Chapter 159 Shocking Peach Rabbit for a Whole Year
This year's graduation practical examination ended in an almost absurd scene.
In the early morning light, Nuo Xia walked out of the forest. The python skin he carried on his shoulders bulged high, like a mountain peak, and he placed it in front of Zefa with a "thump".
The whole ground shook violently.
The corners of Dr. Ent's eyes also twitched.
Behind Nuo Xia were many frustrated generals and brigadiers, as well as a large number of recruits who had not been able to recover from the shock for a long time.
"The total number of chips is one thousand two hundred and thirty yuan, and the accumulated points are thirty-seven thousand five hundred!"
This is the final number, which is a full 10,000 higher than the points of all other recruits combined.
An unprecedented achievement.
After a while of discussion, an examiner stood up and announced on the spot that Nuo Xia won the first place in this graduation assessment, while the detailed rankings of the others will be announced after the warship returns to the headquarters, after evaluation and analysis.
Declaring first place in advance is actually inconsistent with the procedures and rules of graduation assessments in previous years. If it had been anyone else, the prospective graduates would have already started to protest.
But since it’s Nuo Xia…
Obviously, no one can have any objection to questioning.
…………
Six days later.
Naval Headquarters, Marinevando.
Nuo Xia, who had just gotten off the warship and not long after leaving the dock, received a notice from his superiors, saying that his graduation examination had been officially determined to be passed, and that the awarding ceremony would be held officially two days later.
The ceremony for the investiture of hundreds of elites from the headquarters was naturally not going anywhere.
It is said that there are at least several thousand people coming to watch the ceremony, and many high-level bosses will also attend as long as they can spare the time.
"This is graduation..."
On the boulevard of the headquarters, Shiliu held a cigar in his mouth, looked up at the blue sky and sighed slightly, "If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would still be in the elite camp, training for at least a year and a half."
"It's like you graduated early because of me."
Next to him, Nuo Xia was holding a large pile of letters and was opening them while walking. Hearing this, he rolled his eyes and said, "Isn't it for your little sister, the medical soldier of the G6 branch?"
"Everyone should have half." Xiliu blushed, glanced at the pile of letters in his arms, and wondered, "Why are so many letters sent to you?"
"Ang." Nuo Xia sighed helplessly, "It's probably the aftermath of the last time I published it in the newspaper. I haven't read it for a long time, and it's all piled up. The old man who was looking after the letters really couldn't bear it. He came to me today and asked me to put it in.
All these letters have been removed."
"...At least three or four thousand." Xiliu didn't know whether to be envious or gloating, "How long do you have to open it?"
"Too lazy to dismantle it."
Nuo Xia threw the opened envelope in his hand back into the hill, rubbed his brows, and felt a little tired, "I just flipped through some, and the things written are almost the same. I can probably guess what the contents are without reading the rest.
"
They were basically letters from girls from all over the world expressing their admiration for him, and most of the letter paper used was pink.
certainly.
There were also a very few purple ones, which Nuo Xia stayed away from, not even thinking of taking them apart.
"Speaking of which, do you have any expectations for this investiture ceremony?" Nuo Xia turned to ask Xi Liu, "Colonel? Or Brigadier General?"
"I don't want to think about it anymore, Brigadier."
Shiliu exhaled a puff of smoke, shook his head and said, "If you graduate normally, it won't be a big problem. Now that it's more than a year ahead of schedule, I guess you will be a colonel at most. What about you?"
"I want to be directly awarded the rank of lieutenant general."
Nuo Xia looked at the seagulls passing by in the sky, with a melancholy look on his face, "But after all, there is no precedent for this, so it still feels unlikely. I guess he is just a major general..."
Isn’t this enough? You are only nineteen years old, you bastard!
Xi Liu was speechless for a while. The major general was almost half-stepped into the ranks of the senior leaders of the headquarters. How many people could not reach this level in their lifetime.
"You don't understand."
Nuo Xia sighed quietly. It actually didn't matter to him whether he started as a lieutenant general or a major general. The main thing was that he was still entangled in the agreement he made with Taotu in the hospital.
If he were a major general, he would have to take the initiative to express his love to the proud little rabbit in public.
And in that case, completing the side missions can only be moved back...

After parting ways with Xiliu, Nuo Xia went straight to the elite camp, found instructor Brandon, and asked him for a spare small attic to store the letters he sent.
After all, it was someone else's intention and he couldn't just throw it away.
Under Brandon's envious eyes, before he could even walk out of the training ground, the miniature phone bug he had just equipped in his arms made a "bulu bulu" sound.
