Girls und War

Maybe if Bai Nanhua has the opportunity in the future, she will also choose to join the army.

But no one knew what Xia Shu looked like at that time.

As for her now, she took an old trolleybus to the urban area, changed to another bus, and returned to the Red Dragon Squadron camp on the same day.

It so happened that when she came back, she encountered the squadron gathering and preparing to leave.

All members of the squadron have also had their holiday during this period and are now heading to the competition center to participate in the exercise rehearsal.

After Natsuki and Dragon talked about what had happened during this period, Dragon did not let her go with the squadron members.

However, Smiley Face somehow heard the news that Xia Shu had returned to the team, and hurried over, apparently wanting to invite her to report to the competition center together.

Naturally, Natsuki had no objection, so he said goodbye to Dragon and put the training gun back into the armory.

It's funny to say that from the time this competition-model training gun was taken out of the armory until Xia Shu put the gun back, it had never been fired.

By the time she put away her gun, changed into formal clothes, and prepared to leave with Smiley Face, Doragon had already left with the squadron in a car.

Seeing that he didn't get on the car, Xia Shu turned to look at the smiling face.

Smiley Face seemed to understand Xia Shu's expression, so he called the camp management department in front of her and requested a bus.

"Is this possible?" Xia Shu was a little surprised. She had never tried this before and seemed to not know that she could directly apply to the camp management department for a car.

"Then how do you plan your trips every time you go out?" This time it was Smiley Face's turn to be confused.

"Public transportation. It's free for military personnel anyway." Xia Shu said very naturally.

"Haha...you really are saving money for the Camp Management Department." A smile revealed an expression of enlightenment. "Everyone said you were a direct descendant of the fake sleeper, but I didn't believe it. Now that I see you care so much about her, I'm a little suspicious."

Xia Shu was speechless. What did this have to do with anything?

After a while, a small military vehicle stopped at the gate of the Red Dragon Squadron's camp.

Xia Shu checked the things he should bring again, and after confirming that they were all correct, he and Xiao Lian got on the military vehicle in front of them.

After several hours of high-altitude orbital travel, Xia Shu once again crossed half of the planet and arrived at the venue of the war zone competition.

——Near Moon Air Base.

514. Olympic-like war zone competition

The Near Moon Military Base is a military base located high in the atmosphere, orbiting the planet at a constant speed.

Because this military base is closest to the lunar orbit and runs almost synchronously with the moon, it is the closest military base to the lunar military center within the atmosphere, so it is also called the lunar orbit base.

This base, like New Soldier City, was a cooperative base jointly managed and developed by the entire war zone alliance. Therefore, each war zone had a military liaison office there.

Each major military zone on the planet would also rotate in charge of the base, with each term taking place annually. Therefore, the zone in charge each year would naturally be the host of the annual zone competition.

This year's host country is the Snow District, so Xia Shu and the others are not very clear about the specific rules of the competition.

That's why Smiley and Doragon reported several days in advance so they could familiarize themselves with the rules first, so they wouldn't have to re-acquaint themselves with the rules if they discovered any changes a few days later.

The entire military base is very majestic and spectacular. From a distance, it looks like a small island floating in the sky.

This area was a military restricted zone, and civilian vehicles were prohibited from entering. The military vehicle carrying Xia Shu and Xiao Lian waited outside for a moment until the traffic control center confirmed their identities and allowed them to enter.

There were many other vehicles joining the competition. Xia Shu saw through the car window that many aerial cars from all directions were gathering here.

Many vehicles were parked outside the restricted area waiting to enter, and judging by how fast they were queuing, it was quite fast.

After the two people slid into the lunar orbit base along the predetermined track, they landed in the parking lot under the guidance of the guidance robot.

After the two got off the car, the robot took them to the registration office and waited at the reporting window for a while.

To demonstrate the importance the ski resort places on the competition, the handover and reporting process is done manually, with each team having a dedicated person responsible for the handover.

The two waited at the reporting window for a while, and then a female officer from the snow area came over, saluted, and greeted them with a smile.

"Hello, are you Miss Xia Shu and Miss Smiley?" the young lady asked while shaking hands with them.

"Yes, I'm Smiley and she's Xia Shu." Smiley gestured to the younger sister.

The young lady couldn't help but nodded, and said, "Who of you two doesn't know each other? No need for introduction."

"Ah? Is that so?" Smiley Face laughed and touched his head.

"Then, you two should be the specially invited contestants of this competition. Have you brought the invitation?" The young lady said to them seriously.

"I brought it." Xia Shu nodded and took out the gold-embossed invitation from his shirt pocket.

The young lady said, "Thank you very much for your cooperation," and then she gently ran her palm over the invitation, and then received an identity confirmation message.

Smiling Face searched his body left and right but couldn't find the invitation for a long time.

"Ah... I think I forgot to bring it." She said a little embarrassedly.

"Well, do you have your officer ID with you?" the young lady asked with a smile, her expression unchanged.

"Hmm..." Smiley Face started touching his body again.

Xia Shu showed an incredible expression, thinking, you won't forget this thing, right?

"Got it." Under the gaze of the two people, Xiao Lian finally took out his officer's certificate from his crotch.

Xia Shu was speechless.

"Thank you for your cooperation." The young lady kept smiling and scanned the smiling face of the officer's ID card, but judging from her footsteps, she had taken a small step back imperceptibly.

"So, would you two like to go through the handover rules together?" the young lady continued. "If you're willing to do it simultaneously, it would save me a lot of work."

Xia Shu glanced sideways at the people queuing for the handover next to him. Although there were many people standing there, it was basically the leading officers of each team who were doing the handover work.

It's almost like one person is responsible for each invitation.

