He says that he has been separated from his unit due to the heavy bombardment. He runs towards the outskirts of town with all his might, but he is almost killed by the rubble. He thanks the regiment's sergeant red for saving his life. The sergeant says that if he hadn't blocked the tunnel, he would have been a hero. He adds that he needs to show the "horrors of war" to the people in order to convince them that the war was unnecessary. He asks the sergeant to stop nagging and give the reporter some water. He then asks why he left without permission. He explains that he can deal with the situation himself.
