Chapter 403 Zhou Yue's Flight Suspension

"How did you get here? This is utterly ridiculous!"

"All I know is that if I hadn't come, you two brothers would have died here."

"Go to sleep, we'll be safe after a good night's sleep."

This wasn't the first time Zhou Yue had woken up from a dream in a fright. When he dreamed of Xiao Jiu again and heard those incredibly realistic voices, he felt a strange chill run from the soles of his feet straight to his head.

Similarly, Zhou Xing was also awake. Hearing the noise, he turned to look at his brother: "Dreaming again?"

"Brother, I've been wondering who saved us."

Zhou Xing also found it unbelievable. "Yes, who saved us? My injuries were so severe, I should have died by now. I can't even explain it myself, so it's no wonder people don't believe us. How could they believe us? All the Japanese soldiers are dead, only the two of us and those civilians who were captured for experiments survived. This is clearly our personnel, so why doesn't he show his face?"

Zhou Yue, however, imagined a possibility in his mind: if what he had just experienced was not a dream, but a fact that existed in his memory, then Xiao Jiu was the person behind it all.

But how did she get onto the island? And how did she manage to kill all the Japanese soldiers on the island all by herself?

And then there was her line, "If I hadn't come, you two brothers would both have died here."

That means they survived only because she went; if she hadn't gone, they would have been doomed.

These scenarios and dialogues have replayed in his mind countless times these past few days, and he is now caught in a state of self-doubt.

I feel like this is the truth, but I can't figure out how she did it.

But the child refused to say anything.

Zhou Xing, seemingly lost in thought, suddenly uttered a meaningful remark.

“Niu Feng told me before that Xiao Jiu was on the train when it exploded last time, and it was thanks to her that those things were eventually found.”

So, Yue, is it possible that the child really did save us?

It turns out that Zhou Xing had also been pondering how likely this was.

But for some reason, Zhou Yue denied it.

"It can't be her, how old is she?"

She had never even touched a gun, at most she had held a kitchen knife, yet she managed to kill a hundred or so Japanese soldiers on the island?

Could she move the entire island without making a sound?

"Brother, are you kidding me?"

Zhou Xing fell silent. "If this is destined to be unsolvable, do you know what that means?"

Zhou Yue didn't care at all: "I never expected to make a contribution. I just did it on instinct. I even regret implicating the two of them. As for what they think of us and how they treat us, I don't care. At worst, I'll just transfer to civil aviation. But I think if we pin this on Xiao Jiu, they'll believe it and give you a contribution?"

Zhou Xing turned to look at Zhou Yue in disbelief: "Is that what you think of me? You think I only care about the credit? Do you really see me as that mercenary?"

Zhou Yue stared intently at Zhou Xing: "Under no circumstances will I allow you to project your ideas onto her!"

Zhou Xing was so angry by his words that he coughed violently. Because of the large movement, he pulled on his wound. He groaned and endured the pain, gritting his teeth as he spoke to Zhou Yue.

"What do you take me for? She's your sister, but isn't she my sister too?"

"You didn't understand what I meant at all. Didn't you notice anything in common between these two incidents?"

After Zhou Xing finished speaking slowly and deliberately, Zhou Yue sensed that something was wrong with him and didn't listen to what he was saying at all. When he lifted the blanket and saw his hospital gown soaked in blood, he immediately ran out in a panic.

"Doctor, doctor, quick! My brother's wound has reopened!"

When they arrived, Zhou Xing was already unconscious due to excessive blood loss. Zhou Yue was so frightened that he kept calling his name. In the end, he was pulled aside by the doctors and nurses and watched helplessly as they tried to save him, eventually even taking him into the operating room.

Just as the relationship between the two brothers was in crisis because of a single sentence, Cui Mei, who was in her sleep, turned over uneasily and mumbled something in her sleep.

Xiao Jiu was haunted by the terrifying scenes created by the Japanese devils, and her nightmares persisted for more than ten days without any improvement.

I toss and turn every night, unable to fall asleep. I have nightmares as soon as I do fall asleep, so I have no choice but to take sleeping pills to help me sleep.

Fortunately, she is a medical student and knows the dosage, so she has not experienced any physical or mental discomfort so far.

After more than half a month of this, Xiao Jiu gradually returned to normal and reduced her use of sleeping pills.

She was concerned about the health of Zhou Xing and Zhou Yue, and sent several telegrams, but received no reply.

Finally, it was from Tang Cuimei's letter that Zhou Xing learned that his wound had reopened and he had been transferred to a military hospital in Beijing.

Cui Mei would occasionally go over to help him with acupuncture and wound treatment, so she was quite familiar with Zhou Xing's condition.

After Zhou Yue was discharged from the hospital, he returned to his original unit and asked Xiao Jiu to contact him and send a letter to the Aviation Academy.

I had just sent a letter to the West Market when I received her letter at the post office. Upon looking at the sender, I realized it was Zhou Yue.

The letter stated that he was sent to the Air Force Hospital for injury assessment because of the scars on his body. The assessment mainly focused on the location of the scars, as fighter pilots have extremely stringent physical requirements. At high altitudes, the air pressure can cause scars to reopen. Military aircraft fly at high speeds and change altitudes very quickly, and often need to perform difficult maneuvers such as rolls, which can result in sudden and significant changes in air pressure. Therefore, the hospital was taking responsibility for his safety.

Between the lines, she could see his worry and confusion, and even countless sorrows swirling within him.

Four years of military aviation training, countless drills, and a hard-won promotion opportunity, only to be ruined by being shot...

Xiao Jiu was stunned after reading the letter. "How could I have forgotten something so important? No wonder he's been in low spirits; he must have been worried about this for a while now."

In reality, the so-called injury assessment is nothing more than a way to comfort oneself. Judging from this, Zhou Yue's flying career is probably coming to an end.

Suddenly I feel a little sorry for this promising young pilot!

The military aviation leadership also felt a sense of regret; upon learning of such a promising young player's injury, they were indignant, complaining, and frustrated...

After a barrage of emotions, I started to feel sorry for him again.

In fact, what did he do wrong? Anyone would have done the same in such a situation, especially since the two brothers had narrowly escaped death this time. If it weren't for some things that were hard to explain, with this contribution, Zhou Yue's future career would only be easier.

What a pity!

Rules are rules.

He is injured and it is now a fact that he cannot fly fighter jets.

Now he only has two paths to take.

First, you can switch to civil aviation and continue flying planes.

Second, the Air Force Special Operations Brigade was downgraded, and everything started from scratch.

Why a special operations brigade?

Because Zhou Yue's physical fitness is outstanding, his performance in various indicators is no less than that of special forces soldiers.

With proper training, he can still shine in other areas.
