Ye Nai’s van indeed didn’t receive any visitors, and all seven laborers boarded one vehicle. She also clearly heard the team mber responsible for driving telling the laborers to smoke less, not to avoid setting the vehicle on fire.
Before five thirty, Ye Nai felt the car start moving. As the last car in the line, the view outside the window on the door was quite nice.
For the next few hours, they were on the road. The Five Bridges Secret Realm had both forested and foothill terrains. The foothills were generally flat with minor undulations and should be easy to drive through, but clearly, the van she was in was not included.
Ye Nai was so jostled by the bumping car that she had no appetite to eat anything. She was afraid she might choke to death on a bite of a rice ball after a sudden bump.
It was even shakier than her motorcycle.
She seriously doubted that the van had been modified according to outdoor off-roading specifications.
She held on until noon when the main force stopped for a rest. The logistics deputy team leader ca to check on the cabinet situation and told the laborers to rest up by themselves, as they wouldn’t start cooking at noon, instead waiting to set up camp in the evening.
Before Ye Nai got off the van, she had already tidied up her sleeping mat, leaving only a stool and her backpack. When the deputy team leader ca over and saw the inside of the van as clean and tidy as when they had set off, with no odd sll, he even praised that indeed, won love cleanliness.
Because compared to this van, when the door to another van carrying seven big n was opened, a thick cloud of smoke billowed out, as if a smoke grenade had gone off inside. The deputy team leader was coughing from the strong sll.
Actually, it was just the smoke from the seven laborers who had been smoking all the way, and the smoke had been trapped inside the van without dissipating.
With such a stark contrast, of course, they thought well of Ye Nai.
After getting off the car, Ye Nai walked around aimlessly, thinking about how she could disappear for a few minutes in front of so many people to visit the bathroom in her own Secret Realm. That’s when she suddenly saw a long row of what seed like portable toilets in the distance and imdiately ran towards them.
Upon getting closer, they indeed turned out to be portable toilets, split into n’s and won’s sides, with many people queuing up.
While waiting in line for the won’s toilet, Ye Nai even specifically asked around to find out which military team was leading the mission.
The people she asked were all surprised. How could soone on a mission not know who their boss was? But when they found out she was a laborer, they thought it was normal.
Laborers indeed only recognized the boss who paid them.
It wasn’t long before Ye Nai learned that the big boss of this mission was the Mountain Leopard Team.
When her turn ca to use the toilet, she locked the door first and then tried to enter her own East Ridge Secret Realm.
As expected, she was still standing in the sa spot.
This was an anticipated outco, and Ye Nai was not disappointed. In her view, this was rely eliminating a wrong option.
After relieving herself with satisfaction, Ye Nai also quickly checked her follower list on her phone, and the Mountain Leopard Team was on it.
Stay updated through .Côm
Yes, it was one of the several military teams that Brother Xiao Ni had urged her to follow.
Ye Nai laughed out loud on the spot. To et a VIP upon leaving the house was indeed good fortune.
Just like last year on her first visit to Danger Zone No. 5, she had t a VIP, and today, on her first visit to the Five Bridges Secret Realm, she had t another VIP.
Hey, she truly was the chosen girl awakened with a special superpower.
Ye Nai felt bubbly with joy inside, shaking her head and boasting to herself as she packed away her phone and stepped out, standing by the trash can and taking out a wet wipe to clean her hands.
After cleaning her hands, she took out a rice ball from her chest bag while standing a few steps away from the trash can, unwrapping it and chewing slowly.
Just as she was halfway through eating, a patrolling female soldier from the Mountain Leopard Team ca to the area and imdiately noticed Ye Nai, who stood out from the rest. She was still dressed in her casual outfit she had worn when leaving and hadn’t changed into the new sports gear she had bought.
"Hey you, which team are you with? Why are you dressed like that?" the female soldier ca up to Ye Nai, puzzled and calling out to her.
"?" Ye Nai pointed towards the very back of the main force, "I’m with that private team at the back."
"A main team mber?"
"No, no, no, a laborer, for cooking."
"Dressed like that for your first mission with a rcenary team?"
"I was stopped on the street by an agent who said I just needed to know how to cook, not bother with anything else, and I’d get twelve thousand for half a month. It sounded pretty good to ."
"Cornered by an agent just like ducks herded to the perch? Those agents love pulling stunts like this. Next ti you run into them, just keep a straight face and walk away. Don’t stop to engage in conversation."
"That makes sense." Ye Nai scratched her face, with the expression of a foolish rookie receiving a lesson.
"That outfit of yours won’t do at all; it’ll tear at the first brush with a bush." The female soldiers were plainly unable to stand by, watching this greenhorn who got scamd by a sinister agent as soon as she stepped out of her ho or school.
"I’ve bought clothes. They’re in the car. I’ll change into them when we camp for the night."
"Well, that’s sothing. We’ll be traveling during the day, but you’ve got to change clothes at night."
"Yeah, yeah, I’ll definitely change."
"How many people are in the team you joined?"
"Eleven main team mbers and eight laborers."
"Such a small team, no wonder it’s only half a month."
"You know which team is leading the mission, right?"
"I know, I know; the Mountain Leopard Team."
"Right, when we stop to camp in the evening, make sure you know where we are. If there’s danger, run towards the main campsite. You can run fast, can’t you?"
"No problem, rest assured. I’m great at running for my life; I’ll run in your direction if anything’s amiss."
"Okay, generally for big missions, the private teams that co along are pretty disciplined, but just in case, you be smart too."
"Got it, got it, thanks, sisters."
Ye Nai smiled with her eyes curving into crescents as she watched the female soldiers continue their patrol. She gulped down her rice ball and headed back to her unknown team’s spot.
The group of n there were also either munching on dry food or smoking. Seeing Ye Nai return, several of them smiled inexplicably.
Ye Nai glanced at them curiously, climbed into the car she was assigned to, and imdiately understood everything when she saw her backpack.
Her backpack seed to be in its original place but had been tampered with; the arrangent and order of the contents were all ssed up.
No wonder those guys were smiling so oddly just now.
Ye Nai dug through her bag and found a large pack of boxed disposable underwear at the bottom. The seal had been torn open, and the individually wrapped panties were stuffed inside haphazardly. When she poured them out, she found clear oily handprints on two of the packages.
They hadn’t been opened, but their intent was unmistakable. There were also traces of her three sets of outdoor activewear being unpacked and then refolded.
After all, she wasn’t a professional; not many could return clothes to their factory-sealed condition after opening them, and Ye Nai certainly couldn’t.
If this happened to an ordinary person, they’d have to swallow their anger because they didn’t catch the perpetrator; even if they made a fuss, no one would admit to it. Instead, it would provoke laughter. A group of n could say the most indecent things to a young-looking girl, and with just a few words, they could label her a slut.
Since no one would admit to it, they were all accomplices.
She’d deal with them on the road.
