I planned to stay in the army for a few more days, explain things to my comrades in arms, and then slowly pack up and go back.

But because of Chu Chen's phone call just now, and Feng Qi who kept urging her ears in a voice that was better than Xianglin's sister-in-law, Xu Yuan sorted out the luggage that he didn't have much at all. Feng Qi left the dormitory.

"Where's your luggage?" Xu Yuan cast a sidelong glance at Feng Qi, and said, "I've been rambling here for a long time, and I haven't dealt with my own affairs well."

"Money is enough, what kind of luggage do you want!" Feng Qi said indifferently: "And it has been used for more than half a year, just throw it away."

Xu Yuan: "..."

Damn rich people.

Feng Qi: "As soon as you said it, I remembered that the frost blade is old and should be replaced."

Xu Yuan: "..."

Really. Changing mechas is like changing clothes, throw them away when they get old.

"What's a good name for the new mech? Luoshen? Nishang? Pianhong? Huangyuan? Ah no, Huangyuan seems to have been used... How about Sword God? It fits my image."

"Frost Blade."

"Isn't Frost Blade your name? I'm using Frost Blade now!" Feng Qi protested, "Did you listen to me?"

Xu Yuan said impatiently: "That's all. It suits the image you pretend to be outside. Handsome, cool and charming. And the neon clothes... Are you dancing when you are fighting?"

"Handsome..." Feng Qi rolled her eyes twice and said, "Really?"

Xu Yuan nodded copingly, and quickened his pace to throw the nagging Feng Qi behind.

After turning a corner, I suddenly saw dense crowds of people in the hall ahead.At a glance, they were all ordinary people.Taking a closer look, I found that everyone looked sad, their eyes were red, and the sound of sobbing came from every corner.

Realizing the identities of these people in an instant, Xu Yuan's pupils shrank slightly, and he sucked in a breath of cold air, his body stuck in place, unable to move at all.

"What's wrong? Didn't run away?"

Seeing Xu Yuan's footsteps suddenly stagnate, Feng Qi who came after him ran up behind Xu Yuan and gave him a hammer. Seeing that Xu Yuan didn't respond, she stretched her neck and followed Xu Yuan's line of sight curiously.

"What are you looking at, so serious."

Without warning, her eyes caught the scene in front of her, and the smile on the corner of Feng Qi's mouth froze unknowingly.After a long silence, he looked sideways at his partner.

Under the heavy expression, there was an indescribable sadness in his eyes.

"..."

After thinking about it, she raised her right arm and patted Xu Yuan's back. Feng Qi said, "Don't think about it, that's how war is. At least we're still alive."

"They are all family members of soldiers who died in battle."

"Of course. Otherwise, they wouldn't be allowed to enter this place. At least it's inside the military base." Feng Qi gently pushed Xu Yuan, and said, "Don't look, let's go."

"Maybe there are family members of people we know, I think..."

"What are you thinking? Going to them at this time will have no effect except to make them feel more uncomfortable." Feng Qi said: "Maybe people will resent you and say, 'Why are you still alive and my child is dead' , I am used to it. Moreover, compared to them, we are the ones who need comfort more, after all, every time we go out to perform a mission, we may die in an instant. No one is worried and no one knows."

Xu Yuan lowered his head and pursed his lips.

"Look at your expression, look left and look regretful, as if you blame yourself for someone's death - don't think about it!" Feng Qi deliberately said loudly in a nonchalant voice: "I know what you are thinking, no Necessary. A person's power is limited, no matter how hard he tries, he can't save everyone. Compared with the lives of these few people, how to find a way to survive the assessment after 20 years is the most important thing. At that time, everyone on the earth will die—that’s why we came to serve as soldiers! Aren’t we already ready to die for our country? Those who died must have voluntarily participated in the battle with this idea in mind. "

"They are dead, not even a single ashes are left." Xu Yuan couldn't listen to Feng Qi's so-called "comforting words", and said in a low voice: "With all kinds of emotions, I have lived seriously for dozens of years, laughing and cursing. years, but in the end there was only one name, one place of death, and the cause of death... A person who was alive and well before leaving, turned into two or three lines of text on a piece of cold paper. You said that relatives saw What a shame."

"Think about the bright side." Feng Qi said: "Thirty-five thousand people set off to go outside the Milky Way, and more than ten thousand and eighty thousand people came back. Isn't this a good thing?"

"There are only more than 8000 people left!!" Xu Yuan suddenly became excited, clenched his hands into fists, stared at Feng Qi, his eyes were red: "There are only so many left!!"

"What are you and I in a hurry for?"

"If it wasn't for Yan Che's order, those 3000 people wouldn't have died in the end!" If it wasn't for the fact that there were people around, Xu Yuan would have yelled at Feng Qi directly.Desperately lowering his voice, Xu Yuan scolded Feng Qi angrily in a low voice: "Just for that piece of data, just a piece of data!!"

Feng Qi scratched her hair helplessly, and said, "...Isn't it because that piece of data is useful?"

