Chapter 77

The gaze of codename S is becoming increasingly different.

Academy for developing capabilities.

The first squad's exclusive morning training room.

After stretching her muscles, An Lan walked up to Qin Yu and asked, "Where's the newcomer?"

She remembered that Qin Yu was put in charge of training new employees.

After Qin Yu finished two sets of stretching exercises, he took a towel to dry himself off. "Sister Lan, you can't ask me about this."

An Lan rolled her eyes at him, assuming he was just slacking off.

She then asked, "I heard that guy named You Ning escaped from prison?"

"What exactly is her relationship with Ah Lin?"

Anlan unscrewed a bottle of water and put it in her mouth.

Feng Yao silently appeared, trying to cover up his mistake by saying, "I'll get the towel."

Qin Yu hummed twice, as he was the most qualified to speak on this matter.

He ran his fingers back and forth between the two of them, then chuckled, "I'm not telling you."

If he were to reveal the captain's dark history of online dating, wouldn't he be silenced?

Moreover, it's not as simple as an online dating mishap; that was a dungeon, which would be a huge humiliation for the captain.

It's unspeakable, it's unspeakable.

An Lanmei is strikingly beautiful, possesses a strong aggressive quality, and has a preference for red.

Her full, red lips curved slightly, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in her beautiful eyes. "Oh?"

"Sister Lan, please spare me." Relying on their long-standing tacit understanding, Qin Yu immediately begged for mercy, "I really can't say it."

"What did you say?"

An Lan's eyes lit up. "Ah Lin, you're here."

Feng Yao's eyes, hidden beneath the brim of his hat, brightened slightly. "Captain."

Qin Yu quickly got up. "We didn't say anything, just chatting."

Hello~

Su Yuan peeked out from behind Qi Lin, quickly taking two or three steps to create distance between them, and greeted him politely.

Good morning, beautiful lady!

An Lan paused for a moment and looked at Qi Lin.

Did Ah Lin specially bring the newcomer along?

Su Yuan wore a black high-elastic base layer, a short black and silver jacket, and black wide-leg combat pants, with the cuffs tucked into high-top durable combat boots.

It looks quite professional.

"You..." An Lan had just opened her mouth.

Su Yuan immediately spoke up, "I just signed up for my driver's license test yesterday, so I definitely won't bother you, Captain."

Her eyes were filled with determination, as if afraid that if she stayed even a second longer, she would be associated with Qi Lin.

The key question is, is Qi Lin mentally challenged?

They clearly don't like me, yet they still try to win me over.

It ruined her reputation!

They have ill intentions!

Morally corrupt!

Qi Lin's gaze swept over her expression, his voice steady, "This is Su Yuan, a new member."

He turned to Su Yuan and pointed, "An Lan, Qin Yu, you've met them both."

"And Feng Yao."

Qin Yu and An Lan have already met, but Feng Yao, who just came out of the dungeon not long ago, has not yet met him.

Su Yuan smiled broadly and extended her hand, "Hello, I'm Su Yuan."

Feng Yao remained indifferent, raising his hand to adjust his boxing gloves, showing no regard for Su Yuan whatsoever.

Su Yuan wasn't angry. She was just a guest of the first team, and she was getting paid and meals provided.

Once the money is paid back, they'll just pack up and leave.

An Lan smiled brightly and generously, "Welcome to the team."

Qin Yu winked at Su Yuan, giving her a look that said, "Don't worry about him, I've got your back."

Su Yuan grabbed An Lan's hand first, winking and saying, "Sister An Lan, why don't you train me?"

An Lan was unaware that Qi Lin was going to personally train Su Yuan. She assumed that Su Yuan thought Qin Yu was not reliable enough and was about to agree when she saw Qi Lin reach out and grab Su Yuan by the back of her neck and collar.

"Come here." Qi Lin pulled her outside.

Su Yuan flailed twice, her pleading gaze falling on An Lan.

