This little episode passed quickly, and in the early morning of the next day, before dawn, a large group of people in military uniforms rubbed their sleepy eyes, yawned, half mumbling and half wailing, and ran towards the gathering place with difficulty.

"Wake up so early! It's not dawn yet, so I can't sleep in late."

"Very sleepy."

"Damn military training, it's boring to think about it."

"I'm a little looking forward to it, it is said that I can encounter real guns and live ammunition!"

"Wow, really?"

……

Until—"What are you talking about! Hurry up and gather!"

The half-month military training life kicked off with the whistle of the battalion commander.

Xia Yubing was a little upset, because when he turned back, he found Qu Hedong standing in front of him. He didn't like military training very much, and the air pressure in his body was many times lower than usual when he woke up early in the morning. Looking at it this way, the air pressure was even lower. He frowned slightly, his peach blossom eyes were sleepy, his lips were tightly pressed, and the words "don't let strangers in" were written all over his face.

The main content of military training for students, in Xia Yubing's view, is boring and unchanging for thousands of years.

Standing in a military posture, turning around, taking a rest, striding forward, walking in the flag step, walking in a forward step... Practicing every day, Xia Yubing feels that life is hopeless.

But at this moment, he who has no love in his life is doing something that makes him no love in his life.

Well, it's over with patience, but it only takes more than ten days.

The sun was rising higher and higher, and the air was getting hotter and hotter. The sound of cicadas and birdsong came from all directions. There was nothing else on the training ground except the instructors' shouting slogans and occasional laughter. Xia Yubing watched My own shadow came from nothing, slowly turned from front to back, and then from existence to nothing, watching the sky change from blue-gray to orange, from orange to clear sky blue, then to dazzling white, and then to In the sunset, it changes into colorful colors.Xia Yubing said to herself, sooner or later.

It’s really coming soon, but Xia Yubing’s mood is as bad as ever—he’s always dreaming these days, the content of the dream is repeated, but it looks messy, and the military training starts much earlier than usual, every day like this, his black Eye circles are getting heavier every day.

What else does this dream mean?Xia Yubing began to face up to those strange dreams.He tried to use Freud's theory to interpret his dreams, but he couldn't find the answer.

Maybe he can talk to Sister Erya, a psychology graduate student.

The afternoon sun was even more vicious, making people sweat, and many people's skin was sunburned, sweat dripped down their foreheads, and the clothes on their bodies stuck to their bodies with sweat. Xia Yubing felt the tingling pain on the back of his neck and felt uncomfortable He frowned.

It's not unreasonable for Erya to drag him to buy sunscreen, but unfortunately, as a big man, he has never applied it... The big man said that he should put on some sunscreen in the future.

Looking into the distance where the flowers and trees were scattered, Xia Yubing recalled the chaotic dream of last night.In his dream, he vaguely heard a person's suppressed crying, a girl's voice, and he saw all kinds of indistinct people, talking, laughing, sighing, hypocritical pity, ridicule, complacency, almost perverted, The laughter was sharp and abrupt, with a disgusting breath, and he vaguely saw someone staggering up the stairs step by step-climbing up... What did you do?He couldn't remember clearly, he knew the answer was deep in his mind, think about it again, maybe he thought of it?He couldn't help closing his eyes, far away, vaguely, the instructor's scolding sounded in his ears, and he felt bursts of tingling pain from the depths of his brain, and suddenly his brain went blank.

"It's about you! I just called for a break, didn't you hear me!"

Are you talking about me?He raised his head, as if he wanted to make sure of something. He wanted to speak, but he couldn't say anything, his ears were buzzing. When he opened his eyes, he saw the world spinning around. Suddenly, he remembered a shocking scene. The bright red.

"What's wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?" There were so many people, it was hard to tell who was from whom.He slowly fell to the back. Before he fell into a coma, he felt in a daze that someone behind him was supporting him. He heard the discussions of the people next to him, big and small, far and near, gradually drifting away with the blur of consciousness. Far.

