Author's Note

It will be available at 12 AM, with 3 chapters released then, followed by another 2 chapters at 8 PM.

After that, the update schedule will be adjusted to 8 PM.

First, I want to thank everyone for reading and supporting me.

Having 2,200 people following my story has gotten me onto the Three Rivers list, and I'm very excited.

Thank you all.

This book has always adhered to the principle of "even the most outrageous characters in the book must have been encountered by the author." Perhaps it's due to my life experiences, but some readers find it relatable, while others think, "Damn, what is this idiot author writing?"

For example, back in the day, my finger... never mind, I won't complain. Life is full of unexpected encounters.

The situations are realistic, and I believe they have happened to countless firefighters.

Please bear with me if there are any parts that aren't written well.

The most common feedback is about the pacing and update schedule. I'm doing my best, and honestly, with this update volume, I have very little saved up.

I have a lot of internal monologue and unnecessary details. If I posted the original draft, you wouldn't be able to read it; I've deleted and revised over 30,000 characters.

I can only say that I'll do my best to update after it goes on sale.

With the launch at this time, the results are bound to not be very good. I just hope to do my best.

The editor also said, "What kind of garbage firefighting novel, nobody reads this, readers are inherently resistant to it."

Author: But I'm writing about the military, specifically urban military. It's less serious than typical military novels, with more elements and humor. Others write "Special Forces God of War," while I write "God of Cooking in the Mess Hall Squad."

Editor: Military is also niche. You should focus on writing your commercial novels. Your old book is rising fast and has a readership of ten thousand, while this book... judging by the data, you can see it's not attracting readers.

Indeed.

This time, we've reached the Three Rivers list, and my collection count only passed ten thousand today. This is much worse than my previous bestsellers, which would gain 15,000 collections with just one popular release. I'm a bit speechless.

However, for my last book, I only got contracted after 500,000 characters, went through one trial, and launched with 1,500 collections. My first-day subscription was over 40. I persevered and reached an average subscription of 4,000. I don't lack perseverance.

I must write well.

With this, my goal is ten thousand subscriptions as we set sail.

Tonight, can I borrow two thousand geese in flight to give me some face?

If you give me a miracle, I'll risk my life to write a unique military novel!

I won't look at the average subscription for now; please give me your support for the first-day subscription!
