[Full-time Chusu] Dreaming of death

What? "Chu Yunxiu grabbed the fax paper in her hands, she didn't understand why she was so angry. She and Su Mucheng did a great and successful thing less than half a day ago, but now she wants her Evacuation?" There is no reason for this! "

"For us, it's enough to know that this is an order from the superior." Wang Jiexi didn't take Chu Yunxiu's protest seriously at all. "Although we are doing foreign affairs, we still have to obey the instructions."

"I'm not a foreign affairs officer." Chu Yunxiu said bluntly, "I'm a reporter. I want to record everything that happens here. I won't leave here. This is my job."

"If you need it," Wang Jiexi stopped what he was doing, "I can help you send a request to the photography department of the news agency."

"What's the use of asking for instructions?" Chu Yunxiu took a photo of the facsimile she crumpled on the table in the living room of the embassy, ​​"They only care about the so-called news, guess how many of them know what City B is like now? How many people would care about how the people in City B are living now? I was sent here just because it is newsworthy and the country needs reports in this area, other than that, it is meaningless!"

"I don't think the 'they' you mentioned only care about the so-called news, at least they care about your safety." Wang Jiexi lowered his eyes to look at the fax paper that was about to be crushed by Chu Yunxiu, "Today is January 1th. It's the day, and there are less than 14 hours before the deadline for withdrawal, you can choose to stay."

"Of course I want to stay!" Chu Yunxiu couldn't wait to finish, and then realized that such a tone was not suitable for Wang Jiexi, and quickly added: "I have a good reason to stay. I think I have a responsibility To expose the evil and ugliness of this war to the world is not just for news. I came here to understand that it is more like a kind of faith, and it is worth everything for it."

"Even life?" Wang Jiexi saw blood suddenly.

Chu Yunxiu was startled for a moment, then nodded seriously, "Even life."

Wang Jiexi didn't speak this time, but looked at Chu Yunxiu and shook his head.His eyes were calm and unwavering, making it impossible to see that he was in a city like a powder keg at the moment.And that calmness is more like a kind of contempt, no explanation, no argument, no persuasion, just a complete refusal to believe.

"You don't believe it?" Chu Yunxiu suddenly raised her voice.

"I believe it." Wang Jiexi said, "but I don't agree."

"..." Chu Yunxiu looked at him speechlessly, and quickly sorted out the theoretical basis and organized language in her mind, preparing to use a long speech to convince Wang Jiexi, but she suddenly realized that she did not agree with this view just a few days ago ——At that time, it was Su Mucheng who held the same opinion as her at this time—and suddenly lost the courage to continue arguing.

"Look, you don't actually believe this." Wang Jiexi was still very calm. He looked up at the wall clock on the wall, and turned to Chu Yunxiu, "It's best to pack up quickly. Nine o'clock in the morning is the last one to leave." The plane in City B."

Undoubtedly, Wang Jiexi's calm attitude irritated her, which was even more intolerable than the argument, she tried her best to maintain her sanity and manageable calmness and tried to communicate with Wang Jiexi, "I said I'm not leaving. "

Wang Jiexi looked at her for a while, with a complicated expression on his face, "It's not as simple as you think. I have the responsibility to ensure the safety of all citizens of country C in country I. You are the last one. You must evacuate with the embassy."

"I'm not leaving." Chu Yunxiu said, "My mission here is to record the truth. You said it, and the truth is still going on. How could I let you go early?"

Wang Jiexi reached out and took the crumpled fax and slapped it in front of Chu Yunxiu, "This is an order."

Chu Yunxiu bit her lip, grabbed the fax with one hand and tore it into pieces, "There is no order now."

The rest of the people who heard the argument and came out to find out looked at each other, but no one dared to speak.Chu Yunxiu was a woman who was given special treatment among the men, but Wang Jiexi was their immediate boss, so it was better not to get involved in any quarrel between these two.

Wang Jiexi stared at the shredded paper on the ground for a while, "Is that why you want to stay?"

Chu Yunxiu answered decisively, "Yes."

"That's good." He waved his hand as if giving up, "You go and write a document stating that you are staying voluntarily and are willing to bear all the consequences. It has nothing to do with the embassy."

"Yes." Chu Yunxiu nodded stiffly, as if she hadn't recovered from the excitement of tearing up the fax just now, "I'll write it right away."

"Also." Wang Jiexi interrupted her, "This place needs to be completely sealed off after we leave, and you need to find a new place to live."

"I can go to Hotel L." She said without thinking.

"You can't go there." Xu Bin, the military attache of the embassy, ​​interjected, "It's no longer accepting people there."

