In short, as long as your name was noted down, you would be on tenterhooks for two weeks.
The freshmen hadn’t realized how scary the officer was. Even Ye Jian didn’t notice it. The officer didn’t check their identification immediately. Instead, he observed them for a while before nodding and saying to Ye Jian, “This is a good idea. It will definitely be effective if you stand like this for a year.”
They were quite polite. They weren’t as fierce as her seniors said.
Ye Jian muttered in her heart before replying, “An hour every night for a month, there will be gains.”
“Good thinking. However, the few of you standing on the staircase of the school will affect the rest of the students. I won’t warn you tonight. Be careful next time.” He returned Ye Jian’s identification document. The glaring torchlight shone on their feet and the leader of the inspectors smiled.
After the other two inspectors checked everyone’s identification documents and confirmed that they didn’t do anything else but train their posture, the three of them went downstairs.
“They’re not as fierce as the seniors say. I feel that they’re quite polite.”
“That’s because…” The moment a boy opened his mouth, his cap fell from his head. His tone changed. “D*mn! ”
Ye Jian said coldly, “If you had said that just now, your name would definitely be mentioned in the weekly meeting. Be careful with your words. Additional ten minutes, you dropped your cap.”
“Comrade, spare me this time. I want to go back to the dormitory to sleep.”
“Stand properly. Don’t fall on me!”
Even his speech slowed down. He was afraid that he would lose his cap if he spoke too loudly. Time seemed to pass by unnoticeably. When Ye Jian said that it was over, Qian Yanjun still didn’t believe her. “That can’t be. Forty minutes is so fast? The forty minutes in the morning seemed to be forty days!”
“Your attention was diverted, that’s why it’s so fast.” Just as Ye Jian finished speaking, a boy chuckled and asked Qian Yanjun, “What did you use to divert your attention just now?”
Qian Yanjun straightened his cap and out of habit, checked if his buttons were buttoned. He replied proudly, “I did physics questions. I did them in my mind and I really didn’t feel the time passing.”
“I recited English words,” Song Zhiqiu replied.
He Jing rolled her eyes at them and replied honestly, “I recited the rules and regulations in the booklet. Didn’t the teacher say that we should take it slow in the first and second years of our studies? Then, give it our all in the third and fourth years. As long as we don’t fail or retake exams, we will be fine. You’re still thinking about studying every day. Do you still think you are senior high students that study hard day and night?”
Education in military school wasn’t as important as education in top universities. For instance, if a very great but sickly genius entered the military school, he would realize that the asset that he was so proud of was trash in terms of stamina, military, and internal affairs!
After she finished speaking, she asked Ye Jian, “What about you?”
“Me?” Ye Jian paused for a moment when she heard this. In the end, she replied honestly, “I thought about the course arrangements. Cryptography seems quite interesting. I plan to go to the library tomorrow night to look for books on that.”
“I’m very interested in that course too! When I was in my second year of high school, I fell in love with Morse code. That’s why I entered the military school!” The boy from Shanghai took over the topic excitedly. “I like the affine cipher too! Ye Jian, what about you? What do you like?
