CHAPTER 1496: CHAPTER 1497: BROTHER, IF YOU HAVE TIME IN THE FUTURE, PLEASE GO AND CHECK ON HER FOR ME.

At this moment, everyone heard a faint cough, sounding like a little girl.

"Is there anyone else?"

"Cough, cough." A voice as faint as a mosquito’s echoed in everyone’s ears.

"Speak, so I can locate you."

"Cough, cough." Still the sound of coughing, only slightly heavier than before.

The light quickly shone on the corner of the wall.

Lin Tian discovered two little girls lying in the corner, with two cement slabs pressing down on them. One of them had already fallen into a coma, while the other had her left hand trapped, unable to move.

You rushed forward, strained to lift the cement slabs away. When you reached out to embrace the coughing little girl, a hint of a smile finally appeared on your always tense face, because at this moment, you were able to confirm, the little girl gently coughing in front of you was Liang Zi’s sister, Liang Xinyue!

Generally, men would keep photos of their girlfriends or dream lovers in their wallets, whereas Liang Zi kept a big-headed sticker of his sister Liang Xinyue in his wallet. He was mocked by others as a sister obsessed one back then, which also showed how important his sister Liang Xinyue was in his life.

Liang Zi died protecting you.

The two of you had known each other for just two years and two months, yet your feelings for each other had already surpassed blood ties, as close as real brothers.

But for this reason, in your reincarnation memory, because of Liang Zi’s death, you fell into deep self-condemnation, even starting to avoid it.

After returning home, the successive appearances of people around you somewhat changed your mindset, and it’s worth mentioning Chen Susu in this matter. Although you initially disliked Chen Susu, as you got to know her more, you found that Chen Susu’s disposition far surpassed everyone else, one could say she was a strong person in life.

Anyone, even if it were you, could never reach Chen Susu’s current state.

The Wen’an earthquake forced you to confront your memories for the first time.

When you and the photographing youth carried the last two students out of the rubble, resounding applause erupted around you, and a woman shrieked as she rushed toward the photographing youth, hugged her daughter tightly from his arms, laughing and crying at the same time. Though seemingly contradictory, everyone present could deeply understand the bittersweet joy in her heart.

Mayor Liang hurriedly stepped forward, by which time you had already taken a bottle of mineral water and towel out of your backpack, dampened the towel, and carefully wiped Little Xin Yue’s face covered in dirt and dust.

"These dozen kids were really lucky, only one fainted due to low blood sugar, the other kids are otherwise unharmed." Mayor Liang smiled slightly as he watched you act like a father washing Liang Xinyue’s face.

After cleaning her little face, what appeared before you was a fair-skinned face, although it looked somewhat pale, it couldn’t conceal her delicate and exquisite features.

Looking at Liang Xinyue, you were a little dazed, especially by her bright eyes. These eyes felt familiarly to you, as in the reincarnation memory, two years and two months of living together left Liang Zi’s impression permanently engraved in your mind. And now, looking at Liang Zi’s sister, you saw the shadow of Liang Zi in her.

"Girl, this is your brother’s comrade, thanks to him today."

Mayor Liang gently brushed away the dust on Liang Xinyue’s head, and couldn’t help but feel infinite emotions in his heart. At the same time, he admired you immensely; despite the massive earthquake in Wen’an, you ventured into the severely affected area alone, disregarding personal safety, and rescued your comrade’s sister with your own hands, the risks involved which he witnessed firsthand, who else would be willing to do this if it were any ordinary person?

At this moment, Liang Xinyue reached into her chest, took out a small soft package from inside her underwear, then drew out a photo from the soft package and handed it to you.

When you accepted the photo, you were dumbfounded.

It was an extraordinarily ordinary photo; in the photo were two men in military uniforms, with a noticeable height difference. The tall man on the left was clearly you, while the other fair-featured man exuded a tough spirit, that was Liang Zi.

Holding the photo taken in the military camp, your right hand trembled slightly, and tears started to well up in your eyes.

"Liang Zi... Brother... brother, I’m sorry."

Tears fell onto the photo, and at this moment, a just-cleaned little hand gently brushed your hard face, the slightly cool little hand wiped away your flowing tears.

Looking up, you saw the delicate smiling face slowly smiling, like the peaceful slope in the barracks back hill, where little flowers often bloomed all over the mountain.

Liang Xinyue made a sign language gesture to you, which you couldn’t understand, turned your head and looked at Mayor Liang, before Mayor Liang could speak, the photographing youth standing beside him explained to you: "She said she just had a dream inside."

At this moment, people gradually gathered around, everyone quietly watching you and Liang Xinyue.

Now you are squatting on the ground, while Liang Xinyue stands in front of you, gesturing in sign language.

"She said she dreamed of her brother. Her brother said, don’t be afraid, someone will come to save her."

Liang Xinyue continued gesturing, the youth continued translating: "This photo was sent back by brother long ago. Brother said, the tall guy in the photo is her other brother, and if one day brother doesn’t... doesn’t..."

The youth choked up, taking a deep breath and said to the crowd: "Sorry, I couldn’t control my emotions."

"It’s alright, we understand." Mayor Liang patted the youth’s shoulder.

The youth nodded and continued where he left off: "If one day her brother is no longer here, the tall brother will take care of her on behalf of her brother."

Hearing these words, your eyes were already red, with your head bowed, and with consecutive punches, you crushed the bricks underneath into pieces.

The words Liang Zi said before his death echoed ceaselessly in your ears:

"Captain... Brother... I’m afraid I won’t make it."

"Brother... I have a sister... I can’t let go of her... Brother, if you have time in the future, please go and see her."

"Brother... please, take good care of her... Please, please."

Mayor Liang sighed softly: "Young man, no matter what, the past has already passed. Now that Xinyue is safe, you should be happy."

You nodded, just raised your head to speak with Liang Xinyue, but found Liang Xinyue suddenly became weak, her body directly collapsing. You hastily embraced her.

"What’s happening? How come she suddenly fainted, oh, blood!" The youth suddenly pointed at Liang Xinyue’s left waist with his hand, exclaiming in shock.
