With that, the three women looked at Lin Yi.
âWhat are you doing?â
âDonât worry, youâll know soon.â Lin Yi smiled.
The three women didnât understand, but they still looked out the window, wanting to know what was going on.
Ten minutes later, they saw people running out of the various exits of the district one after another.
Their clothes were disheveled and they were all in a hurry.
Moreover, these people all had one thing in common. They were all men.
âHahaâ¦â
Ning Che didnât care about his image as he laughed out loud. âWhat did I say? Your Brother Lin has too many tricks up his sleeve. He freed up much parking space at once.â
Qiu Yuluo and Jiang Qing stared at each other for a long time.
Lin Yi was really too experienced!
After such a large group of people left, Lin Yi found a parking spot nearby and parked the car. The three of them then got out.
There were people everywhere at the barbecue stall not far away.
Ning Che walked over first and said to the fat boss who was grilling skewers,
âAre there any seats left?â
Seeing Ning Che arrive, the fat boss wiped the sweat off his forehead and chuckled.
âThere are two tables at the side. You guys can serve yourselves. Take whatever you want to eat. Iâll roast it for you.â
âItâs not my first time here. I know the rules.â
Ning Che called Lin Yi over and moved a table with ease. Then, she took something and handed it to the boss.
Not long after, the golden barbecue was served on the table.
Then, she ordered some more beer, but Jiang Qing did not drink since she planned to drive later.
âQuick, try it. Their food is not bad.â
âIt looks delicious.â Jiang Qing said.
âThis kind of dingy restaurant has the best food. The taste is so much better than that of a big restaurant.â
âThis kind of place attracts people with its taste. If itâs not delicious, no one will come.â Ning Che ate with relish.
âBy the way, Sister Ning, many people asked me about Team 4 during the training test today.â
âI didnât even know how to answer.â
Ning Che shrugged. âI donât know much about Team 4âs situation either. 1 donât have much contact with them. 1 only know that if you donât reach D-class, you wonât be able to enter Team 4. Lin Yiâs skill is obviously enough, but your Sister Qiu and I barely meet the necessary standard.â
âMm? Are they that awesome?â
Lin Yi knew that Team 4 was a very special existence in the Central Guards Brigade. Their average level was higher than that of the other three teams.
However, with Qiu Yuluo and Ning Cheâs standards, they were only considered entry-level for the team. This was quite terrifying.
âIndeed, itâs been that way since we joined the Central Guards Brigade. Among the four battle sequences of the Central Guards Brigade, Team 4 has a very high status.â
âBut now, Boss Liu and the higher-ups are both interested in rebuilding Team 1. They probably donât want to bet all their money on Team 4.â
âBut unless we come up with a good reason, Team 4 wonât take this lying down.â
âTheyâve been the top dogs for so many years, so they definitely wonât allow anyone to challenge their position. Mr. Lu is a clever person, and he could surely have thought of this.â
âThey would want to maintain their dominance, right?â Lin Yi asked.
âDid you notice?â Qiu Yuluo inquired.
Lin Yi nodded, âIf Team 4 was still both powerful and effective, they wouldnât have done this. There must have been some kind of issue.â
âItâs as you say.â Qiu Yuluo said.
âI heard from Boss Liu that when Team 4 was first established, it was different from the other three teams. It was a place with high standards and strict requirements. All the previous team leaders had to reach C-class. The level of the other team members is also ridiculously high. Therefore, over the years, itâs inevitable that theyâve made many contributions.â
âBoss Liu was from Team 4 before. He has the most say in that place. What did he say about this?â Lin Yi asked.
âAlthough he reached C-class, his greatest characteristic is his stability. Back then, the higher-ups took a fancy to his personality and wanted to promote him to become the leader of Team 4. However, things did not go as planned. In the end, he was injured while carrying out a mission.â Qiu Yuluo said.
âAt that time, there was another person in their team. He was extremely talented and had drive. He was a skilled member and had been competing for the position of team leader.â
âAnd?â
âThen, Boss Liu was transferred back and became the director of the Central Guards Brigadeâs combat department. The guy became the team leader, but his rank was not as high as Boss Liuâs.â
âI understand. Loose cannons who are also skilled donât like those who are mature and prudent.â Lin Yi said.
âIn the end, Boss Liu became their boss, which made them uncomfortable, right?â
âThatâs right. Although they look quite harmonious on the surface, they donât really admire Boss Liu. There are constant small frictions between them, unlike the three of our teams who go wherever we are told.â
âIs this the reason why they wanted to reconstruct Team 1?â
âIn truth, theyâve been thinking about this for a long time. Itâs just that your appearance provided a good opportunity,â Qiu Yuluo said.
âWang Mian is not weak. They could have effectively rebuilt Team 1 under his leadership.â
âHowever, Team 4âs leader, Chen Guanjie, is the son-in-law of the Wang familyâs side branch. If Wang Mian rebuilt Team 1 when he was in charge, the two major combat teams of the Central Guards Brigade would be tied to the Wang family.â Qiu Yuluo combed her hair and said.
âIn addition, the leader of Team 7 of the Central Guards Brigade is also from the Wang family. Their roots in the Central Guards Brigade would be deep. This was something Elder Lu didnât want to see. Our hands were tied until you appeared and gave him a chance. After your appearance, this plan was put on the agenda.â
Lin Yi bit into a string of lamb kidneys. âIf Team 1âs growth meets Elder Luâs expectations, Iâll become a thorn in Team 4âs side.â
âDonât worry, Elder Lu can protect you.â
Lin Yi picked up a piece of cucumber and fell into deep thought.
Although Wang Mian had left the Central Guards Brigade, the Wang family did not give up completely.
Otherwise, that person called Chen Guanjie would not still have such a stable position in Team 4. He would have resigned long ago.
âHuh?â
Just as Lin Yi was deep in thought, he suddenly heard Ning Che mutter.
âWhatâs wrong, Sister Ning?â
âI feel like someone is secretly taking photos of us.â
âSecretly taking photos?â Jiang Qingâs expression tightened as she hurriedly looked behind her.
âWhat are you panicking for?â
Ning Che put down the lamb skewers in her hand. âYou guys eat first. Iâll go over and take a look.â
âIâll go with you.â
âLetâs go.â
Lin Yi and Ning Che stood up at the same time, pretending to be calm.
âAre you sure?â Lin Yi asked nonchalantly.
âMy anti-reconnaissance ability is very strong. I canât be wrong.â Ning Che said slowly.
âTheyâre in the white Nissan up ahead, but Iâm a little puzzled. Who dares to take pictures of us?â
âItâs useless for us to keep guessing. Weâll find out the truth when we go over and take a look..â
