C32 32nd Chapter

The day the embassy flagpole was erected, my first ring broke and I swam in Gido.

On this day, I was exceptionally excited. After the flagpole was erected and the courtyard was tidied up, it was already evening. As usual, I brought Blondie to the seaside for a walk. He said as usual. Actually, as soon as I walked out of the embassy, I had a completely different feeling.

Not far from the embassy door, I couldn't help but stop. I turned around to look at the embassy. The embassy has changed, the original logo is two trees, One was a big brown tree and the other was a coconut tree. Now, Between the two trees, there was a flagpole, with a bright flag fluttering on it. The flagpole and the flag became the latest symbol of the embassy.

"Blondie, look, that flag is so beautiful" I said to Blondie. "With King Brown and coconut trees as a foil, it's like green leaves with red flowers. It's even more beautiful, right?"

Blondie had already walked very far away. When he heard me call him, he ran back.

"Blondie, you see, it's pretty, right? That flagpole, that flag, right?" I said it to Blondie again.

Blondie looked in the direction of the embassy that I was pointing at. He turned around to look at me, then turned back to look at the beach.

"You don't understand, do you?! I designed it myself. You know that, don't you? " I reached out and touched the blonde's head.

The blonde whimpered a few times and looked towards the beach.

"Alright, you're going to the beach. You only know how to go to the beach. Let's go!"

Not too far away, I stopped again. I turned around to look at the embassy. Now that I'm a bit further away from the embassy, the King's Brown, coconut trees and flagpole are about to gather together. Compared to the two trees, The flagpole was a head taller, and the flag was fluttering on top of the tree. From afar, it looked like two balls of green surrounded a small patch of red.

"Yellow hair, yellow hair, you know, from now on when you see that patch of red, it will be our embassy. "

Blondie walked a long distance away again. When he heard me call him, he ran back.

"Blondie, you know right? Now I don't have to envy others anymore. Their embassy, the courtyards all have flagpoles and flags floating around. Now we also have one. "

Blondie looks in the direction of the embassy that I'm pointing at, turns around to look at me, then turns around to look at the beach.

"You definitely don't understand. You don't know what this flag means to me," I said.

I said it to the blondie, and I also said it to myself. I came to Yoshido this time. Ambassador Juhua gave me two tasks, one is to build the building. The other one he didn't say. Before today, I said that I have completed the construction of the building. When I said it, I was actually lacking confidence in my heart. Now I understand. . . The reason why I lack confidence is because the flagpole hasn't been erected yet. The flag pole hasn't been erected yet. The flag hasn't been raised yet, how can it be said that the embassy has already been built? It's different now. I can say it now. I imagine that when I see Ju Hua again, I can say to him:

"Ambassador, the building you gave me has been completed"

Thinking so, I feel a bit moist in my eyes. I wiped the corners of my eyes with my hands. After wiping, I looked down at the blondie. The blondie had already run away. The blondie doesn't understand my matters. He has his own thoughts.

I followed the blondie towards the sea. My attention has now shifted to the sea, and I suddenly have a strong desire and impulse to go into the sea.

The sea has always been infinitely attractive to me. When I was young, the sea was my dream. I've seen too many mountains. When I'm bored, I want to see the sea. He thought of the beauty of the sea and the beauty of it. People are probably like this. They don't care about what they have, and they even dislike it. What they cared about was often what they didn't get. But after I graduate from university and work, I finally have the chance to see the sea for the first time. Remember that time when I was a messenger, I went to a country along the Atlantic coast for a business trip. The embassy wasn't far from the sea. After I've handed over the letter, I'll immediately ask someone to take me to the sea. I had all kinds of fantasies about the sea. When I first faced the sea, I was still shocked. Compared to the size and majesty of the mountain, Hai Haohan is vast. If one were to say that the mountain is worthy of respect, The sea makes me look far into the distance.

Since then, I have formed an inextricable bond with the seas. I often shuttled back and forth between the various oceans, and was even sent to Japan to stay permanently. I am also unfamiliar with the ocean to be familiar with it. I have suffered in the sea and enjoyed endless pleasures. Now let me compare the mountain to the sea. I will say that mountains have their pleasures and worries, and seas have their pleasures and worries. The greatest joy of the seas is undoubtedly swimming in them. I learned how to swim in my hometown's small river ditches. I didn't think that. . . When I was a child, the little skill I learned gave me the greatest joy in the sea. The first time I swam in the sea, it seemed like I was swimming in Kieby. It was in the Kieby. It was for his colleagues. We have a rule in the embassy that swimming in the sea must be accompanied by two people. There was a colleague who couldn't find anyone else at the moment. So he came to find me. I happily agreed. After the first time I went into the sea, I was unable to accept anything. As long as I'm free, I'll ask one or two colleagues every few days. Going into the sea to swim. The base was located on the equator, and the temperature was high during the day. After working for a day, he was covered in sweat and smelly. After work, After soaking in the sea for a while, he immediately felt cool. The tiredness of the day also disappeared without a trace.

