[Moriarty worried about the country] Cub, wake up, it's time to start work!

30 years later, the First World War.

Continental Europe, Western Front.

"Lieutenant General! Lieutenant General Moriarty!!"

The messenger soldiers ran at high speed, gasping for breath, and stopped outside the army's main tent, shouting loudly.

"What are you shouting, do you want to quarrel the enemy army?!" A majestic officer walked out of the tent, but as long as you observe carefully, even that heroic face can't hide her true gender.Charlotte Moriarty, Lieutenant General of the *British Army and Commander of the [-]rd Battalion of the Regiment.

"I'm very sorry, Lieutenant General! Report to Lieutenant General, now that the enemy army has begun to move south, should our army take action?"

"I didn't get an order from the superior, and everything acted as it was."

"Yes!" The messenger ran back the same way, Charlotte lit a cigarette, silently watched the soldier go away, turned around and walked to the temporary field medical center after smoking.

------------

Before coming to the medical center, Charlotte opened the door and walked in.The wounded on the chairs by the corridor were waiting for treatment. Some people who knew her greeted her aloud. After a brief questioning, Charlotte walked into one of the consultation rooms.

In the consulting room, a female doctor with shoulder-length short hair was writing a medical report intently at the desk. After Charlotte stood at the door for 5 minutes, the female doctor barely gave her a look.

"Lucy."

"Oh, who am I? What's the point of coming here, Lieutenant General?"

"Are you injured or are you visiting a sick person...?"

"Lucy." Charlotte frowned, just looking at the white-robed doctor in front of her.

Lucy put down her pen, turned around and looked at Charlotte with raised eyebrows, her red eyes were full of sarcasm.

"Why, the Lieutenant General can't speak anymore? This disease is troublesome——"

"Lucy—" being interrupted suddenly, Lucy frowned dissatisfied.

"You know what I'm going to say." Charlotte looked at her intently.

"What do you want to say? Hehe, could it be that the superior ordered all the members of your poor battalion to mobilize, and you can't bear to come here to find someone to complain about?"

"Lucy, I can't—"

"You can't act without authorization, right? The superior orders the superior order, and uses this reason every time. Do you think I'm stupid, Charlotte?" Lucy stood up and looked at Charlotte fiercely.

"...I have no choice." Charlotte said silently, and Lucy laughed ironically after hearing this.

"You have no choice? Well, then just watch thousands and hundreds of soldiers die! Or do you want to die with them?!"

"Orders from superiors?! Those who were born and died on the battlefield were the chief of staff sitting leisurely in the command post or the commander-in-chief?? By the time the order came down, everyone would have died long ago!!"

"You know, Charlotte. I'm a doctor, a life saver in the rear. Until now, how many soldiers have I seen bleeding and how many people have died?! As a doctor, even if you try your best, you can't save the lives of the wounded , I can only watch my life drain from my fingers, I am so useless, I am not worthy of the title of doctor!"

Lucy glared fiercely at Charlotte, who closed his eyes after hearing the words to hide the worried look in his eyes.

"Remember my words, Lucy. No matter what, protect yourself." Charlotte turned and walked out the door, her clothes drawing an arc in the air.

"Hehe, thanks to the Lieutenant General, I can't die yet." Charlotte paused, then continued to move forward as if nothing had happened, and walked out of the medical center.

Night, England, Moriarty House.

Xu Xiangcheng woke up from her sleep, she looked up and looked out of the window, the bright moonlight was shining on the window sill, it was a peaceful night.It has been decades since she crossed over, and the First World War has begun, but in the Two-dimensional world, they haven't grown old, at best, their hair has turned gray.From this point of view, she and William are also a veritable old couple.

"What's the matter, Xiangxiang?" William, who was sleeping beside him, woke up, got up and sat on the bed, and looked at her sleepily. "Have a nightmare?"

"I forgot what it was, it's not very good anyway." Xu Xiangcheng frowned slightly, and William gently hugged her in his arms.

"Forget it, it's just a dream."

"But I always feel that something is wrong." Xu Xiangcheng nestled in William's arms, unconsciously rubbing his head against his neck.

"William, do you think Charlotte and the others will be okay?"

"No." William patted her on the back lightly. "They'll be all right."

"really?"

"Really. You have to trust the judgment of the crime minister!" Xu Xiangcheng laughed softly when he heard this.

