After the earthquake, some children became orphans. Coincidentally, in the disaster relief military unit, there were couples with kind hearts who, due to specific reasons, didn't have children of their own. They selected children they felt connected to and adopted them.

The disaster relief troops came from all directions. When it was time for them to leave, the locals expressed their heartfelt gratitude. As the rescue work wrapped up, the soldiers' tasks were temporarily over. The rest, ultimately, wasn't within their responsibility and would be handled by other specialized personnel.
