Chapter 2

A little bit of bean sized raindrops fell through the clouds and hit me heavily in the face. It was cool and refreshing. At the next moment, more raindrops fell from the air. Rain hit on the dry soil, the kind of soil just wet soil smell immediately into the nose.

it's raining.

Looking through the branches and leaves of the trees and staring at the gray sky, I thought to myself: it's raining at last. It's time to cool down Moscow, which has been hot and dry for a month and a half.

It was quiet around. I listened carefully. I didn't hear any other sound except the sound of the rain and the slight clatter of the leaves. Where has Andre gone? Where have so many swimmers gone just now?

I moved my body and wanted to sit up. Unexpectedly, as soon as I moved, there was a deep pain in my abdomen, which made me cry. Didn't I hit my head just now? How could my abdomen hurt so much? Did my stomach knock on the stone again when I fell down?

"Rita." With my appearance, a rough and old face suddenly appeared in front of my eyes, which startled me. He had two upturned goatee, and even wore an exaggerated old Soviet cornice hat with four triangles on the collar. This strange dress was the Soviet dress during the patriotic war. Where is this? Did I accidentally fall into the set of a film about the patriotic war? And this strange man, who is he calling? Rita, is that a woman's name? Oh, my God, don't call me again. You know, I'm a man to the core.

"Zhun Wei... Comrade..." and "I" actually spit out two such Russian words. Ah, what the hell is going on?! I haven't even opened my mouth. I'm not talking. I'm not talking. Who's talking?

"How are you feeling?" He asked with concern.

"Genoa died?"“ I asked again. Who's Genoa? The name sounds strange. I don't think it's someone I know.

The brigadier nodded: "now we have nothing, no guns, no bullets, and now we have no Genoa." When I heard the conversation, I felt that I was hallucinating. I wanted to bite my finger. As soon as I raised my hand, I felt pain in my abdomen, reminding me that everything in front of me was real.

"Suddenly... Dead?"

He pulled off his hat, held it tightly in his hands, and beat his head hard: "I hurt, my heart hurts, Rita, it hurts! I hurt you. I hurt five of you. But for what, for a dozen German devils? " Hearing what he said, I suddenly felt like vomiting blood. My God, how come there are German devils again? What's the matter? Did I cross?

"Why do you say that... It's obvious, it's not your fault." Because of the excitement, my breathing became short. Hearing this, I understand how it's going on. It seems that there are two souls in my body. One is me. Can I hear or speak; The soldier who is talking with the soldier in front of us should be the female soldier named Rita, the original owner of the body.

"Maybe, but in the future? Can you understand why you have to die then? Why can't I let these German soldiers go? Or, I'll take you all the way west from Xiniu Xingling to find the major and our troops. Maybe someone will ask me: why don't you die, but give our mothers to death? The worst part is why I survived, if I did. "

"No, don't do that." Because of the pain, Rita couldn't help getting up again and said softly, "I'm going to die."

"No, Rita, you'll survive."

"You asked me that day: How did you meet the German devils in the woods?"

Hearing Lida's question, the old brigadier nodded. It seemed that he always wanted to know the answer.

"I went to the city to see my son. He is three years old and his name is Alek. He lives in my mother's house. My mother is very ill. Maybe before the end of the war, she will..."

"Don't worry, Rita. I get it all."

Listening to Rita continue to cry in pain, the brigadier put the crumpled cap back on, opened her hand covering the wound, looked at the wound in her abdomen, and then grasped Rita's hand tightly.

"Vaskov!" Rita gave a hard cry. It turns out that the brigadier's name is vaskov, but how does it sound so familiar?

"Call me fiddot, or my nickname, as my mother did: Feijia."

"Feijia, can you... Can you grant my last request?"

"No They talk like riddles. I can't understand them at all.

"I really hurt. I don't even have the strength to speak..."

"I'll reconnoitre and come back immediately, and then I'll carry you back to my troops."

"It's too late. Take out the pistol... "Lida said weakly.

Brigadier vascoft unconsciously covered the holster.

"Do you want me to die of pain?" Vaskov looked at Rita in consternation as she became weaker and weaker. She really can't. You can see that. But let him shoot Rita himself, he can't do it, he can't do it“ Or let the German devils beat me to death? " Vaskov shook his head in pain. Rita said to vaskov in a commanding voice, "well, you come." I know why Rita made this decision. I can feel her injury clearly. If there is no miracle, she will have no hope. At the moment, I feel like I'm burning on a brand iron. There seems to be a cold bottomless hole in front of me, waiting for me. Death is sitting in the deepest darkness. I can almost feel the cold breath of death. Seeing that vaskov refused to start, she said weakly, "gun." Hearing this word, I immediately panicked, no, Rita wants to commit suicide, since I can feel all the pain on her body, then if she committed suicide, I am not finished. I yelled at her: no! However, he could not make a sound and could only watch the development of the situation. Vaskov could not hold on any longer. He slowly took out his pistol and handed it to Rita. But Rita didn't even have the strength to take the gun. As soon as she took the gun, it fell to the ground“ Help me. " Rita's voice was so faint at the moment that she could hardly hear. Vaskov bent down to pick up the gun from the ground, then let it go in a panic, and the gun fell to the ground again“ Feijia, are you scared Rita was smiling sadly at her. Vaskov picked up the pistol again. He opened the magazine, looked at it and said, "there are only two bullets left." Rita closed her eyes for a moment and said in a weak voice, "put... The gun, put the gun at me..." vaskov put the gun at Rita's temple. She motioned to him to put her finger in the trigger. Vaskov did it again in silence. Rita closed her eyes with satisfaction. When she opened them again, she suddenly said to vaskov, "kiss me." Vaskov leaned awkwardly down and touched Rita's forehead with his lips. Although vaskov was kissing Rita, I felt a chill in Rita's body. I couldn't stand a same-sex kiss“ It's amazing... "Lida closed her eyes again and spat out the last two words of her short life:" go. " Vaskov took two steps into the distance, sat down under the tree and crouched with his back to Rita. This plot is so familiar. There is a feeling of deja vu. This idea suddenly flashed through my mind, but I can't remember where I have seen it. Rita closed her eyes, tears streaming from the corners of her eyes, and slowly pulled the trigger with her fingers“ "Poof," a dull gunshot went off in my ear, and then I lost consciousness again.
