Xu San packed up, put on his military uniform, and prepared to go to the Japanese prison to inquire.
Tian Yu, who was cracking melon seeds on the side, suddenly asked: "Are you going out again?"
"Go and take a look at the Japanese prisoner's cell." Xu San responded simply and then began to check the equipment.
Tian Yu had been staying at Xu San's house for several days and was feeling bored. Seeing that Xu San was going out again today, he became curious and asked, "Can you take me there?"
Xu San turned his head and rolled his eyes at her: "You? Aren't you worried that you won't be able to come back after you go? Be more cautious, the Japanese are still searching for you all over the city! Don't kill more people because of your pitiful curiosity. !" Xu San's tone was very serious. This was the first time he spoke to Tian Yu in such a serious tone.
There was no other reason than that he was in a bad mood.
After he came out of Ma Cuilan's house yesterday, he went to the Japanese prison.
The result was very unsatisfactory.
No matter what he said, not even the paid devils could get in and take a look.
I had no choice but to meet up with some squad leaders for drinks at night, trying to get something out of their mouths.
As a result, at the wine table, he learned another clue.
Although the Japanese have not arrested anyone in Pingan County in the past two days, they have arrested people in the villages and towns around Pingan County. The people arrested are mainly young and strong men, and several puppet army leaders estimate that there are about two people. Three hundred.
Why did the Japanese arrest so many people? They are still young and strong.
Suddenly, a bad thought came to mind.
Mass grave!
This evidence of crime written in textbooks is bloody evidence of the aggressor's crime.
I didn’t feel it when I was in school because it was just a black and white photo.
Now, put yourself in their shoes.
Xu San felt that this bloody fact was happening, and he seemed to be still in this whirlpool.
Very anxious, very angry!
And so damn angry.
Two to three hundred, and that's on the surface. Including others, Xu San estimated that the number of people captured by the Japanese this time should be about a thousand.
Fuck, Xu San felt an unprecedented sense of powerlessness when he thought that more than a thousand people would narrowly escape death and enter the dark mine.
helpless.
Lonely.
confused.
All kinds of negative emotions filled Xu San's brain, making him unable to control his emotions.
Xu San's words made Tian Yu instantly feel as if her heart had been pinched and she felt a little uncomfortable.
After a moment, he said softly: "The devil didn't see my face either. We both Brother Li and I had our faces covered at that time?"
"Hey~"
Xu San didn't want to explain, sighed softly, slammed the door and left.
The room became empty again, and a hint of loneliness appeared on Tian Yu's face.
He threw the melon seeds on the table and said to himself: "Leave me alone at home again."
Loneliness also applies to her.
She was the eldest daughter of a merchant family and joined the revolution because of her ideals.
In the county brigade, everyone doted on her and pampered her, but at the same time they all distanced themselves from her.
The barriers created by class are indelible, and people of different origins rarely resonate.
Although she and the people in the county brigade share the same ideals and goals, their values are indeed different.
So she is lonely, but she doesn't admit it.
Although her time with Xu San was very short this time, she felt that Xu San was special. Although he was mysterious, he was indeed the kind of person who could open his heart and speak freely.
She sat on the stool and stared at the melon seeds on the table in a daze for a while, then she lay down on the kang and covered herself with a quilt.
Ping'an City is still under martial law, and Xu San, wearing the skin of a puppet soldier, can move about as he pleases.
He went to the Japanese prison again hoping to try his luck.
The guards in the prison work three shifts 24 hours a day, which means they are also watchdogs. They can encounter three in a day, deducting the inconvenient time, and there are two more. If one of them fails, replace it with another.
Perhaps it was the concept of later generations. Xu San thought that he ran into trouble last time because he didn't give enough money, so this time he even brought the small yellow croaker.
