Fan Ji also left, and the courtyard where the ninjas were located became empty, as if no one had lived there for a long time.
Hua Zejin came to the headquarters expressionlessly, looking for Yamamoto, but found that the place was empty. Except for tables and chairs, everything else had been taken away. Looking around, she found that even the curtains used to block the light One is missing.
It seemed that they had all been evacuated. She wanted to wait, but she heard the sound of horns outside the house.
She knew that this was urging her to leave quickly.
I looked at the time and saw that it was almost twelve o'clock. The sun was rising high and shining through the window without curtains, which was a bit dazzling.
After walking out of the headquarters, she found a jeep parked not far away. It was the one he was riding in when he arrived. The person honking the horn was Yoshino Rice, not Xu San, which made her a little disappointed.
He walked to the side of the jeep, opened the rear door, and got in.
This action is the same as before, except that Xu San is missing from the car.
There was a faint smell in the car, which made Hua Zejin raise her eyebrows slightly, and then rolled up the window.
"Where's Colonel Yamamoto?" Hua Zejin asked.
"I don't know!" Yoshino's brief answer showed that he did not want to reveal Yamamoto's whereabouts.
"What about Conan?"
"have no idea!"
Yoshino still did not answer directly, but Hua Zejin already knew that Xu San was currently performing a very confidential mission.
"Then him. Yoshino-kun, Conan him."
"If nothing else happens, you will be able to see him tomorrow morning." Yoshino said calmly, then stepped on the accelerator and started the jeep.
The wind blew away the stench in the carriage and brought in a hint of the fragrance of vegetation.
After smelling the fragrance, Hua Zejin's brows relaxed a lot. She leaned against the backrest and slowly closed her eyes.
.
The Japanese have withdrawn their troops!
Except for the initial fierce shelling that killed two soldiers, no soldiers of the 388th Regiment were killed in action. Although many soldiers were injured, they were basically minor injuries and had little impact on combat effectiveness.
The Japanese attacked as if they were teasing you. Not only the common people did not understand, but even the 388th Regiment defending the city did not understand what was going on. But if you don't understand, just understand. Anyway, the city was not lost.
They made up a story about how they had killed eight hundred enemies in a night of fierce fighting, and then sent people to spread it around the town, which would appease the people.
Although the number eight hundred was very false, the people chose to believe it because they needed a victory to numb their ashes.
Listening to the noisy sounds outside, Yan Xiaoqing decided to go out to inquire about the news, but was rejected by Lin Dong. After thinking about it, it was safer to let Shen Fang, the eldest sister, go out.
There is a mole in the team. Among the four girls, Shen Fang, the eldest sister, is the least likely to do so compared to the other girls, so it is relatively safest for her to go out to inquire for information.
After checking the weapons, Shen Fang dressed up, put on Cao Ying's "wedding dress" and walked out of the door.
Like every small town, Xiangshan Town is just a little bigger.
But today the town seems to have changed. It is no longer lifeless, but
Vibrant?
Almost all the shops on the street have their doors open, whether they are selling snacks or fabrics, they all have advertising slogans celebrating the victory and offering a 30% discount.
Not only the shops, but also the kiln sisters who were in the leather and meat business used the slogan that the city defense troops were free.
Shen Fang has been in Xiangshan Town for two years and is very familiar with this large town, but this is the first time she has seen a scene like today.
Many people went out of their homes to celebrate the victory of this battle in their own way!
Some beat gongs, some played drums, and some set off firecrackers.
Seeing such a scene, Shen Fang couldn't help but grab a little boy who was running, "Ximi, what happened today? Why is it so lively?"
The little boy looked up and saw that it was his aunt in a dress, so he took a step back.
"Don't be afraid! Auntie is not a foreigner, she is from Luliang." Shen Fang knelt down and changed her accent, which lowered the child's guard.
The little boy blinked and said, "The 388th Regiment won a great victory and killed eight hundred Japs in one night! The Japs were so frightened that they peed their butts and fled. I heard that they are the fastest running now." The Japanese have all fled to Niangziguan."
The corners of Shen Fang's mouth twitched and she thought to herself, kill eight hundred Japs?
This bragging is too outrageous. Although the 388th Regiment of the Garrison Army is not weak, they can still do it when they say they can kill 17 or 18 Japs, but this 800 is obviously deceiving the common people. What happened to the other one who ran to Niangziguan? It's at least 300 kilometers from Niangziguan to here. Is the fastest way for a Japanese to travel by plane?
After spending two cents to buy some glutinous rice cakes for the little boy, the little boy talked about a lot of what he saw and heard, including the smoke from last night and some of the strange things that happened last night. Weird things.
Regardless of whether it was useful or not, Shen Fang carefully wrote down these things.
Just as the little boy was getting excited, he suddenly pinched his nose and said, "It stinks!"
Shen Fang also smelled the stink, so he raised his eyebrows and turned to look at the source of the stink.
is a beggar.
Unkempt and disheveled, the stench that the little boy disliked came from him.
When the beggar saw Shen Fang, he immediately opened his mouth and giggled. He stretched out the broken bowl in front of the little boy and said, "Young master, do your best and you will be rewarded. Good people will be rewarded."
As the beggar spoke, he sang the song "Lotus Blossoms Fall," and the dog-beating stick hit the ground "pah, pah". He stared straight at the glutinous rice cake in the little boy's hand, and his saliva flowed down the corner of his mouth as if he couldn't control it. down.
Ordinary people in this era have insufficient meals, let alone snacks. The little boy is reluctant to eat the glutinous rice cakes in his hands, let alone give them to beggars.
Seeing the beggar's appearance, the little boy quickly stuffed the glutinous rice cake in his hand into his arms, and then said loudly, "No!" After saying that, he turned around and ran away, as if the glutinous rice cake in his hand would be eaten by the beggar if he ran too slowly. It's like being snatched away.
The little boy ran away. Shen Fang glanced at the beggar with disgust and thought that this beggar is annoying enough. He even cares about children's things. You deserve to be hungry!
It was now noon, and the beggar's body was exposed to the sun, and the smell was really indescribable.
Feeling uncomfortable from the smell, Shen Fang wanted to turn away and go to the second safe house to have a look, but the beggar stopped him first and said, "Miss, please do me a favor! Give me a bite to eat."
Although she didn't like the beggar, Shen Fang still took out two cents and put them in the beggar's broken bowl. "Look, you are not that weak. What can you do to support yourself? If you really can't find anything here, When you have something to do, you can go to Yushugou, which is fifty miles away." (End of this chapter)
