The officer donned a trench coat that reached down to his ankles. The coat was spotless, devoid of any rank insignia or badges that indicated identity, except for the lone Armed Train emblem on the shoulder. Only internal train personnel could discern intricate stripe variations on the head badge, identifying it as a major's rank.
"Have you decided?"
Xiaoba asked.
Lin Jin looked calm, "If I stay here, I would never be able to keep up with the train conductor's pace."
Xiaoba said nothing more, simply waiting for Lin Jin to finish getting ready.
The latter didn't carry any equipment, even the emblem of identity, the Ming Lion, was left on the weapon rack in the combat readiness room. Nonetheless, he spent quite a while adjusting his trench coat, with Xiaoba patiently waiting.
Once they were ready, the two headed to the train head.
Beneath the train head command platform, a makeshift combat command room had been sectioned off.
