Before Shire could stop her, the young girl waved to the people around and cheered, "Here he is, Shire is by my side, Shire is here!"
People turned their eyes to Shire. Many of them had taken refuge in Antwerp and had seen Shire back then, so they quickly recognized him:
"It's really him, Shire is there!"
"He's grown up, looks much more mature."
"God, he's actually fighting with the troops, such a respectable hero!"
...
Shire had no choice but to stand up and wave to the people.
This triggered another round of cheers. People swarmed towards the armored vehicle, eager to present flowers and shake hands with Shire:
"You saved us, General, once again."
"I deeply apologize for what happened in Antwerp, it wasn't our intention!"
"Thank you for saving Belgium again!"
...
Shire could only smile and respond one by one.
But in fact, he felt a chill on his scalp. At this moment, if a German sniper was lurking nearby or in a building, his life as a general would come to an end!
