The economy of the Japanese-occupied areas is recovering and many things have been liberalized, but food has always been a controlled product.
The Japanese army also lacked food on the Chinese battlefield. If Pan Youbo and his eldest son had not served the Japanese, their family would not have enough food.
Pan Youbo mainly delivers food, not rice or noodles. Who doesn’t want to eat rice every meal? If rice is cheap, it will definitely be the first choice staple food in many people’s homes.
Moreover, food is hard currency and will not depreciate. These days, if you have food in your hand, you will not panic. No one will miss it when encountering food, especially cheap food.
"Yes, a lot, five to six hundred pounds."
"How much does it cost per pound?"
Pan Youbo's wife's eyes suddenly lit up. Five or six hundred kilograms of rice was a lot.
Even if they buy it for themselves, it will be enough for their whole family to eat for a long time.
"Our rice is cheap, only 12 cents per catty."
The female team member hurriedly replied, and Pan Youbo's wife suddenly became a little excited. 12 cents is really not expensive. At present, the rice you can buy at the grain store basically costs 181 pounds.
Two years ago, rice cost just over 6 cents per pound. Now it has risen to 18 cents, a threefold increase.
Even if you have money, rice at this price is not easy to buy.
"Can I take a look first?" Pan Youbo's wife asked anxiously.
"Can."
The female team member agreed immediately and took a small bag from the cart for her to look at.
There are several kilograms of rice in the pocket, not old rice, but new rice, the quality is very good.
“Is all your rice like this?”
"Absolutely. We country people are honest and will never lie to others."
"Okay, I want all your rice. Where is it?"
Pan Youbo's wife said anxiously, "I have made a lot of money this time. If I buy such rice for 12 cents, I will not eat it myself, but I will resell it and others will definitely grab it for 18 cents."
One pound earns six points, and one hundred pounds earns six yuan.
As long as I sell a hundred pounds, I will make a profit from the shoe soles, rattles and clothes I bought today, and there will be some extra.
The deal was a good deal. She was so lucky today, meeting a country woman who didn't know anything.
"I can't pull that much. My brother and the others are carrying them. They are outside. I will call them."
The female team member chuckled, turned around and immediately saw the van blocked at the entrance of the alley: "Hey, who blocked the road? Sister, help me watch, and I'll ask them to move away."
The female team member ran over and ran back after a while.
"They said the car was broken down here and couldn't be moved. There was a crack there. My brother and the others could pass the rice bag over, but I couldn't get it by myself. Sister, can you help me get it?"
"no problem."
Pan Youbo's wife didn't think much at all, and immediately called her daughter and daughter-in-law to help. When they arrived, two bags of rice had been stuffed over.
Pan Youbo's wife immediately opened it and looked at it carefully.
Even though she is a woman, she is not stupid. She is afraid that if someone showed her good rice just now, she will give him old rice or even moldy rice when she sells it, so she checks it very carefully.
"Come here, you guys, there are candied haws on a stick here."
The female team member allowed her to inspect them, and after stuffing in a few more bags of rice, she waved to the two children.
She had the candied haws on her hand that she had just received. The children could not hold back and ran over together.
"Yes, it's all good rice. Let's move it together."
Pan Youbo's wife didn't pay attention and said happily, this is the door of her house, how could she think so much.
Besides, there are five to six hundred kilograms of rice, and there are four of them, all women, so it will take a lot of time to move it.
This car was so broken that it blocked the road and no one could get in.
One hundred kilograms of rice can earn a net profit of six yuan, and six hundred kilograms can earn more than thirty yuan. Pan Youbo's wife is very motivated and wants to show off when her man comes back.
Pan Youbo's wife, daughter and daughter-in-law, as well as the female team members, carried a bag of rice to their home.
"Do it."
When they entered the courtyard, Liang Yu gave the order decisively.
The door of the van opened, and the two children were carried into the car without making any sound. The two children were holding candied haws in their mouths. The nine team members ran out and ambush at the door of Pan Youbo's house.
Pan Youbo and his wife had just come out. Three of them dealt with each other. One of them covered his mouth, and the other two lifted them up and left.
The three of them were already taken to the car before they knew what was going on.
"I'll take people to clean up the scene."
The female team member could speak quickly, and Liang Yu nodded and ordered someone to notify the person monitoring Pan Youbo's youngest son to take action immediately.
These five people were caught, but that didn't mean they were safe.
