Director of Rebirth

On October 1998, 10, the 11-day military training for freshmen from the [-]th circle of the Military Economics College ended after the morning performance. At noon, all the instructors, teachers and students sat together and had a final meal, and then walked to the training ground with their luggage Side door waiting to leave.

Standing in the sun and carrying a backpack, Shi Lei looked around in the line, looking for a shady place. When he turned his head, Shi Lei and Miao Jianhai's gazes collided, and Miao Jianhai flashed his dodging eyes slightly. Shi Lei laughed from the bottom of his heart, and looked away indifferently.

At this time, Miao Jianhai, whose eyes collided with Shi Lei, felt a little heartbroken. Although the incident had passed for two days, Miao Jianhai still couldn't face Shi Lei. Thinking of what Shi Lei said when Shi Lei found him on the fourth day of the past, Miao Jianhai felt a little regretful in his heart. Miao Jianhai didn't remember Shi Lei's other words, but Miao Jianhai clearly remembered that Shi Lei asked himself whether the military uniform made him proud , How did I answer in a daze?Angrily roaring or guilty dodge?

Miao Jianhai, with his head down, looked at the green uniform on his body. How could the military uniform not make him proud? It was the result of three years of hard work. It was the only connection between him and his mother who died prematurely. He closed his eyes to block it. Miao Jianhai didn't expect that people would know about the sudden burst of tears. Miao Jianhai also didn't expect that he thought it was just a joke, and it would make people doubt whether he was qualified to wear this military uniform. He smiled wryly from the bottom of his heart, for some reason, when Shi Lei asked himself, he suddenly remembered the leader who said that he was not worthy to be a soldier.

Shaking his head vigorously, he quickly got rid of the self-doubt in his heart. Miao Jianhai became ruthless in his heart. He will definitely be the best soldier. The hands covered by the cuffs were tightly clenched together.

"Assemble, assemble, hurry up and pedal." Zhang Jian, who had arranged the vehicle, ran back to his team and saw the loose team yelling for assembly. Following Zhang Jian's roar, all the students were looking for a place to cool off or bid farewell to the instructor. Reassembled the team and boarded the liberation car for the return journey in order.

When the Liberation Vehicle was driving slowly, Shi Lei saw Han Yueze walking slowly into the distance. With a little smile in his eyes, Shi Lei stretched out his hand and waved it vigorously. When he saw Han Yueze smiling, Shi Lei retracted his arm and smiled. one time.

One after another, the liberation vehicles loaded with freshmen from the [-]th and [-]th circles of the School of Economics left, and left the anti-aircraft artillery regiment that made them reborn. From this moment on, the word "soldier" was marked on their bodies for the first time. a trace.

Perhaps it was because of Miao Jianhai's vigilance, or because of his natural indifference, Shi Lei returned to school and put all his energy into his studies. Shi Lei cherished this learning opportunity from the bottom of his heart, walking in the classroom, In the library and dormitory, Shi Lei interacted much less with his classmates. He came in class and left after class. Slowly, Shi Lei faded out of the sight of his classmates.

Shi Lei did not participate in the conflicts between veterans and recruits because of the exercise, nor did he join those so-called clubs. Shi Lei cherished every minute and every second, studying, exercising, taking financial classes, and taking various exams. As a comrade-in-arms, Shi Lei basically doesn't socialize with his classmates. Even if he has time, Shi Lei will go to the school warehouse to familiarize himself with things that he is not familiar with in the name of helping out.

At the end of one semester, when Shi Lei was about to be forgotten by his classmates that there was such a person by his side, Shi Lei came into people's sight again, and the only special scholarship in the entire military supply department fell on Shi Lei, and when he got the news, Those children who just walked into the university gate and were full of curiosity about leaving home and the military camp were dumbfounded to find that in just one semester, Shi Lei was able to order and inspect goods swiftly behind the junior senior.

And what surprised the students the most was that Shi Lei completed all the courses of his own department and the finance department at the same time without making a sound. Such an astonishing result made all the students dumbfounded. Announcement of praise to Shi Lei.

