Pleasant chats are always short-lived. After sharing each other's stories for more than an hour, Chen Xiaoxiang and Wang Xiaolin reluctantly said goodbye. The two of them chatted so congenially that Wang Xiaolin planned to continue at the door after Chen Xiaolin's meeting. Wait for her.
"Who is this girl?" Zhao Haiqiang came over and asked in a low voice. The receptionist was leading a few of them to the top floor of the Ministry of Defense. Along the way, there were stars gathering, all kinds of gold and silver embroidered epaulettes, and they were all senior officers. Many people were quiet and did not dare to say a word. .
Naturally, Chen Xiaoxiang didn't have so many scruples. She had walked on the line of life and death several times. In addition, she was an outspoken person who was fearless and fearless, so she spoke carelessly: "Ah, she, I don't know her specific identity, but He's quite good at talking, um, he should be from Yongshan University."
"Longshan University..." Zhao Haiqiang sighed in admiration.
"That's really good at reading."
When Chen Xiaoxiang came here before, she had mobilized so much to recall them. At that time, she thought it might be a big shot who wanted to see them. When she actually walked into this extremely spacious conference room and faced at least three generals inside, she actually felt a little flinched and felt that her imagination was still a little weak.
There was a lieutenant general sitting at the top. At first glance, Chen Xiaoxiang felt that he seemed to be somewhat similar to Gu Hongdie, who had disappeared long ago. When the name was introduced, it was Gu Xuchun. Chen was convinced that this must have something to do with Gu Hongdie.
Lieutenant General Gu looks extremely young, with not a trace of gray hair on his temples, and no signs of fatigue and haggard caused by the stress of the war. He is extremely energetic, which makes people feel trustworthy and secure when looking at him.
Lieutenant General Gu first commended the achievements of everyone. They were the few survivors of Operation Xinghu and completed the important tasks assigned by the headquarters with their lives and loyalty. And personally awarded them medals on the spot. Purple Star Medal, Third Class.
Afterwards, without any intention of smoothing over the situation, Lieutenant General Gu directly began to ask, during the battle, who had personally seen the face or characteristics of the attacker who captured the Yaoxiao?
Xin Jie is one of the few people in this group who can recall the scene at that time. She said that she reached the escape channel earlier through the solitary fish and escaped along the channel to the surface. It was obvious that the attacker had opened a secret route and was able to attack the particularly powerful mermaid in the lake.
Gu Xuchun didn't dwell too much on this issue. After all, the people who survived were those who arrived at the escape route in advance. He didn't even ask more about Gu Hongdie. He closed the file with a slight heaviness, nodded to the next major general, and left the conference room.
"Because you were exposed to high-level pollutants, your bodies and memories are suspected of being tampered with, so you are unable to speak or remember everything you experienced during the mission." The major general in charge said, followed by a machine that flashed vermilion and silver. The instruments were set up.
"Next, you have to sleep for a while, not too long. After that, technical personnel will ask for information while you are unconscious. Please rest assured that the instrument will not cause any irreversible damage. After this, you can obtain a lot of information. A long vacation until the troops call upon you again."
Chen Xiaoxiang was the first to inject the anesthetic. She lay under the instrument. A few seconds before she lost consciousness, she saw three needles thicker than her fingers slowly aiming at her eyes. Then came endless darkness.
After waking up, Chen Xiaoxiang didn't feel that his memory had recovered. When he recalled the battle of Xinghu, it became even more hazy. If he was looking outside through a thin curtain before, now he was looking outside through a black cloth. But everyone didn't care. Instead, they breathed a sigh of relief. After all, no one likes to keep such tragic memories.
After walking out of the Ministry of National Defense and taking a breath of the exceptionally fresh air in Tamamo District, Zhao Haiqiang stretched his waist and said, "This vacation lasts for a month anyway. How about it? Where are you guys planning to go?"
Where else to go? I haven’t been home for a year. Who wouldn’t go back?
"If you have a chance, come over to my house and play. My fried dough sticks will treat you to some fried dough sticks wrapped in sugar."
"You're so stingy. Treating guests to meat is a bit too much."
Everyone dispersed one after another, and they couldn’t stay in Tamamo District. There were security guards everywhere. After catching the train, they passed the Kieji Bridge and went to the living area. Basically, there were Jinping and Kanri.
Live in the district.
Chen Xiaoxiang was not in a hurry to go home. Somehow, she was not particularly looking forward to going home. It felt like something was missing on the battlefield. She chatted with Wang Xiaolin, who was sitting aside waiting for her, for a while. It wasn't until the train passed the evening rush hour that the two of them left each other's phone addresses to say goodbye.
"Damn it, you are really from Longshan University..." Chen Xiaoxiang looked at the address and said depressedly.
Of the tens of millions of Alliance citizens, less than a thousand are admitted to Yongshan University every year. The value is so high that it goes without saying.
The trams are empty after rush hour. One characteristic is that the security checks are very high going down the dungeon, but there is nothing going up to the Tianmen. Connecting various dungeon areas is the Realm Bridge. Because each area is actually independent, it is quite like a row of balls connected in series, and only the point adjacent to it is the passage.
In the past, when Longshan's geology was unstable, lava would always seep into the sun viewing area for a few weeks every year. When the lava dripped out of the holographic sun screen, the hot afterglow of the setting sun hit your face, literally "watching the sun" , the most serious time. It is necessary to close the boundary bridge and seal off an area to ensure the safety of other areas.
The rising and closing of the Realm Bridge has become a thing of the past. This is a bridge with neither rift valley nor river under it, only hard stone.
After crossing the Jieyu Bridge, I saw the clearly visible and endlessly repeated Fuxing Building. The air became sultry and turbid. Passers-by were all wearing monochromatic clothes and walking monotonously. The only strange thing in Chen Xiaoxiang's eyes was a man wearing a uniform. The policemen in black and blue uniforms were running wildly towards the Boundary Bridge. ..
So suddenly, Chen Xiaoxiang didn't want to go home anymore. She jumped off the tram and grabbed the bus to Tamamo. She knew where she wanted to go. Yes, it was to go to Longshan University to find Wang Xiaolin. She was eager She wanted to hear Wang Xiaolin tell everything about college, or maybe she would tell her military stories that seemed lackluster, but no matter what, she didn't want to go back, not to the army, but to go home.
Because there were hundreds of people who ascended to the surface, but she was the only one who came back.
"Why are you back?" Wang Xiaolin asked in surprise.
"I don't want to go back, but I'm going to hang out here for a few days. Can you take me to the university?"
"Okay, come with me. I'm familiar with the security guard."
The penholder-style gate of Longshan University was majestic and conspicuous. The security guards below checked the IDs of everyone entering and exiting one by one. Only after Wang Xiaolin said hello, Chen Xiaoxiang entered through the special passage that was opened. She didn't ask why, she just wanted to take a walk in this tree-lined area and see her peers who could study at her age.
"Want something to eat?"
"You're not hungry, take me to the library?"
"good."
The library of Longshan University is newly built, with glazed green tiles. Although there are no carved beams or paintings, it is very meaningful. Chen Xiaoxiang stood at the door and looked at it carefully for a few minutes, then walked to a nearby pavilion and said, "Continue to talk about us." story?"
"good."
