Girls und War

At that moment, the female military doctor who had brought her back yesterday came jogging over. She gave Xia Shu a gentle smile that she had practiced for a long time and whispered, "Are you awake? Are you conscious?"

Looking at the young military doctor in a white coat, Xia Shu nodded.

"What's this?" The military doctor held up two fingers.

"two."

"What is your name?"

"Xia Shu. The flower is large and the food is driven away. The tree is the philosopher's foolish summer." Xia Shu said that he was very clear-headed.

This was to test whether she had any aftereffects of anesthesia.

The military doctor nodded and wrote something on her bedside, saying, "Hello, Xia Shu, I'm Lieutenant C from the Frontline Medical Center. I'm currently your attending physician. If you need anything or feel uncomfortable, you can come to me."

Natsuki hummed and turned to look elsewhere in the room.

She was currently in a huge room.

Unlike the single-room wards in the hospital I remember, this is a front-line medical area with many beds, like a warehouse.

Or rather, this is indeed a medical center converted from a warehouse.

Xia Shu was currently lying on one of the many beds in the medical center.

370. What is more noticeable than the treatment time is the sudden vacation

There is enough space in this ward to accommodate more than a dozen beds.

However, the hospital beds were not filled with seriously injured people as Xia Shu had expected.

Except for a few beds with real people lying on them, the other beds were filled with other things.

They were white shadows with human shapes, which looked like girls, but they were human shapes made of light.

It's a bit like the advanced life forms in science fiction movies.

There is a tool standing in front of each bed, who seems to be monitoring the data status of the white figures.

If you think about it carefully, you can understand what these figures are.

Those were girls who were seriously injured on the battlefield. It seemed that for some reason, their physical bodies were not in this place.

Seeing Xia Shu's curious gaze towards the white lights and shadows, Xiao C immediately asked with a smile, "You've never been to the medical center?"

"No." Xia Shu nodded honestly.

"Those girls were injured on the front line just like you." Little C explained immediately.

"Are they offline?" Xia Shu asked.

"Well, you don't need to be present during the treatment. After all, a serious injury requires at least half a month of treatment. Who would like to lie down for half a month? The medical center has special offline methods, and you can also log off when the time comes." She added.

Xia Shu nodded and quickly asked, "How long will it take to treat my injuries?"

"Hmm..." Little C thought for a moment and replied, "The bones are almost completely severed. It's no different from a broken limb. Logically, it should take at least a month to recover."

"Oh." Xia Shu nodded in understanding.

The two were talking when they suddenly heard a groan from the side, as if someone had woken up.

Xia Shu turned around and saw Xiao Tang rubbing her eyes and yawning at Xia Shu.

"Xia Shu, you are here too?" Xiao Tang looked a little surprised.

"Well, where's the smiley face?" Xia Shu asked.

Xiaotang pointed to the girl who was sleeping soundly on the bed opposite.

"Okay," Xiao C put down the medical record book in his hand and said to Xia Shu with a smile, "Don't worry, I will definitely keep you healthy."

"What about me?" Xiaotang asked, looking up.

"Ah? I'm not your attending physician, so I don't know." The young military doctor said very innocently.

Xiaotang nodded expressionlessly and said nothing more.

After she left, Xiaotang put on a fake sneer and said, "Humph, woman."

"What?" Xia Shu didn't hear clearly.

Xiaotang looked at Xia Shu and didn't dwell too much on this topic.

Instead, he asked, "What happened after I left? Did you kill Little Jack?"

"Oh...yeah, I did take out Little Jack."

As she spoke, she began to describe her thrilling and bloody battle in the residential building.

As Xiaotang listened, her eyes gradually widened, with an expression that said, "What movie plot are you telling me?"

Xia Shu's account from the hospital bed contained many more details than the actual battle.

For example, the direction of the footsteps at that time and the force used when fighting with a knife.

Although she didn't understand, it didn't stop Xiaotang from looking at her with admiration.

The story continued until noon, and Xia Shu stopped only when the tools brought lunch.

Smiley Face was sleeping soundly until Little C came in and called her, then she woke up.

"Ah? Xia Shu? You're here too?" The smiling face looked puzzled.

"You should be glad that I came here." Xia Shu said immediately with a smile.

Smiley thought for a moment and said, "That's right. If you didn't come, it means you're gone."

"Okay, okay, let's eat first, and then chat after dinner. Okay." Little C handed the lunch to the tools, and took out three special lunch boxes from under the cupboard and placed them in front of the three awake people.

