On the other side, Shen Zhaozhao and the three others timed their arrival to the drill field for assembly.
The instructor had already arrived, glanced at the time, and called out to those below, "Communications officer?"
At that moment, Shen Zhaozhao had completely forgotten she was the communications officer. Seeing her dormmates all looking at her, she belatedly realized and promptly shouted, "Here!"
The instructor looked towards her and handed her a roster, "Call the roll and see who's missing."
"Got it!"
Shen Zhaozhao ran to the front of the formation and began calling names from the roster.
Two minutes later, Shen Zhaozhao held the roster and reported, "Instructor, 31 expected, 31 present."
"Good, fall back in line!"
Shen Zhaozhao placed the roster aside and returned to the formation.
"Now that everyone is here, let's begin! Everyone present, look left, look right..."
