The sky was slowly getting darker, and the visibility around me was slowly decreasing.

The magpie stepped out of the bushes and helped us to be alert to the situation around us without saying a word.

In the bushes, only the three of us heartbroken men remained.

The dim air began to slowly fill the jungle, adding more sadness to the atmosphere of grief and indignation, and the trees swayed, as if to tell a kind of sadness, and that emotion was like a silk thread that wound around my heart one by one and slowly tightened.

Ercheng was still sobbing, the birds in the distance were wailing, and from time to time there was the sound of some birds flapping their wings and flying over the trees, all of which I saw in my eyes and listened to in my ears, and I only felt that this was unreal, it was like a big dream, a big dream that I couldn't wake up from.

Little Five,Leave this world forever.。。

He was only twenty years old, the age at which most boys had a crush on their senior sister at school, and today, forty kilometers behind the southwestern border of the motherland, he lay in my arms, completely silent.

He, like Li Xiao, died in this foreign land.

Xiao Wu is still very young, this is his first time participating in the actual combat of the mission, the result is obvious, he is very good, very strong, he is a qualified special soldier, he is worthy of the country, worthy of the army, and worthy of his comrades-in-arms! He is worthy of anyone!

But he will never wake up again, and he will not be able to wear the glory he has won to show us off, and he will probably receive a second-class military medal, which can only be handed over to a broken family.

What's the use of that? Little Five can't come back!

I wiped my tears and collected my sadness.

Ercheng quickly stopped sobbing, wiped his tears, reached out and patted me on the shoulder, and whispered, "Brother Chen, we have to go." ”

I slowly put Xiao Wu on the ground.

Yang Yuan stretched out his hand to close Xiao Wu's eyes, and then sighed.

Then Yang Yuan took out the topographic map, looked for the approximate coordinates, and made a mark on the map.

In the current situation, it is impossible to bring Xiao Wu, although we have forty or fifty kilometers left, but the enemy's pursuit will only get tighter and tighter.

At least more than a hundred people came to the enemy this time, and the commander Buck was killed, which can only temporarily cause a serious blow to the morale of the enemy army, they will report the situation, and then their leaders can only send more troops and more weapons to completely wipe us out within the border line, Buck is all folded in this primeval forest, and their leaders cannot have the patience to accompany us.

The 27th parallel of the border is now close to us, just forty or fifty kilometers, and we can reach it as long as there are no more accidents.

---- wiped my tears, put the object back in the box, and got up to place it under the partition in the cabinet.

I plan not to touch them again for a short time, and can only keep them in my heart as a real past, only a quick and cursory glance, but I can't savor the ups and downs in it.

It was past one o'clock in the morning, and I got dressed and pushed open the door and walked downstairs.

The weather in October has not yet shaken off the summer heat, and you can still feel a little stuffy at this point in the night, and more of it is the coolness brought by the wind in the air.

The house I rented is located in a corner of the city, the advantage is that the rental price is relatively cheap, and the nearby living facilities are more convenient, since I came back, everything I have is how convenient how to come, after all, I am a lazy person, this can't be helped.

I saw the lights on at the 24-hour convenience store on the side, so I walked in and bought a pack of cigarettes and a can of beer.

I've been here a lot, but it's not a few times I've been here so late, and the cashier seems to be scared of me.

Also, my appearance is indeed sloppy, messy hair, stubble, red eyes, dull eyes, I don't know that I think I'm a drug addict, which will make drug addicts come out to buy cigarettes to relieve their addiction.

In addition, my tone at the time was rather blunt, and the cashier girl cowered and handed me the money she found.

I glanced at her, and she instantly looked away.

I was a little embarrassed to take the money and turn around, if I stayed for a while, I was afraid that this girl would call the police directly.

It's strange, I touch my face, my image is so scary?

The streets are very calm, many of the shops on both sides of the road are closed, and only a cleaner is bending down to sweep the garbage from the road.

As for me, I just took a sip of beer with my head in my mouth and walked aimlessly towards the end of the street, where there was a main road that connected to the center of the city.

The street lamps on the side of the road shone brightly, and I walked alone down the street, the cleaner slowly getting closer and then slowly being left behind by me.

When I skimmed him I noticed that he was an old man who didn't look up at me, as if nothing could interest him, and he didn't care why I was walking down the street.

Who cares what you've done in a big city, and why you're here?

