Chapter 24: "What I Hear" [2.2]
All of this is actually accidental, and it seems to be predestined. [No pop-ups. Anyway, I can't escape her.
After the end of the war, the Central Continental Expeditionary Force began to help rebuild the major cities of the Nippon Islands and the South Seas, and the recovery was very impressive, and a lot of propaganda reports followed. It's their style, and I don't care as long as I can get back to life as soon as possible.
One day, when I was preparing for the flight, I received a report on my mobile phone about the post-war reconstruction. When I saw the title picture, I was taken aback, the place in the photo was my home, and the big blood-red caption reads - Osaka Rebirth.
My heart was beating wildly, and my head exploded with a buzz. I was alone in the prep room, so I somehow stood up, turned off the lights, sat back in the corner, and plucked up the courage to continue looking down. The beginning part is the coming of the catastrophe, and the photos in it are all tragic after the disaster. The first photo shows the flattened bodies of a family of five hugging each other after the roof is lifted. The Hundred Days Ghost was out of control in the early hours of the morning, people were sleeping, and the casualties were particularly miserable. In the photo, some people were broken by the waist, and the front half of their bodies were desperately crawling forward, dying halfway. Some have only half a face. I don't want to describe them one by one, these pictures brought back painful memories of me, and my heart pumped tightly, and my whole body ached.
Looking down one by one, I was deeply in a state of great grief, and my face was full of tears, dripping down one by one. But I still looked at it carefully, and I didn't miss any details. Wasn't this mental self-harm, or was it an extreme way for me to overcome the pain I felt about losing my sister? Now that I think about it, I'm afraid not, I seem to be expecting something, I'm afraid of something, I'm looking for something.
Suddenly, my heart was beating wildly, and then it almost stopped, and my blood clotted. For a short period of time I felt unable to breathe, unable to scream, unable to move, and it took me a while to gradually recover.
This picture is exactly my home. In the picture, the two-story old house has completely collapsed, the broken bricks are blackened by the flames, and the side of the eaves is pressed with a large mass of rags, black and dirty. If you look closely, you will see that it is a person, a little girl, with the entire back half of her body crushed in the rubble, only her head and hands hanging out, wrapped in her clothes, scorched by the fire.
That's my sister. That's exactly what my sister looked like when she died.
In a panic, the phone fell to the ground, and the back cover and battery were thrown out. I stood up and walked to the window to look out to make sure no one was coming, and then I went back to my seat to pick up my phone and battery, the screen was off.
From that day on, I was terrified, and my results plummeted, not to mention participating in the competition, and I couldn't even do the basic movements. I didn't know what was wrong with me, I just felt like she was back and pulling me like she had done before, keeping me from moving forward. My whole body was dragged to the ground by her, and I couldn't take a step, and my future was bleak. The life I wanted to start anew was also in vain.
Let me catch my breath.
I really don't know how to say it. Anyway, until one day, I met her, a girl. The first time I saw her, I thought she could save my life. Her name is Kim Jiang Hee and she looks exactly like my sister. Her eyes, her face, are simply the same. Could it be that my sister has been reincarnated and has come to me?
I can't hold back any longer, I'm going to let her know about me anyway and get her back to me. This time, I will never let her be hurt in any way, I can say that I have truly risked my life for her.
"You know what? For the sake of Jin Jiangji, I once fought against the strongest pilot in the world. ”
“…… Yes, I know. ”
"I didn't win, but I won her heart."
After the battle of the castle tower, the power of the Owari gumi was greatly weakened, especially Maleria far from the mainland, some of the gang members went to the new capital, and some returned to the mainland, I didn't go anywhere, only followed Kane Hime, and I wanted to use the ability I had honed in the Owari group to protect her.
Novo Minsk, my battlefield.
I operated the new MiG-29K-OVT on the ship, fought in the east and west, and I didn't know how many battles I fought, and I almost died several times in the middle, but as long as I saw that Jin Jiangji was safe, I felt some comfort in my heart. There were so many and frequent battles that I didn't know how long they had been fighting, day and night, chaotic, my whole body and mind were extremely tired, and people were in a trance. But I've been thinking in my heart that Jin Jiangji will see everything I have done for her, so it's worth it, she must be my reincarnated sister. Gradually, under the fatigue of the battle and the back and forth torment of this determination, I even lost my normal feelings. One day, there was a fire on the deck.
I thought it was my sister who came to pick me up, so I didn't run.
Unfortunately, the fire didn't kill me, and when I woke up, I just felt pain, unbearable pain, like countless poisonous knives cutting my whole body, my nose hurt, my throat hurt. But why, is it not enough that I have done so much, and when will I be free? yes, I'm definitely not doing enough. The new Minsk was still fighting, and I took advantage of the interval between battles to crawl out of bed in severe pain, go to the hangar, and get into a fighter. Luckily, that plane was launched. I stretched out my hand, there was no skin on it, and I still insisted on making a sortie request. The fighter was lifted onto the flight deck, slid into the take-off zone, and I set off. After the plane took off, I suddenly felt very hot, there was fire all around, and it was great that my sister came to pick me up. I'm going to fight, fight! Until my sister came back to me.
