164: What if it was a sack of bombs?
Zheng Jianfeng was being mysterious.
It seemed like something truly extraordinary was happening... He placed one hand over Su Yun's left chest.
It was exactly like comforting a patient with high blood pressure, soothing a young heart.
Su Yun turned around and glanced toward Officer Hong and his group.
He confirmed that the two men were carefully guarding the sack away from the crowd.
Indeed, the two men were true to their word and had not rashly opened the sack.
Su Yun let out a sigh of relief.
Regiment Commander Hu then solemnly asked, "Brother Su Yun! May I ask, what do you think of our Steel Regiment!?"
Huh!?
Regiment Commander Hu's expression was serious; he was neither joking nor being casual.
Su Yun thought for a moment, figuring Regiment Commander Hu wanted him to give an honest evaluation of the Steel Regiment.
He spoke frankly: "An emergency mechanized unit, with strong combat capability and fast reaction speed!"
Though the words were brief, internally, he felt shock and astonishment towards the Steel Regiment.
During the few days Su Yun had spent living in the Steel Regiment Military District, he had truly felt this firsthand.
Setting aside his own 'cheat' status, those ordinary soldiers, the troops who trained passionately every day... every single one, just like the name Steel Regiment implied, was as strong as steel, a tough bone, a true man!
Su Yun would not speak flowery words... and his evaluation landed upon He Zhendong's ears across the way.
He Zhendong smiled and nodded: "Not bad... the recent performance of the Steel Regiment has been seen by all of us."
"Keep up the good work in the future, especially concerning bomb disposal... you must continue to strive hard!"
Upon hearing this, Regiment Commander Hu and Zheng Jianfeng nodded.
Receiving praise from Commander He Zhendong face-to-face was not easy... Regiment Commander Hu patted his chest and guaranteed: "Old He, please rest assured, our Steel Regiment will continue to work hard..."
"We will continue to improve, continue to learn, and continue to strive in the area of bomb disposal!"
After speaking, those few military bomb disposal soldiers.
stepped forward and gave everyone a perfectly standard military salute: "Please rest assured!"
"Today... we were able to resolve one! In the future... we will be able to resolve ten! Hundreds!"
-- [That's strange! Why do I feel like Regiment Commander Hu and his group respect Old He so much!?]
-- [Is it because they respect the elderly and cherish the young?]
-- [Not necessarily... it's a respect that comes from the heart, from the depths of the soul!]
-- [Let me guess, Old He couldn't possibly be some high-ranking military official, could he?]
-- [No way? A high-ranking military official following Su Yun out to pick up junk...]
-- [Never mind Old He's identity for now, I just want to know... will they really be able to dismantle it later?]
What the hundreds of millions of fans and netizens in the livestream room were discussing was exactly what Su Yun was also suspicious of.
Beside him, Zheng Jianfeng saw that Regiment Commander Hu hadn't exposed anything, and Commander He hadn't explained... so he simply continued to tease: "Brother Su Yun, don't worry, this commendation ceremony definitely won't disappoint you!"
"I'll give you a little hint ahead of time... the Commander of our Southern Military Region will personally present you with the award!"
Commander!?
Su Yun was visibly stunned for a moment... Still unaware of the truth, he actually didn't want the Commander to present him with the award.
Because... he still hadn't mentioned the most explosive thing yet.
If they all knew that the sack contained bombs, how would they react!?
Su Yun grinned but said nothing.
He now understood everyone's thoughts: he really didn't want to rashly shatter their psychological defenses.
After tidying up the scene... Regiment Commander Hu stepped out to take charge: "Since there's nothing else, everyone please step back."
Some Police Officers responsible for perimeter security began getting into their cars and quietly leaving... He Zhendong took a few steps forward and patted Su Yun's shoulder: "Young Comrade Su Yun, you are very good."
"Although your luck isn't great... your heart is very pure."
"How about it? Should we continue cleaning up now?"