They drove all the way to the public concession. The public concession was the closest and safer there. He had already prepared a safe house and would put people in when it arrived.
That safe house has a tunnel, and the people are hidden underground first.
The female team members directed the people to quickly clean the battlefield, and the rice they carried in was moved out again. These rice may become clues and cannot be left here.
Liang Yu works as meticulously as a loach and will not make this kind of mistake.
Their mission is to arrest people, and what happens after they are arrested has nothing to do with them.
"Succeeded, caught them all? Great, send a report to the headquarters immediately. We have successfully completed the mission."
Wang Yuemin had been waiting, and Liang Yu did not disappoint him. The task was completed neatly.
The arrest of Pan Youbo's younger son went even more smoothly. He lost a lot of money, and Liang Yu's people lent him ten yuan. After the loss, he followed him in the car and was taken directly to the concession, and the family was reunited. .
Wuhan, Military Intelligence Division.
Virgo kept waiting. Secretary Qi brought the latest telegram. He immediately asked Secretary Qi to send a message to Yuan Yida, asking him to take the following actions.
Wang Yuemin didn't know why he was arresting people, but Virgo knew it clearly.
He supports arresting Pan Youbo's family members and forcing him to cooperate. This is what he should do.
A woman's benevolence will not accomplish anything, but a woman who accomplishes great things will not stick to trivial matters. In order to succeed, she will do anything even if it is too much.
"Yida, the Military Intelligence Department has succeeded."
Teacher Peng received the telegram and reported immediately. Time is very important now and we must race against time. No time can be wasted.
"Is Pan Youbo's family okay?"
Yuan Yida asked, while Teacher Peng shook his head: "It wasn't mentioned in the message, but you asked to ensure the safety of his family before so that Pan Youbo could cooperate. I believe they won't be in trouble."
"It's best if there is no embarrassment."
Yuan Yida sighed slightly. He had no choice but to do it. If Pan Youbo's family was harmed because of this, it would be his fault.
"Let's go see Pan Youbo."
Yuan Yida said softly, he had already put on a disguise, and now he looked at least ten years older than before, and his appearance had also changed somewhat.
His disguise skills are not as good as Chu Lingyun's or Ke Gong's, but with the deliberate concealment and the fact that he can wear glasses, fake beard and other items to help, ordinary people will not be able to recognize him.
Pan Youbo runs a small business, mainly selling vegetables.
His biggest customer is the Hongkou Warehouse. No matter how others criticize the Japanese, the Japanese have never defaulted on money when doing business with him.
His family's current life depends on the Japanese.
He is very satisfied with his current life, as long as he can live a good life. No matter who occupies this place, his only requirement is that the whole family be safe and have enough to eat.
Pan Youbo is fifty-one years old and was born in the former dynasty. He lived a normal life when he was young. Fortunately, his parents had a living and made him literate. Otherwise, he would not have the chance to become a comprador for the Japanese.
It’s not like no one has ever told him great truths, saying that the Japanese are ambitious and want to invade China. He understands these truths, but what’s the use?
There are so many people who don’t have enough to eat. Can’t these people see that?
Although the Japanese did a lot of bad things, they didn't do anything to him. Instead, his family relied on the Japanese to support him. He didn't have any resentment against the Japanese. Anyone who said these things in front of him was driven away by him. .
He doesn't want to listen, let alone do it.
"Dabao, Erbao, I'm back."
Pan Youbo opened the door and shouted happily that his greatest hope was these two grandchildren.
His daughter-in-law was very proud of him and gave birth to two fat grandsons, which made him extremely happy.
It's a pity that the younger son is disobedient. Marry him a wife next year and find him a job. It's up to him how he can live in the future.
Pan Youbo soon discovered something was wrong. The usually bustling home was now silent.
"Dabao..."
Before Pan Youbo finished speaking, a man suddenly walked out from behind the courtyard door with a pistol in his hand and the muzzle of the gun pointed at him.
"You, who are you."
His family was targeted by kidnappers, this was what he was thinking at this time.
"I am Chinese."
Yuan Yida lowered his voice and spoke softly. Pan Youbo looked at him blankly, not understanding what he meant.
"Your family is safe now. Whether it will be safe in the future depends on your cooperation."
These are the people in Pan Youbo's family. His eldest son is a translator. He usually spends time with Japanese people and goes home one day a week.