"But I didn't get anything. Why. I am neither alive nor dead now, I just feel that there is fire everywhere and fire in me. Why, on earth, am I not doing enough? ”
“……”
"Answer me. Since you are the leader, lead me through this path. ”
“…… What do you want to know. ”
"Answer, you know the answer."
"Yes, I see the answer, I see it in you."
"Then tell me."
"It doesn't make sense. If you want to be liberated, you have to be honest with yourself. Jin Jiangji is not your sister, no matter how much you do and how much you suffer, it is just your way to escape. If you really want your sister back, you first have to turn around and face her, face the real her, face the real facts, and not any substitute. ”
"The facts? Facts. ”
Yes, there is a fact buried in my heart, and this fact I want to bury in the ruins together.
It's horrible, I can't tell. Let me be still, the fact that my heart is beating too fast is terrible. Well, in fact, I was hating my sister at the time of the disaster!
I hated her, she dragged me so that I couldn't go out and stay on the street to work for the neighbors with bad intentions. The neighbors knew that I had nowhere to go, and deliberately did not sign a contract with me and deducted my wages. I have to take care of my younger sister, she is a sick person, she is very weak, she usually needs to be taken care of, and she can't go out at all. If my sister had been following me, I would have been dragged down by her for the rest of my life, and my whole life would have been ruined.
Do you know why I would know my father's information, because the people in the Owari group had already approached me, and they said that they would let me compete using the Hyakinoni system and that they would make me the champion. But there is only one condition, I have to get rid of my sister. Originally, the community only accepted people who did not have relatives. They made a condition that if I said a word, they would help me dispose of this oil bottle sister secretly. But I refused, I couldn't do anything like that.
Hehe, it's funny, I understand why my dad dumped my mom, and I understand why my mom abandoned us. It turns out that we are both hindering each other's progress.
In this case, disaster has struck, a fire is raging, how can my heart not be shaken.
"But if I didn't do it, she would have been burned alive by the fire. I'm helping her out, there's nothing wrong with that. ”
“…… If you can be honest with yourself, why do you still turn a blind eye? ”
There's nothing to say, I know what you're talking about.
These words of yours remind me of one of my classmates. When he and I went for a drink, a few of our fellow villagers talked about the disaster again. My classmate said that he knew that there was a family that was really lucky, and that family only had an old mother, and she was lonely. When the catastrophe struck, her building collapsed, and the entire wooden pillar fell down, smashing half of her body. At this time, the fire burned, and the heat did not smoke her, and after a while, even the wooden pillar was burned off, and the old mother barely picked up her life.
When I heard this, I suddenly fell backwards in fright and fell heavily to the ground.
"I'm sorry...... My sister. ”
I killed her on purpose.
At that time, the fire was about to seal my escape route. I want to go, but what if my sister doesn't die, what if she is saved again. What will she think of me if I am not saved. Moreover, she will be a stumbling block for me, dragging me down. I wanted to be myself, but I was afraid that she wouldn't die, so I smashed her to death with a brick.
That's all there is to it.
"I don't know if I'm crying or laughing. Now, tell me what else I can do. ”
"Let it be. I'm also looking for answers, and when I do, I'll tell you. ”
"Well, I'm waiting for your answer."
——
Mercenary battleship Novo Minsk, night falls. Kim Jiang Ji received a report:
"Our lost MiG-29K fighter has been found."
"Where?"
"Crashed in Osaka."
"Osaka? How could it be so far. Is the driver him? ”
"The driver has confirmed that it is Sho Nakamura, a member of the Owari group that the princess took in in the castle tower. It's a bit strange though, he didn't die in a crash. The wreckage was found at the time of the crash, but the driver's body was already highly **, apparently dead for many days. During this period, the system relied on automatic navigation and automatic in-flight refueling requests, and flew all the way to Osaka. None of the mercenary tankers along the road noticed that the pilot had long since died. ”
"I know, immediately let all the pilots go to the infirmary for examination."
"Understood."
Sho Nakamura, Jin Jianghime remembers him. She has been by Sho Nakamura's side since she left Meng, and she is an impressive person, who has been through a hundred battles, but she didn't expect that such a strong person would die in the end, and die quietly.
On the other hand, the plan to counterattack the royal capital must be grasped. She had already equipped the pilot's fighter with the Whooping Ghost system, something that the Central Continent and the King did not yet know. Now that the fighter is falling in Osaka, it won't be long before the matter is revealed. The sooner the better.
