    Chapter 45

    At half past five in the afternoon, the sun is still hanging in the western sky.  The trees outside the window cast shadows inside the house.

    The walls of the room are very thick and the windows are small, making it cool and sheltered from the sun.

    It¡¯s mid-December now, and the temperature has dropped a bit in the evening, so there¡¯s no need to turn on the fan.

    Song Ran had been running around all day, but she didn't want to rest.  Returning to this country, she felt uneasy and eager to go out for a walk.

    She quickly packed her luggage, put on her backpack and went out.

    As soon as the door was locked, someone came out from the dormitory opposite. She was an Asian woman, twenty-eight or nine years old, with a cigarette in her mouth.  The two looked at each other and gave each other a friendly smile.

    Although she is Asian, she has thick eyebrows, big eyes, high cheekbones, and a very European and American appearance.  Wearing a simple white T-shirt and jeans, she has a plump and sexy figure.

    Song Ran judged that her appearance was not Korean or Japanese, so she asked: "Chinese?"

    "Hmm." She took off the cigarette from her mouth and smiled, "Are you new here?"

    "Yes. I just arrived today." Song Ran's face lit up when he met his colleague, and asked, "Which TV station are you from?"

    The other party¡¯s eyebrows flew up and he chuckled: ¡°Are you a reporter? I am Doctors Without Borders.¡ª¡ªPei Xiaonan.¡±

    "Ah, my name is Song Ran. Yes, reporter."

    The two of them walked through the cool corridor and went down the stairs together.

    Out of professional habit, Song Ran observed her inadvertently.  Pei Xiaonan breathed out a puff of cigarette, her posture was charming and cheerful, walked around the corner, pressed the cigarette she had only taken two or three puffs into the sand on the top of the trash can, and said, "You are a doctor after all, so I won't let you smoke second-hand smoke.  "

    Song Ran smiled: "It's okay."

    Pei Xiaonan waved to herself, disrupting the smoke floating in the air, and said: "You look very young. It takes courage to be a war reporter."

    Song Ran said: "You are also very good, come here to be a doctor."

    "Doctors are still safer than reporters. Aren't there rankings circulating here?" Pei Xiaonan laughed.

    "What?"

    ¡°Volunteers, Red Cross, Doctors Without Borders, peacekeepers, journalists, Cook Armed Forces.¡±

    When Song Ran heard the last four words, his smile faded and he asked, "Do you know anything about Cook's armed forces?"

    Pei Xiaonan said: "I know a little bit about them and have been in contact with the wounded. They are an armed army that specializes in fighting extremist organizations."

    Song Ran asked: "Where did the weapons come from?"

    "They are backed by patriots. Many Dongguo people who fled overseas, especially wealthy people and consortiums, gave them a lot of money and arms. The government also supported them, and a lot of military intelligence was shared with them. Moreover, the anti-government forces  We are not enemies with them either.¡±

    Song Ran nodded to express understanding and asked, "Where is your hospital?"

    "Do you want to interview me?" Pei Xiaonan smiled.

    "May I?"

    "What's wrong with that? I'm so bored. Do you want to go to the hospital now?"

    "No need yet, the sun hasn't set yet, I want to look around first. You tell me the address, and I will go find you later?"

    "Okay. But it's hard to find the road. There are no street signs on the street."

    Song Ran laughed: "I have stayed here for several months before, so I am very familiar with it."

    "That's fine. Over there at the old fire station."

    "Okay. Thank you." Song Ran asked, "I'm just about to drive out, do you want me to see you off?"

    "No need. I'm going with my colleagues."

    The two said goodbye downstairs.

    Song Ran started the car, drove out of the campus and headed east of the city.

    The concrete floor was bumpy and bumpy, and she slowly walked to the area of ??the city where she used to spend most of her time.

    Now, everything is devastated.

    The hotel where she stayed before leaving last year, an old building with more than 300 years of history, was in ruins.

    She still remembers the day the war started. She stood on the roof of the hotel and looked at the battlefield, but she only saw the blue sky and the bright sun.

    Song Ran stopped the car on the deserted street and identified the locations of the breakfast shop, mobile phone store, clothing store, and motorcycle repair shop.  Looking far away, she seemed to see a bus stopping in front of the stop sign. Primary school students carrying schoolbags jumped off the bus and ran to school chattering.

    It¡¯s just that the elementary school at the end of the road has been razed to the ground in reality.  The school gate, courtyard walls, and teaching buildings have long since disappeared.

    Song Ran recorded the ruins around himpassed, blocking the sight of the two of them.

    Li Zan glanced at the busy crowd and turned back.

    Song Ran stood on tiptoe and looked towards him. Another group of people were passing by. She was afraid of blocking the road, so she backed away four or five meters.  Wait for others to pass and take another look¡ª¡ª

    There is no one on the steps anymore.

    There is only the last faint glow left in the sky.

    ¡­¡­

    Song Ran held the camera and walked around the hospital aimlessly, but couldn't see it.

    After leaving the hospital, the group of Cook soldiers teasing her at the door had long disappeared.

    She walked slowly back to the car, leaned on the driver's seat and was stunned for a while.  In this moment, the sunset glow completely dissipated, and the color of the sky gradually deepened, and soon turned into blue-gray.

    The temperature also dropped rapidly.

    Song Ran was sitting in the car. She originally felt that her schedule was full, but now she felt a little at a loss.

    At this time, the phone rang. It was Jose, reminding her that there was a curfew at night and not to run around.  He will come to her tomorrow morning.

    Song Ran said yes and asked one more question: "Why are there Cook soldiers in Alara City? Are they going to help the government troops recover Alara City?"

    "No." Jose said, "The main reason is that there is a stronghold of the extremist organization in Aare City, which has been occupying the northwest suburbs. This time the government forces are gathering strength to fight a general offensive against the rebels. The Cook Army headquarters has also assembled  When the troops come, we might as well seize the stronghold together at that time. Clean it up."

    "When will the battle take place?"

    "It's only been two or three days. All the troops from the south have gathered towards the city of Aara."

    Song Ran had a general understanding and would wait to discuss more details after meeting Jose.

    She drove the car back to the university, and when she entered the dormitory building, she bought a Dongguo-style pancake for dinner from the housekeeper.

    She walked up the dark and heavy corridor, and saw soldiers coming downstairs and passing through.

    She walked into the corridor and heard strange noises.

    Song Ran didn¡¯t pay too much attention.  It wasn't until I returned to the dormitory and closed the door that I heard the sounds next door clearly, the sounds of making love, like intermittent threads, mixed with the sounds of crying in English.

    The bed board shook and hit the wall.

    Song Ran: ""

    ¡°She used to think that the people living in the building were all journalists, but when she arrived, she discovered that it was a girls¡¯ dormitory, where female doctors, nurses, and volunteers from various countries lived.

    There are often soldiers coming in and out.

    In the battlefield, you are faced with killing, fleeing, and despair all day long; at this time, ambiguity, impulse, and desire can easily breed.

    Maybe I can make a note in the book,

    Just as she was thinking about it, she suddenly remembered a scene - Pei Xiaonan put her arms around Li Zan's neck.

    ¡°Isn¡¯t that how she was attracted to Li Zan in the first place?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
