"Ma'am." Lu Sihai's smiling face was vague in the unclear environment.

Jing Yi saw that he was dressed in civilian clothes, still so capable and decent, leaned forward slightly, and also greeted him, and asked, "Are you in a hurry?" How's it going? ”

"Yes, I've been waiting for a while. The Commander has just sent someone over to ask if you've arrived. Let's go back and follow my car. About 10 minutes by road. Lu Sihai hurriedly said.

"Good. Lead the way. Jingyi said.

Lu Sihai saluted again, and trotted to the jeep in front of him. Jingyi saw him wave his hand to let the few people who were waiting for him get into the car - they were all agile, and soon the car started and drove forward...... Jingyi heard Meng Songhua say with a smile: "I thought I would be able to see Commander Tao here, which made me so nervous." He"

As he spoke, he opened the curtains and looked out. It was pitch black outside, and the dense woods could be seen only by the limited point of the headlights. The outermost trunk was very pale, like a stump, and after that, nothing could be seen.

"You're the most daring of people." Jingyi knew that Meng Songhua was joking, and she also smiled.

Meng Songhua touched his chest and said, "It's the first time I've returned to the military." If there's something you want to say or do inappropriately, you must remind me......"

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Jingyi, thinking of something, and the words stopped there.

Jing Yi saw that his expression was not quite right, and asked, "What?" ”

"Nothing. I just thought, how great it would be if our country had a navy as powerful as the United States and had a Pacific Fleet! Alas......" Meng Songhua said, sighing.

"Even if it doesn't exist now, it will definitely be in the future. There is always a way to win this war. Jingyi whispered.

Meng Songhua shook his head and said, "I don't know why I've been a little desperate lately. Many years ago, I thought that if I was a good doctor, I could save a lot of people, and I would not waste my life. Where would you have expected that in such a sinister era, you only hate yourself for not having the opportunity to do more...... If you look at the news in the newspapers today, and then look at the Japanese and traitors rampant on the beach in Shanghai, that face is simply incredible! I told Yunyi that if this continues, I can't be satisfied with just being a doctor in Shanghai. ”

"Don't you ......" Jingyi was a little excited when she saw Meng Songhua.

"I'm going to throw a pen and go from Rong." Meng Songhua said, holding the suitcase beside him on his lap, "Even if you die in battle, it's better than being trapped on this isolated island." ”

Jing Yi was slightly surprised, and wanted to persuade him, but thought that this might be because he was stimulated for a moment tonight, and his emotion may not be taken seriously--an intellectual like Meng Songhua, who has enthusiasm and enthusiasm, where can he endure the hardships on the battlefield-Before she could speak, Meng Songhua pointed at her and said with a smile, Catherine, you don't believe that I have such enthusiasm, you can't help but underestimate me.

"Where." Jingyi smiled.

"Do you know, even Mi Simei has the determination to put pen to paper, not to mention my seven-foot man, can I only see other mans defending the country?" Meng Songhua patted his suitcase, the corners of his eyebrows and eyes were full of passion.

Jingyi paused and said, "There are many ways to defend the country, and your stay at Tzu Chi may not be an achievement. In wartime, not only soldiers, but also civilians need medicine...... But what about Misme? ”

When she suddenly heard Meng Songhua mention Xiaomei, she immediately felt unusual.

Meng Songhua said: "Why, she didn't show this meaning to you? She's very serious. We've been working together a lot more lately, and sometimes we've talked. Misme has a great admiration for him, and seems to be a great soldier...... But she seemed to have suffered some frustration from him, so she was also a little discouraged. Tell me a little idea, or it can't be realized, you also know her family, I'm afraid it's not that easy. In this respect, I am more free to move than she is. ”

Jingyi heard the general meaning, and said, "Where are you freer than her?" You are a single family of three generations, Brother Meng. Besides, isn't it easy for my sister-in-law to pass that level? Can you be your civilian doctor with peace of mind? ”

"Do you remember what I said?" Meng Songhua laughed when he heard this, pointed at Jingyi again, waved his hand, and said, "Catherine, you really spared no effort for Tzu Chi. Okay, okay, I'm not going to tell you that. It's you, I'm afraid you don't necessarily don't have this heart, it's just that you can't leave. I can also see that many things here depend on you, and it is not just Tzu Chi Hospital. Instead, we, like me and Mithme, just need to convince our families......"

Meng Songhua's words, Jing Yi couldn't refute them for a while.

In her heart, she thought that this action in the war was commendable, but at the same time, she did feel that there was also a need for doctors left behind for civilians. They're doctors, after all...... Moreover, with her understanding of Meng Songhua and Anita Mui, it was Xiaomei who made her a little worried.

