Chapter 5 Decisions

"If evil is a gorgeous and cruel movement, its final scene will be written by myself, the light of the morning light, the wind drys the last line of sorrow, and the black dream is dyed with peace." - Jay Chou's "Chapter 7 of the Night"

Since Wei Chen has made a decision, the next step is to implement it. The minimum age required for military service is 18 years old; so how can I get myself adult and be qualified to join the army? Wei Chen has been thinking about this issue.

"Chenchen, what are you thinking about? You're having dinner." At dinner time that day, my aunt was holding bowls and chopsticks in her hand to greet Wei Chen for dinner. Seeing him looking thoughtful, she asked.

"Oh! It's okay!" Wei Chen replied casually. Suddenly, he thought, "Yes! Why didn't I expect it? Aunt! Why didn't you ask my aunt to help?"

After dinner, Wei Chen pretended to be nothing and asked his aunt:

"Aunt! Do you know all the people who join the military office?"

"Yes! I may not know anything else, but over the years of accumulation, I basically know the basic recruitment office, the recruitment and the sending soldiers. What's wrong? I suddenly asked about this?" said my aunt.

"Oh! It's nothing, I'll just ask!" Wei Chen is not a child who is good at lying.

"Oh! It's not right!" My aunt saw some clues keenly and asked, "To be honest! What's going on?"

"Since you have seen it, I can only tell the truth! But you have to agree to me first. Don't be surprised and angry if I said something!" Wei Chen then told the truth, carefully observing his aunt's expression. After his aunt nodded, Wei Chen told his aunt about her decision and everything that happened in the bank yesterday.

"No wonder you suddenly asked me yesterday, 'What is a soldier'. Now I understand!" My aunt said with a little relief, "But you are less than the age of being a soldier?"

"So I hope you can help me realize this ideal!" Wei Chen carefully observed the aunt's expression.

"This is not OK! Let's talk about it when you turn 18 in two years!" My aunt understood what Wei Chen meant, but she still refused.

"Please! Aunt! You must help me!" Wei Chen was a little anxious when he heard that his aunt refused, but he was not the one who gave up easily, so he said to his aunt sincerely:

"Actually, I want to join the army, but the reason is very simple! On the day my uncle died, I really don't understand what I said was scolded by my grandfather and what my grandfather scolded me. However, the company commander's desperate behavior shocked me! More of this was left with great doubts in my heart: Why can he make that choice so without hesitation, and the first thing he thought about was to let others live first? I thought about this for a long time, but I couldn't figure it out; since I couldn't figure it out, let me find the answer through my own experience! What do you think about aunt?"

My aunt did not answer his words directly (my uncle's sacrifice touched my aunt a lot), but lowered her head with tears in her eyes, then sighed and looked up at Wei Chen and said:

"But have you figured it out? The road to choose will be very long and very hard. The price you have to pay will be dozens of times or even more than ordinary people. Wouldn't you regret it?"

"Aunt! Actually, I didn't think so much, I just wanted to find this answer! My uncle once said: 'When everyone was born, his fate was decided!' Since it was already destined, I could only accept it. I just want to find that answer by myself!" Wei Chen said firmly.

"You have to go to the end of the path you choose! Since you have decided, I will help you!" My aunt finally agreed to Wei Chen's request.

"Thank you aunt!" Wei Chen almost jumped happily when he heard this, but he still suppressed the joy in his heart.

"Next, you can go to your school with peace of mind and wait for my news!" said my aunt.

The next morning, my aunt called a few phone calls in advance and took Wei Chen out. The police station first went to the police station and met Director Li; after leaving the police station, he went to the county people's armed forces department!…
