2649: Their Faith

Their Faith

The leader said helplessly, "I'll report to the leader of the academy and rush over immediately." As he spoke, the leader teased, "How was sleeping in the garrison room for the night? How do you feel?"2

"I don't feel anything much. I just feel that our school is really strict. Last night, I almost fought with them. Fortunately, I endured it. Male students often say that it's not easy to deal with them. I didn't have any opinion on it in the past, but I finally know what it feels like."

The leader couldn't help but laugh. "That's because you rarely go to the campus. Even if you do, you're a model soldier. One look and we know you're qualified.

"However, you can't blame us for this. Ye Jian, you're a smart student. I believe that you can understand without me saying anything. Inspections need to be done at all times to be able to have a restraining effect. Sometimes, when our students go out of training and relax a little, their bad habits will be revealed. Inspectors are responsible for watching them at all times and correcting the bad habits of the students.

"We all know that you returned to school in the middle of the night because of special circumstances, but the inspectors weren't aware of that. Thus, they had to carry out their duties. You can't feel aggrieved.

"They're soldiers. They bear their responsibilities too. You're a student, so you should be inspected by them. Even if their way of dealing with things wasn't good, they'll only make a move if you don't meet the requirements of a soldier.

"Do you think they'll make things difficult for the students for no reason? No, they only target mistakes, not people. They don't deliberately target students.

"Just like you, Ye Jian. You're a freshman. I believe that the inspection team has heard of your name, but they didn't let you off just because it's you. This shows that they handled things fairly."

As Ye Jian had to sleep in the garrison room all night, he was worried that Ye Jian would file a complaint which would lead to an investigation in the future. Hence, he was extremely careful and tried to enlighten her so that Ye Jian would relax.

At 6 am in the morning, the school was already very lively. Deafening sounds of exercises came from the sports ground. After a week of vacation, all the classes started a new round of studies.

The students from an unknown class wore the same summer sportswear and shouted in unison, "One, two, three…" They passed through the track under the shady forest and started their morning run of three to five kilometers every morning.

Ye Jian listened to the familiar sounds of exercise. After the leader finished speaking, she smiled and said, "I understand what you're saying. I don't feel aggrieved. It's just that they wanted to confiscate my identification document at that time. I explained it many times, but it didn't work. I was indeed a little angry at that time.

"However, it's not to the point where I wanted to quarrel with them. If I had really quarreled with them, it would've been my fault regardless of whether I had a reason or not.

"They have their own responsibilities, and I understand that. I won't complain after being locked up in the garrison room for a few hours."

As she spoke, Ye Jian teased herself, "I think that if it wasn't for last night, it would've been very difficult to enter this place. Not every student can stay in the garrison room for a night. I'll treat it as an experience. It'll be a special memory of my military school life."

The leader was relieved when he saw that she didn't complain at all. He smiled and said, "Students aren't the only ones who get arrested. The leaders of the school have been arrested too."

"There was once when a brigade commander from a certain combat unit came over. Because he didn't buckle his military ID properly, he was caught and had to hand over his military ID. Then, he buckled his military ID properly and was reprimanded by the inspectors before he was allowed to leave."
