Chapter 53: Heroic and Cool, the Best of Us (8)
The first lazy afternoon, no matter how bright the sun shines today, it has nothing to do with us, at this moment, the surroundings are extremely quiet, only enjoyment.
After sweeping away the fatigue of the morning and sleeping enough, I opened my eyes and instantly felt that my eyes were bright, and the feeling of seeing the world was completely different, thanks to this lucky Mid-Autumn Festival.
I miss my relatives every festive season.
Some, homesick, or without any communication equipment.
"Bang la la......" outside the door, there is a continuous sound of water, curious poking out of the head, it turns out that everyone is washing their hair, but it should really be washed, these days of completely seamless training, free to rest, there is no time to wash hair.
So, I picked up the shampoo and followed in their footsteps, and it was in the courtyard, very close.
It's a reasonable way to follow the trend.
At this moment, the breeze is not dry, and the warm evening makes people's body and mind more comfortable, and even the pace is slowing down, and it may be a good thing to be able to stop in the busy life, but here, I hope that time can stay at this moment.
Enjoy the moment.
"Hi~" Alin walked up to me and said hello, and I replied in the same way.
This may be just a smile between classmates, polite, after all, our dormitory is not far away these days, but there is not much conversation.
Afterwards, we washed our hair side by side, just washing our hair, it turned out that it was really just a polite, greeting between classmates.
I wondered, was I acting too cold? Maybe I'll be a good friend if I take the initiative, but at this time, I really won't take the initiative.
Moreover, people are equal to each other, and how they choose is their own, and I don't want to take the initiative, this is my choice.
Let me take the initiative to speak, it is better to come and go by myself like this, after all, comfort is the most important thing.
Yes, in the past few days since I came home, I have always been alone, I don't feel lonely, I just feel embarrassed, I care about my image in the eyes of others, I am worried about the opinion of others when they see me, and I am also afraid of other people's strange eyes, no matter where I go, my eyes are always looking at the ground.
Don't dare to look at people, don't dare to look up.
The body is relaxed, but the heart is even more strange, questioning, confused, guessing, and low......
In short, I don't know what kind of feeling or mood laughter is the starting point.
No, it won't.
……
Suddenly, at this moment, a familiar horn sounded, transmitted to every corner of the military training base.
Outside the door, super punctual, hurriedly ran past a group of figures, inside the house, turned on the long-lost light, the dazzling moment, got rid of the dimness, at this time, just woke up and looked dazed roommate asked: "It's dawn?" ”
This...... I'm dazed.
But why do you suddenly remember the sound of the trumpet? Isn't it time to start assembling training again? This limited holiday is really short!
Besides, my hair hasn't dried yet......
That's the point, and it's also the distress that comes from having a lot of hair.
However, hair doesn't seem to be a reason to escape training, so it's tied at the back of the head very casually, and that's all.
Before walking out of the door, I didn't forget to respond: "It's night, and today is a holiday, but I don't know why the horn sounded, everyone is running, and now it should be time to gather." ”
After speaking, she walked out of the door, and the roommate in the door was still confused, but there was a sound of horses' hooves running, and she couldn't help but be confused, the fact is that she needs to gather quickly.
Otherwise, they are the ones who will be punished.
The roommates realized that they didn't have time to clean up, so they ran out directly, and ran like this in a daze.
The training ground next to the dormitory gathered, stood neatly, rested for a whole afternoon, everyone's mental state has changed significantly, even if it is night training, it is not a night training that is only busy dozing.
Today, it's like a lower motor that hasn't been able to meet electricity for a long time, and it's starting to endurance.
Long.
After the assembly, I waited for the instructor, but the instructor took out his usual microphone as if he had something important to announce, and looked at the momentum, as if he wanted to sing a song.
Everyone broke into a string and waited with bated breath, waiting for the instructor's order, curiosity and nervousness were written on everyone's faces, not knowing what task would be next, after all, the task would generally be very difficult.
