Chapter 309
Rong Yu's voice was neither light nor heavy, but it pierced straight through Lei Zhan's fury like a sharp knife.Lei Zhan's face darkened as he took a sudden step forward. Rong Yu, stop changing the subject. The breaking of the flagpole is a major mistake. As the flag bearer, you couldn't even do the most basic inspection. What right do you have to stand here?
He deliberately raised his voice, drawing the attention of students from other academies who were waiting nearby.
Rong Yu ignored those gazes, the corners of her lips curling up slightly. You're right, the breaking of the flagpole is a major mistake.
She suddenly bent down, picked up a small metal fragment from the bottom of the broken flagpole, and held it up in front of Lei Zhan's eyes. So, I'm very curious, why are there fresh file marks on the broken surface?
Lei Zhan's pupils shrank.
Rong Yu sneered. If a metal fracture is due to natural aging, the cross-section should be evenly worn. But this mark was made by a file. It's artificial, and it's very fresh, no more than half an hour old.
The entire area instantly fell silent.
A large group of students leaned in and looked closely. It really is. It's definitely an artificial mark. Who did this? Who would do such a thing?
Rong Yu looked calmly at Lei Zhan.
Lei Zhan's expression changed, but he quickly sneered again. What do you mean? Are you trying to say I did it? Do you have any proof?
Proof?
Rong Yu chuckled lightly. She suddenly reached out, grabbed his wrist, and flipped his palm over. There, impressively, remained a few traces of fine powder.
Is this the flagpole's exterior paint?
Lei Zhan yanked his hand back, his face livid. I... I just helped check it!
Quibbling is meaningless because the surveillance cameras captured everything! The chief instructor walked over, his voice suddenly rising. Do you even know the severity of sabotaging the military training performance? Huaqing's sports students are supposed to be the chosen ones. How can there be a student with such low moral character!
Lei Zhan opened his mouth. I, I...
The music from the broadcast was rousing, and the chief instructor couldn't be bothered to listen to him anymore. Good, very good. I now announce that you have lost your qualification as a flag guard. Get out of the formation right now! After the performance, wait for the school's disciplinary action!
Lei Zhan's face was full of disbelief.
The chief instructor pointed at Luo Xuan. You take Lei Zhan's place. Stand in position and prepare to march!
The march reached its climax.
The flag guard formation was ready and slowly walked towards the sports field.
Rong Yu, carrying the bright red flag on her shoulder, strode onto the main track.
The sunlight spilled on her tall and straight figure. The red flag fluttered loudly behind her, as if cheering for her.
In the spectator stands, the crowd cheered.
The leading female flag bearer is our Huaqing's campus belle!
She can walk so effortlessly while carrying the flag. No wonder she made a name for herself across the whole school during military training!
This is the true demeanor of Huaqing students!
Rong Yu looked straight ahead without glancing sideways, walking past the rostrum step by step.
She could feel the weight of the flagpole on her shoulder, and even more so, the weight of this responsibility. When she reached the front of the rostrum, she forcefully raised the flag upwards. The bright red flag shone brilliantly in the sunlight, as if declaring to everyone: Huaqing freshmen are fearless!
Old Master Ji shouted loudly, Rong Yu! Rong Yu!
Old Master Si was extremely excited, his youthful passion also ignited. He stood up and yelled, Look here! Rong Yu! We are here!
Old Master Hai pushed him aside. You two are blocking the light. Stand aside!
Click, click, click, he kept taking photos.
Rong Yu finished her lap and then immediately met up with her classmates from the Tianxingjian class, joining the class formation to walk another lap around the field.
The class formation leaders were supposed to be one boy and one girl, but Xue Yun wasn't interested in these things, and Yu Kexin was too weak. Therefore, two boys were chosen: one was Sheng Ciyuan, and the other was Song Huai.
The host's voice rang out from the broadcast: Now walking towards us is Huaqing's Tianxingjian class. They take 'As heaven maintains vigor through movement, a gentleman should constantly strive for self-perfection' as their motto. Their steps are sonorous, their gazes like torches. The students in the formation are lined up like pines, shining like iron armor reflecting the sun...
The class stopped at the rostrum, and Sheng Ciyuan and Song Huai roared loudly, Our slogan is—
The whole class shouted in unison, Tread the mountains and rivers! Strive for self-perfection! Those of Tianxingjian! Never surrender!
Warm applause broke out.
The spirited formations performed one after another.
After the Tianxingjian class finished their performance, the class monitor Duan Fei waited for them at the end, handing out mineral water to them one by one.
Last time during the weighted cross-country run, he broke his leg and stayed in the hospital for a week before being discharged. He still hadn't fully recovered, but at such an important moment, as the class monitor, he had to be present.
Rong, you really stole the show today.
A voice speaking broken Chinese sounded.
Rong Yu looked up and saw Sato. She took a sip of mineral water and gave a fake smile. It's a pity that Sato-kun will never have the chance to steal such a show. Who told your Sakura Country not to have the qualification to organize university military training?
Sato's face stiffened.
In World War II, Sakura Country suffered a crushing defeat, so they were severely restricted in military aspects.
He took a breath and said, Rong, I genuinely want to be friends with you. I hope we can make progress together on the Huaqing campus.
After saying that, he suddenly took out a bouquet of flowers from behind his back. To the most beautiful female soldier in Huaqing.
Sheng Ciyuan quickly put down his mineral water, squeezed between the two, and said coldly, Sato, do you know how many people want to give flowers and love letters to Rong Yu every day? Go line up on the side first.
Sato asked, Alright, then I'll line up first. I hope to have the opportunity to have dinner with Rong.
Rong Yu was speechless.
She felt disgusted just seeing people from Sakura Country.
Just then, her phone rang. She answered the call while walking out.
Hello, may I ask if this is the guardian of student Ji Zhouye?
Rong Yu's brow furrowed, and she walked to a quiet place. I am. What happened to Ji Zhouye?
I am Ji Zhouye's university counselor. From the beginning of military training until now, Ji Zhouye has been late or left early without reason four times. Today is the school-wide military training performance, and he is the team leader, but he suddenly disappeared and can't be reached. The negative impact is a small matter, but I'm worried about his personal safety...
Okay, counselor. I'll contact him right away.
Rong Yu hung up the phone and immediately dialed Ji Zhouye's number, but it couldn't connect, constantly showing no answer.
She suddenly thought of something and went online to check the movements of the XY esports team. Sure enough, at nine o'clock this morning, the team captain Yaoyao arrived in the capital. The esports competition started at ten o'clock, and the winner still hadn't been decided.
This kid had been so infatuated with that Yaoyao recently. He posted about Yaoyao almost every day on his social media. He actually had the audacity to skip the military training performance to watch the esports competition. This kid's skin must be itching for a beating.
What's wrong? Old Master Ji ran over to the field to find her. Did something happen?
Rong Yu smiled and said, It's nothing serious. Let's go home first.
She sent a message to Butler Yu, arranging for people to wait outside the competition venue, making sure to bring Lao Wu home as soon as possible.
