Chapter 172 Not a Night Raid
Xi Yu searched the entire lounge building but still couldn't find Yan San's room!
Back at the building entrance, she looked at the sign again. Sure enough, this was the instructors' dormitory! But why couldn't she find Yan San's room?
Could it be... that he doesn't live here?
If she lingers here any longer, she'll be treated as a suspicious person.
Suddenly, a thought struck her, and she remembered another location.
Besides this building, there are also separate dormitories for the instructors on the east side of the military academy, but those dormitories are only for the principal and instructors of a certain rank.
With a try-it-and-see attitude, Xi Yu decided to go to the east side.
To the east is an enclosed area containing an artificial lake, and on the other side of the lake are houses surrounded by groves of trees.
In a quaint dormitory located at the back, Yan San was communicating with Fu Baili in his room, discussing matters within the legion.
"These are the current tentative tasks. Do you have anything to add?" He spoke rapidly on the AI while talking to Fu Baili's avatar.
“Understood, I will assign the tasks. However, our First Legion is really short-handed. I was thinking that we should recruit a batch of new soldiers.” Fu Baili rubbed his forehead and collapsed onto the sofa, looking tired. He was usually quite casual in his rest room.
Yan San's fingers kept working, and he answered while multitasking: "We just recruited a batch of new soldiers two months ago, didn't we? Let's train them well first and get them ready to take on missions as soon as possible."
Yan San was referring to the graduating class of military academy students from the previous year, but not many of them were successfully incorporated into the First Army Corps last year.
“I’ve already made those few recruits work as laborers! And that’s still not enough!” Fu Baili sat up and shouted. Because of the First Legion’s strict requirements for recruits, the number of people joining the team each year is very small.
"Wait a little longer. The military academy has recruited quite a few promising students this year. There's bound to be one you're looking for among them." Yan San's indifferent tone left Fu Baili helpless.
"By the way, are you free tomorrow? You don't need to be an instructor on Saturday, right?" Fu Baili suddenly asked.
Tomorrow he has arranged to meet Yan San's nominal wife to dissolve the engagement. Since Yan San is the person involved, it would be better for them to go together.
"What?" Yan San typed the last command and finally stopped.
"Tomorrow I..." Fu Baili had just begun to speak when someone gently knocked on the door.
Yan San showed a momentary stunned expression, then suddenly said, "I have something important to do, we'll continue later." He cut off the connection before Fu Baili could finish speaking, and Fu Baili's illusory image disappeared instantly.
Yan San went straight to open the door, and the person knocking outside was none other than Xi Yu, who had a calm expression on his face.
"How rare... a night raid?" He smiled slightly, his mood suddenly brightening, and the fatigue from the past few days vanished.
"Major Yan, you're overthinking it. I can't possibly be worthy of your beauty." Xi Yu's lips twitched slightly, and she really wanted to say: Get lost!
Yan San chuckled softly, then stepped aside to let her in. He knew she must have something important to say to him, since she had come alone at this hour.
Xi Yu didn't stand on ceremony and sat down on the sofa in the living room.
This dormitory is almost like a small villa, complete with a living room, kitchen, and bedrooms.
Yan San went into the kitchen and brought out two drinks.
"Warm milk." He placed one of the cups in front of Xi Yu.
"Thank you." Xi Yu thanked her politely, but instead of taking the drink, she took out something she had been hiding in her pocket.
"I came here for this matter," she said in a low voice, placing the items on the table.
