Chapter 580: One Move is Enough
"Okay, if that's the case, we agree to you going alone, but if you need support, contact us immediately!" Number One took the lead in speaking.
"Number Eighteen, the instructor is counting on you."
"Come on, don't screw it up and make me have to rescue you if the instructor isn't saved!"
"..."
Su Chen nodded vigorously.
Although the final decision was for him to go alone, Su Chen felt more at ease inside.
Having such a group of people as his backup.
He had no reason to fail.
"Alright, before we set off, let's brothers, have a drink first!"
"No return until we're drunk!"
"..."
During this meal, everyone drank a lot.
And talked a lot about old times.
Especially about the unclear and ambiguous relationship between Su Chen and the instructor.
Which made everyone very curious.
"Kid, don't say you have nothing to do with the instructor. You even took her back to the dorm, I don't believe you could restrain yourself from doing anything."
"Exactly, otherwise, why would that lady look at you differently now?"
"..."
The group of people ate, laughed, and made noise.
It lasted until the evening before it ended.
However, the crowd didn't let Su Chen leave.
Instead, all seventeen people stood at the doorway.
"What's this..." Su Chen looked at everyone with some confusion.
Unsure of what everyone wanted to do.
"Number Eighteen, you're going alone to save the instructor, we agreed, but you have to pass our test first."
Su Chen understood what everyone meant.
If he couldn't even pass this, how could he possibly rescue the instructor?
Ten minutes later.
Su Chen left the house.
The seventeen people were all sitting on the ground, gasping for breath.
"Do you guys think, what level is Number Eighteen's strength now? I actually only lasted five moves against him."
"Yeah, even Number One could only hold on for a dozen or so moves."
"Number One, were you going easy on him?"
Number One's strength was recognized as the strongest.
Initially, during training, he was far ahead of everyone else.
Even the devilish female instructor sometimes couldn't help but praise him.
Logically, Number One should be even stronger now.
But he only lasted a dozen moves against Su Chen before he lost.
"I indeed went easy." Number One nodded.
"I knew it, with your strength, how could it be only a dozen moves, you should at least be able to match Number Eighteen."
A bitter smile appeared on Number One's face, and he said, "When I said I went easy, it wasn't me who went easy, it was him who went easy. He wasn't even serious, if he were, I might only be able to last three moves max."
"What? Is Number Eighteen that strong?" Everyone was somewhat incredulous.
"I'm only talking about him being serious, if he really wanted to kill me, maybe one move would be enough." Number One narrowed his eyes.
The stronger the strength, the more you can feel the gap with Su Chen.
"This way, we can rest assured and entrust him with the task of rescuing the instructor."
"Number One, are we really letting him go alone?"
"Yes, I trust him!"
Leaving the hotel, Su Chen took out his phone.
There were many missed calls and messages.
Most of them were from Han Qiuyun and Lin Rou.
Today was the third day, the day to fulfill Lin Rou's mother's promise.
Though Su Chen didn't go, he believed Han Qiuyun could handle it.
Reading the messages, sure enough, there was one from Han Qiuyun.
Saying everything went smoothly, the people coming to the Traditional Medicine department were lined up like a long dragon.
By the end of the day, she, Lin Rou, and people borrowed from other departments were all worn out.
Lin Rou's mother finally allowed Lin Rou to stay in the Traditional Medicine department.
With Lin Rou's issue resolved, Su Chen had even fewer worries.
The trouble was, he had to ask for leave from the CEO wife again.
Moreover, this time, it would be longer than any previous occasion.
Previously, Su Chen could simply tell Qin Keren when taking leave.
But this time was too long, he still had to inform Lin Xi.
"Dear wife, during my time working in the company, I've deeply realized my inadequacies, thus, I want to go abroad to study for a while. When I return, your husband's life will surely be awesome and extravagant!"
Seeing Su Chen's message, Lin Xi was dumbfounded.
Just ask for leave, why make it so sensational.
And recognizing his inadequacies.
Isn't your inadequacy just frequently missing work?
"Okay." This was Lin Xi's reply to Su Chen.
"Ah, as always so succinct, maybe if I disappear for a few days, or a few years, she wouldn't even care." Looking at the one-word reply from Lin Xi, Su Chen felt slightly disappointed.
But that's just how Lin Xi was.
Not good at expressing her feelings.
Even if she really couldn't bear to let him go, she wouldn't say anything to retain him.
Even being able to reply to him was already quite something.
Just as Su Chen felt a bit down, he received another message.
"Take care, waiting for you to come home."
Though still only eight words, Su Chen's heart instantly warmed.
"Don't worry, wife, for you, I must return."
Su Chen turned off his phone.
"Commander, what's up, only you?" Ice Liang saw Su Chen coming out alone, a trace of confusion appearing in his eyes.
"This mission, I can handle it alone," Su Chen replied.
"They... aren't willing?" Ice Liang asked through gritted teeth.
"They are willing, but I don't want them to sacrifice anymore," Su Chen sighed.
...
A day later, Su Chen appeared on the Yun-Myanmar border.
The border area adjacent to T-Country, Myanmar, and Laos, known as the Golden Triangle, is a lawless zone.
Located by Huaxia's Yun Province, most of Huaxia's drugs seep through from here.
The core power of Heavenly is established in this lawless zone.
Once across the border, Su Chen could enter the Golden Triangle.
This time, Su Chen didn't let Lang Sha escort him.
He planned to enter the Golden Triangle as a smuggler.
And then figure out a way to get close to Heavenly.
Only by infiltrating Heavenly could he possibly rescue Ye Yu.
Su Chen lit a cigarette and scanned the surroundings.
It was a deserted area.
But there were still Border Guards patrolling.
However, his luck wasn't too bad.
There was no one patrolling at the moment.
Therefore, he just lit a cigarette, put it in his mouth, and boldly walked toward the border line.
Remembering the last time he crossed the border, he almost got turned into a sieve by machine guns, this time it seemed a bit too easy.
"Halt!"
However, just as Su Chen's foot was about to cross the national border, a cold shout rang out.
