[Forwarded] Special Forces Queen, Arrives! (8)

Chapter Eight: The Phoenix Mansion's Young Lady――Feng\Die Wu\???? Noon sounds.\???? West River Moon Inn, second floor, the last room on the east side.\???? Inside the guest room, a thin layer of swirling steam filled the air, with a faint warm fragrance.\???? Through the bamboo-green hanging curtain, a beautiful woman's figure could be vaguely seen inside, with warm and smooth skin. Bathed in the mist, she looked like a stunningly exquisite, almost ethereal painting of a fairy emerging from the bath.\???? The interior was elegant and classically fragrant. On the bed with light gauze curtains surrounding it, there was a camouflage bag—it belonged to Tang Lin herself.\???? Next to the camouflage bag, a neatly folded set of green plaid casual clothes was placed.\???? Beside the bed, on a bench, there was a set of camouflage clothes and a camo hat, Tang Lin's change of clothes.\???? Not far from the bed, on the dining table, lay a sniper rifle, two silenced pistols, and a black leather belt. The black leather belt was wide with multiple compartments, all containing various chemical syringes and needles.\???? Close to the side of the bed, there was a bathing tub. Tang Lin's long black silky hair hung down in front of her, dipping into the warm water. Her original camouflaged face was completely altered; appearing in the air was a melon-seed-shaped face with willow-like eyebrows, captivating phoenix-like eyes, a high nose, and cherry-like lips… The features were delicate yet mature, perfectly harmonizing into a breathtaking face. However, at this moment, the expression on her face did not match its beauty.\???? Tang Lin leaned back against the edge of the bath, listlessly staring at the ceiling of the guest room, as if her soul had left her body. Her eyes were devoid of any life.\???? All this over an ordinary military drill? Did I really traverse?\???? “Ouch,” Tang Lin wailed in frustration, “the game is really serious now. What should I do? My beloved troops, my dear comrades, Tang Lin has left the squad, do you know that?”\???? After brooding for a while, Tang Lin gathered her energy. “As a soldier, one cannot be defeated in a strange environment. Tang Lin, keep going!” She grabbed a towel and got up.\???? The Phoenix Mansion.\???? A melodious sound of a zither came from the back garden of the Phoenix Mansion, passing through the walls and attracting many birds.Birds perched on the peach branches in the back garden, gazing at the figure in pink by the guqin under the tree. A pigeon flew in from outside the back garden wall and finally landed on the guqin's head, unwilling to leave. Phoenix Butterfly Dance's calm gaze fell on the little feet of the pigeon, and upon seeing the note tied to the pigeon's foot, she immediately stopped her slender, elongated fingers from playing the guqin. A maid came forward, knelt on the ground, took the pigeon in her hands, removed the note tied to its foot, and then handed the note to Phoenix Butterfly Dance, saying, “Miss.” Phoenix Butterfly Dance took a deep breath, her slightly trembling hand reached out, and took the note from the maid. The maid withdrew her hand and quietly gazed at Phoenix Butterfly Dance. Phoenix Butterfly Dance had a face beautiful enough to sink fish and make wild geese fall, with delicate, graceful features, painted-like eyebrows and eyes, red lips, and white teeth. The quiet aura around her added a scholarly charm. After a moment of struggle, Phoenix Butterfly Dance finally mustered the courage to open the note, holding her breath as she scanned the words… In the end, her brow relaxed, a smile lifted the corners of her mouth, and she exhaled a light, orchid-like breath of relief. Looking at the note, she gratefully said, “Thank you for giving me this opportunity!” The maid, petite and delicate, asked, “Miss, why are you so happy?” Phoenix Butterfly Dance just blushed with a shy smile, revealing nothing to the maid. Xijiangyue Inn. Tang Lin had changed into the green checkered military training uniform she usually wore in the army, and put on a brimless hat, her clean, fresh, and spirited face fully showing. She stood before the dim mirror and performed a military salute, then took a few copper coins and left the room. Soon, Tang Lin walked down from the second floor, passed the counter, and under the amazed gaze of the old innkeeper, she stepped out of the inn and into the busy, bustling street, where opposite her stood the stall of the old strong man who had given her a piece of broken silver yesterday. But now, the old strong man was in trouble, being targeted by a local tyrant.
