Working as a police officer in Mexico

"Lucy no longer sells oranges; she has become a teacher—a primary school teacher at Victor Elementary School."

Rommel thanked them, sat in the SUV next to him while the radio broadcasted, "The Northern Air Force launched a pre-dawn airstrike on the Chiapas rebels' camp, annihilating over 600 people, severely striking down the rebels' arrogance!"

"The Northern Governorship again warns to lay down your weapons for leniency!"

Crack~

Rommel lit a cigarette for himself, while the driving guard smacked his lips, "Under Victor's name, they're slaughtering away, heh, those Indigenous people probably won't see good days ahead."

"If you ask me, we should just push through, take down Chihuahua State first, link up several states, and then move south together. In two years, no, within one year, we could liberate the whole of Mexico," said the guard, his eyes gleaming.

Rommel glanced at him, "And after liberation?"

"General Victor ascends to the throne!"

Look, even the lower ranks know about Victor's ambition; it's practically common knowledge.

It is said that even the rats on the roadside are having meetings, ready to prepare a big gift for Victor once he is crowned.

Rommel furrowed his brow and remained silent.

To become an emperor?

Is that really a good thing?

This world doesn't need such a system.

However, whatever Victor does, he will follow. After all, wasn't he the one promoted by him?

Having a conscience is part of being human.

Just as the SUV arrived at the school's gates, the phone in the back seat rang; the guard's brows furrowed, "Looks like your courtship journey is over, boss."

Rommel grabbed the phone, answered the call, and quickly responded, "Yes, I'm coming back now!"

After hanging up, he looked at the flowers in his hand, hesitated, and then got out of the car. The security guard, curious about the unfamiliar military vehicle, stepped out only to see a lieutenant colonel approaching him with the flowers.

????

I don't like men!

The security guard stiffened his expression and looked at the other person, who was quite handsome.

"Please, give these flowers and the letter to Teacher Lucy Molin. Thank you."

After Rommel spoke, he got back into the vehicle without dragging his feet; the security guard was stunned for a moment, watching the SUV drive away, muttering, "Lucy Molin?"

"Have a look at this, I'm going to deliver something," he said to his colleague before dashing into the school. Of course, he knew this Lucy teacher, a very lovely new teacher who had a smile for everyone.

He rushed to the office, saw no one around, and then went to the classroom.

The teacher was in the middle of class when the guard knocked on the door. Everyone turned to look, making him blush, "Teacher Lucy, someone asked me to give this to you at the door, oh, and he's a military officer."

Lucy Molin's eyes brightened, "Where is he?"

"He's gone."

Her heart sank, but she thanked the guard anyway.

"Teacher, is this from your boyfriend?" a male student asked loudly.

Lucy Molin blushed, "No... it's not, just a friend."

"Can we see the letter?"

"Yes, it must be a love letter!"

"Teacher, teacher, let us see!"

Lucy Molin hesitated when a female student stood up, took the letter, and said with a smile, "Teacher, let me read it."

She got along very well with her students and wasn't pretentious, so many weren't afraid of her. After a moment's thought, she nodded in agreement. Experience more content on My Virtual Library Empire

Seeing the teacher's approval, the girl opened the letter, stood on a table, coughed to signal everyone to quiet down.

"My dear Lucy..."

At the beginning, the students "Wow"ed in unison, all eyes on Lucy Molin.

"By the time you read this letter, I will have joined the war in defense of our nation's and people's dignity, crawling in the trenches of Sinaloa. I'm truly fortunate to be here by these dilapidated streets, thinking of you. Time is like the crystal-clear running water, flowing into the distance, never to return..."

"As a soldier, I do not know when I will die, but even if I fall tomorrow, I love you."

"If I am sacrificed, please do not grieve for me. On the day we triumph, go to the back mountain, stand on its summit, and if the wind blows towards you, that will be me coming to see you."

This sudden depth made everyone's hearts tighten.

"In each day and night on the battlefield, your affectionate gaze responds to my once pale youth. I will reciprocate with the most heartfelt smile and tenderness that no storm can strip away. After the war, I will build a tiny castle on this loamy land, where we can nestle by the fire and listen to the voice of the cuckoo—Erwin Rommel, September 29, 1990."

The classroom fell silent.

Lucy Molin covered her mouth, unable to hold back her tears.

Before the students' eyes, an image of a soldier appeared, gazing at his country, then at his loved one behind him before resolutely heading into battle.

The sky above...

Seemed to have become his reflection!

Hey!

Victor!
