Infinite Life: Trapped in a lifetime

In the following time, the Kellner branch resumed its daily work.

However, as the domestic situation in Kelna, which has been a hotspot of international tensions in recent times, has become increasingly tense,

The work of the Kellner branch has also become more frequent,

Whenever something happens in Kerner, we need to hurry up and send it back to the domestic headquarters.

Behind every piece of Kellner-related news published by the domestic headquarters on various platforms, the entire Kellner branch, including Mo Dao, is busy.

However, it is rare to be as close-up and thrilling as the previous explosion.

More than half a month passed in this busy and temporary calm.

…

"This time this place is armed, it really doesn't do anything anthropomorphic."

At noon, the Yin Yan interview team who went out to compile and report on the current situation in the capital of Kerna came back from outside.

As soon as the photographer put the camera down, he couldn't help but said angrily.

Yin Yan next to him also looked ugly, and the driver didn't say a word.

This appearance caused other people in the branch to look at the three of them sideways.

Mo Dao, who was writing a press release to be sent back to China, also raised his head.

"What's wrong?"

"I met refugees who fled from the southern province of Kerna and said that armed forces there were massacring villages again."

Yin Yan said with a bad expression,

"It is said that in some villages the entire village was killed, and the corpses were piled up on the roadside and stinked. However, on social media, they refused to admit it even to death."

Mo Dao was also a little silent when he heard the words.

In Kelna, the conflicts involving the opposition and government forces are not only conflicts of interests, but also racial and tribal conflicts.

This contradiction has continued from the colonial period to the present and cannot be reconciled.

In other words, some people do not want this contradiction to be reconciled, and even deliberately intensify it.

So this kind of thing often happens in the battles between opposition armed forces and government forces.

And if the opposition forces finally win this time, new local armed forces will emerge in a few years, and there is a high probability that they will carry out the same behavior against the tribes armed by the opposition forces this time.

Like an endless vicious cycle, peace never came to this land.

Because there are people who are not willing to let it be peaceful.

This involves the root cause of Kerner's protracted war - external interference.

It can be a very complicated thing to say,

It can also be said to be very simple,

When someone feels that it is not in his interest, there will be unrest here again.

But, just like that ancient poem,

When it prospers, the people suffer; when it dies, the people suffer.

"Are there any photos or videos leaked?"

After Mo Dao paused for a moment, he just asked.

"No. The places there are all occupied by the opposition armed forces. Only the occasional refugees who escaped from there talk about the miserable conditions there... Of course, there are also many Kerna people who feel that the opposition forces have done the right thing... Sigh."

Yin Yan shook his head and said, sighing at the end.

As a reporter who has worked in the Kellner bureau for so many years and has been exposed to a lot of first-hand domestic news in Kellner,

It is easy to see that what happened in Kerner was a complete tragedy.

Regardless of whether the opposition or the government forces feel happy, it is just a trap dug for them by someone behind the scenes.

"Where is that place?"

Mo Dao just asked again.

"The closest ones to us should be some villages on the edge of Lake Yasna. They are probably only 70 or 80 kilometers away from the capital of Kerna..."

As Yin Yan spoke, his voice gradually stopped.

"what you up to?"

Yin Yan turned his head, looked at Mo Dao and said,

"Do what journalists should do, get first-hand information and report what's going on there."

Mo Dao smiled and then said.

When Yin Yan heard this, he shook his head decisively.

"No, that's an area controlled by the rebels, and our branch has basically no contact with the rebels. What's more, they have been covering this kind of thing very tightly, and it is impossible to allow any media reporters to get close..."

As he spoke, Yin Yan looked at Mo Dao, his eyes gradually opening wider.

"You want to... rush in and report directly without contacting the rebels?"

Mo Dao didn't answer Yin Yan's question and just smiled.

After understanding Mo Dao's bold idea, Yin Yan quickly shook his head. Although Mo Dao was still sitting there, he couldn't help but stretched out his hand to pull Mo Dao.

"This is not possible. Although it is our job to report on the domestic situation in Kerner, there is no need to take such a big risk. Moreover, even if you want to go, the editor-in-chief cannot agree... Oh my God, what if you do something here? I don’t even know how the branch should explain this to your parents and relatives..."

Yin Yan said quickly.

"I have no parents or any relatives."

Mo Dao said something, but Qin Huaishi's face couldn't help flashing through his mind.

After a pause, Mo Dao stood up with a smile again.

"I'll go and apply to the editor-in-chief."

Mo Dao spoke up before speaking.

Since you plan to be a reporter in this life, let’s fulfill your responsibilities as a reporter.

After listening to Mo Dao's words, Yin Yan let go of his hand, looked at Mo Dao with some confusion, and said no more.

…

"...Mo Dao, why do you have to do this? Whether or not this report is included is actually not that important to the branch office or the head office."

"Even if you get first-hand information, you will just mention it in the international news section."

The editor-in-chief said some things that were not very politically correct, but he really spoke from the bottom of his heart about Mo Dao.

When Mo Dao heard this, he just smiled and said,

"Editor-in-Chief, there is no reason. As a reporter, isn't it my bounden duty to pursue the hidden truth?"

"..."

When the editor heard this, his expression was a little complicated for a moment. He opened his mouth several times but hesitated.

"That's what I say, but the danger here...huh..."

As if knowing that such words would not convince Mo Dao, the editor took another deep breath and said,

His expression gradually became firmer, as if he had made a decision.

"Then I'll go with you. I'm willing to risk my life to accompany you..."

When it comes to people who don't have passion, when it comes to taking action, they will have more worries.

I don’t know how much the editor thought about it in this brief moment, and finally said this.

However, as soon as the editor-in-chief said this, Mo Dao quickly refused.

"Editor-in-Chief, no more. This is just something I want to do, and I am willing to pay any price for what I want to do. But I am not qualified to let others take this risk for me."

Mo Dao really didn't care about his own life now. Restarting it would be a waste of time at most.

But asking others to sacrifice for themselves, Mo Dao should try his best to avoid this happening.

"I am already very sorry that you are willing to lend me a car and waste a car. If you follow me to take risks again, I really can't accept it."

After listening to Mo Dao's words, the editor looked at Mo Dao and remained silent for a while.

Finally sighed,

"Well, young people are motivated and full of passion... I am also getting older. When I was young, in order to chase the news, I also..."

After saying a few words, the editor hesitated, and finally just patted Mo Dao on the shoulder.

"Okay, you go. If something happens, I will take responsibility for you... do it well, he. Although we who work in news should not have too much subjective tendencies, but they kill ordinary people, It doesn’t make sense anywhere!”

"I'll make a call for you. You can at least get to the edge of the government's control area smoothly. If you go further, you'll have to rely on yourself. I'll wait for your triumphant return at the branch here!"

"Thank you editor-in-chief."