His eldest son will not be back today.
"Good man, if you want money, I will give it to you. I will give it all to you. Please let my family go."
Pan Youbo suddenly begged. Teacher Peng also came over and nodded to Yuan Yida.
This signaled to him that the surroundings were safe.
"Don't say anything and come with me, otherwise you and your family will die."
A carriage came outside and stopped in front of Pan Youbo's house. Yuan Yida deliberately made a little noise, making people mistakenly think that Pan Youbo's family left in the carriage.
Yuan Yida didn't go too far. He rented a safe house nearby. It was very remote and there was no one around. Yuan Yida made arrangements here in advance and sealed the doors and windows to prevent the sound from leaking out.
At Pan Youbo's home, Yuan Yida did not dare to say too much to him, for fear that his shouting would alert the neighbors and be discovered to be abnormal.
Take it out, it's safer.
"Are you from the Fruit Party?"
When they arrived at the place, Pan Youbo was not so panicked. He was blocked on the road and had no chance to shout, but he did not dare to shout. The whole family must have fallen into the hands of these people.
Normally they would never be away from home like this.
"That's right."
Yuan Yida admitted generously, and Pan Youbo suddenly showed anger and said excitedly: "Is this how the Guo Party treats its own people? What have I done that you want to arrest my whole family?"
"You and your son are traitors by working for the Japanese. Is this enough?"
"We are not traitors. I have done things for the Japanese for more than 20 years. How come I am a traitor now? There are so many people working for the Americans, the French, and the British. Are they also traitors?"
Pan Youbo was very emotional. What he hated most was that others said he was a traitor.
"It's different. Do you know how many of our compatriots the Japanese have killed?"
"What does it have to do with me? If I don't do things for the Japanese, won't others do the same? I just want my whole family to live well. Is this wrong?"
Pan Youbo asked back, but Yuan Yida did not continue. He knew from the last test that the other party would not listen to persuasion.
He asked Teacher Peng to take out a dozen photos and put them in front of Pan Youbo.
Some of these photos were taken in Shanghai, as well as Hangzhou, Suzhou and Nanjing. They were all photos of Japanese atrocities.
After reading these photos, Pan Youbo fell silent.
It's not that he doesn't want to be a Chinese, but in this world, if he wants his family to live a good life, he can only rely on the Japanese.
"How can I let my family go?" After a while, Pan Youbo asked proactively.
“Did Nakamura Shinichi and his squadron’s food come from you?”
Yuan Yida asked, and Pan Youbo's eyes suddenly widened. He understood the other party's intention.
These people are heading for Nakamura.
"It's me, what do you want from me?"
"Blow up the warehouse they were guarding." Yuan Yida replied.
"This is impossible"
Pan Youbo blurted out that the guards at the Hongkou warehouse were tight, and he knew very well that it was impossible to do it.
"I beg you, please let me go. I'm just a food delivery person. Every time I deliver food, I just unload the food and leave. They never let me stay. I can't do it. I really can't do it. .”
Pan Youbo suddenly knelt down and kowtowed.
What he cares about most is his family. For his family, he can do things for the Japanese, and for his family, he is willing to kneel down.
Teacher Peng couldn't bear it and turned his head.
"You have no choice. If you do this well, I will send your whole family to a safe place, including your eldest son. Otherwise, they will only die."
Yuan Yida said cruelly.
Pan Youbo trembled all over and sat there blankly.
"I will help you make a plan to give you a chance to escape. When you come out, someone will pick you up and send you to a safe place, where you and your family can live well together without having to carry The name of a traitor."
Yuan Yida said slowly, while Pan Youbo stared at him fiercely.
"Don't worry, I will keep my word. Your whole family will be absolutely fine. I swear on my life."
In order to reassure him, Yuan Yida swore a poisonous oath, and Pan Youbo slowly calmed down.
He knew very well that if he obeyed, his whole family might survive. He could also pretend to agree and then report it.
But in that case, except for him and his eldest son, the whole family would have no hope of survival.
Especially his two grandsons, who were his lifeblood. He would rather die himself, but also wanted his children to live well.
"I hope what you said is true, otherwise I won't be able to forgive you even if I'm a ghost."
Pan Youbo said viciously that he had compromised. His family was his biggest weakness. Now that his family's life was in the hands of others, he had no choice.
"Don't worry, I swore an oath to protect you."