Hey, didn't you like Qi Lin to death?

We should stop them!

Making her listen to Qi Lin's lectures is practically torture.

An Lan remained silent until Qi Lin had walked away before asking coldly, "Didn't I tell you to train new recruits?"

"How did it turn into Ah-Rin?"

Qin Yu felt a slight chill on his neck and made an excuse, "It's because the newcomers are too incompetent. The captain doesn't trust me, who is unreliable, to handle them."

"What if I don't teach well, and the newcomers make a fool of themselves?"

An Lan would never directly contradict the captain's decisions.

Qin Yu knew she would hold him accountable later, so he chose to get away quickly before An Lan got angry. "I'm leaving first."

"My uncle is waiting to let him know he's safe and sound when he gets home."

Qin Yu didn't say it was to inform Qin Yu that Su Yuan was safe, to prevent An Lan from getting angry.

For three consecutive days, Su Yuan's days were filled with unbearable suffering.

We have to get up before dawn to train our physical fitness, followed by mental strength training and ability operation courses.

In the afternoon, Qi Lin dragged me to a real combat match.

I still have to practice tonight, and after that I'll cram on knowledge about the Federation, unions, associations, and other organizations.

They were practically training him to death.

Su Yuan lay on the cold floor, with the B-grade artifact boning knife lying to one side.

This body is still struggling a bit.

She's not going to practice anymore; she's going to give up!

Suddenly, a shadow appeared in front of me.

Su Yuan opened her eyes and found that it was Qi Lin who handed her the candy.

She reached out and took it, then pried it open and stuffed it into her mouth.

That's wonderful, the world is still sweet.

System: [Host, why do I feel like Code S's gaze towards you is getting more and more different...]

Su Yuan: [What do you mean?]

The system secretly wiped its sweat: [Hasn't the host noticed that Code Name S has been giving the host candy these past few days?]

Su Yuan muttered to herself, "Isn't it because his conscience is too bothering him?"

[But the candy each time is different, though it's always something the host said they liked.....]

The candy in Su Yuan's mouth instantly tasted less sweet, and a deep displeasure appeared in her eyes.

You bastard, you're like a frog being slowly boiled in water, trying to scheme against her?

She quickly sat up and showed Qi Lin the bracelet on her wrist. "Captain, is this thing accurate?"

Qi Lin, puzzled by her sudden accent, replied, "After three dungeons, the entry times became irregular, and the timing of the bracelet's notifications was almost always correct."

Since there were no accompanying gadgets, the only way to detect them was with a wristband.

Su Yuan's eyes lit up; this was a good find.

"Alright."

She dusted herself off and walked away, spitting the candy in her mouth into the trash can as she passed, saying with disgust, "What does it taste like? It's awful."

"Captain, don't buy this flavor next time, it's too cloying." Su Yuan shouted to express her dislike.

She strolled back to her apartment, where a small card was placed at the door, informing her that she would be taking her driver's license test in two days.

As expected of a federal government, their efficiency is truly impressive.

As soon as she took the card down, she felt an almost intimate scrutiny from behind, starting from her neck, moving down her spine inch by inch, as if trying to tear her flesh apart piece by piece.

Su Yuan trembled all over.

She turned around abruptly, and Zhou Si suddenly jumped out.

"Clang! Clang!"

He held the cake high, his tiredness barely concealed, yet the joy he felt upon seeing Su Yuan on his handsome face remained unrestrained.

"How's it going, Rongrong? Did Qi Lin, that expressionless guy, give you a hard time?"

Su Yuan's gaze lingered in the darkness; the strangeness just now definitely wasn't Zhou Si.

but.

"Don't call me Rongrong."

Zhou Si was jingling and jingling, his smile was smug, "I like calling you that, you little thing. If you won't let me call you 'little thing,' then I'll call you 'fluffy,' 'little bunny'..."

"Ugh—"
