The days we traveled with Mikasa

Chapter 36 Joining the Army and Parting

36,

Two years later,

To the north of Torros District, open up wasteland.

......

After two years of construction, it is no longer the desolation it used to be. At this time, large tracts of wheat have been planted in the original woods.

The gust of wind blows, the waves of wheat roll, and you can't see the head at first glance.

Chen Qing and Mikasa walked side by side on the newly paved masonry road. Alan happily ran ahead of them, while Almin followed them hesitantly.

Two years of labor has made the three boys a lot stronger. Under the thin coats are slightly raised muscles, even their height has become a lot higher, their eyes are firmer, and the lines on their faces are more obvious.

And Mikasa became a beautiful girl, her exquisite face became more beautiful, and the awakening of Ackerman's circuit also made her body more symmetrical, and the rate of turning her head on the street reached almost 100%.

It's just that the expressionless and pretty face made her exude an aura of "go away and don't come over", which also discouraged the men who tried to strike up a conversation.

"Go faster, or else I won't be able to catch up!" Allen recovered and shouted loudly.

Although after two years of being a man, Allen has become a little more calm, but compared to Chen Qing and Almin, he still looks a little frizzy.

"Walk slowly, there is still time." Chen Qing replied helplessly, he could feel the rejection in Mikasa's heart.

Mikasa herself doesn't like being in a place with so many people. She always hides herself in this environment. Walking on the street is hard for her, let alone running.

Although he enlightened Mikasa more than once, it didn't help much.

Don't look at her expressionless face now, as if she was indifferent, but the hand holding Chen Qing was firmly clenched, and she didn't dare to let go, showing the tension in her heart.

What's more, today Mikasa is wearing a long skirt woven by Ling Yanchuan. It would be very inconvenient to run.

"Yes, or... it's better to be slower." Almin added later.

Although he wanted to join the army, he didn't want to join the investigative corps. When he thought of the term "giant", his heart was filled with fear, and the tragedy of the day the wall was broken would be repeated in his heart.

"Almin, don't be nervous," Chen Qing turned his head and smiled at him, "We are just going to be training soldiers. We won't be on the front line. If we want to be on the front line, we have to wait three years."

"Ah... I didn't mean that, I was just wondering whether to join the investigation corps, and involuntarily came up with the idea of'If you don't enter the training corps'..." Almin hesitated, but was right. Chen Qing has nothing to hide.

The four of them have forged a deep bond during two years of labor, and even if it is a matter of entanglement, there is still no need to hide from their friends.

"Okay! Just take two steps when you're at the door!" Allen's voice came from the front.

Looking up, he was standing at the corner of the intersection waving his arms at them.

"Don't hesitate Almin, if you really don't want to join the investigation corps after three years, Mikasa and I will go to persuade Alan, after all, no one can force others to make a choice." Chen Qing shook his hand to Alan. Said they would be there soon, and then turned around and said to Almin.

"Yeah! Thank you, Chen Qing!" Almin shook his head and threw the question of his hesitation out of his mind. If he can't figure it out, then I don't want to. There will be a way.

......

"Want to join the army?"

"Yes, join the training corps."

"what is it call?"

"Chen Qing Ackerman"

"The last name is not common, where is it from?"

"Higanshina District."

"...A survivor?"

"That's it."

"Really?"

"When the wall was broken, my sister and my parents were just about to travel inside the Wall of Rosette. We were hit by a stone kicked up by the giant giant on the boat. We were lucky and didn't die."

"Birthday? The one with the year."

"September 15, 837."

"I'm just old enough, are there any relatives in the family?"

"My sister and mother."

"Your sister? Is that the little girl named'Mikasa Ackerman'?"

"Yes, she registered in front of me."

"In other words, your non-military family members only have a mother?"

"Yes."

"Okay, do you have any intentions? Just after graduating from the training corps?"

"Join the investigation corps and kill the giants."

"Uh! The ideal is good. Someone said that before you, but he said that he wanted to kill the giant, hahaha..."

"Can you register quickly?"

"The little devil is not a big deal! There is nothing wrong. According to the regulations, the family members of the training soldiers can not participate in the wasteland reclamation and move into the Torros District. We will arrange a house for her for free and give her a silver coin every month. Living allowance."

"A silver coin is for each training soldier?"

"Yes, your family is composed of you and your sister, so your mother can get two silver coins every month."

"Okay, thanks a lot."

"Then you are sure to join? There is no additional allowance during the training process, but the three meals and other daily necessities are provided by the training corps, and the families of survivors can be exempted from wasteland labor and enjoy living allowances."

"Well, sure."

"I want to warn you, if you or your sister are eliminated midway, then your mother will lose the corresponding living allowance. If both of you are eliminated, then your family must go back and continue to work in wasteland!"

"understood."

