You don’t believe us, but you believe some trivial accusation letter.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even if others thought it was a fight, we’ve already made up. I’ve accepted the warning; it shouldn’t be enough for a punishment, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Huai asked directly if the incident was serious enough to warrant a punishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was designed to put Liang Longhui in a position where he couldn’t escalate the matter further, yet couldn’t downplay it either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Huai’s defensive strategy was so strong, it blocked any potential lecture from Liang Longhui.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, after last night, Liang Longhui truly had no intention of targeting Fang Huai anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The older soldiers were already discontent. Just yesterday, Xiang Zhiyuan from his squadron’s Second Squad Leader came to talk to him, saying that the squad leaders all felt it inappropriate to treat the new recruit this way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he did not want to swallow his pride quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He just wanted to use this incident to \"correct\" Fang Huai’s attitude by having him publicly write a self-criticism, admit his mistake for confronting him yesterday, and reestablish his own authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, if he pressed Fang Huai to write a self-criticism again, and if Fang Huai made a big deal out of it, his reputation would only continue to plummet, possibly reaching a breaking point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he wasn’t foolish in not asking for details.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought that just based on the contents of Jiang Peng’s report from last night, he had enough to suppress Fang Huai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Huai’s enlistment motivation had been discussed by Hao Chengbin with Squad Six Leader, and it was already known throughout the company: a military family, joining the troops with the goal of earning accolades.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He certainly didn’t want to get written up before earning any honors, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unexpectedly, this kid could still be so stubborn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finding his intimidation tactic ineffective, Liang Longhui turned to look at Wang Jian and passed the question off to him: \"Wang Lian, during training, how do you think fighting should be handled?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Jian wasn’t a fool either. He didn’t want to deal with this hot potato, frowned a bit, glanced at the \"accusation letter,\" and spoke hesitantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This... if both people say there was no fight, shouldn’t we call the person who made the accusation over and investigate a bit?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the situation wasn’t clear now, whoever wrote this, call them over. I will call the squad leader over later to take the person away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, take care of the one who made the accusation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Longhui gave a laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh, does this situation require calling someone over? Those who were there that day could clarify everything with a single question.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Jian took a deep breath, feeling that the situation was difficult to smooth over, as there were too many parties involved. He had no choice but to stick to the facts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Both of them are backbones among our company’s new recruits, and they both consider it a sparring match.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, they don’t have any conflict.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if they fought, Fang Huai is up next for the Regiment Knowledge Competition, and the Chief of Staff has asked him to write a promotional song, to compete for honors on behalf of our company.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I think a warning will suffice, a formal disciplinary record is unnecessary.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Huai suddenly spoke up, as something occurred to him: \"Company Leader, that day the squad leader had already punished us with an hour of push-ups, and Advisor Zhang had already dealt with the issue on the spot. He said it was nothing serious, and had me and Zhang Yizhang shake hands and make up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe you could ask him about it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Almost forgot to include Advisor Zhang in this, might as well offend everyone together, it’ll save you from having it too easy in your future work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Jian’s eyes lit up and he gave the table a pat, saying, \"You see, Advisor Zhang, the team leader, had already dealt with it, which means the Regiment Department is already aware. It would be inappropriate for us to reprocess it, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph, whether the Regiment Department knows or not, is still uncertain, Advisor Zhang...\" Liang Longhui started, but remembering the three people around him weren’t on his side, he refrained from speaking ill, instead taking on a somewhat gentler tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, Fang Huai, I ask you, you publicly claimed I was targeting you yesterday. Do you think you were wrong in this matter?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Huai was taken aback for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn, are these two things even comparable? You weren’t targeting me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Instructor Liang, you’re the leader. My tone was not right yesterday, and that was my problem.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll admit at most to my bad tone, nothing more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tone? The matter of you saying I was targeting you has touched upon my personal reputation. Don’t you think you should reflect on that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Throughout the back-and-forth, Liang Longhui finally explicitly stated his demand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since joining the troops half a month ago, Fang Huai had always abided by the principle of \"social etiquette.\" He understood Liang Longhui’s words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Backing down once, for the sake of peace and everyone’s happiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone targets me, and I should apologize while they just get away with it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he was thinking, the screen in front of Fang Huai brightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Task: You’re a soldier now, why be timid? Stand up to him! (Refuse all PY transactions)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Fang Huai read these words, he felt like laughing wildly inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fuck, just what I wanted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Instructor Liang, yesterday’s issue is unrelated to this one, right? If I don’t think I was wrong yesterday, does it mean you’ll use this incident to punish me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Fang Huai spoke, yesterday’s gaze slowly resurfaced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Wang Jian immediately interjected: \"Fang Huai, watch your tone when speaking!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could finish, Liang Longhui had already lost his patience and slammed the table, rising to his feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ve never seen a new recruit who doesn’t listen to instructions like you! Fine! We’ll deal with this by the book! If a demerit is warranted, then it will be recorded!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Huai chuckled: \"Instructor Liang, the company only has the authority to impose up to severe warnings. For a demerit, you’d need to report to the Regiment Department.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Longhui undid a button on his collar, pointed at Fang Huai, and yelled, \"Do I need your reminder? I know how to handle this! If I can’t deal with you, I might as well not be an instructor!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his mind, Zhang Yizhang cursed inwardly a thousand times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You two argue all you want.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the way things were going, he was set to incur a demerit after finally making it into the troops following two years as a militiaman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The markedly robust man couldn’t help but tug at Fang Huai, whispering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t be rash...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Jian was also trying to calm Liang Longhui down into his seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Huai turned his head and saw Zhang Yizhang looking utterly downcast and couldn’t help but feel speechless: \"Don’t worry, since Instructor Liang wants to deal with me, you just go ahead and say I beat you up. I’ll take responsibility for this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yizhang’s eyebrows twitched. At this pivotal moment, he was still stubbornly adhering to Squad Leader Pan’s rhetoric.