Chapter 27: Flying Swallow

  "Miss, this is the information you wanted." A housekeeper-like person looked respectfully at the girl who had her back to him, holding a few thin sheets of paper. From behind, it was clear that the girl had a slender figure and curves in all the right places, looking like a beauty. However, she was wearing a bathrobe and using a towel to wipe her smooth black hair, with water droplets occasionally falling from the ends of her hair.

  Turning around, Fei Yan shook her long hair and handed over the towel in her hand. The housekeeper-like man took it over. Fei Yan took the documents from the housekeeper's hand and smiled slightly, saying: "Uncle Jiang, thank you." The girl's smile was like a blooming spring flower in March, which was fascinating to behold.

  But Jiang Shu's face was filled with helplessness, looking at the young lady's smiling face, he said helplessly: "Miss, why do you have to be in this line of work? It's too dangerous." Fei Yan glanced briefly at the documents in her hand, then looked up at Jiang Shu and said: "Alright, Uncle Jiang, I know. Besides, with my skills, you're not unaware of them either, so just relax." Jiang Shu shook his head helplessly - this was the young lady's personality, always insisting on her own ideas; if she wasn't like that, she wouldn't have been expelled by her family.

  "This time the target is a college student, and the price is one million. I don't know what kind of enemy this young master has provoked, but someone is willing to spend such a large sum of money to take his head." Jiang Shu knew he couldn't persuade his mistress, so he told Fei Yan about the target this time.

  Fei Yan looked at the documents in her hand with satisfaction. Jiang Shu, although he was her butler, was also her agent, and every task was taken care of by him. Fei Yan casually tore up the documents in her hand, took a glance, and had already memorized the contents inside.

  "This time's action shouldn't be too difficult, Uncle Jiang helped me bring out the equipment." This task was already taken two days ago, but in these few days, Uncle Jiang has been investigating a person named Tai Shu Zheng Yu, observing his eating and living habits, and figuring out all the places he usually goes to. Fei Yan has great confidence in her own skills, so even though the information isn't very detailed, she believes that with her own strength, dealing with a college student shouldn't be a problem.

  Jiang Shu quickly took out the equipment that Fei Yan wanted, a heavy safe box containing what Fei Yan needed. Fei Yan spent a few minutes changing into a tight-fitting outfit, wearing a pair of gray sunglasses on her face and holding the box in her hand, saying to Jiang Shu: "Uncle Jiang, I'm leaving."

  Just then, Jiang Shu's phone rang. He signaled to Fei Yan to wait, but she looked at him in confusion. After listening for a while, he said to her, "The target has gone to attend the new student military training and it seems that our action will be delayed. According to the information we received, this time their military training is being held in a certain military region and the training period is one month."

  Feiyan removed the sunglasses from her face, patted her forehead with her hand, and then smiled: "It seems he can live for another month." The military district, no matter how small, is absolutely not a place where anyone dares to go in and kill someone. Even if Feiyan was very confident in her own skills, she didn't have the confidence to kill someone inside the military district and still escape unscathed.

  "Alright, then let's just consider this a month-long vacation for myself. It's been a long time since I've had a break anyway." Fei Yan tossed aside the box in her hand and walked into the room. Jiang Shu quietly put away the weapons box. As one of the top 100 assassins in the world, Fei Yan's next task wouldn't be completed for another month, which was a huge blow to her reputation.

  The employer doesn't care about the difficulties of the killers, whether they can complete the task or not. They just need to see the result after the killer accepts the task, usually within seven days. No one knows that the famous flying swallow in the killer world is actually a young and beautiful girl.

  Uncle Zheng Yu didn't know that his temporary decision to participate in military training would actually help him narrowly escape disaster. If he hadn't wanted to experience the life of a university freshman's military training, it's likely that this assassination attempt would have been impossible for Uncle Zheng Yu to avoid. A visible sword is easy to dodge but a hidden arrow is hard to guard against; even if Uncle Zheng Yu has exceptional martial arts skills, when facing an assassin hiding in the shadows, he might still be unable to avoid making a mistake.

  Sitting in the big truck heading to the military district, Uncle Zheng Yu was leaning alone in the corner with his eyes closed. In his ears, he heard the familiar rumble of the military truck, and in his heart, he let out a faint sigh, feeling that he and these classmates were like people from two different worlds, and he didn't fit in at all. Watching them discuss enthusiastically, Uncle Zheng Yu could only watch from the side.

