Chapter 156: The “familiar” Girl
Seeing her best friend with that infatuated look, the short-haired girl rolled her lively eyes.
“Let’s go find him.”
“Find who?”
The girl in the front seat was caught off guard by her best friend’s abrupt words and didn’t react for a moment.
“Who do you think? Of course him.”
The short-haired girl stretched out her slender hand and pointed remotely in Chang Ning’s direction.
The girl in the front seemed tempted. She glanced at the clock hanging above the blackboard and said, “But class is about to start. If we go out now, the homeroom teacher will definitely give you trouble.”
“Next period is his class!”
“There’s still some time. Let’s take a close look at him, then hurry back. I guarantee he won’t catch us.”
The short-haired girl said confidently.
Seeing her best friend still hesitating, she knew it was just the final push needed and quickly added more encouragement.
“I swear on my snacks. If the homeroom teacher catches me, I’ll give all my snacks to you.”
“Well… okay.”
Her best friend usually loved snacks the most and often said: In this world, only good food cannot be let down. Swearing on her precious snacks today showed she was serious.
“Then let’s go quickly!”
With that, she pulled her best friend and rushed out of the classroom like a tomboy.
Some other classmates in the class saw this and wanted to follow to see Chang Ning, but they lacked the short-haired girl’s courage. Plus, with class about to start, getting caught by the homeroom teacher would mean a scolding, so the cost was too high and no one moved.
Another group probably didn’t get along with the girl usually. Seeing her run out of the class, they whispered something to the surrounding classmates—probably nothing good.
Chang Ning’s luck today was truly bad. When he arrived at this school, a class had just ended, and the students were all doing break activities.
Chatting amiably with friendly classmates, or boys and girls playfully teasing and laughing with each other.
The air everywhere was filled with youthful vitality.
So when Chang Ning controlled his parachute and just reached the airspace above the sports field, he was spotted by the active students.
“Quick, look! There’s a person floating in the sky!”
“I see it too!”
“…”
The commotion on the sports field drew many people’s attention, leading more and more to notice Chang Ning in his Wolf Fang hunter camouflage.
At this point, it was impossible for Chang Ning to leave. He was less than fifty meters from the ground, and that height wasn’t enough to support him controlling the parachute to fly away from the sports field.
Chang Ning had originally planned to land on the rooftop of the teaching building, but because his skills weren’t fully mastered, he deviated to the sports field.
“I knew it would end up like this.”
Looking at the junior high students gathering below to watch him, what Chang Ning needed to consider now was how to minimize the impact of this incident, then return to Wolf Fang.
If a trainee disappeared during training, Wolf Fang would definitely send people to search, so he had to act fast and find a way to report his situation to Gao Zhong Dui to avoid worrying everyone.
“Get out of the way quick!”
The ground below his feet was full of students. If Chang Ning continued descending in this situation, a stampede would definitely occur, leading to student injuries.
The students weren’t fools. Seeing the parachute with a person about to land, a large open ground immediately cleared at the spot where Chang Ning was descending.
The short-haired girl pulled her best friend—somehow squeezing through the thick crowd wall to reach the inner circle where they could see Chang Ning up close—and was now staring at him intently.
Having lived in the military unit for nearly a year, Chang Ning’s temperament differed greatly from ordinary people, standing out like a crane among chickens.
As soon as his feet touched the ground, Chang Ning ran forward a few steps using the momentum. The huge parachute canopy covered the students around him.
Due to the extremely crowded crowd, the short-haired girl and her best friend were also covered.
“Ouch!”
The covered students were more or less panicked.
“Let’s hold hands, grip tight.”
The short-haired girl said to her somewhat panicked best friend.
“Okay.”
Perhaps the warmth from her good friend’s hand gave her some strength, and the girl calmed down a lot.
After landing and shedding the momentum, Chang Ning immediately removed the armband on his body representing Wolf Fang. At this stage, all special forces units were confidential, and their details couldn’t be easily revealed.
In the troops, even regular units only had vague knowledge of some situations, like the unit’s name. Other things like leaders, personnel numbers, weapon configurations, or even the barracks were classified.
If not from the same special operations unit, such information was extremely hard to obtain.
Just like how Chang Ning had often studied the special forces of various domestic military regions, especially those units he had heard of in his previous life’s real world or seen in films and TV dramas.
These two types were Chang Ning’s key research targets, but the information from the internal troop network was all surface-level. The specifics were only known to them.
Just like how Wolf Fang’s internal network introduction had no information on 026 or Lone Wolf.
Surrounded by students, Chang Ning had no time to deal with these flowers of the motherland—at least not until he packed up the parachute.
“Hey! This little girl looks a bit familiar.”
As soon as Chang Ning lifted the parachute, he saw a little girl with big black-rimmed glasses and a short haircut holding hands with another little girl, standing in place. They stood out starkly from the chaotic classmates around them.
Seeing the familiar face, Chang Ning was obviously stunned. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and immediately recovered, calmly and swiftly folding the parachute without a change in expression.
“Big brother, need help? I’m good with my hands.”
Seeing Chang Ning busy alone, the short-haired girl felt like stepping forward to help.
“Mm-hmm!”
Her best friend, whose hand was being held by the short-haired girl, nodded frantically beside her, indicating she could vouch for it.
“No need, it’ll be done soon. See.”
To prove he really didn’t need help, Chang Ning folded the parachute in a few quick moves and put it into the parachute pack.
“Are you from the Northeast?”
Hearing the uniformed big brother suddenly say this to her, the short-haired girl responded, “No, why do you ask?”
“Oh, nothing.”
“You look a lot like a girl from the Northeast I know.”
While answering the girl’s question, Chang Ning mentally ruled out that this girl was Zhao Jinmai.
He wasn’t a celebrity chaser; he just occasionally watched TV, and celebrity gossip came from friends around him, so he didn’t know detailed info about stars.
‘Sigh, what’s wrong with me? I transmigrated myself, so what’s there to be surprised about encountering a little girl who looks like Zhao Jinmai.’
“Lin Miaomiao, skipping class again! Don’t leave after school. This time, wait for your parents to come pick you up!”
