Chapter 318: Luggage Disappeared

The woman also saw them and she increased her pace as she approached them. She looked at both of them and asked, “You must be students? How did you come over here?”

Zi Yi did not speak, but Li Xia immediately replied, “We were arranged here to train the military dogs!”

The woman revealed a surprised expression at her words. “Oh? It’s my first time hearing of such an arrangement for the students to train military dogs for the training camp.”

Having said that, she looked at Zi Yi and deliberately asked with a smile, “Could it be that this female student’s appearance is too eye-catching and in order to avoid her affecting the other students’ training progress, you were both specially sent here?”

Li Xia was shocked. “How did you know?”

The woman could not help but laugh. “This student’s appearance is truly beautiful.”

She then said to them, “Then I’m afraid you might have to wait a while. Instructor Li is currently on patrol with a group of military dogs. Perhaps it might take up to half an hour.”

“Ah? The instructor who led us here said that we would only have to wait for 10 minutes at most.”

“Haha… the instructor might have informed you of an approximate timing. I met Instructor Li on my way earlier and had a short conversation with him. He personally informed me of this.”

Li Xiao looked at Zi Yi with a distressed expression. “Zi Yi, what now? Should we go and look for Instructor Li?”

“It’s best that you don’t wander around. This place is near the edge of the training camp and the primeval forest is just right outside. You’ll be in trouble if you encounter any poisonous snakes.”

Just as Li Xia was about to say something, the woman spoke up. “Why don’t you follow me to the infirmary? It’s almost time for mealtime and you’ll definitely starve if you don’t head to the canteen now.”

Li Xia was slightly moved and she glanced towards Zi Yi.

Zi Yi thought for a moment and said, “Since we’re here to report, let’s wait for Instructor Li to arrive first. It’s not good to leave all of a sudden.”

Li Xia agreed with her reasoning and hastily nodded.

The woman did not force them and merely said, “My surname is Zhang. You can come to the infirmary to look for me if you need anything. The infirmary is not far from here. You’ll find it by following down this road and turning left.

“Okay.”

Li Xia sighed as she looked at Doctor Zhang leaving. “I didn’t expect to see such a beautiful female doctor in the training camp.”

She then looked at Zi Yi and added, “But she’s not as pretty as you.”

Zi Yi did not express an opinion.

After they stood there and waited for a while, Li Xia’s stomach grumbled and Zi Yi said, “You can head to the canteen first.”

“What about you?”

“Just bring me two steamed buns, that will do.”

The breakfast they served here basically consists of porridge, steamed buns, and boiled eggs.

However, they did not know if they could pack them for takeaway. Li Xia thought for a moment and said, “Why don’t you go first? I’m able to resist hunger and I can still endure until noon without food.”

Zi Yi wanted to check the safety net by herself over here and so, she insisted. “You go ahead first. Or else it’ll be bad if both of us go hungry.”

Li Xia was a little moved by Zi Yi’s words. She felt that Zi Yi had deliberately said so to let her go first.

“Alright then, I’ll return with food!”

“Okay.”

The moment Li Xia left, Zi Yi checked her surroundings and ensured that there was no one in the vicinity, before she slowly walked around the fence.

On the surface, the iron nets here were used to prevent the military dogs from running about. But in fact, a special material was used on the surface of it and it could guard against things coming in from the outside.

Zi Yi took a short walk and felt that she had seen enough and she made her way back.

However, just as she came closer to the gates, she felt a trace of amiss. Their luggage had disappeared, but the gates remained closed. Therefore, it was definitely not because someone had helped them carry their luggage inside but instead, someone had taken it away.

Zi Yi stood there with a cold expression. She thought about it for a moment and turned around to head to a relatively remote corner before she spoke to the air. “Who took our luggage?”

Shadow appeared before Zi Yi.

His mechanical arm stretched out and a 5D image surfaced.

The culprit was a man whose appearance could not be identified due to the cap he wore.

Zi Yi sneered and said to Shadow, “Go and get our luggage back.”

Shadow immediately disappeared from the spot.

After Zi Yi stood at the original spot for a while more, she heard cheerful running steps approaching from a distance.

Soon, a group of military dogs ran to the door and they were waiting on the spot for the person behind them.

The moment she stepped out, the group of military dogs looked in her direction and ran over to her concurrently.

A sharp whistle sounded.

What followed after was an angry shout. “Everybody, sit!”

However, the man’s shout was a step late. A few military dogs who rushed forward had directly pounced on Zi Yi.

It was her first time encountering such a situation and she was momentarily stunned. However, she did not panic in the slightest. She released her powerful mental energy and targeted it against the few military dogs.

The next second, several military dogs stopped right in front of her and groaned as they circled around her.

The man ran over in large strides and said to the few military dogs, “All of you, go back.”

The few military dogs obediently ran towards the gate.

The man asked, “Student, are you frightened?”

“No.”

“That’s great. You must be Zi Yi? Your instructor came over and informed me of the arrangement last night. You and another student will be staying here to train the military dogs with me for the remaining period of time.”

He looked around in surprise after he said that. “Where’s your classmate?”

“I asked her to head over to the canteen first to get food.”

Instructor Li nodded and led her inside.

While he walked, he explained to her. “I have a small kitchen here and if you can cook, you can prepare food yourself in the following days.”

Zi Yi did not answer.

To her, she would rather eat in the canteen rather than make her own food.

Instructor Li thought that she could not cook and so, he did not say anything else.

When he reached the gates, he asked again, “You didn’t bring over your luggage? It’s a little far over here from your previous dormitory and it’s more convenient for you to live here.”

“We took them with us.” Zi Yi pointed to a corner in the distance. “I placed the luggage in the corner over there.”

Instructor Li thought of the fact that Zi Yi was standing at that corner earlier and he chuckled. “Let’s go then. I’ll help you carry them inside.”

Zi Yi responded and the both of them made their way back. As expected, there were two suitcases placed in a hidden corner.

Instructor Li simply carried one luggage in each hand and walked towards the entrance with Zi Yi.

All the military dogs were very obedient when they looked at Zi Yi. In particular, those few who had pounced in her direction earlier. They had even subconsciously whined.

Instructor Li was somewhat surprised.

He felt that their behavior was due to their fondness for Zi Yi.

However, after the two of them headed inside, the group of military dogs lowered their heads as if whispering to each other and they would whine from time to time.

After Instructor Li led Zi Yi to their rooms, he headed to the gate to wait for Li Xia.

Zi Yi sat on the bed and asked, “Who’s that person?”
