Chapter Twenty-Six: We and the Sun
After I went back, I stayed in the confinement room for more than half a month, and I don't know why I was allowed to stay for more than half a month, there is no reason, in the confinement room, I only fold quilts, eat, and exercise every day.
The news of my return spread very quickly, and the comrades-in-arms of a detachment came to see me all right, and said a few words to me through the window, and I always felt very warm, and a soldier who usually had a good relationship with Wang Li asked me where Wang had left, and I shook my head and lied to him that I didn't know about it.
Anyway, Wang Li is equivalent to disappearing in the army, no one is talking about him, let alone talking about this matter behind his back, even if someone talks about it, the older soldiers will slap it over, and the task I performed and Wang Li's whereabouts have become a taboo in this camp, and no one wants to talk about it.
This is also the rule that Captain Xu personally made, and this is what I learned later, they are all young soldiers, and they are tired from training for a day, and they must definitely talk about some topics that can stir the nerves before lying in bed, which is unavoidable.
I sometimes think about how Wang Li is now, and subconsciously worry, the army also picked an excellent sniper from other units to fill Wang Li's vacancy, he slept on the bed where Wang Li once slept, every night I listened to the snoring sound of the upper bunk and was a little trance, I thought Wang Li was back again.
I just got back into the team, training, eating, resting every day, and for more than a month, my injuries were completely healed.
During the period, the team leader often asked me to do ideological work for me, in short, it was Wang Li's business, so that I don't have any psychological burden, I have more than half a year left to retire from the army, and under normal circumstances, I will not be allowed to go out on a mission again, anyway, the training with peace of mind will be over.
In fact, what he said is also nonsense, even if I have a burden now, I can't do anything, I can't know what happened to Wang Li in the end, no matter how much I worry about it, it won't make any difference, it's better not to think about these things, just finish the new practice with peace of mind.
By the way, speaking of which, I have to mention that Captain Xu recommended me to go to a military school before, of course, it is not surprising that it is in vain, and there is no suspense about this.
The captain can only choose a non-commissioned officer in our unit who is more convenient and excellent, anyway, it is none of my business, even if there is this opportunity, it is impossible to give it to me, don't even think about it, this is inevitable.
I still serve as an observer for the newly transferred sniper, and his comprehensive ability is not much worse than Wang Li, otherwise why do I say that the special forces really do not lack talents, and it is impossible to tolerate waste in the army of two million, even if it is waste, it will force you out of the value of a waste, and then let you do what is suitable for you, so talents in all aspects are in demand no matter where they are.
This sniper's name is Hu Yitian, a very interesting name, I sometimes jokingly ask him what is the relationship with Hu Yidao, he fights with me haha, a very interesting person, I am a soldier of the same year, I have participated in many anti-drug missions with the border armed police before, and the performance is very good, so I was taken by the Xu brigade, so I dug it up.
In the afternoon of that day, more than a dozen of our sniper teams conducted run-in training at the sniper training ground as usual.
Hu played normally for a day, and the target of 800 meters hit accurately as the gunshots rang out.
"Hit the target," I said.
As soon as the words fell, I put down the observation scope and said to Hu Tiantian: "You are comparable to that kid." ”
So he asked, "Which boy?" ”
I reacted and said, "It's nothing, just go ahead." ”
After saying this, I squatted up and adjusted the observation mirror and moved my body by the way, at this time I saw a car on the main road of the camp on the left slowly driving towards the inside of our troops, I just subconsciously looked over, and found that the sign on the door of this car was not the sign of our troops.
"What are you looking at?"
"A warrior car." I said.
"Tsk, what's so nice about the warrior car, we don't have all of them!"
"Whistling! Any questions? Behind him came the voice of the squad leader, who was standing on a high platform behind him to supervise the training of the various sniper teams.
I said, "Report, no problem." ”
"Keep training!"
"Yes!"
I got down and picked up the goggles and said, "This car is different, it's not like our troops, and I've never seen the sign on the door." ”
We are also considered a secrecy unit here, even if other troops have something to do, they have to stop at the gate to receive them, and the one who drives in directly may definitely be some kind of leader.
"Cut, what does it have to do with us?"
Hu Yitian pulled the bolt of the gun: "Help me observe!" ”
I said yes, what does it have to do with me when someone comes? So I picked up the scope and continued to observe.
It was only about half an hour before the team leader's walkie-talkie rang, and he replied: "Yes!" ”
"Whistling!"
After hearing this, I put down my scope and stood up from the ground: "Here! ”
"That, Captain called you! Let's take a trip! Run past! ”
I didn't understand what was going on, but I still stood upright: "Yes!" ”
I turned and trotted out to the back, having a hunch all the way, but still uncertain.
In ten minutes, I arrived at the captain's office, and the guard was standing at the door, only listening to what was being laughed and said inside.
