1. Sacrifice to save people / Long time no see

"Well, please sit down."

"It's fine without me, you sit down."

"Sit down, I'll get off at the next stop."

Xue Kaijie glanced at the high school student sitting in front of him, sighed, said thank you, and then sat down, holding the crutches in his arms, trying not to hinder others.

"Gwangyang Station is here, passengers please get off..."

The radio on the subway sounded, and the crowds were rushing. Xue Kaijie turned his head to take another look at the high school student who gave up his seat to him, but found that the person had already got off the car. It may be because he was carrying a cane, so there was no one around him. There was no one standing around waiting for an opportunity to grab a seat, and even some tricky grandpas and aunts stood far away as if they were hiding something.

"It's really..." Xue Kaijie muttered softly, when the phone in his pocket rang, and several people touched his pockets at the same time, but found that it wasn't his phone that rang.

Xue Kaijie thought about asking Lu Hui to change the ringtone of his cell phone next time, so he took out his cell phone, looked at the caller ID, and answered it.

"Hello, Mr. Lu."

"I told you, don't call me that, where are you?"

"On Line [-], we're at Xisha Station soon, what's up?"

"That's just right. Today is your 34th birthday. Come here tonight and I'll treat you to a drink and give you a birthday present."

"Oh okay, see you at the old place."

After saying a few more words, Xue Kaijie hung up the phone. He caught sight of his right leg out of the corner of his eye, and couldn't help but sighed. He wanted to smoke but remembered that he was still on the subway, and he became depressed. .

It has been three years since I lost my right calf after that incident. During these three years, I traveled to many cities and finally returned to my hometown.During the period, I changed many jobs, because my brain is too stupid to do mental work, so my work is almost all within my ability, and as I get older, I gradually find that I may have to think about my future. I can no longer muddle around like this.

Because if this continues... that kid will laugh at himself.

When Xue Kaijie arrived at Yaohuo, Lu Hui was sitting on the bar, and there was an empty glass in front of him, obviously he had already had a drink. Lu Hui waved to Xue Kaijie to follow the old rules, and Xue Kaijie walked to the bar and raised his hand familiarly. He sat on the stool with his left leg, put the crutches aside, picked up the wine glass he had prepared in front of him, drank it in one gulp, smacked his lips, and said, "Can you introduce me to a job?"

Lu Hui didn't ask why, and snapped his fingers to ask the guy at the bar to come over with a bottle of wine, then turned around and said, "Why don't you just come to our company, and I'll give you a random position. Anyway, you don't ask much. It doesn’t matter how much you wear, it’s easy to make a living.”

"Don't be so arrogant just because you manage your father's subsidiary, Mr. Lu." Xue Kaijie raised his arm and wanted to punch Lu Hui, but Lu Hui dodged sideways.

"Tsk, your skills are still so vigorous."

"Then I would like to thank instructor Xue for your guidance." Lu Hui took the wine and poured half a glass of wine into his and Xue Kaijie's glasses, and then said: "Okay, seriously, give me your mobile phone .”

Xue Kaijie took out his mobile phone and handed it to Lu Hui. Lu Hui took the mobile phone and began to fiddle with it. He also held the mobile phone to face Xue Kaijie mysteriously, preventing him from seeing the mobile phone interface. Curious what Lu Hui is doing, anyway, it is not uncommon for Lu Hui to do some strange things with his mobile phone.

Once at a party, Lu Hui took advantage of Xue Kaijie's drunkenness to send a text message to a hostess lady on Xue Kaijie's mobile phone, but the lady came to the door after waking up the next day, which made Xue Kaijie panic. With a confused face, Xue Kaijie spent a lot of time explaining the reason for the incident and apologized when the young lady explained the reason for coming. Of course, Lu Hui would inevitably be beaten up afterwards, but Lu Hui is quite thick-skinned, and he is not afraid of anything. Later, he also used Xue Kaijie's mobile phone to do bad things, but those vulgar jokes were never made again.

"Mr. Lu, change the ringtone for me if you have time. This ringtone is too popular." Xue Kaijie lay on the bar counter with a lazy look.

Lu Hui was busy fiddling with the phone, so he agreed casually. A few minutes later, he locked the phone and handed it back to Xue Kaijie. At the same time, he instructed: "Open the phone when you get home, otherwise it won't be a birthday surprise."

Xue Kaijie took the phone and stuffed it back into his pocket, then took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it up, exhaled the smoke lightly, and brought the topic back to work, "I can't just hang around like this all the time, can I? It’s been more than 1000 days since my muscles and bones were hurt for a hundred days, and I’ve made you laugh at me for three years as an instructor.”

Lu Hui chuckled, and took out a cigarette from his pocket to smoke. The bar was instantly filled with smoke, "Yeah, I've seen you blame yourself for three years, but we can't help you."

"You bastards, you are probably gloating, right?" Xue Kaijie glanced at Lu Hui lightly with his chin between his cigarette holders. Lu Hui quickly waved his hand, his face darkened in an instant. He flicked the cigarette ash into the ashtray and lowered his eyes. , Said lightly: "Xiao Yao, he..."

