At the research center, Company Commander Zhu, who was in charge of guarding the perimeter, did not have the authority to enter. Ye Chien, who was led by a soldier, had the authority to enter, and could only enter and not leave.
Ye Chien was driving, and the soldier who led the way sat beside him. He did not hide his gaze as he sized up Ye Chien. When he saw how easily Ye Chien drove the Warrior, he smiled and asked, "Were you driving the whole time?"
For a moment, Ye Chien did not know who the other party was or why they had asked her to come over. She only nodded silently.
Everything in front of her was unfamiliar. Ye Chien, who had always been steady, would not allow herself to be passive. The more she spoke, the more mistakes she would make. She had to remember that.
When the soldier saw this, he could not help but laugh. "You're very alert. Relax. We asked you to come over because someone recommended you. Otherwise, we wouldn't have known of your existence."
Someone recommended her?
Recommended her for what?
Although it was cold at 6: 30 in the Gobi Desert, the stars in the sky were densely dotted. The Milky Way was clearly visible, like a silver dragon roaming the heavens.
Ye Chien remained silent and did not let the soldier ask her anything. After walking for about 50 meters, she swept her gaze across a large black object covered by a desert-colored cloth not far from her right.
In the night, it was like a dormant giant beast, waiting for an opportunity to awaken.
Around it, sentries armed with live ammunition were stationed every three steps, guarding the entire "large object." Ye Chien only glanced at it from the corner of her eye when she felt several cold, knife-like gazes sweep over her body.
The sentries stationed every three steps were not ordinary sentries!
Ye Chien's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately looked away, not daring to look again.
As they passed by the "large object," the soldier who led the way led Ye Chien for about 200 meters and arrived in front of a tent. Two sentries were standing guard outside. When they saw someone approaching, one of them blocked the entrance of the tent with his arm. The other soldier with a gun shouted, "Who's there!"
"Ye Chien reporting," the soldier who led the soldier said.
The soldier who was leading the way said. The soldier who blocked the entrance of the tent with his arm retracted his arm, saluted and let them pass.
Ye Chien, who was waiting, could clearly feel several gazes sweeping over her. They were cold, forceful, and extremely tangible.
With his back straight, Ye Chien responded to these gazes with the most indifferent attitude, until all the gazes disappeared.
The soldier who led the way did not send Ye Chien inside. "Our captain is inside. He will arrange your position."
Even now, Ye Chien still did not understand why he had asked her to come here. The sentries standing guard outside, the soldiers leading the way, and the sentries standing guard by the tent were obviously from the same unit as the sentries standing beside the black behemoth. Furthermore, they were not ordinary soldiers.
It was heavily guarded, and the soldiers were all elite. What was she supposed to do?
Ye Chien lifted the tent flap and walked in. Inside the tent, she saw three officers with higher ranks than her standing in front of a sand table and pointing at something.
When they saw her enter, one of them, a young lieutenant colonel in his late twenties, smiled at Ye Chien and said with a smile, "Ye Chien, right? My surname is Lei, and I'm the captain of the sentries outside. Please wait for a moment. I'll look for you after I'm done talking to the two of them."
He did not even let Ye Chien say "reporting in" before instructing Ye Chien to wait for a moment.
The other two soldiers were both majors. They were also very young, in their early twenties. They smiled at Ye Chien politely and then lowered their heads to continue listening to their captain.
Ye Chien stood to the side and quietly listened to their conversation.