Shi Lei, who was sitting quietly in the first row, didn't pay attention to those strange eyes, but listened carefully to Zhang Jian's assignment, and there was still a week's vacation, so he could go home or go to the teaching base in the suburbs Continue to study. When he heard the news from Cao Liang half a month ago, Shi Lei was thinking about it in his heart. Although he resisted the high temperature, City W in January had already broken the limit of high temperature. Shi Lei was thinking Go back to the old army to find Song Jun and stay in the camp to study with the old chief of staff or go to the teaching base.

Although the seniors in Cao Liang’s dormitory said that the so-called base study is actually going to work, but in private, Cao Liang mentioned to Shi Lei that there are still many learning opportunities in the teaching base, it depends on whether you can eat. Can you work hard and study hard? Moreover, Shi Lei knows that Cao Liang can tell whether the military uniform is good or bad with just one hand. The feel of the military uniform was developed in the teaching base, but Cao Liang also said that during the nearly two months of vacation, he lost There is only one reason for losing [-] catties. I am tired and can't eat or sleep well.

After thinking about it again and again, Shi Lei still couldn't bear to give up this learning opportunity, and he became tired when he was tired. After he decided, Shi Lei went to the office with Zhang Jian directly after class, and reported his name. The one-semester contact is for himself. The long-faced Shi Lei, Zhang Jian as an instructor is not disliked, but Zhang Jian is also a little worried about Shi Lei's incompatibility. There are 56 students in the class, and the only one who has not signed up for the club is Shi Lei. The school's vigorous launch of clubs is nothing more than hoping that students will graduate At that time, they can become high-quality talents who "understand economics, management, research, and innovation" and have the moral character and style of a soldier.

But Shi Lei devoted all his energy to his studies, and even persuaded the dean of the finance department to let him take finance credits at the same time. Although he was envied by his friend Lu Li, who is also an instructor, he was encouraged by the heads of management clubs one after another. Zhang Jian had no choice but to love and hate Shi Lei.

Shi Lei who had filled out the registration form was stopped by Zhang Jian before he could say his farewell, with his hands on his knees, Shi Lei sitting on the stool made Zhang Jian laugh a little, "Shi Lei, choose a club to join next semester. "

Seeing that Shi Lei wanted to refuse, Zhang Jian straightened his face, "This is an order, you must participate."

Shi Lei frowned, "Yes, I promise to complete the task."

Hearing Shi Lei's answer, Zhang Jian relaxed his stern face and revealed a smile, "Shi Lei, don't feel that the instructor is making things difficult for you, you have to understand that learning is useless, you must integrate into the group, What is a collective? I think you who have been a soldier for two years are not ignorant. After graduation, whether you go to the logistics department or return to the grassroots, you need to deal with people. Could it be that you, Shi Lei, can hide in the warehouse all the time? ?”

Zhang Jian's words made Shi Lei a little dazed, carefully recalling all his words and deeds this semester, thinking about Zhang Jian's words, Shi Lei's thick sword eyebrows were tightly locked, yes, the chief secretary is not hiding in the small chief secretary's room If you don’t come out, you can do it. A grassroots secretary not only has to go to the logistics with the cheek to ask for some items that can be given or not, but also grab the best non-staple food at the lowest price. What should I do at that time?Do you want to hide behind and hand things over to the cooking squad monitor or company commander?

Shi Lei, who thought about it carefully, knew that he had entered a misunderstanding, and raised his head to look at Zhang Jian. The smiling Zhang Jian made Shi Lei show the first smile after entering the door, "Thank you, instructor."

Although Shi Lei's thank you was very light, there was an undisguised sincerity. Shi Lei's understanding made the smile on Zhang Jian's face more obvious. Zhang Jian spit out a happy laugh from Zhang Jian's mouth. He stood up and patted He patted Shi Lei on the shoulder, "Shi Lei, you are a good soldier, but whether you can be a good cadre, the instructor will wait and see."

Zhang Jian's words gave Shi Lei a trace of confidence, he stood up and looked at Zhang Jian, "Instructor, your student Shi Lei accepts your test anytime and anywhere."

The pride in Shi Lei's bones was clearly revealed at this moment, Zhang Jian's big laugh answered Shi Lei.

