Counterfeit Hero

When Tian Xingjian woke up from a hangover with a splitting headache, he found himself lying in a five-square-meter room. Damn it, who put me in a solitary room? The fat man screamed at the top of his lungs. Except for a ray of light coming from under the crack of the door, there were no lights or windows in the solitary room.

He sat on the ground and tried hard to think about what happened yesterday. Drinking. What about before drinking? He stayed for a moment and shook his head. The meeting between An Lei and Milan inevitably came to mind again. Fatty now really hoped that this was just a dream, or that he could turn back time.

After a moment of confusion, Tian Xingjian suddenly felt enlightened after a hangover. Everyone has the right to pursue their own happiness throughout their lives. An Lei has it, Milan has it, and he has it too. No one can live without anyone else. , things are irreversible, he has ruined himself by being indecisive. Even if he goes back in time, he will not be able to reject An Lei after meeting Milan. He still has to do this again. He slowly lay on the ground and tried his best to make himself Be happy, don't worry anymore, feel relieved, a somewhat bitter relief, finally relieved.

I don’t know how long it took, but the door of the solitary room suddenly opened. A military police lieutenant colonel walked in and said to Yukiken Tian: “Get up and follow me!” The fat man jumped up and asked: “Why did you take me here?” Why don’t I just drink some wine when I’m locked up? I’m not a soldier in a combat unit in combat readiness.”

The lieutenant colonel of the military police couldn't laugh or cry. He couldn't help thinking that the fat man could not remember anything. He pushed the fat man out of the solitary room and shouted: "You think you just drank some wine. Not only did you seriously violate military regulations and fight, you also caused thirty-two People were injured to varying degrees, including twelve police officers and nine special police officers. What’s even worse is that you openly spat at General Mihailovich, why do you think you were put in solitary confinement?”

The fat man pointed to his nose in disbelief and said: "Are you sure that the guy you are talking about is me? I can tell you that I am naturally timid and will not be scared!" The military police lieutenant colonel was so angry that he acted so boldly. The bastard actually said with a straight face that he was a coward and was too lazy to talk nonsense with such a guy. He scolded: "Leave quickly! The law enforcement officer is waiting for you!"

The fat man was startled by the word "law enforcement officer" and asked relentlessly: "Is it really me who did what you said? No, I am an honest and honest boy. I am nicknamed Honest and Lovely Little Man. I never get into fights." You must have made a mistake about the fight...that spit, where did I spit General?"

The military police lieutenant colonel really wanted to escort this fat man back to the solitary room again. Damn you, honest and cute young man. Is there such a fat young man?

The fat man followed the military police lieutenant colonel to another room, chattering all the way. Several law enforcement officers from the military court and a colonel from the political department were already waiting there. As soon as the fat man entered the door, he was identified by a set of procedures. What happened next? , several law enforcement officers ignored the frightened and pitiful fat man, expressionlessly took out a document and read it from the text for a long time, then took the fat man's hand and put their fingerprints on the electronic document book.

The fat man was stunned for a long time before he could react. In short, he could sum it up in eight words: merit and demerit equalize, expulsion from the military. When he came to his senses, he almost wanted to hug these law enforcement officers and kiss them! How could such a good thing happen to me? As for the mission behind enemy lines, I will stop it from now on!

After walking out of the gate of the Military Police Department, the fat man looked at the bright sun and felt a little confused. He didn't know where to go. He had been expelled from the research room. How to face Milan in the laboratory? How to face An Lei at home? , he suddenly thought, what would he do if the military really sent An Lei to go behind enemy lines? The fat man suddenly felt a little flustered. He was at a loss and didn't know what to do. He stood blankly under the sun, squinting and looking at the sun until a halo appeared in front of his eyes, with a confused look on his face.

The fat man walked down the steps slowly, and saw Boswell and Russell waving to him under the shade of the trees in the square garden in front. How could these two unrelated people get together? The fat man walked over strangely, and Bo Swale looked at the disciple whose clothes were dirty and still had blood stains on his face. He sighed and said, "Let's go. General Russell informed me about your matter. You are from the laboratory. Recently, Help in the academy first, and General Russell will make arrangements for the rest."

