Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The sound of footsteps made the two people who were sitting move their bodies. Xia Jinyuan, who was leaning against the wall with the back of his head, tilted his head and saw his comrades appearing one after another in their jungle combat uniforms and combat boots.
“She’s here.” His voice was extremely hoa.r.s.e. He opened his mouth and turned his head. He continued to wait without moving.
Only ten minutes had pa.s.sed, but the ten minutes were stretching too long.
After a long wait, Xia Jinyuan looked at the door of the emergency room and closed his eyes.
Waiting on the battlefield and waiting in the hospital were two entirely different emotions. He could remain calm and composed while waiting on the battlefield. The time to rest had arrived.
Waiting in the hospital felt very long. He felt that life was so fragile. The smell of disinfectant was like the smell of death. It was everywhere. You couldn’t escape it.
This waiting was filled with helplessness, hope, and panic.
Xia Jinyuan thought that he might never like a hospital in his entire life. Staying here for too long, might torture a normal person until they went crazy.
The red light was still on. Even if he stretched his neck, he couldn’t see what was happening inside. His beloved, his life, was still inside. Xia Jinyuan chose to ignore his comrades’ gazes.
He didn’t want to say anything now. He only had his lover in his heart and mind.
Major Xia let his comrades take a few more glances at him. Then, he s.h.i.+fted his gaze to K7.
“Let’s talk on the roof.” K7 tucked his helmet under his armpit and walked towards the fire escape.
At this moment, it was already dawn. Standing on the roof, K7 took a deep breath of the cold wind that had the smell of snow. Facing his comrades who were concerned made his usual skinny face turn a little cold. His gaze slid past his comrades who didn’t even wipe their paint. Just as everyone thought that he needed to continue brewing, K7 suddenly spoke.
The moment he opened his mouth, it was as if he had thrown two grenades. One was a murder grenade and the other was a chemical grenade. Everyone was stunned and their expressions were synchronized.
“Azure Bird took the old path of R2.”
That was what K7 told them. After a few words, everyone’s gaze turned sharp. The corners of their mouths were pressed together. Because of their change, the north wind was like lead. It was heavy and full of pressure.
The roof was very cold. The wind was strong. There was no sun or snow. One could only see the gloomy weather. The figures standing on the roof were like white poplar trees in the wind. No matter how strong the wind was, it couldn’t suppress their tall and straight backs.
This was a group of soldiers who fought at the frontline and used their lives to protect their country. They were a group of soldiers who were loyal to their country. They had bled too much and suffered too many injuries. Some even almost died in a foreign country.
The path they were walking on was too difficult and tiring. All of them were brave people who walked on the edge of a knife. They overcame all obstacles and came here drenched in blood.
It was tough, but they had never shed a single tear. At this moment, tears were already flowing down the corners of their eyes. The unyielding Special Forces soldiers wiped their tears secretly.. They gritted their teeth and suppressed their emotions violently.
