussed this a few days ago...”

Lu Jing saw Military Doctor Shen’s gaze, and he glanced at Military Doctor Shen indifferently. Although he didn't have a smug expression, Military Doctor Shen could discern the word 'smug' in his eyes.

“Like our First Team Special Combat Members now, everyone must learn first aid knowledge... Everyone must learn about tanks, trucks, and the like...”

“I'm actually looking forward to your days after returning to the Special Forces Brigade...”

Old Lu, Captain Chen, and Political Commissar Li were also discussing these matters.

Captain Chen and Political Commissar Li wanted Old Lu to come up with a training plan, which they would send to the top Commanders for approval... “You two continue, I’ll keep listening.”

Hearing Military Doctor Shen’s words, Xiao Niannian looked at Lu Jing.

Seeing Lu Jing nod at her, Xiao Niannian and Lu Jing continued their discussion.

“Last time we went into the mountains to rescue the Experts, all the Soldiers there knew how to defuse and disarm mines, and their skills were excellent. If their skills had been even slightly worse, there would have been casualties...”

“You’re absolutely right. All the Soldiers in our First Team must know how to defuse and disarm mines, and lay landmines...” Lu Jing nodded in agreement.

After talking for a while, Military Doctor Shen wished he could immediately assign Xiao Niannian to the First Team.

But Niannian hadn't graduated from the Military Academy yet.

“It’s getting late, Old Shen, go downstairs and rest.” Lu Jing checked his watch; Military Doctor Shen had been in the room for twenty minutes.

Hearing Old Lu’s words, Military Doctor Shen looked at Lu Jing. Was he trying to get him to leave?

Old Lu lived next door to Niannian.

“Brother, Brother Lu, Sister Xiao.” Shen Yan had been talking with Grandma Xiao downstairs for a while, and not seeing his brother come down, he yelled at the top of his lungs.

“Coming.”

Military Doctor Shen glanced at Lu Jing and walked outside.

Lu Jing looked at Xiao Niannian, a faint smile on his face, and said.

“Niannian, I’m going downstairs to wash up.”

“Okay.”

After Lu Jing left, Xiao Niannian closed the door.

Her hands clenched into fists. After Lu Jing went downstairs, Xiao Niannian nearly jumped up.

The scene of her kissing Lu Jing kept flashing in her mind. She and Lu Jing had actually kissed, and Lu Jing had even confessed to her, saying so many sweet words... Her face grew redder and redder.

After Lu Jing went downstairs, he was in an exceptionally good mood.

Military Doctor Shen looked at Lu Jing, narrowing his eyes as he scrutinized him.

“Old Lu, you’re a bit off today.”

As brothers for nearly thirty years, who grew up together since they were toddlers, his familiarity with Lu Jing was beyond what outsiders could imagine.

Old Lu usually wouldn't show his joy even for a little bit of good news, but the smile on his lips hadn't stopped just now. It was rare to see Old Lu smile like this.

The last time was when the Special Forces Brigade was established, wasn't it?

The time before that, was it when Old Lu became a pilot?

Military Doctor Shen thought about the training methods he had just heard. He had to admit, Comrade Xiao was an excellent talent. If she were a male comrade, she would definitely be Old Lu’s opponent.

These ideas were truly ahead of their time.

After hearing some of the methods just now, he couldn't help but slap his thigh in approval.

He was also puzzled. Comrade Xiao grew up in the City Name, and besides Yangcheng, she hadn't been to other places. This Heilongjiang Province mission was her first time experiencing winter in Heilongjiang Province, the extreme cold weather.

How did she come up with training methods like snow mountains, swamps, deserts, and the sea?

Oh, right, Comrade Xiao said she liked reading. She used to borrow books from the library and also read books at the scrap recycling station... It's possible she saw them in these places. After all, there were many books before, and some foreign books that might not be available elsewhere, but would definitely be at the scrap recycling station.

Thinking of this, Military Doctor Shen no longer had any doubts.

“Old Lu, this training manual written by Comrade Xiao is truly effective.”

Lu Jing nodded.

“We’ll research this later, find more people to train. If there are no problems, it can be used as a textbook...”

Lu Jing thought about Niannian agreeing to him just now. Although he wasn't Niannian’s boyfriend yet, he was the person Niannian was currently evaluating. He knew Niannian’s personality; if she said yes, then in this life, no one would be able to break them apart... Hearing Lu Jing’s words, Military Doctor Shen nodded in agreement.

The current training methods for the Special Forces Brigade were all formulated by Old Lu, Captain Chen, Political Commissar Li, and a few others after discussion. The Captains of the Second Team and Third Team only led training and did not participate in setting rules.

But the Captain of the Second Team, in particular, thought he was incredibly capable and wanted to beat Old Lu every single day.

It could be said that if Old Lu weren't still too young, the Captain of this Special Forces Brigade would have been Old Lu.

Flying planes, driving tanks, operating ships—what couldn't Old Lu do?

Now Comrade Xiao was even more extraordinary, even participating in design. That gun silencer from before was truly effective. Now, when they go on missions, everyone carries a gun silencer.

And that mine detector, and many other things, were much better than what the Military Factory had researched.

He believed that talented people were indeed very different from ordinary people.

And Comrade Xiao was that talented person, and Old Lu was also a very talented person. For so many years, they had worked together on missions and formed the Special Forces Brigade. It seemed nothing could stump Old Lu.

Geniuses are truly different from ordinary people.

He was very curious, what would two geniuses be like together?

It’s just that Old Lu hadn't won over Comrade Xiao yet.

Xiao Niannian lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, not feeling sleepy at all.

She didn't know how long passed, but just as she was starting to feel a little sleepy, Xiao Niannian heard footsteps from outside the courtyard.

“Are you sure Xiao Niannian is back?”

“Sure. Villagers saw her; she came back in a car.”

“Bring the tools, sneak in, and light the sleeping gas...”

“We must catch them this time.”

“Yes.”

Xiao Niannian heard six people, and her expression instantly turned serious.

The people who saw her return to the village today were the grandmas and Aunts in the village. She wasn't familiar with these voices. Who were these people? Coming to her house to deal with her?

And sleeping gas?

Xiao Niannian thought of how it was depicted in TV shows in her original world, where they could blow sleeping gas through a bamboo tube. Now, her house had glass windows, and in such cold weather, no windows were open for ventilation.

If they wanted to use sleeping gas, they would have to quietly pry open the lock, enter the house, and blow it in from under the door crack.

Xiao Niannian heard Lu Jing’s footsteps in the next room, and downstairs, Military Doctor Shen’s footsteps also sounded. Shen Yan, however, was still sound asleep.