Yuan Yida smiled, as long as Pan Youbo agreed. He had no intention of harming Pan Youbo's family, and he would not give up any of them, including Pan Youbo.
"This is my plan. Take a good look at it. When things are done, you and your eldest son will go together."
Yuan Yida whispered, and Pan Youbo believed it a little when he heard that he still cared about his son.
If he really wanted them to die, he would not care about his son's life or death.
As long as things get done, they can burn bridges.
"Actually, I have a way to push the food delivery cart to the warehouse."
After Yuan Yida finished speaking, Pan Youbo suddenly said. Yuan Yida looked surprised and asked quickly: "What can I do?"
"It's hot now. A few days ago, one of their people said they wanted to eat watermelon. They took turns to have a small team of people in the warehouse. As long as I loaded the watermelon on the car, I could push the car to the warehouse. Even in the worst case, I could get there. At the warehouse entrance."
For the sake of his family, Pan Youbo decided to cooperate.
In fact, he is also bloody and dissatisfied with the Japanese style, but he is just an ordinary citizen and works for the Japanese. He can't change all this.
The photo just now really stimulated him a little.
Since he has to do it, he should do it well. No matter what the result is, at least he can get rid of the reputation of being a traitor.
He is not a traitor, he will never admit it.
"Let me think about it first."
Yuan Yida stood up and walked back and forth.
"Are their guns and shells separate?"
Yuan Yida asked. He had a lot of explosives, but it was difficult to blow up so many heavy artillery pieces. The best way was to detonate the cannonballs in the warehouse.
When these shells were detonated, all the heavy artillery would be destroyed.
"No, I have seen their artillery shells. They are very big. They are in a warehouse."
"That's good."
Yuan Yida breathed a sigh of relief. It would be much more convenient to be together. The key was to detonate the bomb without letting Pan Youbo be killed together.
His true identity is the Red Party, and Pan Youbo is not their comrade. He can sacrifice himself, but he will not force Pan Youbo to make the sacrifice.
"The watermelon is no problem. My explosives are hidden in the winter melon. I will make a delay fuse. If you can deliver the watermelon to their warehouse, pull the fuse immediately and come out."
"My lead can only be delayed for three minutes at most. Within three minutes, you must quickly get to the safe area. There will definitely be chaos after the explosion. If you take the opportunity to escape, I will send someone to pick you up."
Yuan Yida said quickly, and Pan Youbo felt relieved again.
The other party has thought so much about him, so he shouldn't want to harm him.
In this case, he and his family have great hope of survival.
"I know a place. Even if it explodes, nothing will happen if I hide there. I will definitely be there within three minutes. When the time comes, I will hide there first. When the chaos is over, I will escape."
There are several pools in the Hongkou warehouse, which are for fire protection. If he jumps into the pool, the explosion will not cause much harm to him.
Once the chaos is over, he will run out again, which will be safer.
"Okay, you draw a map and I'll complete the plan."
Yuan Yida took out a pen and paper and handed it to Pan Youbo. Pan Youbo often delivered food and was very familiar with it.
It's a pity that the cart he used to deliver food had to be inspected. Otherwise, he could sneak in with him and let him carry out the blasting, which would be safer.
Pan Youbo quickly drew a map, which was consistent with the information they had received before.
"The day after tomorrow is your time to deliver food. Before that, don't tell your son. If you trick him out before taking action, I will take him away by force. After you come out, I will send your family out of Shanghai immediately."
"As compensation, I will give you two thousand oceans so that you can live a worry-free life in the future."
This compensation was not paid by him, but by the Military Intelligence Office.
Not to mention two thousand oceans, even if it were doubled, Virgo would not blink an eye, he would definitely agree to pay the money.
"Okay, but before that, I want to confirm the safety of my family."
Pan Youbo is not stupid. He must ensure that his family is alive before he will do these things.
"Okay, I will let you see your family before taking action."
Yuan Yida agreed, allowing him to see his family, but he would not let them contact him, let alone talk to them.
This operation is very important, and Pan Youbo himself has to bear a lot of risks. As long as he can meet the conditions proposed by Pan Youbo, he will agree.
"That's good."
Pan Youbo breathed a sigh of relief. His family should be safe now. The next step is to see if he can blow up the Japanese warehouse.
Yuan Yida quickly let Pan Youbo go home, and he himself returned to Iwai Mansion.
However, he did not completely trust Pan Youbo and took the same precautions as he should.
