Chapter 14: My Deputy Class Monitor
Tonight, Ban Fu suddenly woke me up.
"Hmph!"
Just as I was about to speak, the vice class leader put his hand over my mouth, signaling me not to speak.
I followed the deputy class leader to the back hill.
In the dim light, the deputy monitor took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed me one.
I was somewhat surprised and didn't know what had happened to Vice Squad Leader Ban.
"Class Vice President, what's wrong."
I lit a cigarette and asked Vice Squad Leader skeptically.
"Xiao Bin, are you dare to go out with me tomorrow night?"
The deputy class leader squatted on the ground and suddenly said to me.
"Ah..."
The deputy class leader saw me and shouted loudly, kicking me with a bad temper.
"Ah, you want to be discovered, huh? Are you daring enough?" The deputy class monitor asked me with a huff after taking another drag.
"I don't dare."
I immediately expressed my thoughts in my heart. I really didn't dare to go out with the deputy class leader. The military camp clearly stipulates that it is not allowed to sneak out without permission.
"I knew you wouldn't dare, Vice Class Monitor has entrusted you with a task."
Hearing what the deputy class leader said, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Assistant Vice, you said that as long as I, Xiao Bin, can help, I will definitely help you." I replied with a pat on my chest.
The deputy class monitor suddenly threw me more than half of the remaining pack of cigarettes.
After sitting beside me, the deputy class leader looked at the night sky and said softly: "Deputy Class Leader wants to go out tomorrow night."
"I asked hesitantly: 'Vice Captain, what do you want to go out for?'"
"Give some money to my ex-girlfriend." said Ben's deputy in a low voice.
I didn't understand why Ben said that, so I immediately expressed the doubts in my mind.
"Class Vice President, why?"
The classmate patted me on the shoulder and said with a low smile: "She needs this money now."
I was left agape, and the cigarette in my mouth fell out instantly.
"Deputy Bān, that... she isn't married already? And... and if Commander Lián finds out you're sneaking out on your own, you'll be punished." I stuttered as I spoke, my heart deeply worried for Deputy Bān.
The squad vice nodded and continued: "That can't be helped, the day before yesterday my ex-girlfriend sent me a letter saying that her current husband has cancer and needs a lot of money. I want to do my best to help her out. I've been in the army for five years and saved tens of thousands of yuan, thinking of transferring it to her, but now I'm leading new recruits in the new recruit company, and the company commander won't approve my leave."
The ex-girlfriend that Vice-captain mentioned is the one he deeply loved after his second year in the army, but she married someone else. At this moment, I finally understand why Vice-captain had to sneak out privately; he must still have deep feelings for his ex-girlfriend.
Just as I was thinking about it, the class vice president lit another cigarette and continued to say: "Looking at her now, I feel very uncomfortable, I want to help her. But my family is not rich either."
I didn't expect Vice Class Monitor to be such a sentimental and righteous person, at this moment, I admire Vice Class Monitor even more. For the sake of his loved one, he risked being punished to help his ex-girlfriend get through her difficulties.
I was moved by Vice Squad Leader, I patted my thigh hard and put my hand on his shoulder, saying: "Vice Squad Leader, I'll help you, tell me how."
The deputy class also moved by my actions, looked at me and smiled softly: "Thank you, Xiao Bin. Tomorrow night's second watch is mine, then you wear my equipment to help me keep watch. I've already spoken with the deputy of Class 8, listen to him when the time comes. Remember, don't let the class leader find out. When someone calls for the watch, they'll come directly to call you, so be quiet and don't get discovered."
"Don't worry, Vice Squad Leader," I nodded and replied. "I won't wake up the Squad Leader. The other day, Hu San Dao gave out some cold medicine that would make people extremely drowsy. Hu Xin Kuai was afraid of delaying training, so he didn't dare to take it. Tomorrow, before lights out, I'll think of a way to get the Squad Leader to take it."
The deputy class monitor listened to my idea, was stunned at first, and then patted me hard on the back.
The vice-captain's slap was so painful that I opened my mouth wide. I don't know how much strength he used, but it was extremely painful.
"Alright, I didn't think you were so cunning."
I rubbed my head, feeling a bit embarrassed, and smiled foolishly at the deputy class monitor.
"Just as long as you help me out tomorrow, kid, from now on, before lights out, you can come to the back hill to smoke a cigarette, and I'll cover for you with the squad leader."
The deputy class monitor's sugar-coated bombshell really blew me away, and I excitedly nodded in agreement.
With the support of the vice class leader, even if I get caught smoking by other classes' vice leaders in the future, I think my vice class leader will definitely help me.
After returning with the deputy class leader Hou Shan, I lay in bed for a long time and couldn't fall asleep, thinking about how to secretly let the class leader take the medicine.
If the vice captain is found to have gone out privately, he will definitely be locked in the army's confinement room for reflection. Alas, the more I think about it, the more afraid I become, and my heart is secretly worried about the vice captain.
The next day, we were taken to the training ground again. This time, Commander Lian let us practice all the subjects that we had practiced in the past month.
Because in 5 days, our company will start assessing the training of each new recruit battalion for this month.
The company commander attaches great importance to this assessment. I heard from the squad leader that if the pass rate is not above 80%, the company commander will have to make a self-criticism in front of all the cadres in the regiment. If the pass rate of a company is less than 50%, the company commander will be punished at that time.
At that time, Hu Xingrui heard what the class leader said and uttered a sentence that was punished by the class leader.
At that time, Hu Xingwei burst out laughing and said: "Great, if Lian Chang doesn't make us happy, we'll all be new recruits and give him a full-body unqualified. Hahaha."
"Damn it, Hu San Dao, your mother's... Do you want to die? Listen up, target is high ground 301, you have 20 minutes to get there."
The class leader was furious on the spot and scolded Hu San Dao, this SB idiot, and ordered him to rush to the top of the mountain in 20 minutes.
Forget 20 minutes, I reckon it won't even arrive in 30 minutes.
At that time, he regretted it so much that his intestines were clear. After being punished by the class leader, he complained to me and Zheng Hao with all his might.
"You guys said I was just joking with Hu San Dao, how come the class monitor couldn't tell and got me all worked up to the point of almost fainting."
Hu Xingwei, who had just been punished, put his two hands on my and Zheng Hao's shoulders, panting and complaining to us.
"Get lost and stick your nose in the mud, you're not new to knowing our class monitor." I slapped away Hu Xingwei's hand that was on my shoulder and replied irritably.
Zheng Hao also slapped his hand open and followed with a bad tone: "You're so arrogant, you don't know what to say or not to say. You still don't understand now, I'm too lazy to care about you, anyway, your physical strength is good."
Hu Xingwei lost the support of the two of us and suddenly collapsed to the ground, shouting loudly at us: "A, don't go, I'm exhausted, help me!"
"Crawl back to your class monitor's place yourself."
"That's right."
The two of us shouted a sentence without looking back and ran towards the class monitor, leaving Hu Xingrui behind.
"My god, I, Hu Xingwei, was careless in making friends and got taken advantage of by that bastard."
Then came Hu Xingwei's unpleasant voice...