Judging by the intensity of the queue, they are indeed very busy. So, to save some time, it would be a good idea for two people to confirm the rules together.

So Xia Shu nodded and said, "Okay."

The young lady looked at the smiling face again.

Smiling Face frowned, was silent for a long time, and then sighed.

Just when the officer from the snowy area thought she had offended Smiley, she suddenly changed her expression and said with a smile, "Of course."

The young lady burst out laughing.

What a living treasure.

Then, the two of them were led by the young lady to a clean and tidy office and sat down. The young lady even prepared two cups of tea for them.

Afterwards, the young lady explained to the two of them in a serious tone the rules that needed to be followed in this competition.

Basically, under the premise of ensuring fairness, justice and openness, military personnel who come to the lunar orbit need to follow the arrangements of the event organizers.

The food and accommodation management during the event will be prepared by the Moon Track Annual Supervisor.

The specific behavioral norms management is mainly based on the interpretation of the event host, and the interpretation of each war zone liaison office can only serve as an auxiliary supplement.

If you have any objections, you can file a complaint with the liaison office of your respective theater. If a participant does not obey the host's management, the host has the right to expel the participant.

Positive rules and regulations like these.

After saying that, the young lady gave Xia Shu and Xiao Lian a copy of the code of conduct formulated by the Snow District.

After the two of them briefly confirmed the above regulations, they signed the confirmation agreement under the guidance of the young lady.

"So from now on, you two are military athletes affiliated with the Lunar Orbital Base. This affiliation will last until the end of the competition. Any other questions?" the young lady finally asked the two.

Natsuki and Smiley both shook their heads.

So the young lady took the two of them out of the office, followed the road to the checkpoint, and pointed to the central hall of the base behind.

"The reception desk for the flower area is three hundred meters behind on the right. If you have any questions, you can consult our staff." The young lady said, and saluted the two of them.

The two returned the gift, and Xia Shu thanked him again.

"You're welcome. Good luck with the game, bye."

After the young lady finished speaking, she quickly walked back.

There are still many teams waiting in line over there. It seems they still have a lot of work to do.

The two of them turned around and walked forward. Smiling, they talked to Xia Shu about the facilities here. It seemed that they were regular customers.

There were a lot of people passing by in the center of the hall, and it seemed that most of them were contestants who came to participate in the competition.

They followed the crowd for a while and then arrived at the reception desk in the flower area.

Xia Shu saw from a distance that a girl was sitting behind the desk at the reception desk playing games.

515. Girls and boys, please protect yourselves to avoid regrets.

These days, the Lunar Orbital Base is the time for players from various battle zones to report and take over.

Many tables and chairs were temporarily placed in the hall, and a large number of guide flags were erected to guide the players from each battle zone to find their own contact hall.

Xia Shu easily found the guiding flag that symbolized the flower area.

A girl in work clothes, no one knew which department she was from, was sitting under the flag with a thermos next to her, playing games while waiting for someone to report.

Xia Shu was just about to go up and say hello when Smiley Face suddenly stopped her.

Xia Shu didn't know what she meant. She smiled wickedly, put on a pose, walked to the table, and coughed lightly.

The girl was so frightened that she quickly threw the game interface to the background.

But when he looked up, he saw the smiling face of an old acquaintance, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You scared me."

"Ha! You're slacking off again. I caught you." He said with a smile as if to say, "You bad guy."

"Why? It's not our turn this year, and you still don't allow me to slack off?" The girl curled her lips, looking disdainful.

Xia Shu walked up and nodded to the girl.

The girl's eyes sparkled with stars. She quickly shook Xia Shu's hand and said in surprise, "You are! You are Xia Shu!"

"Uh..." Xia Shu nodded hesitantly.

"This guy is your fan, his name is Andang." Smiley explained, "But you don't have to remember him, he's just a minor character anyway."

"Who said I'm a small fry?" Andang said with an unhappy look on his face, "I'll take care of your life in the lunar orbital base, okay?"

Smiling Face poked her face with his hand and said, "It's just a cricket clerk."

"Hmph!" Andang turned his face away, ignoring the smile, and instead asked Xia Shu to be friends with him in a flattering manner.

Xia Shu naturally had no reason to refuse, so he obediently opened the social panel.

She glanced around at the crowd and casually asked, "I see a lot of male soldiers here. Are they here to participate in the competition as well?"

After adding Xia Shu as her friend, Ms. Andang seemed very satisfied. As she turned on the camera, she said, "You can't discriminate against the era of cold weapons. Come, look here and smile."

So Xia Shu made a scissors hand gesture towards the camera.

"Don't worry, the men's and women's dormitories are separate. You will definitely not be harassed." Smiley Face said with a smile.

"That's not what I meant." Xia Shu wanted to explain something, but Miss Andou suddenly took out two paper forms and placed them in front of them.

"Come, sign. This is your receipt for your belongings. You will use this form to get daily necessities from the warehouse later." An Tang pointed to the form in front of them.

The two signed the form as instructed, and then Andang summoned a guide robot to remind them where to go next.

They nodded, Xiaolian joked with Andang for a few more words, and then followed the guide robot into the depths of the hall.

Then two more male soldiers came over, smiled at Andang, and said, "Excuse me..."

"What are you laughing about?! Do you look like a soldier?" An Tang said sternly, "You represent the image of the Flower District here! Pay attention!"

The two little boys quickly straightened their posture.

"That's right. Sign this and get your groceries later."

After the two left, An Tang looked at them and muttered, "Cricket cold weapon soldiers wearing modern military uniforms. It looks awkward no matter how you look at it."

The two boys had already walked away by now, otherwise, would they have become even more depressed after hearing what Andang said?

But the discrimination faced by male soldiers in the military is probably commonplace.
