Chapter 44 - The Company Commanders Reaction to the Fight (2/2)

After the military rules were explained, everyone was given a book titled ‘Rules and Regulations of the Military’.

“Okay! Dismissed!”

The company commander his deputy left, while all the squad leaders collectively remained in the living quarters. They were to eat and live with the recruits.

The living quarters soon resumed to its previous liveliness. Deng Biao, who had been chatting with Qin Fen, now had his bedside phone in his hands. He was calling his family.

Remember to call me.

Qin Fen recalled Song Jia’s request. There hadn’t been any telephones he could have used out at see. If he didn’t call now, then it wouldn’t take long for him to receive a phone call from Song Jia saying, “I’m very displeased.”

First he imputed his own telephone number, then entered his password, and finally dialed Song Jia’s number.

With technological advancements, any public telephone could be temporarily turned into a personal telephone. This was also an effective method in preventing someone from calling an undesired or possibly dangerous person.

The caller ring-back tone of the phone rang its first note before the connection was made.

“Hello? Who is it? Talk.” Song Jia rapid-fire interrogation was quickly transmitted out of the phone.

After a slight pause, Qin Fen said, “Hello, it’s Qin Fen.”

“You finally called.” A hint of delight could be heard in Song Jia’s voice on the other end of the phone, “Your first phone call has come so late. I’m very displeased….”

Qin Fen laughed as he held the phone. He could imagine Song Jia’s cute appearance as she held her phone and said ‘I’m very displeased’.

“There weren’t phones on the ship….”Qin Fen finished explaining, “I just got some free time, so I called you right away.”

“Really?” Song Jia’s voice became even happier than before.”

“I’m very pleased~”

These words, which Qin Fen guessed she would say, were heard in this second through the receiver.

“How are you doing over there?” Song Jia instantly changed the topic, asking very concerned, “Is it tough in the military? Remember to practice it when you’re tired.”

“I’m all right. I have practiced it,” Qin Fen responded. Then Song Jia wanted him to talk about his days as a recruit. Qin Fen cleared his throat and began talking about swimming in the ocean, the training on the ship, and the virtual aerial combat.

Qin Fen normally didn’t talk much, but he could still express himself with language. His narration was vivid and colorful, causing Song Jia to exclaim in admiration over and over on the other side of the phone.

After Qin Fen finished talking about the scuffle with the recruits from the Autonomous State of Korea, Song Jia became a bit quiet on her end of the phone. A moment passed before she said very seriously, “Qin Fen. It’s best not to provoke Park Jong-Hwan. I’ve heard of his name before. Even though he is the tenth disciple of the Autonomous State of Korea’s Number One Martial God, rumor has it that his innate talent is extraordinary and outstanding. His strength approaches his fellow senior disciples, and Bae Seong-Joon is really happy about his Neo Taekwondo.”