"But did you see Yan Che's attitude at that time? What did he think of people!" Xu Yuan's eyes widened, but he still couldn't understand the retort and asked: "'I want to test the power of that weapon, there are less than 5000 people The result can be calculated by the strength of the troops'——is this what people say? Is this what people can say?!"

Feng Qi: "..."

"He is too terrifying, he can exchange human life for a piece of data without any obstacles." Xu Yuan said angrily: "I really regret how I know such a guy!"

"..." Feng Qi was helpless.He looked at Xu Yuan's bloodshot eyes and said, "Okay, stop talking."

Xu Yuan angrily punched the wall next to him.His breathing was heavy, his forehead and neck were covered with blue veins, and he couldn't restrain himself because of his agitation.

"Without Yan Che, today more than 8000 people, including you and me, have all turned into dust and disappeared into the starry sky. How can we stand on this land alive again to meet our family and friends?" Feng Qi said: "You can't erase all the credit just because someone didn't do one thing well."

"But I just can't accept his attitude of not taking human life seriously." Xu Yuan's tone was dull, as if the voice came from the abdominal cavity, full of dissatisfaction: "I used to think that he was just a bit colder at most. It would be nice to communicate more. But after getting along for half a year, I think I know him well enough. He is such a person, he can't produce a little bit of humanity in his heart, there is nothing he can do!"

"..."

Seeing Xu Yuan say this about Yan Che, Feng Qi hesitated for a moment, and said, "Actually..."

"..."

After a long pause, Fengqi didn't have any follow-up, as if her voice was stuck in her throat and couldn't get out, there was no follow-up for a long time.Xu Yuan couldn't help but said, "Speak up if you have something to say!"

"..."

Feng Qi glanced at Xu Yuan with a complicated expression, and after thinking for a long time, she sighed and said, "Forget it, let's not talk about it. You are too sentimental, you might do something after hearing it."

"Where am I—"

"You just need to know that Yan Che is not the kind of person you imagine who doesn't value life and uses his power to do things wrong. He is good enough now, even if there is something that you really don't like, you should try your best." Forgive him, there is nothing he can do."

Xu Yuan frowned: "What does this mean—"

Feng Qi didn't explain: "Is this the reason for your argument with Yan Che at the door just now? You said he was inhuman in front of him?"

"...No, that's not true." Even if Xu Yuan was dissatisfied, he couldn't say such exaggerated words in front of others, and said, "Why do you ask this?"

"It feels like he's special to you."

If Xu Yuan was really asked to say that in front of Yan Che, Yan Che would definitely feel sad.

...No, maybe I can't even feel that.Feng Qi looked at Xu Yuan with complicated eyes, and said, "Maybe it's because you are such a nosy character that he cares about you. Although you said he was cold-blooded and ruthless, I think he treats you very generously." ——I heard that before he transferred you as an adjutant to stay with him, he didn’t even entrust you with any more dangerous work. If you and Yan Che hadn’t argued with Yan Che later on the fleet, I really didn’t know he would You handed over the work that should be given to you to others—but you are stupid enough to quarrel with Yan Che knowing that the task is death work."

"Don't talk about it, it's annoying." Xu Yuan frowned and said, "Yan Che told me personally that if I go, the survival rate is 30.00% 3000, but that school officer is doomed to die. If this is the case, why choose him not Choose me. I just can’t understand how he can easily say the words to let others die again and again. I——” At this point, Xu Yuan only felt that his breath was stuck in his chest, and he was so stuffy: "Because of his behavior, people in the army have questioned him more than once when he was in outer space. The death of more than [-] people is also the same. If I hadn't tried my best to suppress the news, the army commanders would have rushed into the headquarters. Li came to trouble him, can he still stand here like he is now."

"So, aren't you very partial to him?" Feng Qi said: "While saying that you can't agree with him, you also try your best to protect him. If you really step on your bottom line, you will definitely not have this attitude."

"..." Xu Yuan frowned: "Anyway, I just don't like his attitude of not treating people as human beings. It seems that in his eyes we are just a mass of data, a piece of meat produced in batches. As long as the task is completed, the It doesn’t make any difference to him whether more soldiers die or fewer.

"Careful for the lives of soldiers, can a commander who cannot issue slightly more dangerous orders continue to work in this line of work?" Feng Qi intentionally misinterpreted what Xu Yuan wanted to express, saying: "For the army, Such an absolutely rational and emotionless commander is the most trustworthy. There is no deviation in the order given, and the decisions made can definitely produce positive benefits. Even if the soldiers die, it is worth dying. Change it to something else Commander, can you guarantee that every decision he makes is correct and that all the people who died deserved their death? Impossible. So don't be so harsh on Yan Che, he can't do anything about this kind of thing."

Xu Yuan noticed something was wrong, and looked back and forth on Feng Qi's face with probing eyes: "...I said, why are you talking for him like that."

"Is there? No! Where is it? No, no."

Fearing that Xu Yuan would find it wrong to continue talking, Feng Qi unilaterally and violently ended the conversation, and dragged Xu Yuan's arm towards the gate of the base.

Xu Yuan had no choice but to lift the package on his shoulders, and followed Feng Qi towards the exit.

The closer to the exit, the more obvious the noise of people outside the base.

