Chapter 544: Surprises and Turns in the Hospital
When he opened the door, Qi Tongwei saw the little girl running around happily in the ward. Her little face was rosy and full of vitality.
The pale and weak appearance from before had completely disappeared. Seeing this scene, Qi Tongwei showed a relieved smile on his face.
However, he also noticed that there was a small piece of medical tape on the little girl's arm, which indicated that she still needed regular injections to consolidate the effects of the treatment.
In the ward, Qi Tongwei saw the lame little boy playing games with the little girl.
There was a glimmer of joy in the little boy's eyes, completely different from the fear and confusion in his eyes when Qi Tongwei saw him before.
However, Qi Tongwei soon discovered something that seemed a little different.
There seemed to be a pair of strange adults beside the little boy.
The couple looked very kind, and their eyes were full of love for the little boy.
At this time, a nurse came over and saw Qi Tongwei observing the little boy and the couple, so she took the initiative to explain: "Mr. Qi, this is good news."
"We found his biological parents."
There was a hint of joy in the nurse's voice.
Qi Tongwei nodded slightly and felt happy for the little boy.
The nurse continued, "His parents want to take him back home. After all, they haven't seen him for so many years and they miss him very much."
"But this little boy is particularly worried about Doudou."
The nurse pointed to the little girl who was playing. It turned out that the little girl's name was Doudou.
"His parents felt very distressed when they saw how much the little boy cared about Doudou."
"They are very kind people and wanted to adopt Doudou as well."
"But we still have to follow procedures at the hospital. We said we'll wait and see if we can find Doudou's biological parents."
"After all, every child deserves to return to their true family. If they can't find one, it's not too late to consider adoption."
The nurse patiently told Qi Tongwei the whole story.
Qi Tongwei was filled with emotion as he listened to the nurse's story.
He looked at the little boy and girl playing, and hoped that they would have a bright future, whether returning to their biological parents or being adopted by kind people, as long as they could stay away from the suffering they had experienced.
It seemed that the lame little boy beside Doudou told her that Qi Tongwei was her savior, and a hint of surprise flashed in Doudou's bright eyes.
She looked at Qi Tongwei happily, her eyes full of admiration and gratitude.
Then, as if she suddenly remembered something important, she turned around and hurried back to the room with her still slightly childish steps.
Qi Tongwei looked at her back with some curiosity, wondering what the little girl was going to do.
After a while, Doudou ran out of the room again, holding a piece of paper tightly in his little hand.
She ran to Qi Tongwei and handed him the paper shyly.
Qi Tongwei took it and looked at it, and it turned out to be a certificate.
This certificate is made of ordinary paper, with various small flowers and clouds painted on it using colorful brushes.
In the middle of the certificate, the four big words "Thank You Hero" were written in crooked handwriting.
Although the handwriting was childish, it was written very carefully, and Doudou's care could be seen in every stroke.
There were also a few words written below, "Thank you uncle for saving me, I will definitely repay you when I grow up."
"You are a good person. You were sent by the gods to save me."
Qi Tongwei looked at the certificate with mixed feelings.
In this child's world, everything is so beautiful and pure.
She expressed her gratitude to Qi Tongwei in the best way she could think of, treating him as a hero and a god-like existence.
Qi Tongwei thought of his fighting on the battlefield and his efforts in dangerous missions. Although those experiences were full of hardships and challenges, at this moment, he felt that this small certificate was more precious than any medal.
This is a child's most sincere recognition of him, a gratitude without any impurities.
The corners of his mouth rose unconsciously, and tears of emotion welled up in his eyes.
He gently touched Doudou's head and said in a choked voice, "Doudou, this is the most special gift uncle has ever received. Uncle likes it very much."
After hearing what Qi Tongwei said, Doudou smiled brightly. Her eyes curved into crescents and she said happily, "Uncle, I'm glad you like it. I will draw more certificates for you in the future."
When the people around saw this scene, they were also infected by this innocent picture and showed warm smiles on their faces.
Qi Tongwei looked at the innocent Doudou in front of him, holding the childlike certificate tightly in his hand, but his thoughts involuntarily drifted to Bingbing.
Doudou is like a ray of pure sunshine, her world is full of beauty and gratitude.
She used her childish brushstrokes to depict her admiration for her savior. In her little heart, right and wrong were like a black and white painting, clear and simple.
She knew that Qi Tongwei saved her, so he was a good man and a hero who deserved to be thanked in the best way.
