Before Shi Lei could check the specific functions of each ability, there was a knock on the door.
"Xiao Shi, are you asleep?"
Shi Lei was stunned because this voice was clearly the commander of the fleet, Ma Chang.
He hurriedly ran over to open the door. Ma Chang and Deputy Commander Qian Xuejun were standing outside with their hands behind their backs.
"Greetings, Chief Ace!" Shi Lei hurriedly saluted.
Ma Chang smiled and waved his hand." Alright, there are no outsiders here. There's no need to be so restrained!" Um, can we go in?"
"Of course!" Shi Lei quickly made way for him.”
Ma Chang and Qian Xuejun nodded and walked in.
"How is it? Are you used to living here?”" This is the condition of the fleet," Qian Xuejun said." If you're not used to it, we'll change your location!"”
"This place is already very good!" Shi Lei hurriedly said. Compared to the barracks on the island, there was no air leakage here. It was very quiet and there was no need to worry about high tides. Most importantly, everything here was very comfortable. Really, it was already very, very good!”
Ma Chang and Qian Xuejun looked at each other, feeling somewhat ashamed.
Shi Lei's island was under the jurisdiction of their fleet.
However, they failed to take good care of the soldiers who had guarded the border for the motherland for twelve years.
When they thought about how Shi Lei had guarded the island for twelve years under such terrible circumstances, the two of them felt a little sour in their hearts.
"Comrade Shi Lei, on behalf of the leadership of the First Fleet, I sincerely apologize to you!”
" It's our fault for not being able to improve the living conditions on the island," Ma Chang said sincerely." We've caused you to suffer for so many years. I'm really sorry!"”
When Shi Lei heard this, he quickly puffed out his chest.""Chief A, you don't have to be so polite. The place I'm stationed at is already difficult to transport, but I'm already very satisfied with the supplies that are sent over every week! This is my responsibility!"
The two of them exchanged a few pleasantries before Ma Chang suddenly asked,""Xiao Shi, what are your plans for the future?”
The future!
Shi Lei was a little confused when he heard this.
Twelve years ago, he had wanted to join the fleet and ride the seas with the warships.
However, after so many years, all his thoughts had faded.
He didn't know where he was going.
Ma Chang saw that he was silent and hurriedly said,"It's okay. You can go anywhere you want. The higher-ups said that this time, you can choose. No matter where you want to go, we will support you!”
"Xiao Shi, don't be shy. Speak your mind." Qian Xuejun said. You've guarded the border for the country for twelve years. Now, it's our turn to do something for you!”
"It's not that I don't want to talk about it," Shi Lei smiled bitterly. I really don't know where to go. Can you let me think?”
"Yes, of course!" "You can take as long as you want!”
"Thank you for your understanding!" Shi Lei nodded gratefully.
Anyway, so many years had passed. He did not care about these few days. He needed more time to think about the future.
"Xiao Shi, since you want to think about it for a while, I'll let you know." That's good. You can pack up tomorrow. There will be someone who will take you to all parts of the country!”
"Ah?" Shi Lei was surprised.
"Don't be nervous. This is the military's arrangement." Qian Xuejun smiled. The higher-ups want you to give a speech all over the country. They want you to tell them about how you have been stationed on the island for twelve years and how you have successfully captured the enemy!”
"Leader!" Shi Lei smiled bitterly." Please spare me. I'm a dumb talker." I can do things, but forget about giving a speech!”
Shi Lei argued with Qian Xuejun for a while. Finally, Ma Chang stood up and said,"Xiao Shi, this mission was arranged by the military. The goal is to spread your heroic deeds!”
"Our era has been peaceful for too long. The country and the army need a hero. What about your experience? Therefore, you have to do it reluctantly. We'll prepare a script for you, and you just have to read it!”
" Chief A," Shi Lei said reluctantly.
"Good, good, good!" Ma Chang waved his hand helplessly. One was for the commoners, and the other was for the army. Is this okay?"
Qian Xuejun quickly said,"Xiao Shi, since you're so accommodating, just agree!" This is a political mission. The country wants to make you a national hero. This is a good thing!”
Since he had already said this, Shi Lei could not decline.
Even if he didn't give face to the leader, he had to respect the military's orders.
After all, it was a soldier's duty to obey orders.
The next morning, two lieutenant colonels came to pick up Shi Lei and set off together.
The three of them arrived at the airport and directly took a special passage to board the plane.
However, when they got on the plane, they realized that the business class seats that they had booked were all occupied.
"You were sitting here?" A man in a black suit walked towards the three of them.
The lieutenant colonel nodded." Yes, this is our ticket." Please make way!"
The bodyguard in black immediately gave him a stack of money."I'm sorry, we'll buy this place. This is the money for the plane tickets. You can go to the economy class at the back. It's free for you to take a plane!”
When the two lieutenant colonels heard this, they instantly frowned.
