"Dad, I can't run."

"Hold on."

"But I really can't run anymore, will I stop running?"

"When you're on the battlefield, will those Imperial orangutans let you rest?"

"I won't run when I go to the battlefield, I'll blow up the dog heads of those imperial orangutans."

"You have to run, and if you have to run, you have to run."

"No, I'm not going to run, I'm going to kill them."

"But if you die, then no one will kill them anymore."

"But if I run, no one will be able to stop them."

……

If time were to go back to every morning jog in those years, Ji Xinghe would have tried more hard to persuade his son Ji Chenxing, but time could not go back, and his persuasion would definitely be useless, because Ji Chenxing's temper was stinky and hard, and his mind was full of heroism.

You should run, son.

Ji Xinghe's heart kept repeating this sentence, he didn't care what he had to hold onto, he didn't care who won or lost the war between the Federation and the Empire, he didn't even want to care about humans ruling orangutans and monkeys, or orangutans and monkeys ruling humans, he just wanted his son to live.

You should run, son.

Ji Xinghe has been running with Ji Chenxing for ten years, and after Ji Chenxing was admitted to the Military University, he would also run in Xinfeng City every day during the collective morning run of the Military University, just to accompany his son, even if there is a thousand miles between them. He just wanted Ji Chenxing to have better physical fitness, so that he could run a way out when he needed to escape.

You should run, son.

But Ji Chenxing didn't run, he fought to the death on the position of the alien front line, and his single armor broke through six Imperial mechas, and then the bones were lost in the self-explosion of the Imperial mechas.

Ji Xinghe, who was running silently, came up with a video picture brought by Han Li in his mind, from the black box of the Jichenxing mecha, which did not have the appearance of Jichenxing, only the imperial mecha in the perspective of the Jichenxing mecha.

One after another, as if endless, Ji Chenxing's mecha was submerged.

When the bursting firelight filled the entire frame, the black box recorded Ji Chenxing's last voice.

"Sting...... Thorn ...... Dad, I didn't run because I didn't want to embarrass you...... Thorn ...... Thorn ......"

Yes, son, you didn't embarrass me, so I won't embarrass you either.

The part of the road you didn't run, I'll run for you.

Ji Xinghe, who has nothing outside his mind, has entered a state that his colleagues are very familiar with, whenever he encounters a problem while repairing a car, he will concentrate as silently as he is now, he is not unable to hear the outside sound, nor can he see other people, he just will not be distracted until he completes his goal, this is a state of extreme concentration.

Today, he has only one goal that makes him extremely focused, and that is to run the ten kilometers of the road, just like as long as he can finish, his son will be able to run a way out of the battlefield at that time. It's like if if he can finish running, his son will be able to come back from the dead. It's like as long as he can finish, his son will give him a long-lost hug at the finish line.

Time was forgotten by him, but the instinct of a repairman, and the physical memory of decades of morning jogging, allowed him to maintain a pace that allowed him to complete his goals within the time limit.

He was tired, but he wouldn't stop, and he wouldn't slow down, because his son didn't disgrace him, and he didn't disgrace his son.

He was running, but he wasn't running away, he wasn't running for his son, he just wanted to run closer to his son, even if it ended in death.

……

In the Xinfengcheng Stadium, the voice of his staff officer sounded in the ears of Major General Tu Yuan, who had already stood up on the rostrum.

"Nine kilometers, time ...... It's enough. ”

This prompt is a bit redundant, because there is only one screen on the big screen in the gymnasium at this time, and all the split screens are fused together, so that everyone can see Ji Xinghe who is running.

In the upper right corner of the big screen, it clearly shows the distance that Ji Xinghe has run, as well as the time it takes: 9136 meters, 31 minutes.

There are still four minutes left, there are still 864 meters left, and Ji Xinghe's previous average speed exceeded 290 meters per minute, if Ji Xinghe didn't slow down, then he would definitely be able to finish the allotted time.

