There were several heavy snowfalls in Ice City one after another, and the temperature dropped rapidly. At night, the temperature outside was more than 20 degrees below zero.
In this flash, it has been almost half a month since Zhou Sen came back.
He lives a fairly peaceful life these days. He goes to work at the police station during the day and goes home at night, where his wife heats the kang.
This weight has obviously increased a lot.
He had no choice but to get up early every morning and practice Kung Fu with Chang Bo.
After sweating, I took a hot shower, had a delicious breakfast cooked by Axiang, and then got in Wuen's car and drove to work.
He bought a second-hand car, which cost him more than 1,000 yuan, while a new car cost only more than 2,000 yuan. He has already ordered two Citroen cars through a foreign trade company. The new ones are expected to be available next year.
So, let’s get a second-hand car and drive it. Let’s learn a little bit about it first. When practicing with a new car, I feel a little distressed, but the old one is fine.
However, in the Police Department, people at his level are not qualified to own a private car. Therefore, every day when he goes to work, Zhou Sen makes Wu En see the newsstand more than 200 meters away from the Police Department, puts him down, and then he Walk to work by yourself.
Of course, he would buy a few newspapers and take them to the office.
Although his promotion order has not been issued, his level and salary have been raised. The police lieutenant does not have a separate office. He works in a large office with other people, but he can have an independent office.
The Secret Service Department is a large department with great power and a large number of people, and an office is naturally indispensable.
Because Zhou Sen was assigned to the inspection section by Saburo Shibuya, Section Chief Aoki did not look at the monk's face but also the Buddha's face, so he was assigned an office.
Of course, an independent office is quite tight, and it is difficult for others to give up the office, so we can only take out a room full of debris.
Stacked inside are a huge amount of various "so-called reactionary" materials and printed matter confiscated over the years.
It has long been piled up into a mountain, and it is covered with dust. It is obvious that no one has touched it for a long time.
The National Police Agency is not rich in manpower, and there are rumors that Shibuya Saburo is leaving Ice City. Zhou Sen, a little guy who has just been transferred to the Police Agency, is about to leave.
Even though Aoki is Shibuya's confidant, he has a rather cold attitude towards Zhou Sen. He doesn't know that he is born like this.
Anyway, it seemed to Zhou Sen that Aoki didn't like him very much.
In fact, sorting out old materials is a job he likes. In his opinion, these things will be evidence of the Japanese invaders' occupation of Northeast China, their brutal rule and suppression of the Northeast people. This is history.
If it were anyone else, they would probably think it was meaningless and just burn it as firewood without even looking at it.
Zhou Sen found a pair of gray work clothes, a thermos, and a tea cup, and stayed like this all day, even eating lunch in it.
Anna was in the big office, and she couldn't understand the meaning of Zhou Sen's actions. She just asked someone to come over, take away these useless things, and send them directly to the canteen to be used as firewood.
…
"He's still sorting out those useless materials?" Saburo Shibuya also heard about Zhou Sen's weird behavior and called Ono over to ask about the situation.
"It's been four or five days. I come here on time every day, make a cup of tea, and get a thermos to boil water. I get a meal from the cafeteria at noon and go back to eat, and then go home from get off work at 5:30 in the evening." Ono nodded.
"Didn't Aoki arrange anything for him?"
"Chief Aoki didn't make any specific arrangements. The main reason is that he is still during the 'investigation' period and is not allowed to actually participate in work, especially confidential work. This is the rule for people who have returned from lurking." Ono explained.
"Yes, I forgot about this. How is Kageyama-kun's investigation going?" Shibuya Saburo asked.
"It's still a work in progress."
"Go tell Kageyama that before I leave Ice City, I must complete the investigation of Zhou Sen and Anna." Shibuya Saburo ordered.
"yes."
These people all thought that when they returned to Xinjing this time, they would not be promoted, but would be demoted, or even marginalized. They were wrong!
…
These publications and printed materials may have long been of little value in the eyes of others, and they would be too hard to wipe one's buttocks in the toilet.
But in Zhou Sen's eyes, these are treasures. These things witness and record history.
As a former writer, collecting information is almost an obsession. The more information I collect and the more detailed it is, the more confident I will be in writing.
Moreover, I am a person who likes literature and writing, and I also like to collect some books and newspapers.
No one thought it was too strange that he behaved like this.
Zhou Sen enjoyed it, but as he handed over these newspapers, printed materials, and confiscated brochures, he became more and more angry, as if there was a stone pressing on his heart every day, and this stone became more and more angry. So heavy that the smile on his face became less and less.
He also saw some records about the anti-Japanese martyrs with familiar names. Although they were incomplete and only a few words, when he pieced them together, they showed that each one was flesh and blood, unyielding, and sacrificed under the cruel punishment of the Japanese invaders for the sake of the country and the nation. The image appeared before his eyes.
These people include young students, workers, small businessmen, resistance fighters, underground party comrades...