The name made Xue Kaijie stunned, but soon he put the hand holding the cigarette around Lu Hui's shoulder and at the same time gave Lu Hui a shudder on the forehead with the other hand.

The strength is still the same as before, it hurts to death.

"Xue Kaijie! You..."

"Lu Hui!"

Lu Hui was frightened by the sudden roar, and felt in a daze that he was still instructor Xue's student receiving reprimand from the instructor.

"That's how Baofeng taught you to talk back to the instructor?!"

Lu Hui: "..."

Lu Hui was completely frightened. Back in the team, what he was most afraid of was the normal Xue Kaijie, but what he was most afraid of was the angry Xue Kaijie. At this moment, he was in a trance, and the noisy sounds around him disappeared. It was as if I was in a team, and my teammates were standing beside me. They didn't dare to show their anger, and they were holding their breaths waiting for the instructor's reprimand.

"In the mission three years ago, Pan Junyao sacrificed himself to save people, you should feel honored! And I didn't protect my students well, so what the hell is it if I lose a calf! As an instructor, I was rescued by the students, what the hell is that! "Xue Kaijie couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, and it burst out in an instant.

"Instructor, I'm sorry!" Lu Hui stood up abruptly, and suddenly bowed at a standard 90 degrees. Said: "Two guests, keep your voice down."

Xue Kaijie came back to his senses, apologized quickly, scratched his head and looked at Lu Hui who was still bowing, realized that he was impulsive, poured a glass of wine and handed it to Lu Hui, and said, "Sorry, I'm a little..."

Lu Hui straightened up, took the wine glass tremblingly and sat back on the stool again, and said slowly: "You are right, Xiao Yao died to save people, and all our Stormwind team members are proud of him." Pick up the glass and drink it down.

"This cup is for Pan Junyao."

Xue Kaijie picked up the wine glass with a wry smile and said, "Well, Jingjun Yao."

Discord between men can always be resolved with a fist, a reprimand, and a glass of strong wine, let alone a comrade who was born and died.

The two chatted about some trivial matters in life. Lu Hui promised to find a stable job for Xue Kaijie.

"Then Mr. Lu, I'm leaving." Xue Kaijie waved goodbye to Lu Hui, and Lu Hui yelled, "Don't call me Mr. Lu!" But Xue Kaijie pretended he didn't hear it, and turned around leaning on his crutches and made a swaggering movement Walking in the direction of home, Lu Hui's voice came from behind: "Remember to check your phone when you go home!"

Xue Kaijie raised his hand in a gesture of ok, took out a cigarette, and smoked again.

After returning home, Xue Kaijie threw his mobile phone on the bed and went into the bathroom to take a shower. His undressed body revealed strong lines. It was not the muscles developed in the gym, but the years of hard training one after another. Only the lower half of the right leg is empty.

The water mist diffused, and thin water columns flowed down Xue Kaijie's hair. The right leg without a calf was like an abandoned child, floating alone in the air. Xue Kaijie held on to the wall with one hand. , the other hand went down, and when it touched the place where the knee was broken, the hand began to tremble, and the soft whimpering gradually amplified in the bathroom.

"Jun Yao...you little bastard."

After taking a bath, he simply wiped his body. After years of training, Xue Kaijie only wore a pair of sports pants even in winter. His upper body was naked and his hair was still half wet. He went back to the room and sat down on the bed. Pick up the phone, press the fingerprint to open the lock screen, at this time a clear voice suddenly came from the phone.

"Ah, you finally turned on your phone, it's killing me."

Xue Kaijie: "?????"

Xue Kaijie subconsciously threw the phone forward, moved his butt back a few steps, and looked confused.His eyes were full of question marks, but he couldn't help being driven by curiosity. He looked at the mobile phone that he had thrown in front of him, and glanced hard.

"Ah, I'm sorry to scare you, hey, I can't see you, can you hold the phone in your hand, so I can't see you."

This voice... Jun Yao?

Xue Kaijie rushed to the phone, grabbed the phone tightly in his hand, and shouted in disbelief: "Jun Yao? Jun Yao!"

It was the voice of that person, the voice that I had been missing for three years!

Xue Kaijie saw the source of the sound clearly at this time, and a "Pan Junyao" was displayed on the screen of his mobile phone.

"Hello, Kaijie, long time no see." "Pan Junyao" on the phone smiled and waved to Xue Kaijie, his every frown and smile was exactly the same as that of the dead Pan Junyao.

However, Xue Kaijie understands that people cannot be resurrected after death, and Pan Junyao is indeed dead, but the "person" in the phone in front of him is clearly Pan Junyao. His appearance, movements, and tone of voice are all the same as Pan Junyao before his death. Two different.

"you you you……"

"When did Instructor Xue become stuttering? This is really a new thing." "Pan Junyao" laughed on his mobile phone with his hands behind his back. He has a pair of very beautiful peach blossom eyes. A soldier should have the arrogance, but Pan Junyao is the one with the highest degree of mission completion in the storm.