The fat man opened his mouth in a daze, looked at Russell who was smiling at the side, and thought to himself: "You still have to make arrangements, are you really not going to let me go?" Russell seemed to know what he was thinking, and smiled lightly and said: "In public If you make a mistake on occasion, the military department cannot cover it up. Military regulations are military regulations after all. You need to accept punishment. It just so happens that we are rearranging your identity during this period. You already know the subsequent tasks. It is your turn to complete them. You have to go, it’s your responsibility!”

"Responsibility!" Fatty shouted angrily: "There are thousands of people in this world, am I the only one missing! Do you think I am a hero or a savior?" Russell shook his head and said: " Not like that!" The fat man was stunned for a moment and said: "Then why did you choose me? Can a person like me be trusted?" Russell said: "Times make heroes, you must have heard this saying, right? You Think about it, how many times in life do you have the opportunity to choose yourself? It’s not me who chooses you, it’s the current situation!”

The fat man waved his hands and said: "You don't need to tell me these big things. I only know that my nature is not suitable for being a hero. I am just a coward! I am afraid of death, I don't want to fight, I hate war, and I know my own responsibilities." Just survive in troubled times and protect your loved ones! I can only bear so much responsibility. The most heroic person for the country and the people is not me!"

Russell shook his head and said: "There is no shortage of heroes like you. As I said just now, it's not that I want to choose you, but that you appear in this position at this time, so this responsibility is yours! You are not You think you are so cowardly, but in a desperate situation, your explosive power is greater than anyone else's, and the power of fear is far more powerful than the power of courage! Do you know the code name Gacharin's military headquarters gave you?"

Tian Xingjian asked strangely: "What code name?"

"Variables." Russell looked at him seriously and said earnestly: "Fundamentally, each of us is a variable, and you played the biggest role in the past period. With your deduction ability, You should know the variables, contingencies, and position in the war situation. Without your participation, I would still be the general of the Gacharin Empire. The Federation would have already lost the entire Atlantis star field. Your friend, your Relatives may have died in the war, haven't you realized your own role at all?"

Looking at Tian Xingjian's dazed expression, Russell said: "You helped me make up my mind to go from Gacharin to Leray, and now you wave your hand and say you quit, do you think I will agree? In this world, In this war, everyone has their place. I can come to the Federation, why can't you go behind enemy lines? I know your nature. You can't be a strategizing general, and you are even more timid than ordinary soldiers. But you have power that none of us have. You live a more real life than all of us. You know what you want to do, you know what you can do, and you know what your own weaknesses are. If nothing else, at least you will always Safety comes first, that’s why I asked you to go to the Freedom Front!”

Seeing the fat man's silence, Russell sighed: "I won't force you, you still have a lot of time to think about it, you don't need to be a general, you just need to be your soldier and become a variable in this troubled world! "

Russell turned around and left. Boswell patted the silent Tian Xingjian on the shoulder and said with a smile: "The general is right, everyone has their own position. You just need to understand your own position. Follow me first." Go back to the college, the dormitory has been rearranged for you, it's time for you to fulfill your responsibilities as an assistant professor."

"Dorm?" Fatty asked tentatively: "Didn't you arrange for me to be in the laboratory?" Boswell said expressionlessly: "Of course not, I will arrange you in the dormitory building, just opposite Milan's room. .”

The fat man was startled and said anxiously: "But..." Boswell waved his hand and said: "No need to but, it has been arranged." He smiled strangely and continued: "As for you and Milan , and the matter of Major An Lei, I know everything. You should be more relaxed. In this world, as long as you have the ability, it’s not a big deal to have an extra wife. As long as everyone is willing, as long as you can give them what they want at the same time. In essence, there is no conflict between a satisfied woman and another satisfied woman. Of course, it depends on the woman's desire. So..." Boswell smiled and said: "I never I’m not looking for a woman who can’t satisfy her desires. A woman who is too possessive is not suitable for me!”

The fat man stared at Boswell with wide eyes. He could no longer describe his shock. Is this an old man who only knows how to immerse himself in research? Seeing his strange expression, Boswell couldn't help asking in a low voice: "Aren't you unable to satisfy even two women?" The fat man said angrily: "Of course not!" Boswell smiled slightly and said: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with that. Sorry, there is a medicine I secretly developed in the laboratory, how many pills can I give you if it doesn’t work?”

The fat man finally surrendered and said with a wry smile: "Teacher, do you have to make me lose my beauty?"