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That was a sparring session!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Jian saw everyone getting louder and louder, didn’t want to cause any more trouble, and quickly pressed down on Liang Longhui with one hand while gesturing with the other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Enough! Fang Huai, you go back first!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as Fang Huai left the Brigade Department, he immediately received a prompt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Task Completion.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Please choose your reward.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[1. Memory lvl1]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[2. Kidney enhancement]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[3. Slight increase in leg strength]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Huai swallowed hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dammit, kidney enhancement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He suddenly found that the second option always seemed very appealing to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, I can’t agree this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Option one! Option one!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While mentally chanting that, Fang Huai couldn’t help but stare at the fading kidney enhancement option.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next time for sure!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Huai felt a sudden twinge in his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, the world went dark before his eyes, and some things began to slowly emerge in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disappointed look on his dad’s face when they checked his college entrance exam scores.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he left for the military, he was still arguing with his family about getting a job. He said that he would rather sell condoms than join the military.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was his mother who called, tricking him by saying they had already submitted his information and that if he didn’t enlist, he’d have to go to jail, which grudgingly brought him back home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And there was Cao Peng’s uncle, whom he had actually met before. At an uncle’s birthday banquet, his uncle introduced him as Uncle Cao from Liupanshui, Guizhou, and said that if his exam results were poor, he could enlist with him...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He never consistently liked Huang Jiaojiao. During his service, a girl appeared at the stationed area, and he chased after her while lying that he had no girlfriend. Still, it came to nothing...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he was 11 years old, he wet the bed once, and his mother, thinking he had the same kidney problems as his father, went searching for doctors and remedies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first time he had a wet dream, it was while sleeping at school. He woke up thinking he had wet the bed again, and anxiously used a classmate’s water bottle, pretending to drink as he dampened his pants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In middle school, he liked a girl who sat in front of him. He noticed a band-aid mark on her back, carelessly pulled it away and flicked it, making her cry loudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the college entrance exam, he got drunk at a gathering and insisted on swearing brotherhood with Guan Erge in a KTV room, even dragging the class teacher down on his knees...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that class reunion, no one ever invited him again. It was only after his buddy Chen Shuang told him about it that he learned there was a class group chat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first time he entertained a client, he got tipsy, forced him to have a cigarette, and even lit the cigarette butt in his mouth. When the client wanted to throw it away, he protested, \"If you throw it away, that means you look down on me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many details of past events became clearer and clearer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The social beatings he had endured, the social defeats, were actually all brought on by his youthful self...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And to think he still blamed society.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn, this is so damn embarrassing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When memory improves, some of the memories he had self-blocked and forgotten come back as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It turns out memories can also keep things from oneself. In every instance of blaming the world, he had forgotten just how many foolish things he had done.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At noon, right after Fang Huai and his team finished lunch and returned to the squad, they heard arguing from the Brigade Department. It wasn’t just Liang Longhui and Wang Jian, judging by the voices, at least two or three squad leaders were involved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the less than ten-degree winter, the Brigade Department was unexpectedly heated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just after lunch, Pan Zhaohui, who had somehow found a toothpick, was picking his teeth, looking like a mob boss as he passed Fang Huai and glanced curiously before sneaking up to eavesdrop, and finally pushed the door to the Brigade Department, joining the localized network.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The protagonist of the incident, Fang Huai, meanwhile, rounded up the new recruits from Squad Nine into their squad room to keep them from being curious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knowing too much wasn’t good for his credibility; Yue Tao still had to worry. If the Regiment Department came to question him, Fang Huai could take all the responsibility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the instructor who felt his power immense would probably want to give him a demerit as an example to others. Let it be so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, Fang Huai, I think I just heard them mentioning your name!\" Lu Zexian turned around with a curious expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Huai pushed him again and quickly hustled the youngsters into the squad room. He glanced around the room, felt the Internal Affairs were clearly not as good as usual, and started assigning tasks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop with the nonsense and get inside. What are you so curious about?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The squad leader is coming back tomorrow! Get the Internal Affairs sorted out! Liu Yue’s marching has improved a lot now. You’re a direct student of the Company Leader, so take the time to practice well. Give him a surprise when the squad leader comes back!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s 12:50 now, you can rest for half an hour. I’ll wake you up when it’s time, and then either make your bed, clean, or practice your marching!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Didn’t you say he was coming back on Friday? Tomorrow’s only Thursday!\" Yue Tao, who has a surprisingly good memory, pinpointed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Huai scratched his head: \"Ah? Isn’t tomorrow Friday? Oh! I got the days mixed up!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The squad leader said it’s tomorrow!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The squad leader mentioned he’d bring back snacks for you all. If he’s not satisfied, all the treats will go straight to the trash!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he finished speaking, a slightly overweight figure stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Yong looked around, unsure of what to do next.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he walked over to the table, picked up a towel, and started wiping the corners of the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While wiping, he also reminded everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s all pay a bit more attention to cleanliness these next few days, alright?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Huai nodded in approval: \"Oh right! About the regulations test yesterday, three of you scored below 60, right? The squad leader said he’ll quiz each of you individually when he comes back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The squad immediately became busy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sheesh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These big shots are really not easy to please, just take it one day at a time.\u003C\u002Fp>",2340,"2026-06-02T10:16:52.042Z",1,"novelbin.me","69a68ffe202a99b20ad5fceafb8cc139d5f215f4d87c66ee95832cd8f0aa3744","after-being-reborn-i-became-a-firefighter-again-chapter-106","after-being-reborn-i-became-a-firefighter-again-chapter-104",807,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fafter-being-reborn-i-became-a-firefighter-again-cover.jpg"]
