Jiang Hui's first reaction was not to dodge, but to think... This person's body was straight even when he was bending over.
Hillman didn't understand why he had dodged the other party's hand and finally landed on his head. Did this uncle know that you can't touch a man's head casually? His father wanted to touch him but he refused.
The other party seemed to glance at Hillman because of his particularly restless behavior, and a hint of playful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: “Old Hillman’s child, no wonder…”
Hillman was a little confused as to whether the other party was referring to his grandfather or his father, but in his impression, only his grandfather's friends would call him that.
But this lieutenant general does not look very old and does not seem to be of the same generation as my grandfather.
Lieutenant General Mace just sighed softly, and then... pressed the other person's head again.
Hillman: …there is reason to suspect that the other party did it on purpose.
Then the elder looked at another person and said, "This is student Jiang."
Jiang Hui felt that the other party seemed to be looking at her, but this gaze was not aggressive at all, more like a simple look, so although she was a little uncomfortable, she was not in pain.
In fact, Lieutenant General Mays was more impressed by Jiang Hui than Hillman.
Maybe Jiang Yinlin didn't remember Lieutenant General Metz, but Lieutenant General Metz had a deep impression of her. Because he had once taken a fancy to Jiang Yinlin and wanted to transfer her to the Third Army for training, but unfortunately, due to some things, she ended up in the Eighth Army.
They didn't want to hear about each other again, but it was in the obituary of the Empire's heroes. Both husband and wife died in that war.
The flower of the army that the Third Legion had secretly reserved fell into the hands of other legions because of a factional battle that was actually completely unrelated, and finally withered silently on the battlefield - Lieutenant General Metz was regretful.
He was not idle during the time he was on the ground. He browsed through the evidence and information of the incident, and happened to look at the files of the two students who saved his youngest son.
He was naturally familiar with the Hillman family. They had grown up together when they were young, but later they went their separate ways because of their own choices of family business. In these years, they rarely met each other, and he had never seen the little Hillman. He only knew that the old Hillman had five children, and the one he loved the most was the youngest one who was still in school.
Unexpectedly, Hillman's beloved son has the same personality as him. This old friend has been hiding things for years, making everyone think that he is a deep-minded, calculating businessman who is born to study and calculate others, but this youngest son's personality is exactly like him, and it is a one-to-one reproduction. It can be said that if Hillman didn't have to inherit the family business, he would probably be this stupid.
So some things are what they are, and they cannot be changed no matter what.
Lieutenant General Mays didn't care about the mistakes made by the other side. He was a realistic person who paid more attention to the results than the process. As long as his youngest son survived, everyone was happy.
But he was not a deaf-mute who was completely clueless. He got the video materials no later than others and reviewed them several times. Every time he watched them, he became more and more afraid for Brad's life.
Judging from the video evidence alone, the girl attracted his attention more. And he happened to find that the other party was actually the child of his student. This world is really a small place, and there is no coincidence.
He was extremely grateful to this outstanding student, who had missed out on his legion in the past, for leaving such a child in this world. It was because of this child's existence that his child was able to escape death.
There is no necessary connection between the two, but such a coincidence is a miracle of life.
He was very grateful.
How much he had placed high hopes on his youngest son and how strict he was with him in the past, how much he regretted forcing him like that now. The child should have been led by him to enter this world step by step, but because of his selfishness, he was forced to stumble along the way, and now he almost lost his life here...
But it was useless to regret now, the other party had already gone through so much, to the point where the damage had already been done. Right now, as a father, he only had endless regret in his heart.
He didn't want to train this kid anymore. As if he had seen him die once before, Lieutenant General Mays now wanted to see him survive in peace. All the hopes and expectations he had had were annihilated in an instant.
Jiang Hui originally thought that the lieutenant general would ask about their distress, or at least about the rescue of Warrant Officer Metz. But he did not. Instead, he showed concern for their studies at school, and even suggested a number of small methods of guidance and training based on his own school experience.
Jiang Hui didn't know how Hillman felt about these experiences and guidance, but she benefited a lot from them. After listening to this, she seemed to have a deeper understanding and definition of the group of soldiers stationed in the dangerous border areas of the empire.
She seemed to be slightly shaken. As for what she was wavering about... maybe even she didn't know.
Just as Lieutenant General Metz wanted to ask the two about their future plans after graduating from the junior college, another family member who had been silently accompanying the patient in the room quickly left the background, walked over quickly, bent down and supported the back of the person on the bed.
“Brother…” the person on the bed called out weakly, with his eyes half closed, intending to open them fully to figure out the current situation.
Wake up
It can be seen that this patient is very strong-willed by nature. Even in such a dire situation now, he is still too stubborn to show any sign of weakness to others.
Stark, who had been standing in the back, had quietly gone out to look for someone after discovering that the patient had woken up. This was the first time the patient had woken up after the rescue.
The protagonist they were going to visit this time woke up, so there was no point in continuing the conversation. But Jiang Hui found that Lieutenant General Metz did not go to his child's side immediately, but just turned slightly and looked at the other person from a distance, his eyebrows and eyes were silent, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Having just woken up from a long and chaotic sleep, Brad Mays seemed a little confused. He looked at his brother who seemed to have suddenly appeared here, and then looked around.
Before he could say anything, medical staff rushed in from outside the room, seven or eight of them surrounded Mace. One checked the blood pressure on his wrist, another measured the electric waves, and another measured the electrocardiogram... They were busy using all kinds of testing equipment to surround him.
Jiang Hui: …
She finally understood what it was like when doctors examined her after she was injured or unconscious. To be honest, this was a more skillful method than tying up a pig. The "pig" itself might not even know what happened after being slaughtered.
