Chapter 212 Section 8

At the gate of the border armed police force, sentries are standing guard.Xiao Zhuang walked over with a big rucksack on his back and stopped outside the cordon. A sentry ran over and looked at him carefully: "Comrade? Are you okay?" "I...I want to come...to see my comrades in arms." "Which comrade? Which unit are you in?" "I'm out of the army, I want to see Xiaoying." The sentinel was stunned: "I'm sorry, Xiaoying...she died." Xiao Zhuang stood there, staring blankly at him. "How about this, you wait a while. I'll call their health team and ask her comrades to pick you up. Do you think this is okay?"

"thanks." "Then what's your name? How should I say it?" "Just find...Xiaofei and tell me that I...just got discharged from 026." "026? What unit?" "A... logistics warehouse." The sentinel nodded: "Wait a minute! I'll make a call." He turned and ran into the reception room.Xiaozhuang stood at the door, watching the armed police vehicles coming and going absently. After a while, Xiao Fei came running over wearing the uniform of the armed police with a white flower on her chest. Xiao Zhuang looked at her silently.Xiaofei's footsteps slowly slowed down. She came over and looked at Xiaozhuang's casual clothes: "You... are leaving?"

Xiao Zhuang nodded. "When will you go home?" "After leaving here." Xiaofei wiped away her tears: "It's better to leave early than late. Xiao..." Xiaofei couldn't continue, tears came out again, "She has something for you, come with me." Xiaozhuang followed her and walked into the cordon. Xiaofei pointed to Xiaozhuang and said to the sentinel, "Xiaoying and I are comrades in arms." The sentry nodded and let them pass. The two walked into the army compound, with Xiaofei walking in front and Xiaozhuang following.There are elegiac couplets and wreaths mourning Xiaoying everywhere.

Dormitory for female soldiers. Xiaozhuang unbuttoned his backpack and silently watched Xiaoying's bed.Xiaoying's bed is already empty, only the boards are left.Xiao Zhuang walked over and knelt down, leaning over the bed, his face pressed against the cold bed, he closed his eyes, weeping silently. Sitting on the bed, Xiao Fei handed him a cowhide envelope: "This is what she left for you." Xiaozhuang took the envelope and opened it, took out the thick letter, and a bunch of dried wild orchids fell out.Xiaozhuang picked up the wild orchid and watched it quietly. "These are all the suicide notes she wrote after she came to the Armed Police Force." Xiaofei choked up, "When we came to the Border Armed Police Force, we caught up with the rehearsal of combat readiness, which was to prepare for the Chinese sword operation. From that day on , she will leave a letter for you every day, because we don't know when we will go up, and whether we can come down after we go up..."

Holding those letters, Xiao Zhuang wept bitterly. Xiaofei was also crying: "If you want to feel uncomfortable, let me hold you." Xiaozhuang threw himself into Xiaofei's arms and cried like a child. Xiaofei hugged Xiaozhuang tightly, and kissed Xiaozhuang's forehead softly with tears in her eyes: "Okay, don't cry." She kissed Xiao Zhuang's eyes, kissed away Xiao Zhuang's tears, kissed Xiao Zhuang's nose, and kissed Xiao Zhuang's face.She said softly: "Okay, don't cry." Then, she gently kissed Xiao Zhuang's lips, "Don't forget me, Xiao Zhuang..."

Xiao Zhuang cried foolishly.The two kissed in sadness and were tightly entangled...
