86 Bringing You Home
Soon, there was only one person left below the city wall, but this became everyone’s problem. The city wall was too high and it was impossible to pull him up without anyone else supporting him below.
“Sister Man.” Chen Wei thought about it seriously and suggested, “Why don’t I borrow a rope from the instructor!”
...“No need.” Shi Man looked at Su Tang and Chen Wei and said calmly, “You just have to hold onto me tightly later.”
“Manman, what are you doing?” Su Tang grabbed her hand worriedly and realized that a wound had appeared on her usually fair and tender palm.
“You’re bleeding. There’s too much dust here. Be careful of infection. I’ll take you to the infirmary to deal with it.” Su Tang didn’t dare touch her hand again. Instead, she took her arm and tried to pull her down the city wall.
“I’m fine. It’s just a small injury.” Shi Man looked at the edge of the venue. Seeing that the miniature bomb that had been set up in advance was about to explode at the foot of the city wall, she jumped onto the edge of the city wall and hooked her knee tightly onto the wall, hanging upside down.
On the rostrum, Shi Mu couldn’t help but stand up in fear. The city wall was more than four meters tall. If Shi Man accidentally fell, adopting such a posture was no different from taking the initiative to die.
“Stop! Stop quickly!” He rushed to the commander-in-chief crazily, trying to use the Shi family’s power to end this training in advance.
“There’s no hurry.” Yi Zheng looked at the girl hanging upside down on the wall with certainty. He knew Shi Man’s strength better than anyone, but for some reason, his heart was still in his throat. However, this nervousness had long been hidden by his coldness.
“If anything happens to my sister because of this training, I won’t let any of you off!” Shi Mu glared at Yi Zheng fiercely, his fists clenched by his sides.
On the city wall, everyone held their breaths because of Shi Man’s actions.
“Manman!” Su Tang was the first to react. She pounced on her in shock and hugged her waist, so frightened that tears flowed out.
“Sister Man! Let me help you!”
After Chen Wei pounced over to help her stabilize her legs, Shi Man reached out and grabbed the hands of the last person under the wall. The veins on her arms bulged, and a powerful force erupted from her waist. Finally, with everyone’s combined efforts, she successfully helped the last student cross the city wall.
Seeing that his training goal had been achieved, the chief instructor immediately ordered the removal of all the simulated combat equipment and the bombs. The dust gradually dissipated, revealing the blue sky. The sunlight shone on everyone for a long time, letting these students, who had been pampered since they were born, realize for the first time how rare and beautiful peace was.
The chief instructor clapped his hands and stood on the rostrum in relief. He praised, “As expected of students of Cassel Academy. You used the shortest time since the launch of the organization’s practical training to complete this mission efficiently. Every one of you will become the pride of the future motherland!”
Joy filled every face after surviving a calamity. This practical training made people see many things clearly.
The most outstanding student was Shi Man. Her final decisiveness on the city wall was deeply engraved in everyone’s minds.
Later on, when the students mentioned Shi Man, they would always think of her bravery and courage that day. No one would associate her with the title of trash anymore. Instead, they would worship her from the bottom of their hearts.
The practical training ended successfully with everyone working together.
Before packing up and returning to school, Shi Mu ran to the dormitory to look for her in fear. He held her hand and saw the wound on it. His heart ached so much that his eyes turned red. “Sister, if I had known this would happen, I would have brought you home yesterday.”
“Why are you bringing me home?” Shi Man put away her backpack and looked at him in confusion. “It’s quite interesting. If only I could have simulated combat training.”
Thinking of the advanced guns in their hands during military training, Shi Man felt envious.
Unfortunately, she could not touch such good weapons casually. If she wanted it, she could only try her luck in the black market or extort them from Yi Zheng.
Thinking of that man, Shi Man asked casually, “Where’s Yi Zheng? Has he left?”
“You care about him?” Shi Mu frowned as if she was talking about the Shi family’s irreconcilable enemy.
He disliked Yi Zheng a hundred times now, and was afraid that his sister would still be reluctant to part with him.
He really could not understand how such a cold-blooded man was worthy of his precious sister’s love. He was not worthy of their Shi family’s treasure at all!
Su Tang paused in her packing and stiffened her body as she pricked up her ears to listen to her answer.
Shi Man did not expect her casual words to make the two of them react so strongly. She smiled awkwardly and carried her bag. “Why should I care about him? Didn’t the two of you have a conflict on the rostrum just now?”
“Sister!” Shi Mu immediately turned his grief and indignation into relief and gratitude. He pounced on Shi Man and hugged her shoulder tightly. He said pitifully, “So you didn’t forget to pay attention to me at such a dangerous time. I didn’t dote on you in vain. When we go back, I’ll treat you to king crab!”
“Sure.” Shi Man smiled. When she saw Su Tang smiling quietly, she suddenly said, “Are you coming to my house?”
