I can't imagine that in this world, there is such a far ideological gap between citizens and civilians.

This inexplicable arrogance and prejudice made Wang Hao a little confused.

In this state where you look down on me and I look down on you, you can still maintain social order and stability, I have to say that those in power have done a good job.

"So they put me here to scare you boys. Look here. The sergeant turned his chair so that Wang Hao could see more clearly that he was a legless gentleman, "Assuming you are not sent to dig a tunnel on the moon, or you don't have the slightest ability, you will simply be treated as a laboratory animal to test a new vaccine." Assuming none of this happens, you really become warriors. Look at me, this is probably what you're going to do, if you don't die completely and get your mom and dad a 'very sorry' telegram. The latter is more likely, because by now, whether in training or actual combat, there will not be many wounded. If you are completely dead, they will throw you in a coffin. I'm a rare exception, and I'm lucky, although you might think I've been unlucky to get home. ”

The sergeant paused for a moment and then said, "So, you'd better go home." Go to college, then become a scientist, or an insurance salesman, whatever. Serving in the military is not participating in a summer camp, and a real military career is difficult and dangerous even in peacetime, far beyond ordinary people's imagination. It was definitely not a vacation, nor was it a romantic adventure. What do you think? What's the plan? ”

After listening to these patiently, although Wang Hao was very helpless in his heart, he wanted to say very much that I didn't want to join the army. But he still pretended to be firm and said, "I still want to join the army." ”

"You know, you don't have the right to pick and choose which department to serve, you know?"

"Totally understood!"

"Well, I hope you don't complain in the future, saying that I didn't try to persuade you. Got a birth certificate? Take out your documents. ”

Half an hour later, Wang Hao came to the top floor for the last physical examination before enlisting in the army.

The physical examination is very simple, it is to strip naked and lie on the bed, let the fluoroscope scan the body over and over again.

After the examination, watching the doctor sign the examination report, Wang Hao was very curious and asked the doctor: "Doctor, what is the percentage of people who cannot pass the physical examination?"

The doctor looked taken aback: "Why?" We never weed out anyone, the law doesn't allow it! ”

"Oh? I mean, I'm sorry, doctor, but what's the point of this kind of examination? ”

"Meaning." The doctor stuffed the examination report into Wang Hao's hand and replied, "In order to find out what kind of task your physical condition is suitable for." Even if you are blind enough to see anything, come in in a wheelchair, and still foolishly insist on joining the army, they will find an equally stupid post to meet your demands. Maybe it's a lab animal being used to test a new vaccine, or maybe it's a hand touching the fluff on a caterpillar. There is only one thing that will knock you out: the doctor declares that you cannot understand the meaning of the enlistment oath. Alright, young man, you are very fit and fit for any of the requirements of the Mobile Force, now, get out of this room! Go back to the robot! ”

Wang Hao thought about it for a long time before he realized that he wanted to go back to the sergeant.

However, the doctor's attitude seems to make Wang Hao feel that he has not detected a certain infectious disease in himself, or a disease that absolutely cannot be hired by the army. Thus successfully eliminated Wang Hao, which made the doctor feel very frustrated.

Back in the hall, return the medical report to the sergeant. The sergeant examined Wang Hao's documents and said with a gloomy face, "Obviously, very healthy, except for the hollow in your brains. Wait a minute, I'm going to call a few witnesses. He pressed a button, and two female staff members appeared, an old woman and a cute one.

He pointed to Wang Hao's physical examination list, birth certificate and ID card, and said very formally: "I invite and ask you to check these documents separately to determine who he is, and to determine the relationship between these documents and the gentleman standing here." ”

Wang Hao believes that he has never seen such a careful inspection, even in the real world, he has never been inspected so carefully.

The old woman asked Wang Hao all kinds of inexplicable questions over and over again, and the young female staff checked every document, compared all the fingerprint information from birth to the present, and checked the signature changes in various periods.

This even made Wang Hao begin to wonder if I was me.

I don't know how long it has been.

"We think," at last the old woman looked up and replied to the sergeant, "that he is in a state of mind that satisfies the requirements of the oath, that he is not under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or other drugs, and that he is not hypnotized to take the oath." ”

"Good." The sergeant turned to Wang Hao, "Repeat with me." ”

"I, of legal age, as I wish."

"I," Wang Hao repeated, "to be of legal age, according to my own wishes." ”

"without coercion, promise, or inducement, after being clearly informed of the meaning of this oath and the consequences of it."

"Now join the Earth Federation Army for a period of not less than two years, and if necessary, it will be extended accordingly until it is approved by the Federation."

"I swear to uphold and defend the Constitution of the Union against all enemies on Earth or on other planets, to defend the freedoms and privileges conferred upon by the Constitution of citizens and lawful residents of all Commonwealth and related territories, and to accomplish the tasks assigned to me by my lawful superiors or authorities, whether on Earth or elsewhere."

"Obey the lawful orders of the Commander-in-Chief of the Earth Army and all officers and related personnel who are higher than me."

"And to make the same request for anyone below me."

"Upon the completion of my service, I shall be honorably discharged, or upon completion of my service, and shall become a retired officer, shall continue to perform the duties of the Union during my lifetime, and shall enjoy the civil rights conferred upon me by the Commonwealth, unless deprived of such honour by a tribunal composed of citizens of equal citizenship."

Repeating the sergeant's words word by word, Wang Hao, who successfully took the oath, finally met the requirements for enlistment.

After that, he signed and pressed his fingerprints, and took a one-time headshot, which was immediately pasted on the document.

The sergeant finally looked up, "It's already past lunchtime." Let's eat, lad. ”

Wang Hao swallowed hard, "Uh, sergeant, won't the army take care of food after enlistment?" ”

"Of course, take care of the food, but you need to take care of yourself for the time being in the past two days."

"Sergeant, what does that mean?"

"You'll be given forty-eight hours off." The sergeant sneered, "Do you know the consequences of not being able to come back in time?" ”

"Well, do you have to go to a court-martial?"

"It's okay, it's okay at all, except that there will be a note on your file, 'The service period was not completed'. And you won't, won't, never get a second chance. This is what we call a cooling-off period, to weed out those who are well-fed, those who are insincere, and who should not take an oath. Not only does this save the government a lot of money, but it also saves the children and their parents a lot of trouble, and the neighbors don't gossip. You don't even have to tell your parents. ”

The sergeant moved his chair away from the table, "See you at noon the day after tomorrow, if I can see you again." Remember to bring your personal belongings. ”
