Everyone drank one cup after another, as if drinking to death.

That night was the Ninth Squadron's holiday, and no one checked any discipline. They all fell unconscious and lay on the ground in disorder.

In the early morning, Su Yi was the first to wake up. He shook his dizzy head, tidied up his military appearance, then woke up Captain Cen, helped carry the brothers back to the dormitory to rest, said hello and left.

Back in the No. [-] Squadron, Su Yi found that the atmosphere here was almost the same as that of the No. [-] Squadron. His heart skipped a beat, and he immediately went to find Yuan Lang.

Yuan Lang was worrying about the computer.

"Report."

"Come in."

Su Yi entered Yuan Lang's office, stood at attention, and saluted: "Captain, Su Yi returns to the team."

Yuan Lang raised his eyes and looked at him: "You don't have to go to the Three Treasures Hall if you have nothing to do, why don't you just come and report?"

Su Yi hesitated slightly: "What happened to our squadron?"

Yuan Lang smiled wryly: "It's nothing. It's just that something went wrong with this mission."

Su Yi: "Didn't you say that this time is just a small task and there is no danger?"

"It's really not dangerous," Yuan Lang squeezed the space between his brows, "Xiao Su, come here and have a look at this."

Su Yi looked over and saw that there were two files on Yuan Lang's computer, which were two completely different mission reports for the same mission.

The first report: Six people on our side consumed 27 rounds of ammunition, killed ten enemies, and captured six people.The captives resisted fiercely, and Comrade Xia Ziqi responded in a timely manner and shot them all to death.

The second report: Six people on our side consumed 27 rounds of ammunition, killed ten enemies, and captured six people.The captives did not make any resistance, and Comrade Xia Ziqi shot them all on purpose.

Su Yi was stunned, holding a trace of luck: "Is the first one real or..."

"The second one," Yuan Lang smiled wryly, breaking Su Yi's hope, "I wanted to write about killing people by mistake, but one or two is okay, and killing six by mistake... I can't figure it out. "

Su Yi: "You can't hand in the second copy, it will ruin the child's life!"

Yuan Lang: "I know. The problem lies here. Of course I can submit the first report, but that bastard insists on seeking truth from facts."

Su Yi: "Is he crazy?!"

Yuan Lang: "I think he is crazy. I asked him to think about it this week. I will submit the first report first. If he still insists on seeking truth from facts after a week, he can bypass me and appeal to his superiors."

Su Yi: "But... In this case, you will be punished for not reporting what you know?"

Yuan Lang showed his usual slyness: "It depends on that bastard, whether I, the captain, is more important, or his seeking truth from facts is more important."

Su Yi relaxed a little: "He shouldn't be so muddled... Why this time? Ziqi will not shoot and kill prisoners for no reason."

Yuan Lang said solemnly: "He answered the phone the day before the mission, and then his condition was a little bit wrong. Ask him what's wrong and he said it's nothing, I was negligent at the time, so I let him go to the battlefield. What's wrong, the result..."

"What's the result?"

"When the captives were kidnapped, those few said a dirty word in Vietnamese, probably to greet our parents or something. Only Xia Ziqi here on our side understands Vietnamese," Yuan Lang's wry smile was so deep that wrinkles creased his face, " He understood, drew his gun and shot six people without saying a word. He moved too fast and we were all taken aback."

"Kill someone because of swear words?!" Su Yi was stunned, "What's wrong with Ziqi?!"

"I didn't know until I came back that something happened to Xia Ziqi's family," Yuan Lang sighed. "He answered the phone that day, and a drunk driver hit their car. His parents died, and he also had an 11-year-old brother." , is still in the intensive care unit, whether he can survive depends on luck. When he heard the swear words against his parents, he suddenly lost control of his emotions... and he can't be blamed."

Su Yi was in a daze: "Is there anyone else in his family?"

Yuan Lang: "No, the others are distant relatives who can't be reached at all. This call was made by their neighbors."

Su Yi: "I'll go see him."

Yuan Lang nodded: "Go ahead, try to persuade me, in fact, I really don't want to be punished."

Su Yi forced a smile, saluted and left.

Xia Ziqi had no training, and the door was closed tightly. When Su Yi opened the door and entered, he was sitting by the bed, smoking one cigarette after another.

In the smog, Xia Ziqi's face was unclear, but in short, he didn't have the usual hippie smile.

Hearing the noise, Xia Ziqi raised his head and forced a smile: "Are you back?"

"I'm back," Su Yi sat next to him, without looking at him, and looked forward, "I heard that too."

Xia Ziqi's forced smile also disappeared: "You know everything."

"The captain is betting that you will give up seeking truth from facts because you won't let him be punished." Su Yi snatched the cigarette from Xia Ziqi's hand and extinguished it, "but I know he will lose."

Xia Ziqi clicked another one: "I didn't expect you to know me best."

"Ziqi, I know what you're thinking." Su Yi's eyes wandered, as if he had returned to that day more than ten years ago, "I have also experienced the experience of losing a loved one, and it was right in front of me. I know your Ideas, sticking to principles, seeking truth from facts, these are just a few factors that affect your decision.”

Xia Ziqi remained silent, smoking fiercely.

Su Yi's throat moved slightly: "At that time, I watched my dearest relative pass away, and the only thought I had was that I wanted to cling to the only remaining relative. I know you are the same, you deliberately want to be punished, and then you will be discharged from the army and go home. For your younger brother. You have a close relative outside your family, you don’t trust anyone else to take care of your younger brother, you, like me, want to cling to the only relative.”

"Yes, you see through me, but so what?" Xia Ziqi dusted off the cigarette, "I have to go back, my brother is still lying in the hospital, I don't know if he will survive...even if he can't , I also want to try my best to take care of him for the last period of time, as long as I can. You are right, I have no other relatives, and no one can take care of my brother as hard as I can. "

"If you leave the army, what will you do to take care of your brother?" Su Yi asked coldly, "Your savings will be spent, so what else can you do besides being a soldier? Even if you find a job, can your salary be higher than that of old A? Your brother will be hospitalized , what do you use to pay for the medical bills?"

Xia Ziqi was silent for a while: "There will always be a way. Now I just want to go home and take care of my brother. Do you know? There is no one at home, and the neighbors are not so dedicated. I have never heard the name of the hospital where my brother lives. I want Go back and go through the formalities, and transfer him to Beijing 301 to receive the best treatment."
