The Little Prince in the Ossuary

End of April # 3

After winter came back, suddenly there were more patients or pretending to be crazy soldiers.

“They're not even men. ”

It was Private Brady Harper. Winter gave him light attention. Don't take your eyes off the horses. The two of them were teaching their horses by holding their tights. Soldiers, who are learning like soldiers, are leaning against the handrails or sitting comfortably looking this way.

Two horses tied to a long rope draw a large circle. When the person standing in the center with the rope changed their body and gaze, the horse was practicing walking, running, or stopping at the same speed.

“Not all the people who want to be transported are men, right? ”

Private Soldier's answer to winter questions with confidence.

“A woman may be so, sir. ”

Then one of the female soldiers stopped. Fuck you! You give me so much strength that the rest of the soldiers giggle.

On the outside, they had a fierce empathy. contempt for weak comrades. And in winter, it was also a kind of self-loathing. Why wouldn't they want to run away? You'll have to be aggressive to suppress it.

This was shot by a group of war reporters gathered on one side. The sound of knocking on a laptop keyboard is confusing because there's so much to use. When I looked at it quietly, it was intentional.

“What does this training mean, by the way? ”

“Words make people pay attention. But there are other purposes. ”

The horse's attention is naturally fixed to the center of the circle as it is human to determine the speed. If it drifted, attention had to be given by pulling the rope, sending a set signal, reducing the radius, or otherwise. Conversely, following the instructions, it increases the length of the rope to increase the margin of action.

Words familiar with it follow the will of the rider. If he had just intended to exercise, he would have told him to stand still with the line above his head, whether the horse is spinning or not.

“Weaver! Now you come out and do it. ”

I handed the shard lever to Corporal Weaver, who was swayed by winter. Since this is not her first practice, she soon mastered the ropes. Every once in a while, the horse's head turns in a different direction! I kick my tongue to remind myself. Not as experienced as the carpenter's manpower, but decent skill.

Everyone was able to relax thanks to the ammunition. Of course, there are those who haven't settled down yet.

“You haven't used a credit card yet, have you? ”

This was a question that Winter received from Captain Langford shortly after dispensing ammunition to the soldiers.

“That's right.”

“Don't make it as far as possible. I get this feeling every month. No matter how much I've been waiting for, it won't take long for everyone to get out. ”

Then what the captain pointed to were empty cartridges and ammunition crates in a flash. He was more delicate and worried than he looked, so he never seemed to feel at ease until more ammunition arrived. Still, it's a good thing I got enough time to throw around a silly joke.

There is no news yet on the follow-up. Given the usefulness of young war heroes, it is a little strange. The White House must have been turned upside down like an old man from the Fallen Rescue. In retrospect, he also said: For some reason, access to this airspace is restricted.

‘It's not just to provide intensive support to areas with many losers…… ’

Even so, one or two centuries should have crossed the line. Survivors have already made it this far. Therefore, it is only reasonable that there are other reasons.

It is worth noting that there has been no flight luck drawn from the sea to the land. No matter how important the mission is to maintain the seawall, if it takes millions of people, we can send in air support.

Could the navy have suffered minor losses in combat with the former Chinese military fleet? or that the situation is still progressive. The latter is weighed in relation to the previous suspicion.

While I'm thinking about it, I watch the training, and someone calls for winter.

“Lieutenant, do you mind if I take a moment? ”

The one who spoke carefully and politely was Gilbert Martino, the first member of the Joint Chiefs of War. The man who fed her the most when she saved him. After I woke up, I showed an attitude almost like worship.

“Do you have something for me? Would you like to reserve your seat? ”

“No, I'll just say it here. ”

Having said this, winter sought forgiveness from the nearby soldiers. The young lieutenant's favorite soldiers groan and move aside. Martino sighs.

“Tell me now. ”

A winter of mining. A mouth that does not open easily. I choke a few times and swallow it again. I stopped tapping. Reporters are looking this way. What are you talking about? Winter is patient because she was watching the training anyway. How long has it been? Martino, who wiped his forehead, finally brings out the difficult words.

“I, we want to cover the story. ”

It was about turning my head.

“If you want more than what you're already doing, you want to be on the ground with me. ”

“That's right.”

“The commander already said no? ”

“…… That's why I'm telling you. You're the lieutenant in charge. ”

“No, and you can't ignore the command line like this. ”

I couldn't take my eyes off the training because I didn't know when the accident would happen. I thought it was enough to make a cold voice. However, reporters do not retreat. I felt like I had made up my mind.

“I'm not just greedy for a feature. I don't know if I believe it's safe. We also know that we're only going to get in the way. But we crossed the blockade with a sense of mission. I left a notarized will before I was sent. So... ”

Words followed by sighing spaces.

“If that's not the case, I won't complain if you leave us. ”

“ ……. ”

Winter stopped training for a while.

After that, he and Gilbert moved to the rest of the war party. Tense journalists' gaze is focused on winter. Just looking at this, the opinions seemed to be clearly unified in advance. Winter, when I was making eye contact with one person, asked me directly.

“People, do you see a lot of attention in life here? ”

A few people were shaken momentarily.

“That's not why I told you... …. ”

Gilbert Martino, who was about to deny it immediately, blurred his words as he looked back at his colleagues or competitors. It's because one cameraman and one reporter couldn't stand the horror. Despite the harsh escaping, the black man's feeble flesh drips with hot tears. Add the low sniffing of the reporter.

