Special District 9 Chapter 7: Meeting Platoon Commander Yuan

Even though Qin Yu had received quite a few benefits due to Matsushita’s case, his standing in the platoon didn’t change as a result of that.

Perhaps, it might even lead to him having to clean the dormitory and wash the clothes of others. This was not something that Qin Yu could accept.