"I see there is still a lot of trash and scrap metal in the villa that hasn't been dealt with."
He was a man who saw things through.
Furthermore, he truly enjoyed the feeling of being with Su Yun and his group.
It was very relaxing, and very exciting... -- [Hahaha! Brothers, what is with Old He's expectant gaze!?]
-- [Damn it... I really can't hold back!]
-- [Stop picking up junk! If you pick up any more, your life will be gone...]
-- [I thought I was the one who loved to play, but I didn't expect there to be someone who loves it even more than me!]
-- [What an Old Rascal...]
Hearing this, Su Yun's lips curled up and twitched twice.
He wasn't curious about Old He's identity now.
He was just... a little worried about the mental state of everyone present.
However... there were some things he had no choice but to say.
"Old He, let's forget about picking up junk; today... let's call it a day for everyone!"
"Hey, right! That's the way to go!"
Regiment Commander Hu quietly walked over and laughed: "Young people need to know how to balance work and rest!"
Zheng Jianfeng chimed in, teasing: "Hahaha... if Brother Su Yun keeps picking things up, he'll cause trouble again!"
"Maybe, he'll pick up an entire armory next!"
Having had previous experience.
When they spoke these words now, surprisingly, they genuinely didn't sound scared... Fatty Wang Fan stood next to Su Yun.
He lowered his head and suddenly muttered: "If you ask me... everyone shouldn't celebrate too early..."
Bureau Chief Chen and the other police captains also gathered around.
"How about it? Should we all leave together now?"
"Let's go prepare for the commendation ceremony..."
Hmm... everyone is here... Su Yun glanced around.
It was about time.
He coughed twice, clearing his throat beforehand.
He said: "Everyone, I actually don't care much about the commendation ceremony or anything like that."
"I have a question... If, hypothetically..."
"Hypothetically!"
"What I just retrieved from the basement wasn't a prop, but a sack full of bombs!"
"What would your thoughts be!?"
As his voice fell... Everyone: ???
-- [Pfft hahaha! Brother Su finally couldn't hold back!]
-- [Explosive! Even in the realm of explosiveness, this is incredibly awesome!]
-- [Honestly, I've never seen anyone as outspoken as Brother Su!]
-- [The key is... he's genuinely not joking!]
-- [It's over, everyone will have to come back later...]
-- [So exciting! I'm already trembling all over!]
Hearing this.
Except for Fatty Wang Fan, who was scanning nervously with his head lowered.
Everyone else... Bureau Chief Chen was the first not to believe it: "Hahaha! Brother Su Yun just loves to joke around!"
"You kid... you're quite good at lightening the mood!"
Officer Hong also said: "Brother Su Yun, do you think I don't understand your little tricks?"
"Tell us, is it because you don't want to teach us your real skills!?"
Regiment Commander Hu and Zheng Jianfeng exchanged glances, completely unconcerned: "Brother Su Yun... stop joking already!"
"It's already extraordinary that we found one white phosphorus incendiary bomb in Huaxia; a whole sack!? It's simply impossible!"
Su Yun: "..."
Fine, he knew that if he said it out of the blue like this, no one would believe him.
Alas... he truly just wanted to be ordinary and honestly pick up some junk.
He didn't know about possibility or impossibility... but anyway, that sack of his contained all kinds of bombs.
Sometimes, explaining things could be extremely exhausting.
He Zhendong, as an Old Comrade, smiled: "Young Comrade Su Yun, is something troubling you?"
Su Yun nodded, his face serious: "Everyone, I really wasn't lying to you... that is truly a sack full of bombs!"
Fatty Wang Fan raised his hand: "I guarantee it on the two hundred pounds of fat on my body! My Brother is telling the truth!"
Chang Wei also "Awoo-awoo-ed," wishing he could speak human language immediately!
-- [It's over! Still nobody believes him!]
-- [I'm already lying in my bed secretly laughing...]
-- [Hahaha, a small knife scraping an ass—it really opened my eyes!]
