Chapter 252: Selfishness and Fulfillment

Lin Yu was still young when the Wenchuan earthquake occurred in 08, but he was very impressed by the disaster, because Wenchuan was the only focus of attention in the whole country at that time. Everyone was concerned about the latest reports on the disaster area, and even the penguin chat app was displayed in gray and white colors at the time.

Lin Yu thought that such a disaster was far away from him, and he did not feel any signs of an earthquake in the place where he lived. However, in those days, the students who lived on campus still spontaneously laid bunks on the playground so that they could flee for their lives at any time in the event of an earthquake. The school acquiesced in this, and hundreds of classmates got together, but they found some other fun, such as sitting around in twos and threes fighting to level up, and some playing more high-end killing games.

After a few nights of sleep on the playground, the power of the earthquake slowly passed, and everyone began to return to their dormitories, entering the life of the three points and the first line as usual, and the historic event that killed tens of thousands of people seemed to be forgotten by everyone.

What Lin Yu didn't expect was that she would meet someone who was closely related to the earthquake that year, and in her case, the consequences of the earthquake have lasted for ten years, and it is still not over.

Listening to the old man's words, Lin Yu was very moved, and he asked softly, "Grandma, have you ever regretted letting him join the army?"

The old man sighed slightly, "If you want to say that you have never regretted it, it must be false, my son's results in the college entrance examination that year can go to a good ordinary university, but he has a soft spot for being a PLA soldier." The old man looked at the military medal in his hand again, and the expression of loss on his face was a little relieved, "But I know that my son must not regret it, his one life has been exchanged for a full seventy-eight lives, and one of them is a baby under the age of one..."

The room fell silent, and Lin Yu felt that his heart had been hit by something, and he was always aching. The old man's love is selfish, she just wants her son to be by her side and have a reunion dinner with her son during the Chinese New Year. But the old man's love is great at the same time, she understands her son's original intention of wanting to become a PLA soldier, so in that rescue operation, her son continued to rescue the victims from the rubble is to realize his value as a PLA soldier, so the old man has no regrets, but chooses to fulfill.

"Remember, we were at the People's Liberation Army Academy, and we heard their slogans?" the old man put the military medal and posthumous photo back in the wooden box, and looked out of the window at the alley, where life was still as quiet and peaceful as yesterday and many days ago.

Lin Yu nodded heavily, "I remember, what they shouted was, love my military camp, love my China, be willing to shed blood, and serve the motherland." ”

A smile appeared on the corner of the old man's mouth, "My son must have shouted the same way back then, so when he rescued in the disaster area, he was willing to spill his blood." ”

At this time, the old man's consciousness seemed very clear, and his eyes flashed with the light of wisdom. Her current appearance is very suitable for the identity of the newspaper editor back then, and the furnishings and tastes at home are also reasonable.

"Grandma, since you know in your heart that he has already left, why do you still send the 300,000 to the fraudster?" Lin Yu asked with some puzzlement.

The old man no longer denied the fact that she had been deceived this time, she smiled indifferently, "Xiaoyu, do you know, that person's voice is really exactly the same as my son's, when he called me mom on the phone, I really felt like I was talking to my son." At that time, I blurted out a sentence, son, where are you now?"

The old man re-covered the wooden box in his hand, and carefully placed it under his bed, recalling the time when he was cheated, and there was still no hatred on the old man's face.

He pretended to be my son, and I wanted to hear him again, so we went on wrong. To be honest, his fraud tricks are really clumsy, it must be the first time he has done such a bad thing. At first, he hung up the phone after not saying a few words to me, wondering if he was afraid of showing his feet. Later, I deliberately involved some other things on the phone, so we talked longer and longer, and by talking to him on the phone, I could relieve my pain of missing my son.

But then, he seemed to sense my intentions and began to stop answering my calls. I had to shift the conversation to withdrawing money, saying that I couldn't find my deposit slip, and then saying that I had forgotten my withdrawal password, and the number of calls we had gradually increased. But there is always a time when these topics are finished, and he is constantly urging me to take out 300,000 yuan and put it in his hands.

Eventually, I became curious about the man, and wondered what he looked like, and if he would look a little like my son, and I decided to meet him. I took the money I had withdrawn and went to Yangcheng alone. It was a rainy day, and I was shivering in the cold wind, and after waiting for about ten minutes, the man finally appeared.

He stepped out of a cab with a black mask on his face and was about the same height as my son. Seeing him walking towards me, I was a little excited, and I thought it would be worth it to see him and talk to him. When we looked at each other, I saw his eyes clearly, and his eyes were not as clear as those of the young man, and there was a timidity in them, and after only a second of eye contact with me, he quickly looked away from his gaze.

I can feel that this person's nature is not bad, and it must be out of his helplessness to scam through phone calls. He must have been married and had children, and I thought at the time that maybe he was doing it for his wife and children. I hope that after this money is handed over to him, it will solve his urgent needs and make a new change.

Seeing that he was leaving, I deliberately said a word to let him release my son as soon as possible. Because I still want to hear his voice exactly like my son, I know that this is the last chance, and with the money, he will definitely not answer my calls again.

However, my old woman's wish was not fulfilled after all, and he left without saying a word. I watched the taxi leave until I couldn't see him anymore..."
