Reborn at Boot Camp: General, Don t Mess Around! - Chapter 2560

2560 Raise Your Head, Let Me Look At You

After keeping everything, including the empty medicine bottles, Xia Jinyuan said to his future father-in-law, “The hero’s soul has gone to his final resting place. We’ll definitely bring his body back. I swear on my reputation as a soldier that I will bring him back.”

Chief Engineer Fu didn’t look relieved. Instead, his expression became even more solemn.

He knew that it was dangerous to bring the sacrificed guard back to the country.

“We already know his exact location. We’ll send you and the other three scientists away tonight. We’ll take action tomorrow.” Xia Jinyuan seemed to have guessed what he was thinking, and his words made people feel more at ease.

!!

Chief Engineer Fu stood up and patted the back of the young soldier’s hand. “Be careful.” He wanted to bring the guard back to their country but didn’t want the soldiers who risked their lives to carry out this mission to suffer any more casualties.

“We’ll be careful. You don’t have to worry. It’s our responsibility to bring the martyrs back to our country.” It was time to rest. Xia Jinyuan stood up and prepared to leave.

However, Chief Engineer Fu opened his mouth and asked Ye Jian, “Hello there, I heard just now that you seemed to be in pain. Did you get hurt somewhere? If you’re hurt, hurry up and get yourself treated.”

Perhaps it was because this female soldier’s voice was too similar to his wife’s. Even though she was holding her breath at that time, he heard it clearly.

Before they even acknowledged each other, Ye Jian felt warmth in her heart. Even Captain Xia didn’t notice anything amiss, but her father did.

She felt under her shoulder blade, and blood stained her hand. There was a piece of shrapnel embedded in her flesh.

She was probably injured by the shrapnel from the mortar. She was considered lucky.

“Thank you for your concern. I’m fine. It’s just a small scratch.” They were too close to Lardner’s residence. They needed to leave immediately.

Ye Jian didn’t want to treat her wound now. As she spoke, she quietly lowered her hand and wiped the blood on her palm on her clothes.

Her injury could be dealt with after the four scientists were escorted away.

The special forces soldiers from the Xueyu unit were worried about Ye Jian’s injury. G3 said in a low voice, “Even if they’re just scratches, they need to be dealt with too. There’s no movement in front now. Azure Bird, get your wounds before we leave.”

“Azure Bird, don’t fight head-on. Get your wounds treated first.”

“Where’s the injury? Show us!”

K7 and Z7 both opened their mouths. They didn’t agree to let Ye Jian treat her wounds later.

Xia Jinyuan had already opened the sanitary bag again. Chief Engineer Fu answered the special forces soldier’s question, “Her back should be injured. Did you get hurt by the mortar fragments when you rushed over to protect me?”

“She must’ve been injured by a piece of shrapnel. The fragment is stabbed into her flesh. Take it out with a pair of tweezers before we leave. If not, as the muscles on her back move, the fragment will rub against her wound continuously. It’ll only make the wound worse.”

As expected of a military scientist who developed bombs. He said it so clearly that Ye Jian couldn’t refuse.

In the end, Ye Jian got her wound treated.

K7 shone a weak light on her back. Xia Jinyuan used his dagger to cut open her clothes. A broken fragment that hadn’t completely pierced into her flesh was revealed.

Chief Engineer Fu’s gaze slowly moved up from her wound. Finally, his gaze landed on her beautiful side profile outlined by the light.

This was the first time he saw Ye Jian’s side profile clearly. Even though it was just a weak light, the strong sense of familiarity hit Fu Yusheng’s chest hard. His heart tightened. At the same time, he took two steps forward and rushed to Ye Jian.

“You… raise your head. Let me look at you.” He asked in disbelief.