He took out his military officer card and showed it to the guard at the door. When he raised his head, Xu Yuan noticed that the other party seemed to be in a wrong state.

The shoulders of the straight waist trembled slightly, the throat moved up and down, and there were faint sobbing and choking sounds from the mouth.

Xu Yuan couldn't help but asked with concern: "What's the matter with you? Is there something wrong?"

After the soldier checked the documents of the two, he gave a military salute.Putting down his arms, wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeves, and took away a trace of wetness. He tried his best to restrain his emotions, sniffled his nose and said seriously, "Thank you, sir, for your concern! I'm fine!"

Feng Qi looked left and right, her eyes quickly locked on to the target, and she suddenly realized.Pulling Xu Yuan's sleeve, he pointed to the same excited expression not far away, looking straight at the two middle-aged men, a man and a woman, and said, "It's his family."

Xu Yuan's eyes moved slightly, and He Fengqi asked softly, "Can you..."

"Thank you, sir! No need!" The soldier guessed Xu Yuan's plan, sniffed, and replied loudly in the abdominal voice that he usually used when accepting orders from superiors: "My task Stay here, you can't leave before the time is up!"

After saying these words, Xu Yuan saw with his own eyes that the two people outside the door suddenly choked up and sobbed in unison.Covering his mouth with tears streaming down his eyes, he stood outside the door holding onto the railing with his palms while crying, leaning against the door and leaning towards the soldier, nodding repeatedly and saying, "It's all right, mom and dad are all right, work hard , we'll be right here waiting for you."I don't know whether I am comforting the soldier or comforting myself.

Xu Yuan was in a complicated mood, put away his military ID card and put it back in his pocket, picked up his luggage and walked towards the door.

After thinking for a while, he suddenly retracted his feet, turned around and looked at the soldier, with tears gushing out of his eyes like a fountain.With a comforting smile, he patted the other person on the shoulder, picked up his backpack and strode out the door again.

Outside the door, the joyful scene came into view, and the atmosphere was warm and joyful.Groups of people surrounded a soldier in military uniform, or held hands, talked, or embraced with tears, as if everyone had obtained a treasure that they cherished, as if they had endless concerns in their hearts.

Under the bright sunshine, cheers, laughter, flowers, gifts, it seems that this is the happiest place in the world.All wishes are fulfilled and all joys are released.

Just standing on the sidelines and watching them gave people the urge to cry with them, laugh and be touched.

Xu Yuan smiled and sighed uncomfortably.

This situation is completely different from the atmosphere in the base, those people with earthy faces, gray eyes, bereaved relatives, and can only silently wait for the death claim notice.

Feng Qi vigilantly scouted the surroundings back and forth, leaned sideways and hid behind Xu Yuan, poked her head out and whispered to Xu Yuan: "Don't worry about it, quickly turn on the system and enter your home address, call a car to come over—— Damn! I saw someone sent by my mother, hurry up! Move quickly! Don’t be so slow!!!”

Xu Yuan: "..."

Can it still make people feel good!

I couldn't help muttering: "Isn't it just a blind date, just go. It's really..."

"I don't want to enter the cemetery of marriage so early!"

"Ah." Xu Yuan made a short sound.

"What are you doing? Hurry up!!" Feng Qi urged.

"I gave all my money to my brother, and there is no penny in the account." Xu Yuan said embarrassedly.

"You're sick, why give it all to him!" Feng Qi said with wide-eyed eyes.

"Isn't it because I don't know if I can come back? What's the use of keeping the money." Xu Yuan said, "I called him and asked him to transfer some money to me."

Feng Qi directly stretched out her hand, scanned the chip on her wrist on Xu Yuan's system payment interface, and urged: "Okay, okay, go, go!"

During Feng Qi's continuous pushing and pulling movements, Xu Yuan squeezed into an automatic suspension vehicle with him.As the vehicle rose, Feng Qi squatted on the ground and lay down under the window, with a pair of eyes peeking into the crowd below.After making sure that the people sent by the family didn't notice him leaving, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and slowly straightened up and stood up.

Xu Yuan: "It's really strange."

"what."

Xu Yuan: "Is that why you don't want to get married?"

"It's not that I don't want to get married." Feng Qi found a seat and sat down, crossed her legs, and said, "But after I get married, my mother will definitely urge me to have a baby quickly, or in other words, she just wants to have a baby." Let me have a baby quickly, and then force me to get married."

"Why?" Xu Yuan asked puzzled.

"Aren't you afraid that I will die!" Feng Qi snorted and said, "People in my family all get married early. After all, the profession is so dangerous, maybe one day they will disappear. But my mother and I have different ideas. After death, what is left? Instead of making two people who care about me cry every day, it’s better to let them live a life of peace and ease in a healthy and complete family! Don’t worry about me all day long because of me Why...why drag others down. And I have a few younger brothers and sisters, so I'm not in a hurry."

Xu Yuan pretended to be surprised and said, "I didn't expect you to be considerate of others! It's so long that you can see everything."

Feng Qi was so angry that she kicked Xu Yuan.

"Who said it!"
