Chapter 5 Strange Gifts
This woman is none other than the one who gave away her jade pendant yesterday in a fit of rage in the hospital. Her name is Xia Xiaoshi, and she works in Jiangning County No. [-] Middle School.

Witnessing a car accident yesterday was a false alarm. Thanks to that resolute and fearless off-road vehicle, otherwise five or six pedestrians would have been killed or injured at least.Fortunately, Xia Xiaoshi also admired and appreciated the officer who drove the car from the bottom of her heart.

As a result, he went to express his gratitude by himself, but was ridiculed by another person present?And the guy complained about why he took the risk to help.

Hehe, indifference and selfishness, five people and six people, is really abhorrent!How can there be such a big gap between people?

She was so angry that she didn't think much at the time, and directly gave away the jade pendant that she used as a talisman, but when she got home, she began to regret it again.

After all, that jade pendant was brought up by him since he was a child, so he lost it all of a sudden, and he felt somewhat reluctant.

So after thinking about it, she woke up early today, went out at five o'clock, and went straight to Tianlong Temple, which is the closest to her home. After getting the talisman, she rushed to the pier to cross the river without stopping. Came to this Jiangbei railway station.

Although the iron policeman told her not to make fun of herself, she still wanted to try, otherwise wouldn't she have made a trip in vain?
After a while, the No. [-] battalion, which was transported across the river by several ferries, arrived outside the train station. The convoy composed of dozens of vehicles of various types was quite powerful, and pedestrians along the way gave way one after another.

The off-road vehicle that Zhou Changfeng was riding in stopped, and Xie Wancheng came quickly and said: "Every department is in place, ready to board the vehicle at any time."

The former let out a "hmm" and looked around, "Only our battalion is the whole organization transport?"

"Yes."

As the advance unit of the [-]rd Mixed Brigade, the [-]st Battalion was directly loaded into vehicles without dismantling the organizational system. The disadvantage was that some space would be wasted.

In contrast, other troops will be dismantled and transported in order to maximize the use of the capacity of each train, but it will take a lot of time to regroup after arriving.

Zhou Changfeng waved his hand and said, "Get in the station and get ready to get on the bus."

Soon, teams of soldiers and vehicles entered the station through the temporarily opened cargo passage.

There were many citizens waiting on the adjacent platform. Under their curious eyes, off-road vehicles and trucks drove up the flat car through the slope one after another, while soldiers lined up in front of the caravan.

Officers can take spacious and comfortable special passenger cars, while soldiers can only be squeezed into stuffy caravans.

Caravans are also commonly known as stuffy tank trucks. As the saying goes, "it is better to sit on a flatbed than to enter a stuffy tank." People generally think that even a flatbed truck that has been exposed to the sun and rain is more comfortable than a dull tanker in the dark.

Due to the immature technology of internal combustion locomotives, most of the trains these days are still steam locomotives, and the speed cannot be compared with that of later generations. Moreover, the military trains have to carry a large amount of equipment, so the speed will only be slower.From Yingtian Mansion to Chengdu Mansion, it takes about two days and one night.

Just when all the ministries got into the car, a small commotion came from behind?
Zhou Changfeng, who was about to get on the bus, looked back subconsciously, and saw a familiar figure waving outside the cordon of the platform?
Immediately, a soldier ran over from there, clasped his fists in salute, and said, "Sir, there is a girl who says she knows you and wants to find you."

Although he didn't know why, Zhou Changfeng didn't think much about it, "Go and have a look."

When he got closer, he recognized at a glance that this was not the woman who quarreled with his old friend in the ward yesterday?

"Uh...it's you, what's the matter?" He asked straight to the point.

Xia Xiaoshi didn't have much hope at first, but now she actually saw him?The unexpected situation made her a little entangled.

After hesitating for a few seconds, she hesitated and said, "Mr... sir, can you return that jade pendant to me yesterday..." Then, she stretched out her hands and handed over a walnut wood charm, "I'll take this with you." You change."

you……

Zhou Changfeng, dumbfounded, didn't reach out his hand, but said helplessly, "I put that thing in the suitcase and put it in the car, so it's inconvenient to take it."

"Ah...Okay." Xia Xiaoshi felt a little regretful when she heard the words, but then a little bit of displeasure surfaced in her heart—hey!That's what I grew up with!You don't take it with you, but throw it in the box to eat ashes?

"Woooooo-"

The whistle of the train sounded, announcing that the train was about to leave, and the soldiers on duty at the cordon also ran to the carriage.

"I have to go!" Zhou Changfeng also turned around and ran, "Let's talk about it when we get back."

After he jumped up, several station workers closed the door forcefully.

Through the car window, he could see the figure on the platform turning around to leave.

Recalling the disappointment in her eyes just now, maybe that jade pendant is very important to her?So, to be a human being, you have to be calm, and it is easy to do things that you regret when you get angry.

Although he thought so in his heart, Zhou Changfeng was still a little sorry, but now it was really too late to rummage through the suitcase, and the scene outside the car window was already shifting.

He hastily looked around and found that there was nothing to give as a souvenir.

At this time, he happened to catch a glimpse of the gun holster hanging on the shelf next to him, and he took it off without hesitation, then pulled up the car window and threw it out, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Hey! I'll see you off! It's time to exchange this with me!"

Xia Xiaoshi, who turned around and took a few steps, heard this sentence, and turned around to see the thing that had just landed.

She walked over to pick it up with some puzzlement, and looked at it in astonishment—a calfskin holster, a pistol with shiny silver light, and a magazine full of bullets.

ah?What do I want this thing for?
Xia Xiaoshi, with a surprised face, just watched the military column gradually speed up, and finally rumbled out of the station.

It was a special batch of 1903-type pistol manufactured by Jinling Arsenal, that is, the Browning M[-] after Daming obtained production authorization. Very beautiful.

This batch of special pistols, together with the custom-made Yanling knife, are the exclusive honors that can only be obtained by the top ten graduates of Yingtian Army martial arts.

Maybe Zhou Changfeng regarded it as a treasure in the past, but now Zhou Changfeng disdains it very much - weapons are used to kill enemies, how can they be made into gorgeous handicrafts to attract people's attention?That is blasphemy!
He didn't want to take this thing to war at all. Isn't the newly issued HP-35 several times stronger than it?However, his orderly Xiao Li only knew that he always cherished this pistol, so he kindly helped him carry it.

"Hehehe, unexpectedly, the battalion commander has someone in mind again." Xie Wancheng came over and said with a smile: "What a handsome girl, you must hurry up, you can't take advantage of others."

Are you a thick-eyed Shandong man not serious anymore?

Zhou Changfeng didn't notice the word "again", just rolled his eyes at him, and replied with a straight face: "If you don't have time to think about that, why not think about how to survive first."

"It's only Yingyi who is difficult to deal with, and the rest of the turbaned monkeys are nothing more than chickens and dogs." Xie Wancheng looked disdainful.