"Don't be nervous, relax, I won't eat you again." As soon as the chief instructor spoke, he immediately changed to another appearance, the chief instructor who can joke, it's rare, it's also a limited version, and it's obviously a very healing word, and when he said it, he immediately had a sense of fear.
At the moment, intuition is a good thing.
The chief instructor put away the expression of the seller, and began to get into the topic and said: "Today I said that I will let you rest and I will definitely do it, there will be no night training, the evening activities are in the gymnasium, there is a basketball game, everyone will participate!" If you don't want to see it halfway, you can choose to leave on your own. ”
After speaking, there are happiness and depression.
After all, everyone has their own ideas, some people will complain, some people will be excited, and some people will not be painless, aiming to be a robot who obeys orders, which kind of life it belongs to.
For me, it's just a ball game, and I'm the best at being a spectator, so I started to go happily.
At first, the purpose of letting everyone go to the basketball game seemed to be to support the scene and avoid an embarrassing crisis. It's okay if you leave halfway.
This is very good, at least it is not a mandatory arrangement, so it can be seen that the chief instructor has also grown in the past few days.
This...... Of course, we can't let the chief instructor hear it, after all, the instructor wants to save face, and a private chat is enough, or it can be said that the chief instructor is familiar with us a lot.
It's no longer just a superior, it's like a friend, although we don't dare to take the initiative to talk to him, but we think so in our hearts.
……
Gym.
Line up to the audience, sit down, look down at the entire basketball court, unobstructed, the players also enter the court one after another, I don't know basketball, but I can also cheer or applaud with my classmates, successful shooting is a representative of victory.
Basketball novices, as long as they see the basket being shot, they will raise their hands and applaud warmly!
Looking at the players running on the field, I aroused a burst of envy, envy of their energy, there is a lot of age difference, but we are just like that old man, sitting here without any vitality, and even some of our classmates are about to fall asleep.
Just nodding yes and shaky.
Like a sloth, the movement is extremely slow, every time I open and close my eyes, it seems like a century has passed, and after that, it is difficult to open my closed eyes, it is very difficult, I look at them, not only are they a little sleepy.
But, didn't everyone have a break this afternoon? Or I didn't wake up, but why am I standing alone and standing exceptionally awake in the middle, out of place.
So, I slowly bent over and blended in with the ranks of my sleepy classmates, getting rid of this obvious C position, not wanting to be the focus.
Let's just think I'm sleepy.
During the intermission, many students seemed to only remember the instructor's words, and slipped out from one side, and I followed.
After all, if you don't understand it, you will find it boring, and it is just a personal opinion.
Looking back at the audience, there are only a few students left, scattered and still holding their ground, this is the students who really love basketball.
Persistence is the most important thing in everything, which is commendable.
……
No matter what happened yesterday, it will be in the past, and today we still have to look forward, and after the end of this small holiday, we will immediately return to the original training form, without any transition, and it will be the moment to take the right step.
Raise your tense legs and sway, and the instructor gives the order: "Don't move!" ”
It's contradictory.
How can this not be moved, but the requirements are indeed immovable, and the instructors are also exceptionally safe in their demonstrations, maybe practice makes perfect? It might be much better to practice more.
First the left foot, raised forward at the same level, and then there is no more, motionless.
Where is this positive step, it is clearly training personal balance, and balance is not inherent in everyone, I really can't hold on, just quietly put my feet lower, it will be much better.
Holding a fluke mentality, I stole a lot of laziness, but, a momentary fluke can not last long, nor is it my own true ability, when the final test results, no one can escape the instructor's eyes, or serious and down-to-earth efforts.
Focus on your legs, so that when you lift it up, it will be much more stable, and as long as you work hard enough, nothing will be difficult.
Between trainings.
Suddenly, the chief instructor came over with a serious face, looked around a few times in our class, pointed to a classmate and said, "You, and you!" Meet at the small square in front. ”
Everyone's eyes were cast on him, because the chief instructor said "And you!" ”
It's me.
After he finished speaking, he went to the next class and continued his inexplicable round.
