The next morning, Kang Ming and the others all changed into regular clothes, put on military hats, and stood neatly in front of the squadron's duty garage with leather shoes on board.

Gu Qiang, the political commissar and the assistant to the captain came to the front of the queue.

"Today is the day to send our comrade-in-arms Gao Tian away, I know that everyone wants to send him, but we must leave a squad of fighters on duty.... Kang Ming! After Gu Qiang finished speaking, he twisted his head towards Kang Ming and shouted.

"Here!" Kang Ming took a step forward and replied with his head tilted.

"Your squad stays on duty!"

"Yes!"

After Gu Qiang's voice fell, a bus came to the door, and then ordered the rest of the people to board the bus.

Kang Ming: The five of them stayed where they were, standing straight and watching them leave.

The bus drove away, and Kang Ming and the others returned to the dormitory, changed into training uniforms, and went to the duty garage to clean and scrub the fire-fighting equipment.

The squadron was quiet, and there was only the sound of a few of them clanging and placing equipment, which made Wang Junfeng very uncomfortable.

"Hey, let's go to training." Wang Junfeng put down the water gun head in his hand and said to Kang Ming.

Kang Ming raised his head and glanced at Wang Junfeng: "Now the entire squadron is just one of our duty squads, so let's save some effort." ”

......

Gu Qiang sat on the bus and looked out the window with his head sideways.

"Are the High Heaven's parents here?" The political commissar asked Xu Liang.

"Here he is, and so is his wife, who has not yet come through the door." Xu Liang replied in a low voice.

The commissar nodded.

The bus arrived at the funeral home after traveling for almost two hours.

After the car stopped, Gu Qiang walked out of the car with all the soldiers.

After getting out of the car, Gu Qiang looked around left and right, saw Gao Tian's mother, and walked over.

Gao Tian's mother didn't have any expression on her face, there were just tears in her eyes, but she didn't cry like others, the more Gu Qiang was scared. He was afraid that Gao Tian's mother was carrying the pain of losing her son in her heart.

Gu Qiang came to Gao Tian's mother and stopped.

Gu Qiang opened his mouth but didn't know what to say, how to speak?

Gao Tian's mother took a step back after seeing Gu Qiang: "You are Gu Qiang?" Mother Gao Tian asked tentatively.

Gu Qiang nodded: "It's me, I'm Gu Qiang." ”

"I'd love to ask you, why would you let my son go on such a dangerous mission before he was discharged from the army? What's going on in your mind? Gao Tian's mother's voice was not loud but enough for some people around her to hear, and she asked Gu Qiang unabashedly, one by one like a sharp dagger piercing Gu Qiang's chest.

Gu Qiang was stunned, he didn't know how to go back to this mother's question.

The political commissar walked in: "Auntie, Comrade Gao Tian is a hero, and we are all ready to sacrifice when we choose to step into this ranks, the reason why we often put ourselves in danger is because we are veterans, and we can't let new recruits enter under special circumstances..."

Gao Tian's mother shook her hand at the political commissar: "Don't say anything, you will stand here and say some official words and some big truths, I don't know anything else now, I know that my son is dead, he will never be able to open his eyes, and the incense of our family is broken here." Gao Tian's mother was a little overly emotional, and shouted at Gu Qiang and the political commissar.

Gu Qiang stood there from beginning to end without saying a word of rebuttal or explaining for himself.

Squeak squeak! A few cars came and parked outside the funeral home.

The door opened, and the captain and some local government leaders walked over.

Gu Qiang walked over and stood up and gave a military salute.

"Captain!"

"Well, is it all arranged?" The captain said with a very heavy expression on his face.

"It's all arranged."

"Okay, let's get started!" After the captain finished speaking, he walked in.

Gao Tian lay quietly among the flowers, wearing a military uniform and a military hat, the expression on his face was very peaceful and serene, and the captain looked at Gao Tian with a little sour eyes.

Turning around, he motioned for everyone to come in.

The soldiers, the government leaders, Gao Tian's parents and the wife who had not passed through the door all walked in.

"In the 9.13 mission, our comrade-in-arms Comrade Gao Tian unfortunately died, and I was very heartbroken when I learned the news. But when I heard that Comrade Gao Tian saved a young child with his own body, I was very relieved, because Comrade Gao Tian proved his loyalty to the people with his actions, and Comrade Gao Tian proved the mission of firefighters with his actions! The captain stood at the front of the queue and spoke loudly.

"The safety of the people is our wake-up call, even if it is an abyss ahead, we have no regrets, because our name is: China Fire Protection!" After the captain said this sentence very hard, he gave a military salute to everyone.

"Let's go in for a while.... Let's get inside! "There was a commotion outside the funeral home.

Everyone turned their heads out of the door, only to see a dense group of people walking here, and the security guards in front of them could no longer control these people.

The captain nodded at Gu Qiang and motioned for him to go out and see what was going on.

Gu Qiang immediately ran out.

"Everyone, be quiet, be quiet!" Gu Qiang stood on the steps and scolded loudly.

The crowd slowly quieted down, and two people, a man and a woman, at the front of the crowd, looked at Gu Qiang and shouted: "Comrade firefighter, we are the owner of the house that caught fire, we are here to send the hero, please let us go in and see what he looks like!" The woman knelt on the ground as she spoke.

Seeing this, Gu Qiang hurriedly ran two steps and walked in front of the woman and helped her up.

"Is your daughter alright?" Gu Qiang asked in a low voice.

"It's okay, you can be discharged from the hospital after two days of rest."

"That's good, you want to deliver...."Gu Qiang asked them by pointing behind him.

"Yes, we really want to see what he looks like, he's our benefactor, and we want to wait until our daughter grows up to tell her about it." The woman said to Gu Qiang while wiping her tears.

Gu Qiang frowned: "Then you wait a minute, I'll go and ask for instructions!" After Gu Qiang finished speaking, he turned around and returned to the hall.

came to the captain's side and leaned into his ear to report the situation outside one by one, and the captain nodded to Gu Qiang after listening: "Just let the two of them come in, there are too many people and it's a little messy." ”

"Yes!"

After getting the order of the captain, Gu Qiang walked out and entered the hall with a man and a woman.

Coming to the hall, the two of them rushed to the body of Gao Tian like crazy.

Thump! Thump! One of them fell to their knees.
