Chapter 44(1/3)
Chapter 44
This is the first time that Yin Xiaoman or the child has taken such a speedboat.
Although the rumbling sound of the engine made people's eardrums hurt and the smell of diesel made people's tears flow down uncontrollably, everyone was very excited.
Yin Xiaoman's face no longer had the same reserve and calmness as before, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but bend upward.
From the time she left the Pioneer Camp, the shackles that were imprisoned on her body seemed to be opened all of a sudden, and she became alive.
Although she was very tired from running back and forth, especially because she had to stare at the child and worry about the family's food, even Shen Qingyun was a little worried that she would not be able to hold on.
But the smile in the little woman's eyes never disappeared.
That kind of happiness is about to overflow.
At this moment, she, Dabao and Erniu were all standing by the railing, placing her head and tiptoing to look forward, her face full of curiosity and expectation.
Looking from a distance, the three of them are exactly the same, and they look like three siblings no matter how they look.
Shen Qingyun called them twice to sit down, but none of them were obedient.
He was so depressed that he could only like an old father, repeatedly asking them to grab the handrails and not move around...
Then he walked back to his seat.
As a result, before he could sit down, the middle-aged man smiled and glanced at him sideways: "Are you sure that is your wife?"
Although he didn't say it clearly, his eyes were full of sarcasm, "You are an old cow eating tender grass."
It made Shen Qingyun feel a little stomachache.
The middle-aged man is named Lu Ping. Although he looks young, he is actually forty years old. He is the leader of the security regiment under the security area and is also Shen Qingyun's current direct superior.
When he was training in Beijing, he had been dealing with this leader for a long time and was very familiar with each other.
Since the security of Zhongshan Island was handed over to the B Provincial Security District, Luping and his security regiment have shouldered this important task.
The first security battalion that Shen Qingyun was going to take this time was an important force stationed on the island, responsible for protecting the safety of experts in person.
But they are not the only ones.
Because the task of the attack team this time is too important, not only the other side of the sea, but also other hostile forces are also paying attention, and they are even looking for opportunities to sabotage.
Therefore, in the waters around the island, the security regiment arranged several other battalions to conduct daily inspections.
It has been less than a month since I received the order, so the safety work is still in the preparation stage.
Whether there are loopholes in security inspections, patrols, handovers, and whether there are any hidden dangers, everything is unknown.
If loopholes and hidden dangers are not completely eliminated, no one dares to make a guarantee to let the experts come.
And the capital city has a final time limit.
So recently Lu Ping did nothing else. He stayed on the boat every day, took a few subordinates in charge of this work, wandering around the entire reserve, carefully sorting out the process and finding out the loopholes.
So after receiving the request from Shen Qingyun's family that had arrived and wanted to apply for an island, he simply came here to pick it up in person.
It is five or six o'clock in the afternoon, and it is the most beautiful time for the sunset in the day.
Even though Yin Xiaoman grew up by the beach when she was a child, it was the first time for her to see the beautiful scenery in the sea.
Looking at the orange-red balls in the distance disappearing little by little under the sea level, the dazzling beauty deeply shocked her.
It made her more expectant and longing for her new home.
They sat on the speedboat for almost two hours until the sky turned completely dark and they had to take out their coats to keep the cold before finally reaching their destination.
Although Zhongshan Island was listed as a secret base by the army, it was not actually developed.
Even before it was determined to be the garrison for the new project, there was only one squad of young soldiers here taking turns to stay.
So it's actually very remote.
It even looks like there is no people from afar.
The family of four got off the boat in the dark and said goodbye to Lupin. Then, in the light specially made for them by the speedboat, stepped on the slippery rocks and finally got on the island.
Fortunately, before I took a few steps, I heard a sound of kicking and stomping footsteps, and then a few very young soldiers ran over from a distance.
"Hello battalion commander!"
They first saluted Shen Qingyun, and after he returned the salutation, they rushed over and quickly took the big suitcase they were carrying.
One of them straightforwardly picked up Erniu and carried it on his shoulders.