  Tai Shu Zheng Yu couldn't help but laugh to himself, it seemed that he was born not to fit in with the crowd. With these naive and young classmates, they really didn't have a common language. Tai Shu Zheng Yu sat alone with his eyes closed in the corner, the other people in the car looked at Tai Shu Zheng Yu's expressionless face, giving off an unfriendly signal, so no one dared to approach him to talk.

  Years of living on the edge of life and death had naturally given Tai Shu Zheng Yu an aura, a temperament that ordinary people could not possess. Although Tai Shu Zheng Yu did not have any expression, he gave others a sense of danger, making them dare not approach him.

  The military truck had been driving for about three hours, and Uncle Zheng Yu estimated that they should have arrived in the suburbs by now. After a while, Uncle Zheng Yu finally felt the truck come to a stop. He knew it seemed like he had already reached his destination. As expected, after a moment, people wearing military uniforms came to their vehicle and shouted: "Everyone get off the bus!"

  The soldier's shoulder had two stripes on it, and Uncle Zheng knew at a glance that this man was a veteran. The people in the car came down one after another. The old soldier roared: "Hurry up, don't dawdle like women! From now on, you are not students, but soldiers! Within ten seconds, anyone who doesn't come down will run around the playground for ten laps!"

  The originally lazy people looked at the old soldier with a dark face and felt a chill in their hearts, and from then on, no one dared to slack off. The old soldier also knew that these people were just some inexperienced young kids, and he didn't have too many expectations of them. Looking at the crooked and curved formation, the old soldier shook his head secretly, and shouted: "From today on, I am your instructor, my name is Huang Daguan, and I will be in charge of your training for the next month. No matter where you come from or what your family background is, but here you must listen to the officer's words, do you understand?" The old soldier glanced at Tai Shu Zheng Yu who was standing at the back, not because Tai Shu Zheng Yu was standing very straight, but because he was too tall, standing out in the crowd, it was hard not to notice him. Tai Shu Zheng Yu's height was half a head taller than this group of students.

  "Now follow me to get your training uniforms, and then I'll arrange for your dormitories." The old soldier waved his hand and turned around to leave. It wasn't just Uncle Zheng Yu's team that was led by the instructor to pick up their uniforms; there were other teams as well. Uncle Zheng Yu took a quick glance at the training ground, where there were more than 30 teams, meaning over a thousand new students had come for military training this year.

  Tai Shu Zheng Yu's team was just one of them. The training uniforms were all taken by the instructors, and before boarding the train, Tai Shu Zheng Yu and the others who participated in the military training had already been assigned, with each group on a car, so the old soldier instructors knew how many sets of training uniforms to take.

  When Taishou Genroku was putting on the training uniform, he encountered a small problem - the size of the training uniform was a bit too small. These training uniforms were made according to average height, so the one in Taishou's hand was a bit too small for him. Fortunately, although Taishou is relatively tall, there are still large-sized training uniforms available.

  The morning passed like this, and their instructor arranged dormitories for them, handed over some things that needed attention, such as personal hygiene, rest time, etc. Lunch was all settled in the large cafeteria, with soldiers who had a resolute face, and new students who had a hint of curiosity and excitement on their faces.

  The food was just simple steamed buns, rice, and a few big pot dishes. Although these things were not exotic delicacies when placed outside, for the new recruits entering the military zone for the first time, everything was so novel that even the usual unappetizing big pot dishes seemed delicious to them at this moment.

  The lunch break was over, and there were two hours of rest in the afternoon, but no one went to rest. They sat together in groups of three or five, discussing all the fresh things in the military camp, as if they had endless energy on their bodies. The freshness of being new here had not faded away, and no one felt a bit tired, discussing loudly with full energy.

  Huang Daguan heard the commotion in the dormitory and exchanged a glance with several comrades beside him, shaking their heads. Huang Daguan said in a low voice: "Don't rest now, wait until this afternoon and they will know what it means to be exhausted, then see if they can still shout loudly."

  Several old soldiers burst out laughing and said, "Old Huang, these are all new recruits. Don't take them as your troops to train. I reckon after a month, not many of them will be able to walk out of this military camp."

  Huang Daguan opened his mouth, revealing his white teeth, and smiled, saying: "I am a member of the First Battalion, the soldiers I bring out are naturally the best, can't let the First Battalion lose face."
