Xu San's laboratory is located very close to the train station, and there is a railway from the backyard warehouse. If you walk along the railway, you can reach the freight station in ten minutes at most.
Xu San's plan was to transport Shen Chunliang away from this freight station. However, due to the shelling by the independent regiment, the train was now out of service. If he wanted to leave, he would have to confirm safety.
Xu San estimated that it would be at least three days later.
After checking the time, Xu San turned on the intercom and started calling Li Yunlong.
A few seconds later, Li Yunlong's slightly unkind voice came, "Withdraw!"
"Be safe on the road! If you encounter interrogation, leave it to the newsboy and stop talking."
Xu San specially warned him that he asked the newsboy to go this time because his Japanese was good, and although he looked like a child, he was an out-and-out adult and an experienced intelligence agent.
"I know this, but I just want to know when I will be reimbursed for the things I typed out! This time, my family fortune has been wiped out!" Li Yunlong complained on the intercom, with great resentment!
"Just tell me the number! I'll do it for you slowly! Or replace it with something else!"
Xu San is very open-minded. He has always been very relaxed about reimbursement. As long as it is not excessive, he will sign.
However, Li Yunlong's shameless voice came out from the walkie-talkie, "More than ninety rounds, if you sign up in full, it will be one hundred rounds."
"No! You fat outsider, you really dare to ask for it! Do you think I am a local tyrant and evil gentry, or a stupid rich man?"
After hearing this number, Xu San immediately quit and started arguing with Li Yunlong on the walkie-talkie.
"Then fifty! This is definitely not a false report!" Li Yunlong relaxed and reduced the number by half.
"Not even fifty, at most thirty! I have no way to get what you want! It's not that easy to get!"
"Forty!" Li Yunlong relaxed again. From his tone, it seemed that he had been greatly wronged.
"Thirty-five! That's all! Do you want love?"
"Okay!" Li Yunlong gritted his teeth and agreed. He fired a total of twenty-seven shells this time. If Xu San could get him thirty-five shells, he could still earn six more.
"How long will it take to get it?"
Xu San thought about his abilities and the timeline of the Hundred Regiment War, and then said, "A month at most!"
After the communication with Li Yunlong ended, Yun Conglong's voice came from the intercom again.
I learned from him that things were not going well on his side. A lot of money was stolen, and the streets were set on fire as planned.
But as soon as he burned, he was directly attracted by the Japanese.
Although they finally broke through, two soldiers were still sacrificed, and the fire in Xiyangshi Street still did not break out.
Since they are all equipped with walkie-talkies, the Flying Tigers have temporarily settled down under the arrangements of comrades from Taiyuan Station.
Next, we have to face the overwhelming interrogation of the Japanese.
The commotion is so intense that the Japanese will never let it go.
According to Xu San's estimation, in these days, the Japanese will turn over the entire Taiyuan and uproot the underground organizations of the Eighth Route Army.
Many civilians may be implicated, but this is their fate.
It is not Xu San's style to act forward and backward, and at the beginning of formulating the plan, Comrade Taoist Priest, as the leader of Taiyuan Station, did not object, which relieved Xu San's mental burden.
In the laboratory, Shen Chunliang changed her clothes again.
This time he put on a white coat and pretended to be Dong Jinbao's assistant, conducting boring and tedious experiments with him.
The other employees in the laboratory didn't pay much attention to the sudden appearance of an extra person, because there were often helpers from Nanako or Xu Sanla here.
The shelling outside stopped.
As a ruthless leader, he began to urge his employees to start working.
Although most researchers are unwilling to work and are a little frightened and worried about the situation outside, these people are still very reliable after entering work mode.
As the sun sets in the west, Taiyuan City has returned to its former peace.
The two dozen or so shells at noon really disrupted the city, but as an important city in enemy-occupied territory, these shells really had little effect.
After a brief riot, the Japanese used powerful force to restore the city to normalcy.
After getting the news, Xu San faced the sunset and returned to the office with Miyako and the others.
Standing in front of the broken courtyard wall, Miyako walked over gently and stared blankly for a long time before saying, "Is this war?"
Xu San walked to Miyako, held his shoulders, and said softly, "Yes! This is war! The most injured in the war are civilians! Our yard should not be within the range of the shelling, but Aren’t you still suffering from the python disaster?”
"しゅじん!" Miyako leaned towards Xu San, "Without you, maybe I would have died!"
Xu San looked at the damaged yard and said with a smile, "You will be fine without me. Look at our house, won't it be fine?"
Xu San turned around and looked in the direction of his main bedroom.
Except for the broken glass, there was no other damage.
"But..." Miyako choked up a little, and she felt very sad. Although he had only been in this yard for a few days, he had already regarded it as his own home, and would keep it clean and tidy every day.
And now these are all destroyed because of one cannonball!
"Damn the Eighth Route Army!" Miyako muttered, "しゅじん, will you write a report to expose their evil deeds?"
"Yes! I will write it myself this time!" Xu San said seriously, but he was sneering in his heart.
The evil deeds of the Japanese were much more serious than this shell. If I really had to write about it, I would probably not be able to finish it in a million words.
"We can't replace the windows today." Xu San jumped into the house along the broken white window. "We'll talk about it tomorrow. You first have to see if your valuables have been lost."
"Okay, しゅじん!" Miyako said and followed Xu San's example and climbed into the house.
Perhaps because of accident, when she climbed through the window, her finger got a small cut from the glass.
Bright red blood seeped out along her fingers, dripped on the ground, and turned into a bright red.
Xu San shook her hand, grabbed her hand, and said softly with a bit of annoyance, "Why are you so careless?"
There was concern in the words, and Miyako blushed.
The finger was still bleeding. After Xu San looked at it, he picked it up and put it in his mouth and sucked hard.
A tingling feeling came along her fingers, and Miyako's face turned even redder! (End of chapter)