Xiaomei's family, although it is not a famous family in Shanghai, but it also has great power and influence, and it is the pearl of her father Mei Mengxian, and her every move will inevitably attract attention. Besides, the Mei family still has Mei Jikang, and it is not a miracle that Xiaomei really joined the army. But if Xiaomei made such a decision, according to Dr. Meng, wouldn't it be because of "discouragement"?

"In any case, don't make a hasty decision." Jingyi had no choice but to say this first.

Meng Songhua smiled, looked ahead, and said, "If I really join the army, I will definitely find a way to get under Commander Tao...... When the time comes, I will be able to thank you, Mrs. Tao, for your strong recommendation. ”

The car listened at this time, and Cheng Xi turned around and said, "Miss Ten, it's here." ”

Jing Yi raised his eyes and saw that the lights outside were almost all turned off except for their car, and it was pitch black, which was even darker than Fang Cai, and it made people feel that this place was even more mysterious.

Someone outside came to open the car door for them, Jingyi didn't notice that no one made a sound at this time, she pulled down her skirt, and when she was about to get out of the car, she suddenly felt that something was wrong, turned her face to look, and the whole person was fixed there, and she didn't make a sound - the person in front of her flashed to the side, and she saw a tall person pacing from not far away. He seemed to burst out of a cloud of inky black with a halo of light, the faint light making him look like a moving unreal shadow...... When she finally came to her, she wanted to reach out and touch the shadow, but she couldn't move.

She smelled the faint smoke and choked her nose, and the tip of her nose was sore and numb.

She raised her hand to rub the tip of her nose in disguise, and saw that Tao Xiao lowered her body slightly, raised her hand, covered the top of the car door, and did not speak, but her eyes were looking at her.

Jing Yi quickly stretched out her legs, and as soon as her feet landed, she got out of the car like a civet cat and stood in front of Tao Xiang.

She cleared her throat, and was about to speak, when his hand was grasped, and what she wanted to say was suddenly stuffed back into her throat, only to feel that her face was hot for a while, and her heart was pounding and fast...... She just looked at his side face, and was slightly taken by him, and let go of the car door, and saw that he nodded politely to Meng Songhua, who came after him, and said, "Hard work Doctor Meng." The wounded are on board. ”

While saying this, his hand let go of hers and shook hands with Meng Songhua.

Jingyi watched them say a few words to each other, and Meng Songhua hurried to see the wounded. Tao Xiang turned to the side slightly, and someone from the entourage standing on the side immediately came up and asked Meng Songhua to go ahead.

Jingyi came back to her senses, took a breath, and realized that no one had listened to her opinion since she got out of the car...... She couldn't help frowning, and glared at Tao Xiang—but in the dark shadow, this gaze was powerless, and even she felt discouraged—all around her was the sound of footsteps, and the sound of the short command in front of her, and in the gentle sound of the water and the wind, there was no superfluous sound, and she didn't know how to come if she wanted to speak. She couldn't help but stand there, not moving.

Tao Xiang took two steps forward, found that Jingyi didn't follow, stood down, and said, "Come." ”

"Miss Ten, we're here on standby." Cheng Xi followed behind Jing Yi, and after speaking, he took a few steps back and returned to the car. He waved his hand to the driver and others who should get into the car, and those who should turn their backs to go.

Tao Xiang glanced at Cheng Yi and them, stretched out his hand, shook Jingyi's hand, and said, "Come on." ”

His voice was much softer than before, and he didn't mean to let go immediately. It's as if he hasn't used such an attitude in a long time, and it's inevitable that he's being blunt.

Jingyi followed Tao Xiang and did not speak.

In fact, there are many things that can be said, but none of them seem to be important, so they have to be said now...... Her hand was clenched tightly by him, so her heart seemed to be broken by something, softening step by step.

They were on this short road to the warship.

Seeing that the huge warship became more and more massive in the field of vision, Jing Yi said softly: "This is going to leave from the waterway." ”

She didn't use the question, and she knew that he probably wouldn't answer. He wouldn't say a word about something he shouldn't have said—but when she looked up at the warship, she felt small...... It's unlike any time you've seen a giant cruise ship on a bustling pier.

Tao Xiang saw the mermaids in front of him moving forward, and successively passed through the narrow iron bridge and went up to the gangway.

The guards on the side of the iron bridge, just after a "salute", raised their guns and saluted in unison, and the lights on the Zhiyuan ship lit up at the same time. Some of the dazzling lights made them all squint when they were used to the darkness - Tao Xiang raised his hand and covered Jingyi's eyes.
