Reborn as an Armed Police Officer: I Became an All-Round Soldier King Through Duty

Chapter 28 Night Watch

Just then, Bao Cheng walked up to him and asked in a low voice:

Don't overthink what happened in the washroom. Just focus on doing your best.

Zhou Heng was taken aback for a moment, then nodded.

"Squad leader, I understand!"

"Good that you understand."

Bao Cheng nodded.

"Now it's not just your boss who's watching you."

"Your fellow recruits, veterans, and people from other companies will all be watching you."

Some admire him, some envy him.

"There are definitely people who don't like you."

Zhou Heng's heart sank.

He naturally understood Bao Cheng's meaning.

The conversation in the washroom today already foreshadowed something.

Bao Cheng continued:

"Don't bother explaining to anyone; it's pointless!"

"Just remember this!"

"stable!"

"No problems, no mistakes."

"As long as you stand firm, what others say doesn't matter!"

Zhou Heng nodded earnestly.

"yes!"

Bao Cheng looked at him.

"Okay, go to sleep now."

"The whistle will sound again soon, so you absolutely mustn't doze off!"

"yes!"

After the lights were turned off, the classroom quickly quieted down.

I don't know how much time passed.

Sleepiness finally crept in little by little.

Zhou Heng gradually drifted off to sleep...

In the darkness, someone gently nudged his body.

"Zhou Heng?"

"Wake up!"

Zhou Heng opened his eyes groggily.

"what?"

Bao Cheng stood by the bed, holding a small lamp in his hand, the light dimmed.

"On guard duty!"

So fast?

Without a second thought, Zhou Heng immediately sat up.

But as soon as I moved my body, all my muscles ached.

Especially the calves and abdomen, they looked like they had been hit with a stick.

But he didn't dawdle.

Get up and get dressed.

Wear a hat and a belt.

At this point, Bao Cheng had already gone out to call the other sentries.

After getting ready, Zhou Heng washed his face. It would be a lie to say he wasn't sleepy.

In the hall, several veterans were already sitting and dozing off.

After a while,

Bao Cheng came down.

"Form up!"

"Report your numbers!"

"one!"

"two!"

.....

"eight!"

"At ease!"

"Require!"

"Stay alert at your posts, don't doze off, the leaders are watching."

Report any issues immediately!

Did you hear me clearly?

"Listen carefully!"

The crowd responded in hushed tones.

The lobby was dimly lit in the early morning, and everyone kept their voices down so as not to wake the people resting upstairs.

Bao Cheng glanced at the time.

"Set off!"

"Forward march!"

The team left the squadron building.

A gentle breeze instantly sobered Zhou Heng up; the weather would get colder soon.

Bao Cheng walked along the side of the line, glancing back at the queue from time to time.

His gaze was mainly fixed on Zhou Heng.

Zhou Heng is in pretty good shape.

Although she had just woken up and her face was still a little tired, her eyes were clear.

Upon arrival at their posts, the veterans organized a handover, with each post following procedures to exchange equipment and report on passwords.

When it was Zhou Heng's turn, the previous guard on the fourth post was a veteran from the emergency response team.

Upon seeing Zhou Heng approach, the old soldier glanced at him first, then chuckled softly:

"Oh, a celebrity has arrived."

Zhou Heng did not respond to this question.

He stood up straight, saluted, and then said:

"Take over!"

The veteran was taken aback, then his smile faded.

"Shift change!"

After the handover was completed, the veteran saluted him according to procedure.

"Shift handover complete!"

Before the old soldier went down, he glanced at him one last time.

"Cheer up, a lot of people are watching you."

Zhou Heng nodded.

"clear!"

After the veteran left, Sentry Post No. 4 fell silent. In the distance, the lights of the prison cell were on, and searchlights occasionally swept across the walls.

But there was no sound.

In the quiet, Zhou Heng could hear the crackling of electricity coming from inside the duty station.

But he did not let his guard down because of this; the presence of light does not mean there are no blind spots.

Zhou Heng's gaze moved slowly.

ground,

Inside the prison area,

prison walls

Lighting boundary.....

He took in every single place.

at this time,

Bao Cheng's voice came through the walkie-talkie.

"Sentry number four."

Zhou Heng responded immediately:

"Sentry number four received!"

"Please give instructions!"

"Nothing unusual was found, right?"

"Report: No anomalies found!"

The walkie-talkie was silent for a second.

"Maintain vigilance and continue to observe!"

"yes!"

In the duty room.

Bao Cheng put down the walkie-talkie and looked at the monitor screen.

Zhou Heng, standing at sentry post number four, was standing very straight; he just needed to maintain that posture.

This is the price of fame.

In the past, if I made a mistake, a scolding would be enough.

Things are different now; now everyone knows him.

Everyone was staring at him.

His mistakes will be magnified infinitely.

Therefore, we cannot be careless in the slightest!

……

On the fourth sentry post.

Time passed little by little.

2:10.

2:20.

2:30.

At first, when the night breeze blew, Zhou Heng was quite awake.

But after standing for half an hour, drowsiness began to creep up.

This is not a matter of will.

This is a natural bodily response; if you're too tired during the day, you'll feel sleepy more at night.

Moreover, two or three in the morning is when people are most likely to feel sleepy.

But Zhou Heng knew perfectly well that he couldn't doze off!

Switch from shoulder to arm.

Press your thumb against the sling.

honestly,

It's very uncomfortable.

But it's the discomfort that helps me fight off sleepiness!

Swimming

observe,

Continue swimming.

Once.

Twice.

Three times.

This helped to suppress my drowsiness quite a bit.

Just then, the mechanical voice of the system suddenly rang in my mind.

[Host detected on night duty]

[Duty progress is being accumulated...]

[Duty Experience +1]

Zhou Heng's spirits were greatly lifted.

Goodness, this is real progress grinding!

Zhou Heng looked at the distant prison wall and silently straightened his posture even more.

add.

Add as much as possible!

It's exactly three o'clock.

The walkie-talkie rang again.

"Sentry number four."

"Sentry number four received!"

"Report the situation!"

"Report: Sentry post number four is operating normally!"

"Keep it up."

"yes!"

Bao Cheng's voice remained calm.

But Zhou Heng knew that Bao Cheng had definitely been watching him.

Moreover, this wasn't actually a question, but rather a reminder not to get sleepy!

3:10.

A peculiar buzzing sound suddenly rang out.

Zhou Heng took a step forward.

After ruling out that the sound was coming from the duty station, he looked down at the surveillance footage and found that there was nothing unusual at any of the four corners of the sentry post.

But the buzzing sound grew louder and louder, so Zhou Heng went to check the air conditioner at the sentry post.

Just as I walked to the air conditioner,

Bao Cheng's voice then rang out from the duty station.

"Sentry post number four, what are you observing?"

"Have you noticed anything unusual?"

Zhou Heng returned to the duty station.

"Report!"

"A strange buzzing sound is coming from around Outpost No. 4. I'm looking for the source of the sound!"

Bao Cheng frowned.

A buzzing sound?

Why is there a buzzing sound around the sentry post?

"Continue searching for the source of the sound!"
