Chapter 1142 He&##x27;s Normal

Lucas' face changed slightly.

Who else in the group could hack into his computer like this?

"Edison?"

Lucas quickly sent a message.

And soon he got the reply.

"Lucas, it's me."

Seeing the reply, Lucas missed his team members.

"You don't know how to have a chat with me? Why do you hack into my computer? What's wrong? You
want to compete with me in the Trojan horse program?"

Lucas typed quickly.

Edison paused for a moment, and then replied, "Lucas, I have some bad news for you."

"It's almost New Year. Can you tell me some good news?"

Lucas felt that Edison was really funny.

However, Edison directly converted the words into black and white fonts and said heavily, "Lucas, our
team member Lexie died."

Lucas was stunned.

"What do you mean?"



As one of their team members, Lexie was also the only girl over eighteen years old. Before Lucas
joined the team, Lexie was the team leader. Later, given that Lucas had greater computer skills, Lexie
stepped aside, but she still took care of others.

In Lucas' impression, Lexie had a warm heart, mothering and loving them.

How could she die?

"What's going on?"

Lucas noticed that his hands were trembling.

Edison burst into tears and then directly made a video call to Lucas.

Seeing Edison crying, Lucas felt sad.

"Don't cry. What happened?"

As Lucas roared, Edison immediately stopped crying and said with a tremble, "Lexie's father was a
special forces soldier. He was shot abroad in a peacekeeping operation not long ago. He was caught
while protecting others. The terrorists took him hostage and threatened us to withdraw. Lexie got the
news and secretly went over there. She hacked into enemies' computers to confuse them. However,
she was discovered soon and shot to death. Lucas, they said that Lexie lost a lot of blood and her body
will be airlifted later. Boss asked us to go to the airport together to bring Lexie home. "

Edison cried as he said.

Lucas' eyes were teary.

Blood!

Recently, Lucas always dreamed about something red.



However, he never thought that his teammate would lose her life on the battlefield.

Tears slid down from his eyes.

"I'll be right there. Shut up and stop crying! We are proud of her. She's a hero and martyr! She's going
home. We can't welcome her home with tears."

Lucas' voice was hoarse and depressive.

Edison tried his best hold back the tears, but he really couldn't do that.

Lucas hung up the video chat and lay on the computer desk with his shoulders trembling.

He could never see his comrade who once fought together with him again. After she was buried in the
Martyrs' Cemetery with the national flag, there would never be a lively girl called Lexie.

Lucas' heart was extremely heavy.

At that moment, he finally knew the bloodiness of the war. Even in peaceful times, there were still many
people sacrificing themselves.

He remembered the fear he felt when he opened fire. But at this moment, he felt that there was nothing
to be afraid of.

That terrorist deserved to die!

Sam violated the law and threatened his parents. He was an unforgivable villain.

But Lucas was the warrior of the people.

Behind him stood countless unarmed civilians.



They couldn't shoot and had no right to do so. They were the most vulnerable group at war. But he was
a soldier.

It was his duty to protect people.

He just shot him. So what?

That was his duty!

Lucas suddenly seemed to have figured out a lot of things, and those heavy and oppressive feelings
were also turned into motivation for him to move forward.

Raising the head, he wiped away his tears and quickly changed into his clothes to go downstairs.

Samuel and Nicole had just packed their things and were about to call Lucas. Seeing Lucas dressed in
a military uniform, they were stunned for a moment. .

"Lucas, what are you doing?"

"I am going to the airport. Mommy, can you drive me there? Or Samuel? My teammate is back home.
As the team leader, I'm going to welcome her back."

His eyes still brimmed with tears, but were firm and stern.

Nicole felt her son was different. She couldn't tell the difference but Samuel could.

Lucas grew up.

He seemed to have learned a lot overnight, and became even more restrained.

"Your comrades died?"



After experiencing so much, Samuel understood the sadness hidden in Lucas' eyes.

Lucas almost couldn't hold tears back and nodded hurriedly.

"I'll take you there."

Samuel put down the work in his hand.

Nicole was a little worried.

"I'll go with you."

"I'll go too."

Joseph followed and said.

Hearing it, Samuel nodded and walked out of the Green's with them. Or he would be worried if he left
them at home.

Lucas didn't say anything along the way.

Nicole nudged Samuel worriedly and asked in a voice that only the two could hear, "Is Lucas showing
his second personality?"

"No, he's very normal."