When Xia Yubing woke up, what she saw was the yellowed ceiling.There is a smell of disinfectant water, which is probably a hospital.He glanced around the ward, and when his eyes fell on the guy sitting next to him sleeping with his head propped up, he was a little surprised——Qu and Dong?Wearing the military uniform on the boy gave the boy a terribly heroic look, and he looked at the man's crisp and clean profile calmly.Anyway, he had to admit, the guy was handsome, the kind of handsome he wanted.God damn it, if only he looked like this.Thinking of this, he stared blankly at Qu Hedong, his thoughts were flying all over the sky, and he didn't know where he went.

"you're awake?"

Xia Yubing woke up when he heard the sound, and happened to meet Qu Hedong's eyes.

"I'm not awake." Xia Yubing froze for a moment, closed his eyes, and spoke nonsense in a serious manner.

There was a low chuckle in his ear.

Hey, why don't you smile like this... Xia Yubing sneered, just now I thought this guy was a little pleasing to the eye... Let's forget it.

After a long time, seeing that Xia Yubing still hadn't opened his eyes, Qu Hedong smiled, "You won't continue to sleep again, will you?"

Xia Yubing opened his eyes when he heard the words, sat up slowly, rubbed his eyes, and looked straight at him.

"Don't you want to ask something?" Qu Hedong was slightly taken aback, then smiled again.

"Aren't you going to say something?" Xia Yubing kept his face paralyzed.

Feeling the coldness in Xia Yubing's tone, Qu Hedong was not angry: "You were scary just now, your face was as white as something, but the doctor said that you are overtired and have a slight heat stroke, so drink more water , just take a good rest. Besides, you don’t need to go to training today.”

Xia Yubing nodded, turned his face slightly, paused for a while, and said unnaturally: "Thank you just now."

Qu Hedong froze for a moment, then laughed again: "Thank you, we are all in the same dormitory, besides, I am standing right behind you," he paused, and then said: "And, I also By the way, I got your light, and I was lazy for a while."

Speaking of this, Xia Yubing didn't know what to say, and complained frantically in his heart, what's the matter with MD's embarrassing embarrassment?He simply got up and put on his shoes, wondering if he should ask the doctor for some sleeping pills, the quality of his sleep was really worrying, the thought came up, but he put it down immediately, forget it, what sleeping pills to take, suicide?

"Go back to the dormitory? Is your current state okay? How about I send you off." Qu Hedong stood up and looked at his still pale face.

"No need, I can do it myself." Xia Yubing lowered her head to tie her shoelaces, not seeing the frown on his face.

"Are you all right? Besides, if I go back so early and leave you alone, will you be complained by others and have no love from your classmates?"

"No, if you go back now, you can't guarantee that today's pacesetter will be yours." Xia Yubing stood up and started to walk out.

Qu and Dong didn't say anything more. There was a long and identical road from here to the training ground and the dormitory. The two walked side by side under the shade of the trees, feeling the hot air after leaving the air-conditioned room of the school hospital.

"By the way, where is your hat? Did you forget it?" Qu Hedong said suddenly.

Xia Yubing opened his eyes slightly, "Probably." This habit of forgetting everything.

"It's so hot now, you better stop exercising, wait for me here, I'll run back and get it for you."

Xia Yubing didn't refuse this time, and simply nodded his head neatly. If possible, he really didn't want to move.

Watching Qu and Dong come back, he stood there and waited for a while, then slowly moved forward step by step, a few steps, a stop, a few steps, a stop, this is what he often does when waiting for people. consciously do.Not far ahead is the corner of the road.

After an unknown amount of time, he heard footsteps getting closer behind him, so he speeded up a little, raised his head, and turned the corner carelessly. Then, he saw a scene that he would never forget for the rest of his life.

A white shadow fell from the sky, its fluttering sleeves fluttered like a butterfly, he heard the dull sound when the body collided with the asphalt ground, the sound exploded in his mind, and he was stunned. At that moment, his heart seemed to stop beating, and he stood there stiffly, at a loss, his widened eyes were as white as fog and could not see the focus.

Blood oozed out from under the man, blurred, and was bright red.

"Don't look."

Someone blindfolded his eyes from behind, and he felt the scorching temperature of another person's palm coming from his eyes, so he reacted, pushed the person behind him away, bent over and squatted down, and retched.
