The next day.
Early morning.
The jeep drove into the Academy’s gate, surrounded by cheers rising like a swarm.
It should be known that this mission with Li Yan and Gu Tong was no small matter—one resolved a SARS dical challenge, while the other tackled a complex case in the Provincial City.
Their tacit cooperation resulted in outstanding achievents, completing the tasks beyond expectations, especially dealing with the long-standing tough case in the Provincial City. News of their success spread throughout the Academy, and the Provincial City even called to comnd them.
The trainees’ morale was boosted, and the cheers were strong. Of course, none were more enthusiastic than the Warhawk Class 1 and the trainees from the dical Center.
The jeep drove towards the Academy Courtyard, with the sound resonating for a while before gradually disappearing.
Finally, the car stopped at the central location of the Academy, relatively close to the dical Center. Reaching here ant that Gu Tong and Li Yan would part ways, so they exchanged a few simple words.
After getting out of the car, they went their separate ways to report to their respective groups.
Gu Tong returned to the dical Center, briefly filed a simple report, and was then t with flowers and applause.
However, having been busy recently, the feeling of exhaustion took over, and she especially wanted to go ho to rest and enjoy so rare free ti.
It should be noted that she, as a Baron, had not held the position for long before becoming overwheld with work.
The people at the dical Center deeply understood Gu Tong’s situation and cared for her, so they quickly let her go without any further persuasion.
Walking along the Academy road, Gu Tong’s heart was filled with emotions, fernting various feelings in her chest.
...
Under the birch tree, the Academy Uniform blended with the tree trunk, and the fallen hat obscured Mo Zishuang’s original expression. She looked at the ground as if lost in thought, or perhaps waiting for soone.
This road was the only way back to the Academy Courtyard, and upon seeing the person ahead, Gu Tong couldn’t help but be inexplicably startled.
"Hello, Officer Mo."
It had been a long ti since Gu Tong last saw Mo Zishuang, and now eting her again, with a change in roles, Gu Tong still maintained a bit of courtesy.
Mo Zishuang lifted her head, gazed at Gu Tong for a mont, slightly moved her lips, and said: "Congratulations, Baron Gu."
Mo Zishuang hadn’t congratulated Gu Tong after her promotion, so this greeting was not considered tardy.
"What’s there to congratulate? It just ans more work. I still prefer a leisurely position, enjoying my freedom."
Indeed, speaking is an art, and Gu Tong’s words carried so implications.
Before the previous mission with Gong Chenli, Mo Zishuang had sought out Gu Tong, and they had a secret conversation.
During that ti, Mo Zishuang promised to tell Gu Tong so things after the mission was completed, despite it being against the rules.
However, upon their return, they were both swamped with tasks, so Gu Tong never sought out Mo Zishuang, until now, without any news.
Now, having run into Mo Zishuang, how could Gu Tong not bring up that promise?
"Isn’t this place not far from the Academy Courtyard?"
Mo Zishuang pretended to be confused, intentionally making a comnt.
"Would Officer Mo be interested in coming to my ho for tea?"
Gu Tong, not naive, went along with the suggestion, responding directly.
She understood that Mo Zishuang ant to find a quiet place to talk.
Likewise, it was this sentence that made Gu Tong truly realize that Mo Zishuang was deliberately waiting for her.
"Of course."
Mo Zishuang did not refuse.
The two, with their separate concerns, headed towards the nearby Academy Courtyard.
