Girls und War

501. Dear netizens, please tell me the source of this picture. Thank you.

There weren't many people on the bus, and they were of a relatively high age group.

According to Xia Shu's observation, they were all old men and women around one or two hundred years old.

Of course there are young people too, but they seem to be far less interested in old cities in the suburbs than in bustling cities.

Therefore, these people only account for a small proportion of the people on the train.

And Xia Shu, a cute girl who doesn't fit in with the surrounding environment, easily attracted the attention of most people.

Many of them are probably just ordinary people from all walks of life, not very familiar with the little knowledge in the military fan circle. Seeing the rare military uniform worn by Xia Shu, they may not recognize it.

So a boy who was particularly interested secretly took a photo and posted it on a social platform.

Then I made a post about it.

[Title: I went to visit my grandpa today and saw a very cute girl in the car]

Look at this girl, she is so beautiful.

The clothes she's wearing are so cool, is it professional attire for some profession? She looks so stylish.

Is there anyone who can answer my question?

Wait online.

-

It wasn't long before someone responded to her post.

As a social community for ordinary people, the understanding of military affairs is not very in-depth.

Therefore, the people who replied in the early stage were also not very clear about it, and only stayed at "Wow, so cute!", "Can the OP please give me the other party's contact information? My friend said he is a little interested", "The previous one is not polite, how can you ask for contact information when meeting? I'll wait online too." and other such messages.

It wasn't until the popularity of this post suddenly increased in a short period of time that professionals came in to answer:

"Replying to the original poster, this is the military uniform for the Flower District. Generally, only active-duty military personnel are allowed to wear it."

When the netizens who were watching saw this message, they were immediately filled with strong emotions.

"What? Active duty military? Really military?"

"She's really cool! From this point of view, her standing posture is so stylish! Love it!"

"So where's the contact information?"

"I want all the information about this woman within one minute."

"I second the proposal"

"Second +1"

……

Soon, this post became a hot topic.

The boy taking the photo was a little startled, and he started to steal glances at Xia Shu more often.

Xia Shu naturally discovered that someone was secretly watching her, or she was very clear that many people in the car were secretly looking at her.

But wearing a military uniform meant being prepared for public scrutiny. So, Natsuki simply straightened his body and stared intently out the window.

After the boy secretly took two more photos, the message "The target of the photo is in a sensitive identity locked state and cannot continue" appeared in front of the camera.

It was the first time the man saw such a prompt, so he took a screenshot of the message and uploaded it to the post along with the photos he had taken.

"I'm the original poster. Thank you all for answering my questions. Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, I took a few more photos. But there's a strange hint, I don't know what it means, let me show it to you."

Not long after, someone replied to him:

"Sensitive identity locked, it looks like it's the real deal."

"This is a photography restriction set to protect the privacy of soldiers. It seems that each person can only take a photo of a soldier three times."

"Looking at the box on her back, it's the shape and size of a long rifle."

"Real gun?"

"Is this true? Just blow it upstairs."

"Damn it! I want to see a few more!"

"So where's the contact information?"

"Looking at his rank, he's a sergeant. All you stupid netizens, hurry up and take action! It's easy to find a girl with the rank of sergeant, right?"

"That's a stupid dog upstairs, identified. There are probably thousands of female sergeants in the Flower District, and they're so easy to find. Why don't you become a military spy?"

"You curse again!"

"Found it. Xia Shu, the ace sniper of the Red Dragon Squadron, a frontline combat unit in the Flower District. He's been in the army for less than a year and is a legendary star NCO. The OP is so lucky to have met him. You can check out this link; it's Xia Shu's combat record. It's quite impressive."

"Worship the Great God Upstairs"

"The great god is awesome"

"Great God is awesome +1"

……

When the boy saw this, he clicked on the link and saw a row of very cool video thumbnails.

This is a dynamic website made for Xia Shu by a fanatical fan of her. It contains a lot of Xia Shu's data and information.

The boy took a look and suddenly felt a burning emotion in his heart. He wanted to go over and ask for Xia Shu's contact information and whether he could add her as a friend or something.

But when he looked up, Xia Shu had disappeared.

She has already gotten off at her stop.

The boy felt a sense of loss in his heart, but he still looked at Xia Shu's battle record on the website.

When he got off the train a few hours later, there was another die-hard fan of Xia Shu in the world.

What he and Xia Shu didn't know was that this post was quickly pushed to the top ten of the online community's most popular posts.

It seems that no matter what era or social situation, ordinary people are always very interested in soldiers.

So Xia Shu became a little famous on the Internet without even realizing it.

However, even if she knew, she probably wouldn't care.

After walking out of the old station, Xia Shu hailed a tattered little taxi next to the station.

The appearance of this taxi looks like a tractor that was buried in a field for more than ten years and then dug out of the pit due to land planning.

After sitting inside, a strong smell of engine oil came out.

It looked like an antique mechanical car, the kind that Jia's artist father liked to drive.

The driver was also a community service robot that had been used for who knows how many years. Looking at the creaking appearance of it, Xia Shu even suspected that it would fall apart while moving.

