Chapter 138 - Birthday

Her birthday… It was also the day her biological mother passed away. Was she feeling sad?

In his mind, she was always optimistic and smiling sweetly. His girl was so strong that she would not be sad.

Besides, she had said before that she had no impression of her birth mother. She only regarded her adoptive parents in her hometown as her real parents.

"Hey, about that boy 010... it seems that he will be able to make it to the end!" 023 said while he and 015, who had been mistreated by Lu Beixiao, stood downstream.

They had observed Lu Beixiao's performance over the past two months. More and more trainees had become his supporters over time.

"023, do you want to follow him too? If so, why don't you head over there and be his lackey!" 015 was angry. He kicked 023 while he was talking. However, as he lifted his foot, he lost his balance, and the current immediately took him down.

"Oh, sh*t!" 015 cursed. His body flowed along with the raging torrent. 023 managed to stabilize himself and did not fall.

"You stew in your juice!" 023 teased him.

"Oh! 015 is acting foolishly again!" 032, who was next to Lu Beixiao, said gleefully.

However, Lu Beixiao did not seem to hear him. He remained motionless while standing in the river bed.

"Help! Help! Help me!" 015 yelled for help from downstream.

"This guy deserves it! He is going to drown!"

"There's a crocodile! Help me!" 015 cried for help again.

There was a crocodile. This could be serious! 032, who was initially gloating, looked at Lu Beixiao seriously.

"010, should we save him?" If they saved him, it was too much of a favor for him; if they did not, they would be punished due to the lack of team spirit.

Suddenly, Lu Beixiao then threw his gun toward 032 without saying anything. He then dived into the river and swam downstream. The water downstream where 015 was struggling was shallow. Meanwhile, a big crocodile that was almost as long as Lu Beixiao's height opened its mouth and bit most of his leg.

The crocodile's teeth were as sharp as a saw. Pretty soon, it could bite off 015's leg and swallow it.

015 looked at Lu Beixiao and begged him. "Please! Help me! Help me!"

Lu Beixiao, who was completely drenched, bent over and drew a sharp blade from the side of his leather boots. At that moment, the crocodile was still biting firmly on its prey without any intention of letting go.

Lu Beixiao held a sharp long knife in his right hand and stabbed the crocodile's back with brute force several times. Suddenly, blood splattered everywhere, and the water was stained red by the crocodile's blood. While being attacked, the crocodile bit on 015's leg even harder. 015 was obviously screaming in pain.

Lu Beixiao gritted his teeth. The crocodile's skin was very thick and hard, so his previous attempts at getting the crocodile to move away proved unsuccessful. He then stabbed it a few times again with all his strength. Finally, the crocodile let go of his leg.

015 let out a sigh of relief when he saw that his leg was still there. Tears flowed down his face. "Thank you…"

He thanked Lu Beixiao sincerely. The man almost lost a leg!

Lu Beixiao, whose face was stained with blood, did not seem very pleased. He still held a grudge. "I saved you because I don't want to be eliminated!"

He walked onto the riverbank while holding the knife, which was full of blood after he finished speaking. Only then had the rescue team arrived.

"Oh! Stupid! You killed a wild animal!" Instructor Will came over, indicating that the lives of the students were not as important as the crocodile!

"You two idiots, go and bring the crocodile up! That would be your snack today!" Instructor Will spoke again.

"Wow! We finally have meat for our meal!" 032 said excitedly.

Instructor Will smiled sinisterly. On the other hand, Lu Beixiao was smart enough to know that there would be no such good things!

Ye Qiao was stunned. Her father, who was always busy, came to school and took her out for dinner.

"Qiao Qiao, today is your birthday. I wish you a happy birthday!" Ye Shengxun looked at his daughter, who was sitting opposite him, and smiled.

"Mayor Ye, today is also my birth mother's death day.." Ye Qiao said calmly without any expression.