Teacher Yun personally monitored Pan Youbo's home. There was no phone in his home. As long as he did not go out secretly, it meant that he had never thought of snitching.
If he sneaks out, Teacher Yun will personally catch him back.
The most dangerous thing is that during the day the next day, Pan Youbo will be monitored and his every move will be watched.
Fortunately, Pan Youbo did not disappoint him. Pan Youbo only went to his shop the next day without any unusual behavior.
On the third day, Pan Youbo got up early. His delivery time was in the morning. Before that, he had to see his family and at the same time trick his eldest son out.
"follow me."
The person who came to pick up Pan Youbo was a rickshaw driver who was trained by Yuan Yida. The rickshaw driver took him directly to the entrance of the concession.
A car came from a distance, the window rolled down, and a man and his child were in the back seat of the car. The man had a worried look on his face and was stunned for a moment when he saw Pan Youbo.
The car quickly drove into the concession, and the people in the car had no chance to speak.
"Did you see that?"
The coachman asked in a low voice, and Pan Youbo nodded slightly. It was indeed his son and grandson. They were indeed fine. That man did not lie to him.
"Walk."
The coachman pulled up again and sent Pan Youbo home.
Pan Youbo's cart is not small. He has to deliver food for more than 100 people, but a small cart cannot do it.
Various vegetables were placed on the cart, with more than thirty winter melons at the bottom and more than thirty watermelons on top, which took up half of the space.
Pan Youbo harnessed the mule and sighed suddenly.
This mule has been following him for many years. If he can escape this time, there is absolutely no chance of the mule escaping.
Fortunately, the man promised to give him two thousand yuan. With this money and the savings over the years, they could live a good life anonymously outside.
After tying up the car, Pan Youbo followed Yuan Yida's instructions and went to call his eldest son.
"Yude, your mother is sick. Go to Sanya Pharmacy immediately."
Sanya Pharmacy is the closest Chinese medicine clinic to them. There is an old Chinese medicine doctor there. Their medicines are not expensive. People nearby who are not feeling well often go there to see a doctor.
"You're sick, what's wrong?"
Pan Yude received a call from his father without any suspicion, but when he heard that his mother was ill, he asked anxiously.
"I don't know. I have to deliver food and I don't have time to go there. You should go and have a look if you have time."
"Okay, I'll take a leave and go right away."
Pan Yude was very filial and agreed immediately. He was a translator, not a soldier, but he needed to ask for leave from his boss if he wanted to leave.
If you can't find him when you need him, that would be a big mistake.
Although these Japanese people are usually smiling, if they disobey their orders, they will be beaten or killed. Pan Yude will never dare to leave before asking for leave.
It takes time for him to ask for leave, and it happens that Pan Youbo goes to the warehouse to detonate the bomb, which also takes a lot of time.
"Don't be nervous. As usual, don't show any flaws. Keep an eye on this thread. When the truck arrives at the warehouse, even if you can't get into the warehouse, you have to pull it open. After pulling it away, leave immediately. Remember, you only have three minutes.”
Yuan Yida gave him his final instructions. He could only complete the next task by himself.
"I know, you will come to pick me up, right?"
Pan Youbo nodded heavily and looked up at Yuan Yida.
"Don't worry, I will definitely come to pick you up, and you have to promise me that you will come out alive."
Yuan Yida smiled and patted his shoulder. His action gave Pan Youbo a great sense of security.
"Okay, I believe you. After today, no one will ever say that I am a traitor again."
"No, you are no longer a traitor from the day before yesterday."
Yuan Yida corrected him seriously, and Pan Youbo suddenly grinned, pulled the mule cart, and walked forward slowly.
Yuan Yida stared at his back and waited until he went away and disappeared without a trace before leaving.
"Pass."
As usual, Pan Youbo was inspected at the door. He skillfully took out his pass, while the sentry at the door checked the goods on his car.
They are all vegetables. Because the winter melon was just picked, there is nothing abnormal except for a little lump.
The watermelon is also fresh. This is what is delivered inside. The sentry at the door will not deduct any of it just because of greed.
"go in."
After the inspection, there were no problems, and the sentry let him go. Walking in the familiar warehouse, Pan Youbo suddenly felt a little nervous.
He doesn't know if he can complete his mission, or if his family will be safe in the end.
He could only pray that the whole family would be well and live happily together in the future.
