Chapter 230: Chapter 10 Indeed a Foodie

Gu Xiaoxi ran all the way; now it was almost ten o’clock.

Before lights out, she had to return to the dormitory.

As for Xiao Xiao, if it had the ability to follow her to the dormitory building, she would be impressed.

Sure enough, as soon as Gu Xiaoxi rushed into the dormitory building, Xiao Xiao sat at the doorway and stopped.

By then, everyone in the troop who knew Xiao Xiao had gathered to watch.

It was indeed a rare sight; this military dog, which usually only slept and was too lazy to even stand up for a drink of water, had actually escaped its cage and was lying at the entrance of the girls’ dormitory.

Liu Fei received the report from others and immediately ran out of the dormitory to check the kennel.

The big iron gate was still securely locked. Had Xiao Xiao "broken out" of prison?

That afternoon, he had heard from people that this fellow had chased Gu Xiaoxi around the base for several laps and even followed her over the wall.

That evening, it was guarding the girls’ dormitory and refused to leave.

What unforgivable thing had Gu Xiaoxi done to it?

Eventually, Liu Fei spent a lot of effort to lead Xiao Xiao back to the kennel.

When Gu Xiaoxi returned to the dormitory, Zhang Ling and Qi Yu ran up to gossip.

At the same time, Gu Xiaoxi also met another one of her roommates.

A woman who did not like to talk and had a reclusive personality.

Taking advantage of the space while the woman was doing the laundry, Qi Yu told Gu Xiaoxi, "Her name is Yun Xiao, and she has been here for half a year. We never see her talk much. She does not even communicate with anyone; she ignores others when they speak. Her personality is so strange. It is said that she was transferred here from the Mech Armor Troops. Because she is not good at socializing, even if she has good physical and combat abilities, she could not stay in the front-line combat troops."

"So what you’re saying is, she’s very strong?" Gu Xiaoxi asked.

Zhang Ling and Qi Yu nodded at the same time.

Just then, Yun Xiao came in with a basin, not even giving Gu Xiaoxi a glance, organized her things, and then went to sleep under her blanket.

Gu Xiaoxi was taken aback; she had seen reclusive people but never one this reclusive.

She really didn’t care about anything.

Even with a new person in the dormitory, she wouldn’t even spare a glance.

Gu Xiaoxi was just curious about how powerful she was.

...

The days in the Sixth Unit passed by swiftly; every day, as soon as Gu Xiaoxi stepped out, Xiao Xiao would be chasing her.

At first, everyone was unaccustomed to it and gossiped, but after a while, they got used to it.

A woman and a dog became a scene at the Sixth Unit’s logistics troops.

Gu Xiaoxi would help the Information Department when she had time, solve some difficult problems, and when she had nothing to do, she would tease Xiao Xiao, infuriate it, and end up being chased by Xiao Xiao all over the yard and the hills.

Later, Gu Xiaoxi noticed that in just half a month’s time, Xiao Xiao had slimmed down.

It had successfully transformed from a lazy creature full of fat into a lean, fierce-looking hound with a commanding presence. However, its target of aggression was only Gu Xiaoxi.

During this period, Gu Xiaoxi went home once to study the Third Volume of Techniques carefully, and then practiced for three hours each night.

Every time she practiced, Xiao Xiao would lie under the tree staring at her with bared teeth, gnawing at a bone. As if the bone was Gu Xiaoxi itself!

Life seemed to freeze in this routine, and the days were very fulfilling.

Zhao Zilong and Shao Changfeng were not used to coming here at first, but over time, they established their own training schedules and, like Gu Xiaoxi, practiced their techniques every day.

Zhao Zilong’s Seventy-two Ultimate Skills also advanced with the relentless practice.

Shao Changfeng never stopped cultivating with Gu Xiaoxi.

In the blink of an eye, they had served a month in the Sixth Unit.

The selection for special forces was just three months away.

All three were making ample preparations.

That day, as usual, Gu Xiaoxi was chased back to the dormitory by Xiao Xiao.

Zhang Ling and Qi Yu were getting ready to sleep.

Yun Xiao had not returned yet.

Although curious about where she had gone, Gu Xiaoxi didn’t pay much attention to it.

However, Yun Xiao did not return for an entire night.

The next morning, Qi Yu immediately reported the situation to their squad leader.

In the end, after confirmation.

Yun Xiao didn’t request leave and went out for a run by herself in the morning, but she didn’t return for the entire day and night.

Facing her roommate’s disappearance, Gu Xiaoxi felt worried and very concerned.

This area spans hundreds of kilometers and is military territory, with dense forests. Generally, people are warned by superiors not to venture deep into the woods to avoid getting lost or encountering wild animals and facing danger.

There are a few who don’t listen and run everywhere, but they are a very small minority.

Such an incident had alarmed the company commander.

Eventually, some people were sent out to search for her, but they returned without success.