Chu Yunxiu was dumbfounded, but she soon realized that this was in fact a matter of course - the embassy of country C was about to be evacuated, presumably the same was true for other countries, and as for the reporters, there were not many left after January 1.It was completely impossible for her to find a new residence before the embassy and his party went to the airport.A cavity of passionate blood is suddenly poured to freezing point by extremely realistic cold water, which is more likely to make people lose their fighting spirit than any blow from "people".Living without a fixed place to take pictures and go to the news is nothing but a dream. She had to admit that Wang Jiexi had a good reason: she actually didn't fully believe in the theory that she would sacrifice her life to record the truth.

At this moment, the phone in the embassy suddenly rang.The nearest Gao Yingjie jumped up from his chair to pick it up. After picking it up, he answered a few words as usual, then he moved the receiver and said to Chu Yunxiu, "Senior Sister, I'm looking for you. It's Ms. Su."

Miss Su's three words gave Chu Yunxiu a flash of inspiration.Su Mucheng once told her that she didn't live in Hotel L, and naturally she couldn't live in a place like an embassy like herself. The only possibility is that she has her own residence in City B—that's wonderful.Thinking of this episode, she took three steps at a time and almost jumped in front of the phone. Gao Yingjie shrewdly moved aside and handed the receiver to her. An impatient voice:

"Yunxiu, are you okay? I just heard that the negotiations between the secretary-general and the president broke down, and neither party will withdraw troops tomorrow. No one can guarantee what may happen to country I after that. You..." Su Mucheng seemed to want to say What, he paused again, and then repeated it lightly again, with countless complex and deep emotions condensed into it, "Are you okay?"

Hearing Su Mucheng's nervous performance on the phone and recalling her inexplicable anger just now, Chu Yunxiu suddenly twitched and gave a dumb smile, which seemed to be a little mocking, but she was also deeply at a loss, "I'm fine, isn't it?" How long has it been since we separated?"

"It's good that you're fine," Su Mucheng said, "I'm always a little worried..."

"I'm in the embassy, ​​it's very safe here." Chu Yunxiu replied with a smile, "By the way, I didn't catch the first few words you said. What happened? What did you hear?"

"The negotiation broke down." Su Mucheng's voice was a little hoarse, "They just finished talking, I heard from the people in the news department. No one will withdraw troops tomorrow, and a war will start soon... Actually, we all know which side will win."

Chu Yunxiu remained silent. In the past 140 days, country I built 2200 kilometers of Class A roads, and gathered all the country's armored forces at the 31st parallel north latitude.This approach seems to be bold and arrogant, but from a strategic point of view, it is completely a paper defense line. The strength of the I Army and the multinational forces are not on the same level at all. To put it more bluntly, this is clearly the whole country. Looking for a dead end.

"So..." Su Mucheng spoke very slowly, as if speaking this way, the thing she was resisting in her heart would come later, "When is your embassy going to evacuate? You should also go together, right? "

"The embassy leaves at nine o'clock in the morning. It is said that it is the last flight to leave City B." Chu Yunxiu cleared her throat lightly and said quickly, "As for me...my words..."

She was somewhat inexplicably hesitant. Su Mucheng heard her hesitation, and immediately asked, with a slight joy that was suppressed in her voice, "What about you? Won't you go with them?"

"No." Chu Yunxiu said, "I'm not leaving. In fact, I have something else to ask you... After the embassy leaves, I can no longer live here, and L Hotel is said to no longer accept check-ins... Can I Shall I move to live with you? As long as there is a roof and walls, it doesn’t matter if there is no place for me to sleep.”

"Are you kidding, why are you so exaggerated?" Su Mucheng laughed suddenly on the other end of the phone, "Of course you can, but if you want to sleep, I can only wrong you—I only have one bed, but I want to sleep with us. Two should be fine."

At 7:[-] in the morning, Chu Yunxiu drove Wang Jiexi and his party to the airport in City B.Before boarding the plane, Wang Jiexi stuffed a few documents and a stack of banknotes to her, "Here is your proof of returning to China and some other materials that can be used. Hold your passport. Don't treat this place as if you are at home. If the situation is wrong, please contact us." The embassy in country Y..." When he said this, he suddenly realized that the international communication in country I had been completely cut off, and there was basically no way to talk about the so-called contact. Chu Yunxiu could only resign himself to staying, "That's it, you pay attention."

Chu Yunxiu stuffed the stack of hard currency into his pocket, clutching the documents tightly in his hand and nodded vigorously, "I know."

After the plane took off, she returned to City B. Wang Jiexi left all the things that could be used in the embassy in the embassy.
