escape the moon

Shen Yizhen woke up on time at 06:30 the next morning, stood up and realized that the bed was not her own, but later realized that it was in the official residence, and her head automatically played back the scene where Xiaoshan carried him to the bed last night, and was kissed on the forehead.At the beginning of a new day, he was hit in the head by a terrible memory, which made him shiver.

After washing up, I went to Alice's room first. The nanny was braiding the little girl's hair. She put some rouge on her little face, which made her face look good.Shen Yizhen touched her forehead, it was still a little hot.

The nanny said: "I took my body temperature in the morning, and I still had a fever. The doctor said that I should take half a tablet of antipyretics after breakfast, and there should be no problem."

The little girl looked a little nervous, Shen Yizhen squatted down and straightened her collar: "Our baby is strong and brave, isn't he? My brother is with you, don't be afraid."

Xiaoshan was flipping through the newspaper at the dining table, and he had already finished breakfast when the two came down from the stairs.Shen Yizhen didn't want to sit next to him, so she pulled Alice into the middle, deliberately separating a seat.

Xiaoshan didn't seem to notice: "The broadcasting team said that some camera positions have been adjusted. You should go there early and get familiar with the new camera positions. Don't miss the camera when the time comes. It will be broadcast live nationwide, and hundreds of millions of people will watch it."

"I haven't asked the director for leave yet, isn't that bad?" Shen Yizhen said.His official position is still in the secretary's office, and he came here temporarily to help yesterday. There is no official document or administrative order to transfer him.Besides, it's better not to talk about this kind of thing on the phone, it's more respectful to face to face.

Xiaoshan frowned: "There's no need to go, I'll talk to your director."

Shen Yizhen wanted to say more.Alice couldn't reach the jam, so she stumbled and stood up from the chair. He quickly reached out to help her get it, and spread it on the bread.The little girl likes the sweetness of jam, so Shen Yizhen didn't forget to mash the half tablet of antipyretic medicine and put it in the porridge and took the opportunity to feed it.He thought to himself, it is really impossible to apologize to the director after the conference is over.

Xiaoshan is the superior now, he dare not speak too seriously, but what should be said is still to be said——

"It's not appropriate to leave suddenly. I'll hand over the work in two days. Since I've accepted the girl's business, I will definitely do it to the end. Please respect me, work is work, and I will take care of personal matters. ,you do not need to worry."

Xiaoshan seemed to have heard a very interesting story: "Okay, I will definitely respect you and promise the president."

Shen Yizhen got a headache from seeing his hippie smile, and only prayed that he could listen a little bit.

When we set off, there was a huge group of people. There were six bodyguards, two nannies and two staff members from the consulting department. The little girl was a little scared being surrounded by so many strangers. Willing to let go.

In fact, Shen Yizhen himself was also nervous. He had never participated in such a big meeting in person, so he usually just watched the live video in the secretary's room.More than half of the scene was composed of command posts, state affairs buildings, and high-level executives from all walks of life, or the heads and key members of core departments, and being with these people was stressful.He is used to keeping a low profile in the secretary's office, and never likes to join in the fun.

The backstage was a mess, and all kinds of people were yelling and running quickly in the corridor. Shen Yizhen happened to meet the director, and went over to apologize.The director was obviously unhappy, and his tone of voice was not good.

"I received a call from General Xiao, and he appointed you, so you can go there." The director looked him up and down coldly: "I can't see it, usually he is silent, and he hit Gao Zhi'er quietly. But I also advise you that this errand is not easy to handle."

He wished he could not climb up, it was Gao Zhi who tied him up!

Shen Yizhen smiled apologetically: "You misunderstood, it was really an accident, General Xiao and I had only met once before, so we didn't even know each other."

"Then why did he name you?" The director didn't believe it.

Pick the soft persimmons and pinch them.Shen Yizhen feigned anger and said: "When I got off work on Friday, I missed his old man's phone call. On Sunday, I was called to the mansion, and the draft was changed to two o'clock in the morning. I only said this morning that I would go to the venue with me. I said I would I came back to ask you for instructions, but he refused. Alas, it’s fine if he doesn’t take us seriously, even you are so disrespectful, are you serving the country, how can you do such an absolute thing?”

If there is a chance, he should be cheated or cheated. He is not so easy to bully.

The director's face turned black all of a sudden: "Okay! Got it."

Shen Yizhen didn't think it was a big deal to join in the fun: "Don't be angry, he just came to the command post, and he may not have time to inquire about you."

"Why should I be angry? His old man has a lot of things to do every day, and it is a great honor for the people under my command to fall into his favor!" The director even looked at Shen Yizhen with unlucky eyes: "Don't embarrass the secretary office, go Go."

The meeting outside is about to start.The little girl clamored to read it, but Shen Yizhen was worried that she was not familiar with the manuscript, and didn't want to let her make trouble, so she asked her to read it again. She triumphantly covered the manuscript and began to recite silently, fluently.Shen Yizhen was surprised and really underestimated her memory.In the end, I had to repeatedly ask her to promise not to make noise, and quietly hid under the table to watch.

In the square crowded with thousands of people, the tide of sound rose and fell for a while. Some people carried flags, some pulled up wide banners, and some people painted their faces gray.Suddenly, a hoarse voice pierced through the sound wall, roaring "Long live the motherland".It was like an atomic bomb, which instantly triggered a landslide and earth-shattering response.

In the middle of the playground in front of them was a huge gray moon flag on a blue background.The moon was motionless, lying on the ground coldly. The color also has its origins. It uses 20.00% gray to ensure the contrast with the background color. Black and white are taboo. Later, someone proposed to use a golden moon or scrambled eggs. Bright yellow, the color is brighter, and it is easier to distinguish on the battlefield.This plan received a lot of support, and in the end they had to hold a public vote for the plan between Huang Yue and Hui Yue, and Hui Yue won with a slight advantage.