After she sent the address to the robot, the robot flew out of the station and drove towards its destination at an extremely low altitude on the track.

Xia Shu looked down at the ground within reach and thought that this was not so bad.

What if this broken car falls to the ground? At least at this height, there is no threat to your life, right?

However, what Xia Shu worried about did not happen in the end.

The broken car swayed all the way from the station to the residential area of ​​the town, and no accidents occurred along the way.

When they arrived at their destination, Xia Shu got out of the car, and the robot said again with its almost broken voice machine, "Please take care."

Then he staggered up from the taxi stand and drove back in the direction he came from.

502.A kite

After watching the taxi leave, Xia Shu turned around and observed the environment of the town.

The location here is on the edge of an old city. Looking towards the city, you can see many half-weathered high-rise buildings.

Vines covered the walls of the city, bringing a hint of hope amidst the destruction.

It's like some doomsday scene.

Semi-weathered cities like this are often the setting for games and movies, and a glance at them can spark countless fantasies.

The small town where Xia Shu lives is even more quaint and primitive.

An old, battered wooden fence, a faded hotel sign. A few elderly men sat by the roadside playing cards, and a fat orange cat basked in the sun on a low rooftop.

If it weren't for the fact that the holographic panel could be called out at will, Xia Shu would have even thought that time had gone back several centuries and she had traveled back in time again.

Xia Shu walked to the side of the low house, stared at the fat cat on the roof and meowed twice.

The fat cat opened his eyes, glanced at Xia Shu, yawned loudly, then propped up his dozens of pounds of fat, twisted his butt with great difficulty, and left Xia Shu's sight.

Natsuki could only sigh and continue walking down the road.

She asked an old man on the street for directions. The old man pointed forward and then continued to be immersed in his card game, ignoring her.

Xia Shu searched for a long time before he found the house number on a remote road.

There is no navigation here, so it is not easy to find the location.

Glancing at the white-haired old lady dozing off in the sun at the door, Xia Shu walked into the mechanic shop in front of him, which didn't even have a sign, and asked loudly, "Is anyone there?"

There was no one in the repair shop. Xia Shu muttered, "At least they could have a robot clerk?" Then he asked again, "Is anyone there?"

The old lady at the door seemed to wake up from her nap and replied to the inside of the store, "He's out, he's out."

Xia Shu came out and smiled at the old lady, "Excuse me..."

The old lady waved her hands, as if she was too lazy to listen to Xia Shu's words, and just repeated "Go out, go out".

Xia Shu could only nod awkwardly, then sat on a small bench inside and waited patiently.

This wait lasted for several hours.

When the sun was setting and she began to doze off with the gun case in her arms, someone finally came into the repair shop carrying a bunch of mechanical parts.

Xia Shu was woken up and looked up to see a mature red-haired woman wearing a messy white vest and holding a pipe in her mouth walking into the store.

She quickly stood up and tried to greet the woman. The woman saw Xia Shu, nodded briefly, then turned to the old woman and said, "Okay, you can go back now. You don't need to look around here anymore."

The old lady knocked on the wheelchair and let the automatic navigation device slowly take her away from the store.

Xia Shu's gaze followed the wheelchair away when another clang sounded from the shop door. She turned around and saw the red-haired woman throwing a pile of unknown machine parts into the corner.

The woman wiped her hands and tied her burgundy hair back with a black rubber band before turning to Xia Shu and asking, "Have you been here for a long time?"

Xia Shu shook his head, too lazy to speak.

She was really fed up with waiting. There was no beginning or end to this matter, and no one said a word, just letting her wait here in vain.

Fortunately, Xia Shu has a good temper. If he had a smiling face, he would have turned his head and walked away.

The woman looked Xia Shu up and down, squinting her eyes as if examining a commodity. Then she nodded, seemingly approving of her first impression of Xia Shu.

But Xia Shu didn't recognize her much.

Just by looking at how messy the machine repair shop was, Xia Shu could already imagine what kind of person this woman was.

Judging from the results, there was no reversal. The owner of the repair shop was not some tsundere loli with blonde twintails, but a nasty old smoker with a bad temper.

But in order to save face for Doragon and Mimi, Xia Shu still took the initiative to extend his hand and greeted the old woman with a cigarette in her mouth, "Hello, Sergeant Kite. I am Xia Shu, a sniper from the Red Dragon Squadron."

Feng Zheng nodded and repeated the name "Xia Shu". He then stretched out his oil-stained hand, shook hands with Xia Shu, and said, "I heard about you from Jia Mei."

Xia Shu's expression did not change at all when he felt the smooth touch on his hand.

After they separated their hands, Feng Zheng continued nonchalantly, "Almost in the world's top ten, right? Having defeated the top player in the ocean area, he's bound to be ranked above the waterline next time."

Xia Shu heard the subtle disdain in her words, so he just raised the corner of his mouth symbolically and did not respond.

Feng Zheng didn't expect Xia Shu to say anything nice. He simply walked to the side, took out the used e-liquid from the pipe, and threw it away.
