Mecha and Knife

2022-03-13

Chapter 12 Zigong is not as good as me

little girl, my knife.

The knife, not the bag.

At first, Pei Jing thought it was because the cheers around her were too loud, so she heard it wrong. She thought it was because Ji Xinghe was too tired to speak clearly, but when she handed the bag to Ji Xinghe, And when Ji Xinghe opened the bag in front of her, she knew she heard right.

In that bag she was carrying were two knives, Ji Xinghe’s knives.

This 65-year-old old man who wants to join the army to avenge his son carries two knives with him. After running ten kilometers in thirty-five minutes, he did not collapse to the ground tired, but stood tall and straight and asked for his knife.

However, what is the use of such weapons as knives on the battlefield of Alien Front? The imperial orangutans are driving mecha. In front of a mecha with an average height of 4.5 meters, what is the difference between these two knives and toothpicks that can be easily put in a handbag?

Perhaps, this is just a spiritual sustenance.

It’s as if everyone knew that Ji Xinghe went to the Alien Front, it didn’t make any sense, but Ji Xinghe went anyway.

Pei Jing, with complicated thoughts, has a thousand words, but in the end she only uttered one sentence.

“Ji grandfather, do you want to take a break?”

Ji Xinghe actually has a thousand words to say, but he is reluctant to say it. Looking at the camera, he only says a sentence.

“No need, I can run another ten kilometers.”

Those who saw Ji Xinghe at this moment, heard his words, were almost heartbroken. Had the same idea: this is a stubborn old man.

“Interview him, continue to interview him.”

The director’s prompt came from Pei Jing’s headphones, and Pei Jing herself knew very well that interviewing Ji Xinghe at this time would bring What a high rating and what a high click rate it will bring, but she really thinks that Ji Xinghe needs to rest now, so she asked softly: “Grandfather, when is it convenient for you to be interviewed?”

Ji Xinghe looked at the camera and pondered, he felt that Tu Yuan should be looking at him now, and Tu Yuan is the only person in New Phoenix City who can decide whether he can go to the Alien Front. Coercing public opinion does not mean that he can ignore the rules. Those who master the rules and make them often dislike his behavior the most.

Sixty-five-year-olds are ordinary, but Ji Xinghe has gained some life lessons.

“Sorry, little girl, if I have time, I will contact you again.”

This is a refusal, because Ji Xinghe did not ask for Pei Jing’s contact information, so he is It’s hard to get in touch with Pei Jing when you have time.

This is a threat, because Pei Jing’s contact information is actually not difficult to find. Her workplace is New Phoenix City TV. In addition to Pei Jing, in the next few months, there will be thousands of ‘Pei Jing’ who want to interview him absolutely.

This is backwards.

Ji Xinghe walked away in the camera, and his back disappeared in the crowd, but Pei Jing, who looked at Ji Xinghe, felt the taste of loneliness: Ji Xinghe was in the middle of the crowd. But these people couldn’t give him the hug he wanted. Ji Xinghe was on the blue star, but his heart was on the front line of alien stars. Ji Xinghe was alive, but he was dead.

I really want to hug this poor and respectable stubborn old man.

……

“Do you really want to die?”

Tu Yuan looked at Ji Xinghe standing in front of him and asked blankly. There is a question of impoliteness, impolite because of the age of both parties.

Ji Xinghe was silent and looked at Tu Yuan calmly. Because of his height, he seemed to be looking down at Tu Yuan, who was 1.78 meters tall. It is also impolite due to the identity of both parties.

But neither of these guys care about that stuff, and red tape doesn’t make any sense a lot of the time.

“Why don’t you want to talk to them a few more words?”

Tu Yuan continued to ask questions, he was talking about those who knew Ji Xinghe and got the news. , These people managed to get close to Ji Xinghe in the crowd, but they could only shout Old Ji while watching Old Ji in their mouths leave in embarrassment.

Ji Xinghe, who ran ten kilometers, was not embarrassed. Ji Xinghe, who was surrounded by crowds, was not embarrassed. Ji Xinghe, who faced Major General Tu Yuan, was not embarrassed, but when facing these people, Ji Xinghe looked a little bit. Embarrassed.

Ji Xinghe knew very well why he didn’t want to talk more to those who knew him, and he also knew that Tu Yuan knew this, so he continued to keep silent, just looking down at Tu Yuan, firmly. There was a hint of pleading in his eyes.