"Uncle Xiao is on stage!" The little girl called out.

Shen Yizhen twisted her neck to watch.Xiaoshan didn't wear a military uniform, but changed into a suit, a black long coat with a silver silk scarf, he didn't look like a soldier at all, his face was enough to attract attention, and wearing it like this was simply provocative.

As soon as he appeared on the stage, thousands of people cheered and shouted, and the sea of ​​flags swaggered.

Alice whispered, "Uncle Xiao is so amazing."

Shen Yizhen snorted softly: "Pretending to be."

He noticed that Feng Jiling, who was sitting next to the president in the first row at the front of the stage, showed a satisfied expression towards Xiaoshan.

It is a good thing for Feng that Xiaoshan regained the 47th district, right?Now I am afraid that even the president may not be able to get such a high voice when he comes to power.After all, it is a time of war, and soldiers are the protagonists.The president sits in an air-conditioned cool office all day, how can it compare with the soldiers working hard on the front line?The more popular Xiaoshan is, the more secure Feng Jiling will be sitting on the [-]th floor of the command post.

Putting aside subjective impressions, Shen Yizhen has to admit that Xiaoshan is indeed up to the task.Being able to win battles and stabilize the morale of the army, even though he is arrogant and domineering in the army, the image of him as an upright hero has always been deep in the hearts of outsiders.It's not easy, Xiaoshan hasn't read much, let alone a cultural person, and he easily reveals his secrets when he speaks, but he is not stage-frightened when he comes on stage, and he speaks in a graceful manner, and he is more beautiful than many people Shen Yizhen knows in the command post rigorous.This can only be achieved by practicing with Feng Jiling for a long time.Shen Yizhen believes that even if the people in the command post don't like him now, as long as he is given enough time, he can still get along like a fish in water.

Human hearts are fickle.

According to the procedure, the national flag should be raised and the national anthem sung first, then Feng Jiling would give a speech, and then the president would give a speech. It would take at least two hours to add up all the bits and pieces.Alice felt drowsy after hearing it, and she didn't want to stay outside any longer once the novelty wore off.Shen Yizhen was worried that she was still sick, and carried her back to the lounge to sleep, only waking her up 10 minutes before the performance.

The staff came to pick her up on the stage, and Shen Yizhen followed the audience, wishing that she could go up for her.Alice stood timidly on the empty stage, looking even smaller. Tens of thousands of people were waiting for this little girl to speak, hundreds of millions of people looked at her, and every finger and every strand of hair wished they could see clearly.She fixed her eyes on the teleprompter, smiled stiffly, bowed—

"Hi everyone, I'm Alice."

Someone immediately stood up and applauded, and another person shouted her name, leading to enthusiastic cheers.The little girl was taken aback - she didn't have this kind of reaction during the rehearsal - she squeezed her skirt with her hands hidden under the podium, and she didn't know how to speak, so she couldn't help but look up at the host.Xiaoshan immediately received the message, he saw her sweating, and worried that she would faint because of nervousness.

The young general squatted down decisively, held the little girl's hand, and asked——

"Baby, how old are you?"

"I am ten years old."

"So many uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters came to see you today, are you happy?"

"High... happy!"

"Is there anything you want to say to uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters?"

She had only recited the full text more than an hour ago, and now she only remembered sporadic fragments.Fortunately, the teleprompter has a large and clear font size, so she only needs to read word by word: "...Although I lost my parents, I am not alone. The nurses and sisters have taken great care of me, and the commander and Mr. President also came in person Visit me. I also want to thank the soldiers who rescued me, they protected me in such a dangerous environment, and gave me the opportunity to stand here..."

Speaking of this, the pupils made her eyes a little itchy, but she couldn't rub them, and could only let the physiological tears slowly fill the eye sockets: "Uncle Commander said, I will be able to return to class soon. I am very happy I want to go to school, make new friends, and go back to my normal life. I don’t think I’m different from other people. I’m still an ordinary primary school student. The most important thing for me now is to study hard and do it when I grow up. A person who is independent and useful to society. I want to be an angel in white, save more people who have been hurt in wars, and repay the kindness that society has shown me.”

Everyone stood up and applauded her, and the thunderous applause became stronger and stronger one after another.Xiaoshan took her sweaty little hand and whispered words of praise in her ear.She was sweating profusely, her forehead and back were almost wet.

Shen Yizhen breathed a sigh of relief in the audience.

He couldn't bear to listen any longer, and he wanted to talk about the details of the day of the explosion later, so he found a bathroom to avoid this part.At this time, the toilet was very empty. He wiped his face in front of the sink, and Alice's immature voice could be heard from far outside the window. He looked up at himself in the mirror, but what he thought of was the little girl wrinkling her facial features. Face.

He didn't know if it was any good for Alice or not.To put it mildly, she is now the daughter of the nation, a pain in the hearts of the whole society, but to put it mildly, she is just a propaganda tool.In front of hundreds of millions of viewers, let an eight-year-old girl cut open her wounds, inspiring people's hearts, what kind of war is it that needs such a platform?She may be ignorant now and think it's nothing, but what about when she grows up?She watched herself repeating her tragedy in front of the people over and over again, saying how her mother died and how her father died. Would she be happy?or will you regret it?

A voice said in Shen Yizhen's head that she had no choice.She is considered lucky, at least she has this chance to live a better life, so many families displaced by the war, so many orphans, is it good to be like them?But just use yourself, who doesn't live like this?Look at Xiaoshan, he is still alive as a general.

The carnival outside became more enthusiastic.

Shen Yizhen knew that her debut was a success.
