After packing up the boxes, He Beichen went to the kitchen to cook dinner. Li Xin followed him into the room curiously and looked at the boxes on top of the cabinet several times.
However, He Beichen put it away on purpose, and Li Xin did not take it.
"Li Xin, have you eaten lunch these two days?" He Beichen asked her after preparing dinner.
He Beichen has been thinking about this problem for two days, and even wanted to bring lunch to Li Xin at noon today.
"Yes, there is food." Li Xin replied.
Sanmao did cook for her at noon, but she couldn't tell anyone about it.
"I asked Sister Xiang, and she bought some dumplings and buns. It's okay to cook dumplings for lunch." Li Xin explained quickly.
Today, Sanmao happened to make dumplings, buns and some steamed buns, so He Beichen probably wouldn't worry about her being hungry at home alone.
"That's good." He Beichen had just seen those things in the kitchen, and he felt relieved.
Li Xin went to take a shower after dinner.
He Beichen washed the dishes, took down the box containing guns from the top of the cabinet, and brought it to the dining table in the living room.
He Beichen had checked the jammed magazines at the training ground before, and there was nothing wrong with them, so He Beichen guessed that there was something wrong with the magazine or the trajectory of the gun itself.
He opened the box and took out all the gun parts inside. Although He Beichen was not a researcher, he had handled guns for so many years and had some understanding of them.
He Beichen quickly removed the magazine from the gun for inspection.
When Li Xin came out of the shower, she saw that the box she had been curious about had been taken down by He Beichen and was now opened.
She wiped her hair and walked towards the dining table, standing next to He Beichen, looking very curious about these gun parts.
"I'll be done soon." He Beichen noticed her and spoke.
He originally thought it was just a magazine problem and it should be fixed quickly, so he wanted to take advantage of Li Xin taking a shower to fix it quickly.
However, what was unexpected was that even after Li Xin finished washing, he still hadn't checked it out.
Fortunately, Li Xin didn't seem to be afraid, which made He Beichen feel a little relieved.
"It's okay, just do your thing." After Li Xin wiped his hair dry, he placed the towel in his hand on the back of the chair, his eyes always fixed on the gun parts on the table.
Although it had not been assembled yet, after taking a quick look, Li Xin was sure that it was a submachine gun.
Li Xin roughly recalled that according to historical records, the performance of submachine guns in this era is still in the exploratory stage, and it was not until 1979 that they were basically finalized.
She reached out and picked up the barrel component and weighed it. The material was just average. It might be good now, but it would be eliminated in the future.
Li Xin put the barrel back and pinched the parts of the buttstock, as if he was checking it, or as if he was curious and found it interesting.
In He Beichen's opinion, he thought that she might be finding it novel at the moment.
"Be careful, don't hurt yourself." He Beichen didn't stop her, but just reminded her.
The gun has not been assembled yet, so He Beichen is not worried that she might accidentally fire it if she touches it.
Moreover, He Beichen only brought back a gun, and the bullets were all in the army, so there was no particularly dangerous place.
Li Xin withdrew his hand and curled his lips, thinking that the gun was too ordinary, even looked a bit rough, and did not seem to be very safe at all.
She looked at the magazine in He Beichen's hand. The device for pushing the bullets was old-fashioned. This style could easily cause the bullet to jam and had been eliminated in later generations.
"Why did you suddenly bring the gun back?" After reading it, Li Xin's eyes fell on He Beichen.
While asking some irrelevant questions, Li Xin was thinking about how to mention the jamming issue to He Beichen later.
She could tell that giving this new gun to He Beichen was probably related to his mission in two months.
The problem of bullet jamming is not particularly serious, but on the battlefield, such a small problem may very likely lead to a defeat during the battle.
Maybe He Beichen’s accidental death was related to this!
Li Xin couldn't just stand by and watch. Even if it was just a small problem, he had to find a way to eliminate it. Only in this way could He Beichen change his fate.
"In two months, I need to go on a mission." He Beichen stopped what he was doing and looked at Li Xin seriously.
The matter of this mission will not change, and He Beichen feels it is necessary to talk to Li Xin about it.
However, he only said that there was a mission, but He Beichen did not reveal a single word about where they were going or what the mission was. If he did, it would only make his young wife more worried.
Li Xin also knew that these things were confidential, so he didn't ask any more questions and just nodded.
But her expression was too calm. After all, she had known about this matter for a long time and even knew the ending clearly. How surprised could she be?
He Beichen looked at her with a strange and inquiring look.
Li Xin: “?”
Only after receiving his gaze did she realize that her calmness just now seemed a little strange.
"Ah? Will it be dangerous? My cousin told me before we got married that soldiers often have to go on missions. Will you... be okay?" Li Xin reacted and quickly pretended to be nervous, his expression full of panic.
Even Li Xueping was brought in.
Anyway, Li Xueping was in Guangyuan Village and couldn't refute her words.
He Beichen: "..."
Wife, you are a bit too dramatic.
"Is this the gun you're going to take on this mission?" Li Xin saw that He Beichen didn't respond and asked again, "But it looks a little weird. Is there any problem?"
"Li Xin." He Beichen looked at her and called her softly.
He Beichen rarely called her name, and he did so seriously, with a slight sigh.
An ordinary name seems to have become less ordinary and has a charming flavor.
Is it because He Beichen’s voice is nicer?
"Ah...what's wrong?" Li Xin touched his ear and felt it suddenly felt a little itchy.
"You don't have to worry about these, just wait for me to come back home." He Beichen looked at her and said.
Although the mission is dangerous, He Beichen knows this, but he will try his best to return safely.