I took a deep breath and reached out and knocked on the door.
"Come in!" The voice of the Xu Brigade came.
I pushed open the door and walked in, and the moment I entered, the first thing that surprised me was a familiar figure, she also turned around at this time, it was a magpie!
"Oh, this kid is here!" The captain looked at me with a smile and said.
"Thank you, Uncle Xu!" The magpie shouted happily at the captain.
Uncle? What is the origin of this magpie? How can you get in touch with our captain?
The captain turned his head to look at me: "People came to see you from so far away, you have such an expression like eating?" ”
I was embarrassed and didn't know what to say, how did this woman find her?
I looked at the magpie: "You, why are you here?" Can I help you? ”
The magpie just wanted to speak.
"Hey, I found out that you are just with wood, what can you do, go out, take Xiaohua for a walk."
The captain said to me with hatred that iron is not made of steel.
I was very embarrassed, I was really happy to have the magpie coming, but if I went out, I wouldn't have to let everyone see it, and the next day I probably knew that there was a girl who came all the way to me, and all kinds of rumors came out.
With the permission of the captain, we walked out of the camp side by side, and this road was definitely an eye-catching existence, strange, all of them stared at us as if they had never seen them, and a few goods shouted from afar: "Dust!" Be sure to come back in the evening! We're waiting for you to report on the results! "And then there was all sorts of heckling.
I laughed and ignored them, and the magpie covered her mouth and chuckled, looking like a shy little girl at first glance.
I was not deceived by her actions, and I said that this group of birdmen must have been deceived by the appearance of magpies, and this woman was murderous when she didn't blink, and I had to be inferior, after all, I saw her ruthlessness when she was in the border forest.
When he walked out of the gate, the sentry said happily: "Squad leader, the captain told me, come back early, don't run too far." ”
I still didn't speak, because I felt embarrassed to say anything at this time.
After I walked out, I gradually relaxed a little, I was so nervous, really, this feeling of being stared at by so many people was really uncomfortable, and I didn't want to go through it for the second time in my life.
"You, how did you find it?" I still couldn't help but ask curiously.
The magpie is very happy, after all, the scenery here is still very good, there are mountains and rivers everywhere, and this trail is also the only way we usually train.
"My father knew your captain, so he agreed after saying so, but I came to see you, how about it, be happy! Surprise! ”
Sure enough, as I thought, this woman's father is definitely not an ordinary person, and this time it should be his driver who drove the magpie in a military vehicle.
The magpie was dressed very casually this time, and when I saw her jumping and jumping next to me, I knew that her injuries were already healed.
At this time, the brothers of the cooking class drove past us in a car and pulled the goods, and honked their horns at me, and several of the guys inside were grinning and looking at me.
I could only wave at them.
When I walked down a little further, I came to the place where the people around me lived, so I pulled her and said, "Follow me." ”
She didn't speak, just let me pull me, and I pulled the magpie along the path to the place where we used to laze during training, which was a valley.
"Your scenery is really good, not like in the border, poor mountains and bad waters."
The magpie said as she sat down on a rock, and she looked up at me, then moved to the side to make room for me.
"Come here!"
I sat down, and as soon as I sat down, she reached out and grabbed my arm: "You lame, I thought you would be fired." ”
I smiled and said, "Hey, even if I don't fire me, I'll be discharged from the army in more than half a year, no difference." ”
"That's right, these are two different things, aren't you ashamed to be expelled from the military?"
I didn't want to talk about this, so I changed the subject: "How about your injury, it's a penetrating injury." I asked worriedly.
"It's been fine for a long time, my intestines were almost broken, but I survived."
"That's good, did you come here to see me?"
"Nonsense, of course, I'm free during this time, but I'm here to see you, in case you are discharged from the army, I don't know where to look for it."
In my heart, after all, there is a right father in human nature, and it is convenient to find anyone who wants to find it, and there is no constraint.
"By the way, I have good news, I have two months to go." Magpie said.
"Oh? Where to go? I asked.
"It's not clear yet, but my injuries don't allow me to continue working in the Security Service anyway."
As the sun shifted to the west, the light dimmed a little, and instead of a mission, the magpie and I sat next to each other and suddenly didn't know what to say.
The magpie didn't care, she rested her head on my shoulder, and very obediently did not speak, nothing serious.
Then there was silence, so quiet that I could only hear my own breathing and heartbeat.
"Your heart is beating so fast."
The magpie said suddenly.
"Because I am alive"
"Hmph, you're a lame man in my eyes."
I asked, "When are you leaving, it will be dark in a while." ”
She said, "Stay a little longer, and finally agree to let me come." ”
In a corner of a mountainous area, a man and a woman snuggled together to watch the waning sun that was about to set, the image was frozen like a stopped timeline, just as they thought in their hearts, time slowed down at this moment.
