“Cut your hair. It’s too long for the mission.”
Ye Tianxin hurriedly protected her hair. How could she bring herself to cut it?
Her beautiful long black hair was her trademark.
“No, I couldn’t bear to cut it.”
The man looked at Ye Tianxin sternly and said, “Little girl, you don’t need to be pretty to be a war reporter. You just have to get the job done. Do you understand?”
“I understand, but it has nothing to do with my hair.”
“Women are so hypocritical.”
The people in the war reporter camp set off overnight, and the rugged SUVs were running wildly in the desert with the dust all over the sky.
Ye Tianxin raised her wrist and looked at the compass on her watch.
She was getting nervous.
For the convenience of action and to avoid bothering people, Ye Tianxin specially braided her hair, rolled it up, and put it on top of her head.
She even wrapped a colorful kerchief around her head.
She looked very exotic.
Augustine handed a charcoal black object to Ye Tianxin.
“Here, put some of this on your face.”
There was a lot of fighting going on where they were. It’s too dangerous for women, especially beautiful women.
“Thanks.”
Ye Tianxin didn’t care that much and put it on her face.
She started out looking like a pretty little girl, but now she looked more like a man with black charcoal on her face.
“As a senior war reporter, I advise you not to trust anyone here. Men, women, children, pregnant women, old people… you can’t believe anyone. Innocent people will eventually be killed here.”
” OK,” Ye Tianxin said. She put her hand on the door of the SUV.
Augustine took out a pack of cigarettes and lit one for himself.
The pungent smell of nicotine drifted into Ye Tianxin’s nose, and she couldn’t help but cough slightly.
Augustine glanced at Ye Tianxin.
“You look like a spoiled little princess. Why do you come to such a place?”
Ye Tianxin said nothing.
The old man seemed to have a lot to say.
“Do you think I talk too much?”
Jesse laughed at herself. “That’s because I’m driving myself to depression in the middle of nowhere…”
“How long have you been here?”
Ye Tianxin knew that Augustine wanted to find someone to chat with, so she simply chatted with him to pass the time.
“Five years.”
Five years?
Ye Tianxin was surprised.
“Yes, five years. When I first came here five years ago, it was quiet and peaceful here. Now, look at all the debris everywhere…”
Augustine saw for himself how the land was devastated by the war.
“Peace is precious.”
“This is the duty of us war reporters. We must use our actions to call on people all over the world to love peace.”
“One day, there will be no war in this world.”
Augustine laughed at himself after speaking.
“I think I’m naive.”
Where there were people, there were interests.
Where there were interests, there were disputes.
Where there were disputes, there was a war.
“No, you’re not. Your wish is beautiful.”
Augustine smiled heartily and said, “It’s just not going to happen, is it?”
Ye Tianxin comforted Augustine by saying, “That’s not true. Maybe it’ll happen sometime in the future.”
