"Suitable?" Ren Xiaosu did not quite understand what Yang Xiaojin meant. "The Pyro Company's members are too good at sacrificing others. You've also seen P5092's plans in the past few times. Even the Qinghe University students were kept in the dark. Those students were even singing and dancing happily, but they never expected they would be used as bait. How can someone like him be suitable for the Northwest?"
"It's not that he's suitable for the Northwest." Yang Xiaojin shook her head. "It's that he's suitable for you."
"Why do you say that?" Ren Xiaosu asked curiously.
"You see, he likes to use others as bait to set up his schemes. He even used himself as bait in Mt. Dashi." Yang Xiaojin patiently explained, "And you like to be the bait …."
Ren Xiaosu immediately understood what Yang Xiaojin meant. Back in the Sacred Mountains, he had already started using himself as bait to create an environment for Yang Xiaojin to snipe at. Then, he repeated the same trick at Mt. Dashi. Including this time when he was hunting down Black Robe, he had used himself as bait three times in a row.
However, Ren Xiaosu was confident because he knew he would not die. Although it looked like Ren Xiaosu was injured when he encountered Black Robe tonight, he still had a trump card that he had not used yet.
Therefore, Yang Xiaojin's idea was that since P5092 liked to use bait tactics so much, and Ren Xiaosu had the ability to be bait now, it might be very exciting if the two of them worked together.
If things went wrong, the strongest bait in history might just be born.
If others were to be bait, they would have to be cautious and fearful. But if Ren Xiaosu were to be bait, the enemy who came to take the bait might end up getting killed instead.
If he could come to an agreement with P5092 to always lure the enemy deep into Ren Xiaosu's territory, that would actually not be a bad idea either.
Yang Xiaojin rolled her eyes at him. "I was being sarcastic. I told you not to put yourself in danger all the time, but I see that you're seriously considering it?"
"Ahem, no, no." Ren Xiaosu hurriedly explained, "I've already written a note. I'll throw it at the FOB's command center first before meeting up with the people from the Trinity Institute."
With that, the two of them quickly left. Less than a minute later, they heard a cannon blast. It looked like the Pyro Company had already defeated the barbarians.
The two of them made a big detour and quietly met up with Wang Jing and the others. Then Ren Xiaosu and the others obediently stayed next to the vehicles and waited for the Pyro Company to clean up the scene.
At this time, the people from the Trinity Institute were already hiding outside the forward operating base, watching the battle from afar.
When Wang Jing and the others saw Ren Xiaosu, they did not ask any questions. In fact, they had already guessed that the snipers who had suddenly appeared were the two of them. As a matter of fact, they had heard from Ji Yi and the Qinghe Group students that if not for the mysterious snipers, they would all have died.
At this moment, Wang Jing and the others sighed in their hearts. As expected, they could live longer by traveling with Ren Xiaosu. This time, it was also Ren Xiaosu who first predicted there would be an enemy attack.
Ren Xiaosu whispered, "If the Pyro Company asks …"
"Don't worry, you've always been with us." Wang Jing said, "I've already explained it to them, so everyone knows what to say."
Only then did Ren Xiaosu relax and look around. The Qinghe Group students were still in a state of shock not far from them. They were like a group of frightened deer.
Ji Yi walked over to Ren Xiaosu and asked in a low voice, "How's the situation? Do we need to escape from the forward operating base?"
"There's no need." Ren Xiaosu shook his head. "The Pyro Company has already taken control of the situation. Someone will probably come looking for us soon."
"That's good." Ji Yi sighed and said, "Before we came out, I promised the principal that I'd bring back as many people as I brought out. If a few of us die on the way here, I'll have broken my promise."
"It's not that serious. The matter you mentioned is easier to resolve," Ren Xiaosu said with a chuckle.
Ji Yi's eyes lit up. Could it be that this guardian was going to protect the Qinghe Group students? Ji Yi did not make this request to Ren Xiaosu because he knew it would be a little too much to ask him to protect so many people. But if it was Ren Xiaosu himself who made the request to protect the students from dying, that would be great.
Ji Yi said anxiously, "You mean …?"
"What I mean is," Ren Xiaosu said, "if someone really dies, let the other students give birth to a few more along the way. That way, when you return, the number of people left will still be the same as before."
Ji Yi was speechless.
Was this even something a human could say?!
He had said before that there would not be one more or one less. But when it came to Ren Xiaosu, his understanding of this sentence was immediately twisted?
Ji Yi sighed in his heart. Actually, Ren Xiaosu was trying to change the topic. It looked like he was not planning to help the Qinghe Group students. However, it was not appropriate for him to say anything. In a war, who would have the spare energy to care about the lives of others?
He glanced at Ren Xiaosu, then at the Qinghe Group students. Then he wondered if they had really protected the students too well in the past.
Although Ren Xiaosu was several years younger than them, Ren Xiaosu had done much more than these Qinghe Group students.
In the past, this young man had even shouldered the safety of the entire Hope Media on his own.
Right now, none of the Qinghe Group students had even removed their makeup. Due to their sweat and tears, they looked extremely miserable.
"I think it's better if you persuade them to return to Luoyang City." Ren Xiaosu said slowly, "Although I know they still have to pay their respects to the soldiers at the front lines, you've also seen how dangerous this war is. If any accidents happen, people will inevitably die."
But Ji Yi sighed and said, "That's the only way. I'll go and tell them about it. Then, the Pyro Company will send someone to escort them back."
"That's the best choice." Ren Xiaosu nodded.
When Ji Yi returned to the group of students, a commotion gradually broke out among them. Ren Xiaosu listened carefully and was surprised to hear a few students raise their voices and speak passionately like hot-blooded youths, "Teacher, what's the Qinghe Group's motto? Be realistic and dare to take the lead. Even Chief Editor Jiang Xu persevered in such a difficult situation. If we shrink back the moment we encounter danger, how can we still have the face to be Qinghe Group's students? "
"That's right. Those from the Trinity Institute who look even younger than us haven't said that they're leaving yet, so how can we leave?"
Ren Xiaosu wondered if they were talking about him!
When Ji Yi heard this, he did not know how to react. 'How can you guys be the same as Ren Xiaosu? He's killed more people than all of you combined.'
Ren Xiaosu listened from afar and thought to himself, 'These students are not very capable, but they're quite arrogant.'
Actually, it was not that these students were incapable. It was just that the skills they had learned could not be used on the battlefield. However, the Qinghe Group was still rather rigorous in their management. Even though the students were scared out of their wits, they still had some backbone.
Otherwise, these people would not have traveled such a long distance to the North to deliver the supplies.
Slowly, the other students were also infected by these impassioned students. They all expressed their unwillingness to leave and vowed to live and die with humanity.
However, Ji Yi did not waste too much time talking to them. He made a decision right away and was prepared to communicate with the Pyro Company about sending the students back after they arrived.
