Kang Ming looked at Xu Liang, Gu Sihan, Sun Lu and his favorite mother in front of him very seriously.

Attention! Salute!

"I know that during the time I was in a coma, you were all worried about me, Mom, you and Sihan, the two of you have been guarding outside the ward day and night, you have worked hard! Squad leader, you have been taking care of my mother for me, thank you! Kang Ming said these words very seriously.

Xu Liang returned the salute to Kang Ming.

"Good brother, you are good."

Kang Ming pursed his lips and nodded vigorously, and finished his salute.

"I really want to repay you for your love for me, but I'm going back to the team again, I'm sorry Mom, I can't stay with you. I'm sorry Sihan, I can't stay and take care of you. Kang Ming's eyes were filled with tears and he said to the two women he loved.

Sihan ran and hugged Kang Ming.

Lying on Kang Ming's chest, he cried bitterly: "I know, I know you still have your things to do, I only hope you can promise me one thing." Take care of yourself, don't let me come to the hospital, I really don't want to be here anymore. ”

"Don't worry, I'll take care of myself."

After separating from Gu Sihan, Kang Ming came to his mother, and knelt directly in front of his mother with a plop.

Mother wanted to pull Kang Ming up, but Kang Ming refused.

Kneeling in front of his mother: "Mom, I'm sorry!" After saying that, he knocked his head twice.

At this time, his mother was already in tears, and she couldn't cry, and Kang Ming stood up from the ground.

"Take care of yourself, Mom, take care of yourself, Sihan, I'm leaving." After Kang Ming finished speaking, he turned around and put his backpack on his back, and walked out without looking back.

He didn't dare to look back, he was afraid that if he turned back, his mother would see his tears, and when he opened the door of the ward, he saw Liu Zhiqiang who came to pick him up.

Liu Zhiqiang took off the backpack from Kang Ming's shoulder.

The two men stepped out.

I took the elevator all the way downstairs, and standing downstairs, Kang Ming looked up and found that there was no one by the window: "Let's go!" He said to Liu Zhiqiang, opened the car door and went in.

When they got into the car, the faces of their mother and Sihan were all exposed in the window.

They watched as the fire truck left the hospital and disappeared into the busy streets.

"Auntie, are you alright?" Xu Liang asked tentatively.

Kang Ming's mother took out a handkerchief from her pocket, wiped her tears, turned her head and waved her hand at Xu Liang: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm used to it." ”

This is a firefighter, an ordinary firefighter, they also have family members, parents, lovers, and people who need to take care of themselves, but they can only bury this guilt in their hearts, because the motherland needs them, and the people of the motherland need them.

Kang Ming drove back to the gate of the squadron, and the guards at the guard box saluted Kang Ming to welcome him back.

After stopping the car, Liu Zhiqiang and Kang Ming walked down one after another.

Thundered! After getting out of the car, all the doors of the garage on duty were opened at the same time.

Behind each door stood several warriors, and as the shutter slowly rose, the smiling faces of the warriors were all revealed.

Bang Bang Bang! Everyone applauded and clapped to welcome Kang Ming.

Kang Ming was moved by the scene in front of him, and there were many faces in front of him.

Gu Qiang stretched out his hand and interrupted everyone's applause.

"All of them, assemble!" With Gu Qiang's order, the soldiers quickly stood in a row, and Liu Zhiqiang also ran over.

Gu Qiang waved his hand at Kang Ming, and Kang Ming ran to Gu Qiang's side to stand upright.

"Today is the day when Comrade Kang Ming of our Eighth Squadron returns to the team, and I welcome you on behalf of all the commanders and fighters of the Eighth Squadron!"

Bang Bang Bang! There was another round of applause.

Kang Ming can only use the highest etiquette of a soldier - military salute! to express my gratitude to my comrades.

"It just so happened that Kang Ming came, and I announced one thing. Regarding the 1.28 incident, the superiors commended our Eighth Squadron, and gave our Eighth Squadron a first-class meritorious service, of course, we also sacrificed two comrades-in-arms in that mission, they are Qian Guo and Xu Chao, we must not forget these people, we must not forget their sacrifices for this country and the people. ”

Gu Qiang stood in front of the queue and said loudly.

"The new year has begun, in this year I only want to be a living warrior, not a sacrifice of heroes, I wish everyone a safe and peaceful new year. This year, the corps will add a team of eight contract firefighters to us, and they will soon come to us to report, I hope not to bully people because they are contract firefighters, whether it is for money or for anything, as long as they wear firefighting clothes, they are comrades-in-arms and brothers. ”

"Do you get it?" Gu Qiang asked loudly.

"Understood!"

The crowd replied with a chorus of chanting.

"Okay, one more thing. Kang Ming! ”

"Here!"

"From now on, you will be the leader of the first combat squad."

"Yes!"

"Wang Junfeng!"

"Here!"

"You are the deputy squad leader of the first combat squad."

"Yes!"

"Ge Liang!"

"Here!"

"From today onwards, you will first act as the leader of the fifth combat squad."

"Yes!"

..... Gu Qiang stood there and began to make a new assignment to the class, Liu Zhiqiang and they were a little disappointed when they heard that their squad leader was no longer Kang Ming, after all, Kang Ming had already become a habit in their hearts, and Kang Ming was also familiar with their personalities, which was difficult for everyone to accept when they suddenly changed their squad leader.

Liu Zhiqiang wanted to question Gu Qiang, but was stopped by Zhao Shuyong: "Shhh Zhao Shuyong said with a wink.

"Zhao Shuyong, Liu Zhiqiang, what are you two doing?" How could this escape Gu Qiang's eyes.

"Report to the captain, it's okay!" Zhao Shuyong replied loudly.

Creak! A fire inspection vehicle and a bus drove outside the squadron.

The two cars stopped, the captain and the political commissar walked down from the car, and Gu Qiang ran over quickly to salute.

"Captain, Commissar!" Yell.

Two people returned the salute.

"I've brought you the best contract firefighters." The captain's tone was a little reluctant, and after speaking, he waved his hand at the bus behind him.

The door opened, and out came ten men, all of whom had joined the fire department last year and had been training at the corps.

They came to Gu Qiang, put down their backpacks, and stood up for a military salute.

Gu Qiang hurriedly returned the gift: "Everyone is welcome!" Said loudly.

Bang Bang Bang! The fighters applauded.

Then Gu Qiang found a few fighters and took the new fighters to the dormitory, and the rest of the people should be trained for training, rest for rest, and on duty for duty, and everything returned to normal life.

Kang Ming was surrounded by Wang Junfeng and returned to the dormitory of the first class.

When I came to the dormitory, I saw that the bed by the door had my name tag hung on it: "Where is Xu Liang's bed?" Kang Ming asked Wang Junfeng.

Wang Junfeng exhaled and did not answer.
