Chapter 16: Self-blame
Under the expectant gaze of so many people, Lei Zheng was stunned for a while. Lei Zheng wanted to respond to their expectations, but Lei Zheng didn't want to deceive them.
At this time, Zhao Shinan stepped forward.
"That's right, we were sent by the military department."
Zhao Shinan's answer made many people laugh happily because they saw the hope of going home.
"Can we go home now?"
Zhao Shinan was silent, and the mood of the masses changed and became uneasy.
"Why? Hasn't the enemy been defeated yet? ”
"Yes."
"Then when will we defeat the enemy and let us return to our old lives?"
……
Facing the questions of many people, Zhao Shinan pursed her lips.
"I'm sorry, but it's not yet certain."
This sorry made more than 200 people in the supermarket fry, and more questioning questions followed.
Lei Zheng saw that Zhao Shinan couldn't resist it, so he hurriedly stood up to appease the crowd.
"Everyone, be quiet, everyone, everyone, please listen to what I Lei Zheng says."
Seeing that the crowd had finally quieted down, he tried hard to persuade him.
"I know everyone wants to go home, and I'm in the same mood as everyone else, but it's useless to be anxious, right? Five of our people's fighters have just experienced a life-and-death struggle with terrorists, and the life and death of one soldier are unknown. Their dedication, their courage, I can attest. I hope that you will be a little more patient and continue to wait, because our government will never allow terrorists to do whatever they want, nor will it remain indifferent to the disaster facing its own people, and I am here to assure you. Please give more patience to our government and our people's army, okay! ”
After saying all the rest of the words in one go, Lei Zheng himself felt incredible, he didn't expect that he still had the talent for speech.
Lei Zheng's words appeased most of the people, after all, most people trust their saviors.
However, not everyone eats Lei Zheng's words.
"Is it guaranteed to work? Is it guaranteed to destroy the enemy? I've had enough! I never want to be in this dirty, cramped, stuffy space again. I'm going to get out of here, I'm going home, and no one is going to stop me. ”
A middle-aged man became even more excited after hearing this, and walked out of his mouth as he spoke.
"Wait, brother! Don't get excited! Don't be impulsive! Lei Zheng didn't expect this scene to happen, but he still subconsciously grabbed the middle-aged man.
"You let go." The middle-aged man angrily scolded Lei Zheng and asked Lei Zheng to let him go.
"Brother, it's really very dangerous outside, there are quite a few wild beasts wandering around, you can't go out! Please give us a little more time so that we can go home together when the army captures the terrorists. Lei Zheng pleaded.
"Give you time and you'll be able to figure it out? Do you really think of yourself as a savior? Let it go! Otherwise, don't blame me for being unkind. However, the middle-aged man did not take Lei Zheng seriously.
The middle-aged man's words made Lei Zheng silent and depressed. That's right, he is not a savior, and he is not capable of being a savior, and even then he doesn't want a middle-aged man to go out and die in vain.
"I can let go, brother, you must be calm! Don't go out! We were safest to stay here. ”
Lei Zheng let go of the middle-aged man, but the middle-aged man didn't appreciate it and insisted on going out.
"Brother, brother!"
Lei was about to follow, but was pulled by Fang Fang.
"What do you care about this kind of person? If he wants to die, let him go, his life is his own. ”
Fang Fang is most unaccustomed to this kind of wolf-hearted person.
"Fang Fang, don't pull me! You know how dangerous it is out there, and I can't just watch him go out. ”
Lei Zheng was anxious to break free, but he was grabbed tightly by Fang Fang.
"I'm not going to let you do anything to me."
As soon as Fang Fang's stubborn temper came, not only did he not let go, but he also hugged it with both hands.
"You! ...... Ay! ”
Lei Zheng stared at Fang Fang, he couldn't be angry, it was definitely wrong to sprinkle his anger on others. Lei Zheng was very helpless, so he was in a stalemate with Fang Fang.
After about two minutes, Fang Fang let go, "Okay, you can go." ”
The moment Fang Fang let go, Lei Zheng immediately rushed out, he hoped that the middle-aged man hadn't gone far yet. However, to Lei Zheng's disappointment, no matter how he looked for it and shouted the middle-aged man, he never showed up.
Lei Zheng returned to Jiale Supermarket sullenly, and several people he knew, including Uncle Wang in a wheelchair, were waiting for him to come back.
"Lei Zheng, are you okay?" Uncle Wang said with concern.
Ray is trying to squeeze out a smile, "I'm fine." ”
This is far-fetched, so that a few people should not be good.
"By the way, Mengmeng, a few soldiers just now were injured, please bandage them." Lei Zheng turned to Meng Meng and said.
"Good!" Meng Meng nodded.
After Lei Zheng finished speaking, he walked to the corner alone and squatted down with his head in his hands. He felt very remorseful, maybe he shouldn't let Zhao Shinan and the five people contact the people, so that there would not be the dispute just now, and it would not make the five Zhao Shinan who lost their comrades even more uncomfortable.