"This is a special medical center lunch, only for sober people, and it's specially brought to you." She said to the three girls with a smile.

"Sure." Smiling face opened the lunch box in front of him with great interest.

Xia Shu observed that the lunches in front of other beds were brought by the helpers, and they were strange energy blocks that looked like sugar cubes.

I guess they are some mass-produced, very cheap energy supplements.

The military doctor girl must have put a lot of thought into the food in their hands.

Just as I was about to open the lunch box, Little C suddenly came over and picked up the lunch box.

"Your shoulder is injured and you can't move. Let me feed you." Little C said in an attitude that could not be refused.

Xia Shu wanted to say that she injured her left shoulder, but Xiao C's eager gaze made it impossible for her to say such words.

"Hello! Military doctor. My shoulder is injured too." Smiley Face said loudly.

"I'm not your attending physician, there's no point calling me!" Xiao C said very rudely.

"Damn!" The smiling face was full of dissatisfaction.

Xiaotang sneered again.

"Come on, open your mouth, ah——"

Looking at the flowering intestines in front of him, Xia Shu opened his mouth helplessly.

"what--"

"Good boy." Little C looked happy.

After finishing lunch, she asked the helper to clean up and said gently to Xia Shu, "I'll give you a full body check later. If there are no problems, you can log off directly."

"What about me? What about me?" Smiley Face asked loudly from the other side.

"And me." Xiaotang also raised her hand.

"I'll do it for you guys as well." Little C said to them without any hesitation.

Seeing this, the two of them quickly fell into deep thought.

They are both injured, why is there such a big difference?

The two looked at each other, and then looked at Xia Shu's face in tacit understanding.

Xia Shu was bewildered by the look.

But an hour later, the three of them completed the inspection together.

"Okay, thirty days on the battlefield and ten days in the outside world. You can take a short vacation now." Xiao C said with a smile.

As she spoke, she unfolded the battlefield-like military flag in the center of the room - the Medical Red Cross flag.

The bodies of the three girls began to slowly become transparent, and Xia Shu once again experienced the feeling of withdrawing from the battlefield.

"Looking forward to seeing you next time, Xia Shu." Little C waved to Xia Shu again.

Xia Shu also greeted her.

Finally, Xia Shu's consciousness began to reconstruct.

When I opened my eyes again, it was the familiar coffin warehouse.

Xiaotang and Xia Shu walked out of the infiltration warehouse together. After ticking √ on the confirmation form, they went to the bathroom to take a bath and then returned to the camp.

There was no one in the camp. Xia Shu originally thought that the seriously injured Xiao Le would be waiting for them in the camp, but he was not there.

"Where is Xiaole?" Xia Shu asked Xiaotang.

"Let's go to class." Xiaotang replied expressionlessly, as if she had regained her image as a girl with expressionless face.

"What class?" Xia Shu never thought that anyone in the squadron was particularly studious.

"As for the self-help course, you'll know when the time comes." Xiaotang turned to look at Xia Shu, "We're going too."

371. Post-event discussion on the imaginary battlefield

Xia Shu was not completely unaware of the self-help courses.

But her understanding was limited to learning self-rescue skills after being seriously injured.

That's it.

Perhaps it would be better to take these kinds of preemptive courses before getting hurt?

But when you think about it, the usual training requires enough learning, and with some first aid classes that may not be used, these girls may not be able to listen.

Only after they have suffered losses on the battlefield and felt the pain, and then studied this subject, did they realize the importance of this subject.

But Xia Shu had no idea what to learn specifically.

It is expected to be some knowledge about self-hemostasis and movement.

She didn't pay attention to the details. You couldn't expect every girl in this kind of course to get a degree in first aid. It must be something simple enough for Lian Sheng to understand.

In that case, there is no way Xia Shu couldn't learn it.

Just like Xiaotang said, we’ll know when the time comes.

The two were not in a hurry. They just chatted about random things in the camp, basked in the sun, ate something, and enjoyed the rare leisure time.

What broke their peace and tranquility afterwards was not the class notice.

But an unexpected visitor.

Smiley Face somehow got the address of their camp and found his way over here according to the house number.

"Yo." She greeted the two of them at the door.

Xia Shu walked forward and pressed the access button in the gatehouse.

The guard robot on the side ended the interrogation and let Smiley Face in.

"It's a bit far, it's three blocks away." Smiley Face said with a smile.

Xia Shu nodded, indicating that he understood.

It did not surprise Xia Shu that the ace sniper, who was ranked as one of the best in this flower district, was a member of the front-line troops like them.

To her surprise, Smiley's rank was captain.
