Chapter 17

Xiao Muting rolled up the sleeves of his shirt, revealing the scar, "This one, it fell from a previous mission."

Shao Fei sat upright, not daring to make a sound, for fear that Xiao Muting would stop talking if he spoke.

Dogs barking came from the dog farm in the distance, Xiao Muting looked back at Shao Fei, and said with a smile: "Don't be so nervous, look at you, your muscles are tense."

Shao Fei thought that Xiao Muting's "mission" was just a slip of the tongue, but Xiao Muting said: "You have made such a fuss, I have thought about it, instead of playing Tai Chi with you all the time, it's better to go all out with you, so as to save you from being blind all day long." Guess."

Shao Fei stood up abruptly, his eyes glowing with excitement.

"Sit down." Xiao Muting patted the seat beside him, "Do you want to listen while standing in a military posture?"

Shao Fei quickly sat down, staring at Xiao Muting intently.Xiao Muting stroked the scar, and said in a low voice, "You guessed right, I am also a special soldier. The bomb disposal expert and sniper you guessed are all my roles in the team. As for the spy, I have never done it before. Doesn't count?"

"you……"

"I have been at the headquarters for more than ten years." Xiao Muting crossed his fingers, "Earlier, I was in the Zhanlong Special Warfare Brigade, and I knew you, Ning Team and Luo Team. My family is also like you and Ai Xin know. A certain background. As for political cadres and idlers, I did hang out at the headquarters for a year last year."

Shao Fei was fascinated, "But why?"

"Why are you hanging around?" Xiao Muting smiled wryly, "Because I suffered a serious injury, I almost didn't wake up."

Shao Fei: "You..."

"Did you know about the joint operation between the headquarters and Falcon in northern Myanmar two years ago?" Xiao Muting asked.

"I know! Team Ning replaced Team Luo as captain after that operation." Shao Fei asked, "Did you get injured during that operation?"

"En." Xiao Muting nodded, "It took quite a long time to heal and recover."

"But," Shao Fei didn't understand, "but why didn't you return to the combat post after you recovered from your injury?"

Even if he no longer has missions, he won't be transferred to be a political cadre.

"On the one hand, it's the meaning of my family. My father only has two sons. I, a special soldier; my brother, a special police officer. When I was injured, my father was too old to accept it. In addition, in that operation, I and several There was a conflict between the heads of state..."

"What did you do?"

"Don't ask me that." Xiao Muting said, "Anyway, I was withdrawn from the combat position. I was a political cadre in name, but no one dared to let me do ideological work as a soldier. I was idle for more than half a year until Ning The team and the Los Angeles team asked me to come over."

Shao Fei still had doubts: "But why have you been wearing military uniforms since you came to Falcon? Me and other comrades in arms misunderstood you because of the military uniforms. You don't usually take us to train."

"I was prohibited from participating in combat training and was not allowed to lead troops. I am no longer a special soldier."

"How could this be?"

"You can understand it as my disobedience in that operation, and I was punished."

Shao Fei frowned and thought, "Is there a time limit for this punishment?"

Xiao Muting didn't give a clear answer, only said: "It's coming soon."

"You... you wear a military uniform that is incompatible with the status of a special soldier. Did you deliberately show it to the headquarters? Show your dissatisfaction?"

Xiao Muting turned back and smiled: "That's right."

After getting along for several months, Shao Fei guessed that Xiao Muting was not easy, but Xiao Muting admitted that he was overjoyed, his heart beat a little fast, and he became proud for no reason. just saying.

This is the secret between him and Team Xiao!

Xiao Muting asked with a smile: "Do you really want to tell your teammates?"

"No, no, no!" Shao Fei was categorical, "Not at all, Captain Xiao, trust me, I will never talk nonsense."

"If you don't believe me, I didn't tell you so much just now." Xiao Muting said: "It will be long in the future, everyone will understand in the future."

Shao Fei felt a little guilty, "Did I bother you?"

"Not really, it's just that I'm too curious." Xiao Muting said, "This is an advantage, but also a disadvantage. You still have to calm down in the future, especially when you are on a mission."

"understand!"

Xiao Muting nodded, seeing that it was getting late, and just about to get up, he heard Shao Fei say again: "Captain Xiao, is the scar on your arm from that time?"

Xiao Muting was startled slightly, his eyes changed quietly, "This is an injury several years ago."

"Can you tell me about it?"

"very curious?"

Having just received a comment of "too much curiosity", Shao Fei was a little embarrassed, lowered his head, and nodded slightly.

Xiao Muting said: "I was injured when I was hunting down an arms smuggling gang on the Sino-Russian border. It looks like a big scar, but it's actually not serious. But..."

Shao Fei waited for the next sentence, Xiao Muting's voice became a bit lower: "We lost four excellent comrades in arms."

A few seconds later, Xiao Muting said: "Stop talking, it's all over."

Shao Fei let out an "oh", thinking of his elder brother, he couldn't help feeling depressed.

Xiao Muting got up and waved to him, "Let's go, we're going back."

On the way to the administrative building, Xiao Muting didn't speak anymore, Shao Fei thought for a long time, and suddenly grabbed Xiao Muting's clothes.

Xiao Muting turned around, "What's wrong?"

Shao Fei's eyes were serious: "Captain Xiao, you are so strict with me because you want to grind my temper and prevent me from getting involved in tasks in the future. You told me so much today because you want me to calm down and stop thinking about it. Is it right?"

Xiao Muting sighed softly, "Just understand."

Shao Fei stood at attention, raised his chest and raised his head, his gaze was like a torch, "Captain Xiao, don't worry. From now on, I will definitely listen to you, do whatever you ask me to do, don't be rash, don't get petty, and don't care about things that shouldn't be meddled, and train my mind well. I will protect myself when I go out on missions in the future, so I won’t let you worry about it!”

"You..." Xiao Muting smiled: "Okay, I have something to discuss with Ning team later, you are still injured, go back and rest, don't practice more today."
