From Soldier to Officer: A Game Addict’s Journey-Chapter 10

Chapter 10

“Is everything alright? Not to your taste?” The class monitor, Ye Sanshi asked with a smile when he noticed that the others had finished their first and second bowls of noodles, while Wang Ye had barely touched his.

“Uh … No, class monitor, it’s mainly because I’m a little dizzy from sitting in the car today!” Wang Ye casually found an excuse.

He did not dare to reveal his true thoughts about the yellow basin, nor did he dare to ask.

Because if he really dared to ask, he was afraid that these recruits who were still eating very enthusiastically would not be able to eat the rest even if they did not strangle their throats.

“Ah, I see. Your physique might be a little thin,” Ye Sanshi said, patting Wang Ye’s shoulder. “But don’t worry, the army’s food may not be the best, but it’s definitely nutritious. You’ll get used to it in a few months and become healthier.”

The class monitor patted Wang Ye’s shoulder and comforted him with a smile. Wang Ye breathed a sigh of relief, grateful that the class monitor didn’t pressure him to eat more. The meal had no time limit, and the veteran soldiers were encouraging the recruits to eat as much as they could.

The meal lasted for half an hour, from the time everyone entered the cafeteria until they left. When they returned to the dormitory, it was already past 10:30.

“It’s getting late. There are cabinets here. Each of you can take one. You can put some personal clothes inside now. I’m going out for a while. When I come back later, I’ll take you guys to the warehouse! Oh, right, the bed. Other than the lower bunk near the door, you can choose one of the other beds.”

The veterans who had assisted earlier had all left by the time Ye Sanshi returned. Wang Ye knew they weren’t the squad leaders of the recruit company, merely helping to welcome the new recruits. From now on, the only ones who would be with the recruits day and night were their squad leaders.

After Ye Sanshi finished speaking, he carried a bucket and left the dormitory.

Suddenly, there was a bit of silence in the dormitory, even if they were already considered comrades in the truest sense of the word.

As the recruits settled into the dormitory, it became apparent that nobody knew each other, having only just met earlier that day. Even those who hailed from the same hometown were separated during class allocation.

“I’ll choose this!”

Some of the recruits who were bulkier but could only be considered strong were laughing as they chose the lower bunk of an iron frame bed by the window.

“Then I choose this one!”

Since someone had started the process, everyone naturally did not stand on the ceremony and immediately began to call dibs on their preferred bunks.

Wang Ye was not in a hurry to snatch one, but his movements were not slow either. He casually walked to the side and walked to a bed in the middle of the dormitory, saying, “Then I’ll sleep on this one!”

As the first wave of recruits reacted too slowly, they missed out on the lower bunks, leaving only two opposite the class monitor and one next door.

“I …”

Some recruits were feeling frustrated. They obviously wanted the lower bunk by the window, but now that they were all occupied, there was nothing they could do. However, they reacted too slowly and weren’t even able to put up a fight.

Soon, the ten recruits had chosen their own beds and the cabinets were divided.

This was easier to choose than the bed. Everyone did not argue and just acknowledged each other.

“Damn … Bro, you brought a lot of socks and underwear!”

When they opened their bags and took out their personal items, Wang Ye’s bag stunned everyone.

When he opened it, he could see a pile of new socks and underwear.

“Yeah, my family insisted on it,” Wang Ye replied, not wanting to reveal too much. He didn’t want to appear ostentatious or make himself a target for his future comrades.

As they chatted, he realized that these things might become scarce items in the next few months, and it was best not to draw attention to himself.

However, he didn’t have any personal space now. When he opened his bag and revealed the things inside, others would see them.

“Sigh, I should have brought more if I had known. I feel like I brought too little!”

“Actually, it’s useless to have more. The army can provide for us even if we don’t have much!”

They were all young people, so they could talk about anything.

Of course, this topic wasn’t fixed. After chatting for a while, some recruits took the initiative to change the topic.

“Hey, don’t you think this army is different from what the outside world says?

“Before I came, my cousin told me that the army was very strict and told me to be obedient. He also said that the veterans would bully the recruits and told me to be more united with the recruits. He also told me to endure it and I’ll be in a better position, but now…”

“Indeed, I was shocked too. Actually, I was already prepared to be criticized and punished tonight. But now it seems that our leaders are also very good, and the veteran class monitors are also very good!”

“Indeed. From the looks of it, the terror of the army is only spread by people outside who don’t understand it!”

“No way, brothers. I heard that the army seems to be friendly at the beginning. The recruits will treat you well at the beginning, but it will change later!”

The group of recruits discussed what they had seen and heard today with great emotion.

Wang Ye listened to everyone’s conversation and didn’t say much.

Wang Ye, with the knowledge and experience he gained before his rebirth, was surprised by the current state of the army. He had expected more, and it was only the first day. He remembered a video he had seen online before he retired from the army. In it, the veteran squad leader would fetch water and wash the feet of new recruits on their first day.

How could the army look like this? It was only the first day.

Hmm? Thinking of this, Wang Ye was stunned.

Didn’t the class monitor go out with a bucket just now?

What the hell, could there really be such a scene?

His thoughts were interrupted when Ye Sanshi returned with a bucket of hot water. “Come, come, come. You’ve already allocated the beds, right? Go to the beds and take down the small basins that were allocated to you. I’ll give you hot water. Everyone must be tired from the long journey. I’ve brought you hot water to soak your feet!”

Wang Ye was surprised. The truth quickly unfolded before his eyes.

Ye Sanshi’s smile was really gentle, but Wang Ye felt that there was a sharp edge hidden in his smile.

Would he be as cold as he was kind today?

His scalp tingled. This was a double-edged smile.

“No, class monitor, you’re too good!”

“Damn, class monitor, how can we let you fetch water for us!”

The recruits were equally stunned by Ye Sanshi’s gesture. Although they saw him carrying a bucket, they never thought that the class monitor had gone out to fetch hot water for everyone to wash their feet.

Ye Sanshi laughed it off, saying, “That’s nothing. We’ll be comrades in the revolution from now on. Come, come, come, stop wasting time. When the water is cold, take a basin. I’ll pour water for you. This bucket isn’t enough. I’ll split it with a few people first. I’ll go and bring it back later!”