Some people may not be able to leave their names in future generations. Zhou Sen feels that he has an obligation to protect and preserve these materials as a witness to history and to give future generations a chance to remember and pay tribute.
He cannot take these materials out. They must either destroy them or keep them here and archive them.
Of course, there is another way, which is to take pictures and save them, which is much easier.
…
When he returned home that night, after dinner, Bai Yulan took him into the study and took out a bamboo ruler from the desk drawer.
"I bought a new piece of material, and I'm thinking about making a dress for you as the new year is approaching." Bai Yulan came over with a ruler to measure Zhou Sen's size.
"You make clothes for me?" Zhou Sen was surprised.
"Why, you don't believe that I can do tailoring work?" Bai Yulan rolled her eyes at him.
"No, you are busy every day, do you have time?" Zhou Sen asked with a smile.
"I can't do it during the day, but I can do it at night."
"The light is not good at night, and sewing is not good for your eyes. Otherwise, let's find a better tailor shop. Ouch, why are you pinching me..."
"Are you dissatisfied with the poor craftsmanship of my female workers?"
"No, Yu Lan, you said you have so many things to do during the day and you have to make clothes for me at night. It's been such a hard day. Don't I feel sorry for you?" Zhou Sen explained quickly.
"Really?" Bai Yulan looked at him with a smile.
"Of course, we have a lot to do tonight..."
"Screw you, you're being immoral again." Bai Yulan's cheeks turned red and she spat.
"Yu Lan, although we have agreed not to hold a wedding banquet and keep the wedding simple, I think there must be a ceremony." Zhou Sen said, "Let's pick an auspicious day, put on wedding clothes, and pay homage to the church. What do you think? ?”
Bai Yulan naturally had no problem. She was getting married for the second time. When she and Lao Ma got married, they walked through Fengguan Xiapei and formally paid their respects.
But Zhou Sen is getting married for the first time, and marriage is the most important event in life. It seems a little unfair to Zhou Sen to give a hasty ceremony like this.
Although not having a wedding banquet was Zhou Sen's own idea, not hers.
"Isn't this too simple?"
"As long as we recognize each other as that person, why should we care about these formalities? Besides, the environment we are in now is that there is no benefit in making things big." Zhou Sen said, "Now Saburo Shibuya is going to Xinjing to take up a post. , I have to keep a low profile."
"Has Saburo Shibuya been demoted?"
"Probably not. He hooked up with a big shot and was transferred away from Bingcheng just to accumulate strength. Sooner or later he will be promoted." Zhou Sen said, "His absence in Bingcheng means more advantages than disadvantages to me."
"As long as he doesn't fall, at least no one will dare to touch you. But once he is promoted and has greater power, you will also rise, right?" How could Bai Yulan, as smart as she is, not understand this.
"That's right, and under his protection, I can do some things that ordinary people can't do." Zhou Sen said, "This is called the power of a fox and a tiger."
"Isn't it true that dogs rely on human strength?"
"No, I'm a human, he's a dog!" Zhou Sen hugged Bai Yulan and walked toward the bedroom.
"Xiaosen, let me go, I can't do it today..." Bai Yulan struggled to say.
"Don't worry, I already knew that." Zhou Sen laughed, "You don't even know what time it is now. You don't feel well. Why don't you go to bed early?"
"Don't mess around..."
"I'm the kind of man who doesn't know how to care about women. Besides, it's very unlucky for men." Zhou Sen thought for a moment and then said, "But coming here this time shows our efforts next time." , try to get you pregnant as soon as possible."
"You are going to die. Do you even understand this?"
"Don't forget, I have a medical qualification certificate, and I am now a real doctor." Zhou Sen said.
"You're not a gynecologist?"
"I know more than a gynecologist..."
"Really? Tell me what else you know." Bai Yulan asked as she climbed up the pole.
"I know that if a woman wants to have a baby, she must give birth after that..." Zhou Sen whispered in Bai Yulan's ear.
"Ah..." Although Bai Yulan is no stranger to things between men and women, she really doesn't know much about giving birth to children. She only knows that if a man is with a woman, she may get pregnant, and then she will become pregnant after ten months. , can give birth to a new life.
"Of course, this is not absolute, but it is like this for most women. If a woman's menstruation is irregular or abnormal, it's hard to say. There are some special circumstances, which I won't talk about. , you don’t need to know so much." Zhou Sen said.
"What's the special situation? Why do you know more than us women? Just tell us..." Bai Yulan said coquettishly.
"You really want to know?"
"OK!"
"You keep telling others that I told you." Zhou Sen thought for a moment and first made a three-part agreement.
"Okay, I swear, I promise not to say these things to a third person besides me and you." Bai Yulan raised her hands and swore.
"Okay, let me tell you..."
"Where did you learn all this?"
"Did I read it in a book?"
"Which book should I look for later?"
"The books I saw in Khabarovsk were medical books in Russian. There were none in the Ice City..."
"Then you can teach me Russian?"
"You want to learn a foreign language!"