"Well then, Mr. Criminal, I have one more question for you."

"Please, my lady."

Xu Xiangcheng pinched William's cheek, "When will the war end?"

"Soon, no later than this year!" William grabbed Xu Xiangcheng's paw that was acting out of control, and put it on his lips to kiss it softly.

"Then, I'll trust you this time~ What if this year doesn't end?"

"Hey, Madam doesn't trust me that much? It's really sad." William's tone was coquettish, and Xu Xiangcheng smiled and stroked his golden hair.

"Believe it, believe it, of course I believe you!" Why is this person becoming more and more coquettish as he gets older?But she likes it.

"It's my honor to relieve my wife's worries." William leaned over and kissed her forehead.

"Okay, then, would Mr. Will accompany me out to look at the moon?"

"my pleasure."

Under the moonlight, the two snuggle together, wearing a coat together, looking at the same sky, slowly recalling the past and looking forward to the future, just like they have been doing for decades.

------------

Durham, Durham University.

A man with round glasses walked in the campus. He walked around a few times and walked into the teacher's office with ease.

"Irene? I'm here to see you!" He pushed open the door, and Irene sat on the seat.

"Eddie? Why are you here?" The blond woman tilted her head and got up to greet her brother.

"I miss my sister, let's take a look, okay?"

"Of course! I was just a little surprised just now."

The two siblings were sitting in the office, discussing their recent living conditions.Erin followed in William's footsteps and became a music teacher in Durham, while Eddie followed Xu Xiangcheng's wish and became a writer.

The two chatted and talked about the war.

"Sister Irene, do you think... Charlotte and Lucy will come back safely?"

"Of course, they must come back safely! Didn't father say the same?"

"That's right, they will definitely come back safely. At that time, our family will have a reunion and celebrate the Spring Festival together!"

They looked at each other and smiled, each praying for a better future in their hearts.

------------

Western Front.

The sound of artillery fire continued, and the soldiers charged forward on the battlefield. The sky was filled with gravel and gunpowder smoke, and there was blood and wailing everywhere.

"Report Lieutenant General, the enemy has already entered our main force, may I ask you to retreat?!"

"Order from above, concentrate artillery fire, stick to your post!"

"Yes!" The messenger ran to the battlefield ahead, and after finishing off the two enemy troops next to him, Charlotte sent an order to a soldier not far away.

"You, go to the medical center immediately and tell everyone to evacuate completely, this is an order!"

After receiving the order, the little soldier ran to the rear. Charlotte watched it for a few seconds, then picked up his gun and rushed to the battlefield again.

Drops of blood fell from the sky, splashing beautiful flowers on the yellow ground.The soldiers fell one by one, blood staining the whole earth.Under their desperate resistance, the enemy gradually lost and began to retreat to the rear, and the snipers also retreated one after another.

"Lieutenant General! We have won the Lieutenant General!!" Xiao Bing shouted happily to her, Charlotte nodded, but in the next second, she suddenly caught a glimpse of something falling on the ground.

"Be careful!! Everyone get down!!!" She rushed over and pushed the soldier away.

"Boom—" the explosion sounded, and the sparks were accompanied by thick smoke.

------------

In the early morning, the field medical headquarters.

Lucy sat on the bench, looking at the distant sky.The wind blew up her white robe and the fallen leaves all over the sky.She stared into the distance, recalling a little memory in her heart.

For some reason, she didn't sleep well this night and got up before dawn.Feeling a little stuffy in my heart, I had no choice but to come out to relax.

Charlotte, her older sister, was the person she admired the most among her siblings when she was a child.Everyone thought that she would be a famous detective like Uncle Xia, but instead she joined the army to serve the country.

In fact, she also knew that without an order, it was impossible for Charlotte to act without authorization, and it would be dereliction of duty if she did so.

But I don't know why, she gets angry when she sees her, is it really just...for those soldiers who died in battle...?

The morning sun rises, and the dawn cuts through the thick clouds.Lucy looked at the light, and a sudden sadness welled up in her heart.

It was dawn and the sun rose.

But where is my sun?

The author has something to say:

updated!

In fact, although there were female soldiers in Britain during World War I, they were all in logistics~ It was impossible to go to the battlefield (?ω?*)

So this chapter is considered private~

I originally wanted to write trenches, but found that I couldn't write (;?;)

(Actually, Charlotte is not dead (??ω?｀)
