Campus Alliance-Never Fall North Star

Every country has its own heroes, whether it's our own or someone else's. Those who sacrifice their lives for others deserve our admiration. Loyal bones are buried everywhere in the green mountains. There are always people in the world who need to take the lead...

If no one dares to move forward, then he is willing to be that person. His comrades also think so. Even if they die, they must hold their heads high, because we are fighting for this country! - Jin Changfeng

Jin Changfeng lowered his head and looked at the little girl holding a toy gun in her arms.

Five-year-old Shen Jiaqi had two pigtails, and the red ribbons at the ends of the pigtails were stained with mud - it was from when he followed the soldiers to climb obstacles in the military compound in the afternoon.

"Being a hero isn't easy." He scratched her nose, and the calluses on his palm made her giggle. "To be a hero, you have to learn to endure pain, learn not to cry when you miss home, and also learn... to protect those weaker than you."

Shen Jiaqi held up a toy gun in front of him. The gun was carved from wood and had been dented by her. "I'm not afraid of pain! Last time I broke my knee, I didn't even cry!" She suddenly leaned in close, her nose almost touching his chin. "Dad, are you a hero?"

Shen Changfeng's Adam's apple rolled.

"Dad isn't," he held her hand holding the gun and helped her aim at the patch on the tent, "Dad is just a soldier. But Dad knows that a true hero isn't one who can defeat many enemies, but one who can make the people behind him sleep peacefully."

Xiao Jiaqi seemed to understand, but not quite, and pressed his cheek against his military uniform.

There was a faint smell of gunpowder on the fabric, mixed with the smell of being dried in the sun, which was the most familiar and reassuring thing to her.

She suddenly remembered what her mother always said: "Your father's gun is not loaded with bullets, but with the moon of our home."

"Then I want to be a hero who can make the moon not have a missing corner!" Little Jiaqi clenched the wooden gun, his little face full of seriousness, "Just like dad, guarding our tent!"

Shen Changfeng smiled and hugged her tighter. The wind outside the tent lifted the canvas, bringing in the starlight, which fell on Xiao Jiaqi's pigtails.

"When you grow up," he whispered, "Dad will take you to see the real North Star. It will never move, just like the place we guard, which will always be home."

Little Jiaqi nuzzled against his chest, slowly closing his eyes as he mumbled, "I want the North Star to shine on our tent... and I want all the kids to have candy..."

Shen Changfeng looked at his daughter's sleeping face and suddenly kissed her forehead.

He knew that some seeds were destined to grow towards the light from the day they were planted - perhaps one day, this sapling would become a towering tree, providing shelter for more people.

Many years later, the moment Shen Jiaqi closed her eyes, she seemed to have turned back into her childhood. The patches on the tent were like stars, her father's military uniform smelled of sunshine, and the wooden gun in her hand seemed to be able to really emit protective light.

A so-called hero is nothing more than someone who hides his fear and shows his love, so that the people behind him can step on his shadow and move towards a brighter place.

The wind passing through the wind chimes sounded like countless responses.

The snow-capped mountains in the distance were silent in the night, the prayer flags at the border fluttered in the wind, and the loquat tree next to the bookstore rustled - those who sacrificed in different corners were reunited in another way.

They turned into stars, into wind, into fireworks in the world, guarding the peace they exchanged for their lives.

The North Star never burns out because there are always people who remember it; the North Star never falls because there are always people who follow the light.