There was another little soldier who reached out to hug Dabao, but he was shyly avoided.
"Sister-in-law, I am Shi Lei, the platoon leader of the first guard platoon, and we are garrisoning on the island this month.
The residence has been sorted out, so let's take you to rest first."
The dark-skinned young man standing in front took the box from Yin Xiaoman's hand, grinned at her, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.
It's particularly dazzling to watch in the dark night.
After walking through the slippery rocks, accompanied and led by several young soldiers, they finally walked from the stop to a trail.
The trail is narrow and it is not even allowed to pass two people side by side.
The sky is too dark, and now they rely on the lighting of two flashlights in front and back, so Yin Xiaoman couldn't see the surrounding environment clearly.
But she could feel the road under her feet bumpy, and even if she accidentally got her clothes hanging by the branches protruding from both sides.
Judging from the situation of this road, it doesn’t seem like it’s specially repaired, but it’s like the kind of person who is trampled out by cows, horses and wild animals for many years.
After walking for about ten minutes, they finally walked to a relatively gentle slope.
It has obviously been repaired.
The ground has been widened and all have been hardened.
The ground was covered with large stone slabs, which were flat and flat.
There is even a site at the end of the road where cement is poured into the shape of a playground.
There are two basketball racks on both sides of the playground, which are clearly for soldiers to use for training and entertainment.
The residence arranged for Shen Qingyun and his family was next to this playground, where a special area was divided and several rows of houses were built.
These houses are not as big as the ones they had in Pioneer Camp before, and there is no space between households, and there is no special yard around the house.
And it can be clearly seen that although there are 40 or 50 sets, there are actually no one living there.
At least at this moment, all the houses were dark and had no popularity.
Sure enough, before Shen Qingyun could ask, Shi Lei took the initiative to introduce: "Battery Commander, the dormitory of the Guard Company is on the west side of the hillside, and this is a dormitory specially built for experts.
There is only one sister-in-law on the military industry on our island, and she is specialized in the lives of experts.
So Captain Lu asked his family to be placed here as well."
As he said that, Shi Lei showed a honest smile and looked at Shen Qingyun and asked: "Battery Commander, which one do you want to live in?
That, the experts have not arrived yet, the house is all empty, so choose whatever you want.”
Sure enough, it was the same as Yin Xiaoman guessed.
So, after Shen Qingyun cast a questioning look at her, she pointed to the last row without hesitation, the innermost building: "Live there."
There are many secrets at home, so people come and go in the front row, so naturally they are not convenient to live at the end.
Regarding such family affairs, Shen Qingyun naturally followed his wife to make decisions. He nodded and asked Shi Lei and the others to help bring the things over.
After entering the door, Yin Xiaoman looked around and found that the layout was actually no different from that of Pioneer Camp.
They are all one living room and two bedrooms.
The kitchen is located near the living room, and the toilet is not far outside the room.
Perhaps the design drawings for the troops building houses are the same. Except for the smaller room, they don’t even need to adapt to the others.
And just as Shen Qingyun said before, the things in the room were prepared in advance.
Needless to say, tables, chairs, benches, the kitchen is equipped with bowls, chopsticks, pots and utensils, and even the beds in the room are laid out.
But the two bedrooms were all like military soldiers' dormitories, with two camp beds in one room, each facing the wall.
There is a single wardrobe next to each bed, and two beds are separated by two desks side by side. There is a desk lamp on the desk and a square stool is placed under each bed.
Each bed is covered with snow-white sheets and a green military quilt is placed on the head of the bed.
The quilts were folded into square tofu pieces.
It looks very neat and beautiful.
Yin Xiaoman was very satisfied with all this.
But looking at the two single beds far away, Shen Qingyun finally couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
But no one around him could see his dissatisfaction.
After seeing my sister-in-law nodding with satisfaction, Shi Lei smiled and said, "Battery Commander, sister-in-law, you have been tired for a day, so let's take a break early today.
Let’s go back first, let’s talk about what’s missing, and we’ll meet tomorrow.”
