The Japanese officer then asked, "Are you familiar with these people?" He pointed at Lu Shuwen and the other temporary workers.
"The younger one's name is Li Jiaqun." Li Tou replied: "I'm familiar with most of these people, but Taijun, you also know that this is a place where temporary workers wait for work at the dock. Many people can't work for a long time, so they find other people." There are new people joining every day. So I’m really not familiar with some of them.”
The Japanese officer nodded seriously and said, "Register all these people." After that, he ignored them. Several of his Japanese soldiers immediately began to take action. Some took out pens and papers, while others maintained order and asked them to line up and take out their IDs.
Lu Shuwen was in the queue, right behind the temporary worker named Qi. There are still a few people ahead, and they will have to wait a while. So Lu Shuwen immediately began to think in his mind whether he would like to register normally and just hide his identity as he is now. Or are you making up a lie?
But soon, Lu Shuwen decided to tell the truth, because he was hiding his identity now. If he makes up a lie again and the other party really verifies it afterwards, he may also have problems concealing his identity. And my current identity can withstand at least level two investigation.
Lu Shuwen judged that there were quite a lot of temporary workers on the dock now. Even if the Japanese investigate, they can't investigate everyone so deeply. In addition, I do always do odd jobs or something, so it is very normal for me to appear on the dock and find a temporary job. But once he lies, if he is caught, the suspicion will be even more serious. Instead, they will be completely targeted by the Japanese.
After making up his mind, Lu Shuwen lined up normally. The temporary worker named Qi at the front turned around and said, "Brother, have you never been through this kind of situation? I have been registered again and again. We can just register as they tell us."
"Ah." Lu Shuwen said: "I... do know two words, but if you ask me to write something, I really may not be able to write it. I don't know if they will let someone ghostwrite it. Brother, can you help me? Can I write it?"
"Hey." The temporary worker surnamed Qi said: "At least you still know two characters. Apart from my name, I don't even know half of the characters in Douda. You also asked me to Help you write it? But you don’t have to worry, didn’t you see, they write it themselves. All you need to do is ask them and say it. It’s pretty simple. We are not anti-…anti-Japanese terrorists. Don’t worry blindly.”
"That's good, that's good." Lu Shuwen said, "I won't worry anymore..."
Just as he was talking about this, he heard the Japanese officer yell loudly and said in a somewhat stilted Chinese: "Don't talk to each other, stay in line!"
Lu Shuwen immediately showed an honest look, nodded quickly, and stood obediently. The same goes for Lao Qi in front. He quickly smiled at the Japanese officer, turned back, and lined up facing forward.
In fact, in Lu Shuwen's eyes, this Japs officer might not be an ordinary Japs officer. But he was engaged in a special industry, or he came here today and had something official to do, so this Japs put on the military uniform today.
Because the Japanese officer asked them not to whisper to each other, firstly, it may be out of instinct to maintain order, thereby increasing the deterrence. But there is a second possibility, that is, this Japs is using special thinking, subconsciously or consciously, to take precautions. That is: if there are any underground agents or the like in the team, prevent them from having urgent discussions with each other or colluding in confessions.
It only took about three minutes, and we had already arrived at Lao Qi's place. Lu Shuwen was still honest in the back, but in reality he was listening to how the Japanese asked Lao Qi questions to register. The purpose is to have an idea in mind, what if some questions are difficult to answer? Then you can prepare early. Although this early preparation only takes a little time, it is better to have a little time than to be suddenly attacked by the opponent.
However, Lu Shuwen didn't find anything too weird in the questions asked by the two Japs who were responsible for recording the interviews. They were just names and ages. How long have you been looking for work on the pier? Who do you know on the dock? Who is in charge of the terminal management office? do you know? Do you live locally? Do you have any relatives or friends? Something like these.
These questions seem to be relatively routine, but they are quite detailed. If you are really being naughty or someone who is not very well prepared, and you are asked this question, some of them are really hard to answer. Even if I answer the question now, nothing will happen, but what if there is a troubleshooting later? Something might happen at some point. For example, when did you come? Do you have any relatives or friends locally? This kind of question may seem simple, but if you are not careful when answering it, something may happen.
After Lao Qi completed the registration, he was placed in the open space on the other side together with the people who had registered before. Lu Shuwen also started to register "honestly", but it was his first time at the dock and he didn't have many relatives or friends. It still attracted the attention of the registrants, so several more questions than Lao Qi were obviously added.
Who are your neighbors? Have you ever worked there? What was the name of the person who gave you money at that time? What's your landlord's name? How much does it cost per month?
Lu Shuwen still answered one by one according to his concealed identity. did you see it? This is the benefit of being prepared to cover up your identity. If you think that I don’t have any relatives or friends, or that you can’t check my answer at all, for example, my hometown suffered a disaster, everyone in the town left, and I no longer have any relatives in this world.
This answer seems like the other party really cannot verify it. But if something cannot be verified, there is something wrong with you in the eyes of professionals. Therefore, sometimes you feel that the things you make up cannot be verified and seem to be impeccable. But sorry, in the eyes of professionals, your problem is huge.
Lu Shuwen answered honestly: "I delivered newspapers at the newspaper office, and it was the local evening newspaper. Uh... I don't know the exact name of the wage earner, but they all call him Lao Ji. There are many neighbors who are not familiar with each other, but A few of them also know what they are called..."
The answers here are also knowledgeable. First of all, you can’t answer questions fluently. If you answer questions fluently, what do you call your neighbors? How old are your children?