Samuel glanced at Lucas and found that he was looking outside with sadness.

He sighed softly and said, "Lucas is very sad. I don't know how long it will last."

Nicole had never been in the army and she naturally did not understand how deep the friendship
between comrades could be. Seeing her son, she was somewhat worried.



"His dissociative identity disorder hasn't been cured yet. What was worse, his teammate died. I'm really
afraid that he can't go through the hard times."

"He can."

Samuel said calmly, "Perhaps after the incident, he could get better."

"What do you mean?"

Nicole was puzzled.

However, Samuel did not say anything else.

They drove to the airport.

Since Lexie was a martyr, the airport provided the Courtesy Channel.

The soldiers in uniforms stood in a line.

Lucas came here alone because he asked for temporary leave.

It was Nicole's first time seeing such a solemn occasion, and she was stunned.

After tiding up the clothes and hat, Lucas opened the car door and walked down.

Samuel hadn't finished the retirement formalities, so he still had a military rank. Today, he also put on
his military uniform and said to Nicole, "You two, wait for us in the car."

"Alright."

Nicole nodded.

Samuel held Lucas' hand and walked in.



At that moment, Joseph said with admiration, "Mommy, I suddenly feel that being a military doctor is
not bad. Wasn't Uncle Blair a military doctor?"

"No."

Nicole directly refused and even felt worried.

"With Lucas joining the army, I am always worried day and night. If you want to study medicine, Daddy
and Mommy won't stop you. But if you want to join the army, we will definitely say no. Daddy and I have
advised Lucas to go into business. So don't think about it anymore."

Nicole took advantage of this opportunity to deter Joseph.

Join the army?

Nicole really regretted that she agreed Lucas to join the army.

Joseph was the only son of Vincent. If anything bad happened to him, nobody could take on the
responsibility.

Nicole would rather like Joseph to be a mediocre person than a hero fighting on the battlefield.

Hearing Nicole's words, Joseph stuck out his tongue and said, "Mommy, don't worry. I'm just saying."

"I hope so."

Nicole was still a little worried.

Not long after that, the national anthem sounded inside. Eight soldiers carried stretchers and walked
out.



On the stretcher was an eighteen-year-old young girl with a very pale face and a national flag. Filled
with grief, the surrounding soldiers all took off their hats.

"This is..."

This was the first time Nicole realized the dignity and solemnity of death.

She saw her husband and son.

Samuel and Lucas were walking around the stretcher, with one on the left and the other on the right.

Lucas' eyes and nose were red. Some children behind him were sobbing.

She couldn't get the full sorrow like them. To some extent, she admired Lexie.

In the lifetime, if one were to die like this in the end, then it would be too well-deserved.

It was a pity that she was such a beautiful and young girl.

Nicole suddenly felt uncomfortable and sad.

With the military vehicle outside, all the soldiers carried Lexie to the Martyrs' Cemetery.

A middle-aged woman ran towards them. Seeing Lexie's body, she collapsed.

"My daughter! My good girl!"

The woman cried so hard that all people shed tears.

Nicole suddenly felt a little scared.

She was afraid that one day Lucas would be carried back like that.



At the thought of that moment, Nicole felt so heart-broken.

No!

That could not happen!

Absolutely not!

Nicole made up her mind to drag Lucas back from the army.

She did not have any big dream. She only hoped that her son would be safe and sound.

Someone might say she was selfish and not worthy to be a military family member. She didn't care.
Anyway, her son couldn't go to the front. It was too dangerous.

Seeing that Nicole's face was somewhat pale, Joseph reached out to hold Nicole's hand.

Both her hands and body were cold.

Joseph asked worriedly, "Mommy, are you alright?"

"I am fine."

Nicole managed a weak smile, but she saw Lexie's mother faint from crying.

Many soldiers' eyes turned red.

On the road to the Martyrs' Cemetery, only soldiers could attend the funeral procession while people
like Nicole were not allowed.

Samuel signaled her to bring Joseph back.

But Nicole didn't want to leave.



She asked Joseph to get in the car and drove behind the military vehicle, heading towards the Martyrs'
Cemetery.

Nicole's car suddenly jolted when she was about to arrive at the Martyrs' Cemetery. She almost hit the
windshield.

"Mommy, what's wrong?"

Joseph was a little worried.

Nicole waved her hand and said, "Maybe the car broke down. I'll get off and take a look."

After saying that, she got out of the car. But Joseph felt uneasy.
