After checking her ticket, she followed the crowd onto the train and found her seat. The train started slowly, and the scenery outside the window began to recede rapidly.

Lin Yuexi looked out the window, feeling mixed emotions. She was looking forward to seeing Lu Cheng as soon as possible, but was also afraid to face the unknown outcome.

After two days and one night of bumpy ride, the train arrived at the transfer station.

Lin Yuexi dragged her slightly tired body off the bus and asked at the station about the bus schedule to the town where the army was stationed.

When she learned that she would have to wait another hour for a bus, she found an empty seat, sat down, took out her kettle and drank some water, trying to relieve her anxiety.

Finally, the train to the town arrived. Lin Yuexi set out on her journey again. After a long and arduous journey, the train finally slowly pulled into the town's station.

She took a deep breath, walked out of the station, and looked at the unfamiliar streets of the town, with a complex emotion in her heart. It was already late at night, and most of the shops in the town were closed, with only a few still turning on the dim lights.

Lin Yuexi decided to find a place to stay first and then look for the military base tomorrow. She asked around in the town and finally found a guesthouse.

The rooms in the guesthouse are not big, but they are clean and tidy.

After a simple wash, Lin Yuexi lay down on the bed. Although her body was very tired, her mind was unusually clear and she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

The moonlight outside the window shines into the house, adding a sense of loneliness to the atmosphere.

She looked at the ceiling, her thoughts drifting back to the little things she had experienced in her life with Lu Cheng. Those happy memories now made her miss him even more.

It was unknown how long it had passed before Lin Yuexi gradually fell asleep in exhaustion and longing.

In her dream, she saw Lu Cheng covered in blood again. She screamed in fear and wanted to rush over to hug him, but she couldn't run away.

Lin Yuexi woke up from her dream, cold sweat soaking her back, her heart was still pounding. The tragic scene of Lu Cheng covered in blood in the dream kept circling in her mind, and fear followed her like a shadow.

After calming down, she quickly stood up and washed her face with cold water to wake herself up completely.

Then, she flashed into the space and went straight to the supply room.

From the many reserves, she picked out two buns, steamed them in the villa kitchen and ate them, then soaked a packet of fragrant milk and ate them quickly.

After filling her stomach, she did not dare to delay for a moment, and quickly left the space, rushing out to find the troop station.

Along the way, she stopped everyone who seemed familiar with the local situation, her eyes full of anxiety and expectation, and asked sincerely about the location of the troops.

But most people just shook their heads in confusion, casting strange and doubtful looks at her, which made her hopes dashed again and again.

Just when she was filled with despair and almost gave up, a young man riding a 28-inch bicycle suddenly braked beside her.

The boy had dark skin and a row of white teeth when he smiled. He said crisply, "Sister, I know where the troops are. I'll take you there!" Lin Yuexi was instantly overjoyed. The light of hope rekindled in her eyes, and she hurriedly thanked her.

The young man rode his bike skillfully in front and led the way, while Lin Yuexi followed closely behind in quick steps.

They walked together through the winding alleys, which were lined with mottled earth walls and low tiled houses, with occasional dog barkings heard.

Finally, a solemn and majestic gate appeared before their eyes. The troops had arrived! Lin Yuexi's heartbeat suddenly sped up, as if it was about to jump out of her throat.

She took a deep breath, tried to calm her inner excitement, and strode towards the door with firm steps.

The soldier on guard immediately stepped forward to stop her.

Lin Yuexi hurriedly explained her purpose. The soldier listened carefully and saluted her. "Sister-in-law, please wait a moment. I will report to the leader..."

Lin Yuexi had no choice but to stand at the door and wait, but fortunately, she didn't wait for long before the soldier came over.

"Sister-in-law, our Brigade Commander Fang asked you to come in..."

Lin Yuexi followed the soldiers into the military base.

Along the way, she looked around. On the training ground, the soldiers were shouting slogans and training in an orderly manner. Their sweat was glittering in the sun, demonstrating their vigorous vitality and firm strength.

After a while, they arrived in front of an office building.

The soldier led her into an office. Inside the room, a middle-aged man in a neat military uniform with shining stars on his epaulettes stood up. His eyes were kind yet dignified. It was Brigade Commander Fang.

"Comrade Yuexi, please take a seat." Brigade Commander Fang greeted him warmly, "Lu Cheng is an outstanding soldier in our unit. I always hear him mention you."

Lin Yuexi nodded slightly, thanked him politely, and sat down, and asked anxiously: "Brigade Commander, how is Lu Cheng now? I heard that he went to carry out a secret mission, and I was really worried about him, so I rushed here."

The brigade commander said, "Comrade Yuexi, the mission that Lucheng is going to complete is a state secret and cannot be disclosed casually..."

Brigade Commander Fang paused, looked at Lin Yuexi gently, and continued, "But please rest assured, Lu Cheng is an excellent soldier with excellent skills. We have full confidence in him. He is currently in the critical stage of his mission, so he cannot meet you right away."

Lin Yuexi's heart tightened, her hands unconsciously clenched the corners of her clothes, her eyes full of worry: "Brigade Commander Fang, I know the mission is confidential and cannot be disclosed, but I am really worried about him. He was seriously injured before and almost couldn't wake up. I just want to confirm whether he is safe now..."

Brigade Commander Fang nodded slightly and said with understanding: "We completely understand your feelings. We also know that Lu Cheng was injured before, but as for carrying out this mission, he volunteered.

He has always had the country and the people in his heart, and he has also been thinking about you, thinking that after successfully completing the mission, he will be able to stay by your side with peace of mind. "

Lin Yuexi breathed a sigh of relief, but her worries still lingered in her heart. She took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and said, "Captain Fang, I understand Lu Cheng's responsibility, and I have always supported his choice. If there is anything I can do to help, please let me know. I want to do my part."

Brigade Commander Fang showed an approving look: "Comrade Yuexi is very understanding. It is a blessing for Lu Cheng to have a wife like you. What you can do now is to wait patiently. The troops will keep an eye on the progress of the mission at any time. Once there is any news about Lu Cheng, we will notify you as soon as possible."

Lin Yuexi nodded firmly: "Okay, Brigade Commander Fang, I will wait for him to come back. During this time, I will find a place to stay nearby and not cause trouble to the troops."

"Comrade Lin Yuexi, I advise you to go back and wait for news. There is no point in you staying here..." said Brigade Commander Fang.

Lin Yuexi said, "Captain Fang, don't worry, I promise not to cause any trouble to the troops or you..."

Seeing that Lin Yuexi insisted, Brigade Commander Fang had no choice but to let the soldiers take him to the guesthouse in the town and promised that all accommodation expenses would be borne by the army.
