Please Don’t Give Up on Me

The village Qi Yue and the others went to was located in a valley in the southwest of the capital.

As the car dealer approached the village, Qi Yue had already seen a large group of people standing at the entrance of the village, including adults and children. The adults waved to their convoy enthusiastically, and a few and a half-year-old children were holding a banner—the banner said "Welcome" in crooked English.

Qi Yue noticed that the robes on many adults were very old and still had holes.

"Ah, those children are barefoot, is this their habit?" the little nurse in the front row suddenly asked.

Qi Yue's throat choked slightly, and then said, "No, it's because of poverty."

The little nurse shrank her neck and gave a cautious ‘ah’, without daring to ask any more.

Qi Yue and the others did not delay after entering the village, and immediately visited the families with patients from house to house.

Most of the common diseases they encountered were relatively easy to deal with, except for a little girl.

Her symptoms are very strange.

The girl was lying on the bed weakly, clutching her belly, moaning constantly, her whole body still hot. According to the girl’s mother, she had frequent pains in her lower abdomen, as well as urgency, dysuria and hematuria.

Qi Yue: "How many days has she been in this situation?"

The girl’s mother wiped her tears and said in Arabic: “It’s been a week and I watched her lose weight day by day.”

Qi Yue frowned and thought for a moment: "Did she eat anything weird recently? Or, did she go somewhere to play?"

After the translation was given to the girl’s mother, the woman shook her head: “Every day I eat at my own home. What I eat is the same as usual. However, when she went to play by the river with a group of children a few days ago Choked a few saliva."

Qi Yue frowned slightly.

The woman suddenly held Qi Yue's hand and knelt down, "Doctor, I beg you, I must save my daughter!"

Qi Yue hurriedly helped her up: "Don't worry, we will try our best to treat your daughter. However, her symptoms are very serious, and it is not easy to determine what the cause is. If you don't mind, can we take her back to the medical treatment? Station? There is equipment over there to do a more comprehensive inspection for her."

The woman nodded repeatedly: "No problem, no problem, as long as I can save her, I can do anything."

Qi Yue: "However, there are not enough seats in our car. Take her back today, and tomorrow I will pick you up to the medical station, okay?"

The woman nodded when she heard: "Okay, okay! Thank you doctor!"

During the lunch break, everyone was eating, but Qi Yue walked towards the river near the village alone.

As he walked through a small forest and a shoal overgrown with weeds, Qi Yue suddenly felt that something hard was stepped on under his feet.

Qi Yue lowered his head and saw a small tin box buried in the soil under his feet.

She was about to lift her foot, but suddenly there was a violent shout behind her:

"do not move!!"

…

Qi Yue turned his head and saw Lin Jing walk towards her quickly with a gloomy expression.

Qi Yue frowned: "You have been following me?"

As she walked all the way from the village, she didn't hear any footsteps behind her, or even any sound. Lin Jing's skills with people can be regarded as fascinating.

Lin Jing took out the military dagger he carried with him from his waist, walked on his own, and squatted down in front of Qi Yue: "I'll talk nonsense. What you stepped on is a booby trap."

Qi Yue: "..."

She had read about booby traps in theory books, but she had never seen them. After all, Qi Yue is a medical student, so making booby traps and bomb disposal are not required courses. Booby mines are similar in name to landmines, but they are more flexible and widely used. Unlike landmines, explosives are not necessarily added to booby mines, and they are not necessarily buried in the ground. It can appear in front of people in any posture, such as a lipstick, a beer bottle, and a chocolate candy box. The detonation mechanism may just be some ordinary daily actions, such as opening doors, unpacking boxes, picking up objects or even turning on lights.

After Qi Yue's initial confusion, a layer of cold sweat gradually formed on his back. If it hadn't been for Lin Jing to stop her just now, maybe she was cold now.

Lin Jing first observed the external structure of this booby trap, tapped the outer shell of the iron box with a knife handle, and then had a preliminary judgment on the inner structure.

He raised his head to look at Qi Yue and found that Qi Yue was also looking down at him.

The expression on her face was fairly calm, but the confusion in her eyes revealed her mood at this time.

Lin Jing suddenly raised his hand and held Qi Yue's slightly trembling hand hanging beside him.

His palms are warm and dry. She could feel the calluses on his palm that had been worn out from holding the gun all the year round. It was not annoying, but it made people feel a touch of peace of mind. He just kept holding her hand without saying a word, and wrapped her helplessness and vacillation tightly in it.

Lin Jing looked at her: "Trust me?"

Qi Yue nodded lightly.

Lin Jing: "Okay, I'm going to start bomb disposal now. All you can do is keep your current strength and step on this thunder. Can you do it?"

Qi Yue nodded again, this time firmer.

"Lin Jing." Qi Yue suddenly called him, his voice low and dumb, "If the bomb disposal fails, you may die here too."

Lin Jing lowered his head, and a slight curve formed at the corner of his mouth: "Then die here."

As soon as the voice fell, the sharp blade in his hand cut open the side of the tin box in an instant...

Lin Jing carefully removed the cut side and threw it aside. He lowered his head to the ground and looked at the inside of the iron box intently—a little finger-sized detonator lay quietly in the middle of the tangled colorful wires, and a very thin copper wire that was not easily visible to the naked eye was attached to the head of the detonator. That is the lead of this booby trap, Lin Jing needs to cut it off.

The location of the detonator is very tricky. It is not impossible to force the detonator out, but there is a risk of detonating it directly.