On January 1999, 1, Monday, with simple luggage on his back, Shi Lei rushed to the teaching base in the suburbs alone with the certificate given to him by Zhang Jiankai. Shi Lei was also the only student in the entire Military Supply Department who signed up for the teaching base.

After reversing the car for nearly two hours, Shi Lei came to a somewhat remote mountain depression on the outskirts of W City. The teaching base of the School of Economics is located in the middle of this mountain depression. After getting off the car and walking for another 10 minutes, Shi Lei came here looking obvious. Some dilapidated teaching bases frowned, looking at the empty and dilapidated teaching bases from the front, it seemed that there was no one at all. If there were no guards, Shi Lei would have thought this place was an abandoned factory.

Walking to the gate guard, after handing over the certificate and his student ID to the gate post, Shi Lei walked into the teaching base through the small door on the side. Shi Lei, who was following behind the guard, frowned more and more. The first impression was that it was very empty. After walking for more than ten minutes and bypassing a two-meter-high wall, Shi Lei narrowed his eyes instantly, and nine huge warehouses in a half circle appeared in Shi Lei's eyes.

"How about you kid? Not bad, don't think that there is nothing in the base, just study hard." The smiling words made Shi Lei look away, smiled, and didn't say anything.

Bypassing the warehouse, Shi Lei, who was taken to the office building by the guard, looked at the brand new three-story building in front of him speechlessly. The small building was very new and had a faint smell. The teaching base of the brand-new small building will look so broken.

Walking into the small building, Shi Lei went directly to the second floor according to the location pointed by the guard. On the left, one, two, Shi Lei stood at the third door which didn't even have a label. He knocked on the door until he heard a voice coming from inside. With a lazy voice, Shi Lei pushed open the door and walked in.

A desk, a bookshelf, a chair, and a comfortable single bed. The man in his 40s sitting on the bed who obviously just woke up caused Shi Lei to raise his eyebrows slightly, put away the slight surprise in his heart, and stood at attention to salute. "Report, Shi Lei, a student from the [-]th Military Quartermaster Department of the School of Economics, will report to you."

After finishing speaking, Shi Lei handed his certificate and student ID to the lazy man, "New student?" The man who took the certificate and certificate asked hoarsely.

"Yes." Shi Lei, who was standing upright, replied loudly.

"Native rabbit or foreign rabbit?" Shi Lei didn't understand what the man asked afterwards, and looked at the man with puzzlement. Shi Lei's performance made the man stand up and walk to the desk, and lit a cigarette, "Are you a veteran?" Still a rookie."

"Veteran." Shi Lei, who understood, replied again. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but Shi Lei felt that the man's expression was a little more relaxed than before.

"Okay, I see, there is no dormitory, the old building has been demolished, and the new building has not been tidied up. You see the warehouse. There is a hut in the third warehouse from the left. Clean it up yourself. You can live there." After the man finished speaking, he looked at Shi Lei, "Yes." Shi Lei's unchanging expression and unhesitating answer made the man smile, "Take the key and go straight there, order tomorrow morning, start at seven in the morning, go."

Shi Lei answered again and stood at attention, took the key thrown by the man, saluted and turned to leave.

According to the position mentioned by the man, he opened the small door under the warehouse gate and walked into the warehouse. The huge warehouse was not empty, and it was filled with various military uniforms such as cotton coats and hats. After a glance, Shi Lei walked to the right. The hut, opened the door, and a choking smell came.

Shi Lei coughed and coughed, frowned and covered his nose. The dirty and smelly hut has been unoccupied for some time. Although there is a small window next to the door, the completely sealed window makes the house feel like Suffocated like lack of oxygen.

Exiting the hut, Shi Lei put down the backpack behind him, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to clean up. If this kind of house is not cleaned up, there is no way to live in it. First, he ran back to the office building to borrow brooms and other tools for cleaning. Go back to the hut and start packing.

Although the small room is not big, Shi Lei cleaned it up for nearly two hours. He didn't know who the previous occupant lived in. Shi Lei actually found two pairs of unwashed socks under the bed. Two pairs of socks that can stand up, Shi Lei's head full of black lines.

At night, lying on the quilt with a smell of muffled smell from the new collar, Shi Lei's heart was surprisingly calm. Shi Lei had a feeling that he would learn a lot here, in this dilapidated base.