The delay lasted until the next day’s noon, marking thirty-six hours since Yun Xiao had gone missing.

Qi Yu and Zhang Ling didn’t have much fondness for Yun Xiao, but having lived together for more than half a year, they too were anxious about their comrade’s mysterious disappearance.

"I heard the company commander has already called for the military dog search and rescue team to help. Let’s also go out and look for her this afternoon! Being missing for so long, I’m afraid she might have encountered wild animals," Qi Yu said worriedly.

"Xiao Xi, I know you’re very capable, how about you lead us in the search?" Zhang Ling also said with a face full of urgency.

Gu Xiaoxi stood in front of Yun Xiao’s bed, looking at the neatly arranged bedding, indeed she had been missing for thirty-six hours.

If so many people sent out in the morning hadn’t found her, she must have run into danger somewhere.

"Like this, you two wait here for news. I’ll go out and look!" Gu Xiaoxi said, walked over to Yun Xiao’s bed, picked up the pillow she often slept with, and then left the room.

She called over Shao Changfeng and Zhao Zilong, and then the three of them headed to the small kennel together.

Zhao Zilong looked curiously at Gu Xiaoxi, wondering what she needed the pillow for!

Shao Changfeng just followed her. The military dog, Xiao Xiao, only showed hostility towards Gu Xiaoxi and treated them like strangers, barely acknowledging them with an aloofness that was anything but warm.

Gu Xiaoxi ran to the entrance of the kennel, looked at the lazy guy sprawled on the ground asleep, jumped directly onto the big iron gate, stood up high looking down at it, then threw the pillow in front of it and said casually, "If you can find this person, from now on I’ll let you be the boss!"

Shao Changfeng and Zhao Zilong couldn’t help but laugh out loud, Gu Xiaoxi was talking to a military dog.

Could it understand?

As expected, Xiao Xiao just cocked its head to one side, blinked its eyelids, and continued to sleep deeply.

Anyway, no matter how much force it gathered, it couldn’t keep up with Gu Xiaoxi.

Afterward, it got used to it. It couldn’t be bothered to chase anymore, exhausted to the point of vomiting blood after every chase, and then having to find its own food!

After being tricked for so long, Xiao Xiao finally had a change of heart. Revenge is a dish best served cold—it thought, ten years is not too late.

Once Gu Xiaoxi let her guard down around it, it planned to pounce on her directly...

Xiao Xiao’s actions caused Gu Xiaoxi to frown in annoyance!

Was it being unresponsive, or did it not understand? Gu Xiaoxi’s face turned cold...

Finally, she touched her chin, looking at Xiao Xiao, who couldn’t be bothered to even blink, and a glint of cunning flashed in her eyes.

"Not going, is that it? Just now, the company commander said, whoever finds the owner of this pillow will be rewarded with a pot of beef bone soup. It seems such matters can only benefit the search and rescue team’s dogs," said Gu Xiaoxi as she jumped down from the cage and then turned to walk away.

Her silhouette was indescribably free and easy.

"Woof!" Xiao Xiao barked from behind her.

And then it kept on barking incessantly!

Gu Xiaoxi’s thin lips curled up, and she turned back to look at Xiao Xiao, her eyes full of scheming laughter. Indeed, a foodie who couldn’t resist the temptation of delicious food.

It turned out to be quite spiritual and could understand human speech. Truly deserving of its pedigree as a military dog.

Gu Xiaoxi turned back, opened the door to the kennel.

Xiao Xiao sniffed the pillow and then started walking towards Gu Xiaoxi with a proud gait.

Both Shao Changfeng and Zhao Zilong were astonished and gave Gu Xiaoxi a thumbs up.

Shao Changfeng said in admiration, "It can actually understand your words. This guy, do you dare to keep it close to you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Xiao had already reached Gu Xiaoxi’s side and suddenly stretched its neck to bite her.

Shao Changfeng and Zhao Zilong were terrified, but then they saw Gu Xiaoxi dodge swiftly, avoiding its attack in the blink of an eye, leaving Xiao Xiao lunging at air.

Gu Xiaoxi would certainly always be on guard against it; after all, it was a vengeful animal and quite dangerous.

And Xiao Xiao, every time was the same. It never managed to bite Gu Xiaoxi, and as time passed, it became less aggressive.

Unperturbed by not biting Gu Xiaoxi, it remained quite composed.

Shao Changfeng and Zhao Zilong were speechless. Gu Xiaoxi had managed to bully a dog to this extent; she was indeed formidable.

They reflected that it wasn’t in vain that they too had been bullied by her.

The two men suddenly felt a sense of balance in their hearts. They looked at Xiao Xiao with a bit more sympathy.

Leading the way, Xiao Xiao went ahead, with Gu Xiaoxi following behind along with Zhao Zilong and Shao Changfeng. They continued through the company’s training grounds and headed deep into the mountains.