I was stunned on the spot, what kind of strange procedure is this, and why me? The chief instructor didn't explain his intentions, which made people panic, didn't he make a mistake? I still need to call it out separately, and it's impossible.
Doubting oneself quickly began to think about it......
"Let's go!" The girl who was chosen with me came over and invited me to go with me, and I turned around, and the familiar face was Xin.
Again, my gut tells me that it's not a bad thing.
Although Xin is not very tall, he is not short either, I think he is choosing a tall person.
I came with her to the small square that the chief instructor said, and there were already many people waiting here, all of them girls, about the same height, all of them discussing curiously.
Everyone guessed that it was to choose a pacesetter.
I still have some understanding of the term pacesetter, that is, the students who walk at the forefront of the entire phalanx are the conductors and representatives.
So, we are candidates?!
It seems so.
My God, I couldn't believe it, I never thought I would have the opportunity to walk in front of the line, which is what I am used to standing in the back row.
If this is the case, then this opportunity must be seized.
Immediately after that, another group of people walked towards us, and the chief instructor seemed to have finished choosing, and the casual atmosphere instantly became serious, and no one dared to say a word.
The chief instructor's own aura can be described as extremely terrifying, and he has practiced a unified tacit understanding of everyone, that is, he automatically closes the microphone, stands upright, and looks ahead.
However, there was a moment when I glanced at the chief instructor's expression, and there was only a second of snickering?!
He actually laughed!
Then, we didn't dare to move even more, the domineering presidents in the TV series all smile like this, and as long as they smile, there is no good thing, commonly known as: calm before the storm.
At this moment, we were all terrified.
We stood in two rows facing each other, and the chief instructor paced back and forth, then held his cheeks and said, "Relax, don't be so nervous, listen to me first." ”
As soon as the chief instructor's words came out, the students were relieved, and the feeling of tensioning their whole body and mind was too uncomfortable, in fact, the chief instructor was really not so terrible, just the stereotyped thinking of the first impression.
"I chose you to come here today for the final parade performance, and I need to choose four female pacesetters, first move the activity, and then stand in a military posture for a preliminary investigation." Is it a delusion? The current chief instructor was a little gentle, and his tone became much kinder.
Is it because of facing so many girls?
But, no.
After the simple activity, the chief instructor really changed his face in a second, and his serious eyes immediately killed him, which was familiar and terrifying.
At this time, everyone standing here straightened their bodies, not daring to act rashly, for fear that one would be accidentally out, since there is this rare opportunity to be a pacesetter in the election, of course it must be cherished.
"You, you, and you...... Let's go back. "At the beginning, several people were eliminated, and as soon as they came, they went back the same way.
When leaving, some regrets, some are happy, and those who stay are also, students who don't want to run for the pacesetter, shrugged their shoulders slightly, and they were immediately eliminated as they wished.
Xin left the first batch and returned to the team directly, and we were the only ones left in the entire platoon, so I must fight for myself, even if I don't fight for the class, I also fight for myself, I can't always be a little transparent, so many years of small transparent life, is it a habit?
You can't put a ceiling on yourself at any time in life, maybe I can.
So, I showed this strength again, and stood as strong as a steel wall with my head raised, with a determined look in my eyes, indicating my attitude.
It's for the pacesetter's seat.
Immediately after rounds of elimination, there are not many personnel left, rest for a while, just a simple glance, the surrounding candidates are all people with super good looks and excellent temperament, except for the height of the level, I don't know what advantages I have, can it?
I fell into doubt......
However, we still have to continue to persevere, after all, it is not the last moment, and no one knows what the result will be.
There are few lucky fruits, but why can't this person who gets the fruits be me?! Although I have never been lucky since I was a child.
After all, this is an opportunity for fair competition, and the chief instructor is personally elected, and the chief instructor must have a high level of experience, so it must be absolutely fair.
Trust his vision.
Before the results are fully out, it is possible for me and the girls present.
Expect the next miracle!