Tu Yuan was silent for a moment.

“Today’s physical fitness test has all ended, and it is a long time later than we expected, because the number of people who participated is much more than those who signed up online, from 7,000 people to 10,000 people. There are 13,000 people, and the extra 6,000 people… all because of you.”

Registration is usually done by filling in relevant information in advance on the Internet, on-site registration is just a process, no one expects those People who are unwilling to move their fingers on the Internet really come to register on the spot. But when Ji Xinghe’s simple story spread because of his participation, many people who had signed up on the Internet but did not come to the scene silently came to the scene to participate in the assessment. There are also some people who have not signed up before coming to the scene to sign up and take part in the physical fitness assessment.

In terms of the total population of New Phoenix City, 13,000 people are not too many, but considering the specific content of the physical fitness test and the purpose of this test, 13,000 people are already a lot. , the extra 6,000 people also exceeded everyone’s expectations.

Regardless of how many people pass the level, this is a good sign for the Commonwealth.

Ji Xinghe finally said, “No thanks.”

Tu Yuan laughed, he was actually a little worried about Ji Xinghe’s body, but now Ji Xinghe can still joke, then There’s really nothing to worry about. However, what he didn’t know was that Ji Xinghe wasn’t joking, he really said no thanks, and added in his heart: I’m sorry.

Sorry for those who passed the physical fitness test, they are the parents and close relatives of these people.

“I have three strategies of high, middle and low.” Tu Yuan put away his smile and asked seriously: “Which one do you want to listen to first?”

“Which one can Avenge me?”

“It’s all possible.”

“The best policy.”

“The best policy is that we package you as a spokesperson for the recruiting advertisement. , you walk through all the cities in the entire Federation, and then go to the Alien Front with the power of the entire Federation, we will definitely win, and you will definitely succeed in revenge.”

Ji, who just said sorry in his heart Xinghe shook his head.

Tu Yuan doesn’t seem to be surprised, nor is he angry, maybe he also thinks that although it is the most beneficial, it is the most inhumane.

“The central policy is that I will let you go to the Outer Front, but you can only stay in the rear base, your military life will be broadcast live, and all you need to do is repair your car. I checked, You can repair almost any military car, and someone who can’t repair it can teach you. Even if you repair it slowly, it is also a way of participating in the war. If we win, you can get revenge. .”

From a sure win, to if we win, the gap between the best and the middle strategy is immeasurable.

But Ji Xinghe shook his head.

Tu Yuan couldn’t help sighed: What a stubborn old man.

“I want you and me to specifically talk about the difference between these, and tell me that under the current situation, as a federal person, as a father of a federal fighting hero, you should have Responsibilities and obligations?”

“No, I know.” Ji Xinghe said calmly: “But I just want to avenge my son.”

“Stupid.”

p>

Tu Yuan scolded loudly.

Ji Xinghe is neither sad nor angry: “Zigong is not as good as I can.”

Huh? what do you mean.

Tu Yuan was so angry that he couldn’t understand for a while. He felt that Ji Xinghe was talking nonsense, but the staff officer beside him was able to keep calm all the time. This was his duty and obligation. : The gift is beyond your reach.”

Tu Yuan instantly recalled a dialogue: Zigong said, “I don’t want others to be imposed on me, and I also want nothing to be imposed on others. Confucius said, “It is a gift that is beyond your reach.”

Zi Gong said, “I don’t want what others impose on me, and I also hope not to impose it on others.” Confucius said: “Giving Ah, this is not something you can do.” (Zigong: Duanmu Ci, surnamed Duanmu, courtesy name Zigong)

Is it stupid for someone who can express his thoughts in the “Analects” casually? He is not stupid.

He just wants to avenge his son, he doesn’t care about the outcome between the Federation and the Empire. He just wants to avenge his son, he doesn’t care about responsibilities and obligations.

He just wants to avenge his son. He doesn’t want more people to be like him. In fact, he just wants to die on the same planet as his son.

Old Ji is fuming, and his ambition is not a thousand miles away.

Tu Yuan was silent, Ji Xinghe asked.

“The next step.”

The next step is… Tu Yuan didn’t say anything, but took out a document he got four days ago. Originally, he was going to leave New When Phoenix City was handed over to Ji Xinghe, but now he has to hand over to Ji Xinghe, because he doesn’t want Ji Xinghe to die.

“You have a granddaughter who is six years old.”
