Chapter 3717: Crushing (Part Six)

Editor: Henyee Translations

Late at night, the Chinese students stood as straight as the rifles placed by their left legs. They were awe-inspiring and solemn, like pine trees standing on a cliff. Although they were facing the abyss, they were fearless. No matter how strong the wind was or how cold the snow was, it couldn’t crush their straight backs.

These were the Chinese soldiers! They stood unwavering.

At that moment, the entire venue was silent. Even the three generals of the arbitration committee were shocked by the aura of the Chinese students who were saluting the Chinese flag. The military soldiers stood upright and looked at the Chinese flag.

This scene was captured by the accompanying combat reporter. He took photos of the backs of the Chinese students. In front of the camera, the solemn flag that was as red as blood and filled with hope was also captured.

Later on, this photo became the most iconic battlefield photo. Even though there were only a dozen soldiers, it had the majestic aura of thousands of soldiers. From the photo, one could see the unyielding character of the Chinese soldiers and the dignity of a rising country.

The Japanese students completed the flag-raising ceremony later. The ceremony was not as solemn as the Chinese students’.

After the flag-raising ceremony for the two countries ended, the arbitration committee did not wait for a reply from Japan. The Chinese students were not surprised by this result at all.

Soon, a specialist jumped into the car and started pulling out the surveillance camera. In the car was Li Jinnian. Outside the car were Ye Jian, Zhang Minghong, Jiang Yang, and Li Xiang. The other students were nearby as well.

Maki Fujino and Fukumoto Lina, who were isolated, broke the silence as planned. They didn’t directly target China like the Korean students. Instead, they attempted suicide as they thought this was ‘unfair’ treatment.

Hirano Ling agreed to half of Maki Fujino’s plan, but he didn’t agree to destroy the surveillance camera. His reason for agreeing was very simple. He wanted to buy more time to think of a solution!

When Maki Fujino aimed the rifle in his hand at his abdomen and shouted that the Japanese were being treated unfairly, Ye Jian smiled coldly.

Previously, he and Fukumoto Lina were whispering to each other. It turned out that they were discussing putting on this show. Looking at the Japanese instructor’s relieved expression, the coldness at the corner of Ye Jian’s mouth deepened.

Fukumoto Lina did the same. He aimed the rifle at his abdomen and shouted with bloodshot eyes, “We’re suffering such humiliation just because of something we didn’t do intentionally! I’d rather commit suicide than bow down and apologize to the Chinese flag!”

“Put down the guns in your hands, do you hear me? Put down the guns in your hands!”

It had to be said that their move was really shocking. The three generals of the arbitration committee didn’t expect the Japanese students to be so ruthless. They would rather commit suicide than bow down and apologize to the Chinese flag. Could it be that their earlier action was… unintentional?

However, the referee and the soldiers told them with certainty that the two Japanese students in the car had heard their warnings, but they didn’t stop the car. They clearly did it on purpose…

Even so, now was not the time to think about whether the Japanese had done it intentionally or not. The most important thing now was to stop the crazy behavior of the Japanese students.

The guns in the hands of the soldiers were all aimed at the two Japanese students. It seemed that as long as the other party did anything dangerous, they would immediately raise their guns and shoot!