"Okay, this voucher is for you. You can go back now to say goodbye to your family. At nine o'clock, you must be back here. We will send someone to the training site. Then your family will come together. , We will have someone take her to pick up the house."

"Well, thanks a lot."

"Okay, next one!"

......

In this way, Chen Qing completed the registration and left the registration point with a square voucher cut from kraft paper.

He found three people who had already registered in a relatively quiet alley not far away.

"It's so slow, Chen Qing! Are you treated specially?" Allen asked curiously.

Indeed, Chen Qing’s registration time was a bit longer than that of them. Because the registered soldier saw him as the eldest son of a family, he gave a few more explanations, and it took longer.

Mikasa didn't speak, but looked at him quietly. Because the two of them had the same mind, her question had long been passed to Chen Qing's heart.

"It's okay, the soldier told me to arrange a house for my mother, so I don't forget to bring her over."

"Well, he told me too." Mikasa nodded lightly and said lightly.

Almin, who had no sense of existence, said: "Then should we go back and tell Aunt Yan Chuanling, and then bring her together?"

"Well, that's it, let's go."

......

The four of them returned halfway up the mountain, and they saw two wooden houses. They spent nearly half a month with four children and Yan Chuanling. Now it's time to separate.

"I really don't want them!" Chen Qing touched the texture of the trees on the outer wall of the wooden house with emotion.

Allen cast a glance at him, and said angrily: "Don't be silly, Almin and I cut the wood. You are responsible for the assembly. What can't you bear?"

"Ahem, don't care about these details." Chen Qing, who was lazy and exposed, was a little embarrassed. He coughed twice and replied.

"Um... it's nine o'clock in a while, do we have to say a few words to the aunt, and then sigh with emotion on the road?" Almin asked weakly.

Alan clapped his hands and jumped up from the ground: "Yes! Let's hurry, or we should leave us behind!"

When he said this, there was a flame in his eyes, and Chen Qing looked at him silently.

Chen Qing is familiar with this look, he had it in his previous life. The name of this kind of flame is hatred.

He walked up to Ellen, patted him on the shoulder, then stared into his acting eyes and said, "Ellen, I don’t know what you think, but I want to persuade you that you must use hatred as a tool of revenge. Instead of being dragged by hatred to revenge, understand?"

"Huh?" Allen nodded half-knowingly. He didn't realize why Chen Qing suddenly told him this kind of truth.

"It's okay if you don't understand, but you must remember." Chen Qing shook his head, feeling that he had overestimated Alan's IQ.

......

Soon after, Yan Chuanling returned from the foot of the mountain, and the four children brought Yan Chuanling back to the registration point.

At this moment, there are not many people here. Apart from them, there are only three children of the same age who look familiar.

There are more than 400 people in this wasteland, and even fewer of them are the same age as Chen Qing, so they must have seen it.

They greeted each other, and then went away separately.

"Chen Qing, you must take care of Mikasa when you get to the training corps. As an older brother, you must protect her!" Yan Chuanling took Chen Qing's arm and chattered endlessly, "There are also Ellen and Almin, you must also protect her. Something, after all, you are the oldest of you, so you have to take on the responsibility of the big brother..."

"..."

Chen Qing couldn't laugh or cry. He just talked to Yan Chuanling about the house and living allowance, but she said that those were not important, as long as Chen Qing listened to her.

Soon after, the soldiers of the training corps arrived in two carriages. They greeted the children to get on the car quickly. Then Yan Chuanling let go of Chen Qing, and Chen Qing said in detail about the house and Subsidy matters.

"Mother, we will find time to come back to see you!" He jumped onto the carriage, turned around and waved to Yan Chuanling.

Mikasa standing next to him hugged Yanchuanling: "Mom, Mikasa will definitely miss you."

Then Ellen and Almin, they each said goodbye to Yan Chuanling and jumped into the carriage.

Yan Chuanling didn't say a word, only shook her hand, which meant to let them have no nostalgia and train well.

The wooden wheels ran over the dust on the ground, making a "creak" sound, and then the sound gradually became smaller, and the carriage gradually moved away.

Looking at the leaving carriage, Yan Chuanling covered her mouth, tears streaming down her eyes.

In order not to affect the children, she tried to control her emotions and kept herself from crying. She went straight to the carriage and left, and tears of forbearance finally broke down the bank.

"Madam, please calm down your mind. We will take you to the allocated house and hand over the living allowance for this month to you." A female training soldier walked over. She comforted Yan Chuanling and went to the side. The soldiers on guard made a gesture, beckoning them to prepare the carriage.

"Your children are all good, they are all brave, you should be happy." She took Yan Chuanling to the carriage, "Get in the car, lady, we are going to leave."

......

On the other side, Chen Qing and the others finally arrived at the southern training corps station after nearly four hours of journey.
