Chapter 3752: 3753
The train station was a little dilapidated. A group of 20 people entered the station in a line with the passengers who were waiting together. There was no special treatment. They were sent to the company to train. Why would they be given special treatment? The tickets were all for economy class.
The broadcast was mentioning the number of trains that were about to arrive and the number of trains that were about to depart. Ye Jian and the rest walked out of the waiting room with the staff holding up their placards. Once they came out of the waiting room, the 20 of them walked in a very orderly formation. However, the passengers behind rushed out and broke their formation. Some passengers even used their carrying poles to carry things, causing one of the male students to stagger…
Winter vacation was close to the Spring Festival. There were many passengers going home, and there was a lot of luggage. Now, everyone understood why Commissar Yue specially told them not to carry too much luggage… There was no place to put their luggage!
When they arrived, the entire entrance was blocked. Everyone was in a hurry to get into the train and only cared about squeezing in. In the end, the more they squeezed, the more they couldn’t get in. The staff shouted at the top of their lungs and pushed the people behind hard. Only then could the people in front get in.
Ye Jian and the rest waited until everyone got in before they lined up. They received countless attention and discussions.
The staff member wiped his sweat and muttered softly, “You still have the awareness of a soldier.”
When the 20 of them were inside the bus, they were all drenched in sweat. They held their soldier caps in one hand and carried their small camouflage luggage in the other. Finally, they all got on the train.
Ye Jian and the rest were already in their third year. They wouldn’t be joining the company again until after they graduated. The students yearned for company life, so they couldn’t help but be excited when they got on the train.
They had train tickets, and they were seated in economy class. The air in the carriage was foul. It was seven o’clock, and the foul air was filled with all kinds of food smells. This was nothing. The most uncomfortable thing was the indescribable stench.
Ye Jian’s sense of smell was quite sharp. This smell was no less than a chemistry bomb to her. Even though her nose had been a little stuffy these few days, the smell still made her stomach churn.
Ye Jian rubbed the tip of her nose lightly. She leaned against the window and listened to the female student quietly. Occasionally, she would agree with her.
The accompanying female student came from the Faculty of Mathematics and Systems Science. She had been looking forward to being transferred to the company for a long time. She sat down and spoke to Ye Jian in a low voice. She talked about the company.
The 20 of them sat in the same compartment. They were all wearing military uniforms and were sitting upright. Even when they communicated, they only tilted their bodies slightly. They maintained strict military discipline all the time and didn’t embarrass the school and the military unit.
They spoke softly and became the topic of discussion and observation of all the passengers in the carriage. Some passengers had never sat on the same train as the soldiers in military uniforms. They looked at Ye Jian and the rest as if they were looking at a rare object. They looked at them curiously.
Even though Ye Jian and the rest were well-trained, when they were stared at by the passengers in the carriage, the group of 20 people felt a little shy. They straightened their backs, afraid that they would lose their image as soldiers.
On the seat facing Ye Jian, the middle-aged men who were returning home spoke one after another. Every word floated into Ye Jian’s ears.