The Japanese prison in Ping'an County was set up to the east of the headquarters. It was newly built after the Japanese occupied Pin'an County. It was the size of a football field and had a four-meter-high courtyard wall with barbed wire stretched over it and at the four corners of the wall. A tower with two Japanese soldiers stationed there for a long time, equipped with a Taisho 11 light machine gun (commonly known as the crooked handle). The muzzle of the gun can be aimed at both the outside and inside.
The sky is gray, the ground is also gray, and the Japanese prison is also gray. From a distance, it looks eerie and exudes the smell of death.
After taking a few deep breaths, adjusting his mentality and facial expression, Xu San jogged to the prison gate.
Today is the day when the new team leader takes office. The team leader generously treats the whole team to a meal. As the person with the least presence in the team, Nakajima Kenjiro is forced to stand guard in place of his colleagues.
Thinking of the taste of sake, Nakajima couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and warned himself to learn to refuse next time.
The days of standing guard are boring. There is nothing else to do but stare.
In the past, people would occasionally pass by, but these days, even people are rarely seen.
The desolate streets and the cold air made people sleepy. Nakajima held the gun and leaned against the wall, his vision becoming blurry.
In his blurry vision, it seemed like a puppet soldier was running over.
Nakajima looked down upon these puppet soldiers very much. They had no backbone at all. As long as they were reprimanded loudly, they would be scared out of their wits.
Shaking his head, taking a military stance, and straightening his rifle, Nakajima shouted at the puppet soldiers in front of him: "Stop!"
The puppet soldier was not frightened by his own scolding, but continued to move forward.
Nakajima seemed to see the puppet soldier who rushed past take something out of his arms?
Is it a pistol?
Could it be that he is a Eighth Route Army man in disguise?
Nakajima began to panic. He wanted to pull the trigger, but found that the safety was not turned on.
He shot!
Am I going to die?
This was the thought that came to Nakajima's mind when Xu San took out the money.
The pocket is as heavy as an ocean.
Nakajima woke up. He had just taken a nap and seemed to have had a dream.
The dream seemed to be real because the left pocket was heavy.
"Taijun, it's just a small thing, you can buy a bag of tea to drink."
It's Japanese.
The puppet soldiers in front of me actually spoke Japanese, and they even had an Osaka accent.
"Who are you! What are you doing here?" Nakajima yelled. He was very angry now because he was scared by a puppet soldier just now, which made him feel ashamed.
"I have a friend who was captured by the imperial army. I want to see him. Please make it easier for me."
"There are no friends of yours inside, please leave immediately, or I will shoot." Nakajima said as he opened the safety and pulled the gun bolt.
Xu San was very depressed, feeling that this Japs was a bit abnormal, and his reaction to him seemed a bit excessive.
In order to avoid misfiring his gun, Xu San took two steps back and said, "Taijun, I am from the Imperial Alliance Army. I am not a threat. Please be careful and don't misfire."
Xu San's tone was very low, but there was still a flattering smile on his face.
Xu San's behavior made Nakajima relax.
If you think about it for a moment, you will understand what happened.
I was too bored while standing guard, so I couldn't help but take a nap. As a result, the puppet soldier in front of me came over to visit the prison, but in my confusion, I mistakenly thought that he was trying to rob the prison.
Nakajima couldn't help but blush after thinking about this link.
However, he has always been cowardly and humble, and he did not act violently and hurt others like other devils. Instead, he was thinking about what to do with Xu San's money.
After thinking for a long time, he decided to tell the truth, "If you want to go in, the captain must agree. I can't make the decision."
Upon hearing this, Xu San felt that there was a way.
This Japs is easier to talk to than the one yesterday. Although he seems a little impulsive, today he told himself a breakthrough.
He slowly took a step forward and said, "Taijun, who is your captain? Can you introduce him to me?"
Nakajima picked up the gun and gestured at Xu San: "Our new captain's name is Mishima Kazuhachi. He is very busy and has no time to see you! You, please leave quickly, or I will really shoot."