Lin Jing: "Do you have any surgical scissors on your body."

When Qi Yue went out, he always carried a first aid kit on his body, which contained many basic first aid tools. Lin Jing had obviously thought of this too.

Qi Yue: "Are suture scissors okay?"

Lin Jing: "Yes."

Qi Yue immediately opened the first aid kit, turned out the suture bag from the inside, took out the small suture scissors inside, and handed it to Lin Jing.

Lin Jing pressed the messy electrical wires with a saber in one hand and suture shears in the other, and plunged into the iron box.

The suture shears clamped the lead wire precisely, Lin Jing paused slightly, and then the next one pressed hard and cut the lead wire instantly.

He continued to gently clamp the head of the detonator with scissors, and carefully dragged it out of the iron box.

Lin Jing squeezed the detonator and stood up.

Seeing what was in his hand, Qi Yue suffocated his breath, and didn't dare to let out the atmosphere.

Lin Jing said indifferently: "This thing is too dangerous, I will deal with it. You stand here and don't move, there is more than one thunder around you."

Qi Yue: "...My feet can always move." The foot that was stepping on the iron box was numb.

Lin Jing smiled suddenly: "Yes. Lieutenant Qi, listen to the password."

Qi Yue:? ? ?

Lin Jing: "Stand up!"

Qi Yue: "..."

After just nine deaths, this person is still in the mood to make a joke.

After Lin Jing took the booby thunder and walked into the woods aside, he reappeared in Qi Yue's line of sight.

Qi Yue: "How did you deal with it?"

Lin Jing: "It's buried underground."

Looking at her distrustful expression, Lin Jing said amused: "It is buried very deep, and it will be fine for people passing by to step on that area. Don't worry."

Qi Yue breathed a sigh of relief.

Qi Yue: "Thank you this time."

Lin Jing put a hand on her waist casually, and looked at her condescendingly, "What are you going to run around? If it wasn't for me to follow today, you would have been cold. Are you blind? Is it a minefield? I don't have the ability to fart, and I dare to run into the war zone."

Qi Yue: "..."

I really didn't see it.

Qi Yue knew that she was wrong, so she didn't talk back, and only silently explained: "The girl's illness is weird. Her symptoms are a bit like a parasitic disease I know. I suspect that the river here is polluted. , But I’m not sure, so I want to take some water samples and go back for testing."

Lin Jing raised his head and swept around the river beach, his face was very bad: "This beach has been buried with booby mines."

Qi Yue's heart moved slightly: "That Lei just now, did you look new?"

Lin Jing looked down at her: "It's very new. And it seems to have been rushed out."

Both of them thought of something at the same time, and their expressions were a little dignified for a while.

Qi Yue: "This water may be really problematic, so it must be taken."

Lin Jing was silent for a moment and nodded: "Okay, you give me things and I will get them."

Qi Yue categorically refused: "No!"

Lin Jing frowned fiercely.

Qi Yue: "I have a flora test paper on me, only I know where the water might be wrong."

Lin Jing: "You can tell me how to use the test paper."

"No." Qi Yue looked into his eyes seriously, "Either together, or I will go by myself."

Lin Jing let out a sigh of relief: "Don't make trouble."

Qi Yue: "I didn't make trouble."

Lin Jing gathered her eyebrows and slapped her tongue fiercely. He was about to explode, and then Qi Yue said:

"Lin Jing, you can't die here. And I won't die here. There are many things waiting for us to do."

Lin Jing: "..."

In the end, the two gave way to each other, and Lin Jing carried Qi Yue on his back towards the river.

Lin Jing's back is wide and strong, Qi Yue pressed against his warm body and hugged his neck tightly, as if he could hear his strong heartbeat. Whenever such a critical moment, Lin Jing would give her an illusion, as if the two should be one body, there is no unhappiness, no estrangement.

Lin Jing used tree branches to explore the way, carrying Qi Yue on his back to the river bank without any surprises and dangers.

Qi Yue chose a few spots and took a whole eight bottles of samples.

Lin Jing watched her serious work and couldn't help but smile: "Do you need so many bottles?"

Qi Yue said while labeling the samples: "Make sure nothing is wrong."

Lin Jing's eyes became soft for a moment when he heard this.

Qi Yue has always had this character since his school days. Do things, either don't do it, or do it 100%.

After collecting the samples, the two returned along the way with ease.

"Look, there is iris here!"

A beautiful purple and white suddenly appeared in his vision, and Qi Yue patted Lin Jing on the shoulder in surprise.

Lin Jing looked in the direction of her fingers, and there was a cluster of irises growing in full bloom on the shallows near the river. The purple-white petals are floating like butterflies, and they are like graceful dancers with their heads hanging down slightly.

"Do you like this flower very much?" Lin Jing asked.

Qi Yue: "Well. I always think that Iris is the best-looking flower in the world. I forgot where I saw it before, saying that Iris looks like a posture of missing someone."

Lin Jing: "Why?"

Qi Yue: "Do you look at the petals like looking up at a person."

Lin Jing's expression changed slightly, watching the flowers quietly, silent.

Qi Yue didn't realize it, and continued: "A person misses you in the place closest to you, for so long, but you don't know, so he takes some mourning postures again. Because no matter how he misses you, you Never understood..."

Lin Jing carried Qi Yue on his back and walked for a long time, until he was about to walk out of the minefield, but he heard Lin Jing whispered suddenly: "It's very similar."