Tu Yuan asked in a low voice with an expressionless face, "Why, his speed has hardly changed from beginning to end?" ”

Under normal circumstances, the speed of the 10-kilometer long-distance run will definitely change due to the different physical fitness, and this time-limited long-distance running will also bring great psychological pressure to the participants, who will unconsciously increase their speed in the case of abundant physical fitness, and try to gain the advantage of time in the early stage.

But Ji Xinghe's speed from beginning to end was exactly the same, he didn't accelerate when he was full of physical energy, and he didn't slow down when his physical strength was weak.

"Maybe it's because he knows his physical condition very well, and he has completed a reasonable distribution of physical energy from the beginning." The staff officer analyzed: "Considering the premise that he knows martial arts, I think this is very reasonable. ”

Tu Yuan glanced at the staff officer: "Martial arts? Plausible? ”

The staff officer did not respond immediately, but stared at Ji Xinghe on the big screen in silence, and when he saw that the beautiful reporter came to Ji Xinghe's mouth with a glass of water, but Ji Xinghe didn't open his mouth, he couldn't help but pinch his heart.

"General." The staff officer said in a serious tone: "Let him go to the alien front line, even if it is just to take a look at the position that Ji Chenxing held with his life." ”

Tu Yuan had already looked at the big screen again, and Ji Xinghe in the picture was getting closer and closer to the end point, but his eyes were not on Ji Xinghe, but on those people near the end point.

There were a lot of people at the end of the line, but at this time, no one shouted cheers for Ji Xinghe, they just looked at Ji Xinghe silently, and the other people on the runway were ignored by them, even if there were their relatives and friends among those people.

Including Pei Jing, a female reporter who has always been able to attract the attention of all the men around her, it seems that she has disappeared from the sight of these people at this time, and they only have Ji Xinghe in their eyes.

If the camera can capture the eyes of these people, then it can capture the worried emotions from it, but unfortunately the camera can't capture it so clearly.

But Tu Yuan saw those worried eyes, just like the eyes he saw when he looked at his staff officers just now, almost all of them were worried about Ji Xinghe at this time.

The distance of 10 kilometers is actually not too long, long-distance runners can run more than 10 kilometers, and it is not uncommon for people in their sixties or even seventies to run more than 10 kilometers, but if you run a distance of 10 kilometers in 35 minutes, it is not easy to be 40 years old.

And after the age of 40, it is a one-year-old person.

Tu Yuan didn't know why he wanted to speak at this time, and watched Ji Xinghe on the screen getting closer and closer to the end point, and asked again.

"If it were you, would you run with your life like this?"

General, are you cursing me?

The staff officer replied heartily, "I won't, because I know there's no point in that." ”

"Then why does he find it so meaningful?"

"Maybe it's because ...... Other than that, he didn't know what to do or what he could do. ”

"Is the ambulance in place?"

"It's here, just waiting at the end."

"Then make arrangements, we'll go to the hospital later."

"Yes."

During the conversation, Ji Xinghe on the screen had crossed the finish line, the time was 34 minutes and 44 seconds, he was 16 seconds faster, so cheers rang out from the finish line, and many people wanted to rush to Ji Xinghe, who was slowing down and jogging, and then began to walk slowly, but a medical staff rushed over with a stretcher first, so the crowd stopped, and they looked at Ji Xinghe worriedly.

Because they all know that when Ji Xinghe stopped, it was when Ji Xinghe fell on the stretcher.

Will he be able to get back up after he falls?

There will be no answer to this question, because Ji Xinghe did not fall, and when he finally stopped, his back was straight, standing there like an evergreen pine standing on the cliff, and his eyes calmly looked at Pei Jing, who was full of worry, and stretched out his hand.

"Little girl, my knife."

Tu Yuan, who was on the rostrum of the gymnasium, laughed, he knew that he would not be able to go to the hospital today.
