620: Chapter 356: Welcoming (5 in 1)_4 620: Chapter 356: Welcoming (5 in 1)_4 An hour later, Su Ming and Lin Fang returned to the dormitory building.
After bidding farewell to Lin Fang, Su Ming walked into the cozy dormitory building.
He walked to the front of his dormitory door, the doors of the neighboring dorms were all tightly closed.
Su Ming pushed open his dormitory door, glanced at the empty dormitory, his gaze falling on Sun Lu’s bed, revealing a slight sadness on his face.
He clearly rembered the last vacation before serving, Sun Lu invited him to his house, but unfortunately, he never had the chance again.
Thirty of their classmates served, only twenty-five returned.
At this mont, Little Grey jumped out from Su Ming’s pocket, darting around the dormitory, then jumped onto Su Ming’s bed.
“You are quite smart, quickly identifying which is my bed.”
Su Ming walked to the bedside and sat down, reaching out to pet Little Grey’s head.
At that mont, a sound of footsteps ca from the door, followed by the door being pushed open, and Rhein and others walked in.
Seeing Su Ming, they all greeted him.
“Class leader.”
“Hmm, you’re back.
Did you find out what I asked you to?”
Su Ming asked calmly.
“Yes, tomorrow morning Sun Lu and the others will be moved to the Academy Cetery, at that ti their families will co to mourn.”
Rhein explained to Su Ming.
“Got it.
Prepare so flowers, notify everyone to gather at the cetery entrance tomorrow morning, we will pay our respects.”
Su Ming sighed slightly and said.
“Okay, but Matthew and the others are not at school.”
Rhein explained to Su Ming.
“Hmm.”
Su Ming nodded slightly in response.
….
The next morning, Su Ming and others arrived at the Imperial Court Academy’s southeast corner area, at the cetery entrance.
Allu and other girls stood there with bouquets, waiting for a long ti with sad expressions.
Su Ming walked up to the crowd and said to Allu and others.
“Cheer up, I think Sun Lu and the others wouldn’t want to see you like this.”
“Yes.”
Allu and others took a deep breath and replied.
Su Ming then led the crowd into the cetery.
Gentle breezes blew, the maple tree leaves swaying along the way, making a rustling sound as if welcoming them back.
Allu said to Su Ming.
“Class leader, the school buried Sun Lu and the other four together, their tombs are side by side.”
“That’s good, at least they have company.”
Su Ming nodded slightly and said.
Before long, Su Ming and others arrived at a slanted small hillside, where new tombstones were erected.
You could see family mbers standing in front of the tombstones, crying softly.
Su Ming and others walked over with heavy hearts.
Among these newly erected tombstones, besides Sun Lu and the other four, so were also from the Thirteenth Legion.
When Allu and others walked over, they placed bouquets in front of their tombstones.
Soon, Su Ming and the others reached the area on the right side of the hillside, seeing five side-by-side tombstones, with bouquets placed in front.
In front of these tombstones stood many family mbers dressed in black, sobbing quietly.
Among the family mbers were Sun Lu’s parents, grandparents, and siblings.
When they walked over, Sun Lu’s parents turned to look at them, with sadness on their faces.
Su Ming led Rhein and others over, first placing bouquets in front of Sun Lu and others’ tombstones, then bowing to each tombstone one by one.
After this, Su Ming led Rhein and others to turn, deeply bowing to Sun Lu’s parents, sincerely saying,
“I’m sorry, I didn’t take good care of them.”
At this ti, a middle-aged man with white sideburns and glasses spoke with red eyes.
“You are Sun Lu’s class leader, Su Ming, right?”
“Yes.”
Su Ming replied solemnly.
“Sun Lu ntioned you to , saying you took good care of him.
As a class leader, you did very well.
His sacrifice is not your fault; war is inherently cruel.
We prepared ourselves for this when we sent him to Imperial Court Academy.”
Sun Ke said, choking back sobs.
At that mont, Zhu Wei’s family mbers also spoke with red eyes.
“Yes, they sacrificed to protect the Federation.
We are proud of them.”
Hearing their words, Rhein and others felt even more sorrowful.
“Thank you.
If you need any help in the future, feel free to find .”
Su Ming took a deep breath and said seriously to Sun Ke and others.
Hearing Su Ming’s words, Sun Ke and others said nothing, just quietly looking at the tombstones, their expressions increasingly sorrowful.
At this mont, bursts of breezes blew, stirring the corners of Su Ming and others’ clothes.
…..
Next morning, inside the dormitory building.
Su Ming slowly got up, went to the bathroom, turned on the faucet, combined his hands, and caught so cool water, gently patting it on his face.
Instantly, he felt refreshed.
Buzz Buzz~
Suddenly, his bracelet started vibrating.
Su Ming picked up a towel, wiped his cheeks, raised his bracelet and glanced at it, montarily stunned, then answered, saying,
“Mother?”
“My darling son, are you up?”
“Yes, I am.”
“I’m almost at Starlight City central station, I’m here to see you.”
Zhao Ning said happily to Su Ming.
“Huh?
Mother, why did you co over?
The situation isn’t very safe recently, did you co alone?”
“No, your father is with .”
“He’s here too?”
Su Ming was even more surprised to hear this, as Su Yuan was adamantly unwilling to co to Starlight City.
“Yes, we were worried about you, besides we haven’t seen you for so long, so we ca.
Son, isn’t it a pleasant surprise?”