When I reached Jido, I was the only one in the embassy. I didn't dare to swim in the sea. I made a rule for myself, as long as I'm the only one in the embassy, I won't swim in the sea. Think about it, if something happens to me. . . The embassy will be empty. So no matter what, I have to ensure my own safety. It was fine when I was on George Island, but. . . I have always adhered to this rule. Other than being afraid of accidents, there were two other reasons. One is because I am busy, and things keep coming one after another. He didn't have time at all. The other was that there was no good beach near George Island, so they left the temptation. After moving to the new building, The situation was different. The new embassy was located by the sea, in the courtyard. He could see the sea. When cleaning up the courtyard, I can't help but stop what I'm doing. Looking at the sea in the distance, I can't help but feel an itch in my heart. Every evening, I can only take the opportunity to walk my dog to the beach.

There is a beautiful beach by the beach. Walking on a small path, passing through a coconut grove, It was the beach. The sand was silver in color, shining with fine light in the afterglow of the setting sun. The light blue seawater kept washing over, waves after waves surging over. Wave after wave retreated. I walked barefooted on the beach, with blondie running beside me. Our footprints were left on the soft beach. The waves rushed up and washed away my and the blondie's footprints. The beach returned to its original state.

I've been in Yoshido for three months. I've wanted to make an exception several times. Jump into the sea and swim. Every time, reason always beats impulse without exception. If I don't go into the sea, I'll let blondie go into the sea. Blondie was in high spirits at the beginning. He ran and jumped around excitedly in the water, sometimes swimming a few times. After a few times. . . The blondie lost interest. I chased Blondie into the sea, and he went down to play with the water symbolically. While playing, he glanced at me with his eyes, while I wasn't paying attention. He quickly ran up to the shore. When he got ashore, the blondie shook his body with all his might. He wanted to shake off the seawater on his fur. The blonde shook with all his might, as if he wanted to shake off all the yellow hair on his body. I guess the yellow-haired guy doesn't like seawater, so the seawater will stick his dog fur to it. When he uses his tongue to lick his fur, he feels that something is wrong. The taste isn't right either. Every time the yellow hair comes up from the sea, I have to wash it off. The yellow hair is dipped in seawater. It's not easy to wash it either. After a few times, the yellow hair didn't want to go into the sea. I won't chase him down anymore.

Today, I came to the beach. I don't know why, but. . . No matter how hard I tried, my desire and impulse were like a wave that was stirred up by a strong wind. I couldn't stop it.

"If only I could soak in the sea for a while," I said to Blondie. "Today, for the flag pole, I've been busy all day, and I'm sweating a lot. If I went into the sea to soak for a while now, it would definitely be very comfortable. "

The blondie stopped in his tracks, looked at me, and wagged his tail.

"What do you mean by wagging your tail? You don't want me to swim? That's right, I've said it before. As long as I'm the only one in the embassy, I won't go into the sea. But, You know, there won't be anyone in a short period of time. Even Ambassador Juhua doesn't know when the country will send someone over. That is to say, I have to wait for a long time, you know?"

The blondie looked at me, still wagging his tail.

"You still won't let me go, right? Only you know how to stick to your principles, right? But principles also have flexibility, right? You said that since I have erected the flagpole, there must be a reward, right?"

The blondie glanced at the sea, then turned back to look at me. This time, he didn't wag his tail.

"That's right, blondie. You can't wag your tail anymore. If you don't wag your tail, then you'll agree. Our blondie is still reasonable. How about this, I'll go to the sea and dip for a while, then I'll come up. You come with me too. "

I got excited and pulled off my T-shirt. I threw it on the beach and jumped into the sea. The blondie seemed to have forgotten that he didn't like the sea. He also followed me into the sea. On this day, there is no wind on the sea. The waves were very calm, and the seawater wasn't cold. There were some places that were still a bit warm because they had been exposed to the sun for a day. I soaked my body into the seawater. Right now, my entire body is surrounded by seawater from top to bottom. It is as if I am being embraced by infinite tenderness and warmth. The waves gently surge, as if someone is gently caressing my skin. This was a feeling that he had not felt for a long time.

I also bury my head in the sea.