"Captain Morino."
Arriving at the central warehouse, Pan Youbo met the squad leader Morino who was inspecting and immediately bent down.
Not only for Morino, he is like this for any Japanese. He has been used to it for more than 20 years.
But at this moment, he suddenly hated his behavior, and he remembered what Yuan Yida said to him before. From the day before yesterday, he was no longer a traitor, he was an upright Chinese.
"Did the watermelon arrive?"
Seeing the watermelons in the car, Morino walked over, picked up one and knocked on it.
"They are all fresh watermelons, please try them."
Pan Youbo picked up a knife and cut into a watermelon. The red flesh immediately exuded an alluring sweet taste. Morino opened his index finger wide and immediately took the watermelon, took out a piece and put it in his mouth.
"Not bad, very sweet."
Morino nodded while eating, and Pan Youbo smiled along with him: "Captain Morino, watermelon is the best to eat now, and I am pulling the cart. How about I take it to the warehouse for you? This way the people in the warehouse don't have to come out to move."
"Go ahead."
Morino waved his hand, ignored Pan Youbo and ate his own watermelon.
Leading the mule cart, Pan Youbo arrived at the warehouse door. At this time, the warehouse door was open, and squadron leader Nakamura Zhenyi was inspecting inside.
"Why are you here?"
The guard at the door immediately stepped forward to stop him. Pan Youbo bent down again: "I'm bringing you watermelons. Captain Morino agreed."
Pan Youbo pointed at Morye who was eating watermelon behind him. The guard looked at Captain Morye, then at Pan Youbo, and then nodded.
Pan Youbo led the mule cart into the warehouse.
His heart couldn't help but beat faster, and his palms were all sweaty. He had already grasped the lead with one hand, ready to pull at any time.
"Who let you in?"
An angry shout suddenly sounded. Squadron leader Nakamura Shinichi was inside. When he saw the carriage entering the warehouse, he asked sharply.
"Captain Nakamura, I'm here to deliver watermelons."
"go out."
Nakamura Shini stretched out his finger and pointed to the door.
Pan Youbo bent down, sweat slowly breaking out on his forehead.
"I'll let you out."
Nakamura Shinichi suddenly took out his pistol. He did not allow anyone to enter the warehouse, let alone any Chinese, even other Japanese.
He will punish the sentry properly later.
"Yes, I'll go out right away."
Pan Youbo gritted his teeth, suddenly pulled the lead, and whipped the mule.
There is only one door in the warehouse, and mules are beasts and can only run inward.
Even if they killed the mule, it would be difficult to carry the car and the mule's body out within three minutes.
The bomb is inside the winter melon, which is at the bottom, and there are many watermelons on top.
"idiot."
Nakamura Shinichi suddenly fired, and a ball of blood suddenly burst out from Pan Youbo's body, and he fell to the ground instantly.
"Quick, push the car out."
There was no smoke coming from the car. The delay lead set by Yuan Yida meant that the smoke was coming from behind instead of now.
There was a small team of people on duty in the warehouse. They hurried over and blocked the mule cart in a panic. Several people pulled the bolts of their guns and wanted to kill the mules.
"Don't shoot."
Nakamura Shinichi hurriedly stopped him. He used a pistol, but these people were holding rifles.
Rifle bullets are very powerful. There are not only heavy artillery, but also many configurations of shells.
If the bomb accidentally detonates, all of them will die.
"Drag, drag out."
Time passed slowly, and Pan Youbo suddenly opened his eyes. The power of Nanfang's pistol was limited, and the shot just now did not kill him.
When he saw several Japanese soldiers pulling a mule cart out, his jealousy slowly turned red.
Enduring the severe pain, he suddenly jumped up and jumped to the side of the mule. The mule cart belonged to him and he was the most familiar with the mule cart. With a pull, the mule immediately changed its direction and turned back into the warehouse.
Zhongcun did not expect that Pan Youbo came to life again and stopped them from taking the mule cart out.
Even a fool would know that there must be something wrong with the mule cart.
Nakamura raised his pistol, but hesitated before firing.
Just now, Pan Youbo had a gate behind him, so he didn't have to worry about anything. But now, Pan Youbo had a pile of shells behind him, and he didn't dare to shoot at will.
It’s a big chapter of 8,000 words, including the 22nd chapter added by the monthly pass. There are still two chapters of 8,000 words left today.
(End of chapter)
