Chapter 10

Ah? Oh, okay, okay.

The staff member swallowed, then hurriedly dumped the beast carcasses from the package onto the table.

Not to mention those rookie newbies; even he, who has worked here for years, has never seen such a fierce logistics soldier!

Anyone who reaches the Second-stage Martial Apprentice level will be selected as a Combat Soldier.

With the strength of a First-stage Martial Apprentice, wanting to hunt so many beasts is undoubtedly a fantasy.

Moreover, the other party is acting alone with just one person.

Fang Yan and the others, seeing the spotlight stolen, had everyone's attention fall on Gu Han alone; they were rather displeased, but they also stood aside and watched.

"One blue wolf, three gray wolves, totaling eighty logistics points."

"Sixty-three rabbits, totaling sixty-three logistics points."

"A total of one hundred forty-three logistics points."

Looking at the corpses of the four wolf beasts, all the logistics soldiers were already stunned.

Their hearts were thumping wildly without cease!

Even the weakest wolf beast, they, a squad, joining forces, dare not rashly provoke!

And this young man, who is also a logistics soldier, actually killed four wolf beasts by himself?

Upon hearing the one hundred forty-three logistics points, the logistics soldiers all swallowed nervously.

It far exceeds Fang Yan's squad's logistics points by more than double; they can absolutely secure first place!

"No! This is impossible!"

Fang Yan in the crowd had his eyes bloodshot, furious to the point of almost spitting fire.

"With Senior Li Xuan present, how could you possibly have time to hunt so many wolves? You must be cheating!"

As soon as those words were spoken, many people's gazes instantly turned toward Fang Yan.

Fang Yan's face changed drastically; he instantly realized he had misspoken and hastily covered his mouth.

Just then, Qian Fu from the Statistics Office happened to walk over from afar, looking at Fang Yan with a grim face,

"What did you mean by what you just said?"

"I... I didn't mean anything; I was just talking nonsense."

Fang Yan's face was extremely flustered, and even his speech stuttered a bit.

"I advise you to make your words clear."

Qian Fu gave Fang Yan a cold stare,

"Otherwise, you'll likely be charged with slandering a comrade."

Fang Yan, panicking and drenched in sweat, yet in his flustered state had a brainwave and spoke in a low voice,

"It's this guy; he's in the same squad as Ma Tie and a few others. Earlier he stole our blue wolf carcass and even injured us. Senior Li Xuan came to seek justice for us and took the blue wolf back."

"Who knows what trick he used, but after deceiving Senior Li Xuan, he then snatched the blue wolf from our hands."

"One begets two; those wolf beast corpses in their hands must have been snatched from other squads!"

As soon as those words were spoken, the surrounding logistics soldiers immediately became agitated, chattering away.

"I thought this guy could actually hunt so many beasts alone; turns out he stole them from others."

"He's just one person; even counting his teammates, there are at most five. How could they possibly snatch wolf beast carcasses from those capable of hunting them?"

"Who says it's impossible? Look at who those few people beside him are."

Someone hid in the crowd and quietly pointed at Gu Chen and the others,

"These are all Combat Soldiers; with Combat Soldiers backing him, he can loot others' prey without effort!"

"But aren't Combat Soldiers training in the afternoon? How could they help Gu Han steal things?"

"Ask these logistics soldiers—who dares to defy a Combat Soldier's will?"

The speakers, hidden in the crowd, could not even be distinguished as to who they were.

But with many voices echoing, under the instigation of some ill-intentioned people, Gu Han, relying on his influence, bullying others and looting prey, is almost becoming a fact in the military camp!

Gu Chen and his brothers' faces turned grim; they never expected that coming to greet him would instead become an excuse for others to slander Gu Han!

"You damned bastard, stop spitting blood there!"

Before Gu Han could speak, Ma Tie was the first unable to stay seated, he ferociously rushed to Qian Fu's side, glared at Fang Yan, and quickly said,

"Officer, don't listen to his nonsense; this blue wolf was killed by us first, and this guy gathered ten logistics soldiers to try to seize our prey."

"As a result, their skills weren't enough; they lost to Gu Han, and even brought in Li Xuan to back them up!"

A ripple of mocking laughter came from the crowd.

"You'll naturally choose the statement that benefits you; who knows if what you're saying is true?"

Qian Fu, seeing this scene, also felt a bit troubled.

In the past, logistics soldiers never caused such a ruckus.

"Alright, alright, everyone quiet down; since there's a problem, we will naturally get to the bottom of it."

"The military will not wrong any good person, nor let any bad person off; please rest assured."

With Qian Fu's assurance, the hundreds or thousands of logistics soldiers only then became somewhat restrained.

Qian Fu looked toward Fang Yan,

"Do you have evidence for what you said?"

"If it's just your one-sided account, we cannot possibly convict Gu Han."

Fang Yan glanced at Gu Chen and the others walking over slowly, with hostile eyes, feeling his hair stand on end.

He has now basically offended Gu Han's brothers to death.

If today we cannot crush them, we will inevitably face Gu Chen's revenge!

Fang Yan's thoughts shifted rapidly, revealing a fearful expression toward Gu Han.

「Officer, who doesn't know that Gu Han has several Combat Soldier brothers? If it weren't true, how could a mere Logistics Soldier like me dare to frame Gu Han? 」

「But when he seized our prey, no one else was present; even Senior Li Xuan hasn't returned yet, and the sole witness is absent. 」

Fang Yan's expression, seen by Qian Fu, was nothing but fear of Gu Han's revenge.

Fang Yan continued speaking.

「Officer, think about it—no matter what Gu Han says, he's just a Logistics Soldier, his strength at most a First-stage Martial Apprentice. 」

「Even our squad working together finds it hard to ambush and kill wolf beasts; how could Gu Han alone manage to hunt so many? 」

「He must have seized these prey from other squads! 」

Qian Fu listened to Fang Yan's words and nodded thoughtfully.

According to common sense, the situation Fang Yan speculated is indeed reasonable.

But even if Li Xuan were here, as Fang Yan's squad-leading veteran, he would naturally stand beside Fang Yan and the others.

Li Xuan's words cannot serve as testimony.

All these circumstances are merely speculation, insufficient to serve as evidence to convict Gu Han.

Qian Fu looked at the other Logistics Soldiers whispering nearby and asked loudly,

「Most of the Logistics Soldiers in our camp have already gathered; has Gu Han stolen prey from any of you? 」

After Qian Fu finished speaking, the crowd exchanged glances, yet no one stepped forward.

「Rest assured, as long as we confirm the facts, there's no need to worry about retaliation from those with ulterior motives. 」

Although Qian Fu's words didn't name names, anyone could see he was pointing at Gu Han's brothers.
