Foreign vehicles were not allowed to enter. Even if it was Xia Jinyuan's car, it would not be allowed to enter the compound and would need to be parked elsewhere.
After the keys were passed to the sentinel, Ye Jian saw the sentinel starting the car. Without turning on the lights, he drove off into the darkness.
Without a sound, it disappeared in front of her eyes.
"These sentries also need to guard the chief. They are all selected elites from the unit." Xia Jinyuan saw that Ye Jian was shocked by the sentinels and smiled. "The training will last until the end of the year. If you're not afraid of hardships or fatigue, you can come over every night and I will arrange for people to pick you up."
Hearing that, Ye Jian's eyes immediately lit up brighter than the stars. "No! I'm not afraid of hardships or fatigue. The evening study session ends at 9 pm. I will reach the back door at 9.05 pm."
That was the bad thing about living in the dormitories. Everyone had to be at the evening study session and there was no free time at night.
"So interested? Let's go, Little Fox. The training is from 10 pm till midnight. I have to send you back to school by 1.10 am." Xia Jinyuan naturally held Ye Jian's hand and walked through the industrial park that was surrounded by scrap metal and towards the 'world' that Ye Jian was unfamiliar with.
He said that he would hold her hand and lead her to a path where they could go hand in hand together.
Then he would let go at an appropriate time so that she can have her own space to explore her world.
As long as he exists in that world of hers.
Ye Jian's mind had already been captivated by the mysterious training that was shrouded in darkness and secrets. She did not realize that she was being held by a steady and strong hand.
Even if it was dark, there was no fear, only belief when he held her hand.
After passing through two five-floor factories, Ye Jian felt a tremor when they were reaching the third one as if something was shaking underground.
There was no sound outside and no light inside… Besides the tremors underground, unless… there was a facility underground?
"That's right, as you have thought." She paused slightly and Xia Jinyuan could guess what she was thinking about. "The training is done underground. We can avoid disturbing people, and avoid their eyes. Most importantly, we do this to prevent any leaks."
Otherwise, why would the state spend so much on the military?
For a great country to be prosperous and safe, it must have a strong army!
A country could only be strong with a strong army. And civilians living in a strong country can stay away from the flames of war and keep their families safe.
"Major!" A strong, masculine voice came from the corner. Next, there was a flash of light and Ye Jian could see a soldier in training clothes standing in front of an abandoned staircase.
Xia Jinyuan squeezed Ye Jian's palm and whispered, "This is the entrance. Remember. You can come over alone during the day if you're free. The covert sentries won't appear in the day, you can come over anytime."
He laughed, "Not even a hobo would come here during the day. There's no houses or shops anywhere around. No one would come to a place without food or drinks."
It was impossible for young women to come here. If something happened to them, no one would know for a year.
