Lin Hui and Shu Gang hurriedly ran towards the regiment meeting room.

Rushing footsteps echoed on the stairs.

Many people had gathered at the door of the conference room, all looking around curiously.

Seeing them coming, everyone immediately moved out of the way.

"Captain!"

"Captain!"

"..."

Lin Hui didn't say hello to anyone, and opened the door directly to go in.

But as soon as he put his hand on the door handle, he suddenly stopped again.

Everyone was watching him closely.

Lin Hui took a deep breath, then opened the door and walked in.

Shu Gang followed behind, waved his hand towards the back when he entered, and said in a low voice: "Go, go, go aside!"

After saying that, he closed the door with his backhand.

In the conference room, a woman looked pale and haggard.

The eye sockets are sunken and there are thick dark circles around the eyes.

Her hair hung down next to her chapped and white lips, and she sat there motionless, as if she had no consciousness.

Lin Hui walked up to her and called softly: "Sister?"

Wang Mei was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Lin Hui, with a sad smile on her face.

It was as if an inconspicuous little flower had bloomed on the dry and cracked land.

She stood up slowly, held Lin Hui's hand, and said in a hoarse voice: "Comrade Lin, I'm so glad to see you again."

Lin Hui also held her hand tightly and asked curiously: "Sister, how long has it been since you had a good rest? You must take care of yourself, otherwise how will you take care of the child?"

A wry smile appeared on Wang Mei's face: "No need to take care of him, Xiaoliang...has left."

Lin Hui and Shu Gang's heads buzzed for a moment.

Like being struck by lightning.

Lin Hui looked at her in shock: "Leaving?"

Wang Mei nodded: "He left the day before yesterday and was just buried today. I put his ashes together with his father's."

She forced out a pale smile with difficulty: "From now on, he will no longer have to complain about not being able to see his father. He can stay with his father all the time."

Lin Hui and Shu Gang looked at each other, feeling empty in their hearts for some reason.

Although they only have a relationship with the little boy.

But that day, the boy was their commander.

They will never forget this incident for the rest of their lives.

"Oh, right."

Wang Mei turned around and unzipped her backpack.

He took out a set of neatly folded and spotless military uniforms and held them in front of Lin Hui with both hands.

"This is what you left for him. Now that he is gone, it is time to return it to its original owner and return it to you."

Lin Hui looked at the military uniform in front of him, and then at the woman's sad face. He shook his head and slowly pushed it back: "Sister, please keep this suit well. This is the child's relic. Just treat it as a gift." Think about it.”

Wang Mei shook her head: "Tell me before the child leaves that you must return your clothes."

"He knew that day was all fake, but he was still very happy, and he was not sad because he was going to see his father soon."

"Comrade, take it, this is Xiaoliang's last wish."

The woman burst into tears and burst into tears.

Shu Gang turned his head sadly, as if his heart had been pinched hard and the pain was severe.

The hemp rope will be broken at all the thin spots, and bad luck will only seek out the poor.

Such a sensible child's life came to an end so early.

Whoever it was, would feel uncomfortable at this moment.

Lin Hui took the military uniform with a heavy heart and held it in his hand.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that the suit weighed dozens of kilograms, as if the little boy was lying peacefully between his arms.

"Can I really review the troops?"

"Uncle, I am also a soldier now!"

"Uncle of the People's Liberation Army, continue training, protect everyone, and catch more bad guys!"

"When I grow up, I will also be a soldier, and be as outstanding a soldier as my father! Be loyal to the motherland and serve the people!"

"Serve the people!"

"I also want to serve the people..."

The innocent smiling faces of children are reflected in my mind.

The way he raised his skinny little hand and saluted seriously was something Lin Hui would never forget in his life.

The boy has dreams in his heart and hope in his eyes.

But now, all these hopes and dreams have been sealed in airtight boxes and buried deep in the cold underground.

At this moment, Lin Hui's hands began to tremble inexplicably.

The uncomfortable emotions penetrated the whole body from the inside out.

Wang Mei wiped her tears, picked up her bag, and forced a smile at Lin Hui: "Comrade Lin, I'm leaving. Thank you very much for letting the child leave without any regrets. Thank you very much!"

"For the rest of my days, I will definitely pray and bless you every day."

"I wish you a long life, happiness and health, and never have to worry like me."

After saying that, she bent down deeply and bowed towards Lin Hui.

Lin Hui winked to the side, and Shu Gang quickly came up and helped him up: "Sister, sis, don't be like this, life must go on, and those who are alive must look forward..."

Wang Mei nodded with tears in her eyes, picked up her bag again, and walked out as if she had lost her soul.

She opened the door, and the soldiers outside took a step back.

Everyone looked at her blankly, feeling indescribable in their hearts.

Wang Mei looked at all the soldiers, no matter what age they were, their eyes were all red.

She didn't say anything, and didn't know what to say. She just bowed deeply to everyone.

At this moment, all the soldiers broke through their defenses.

Tears kept rolling in his eyes.

Everyone raised their right hands and saluted her.

Wang Mei's eyes were empty, as if she had lost everything. She walked numbly through the crowd with her bag and walked outside.

"Sister, wait a minute!"

Lin Hui suddenly turned around and chased him out of the conference room...
