While the three of them were exchanging glances, two pairs of eyes, sharp as needles, suddenly landed on their backs. Fan Tianlei's warning gaze, though late, arrived.
"Why aren't you eating?" Wang Yanbing asked, looking at the three who were only communicating with their eyes and not touching their spoons.
He Chenguang pushed the bowl in front of him and said directly, "I don't have an appetite."
"I can't eat this!" Xu Tianlong also found it difficult to speak, unsure of what to say.
Song Kaifei and Wang Yanbing, as if witnessing something extraordinary, exchanged glances and then took over the bowls of tofu pudding from the two.
"We'll help you!" the two replied with silly smiles.
Qin Feng looked at the tofu pudding before him and chuckled inwardly. He calmly picked up a bowl and began to stir it.
Seeing that Qin Feng was also going to eat tofu pudding, He Chenguang immediately said, "Feng..."
Before He Chenguang could finish speaking, Qin Feng cut him off, "I know, you should try it too. It tastes pretty good!"
Hearing Qin Feng's words, He Chenguang said no more, though he still couldn't bring himself to eat.
Seeing this, Qin Feng didn't say much more, because he knew very well that everyone had to get through this challenge.
At this moment, Fan Tianlei, who had been watching everyone with a smile, suddenly spoke, "Eat as much tofu pudding as you want. Eat more."
"Report!" Hearing Fan Tianlei's words, Li Erniu looked around and then raised his hand, "I'd like another bowl."
"Good, get it for him!" Fan Tianlei's smile didn't diminish as he replied.
As soon as Fan Tianlei finished speaking, a cook stepped forward.
Seeing this, Wang Yanbing also immediately raised his hand, "Report, get me a bowl too."
"Report, can I have another bowl?" Song Kaifei asked timidly from the side.
The cook nodded and immediately turned to go to the kitchen to get more tofu pudding.
Seeing the enthusiasm of the three, Xu Tianlong laughed and said, "What nonsense!"
An hour later, Wang Yanbing and the others were all full and satisfied, some rubbing their bellies contentedly, others feeling that life couldn't be any more wonderful.
Of course, Qin Feng didn't share these sentiments.
"Alright, have you all eaten? The target is the bus on the field!" Fan Tianlei said, observing everyone's expressions.
Upon hearing this, they quickly rushed out of the mess hall and assembled in formation at the entrance.
After forming ranks, they immediately headed towards the bus on the field.
Under the scorching sun, the members of the Red Blood Cell squad, all in their formal attire, stood excitedly on the square in front of a blue bus.
They waited by the bus. Since Fan Tianlei and Miao Lang had not yet arrived, and without their orders, no one dared to board. They could only crane their necks and wait.
"Yanbing, where do you think the Chief of Staff is taking us?" Li Erniu asked, nudging Wang Yanbing with his elbow, looking confused.
Before Wang Yanbing could reply, Song Kaifei confidently interjected, "He's definitely taking us to reward us. Think about how hard we've worked all this way, and our performance in the recent exercises was good. Today, he's sure to take us out for some fun and a good meal."
As he spoke, Song Kaifei's eyes sparkled. He had eaten so much tofu at noon that he felt a pile of tofu sloshing in his stomach.
However, it was still much better than starving, so food was the first thing that came to his mind.
At this moment, Fan Tianlei strode over. Seeing Song Kaifei's elated expression, he surprisingly said nothing.
On the contrary, when Song Kaifei saw Fan Tianlei approaching, his expression immediately sobered, and his smile turned serious.
Fan Tianlei and the others were also wearing rare, solemn formal attire. Having seen Fan Tianlei in field uniforms for so long, his change into formal wear made him appear less like a fox and more respectable.
"Alright, get on the bus," Fan Tianlei said, waving his hand without delay.
The group boarded the bus, first the members of the Red Blood Cell squad, followed by the veterans of the Wolf Fang Special Forces Brigade, including Miao Lang and Chen Shanming.
Once everyone was on board, the bus immediately started and pulled onto the road.
"What a wonderful day it is!"
Song Kaifei, gazing at the passing scenery, shouted excitedly as if he had just been released from prison, "Where are we going? Are we going on a trip?"
"Dream on!" Xu Tianlong, looking glum ever since he got on the bus, immediately retorted upon hearing Song Kaifei's joyful outburst.
Li Erniu chuckled upon hearing this, "What's wrong with traveling? When I get leave, I'll definitely take Cui Fen to see the sights!"
Suddenly, Song Kaifei sat down next to Qin Feng and whispered, "Brother Feng, why are Miao Lang and Xue Bao also here? Could it be that the Chief of Staff has a change of heart and actually wants to go on a trip?"
He had always admired Qin Feng, and this rare opportunity to speak with him more couldn't be missed.
At this moment, Song Kaifei was like a child going on a school trip.
Qin Feng replied with a wry smile, "You'll know soon enough."
He knew the plot of Special Forces 2, and this was a challenge he couldn't avoid.
It was also a test for him. He had never actually witnessed an execution, nor did he know how gruesome the scene would be, so he was feeling uncharacteristically anxious.
"Host, I can give you a preview of an execution, and I can also show you real battlefield scenes in high-definition." The system's voice suddenly sounded in Qin Feng's mind.
Qin Feng: "..."
Who wants such high-definition uncensored scenes!
Qin Feng was speechless and couldn't help but complain inwardly. This system always appeared at unexpected moments.
He used to think the system was aloof, only speaking to issue missions or grant rewards.
This was the first time he had seen the system so proactive.
"Understood, Host," the system said dismissively, deliberately ignoring Qin Feng's complaint, and then the system's screen began to shift.
Qin Feng couldn't help but roll his eyes and think, "Understood my foot!"
However, Qin Feng had a bad feeling. As soon as he thought this, he felt a chill down his spine.
The next second, images began to play automatically in his mind.
These were real battlefield scenes! And they were high-definition, almost like ultra-blue-ray quality.
Limbs, blood, and brains splattered everywhere, just like the tofu this morning.
Qin Feng had never seen such scenes before, so to be suddenly bombarded with them made him feel nauseated.
After all, he had never found such graphic images before; domestic websites wouldn't allow them.
"Host, high-definition uncensored, you know~" the system said, completely unconcerned about the immense impact of its actions.
Qin Feng: "..."