"Pan Junyao" coughed twice, and said seriously: "Mr. Xue Kaijie, welcome to the "Virtual Boy" APP. This software is developed by the National Military Science and Technology Group. It is suitable for all veterans who have lost their loved ones. This software is currently in the trial stage. All copyrights and interpretation rights belong to the National Military Science and Technology Group, if you have any questions or suggestions, please let me know, and I will help you pass them on to the Science and Technology Group.”

"This software is valid for one year. During this period, you cannot delete this software. After one year, the software will be automatically deleted from your mobile phone. This software cannot be downloaded twice. Each person has only one chance to use it. In addition, please Note, please do not publicize the functions of this software to the outside world, if there is any violation, the country has the right to arrest you for leaking state secrets, I wish you a happy use."

"Let's introduce myself. Virtual number 06, name Pan Junyao, virtual age 18, actual age 24, position as a member of the storm team, and the service object is Xue Kaijie, the former instructor of the storm."

"Kaijie, please take care of me." Pan Junyao let out a long sigh of relief after speaking this long paragraph, and muttered in a low voice: "Phew, I probably didn't recite the wrong lines."

Then "Pan Junyao" bowed, and waited for Xue Kaijie's answer with an innocent face, but at the moment Xue Kaijie only had ellipses and question marks to express his current mood. Although he was stupid, he knew that this was The birthday gift that Lu Hui mentioned, he held the phone in a daze for a long time before he remembered that he wanted to call Lu Hui to find out what was going on. Just when his finger was about to touch the screen of the phone, "Pan Junyao" He spoke again: "Ah, are you going to call Lu Hui now? Let me help you."

Speaking of "Pan Junyao", he stretched out his arm and waved it in front of his eyes, and said "Lu Hui, phone", the next moment the interface of the mobile phone suddenly changed to a dial interface, and "Pan Junyao" disappeared at this time.

"Doo-doo-hello, instructor?"

"Lu, Lu Hui, that phone, what, what's going on?"

"Instructor, why are you still stuttering? It's really fresh."

Lu Hui really deserves to be good friends with Pan Junyao, and he said the same thing.

"...Stop talking nonsense and talk!"

Lu Hui hurriedly said seriously: "Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, what, did 'Pan Junyao' say hello to you?"

Xue Kaijie nodded, and suddenly thought that Lu Hui couldn't see him nodding, so he said "um", and then Lu Hui said: "That's right, the National Military Science and Technology Group has been secretly carrying out a plan many years ago. They put this The program is called Virtual Survival, and it's classified as S, so almost no one knows about it."

"This project is dedicated to the development of a mobile phone software. You can simply understand it as a desktop pet. I don't know Chinese well. Don't mind my metaphors, but you should understand what I mean now, right? This plan will need to be tested later when it is implemented. Volunteers, so this news was passed on to some teams, but you had already retired and were not in the team at that time, so you didn’t know. I'm telling you this, so..."

Xue Kaijie interrupted Lu Hui when he heard this: "Wait, wait, what is the meaning of this virtual survival plan?"

"The literal meaning is as intended, which is to revive people in the virtual world. They will implant some kind of chip in the body of the volunteer. Before implanting the chip, the volunteer needs to set the target of the service. Once the setting is set, it cannot be changed. This chip can remember everything about volunteers, including words and deeds, emotions, temper, and tone of memory. It is equivalent to copying and pasting this person. This chip uploads data synchronously, and the R&D team will have backups. I don’t know the details. Well, anyway, it’s just a bunch of code data. After the volunteer dies, the research and development team will integrate the data, and then use their method to make a virtual character that can survive in the mobile phone, and implant it into the mobile phone of the service object through software download. In the middle, this is the virtual survival plan. But not all volunteers died unexpectedly, and some volunteers took out this chip after retiring.”

"However, the R&D team said that in consideration of preventing people from becoming dependent on this software and being stuck in the past, they set a period of use. No matter who it is, this software can only be used once, and it only has a one-year period of use. I Do you understand how to explain it to the instructor?" Lu Hui explained that his mouth was dry, but fortunately he prepared water in advance, picked it up and took a gulp.

Xue Kaijie was confused, but he probably understood—"Pan Junyao" was resurrected, but turned into a pile of code data.

"Uh... I probably understand."

"Xiaoyao filled in the insurer when he participated in this plan, and it was me, so when the R&D team notified me that the software is available for trial, I immediately called you to come over and help you install it."

Xue Kaijie smiled helplessly holding his forehead, and slowly moved his palms down to cover his eyes. He said softly, "The country is really worrying about it...it's ridiculous."

"I know it will be unacceptable for a while, but... Instructor, you must really miss Xiao Yao, right? Even though he has become a pile of codes now, you must have already experienced his truth, right?"

"Ah, yes," Xue Kaijie put down his palms, heaved a long sigh of relief, looked up at the ceiling, his eyes seemed a little dazed, and after a while, he moved his lips and said: "It's just a pity, if this is the case, I will I can't beat this brat anymore."
