Lin Hai drove back to the security company, he had to rest early, and then it was another busy day.
When Lin Hai was sleeping in the middle of the night, he was awakened by the ring of his mobile phone. The ring sounded very harsh. It showed a strange foreign number. When he picked it up, he heard a low voice over there: "is it team Lin?"
Lin Hai sat up for a moment, this voice, he obviously will not forget: "old seven, are you old seven?"
"Team Lin, it's really you. I finally found you." That old seven's voice sounds very excited, but also with depression.
"What's the matter? Is something wrong with you? " Lin Haidi realized that it was wrong.
Then he listened to the old seven on the phone. He had sat up straight and said seriously, "OK, I know. Old seven, wait a minute. I'll be right there."
Lao Qi said: "no, team Lin, it's too late to disturb you. I really don't need to..."
"Come on, old seven, if you're a brother, you'll put all this nonsense away for me." Lin Hai said solemnly, "wait."
Then he immediately dressed up, quickly went downstairs to the parking lot, continued to drive the broken pickup truck, and disappeared into the vast night.
His destination is the first people's Hospital of Donghai city. The man he called just now, nicknamed Lao Qi, was his comrade in arms when he was in the Special Forces Department. Today, he received this call and learned that Lao Qi had retired from the army.
He was very shocked by the news, because the people trained by the Special Forces Department said that they could not be too many. After many years of military career, they had carried out many special tasks, and they were covered with numerous scars and meritorious deeds. Generally speaking, even when they reached their age or were unable to bear the physical load, they still stayed in the army to be instructors or others, There are few retired people like him.
And we are brothers who are brothers who are brothers who are brothers who are brothers. So Lin Hai is also very clear that Lao Qi's family conditions are very poor. At that time, every time before going out to perform a task, everyone would write a suicide note to prevent the situation that they can't come back, and they would ask each other to take care of their family members. Everyone has no other words. They are all brothers who have lived like this. Even if they haven't met each other's families, they have been treated as their own families for a long time.
And Lao Qi is very active in every task, and the number of two partners is also the most. About this situation, he said to Lin Hai: "team Lin, don't worry, we will guarantee that everything will be OK, because I mean to come back alive together. My family's condition is poor, so we can't leave this burden behind and drag everyone down at that time."
Because of this, his friendship with Lin Hai is also very deep. For those like them, they came out early to serve as soldiers. Basically, only the way to serve as soldiers is the most suitable. So he never thought that Lao Qi would choose to retire soon after he left.
The situation of Laoqi is different from him. Lin Hai thinks that the time is almost up, and his ability has been trained. To a certain extent, he has fulfilled the expectation of his grandfather and father to protect his country. So he wants to come back to find out about the veterans group.
But Lao Qi was forced to do nothing. After Lin Hai left, he was also injured when he was on a mission. When he was rescued, something happened at home. His father had a car accident and his brain tissue was seriously damaged. He had been living in the hospital and didn't wake up.
Lao Qi also has three younger brothers and sisters. The eldest is only in junior high school. The family life is mainly borne by his father. For their family, the sky is falling.
As the eldest son of the family, Lao Qi can only choose to retire from the army to shoulder the burden of the family.
The hospital conditions at home are not good, and his father's injury is particularly serious. Lao Qi spent a lot of money to transfer his father to the hospital in Donghai city. When he called Lin Hai, he was in the ward, and his father's condition deteriorated.
Lin Hai didn't dare to delay for a moment. The man didn't want to cry. But Lao Qi's voice on the phone just now had a lump in his throat, and he could fully understand it. After all, for him, his father is always the spiritual pillar of his heart and the most important person to him. Even if he doesn't know where he is, his feelings will never change, So when you think about the situation when Lao Qi comes back, you can imagine his inner pain.
Lin Haifeng rushed to the hospital and found Lao Qi's father's ward. At a glance, he saw Lao Qi sitting on the bench in the corridor, tall figure like wood. When Lin Hai came up to him, he didn't respond. This should not have happened to people who came from the Special Forces Department.
Or Lin Hai came up and patted him on the shoulder: "old seven, be strong."
Lao Qi suddenly woke up from a dream and saw Lin Hai stand in front of him. Without saying a word, he hugged Lin Hai tightly: "team Lin, you're here..."
"Without team Lin, there will be no team leader or soldiers when they come out and leave. We are all brothers. Just call me brother in the future. Anything, I'm here. "
In fact, Lin Hai is a bit of a bargain, because he is always the youngest in the Special Forces Department. However, his conduct, including training and tasks, is very reassuring, just like a big brother. Therefore, everyone is very impressed with him. Regardless of his age, everyone is willing to call him brother.
Although the time of separation was only a few months, it was not long, but for both of them, it seemed that many years had passed. Lin Hai also held Lao Qi in his arms. When he thought about those people in the Special Forces Department, he even had a sour nose.
Two people finally let go, Lin Hai is still holding old seven's hand: "nothing, really did not expect to see you."
"Brothers, there's nothing to be afraid of together. Even if the sky collapses, we can carry it together."
He said, old seven eyes red again, Lin Hai gave him not light not heavy fist: "like a man, there is no barrier. What's the situation with uncle now
On the phone, Lao Qi just said that his father was hospitalized in a car accident. As soon as Lin Hai heard the news, he came to the hospital immediately, so he didn't know exactly what the situation was. However, after listening to Lao Qi, he realized that the situation was much more serious than he thought.
Seven father's car accident has been nearly a month, has been in a severe coma. Lao Qi was in a hurry as soon as he knew the news, so he had to retire from the army. He's coming home to take care of his father,
However, the reality he faced was much more difficult than he thought. His father's injury was very serious, and the hospital at home was no longer able to treat him. Lao Qi was a dutiful son, especially he didn't take care of his father for a day in the army these years, so he said anything to save his father's life. At all costs, he tried to transfer his father to the best hospital in Donghai city, All the money went in to save my father's life.
However, the weather didn't suit people's wishes. His father didn't wake up until now. He had to live in the intensive care unit and rely on medicine and equipment to support his life. It cost tens of thousands of yuan a day. Soon, Lao Qi ran out of money and his family borrowed it everywhere. However, the neighbors in the village had the same family conditions as him. After borrowing it again, it was only enough for his father to stay in hospital for a few days, It's just a drop in the bucket.