When I answered the phone, the voice on the other end was Shia's voice from far away in the New World.
"Your brother Wang passed away?" Nuo Xia was slightly startled.
"Yeah, I left the night before yesterday."
The girl's tone was very low, as if she had just come out of grief, "Noxia, I have to stay to attend my eldest brother's funeral, and I won't be able to catch up with your investiture ceremony..."
"..."
Nuo Xia didn't know how to explain this, so she could only comfort Shia and let her have a good rest. He also said that when the time comes, more photos of the ceremony would be taken and sent to her.
After more than ten minutes of coaxing, the girl finally managed to calm down.
After hanging up the phone with Xia, Nuo Xia shook his head slightly and sighed.
It was indeed a pity that Shia was not able to witness the scene where he was awarded the title in person, but from another perspective, it seemed to be a good thing.
It's one thing to know about the existence of another woman in the harem, but it's another thing to see him confess his love to another woman in person...

That night, Zhizi's home.
Under Zhizi's smiling gaze, Nuo Xia took off the recruit uniform that had been with him for more than a year, and took the suit just delivered from Tina's hand.
Now that they have graduated, it is obviously inappropriate to look like an ordinary soldier.
According to the practice within the navy, once you reach the rank of lieutenant or above, there are no such strict restrictions on uniforms, and you are eligible to wear various casual clothes according to your own habits.
As for the generals of the headquarters, they usually wear a suit underneath and a white cloak of justice on the outside.
Originally, the boss actually sent two suits to Nuo Xia, one was a lavender striped suit, and the other was a yellow and brown suit, the same style as Kizaru.
He is still handsome, but Nuo Xia feels that these two outfits are a bit too old-fashioned after all, and it is easy for them to clash with the rest of the generals in the headquarters.
So he simply made a special trip to the tailor shop, used his advanced painting skills to accurately put forward his design requirements, and asked the shop owner to tailor a suit for him.
What he has changed into now is this one.
A Roman-style suit jacket, as white as seagull wings, with narrow lapels, high buckles, and a close-fitting hem.
Inside is a pure black lapel shirt, ironed straight, and a light silver-gray tie.
After putting these on, he took the navy's white cloak of justice from Zhizi's hand and put it on his back.
Tina was stunned beside her, while Zhizi was holding her chin in thought. Suddenly she took out some hairdressing tools from behind the sofa and stepped forward:
"Not even close."
Nuo Xia lowered his head slightly and let the old lady trim the top of his head. After a moment, he heard Zhizi smile and say "Okay", then he raised his head again and looked at the mirror seriously.
The young man in the mirror has black hair and black eyes, a tall and slender figure, and a handsome appearance. He looks clean and fresh.
The new, slightly trimmed hairstyle, combined with the black and white suit, also made the childishness of his youth fade away a lot, giving him the majesty and momentum of a superior person.
Nuo Xia himself was slightly in a daze.
simply……
"You can just drag him in for a photo shoot and become the spokesperson for our navy's recruitment." Zhizi said with a smile, and his idea coincided with Nuo Xia's.
On the side, Little Tina turned left and right around Nuo Xia, and looked again. Her starry eyes were already filled with stars like those of a girl seeing her idol, and she couldn't help but exclaimed "Wow".
"Will I have to bear this burden from now on?"
Nuo Xia took a deep breath, tightened his tie, looked away from the mirror, and said with a smile, "I always feel that wearing clothes will become a troublesome thing in the future. Besides, this is the first time I wear a suit, and it's really a bit uncomfortable...
…”
Ding dong.
The doorbell suddenly rang, interrupting the second half of his sentence.
"I'll open the door."
Without Zhizi's reminder, Tina immediately ran straight to the door, but unfortunately, there was "someone" who was a step faster than her.
Dingchun, who was taking a nap in the entrance hall, lazily stretched out his paws and unlocked the door the moment the doorbell rang.
"Good evening, Sister Zhizi!"
Peach Rabbit's graceful figure appeared at the door. She was carrying a bag of gifts in her hand. While changing her shoes, she walked around Dingchun and said with a smile, "Have you had dinner? I just made some desserts. How about that?"
I couldn’t finish the food, so I thought of sending it to..."
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly noticed the figure in front of the mirror with her back to herself.
At this time, Nuo Xia also happened to turn around, put down the hand holding his tie, and nodded slightly at her with a smile:
"Good evening, Brigadier."
Snap.
The gift bag in his hand suddenly fell to the ground. Taotu looked at the handsome and picturesque young man in front of him and stayed where he was.