Nobody cares about you, but it's him? It's the same for everyone, no one will care about you, no one will care about you.

Like these stories of mine, if I don't tell them, no one will ever know.

The wind blowing in my face at night did make me feel a lot more comfortable, and the whole person was a little more sober.

I quickly stepped out of the street, and in front of me was a long main road with cars whizzing by.

I stopped, standing still and not knowing where to go.

So I stepped aside and sat on the curb, took out my phone and started scrolling through it.

I've been using this phone for more than three years, it's a very cheap phone, and it's not smooth at this time, even if you want to make a call, it's very troublesome to wait for it for a while.

My friends advised me to change my phone quickly, this thing should have been changed a long time ago, but I just didn't bother to change it, because I didn't have any requirements for my mobile phone, nothing more than to make a call or watch the news, these two things can be satisfied, why change the phone?

I began to unconsciously flip through the contacts in my phone, I swiped through the phone, many people, family, friends, relatives, and many, many messy water pipe unlocks.

What am I doing? I don't know, maybe I just want to talk to someone, but it's already half past one in the morning, almost two o'clock in the morning, and I'm basically asleep, who am I calling? Who can you call to?

Thinking about it, I unconsciously clicked on the contact information of the magpie in my hand.

I laughed dryly, the magpie should be sleeping at this time, right, it's better not to fight, go back.

Although I thought so in my head, I still clicked on the option to dial in my hand, and I looked at the page on the interface that was being dialed, and I panicked a little.

It felt like I was completely out of control at this time.

There's no way she's going to take it, how can she's going to take it?

I slowly lowered it to my ear and listened to the sound of the signal.

After about ten seconds, I put down my phone and was about to hang up.

At this time, the mobile phone suddenly vibrated for a moment, and then the call was connected.

"Hey. Why are you calling me at this point? What's the matter? ”

The magpie's languid voice came from the phone, probably woken up by me, but she was not angry, but surprised that I would call her.

"Hello? Whistling? What about people? Feed? ”

I put it in my ear and said, "Ah, you haven't slept yet?" ”

"Huh? I haven't slept yet, I was woken up by you, big brother, what's the matter in the middle of the night? ”

Her tone returned to normal, and she asked.

I also thought my words were a bit ridiculous, but I couldn't find anything to talk about, so I asked, "Well, have you gone back?" ”

"No, I still have a lot of things to deal with here, I'll go back in two days, what's wrong?"

I stood up and walked around at a loss.

"Oh, oh, it's nothing, thank you for today."

She giggled a few times on the phone: "I said you called me for this matter?" Early in the morning, at one o'clock, call me just to say thank you, are you okay? ”

"Of course. . . No.. I have one more thing. ”

"Ah, you say, what's the matter?"

I crouched on the ground anxiously and fiddled with the stones, whether I would say it or not? Damn Xiaochen, Xiaochen, if you don't say it again, are you still a man?

I'm scared of a hammer! Say!

I've just prepared the wording.

That image quickly flashed in my mind, and the strong sense of oppression immediately calmed me down.

I swallowed back the words I had just wanted to say.

"Forget it, or else. Next time, you can sleep first. ”

There was a pause on the phone, and then the magpie's complaint: "I said~ Is there such a thing as you play with people?" How can I sleep in the middle of the night? Hurry up and say something! ”

"It's really fine, I'm sorry to make you so late, let's talk about it next time."

Before she could speak, I hung up.

I sighed in frustration, then took the can of beer and drank it down.

On the side of the empty street, I squatted alone under the street lamp, lonely like a homeless man, completely abandoned by the whole society...

------ Ercheng found a lot of leaves and dead branches to hide Xiao Wu's body.

Yang Yuan watched all this silently and did not speak, and after a while, the magpie came over: "It's already dark, we have to go." ”

"Xiaochen, are you okay?" Yang Yuan looked at me and asked.

I nodded, "It's okay, I'm okay, let's go." ”

"Well, bring the night vision goggles, we need to hurry back, tonight night, we can go back."

I put the object that Xiao Wu gave me into the tactical vest, and patted it gently, and I will take it back.

I sat down and squatted next to Xiao Wu and shouted, "Little Wu! You get a good night's sleep first! Waiting for Brother Chen! You'll be home! ”

After shouting these words, I felt some comfort in my heart, and after getting up, I put the night vision device on my head and held the gun in my hand: "Let's go!" ”