Soldiers and officers are friendly to young officers without exception, but winter is only a special occasion. Not all of them had the same personality. There must have been some passage through civilians as a burden. Not because it's evil, but because it's weak. They're exhausted, and some of them would have felt a lot bigger if the press knew the situation was bad.

Helen Tamiris, a humble reporter, speaks frankly about her grievances.

“My eyes are so cold to see us. and sometimes I swear to you like I want you to hear me when I touch you in the hallway. I know, it's hard for the soldiers. I know, but we're not the only reason we're stuck here. There are a lot of people who can't fight besides us... This is so unfair. ”

Winter was silent for a short time.

We have ammunition for urgent use, and we expect additional supplies soon. While the situation was improving, it was unlikely that he would be prepared to die.

‘You're asking me to care. ’

Winter does not consider weakness a sin. It is because he is weak. Autumn, how hard it is to live every day for the past seasons. Why else would you not read most of the ungrateful words from other audiences in the world?

After enough stories flowed with empathy, winter opened its mouth.

“Everyone knows about Captain Harris, right? ”

Reporters focus on winter. Martino grinds.

“It's a well-known journalist, but you wouldn't know it. Because of that, you received the Hungarian Cross and the Silver Star. Honestly, it wasn't enough to get the Medal of Honor...... but I understand why. ”

“I heard that the day the Pentagon uploaded the battle records to the official account and the birth of a miracle child were over 30 million views in just one day. Lieutenant, if you weren't a soldier, you'd be a wealthy man. It's no use being a billionaire if the world dies. ”

One of the reporters, Trevor Batista, said. Miracle Eira was the expression for the baby born in the engineering office of Santa Margarita Lake. The youngest celebrity in America today. Married couples remember things like that on channels like this. White, a medic, was erected to a statue somewhere.

Winter said.

“That night, there was a man who said he was sorry and killed himself calling out his girlfriend's name. ”

His name was Emily.

“I had to ease the pain because I could not die from the grenade under the ship. ”

These would also have been seen indirectly. That's when the helmet cameras started working.

“I don't want to make a squadron of Bakers miserable. ”

“It's a lot different, isn't it? ”

I know that Elixir for Comfort is very severe. Winter shakes its head lightly toward the elusive Martino and other journalists.

“It will be similar in the end. Look, this is not a formal union. The Coast Guard and the 116th Battalion artillery were just like their original garrisons, but not since Sergeant Osborne's party joined them. It's only going to get worse. We need to keep our forces united in dozens of different units on different paths. ”

“Unity……. ”

“Yes, of course you are, but wouldn't that be helpful if you were under the obligation to protect the civilians you see right now?" ”

“ …… ”

“Even if there are a lot of people who like me and rely on me, I think it's dangerous by itself. It's going to squeak somehow, and it's going to cause trouble somewhere. Abandon civilians in this situation? This is ridiculous. If soldiers, officers, experience that, I don't know. Only those who abandoned their conscience will remain, but the troops must be doing very well. ”

Even though the squadron wasn't completely decomposed, it could have been enough to kill someone who didn't have to die. Captain Harris will be a parcel of ground in light of losing his credibility as a soldier.

Winter was thought to be a kind of disappointment. I'm the only human. Once you lower yourself like that, it will be easier next time. Easier. Lower. Easier. In that case, man is not a man. There were so many of them out there.

I said, "Don't think of yourself as a burden. Wouldn't it make me proud just to report the soldiers? I don't know who cursed, but most of them won't. ”

One of the silent journalists, Camera Man and Jordan Crook, laughed bitterly.

“That is so unrealistic. ”

A word to rest and reconnect.

“Lieutenant, you mean you. I believed that most of the coverage about you would be in the cast. ”

A grey-headed black man shakes his head as he gets older.

“A colleague on the editing team confirmed that the video was unmanipulated. I don't know if I should be a journalist's professional soldier……. because, frankly, it was too fantastic. ”

“I get it. Someone looked at me and was surprised that I was real. ”

When winter is lightly received, a stiff smile spreads on the face. Another journalist intervened.

"I know. You were Lieutenant Edment Durant of the 79th Regiment, weren't you? ”

“How did you... ”

“I've always been a fan. Although it's mostly limited to operations, you have no idea how detailed your information is. Although it's not uncommon to memorize something as trivial as me. Whew, I didn't suspect it was fake like anyone else. ”

Somehow, it reminded me of the comic book that the winter boy roared. There was a difference in the world view of government being properly maintained.

“Anyway, I'll talk to the captain about this separately. not just for you, but for the unruly soldiers. I'll be careful not to get hurt. ”

Winter silenced reporters with a gentle promise.

# Alien Covenant

I saw the new Alien series the day it opened.

I was expecting a lot, but it was a bad movie.

And of course, as an alien series, you still have your aesthetic. I enjoyed the snow.

In conclusion, it will be a film that lacks many corners but is worth watching...

# Q&A

Q. Kyonghwa: I tried to buy an @ eBook, but it's hard to manage many apps, so I'm using it unified. When will it be updated outside of the Book Cube? Other sites have only been updated with a free version and one copy. I was wondering when the monopoly would be released.

A. I don't know about the Book Cube, and the book was published six times yesterday. I don't think it's monopoly... but I think Naver demanded monopoly, but I think there's no monopoly other than that. I have to ask why a platform with only one volume is like that.
