In fact, the context of the matter is very simple, when the life of a person who is self-interested by nature is threatened, he will not take a dishonorable way to protect himself under lenient conditions.

If there is a way to protect oneself and make people feel that he is a person who cares about the overall situation and loves others, then the self-interested person will naturally choose to do so easily and happily.

Most of these marchers were cowards, and they knew that it was an extremely difficult thing to confront the Celestial Wolf Civilization, destined to be stained with the blood of countless humans, and they did not have the courage to sacrifice themselves.

On the Internet, it is possible to shout slogans of rebellion and defend their homeland without fear, but soon people start to focus on practical matters, and they have to come out and make some statements.

The United Earth Defense Force (EDF) has officially started recruiting new recruits two months ago, and those cowards naturally don't have the guts to play seriously.

So a way to get the best of both worlds was born, that is, the parade, wrapped in the old people and children as a cover, and fooled a small number of aspiring young people such as Wu Hao who had not yet been given the opportunity and were enthusiastic.

The meaningless march is just to show an attitude, which is both clear and has nothing to say, and what is even more hateful is that they want to let the real, who don't like to talk more and are more willing to do practical things, hold up the sky that is about to fall.

At this time, Wu Hao remembered what he had done before, and he was not happy at all, but fortunately, his mother appeared in time, he was not a person who liked to be used, and even hated being used.

"Son, come, I haven't been home for a month, and I'm very busy with my studies, right?" Hao Wenqing asked softly.

Wu Hao lowered his head in shame, since the alien threat has increasingly occupied people's field of vision, although the official is trying to maintain the original order, it is inevitable that many changes will occur.

Very few people in school can calm down and learn, and everyone knows that learning is right, but not necessarily useful.

If human society cannot be preserved, learning how to operate a machine is far less important than running and exercising.

The teachers in the school are still sticking to the normal curriculum, but from their affection, they are only barely holding on.

Everyone is worried about the future of humanity, at least their own, wondering if what follows makes sense and weighs what is needed.

"Mom, I want to tell you something." Wu Hao put down his chopsticks, stared at his mother's eyes and said seriously.

"What's the matter?" It was the first time Hao Wenqing had seen his son's expression so serious.

In the next few days, the commissioners of the United Earth Defense Force will come to the school, they will set up a recruiting point, the university is the last stop, the last sequence, the students here are all adults, but they are the youngest and most energetic group of adults.

Putting these hopes for the future on the battlefield is a last resort, the last choice, and the confrontation between two civilizations will be a fierce battle, and these young people are the seeds for the rebuilding of human society after the end of the war.

Wu Hao wanted to sign up for the army, and although he was an adult and had the right to decide what to do for himself, he felt the need to ask his mother for advice.

After the end of the war, the seeds of hope must be won first, otherwise hope does not exist, maybe most of the people who existed at that time were cowardly, but the heroic people still have to be fools at the forefront.

"Smack~"

The tofu on Hao Wenqing's chopsticks fell on the table, knowing her son's nature, it was not a surprise that she heard this sudden news, but she couldn't avoid being at a loss.

"No way!" Hao Wenqing subconsciously shouted.

Wu Hao looked at his mother, who was very responsive, silent, his eyes were extremely firm, just like his father.

"Mom, if my father finds out, he will definitely support me!"

"No, it doesn't matter what your father said."

Wu Hao put down his chopsticks, and he understood that his mother was worried that he would lose his life if he was in danger.

"But I have the final say, I can volunteer for the army, and I don't need your signature."

That's right, it's not a homework, it's his choice of life, it's up to him, it's up to him.

"Brother! I am back! ”

Wu Hao's younger sister Wu Qian, who was in elementary school, came in from outside the door with her schoolbag on her back, and when she saw that her brother was also there, she excitedly threw off her schoolbag and shoes and pounced on her brother.

"Wu Qian, why did you run back at noon today?"

"The aunts in the cafeteria have all resigned, and the school doesn't care about food, so they can only go home to eat."

"Qianqian, you play with your brother, I'll go cook some more food." Hao Wenqing got up and entered the kitchen and locked the door from the inside.

She picked up the kitchen knife and tried to cut a radish, but her vision was so confused that she couldn't touch it cleanly.

Tears finally left from the corners of her eyes, she didn't want Wu Hao to join the army, and she thought with her fingers about fighting aliens whose technology was far away from mankind, and she also knew that this was a vicious battle, her son was more ambitious than others, but he couldn't change the fact that life was fragile.

"Brother, mom bought me some new toys, can you play with me?" Wu Qian leaned on her brother and said coquettishly.

"Good...... Okay......" Wu Hao said absentmindedly, staring in the direction of the kitchen.

"Brother, have you listened to me?" Wu Qian tugged at Wu Hao's ears dissatisfied.

"Ah, sister, my brother will have to go back to school in a while, will I play with you next time?"

"Ah~ Okay, my brother's words count!" Wu Qian got off her brother in disappointment, she ran to her desk, took a pen and wrote a line of handwriting crookedly.

"Sign!"

Wu Hao took his sister's note, on which was a note that owed his sister a promise to play together, and there was a blank space for a signature at the back.

"Brother, sign quickly!" Wu Qian urged

"Okay, I'll sign." Wu Hao was forced to sign his name on the IOU that was born out of thin air, and looking at his sister who happily stuffed the IOU into his pencil case, he felt that he had made the right choice.

As a human being, there is always something that needs to be protected, and there is always something that needs to be born, otherwise, life will be boring.

Hao Wenqing came out of the kitchen, holding a plate of carrots and fried shredded pork, without showing any emotion, what he couldn't hide was the redness in the corners of his eyes.

"Come, Qianqian eat, I'll talk to your brother about something"

Wu Qian sat at the dining table obediently, picked up chopsticks and put vegetables in her mouth little by little.

Hao Wenqing and Wu Hao came to the living room, she grabbed her son's arm and asked softly, "Are you really going?"

"Yes, it's not just for all of humanity, it's for Qianqian and you, including my father, and he's the same."

"Well, I respect your decision." Hao Wenqing took a deep breath, Wu Hao should have her own choice, she can't control it.

"Mom, I have to go back to school, hello and rest."

After Wu Hao said goodbye to his mother, he sorted out his belongings, and the next time he came back, he might be wearing a military uniform, carrying the nine-star global battle emblem belonging to the Earth United Defense Army, to compete for the glory that belonged to him Wu Hao.