However, Bingbing was like a flower stuck in a quagmire, swallowed up by the darkness of sin in the hands of human traffickers.
A complex look flashed in Qi Tongwei's eyes. He was well aware of the impact of the environment on people, but Bingbing's transformation still made him feel sad.
Bingbing has been floating in that evil environment for many years and has long lost the ability to distinguish right from wrong.
On the brink of life and death, she tried to use those sinful organs in order to survive, and even said such selfish and cruel words to her own parents.
She became the person most hated by all soldiers and police, going against justice and driven by dark desires.
Qi Tongwei couldn't help but compare Doudou and Bingbing in his mind.
Doudou's smile is like a flower blooming in spring, warm and full of hope; while Bingbing's eyes are filled with madness and calculation.
Doudou's gratitude is so pure, without any impurities; Bingbing's request is full of greed and selfishness.
One thrives under the nourishment of love and kindness, while the other sinks deeper and deeper into the abyss of sin and darkness.
This contrast made Qi Tongwei feel mixed emotions.
He was comforted by Doudou's innocence, but also felt deeply sad for Bingbing's degeneration.
He knew that Bingbing's fate was a tragedy, but her choice also made him see the fragility and complexity of human nature in extreme circumstances.
Qi Tongwei hopes that there will be more children like Doudou in the world who grow up in sunshine and love, and no more souls like Bingbing who are swallowed by darkness.
Because of his outstanding performance in this mission, Qi Tongwei stood on the podium of the army and is about to receive a first-class individual merit.
The entire award ceremony venue was solemn and dignified, and the sunlight shone on the military uniforms, reflecting a dazzling light.
Below the stage, comrades lined up neatly, their eyes filled with respect and admiration.
When Qi Tongwei's name was announced, many people looked at him with tears in their eyes.
These comrades are well aware of the difficulties and obstacles Qi Tongwei experienced during the mission. Every dangerous moment and every difficult decision have contributed to today's glory.
Hao Shizhong walked towards Qi Tongwei with steady steps, holding the medal and certificate representing the highest honor in his hands.
There was a gratified smile on his face, which contained recognition and appreciation for Qi Tongwei.
Hao Shizhong personally presented the award to Qi Tongwei. When he put the medal on Qi Tongwei's chest, that gentle press seemed to convey endless trust and expectations.
Hao Shizhong patted Qi Tongwei on the shoulder and said, "The mailbox at the base has been packed these days with thank-you letters from the victims' families."
"Every one of those letters is filled with gratitude to our troops and to you. You are truly a hero of the people."
His voice was loud and powerful, echoing throughout the venue, allowing everyone to feel the weight of this honor.
Qi Tongwei stood straight, his eyes firm and humble.
He said: "I appreciate everyone's trust in me, but I would rather there were no victims."
"Behind every victim is a broken family and endless pain."
"Our mission is to protect people, not to accept thanks after a tragedy."
His words were so powerful that everyone present fell into deep thought.
After the award ceremony, Qi Tongwei and Hao Shizhong came to the office and began to give feedback on Chen Ran’s performance in this mission.
Qi Tongwei's expression was serious and solemn. He said to Hao Shizhong, "Deputy Commander Hao, I want to talk to you about Chen Ran."
"During this mission, I found that he demonstrated very outstanding abilities."
Qi Tongwei sat in his chair, leaning forward slightly, and continued, "Chen Ran remained extremely calm when faced with the complex battlefield environment."
"Whether it's a sudden enemy attack or a difficult mission like rescuing abducted people, he can make quick and accurate judgments."
"He also has excellent military skills. During firefights with the enemy, his shooting accuracy was very high, and he provided strong fire support for our operations on many occasions."
Qi Tongwei paused, took a sip of water, and then continued, "Furthermore, he also has a strong spirit of teamwork."
"He always cooperates well with his teammates and supports each other at critical moments."
"That quality of his is very critical in special operations."
"I think Chen Ran should be given more attention for training. I'm very optimistic about his abilities."
"If we can give him more opportunities and resources, he will definitely become a sharp weapon for our troops."
Hao Shizhong listened carefully to Qi Tongwei's story and nodded from time to time.
His eyes revealed his trust in Qi Tongwei's judgment, and he also showed a strong interest in Chen Ran, the young soldier. He said, "Qi Tongwei, what you said makes a lot of sense."
"I have some understanding of this young man Chen Ran. Hearing what you said, he is indeed a promising talent."
"We will seriously consider his training plan."
