Chapter 48: Extra Stuff

In the dormitory, not only were Wang Ye and Qin Li whispering to each other, but there were also a few honest recruits lying next to each other. Even Ye Sanshi had noticed it. Some people couldn’t even keep their voices low, so he overheard them, but he didn’t care. The noise outside was getting louder, which was the reason he was unfazed.
...After the roll call ended, some class monitors chose not to hold the class meeting or postponed it. It was now free time for everyone to wash up. However, they wouldn’t receive the same treatment as yesterday. The class monitor would only provide hot water for washing their feet. Today’s training had made everyone realize that yesterday’s momentary happiness would require a long time to make up for. It was like a man who enjoyed a few minutes of fun but had to pay the price of hard labor for days or even months. The thought of enduring punishment for such a long time made them shiver.
Under the bucket, Deng Hai was constantly coughing. His figure, which was standing with the bucket on his head, was gradually bending lower. Deng Hai’s coughing continued as he smoked his fourth cigarette.
Ye Sanshi showed no mercy and commented, “Man up and take the punishment seriously. Why’re you bending over and allowing the smoke to escape from the bucket?”
Suddenly, Deng Hai straightened up, and the coughing ceased. Time passed, and the noise outside gradually died down. Wang Ye, who still had his watch on his wrist, discreetly checked the time and saw that it was 10:23, twenty minutes earlier than expected. However, Ye Sanshi remained silent, and Wang Ye couldn’t remind him. He noticed the cigarette box in Deng Hai’s left hand and observed as Deng Hai’s other hand reached out from the bucket. Deng Hai took out the last cigarette and clenched his left hand tightly, causing the cigarette box to flatten. He took the last cigarette into the bucket, and the coughing resumed.
Alongside the coughing, there was now a pool of saliva and tears under Deng Hai’s feet. Ye Sanshi, showing indifference, handed Deng Hai a cup of water and said, “Come on, drink some water!” Deng Hai, wiping his face with his sleeve, accepted the cup with gratitude, but his forced smile froze when he saw something strange in the yellowish water. It seemed to be some black ash. Not having witnessed Ye Sanshi’s actions or heard the whispers of Class Five, Deng Hai wondered about the contents of the water.
With a hint of sarcasm, Ye Sanshi responded to Deng Hai’s confusion, “The last cigarette made you a cup of tea… 1 took a few puffs and dropped some ashes. You don’t mind, right?” Deng Hai’s face contorted, feeling the urge to smash the stainless steel cup on Ye Sanshi’s face. However, he thought about what the instructor had said, his girlfriend, and his parents, causing him to resist the impulse. After wiping his face again, Deng Hai mustered the determination to drink the water, despite its repulsive appearance. He asked Ye Sanshi if he would let him go after drinking it.
…..
Ye Sanshi brushed off Deng Hai’s question, assuring him, “What are you talking about? You smoked so much that I helped moisten your throat. Of course, after you’re done, you can go wash up and get ready to sleep!” Deng Hai reluctantly accepted the response, mustering the courage to drink the water. After taking a big gulp, Deng Hai suddenly spat the water back into the bucket in front of Ye Sanshi, surprising everyone in the room. He then held the bucket tightly, squattingdown and vomiting uncontrollably.
Witnessing Deng Hai’s misery, the recruits in Class Five frowned and averted their eyes. Even Wang Ye couldn’t bear to see Deng Hai in such a state. Many of the recruits wondered why such extreme measures were necessary. Couldn’t Deng Hai have simply asked for a cigarette? Did he really deserve such punishment? Nevertheless, Ye Sanshi, noticing the expressions of his classmates, calmly addressed the issue. He acknowledged that Deng Hai wasn’t the only smoker in their class and suspected that others were hiding cigarettes as well.
Ye Sanshi made a bold statement, “If you want to smoke in the future, just tell me directly. You will have to go through the same process Deng Hai just experienced. Every time he walks, he will smoke a cigarette. And of course, you will have to buy your own pack of cigarettes next time!” After a moment of silence, Ye Sanshi added, “Alright, there are still a few minutes left before lights out. You can go to the toilet or wash up. But remember, there’s no hot water today. Don’t expect me to get it for you. Go to the washroom where you cleaned up this morning and use cold water.”
No one knew if Ye Sanshi was being truthful, but they had no choice but to accept his words reluctantly. Thankfully, the weather wasn’t too cold, and even though it was late at night, the temperature remained above ten degrees. Taking a cold bath should be tolerable for those with a strong physique. Wang Ye, feeling the need to clean himself, had confidence in enduring the cold water. However, before anyone could confirm their thoughts, Ye Sanshi added, “You’re not allowed to shower today. The lights are about to go out, and I don’t have time for that..”
