To what extent war will change people is still unknown to Song Qi.
He closed his eyes and thought of the people he loved deeply, the people he had killed, himself, and his hometown, all of which were not enough to describe what war was like.
He thought he was in this era, so he couldn't understand it. One day everything he has experienced will become history, a black-and-white photo and a short sentence in a book. People at that time could judge good and evil, right and wrong.
And he and Chris, as well as everyone in this era, are small components that will be gradually erased and omitted by time. Except for themselves, no one cares about the birth, old age, sickness, death, encounters and partings of the ants under the Guangsha.
Later, he wrote about many people who had appeared in his life in the book, but he did not write about Chris.
He didn't know how to write, or whether he should write. He would rather have the memory of Chris rot in the grave with him. Perhaps being forgotten is a more touching ending to the story.
