Chapter 95 94

Italy surrendered, and the Japanese Royal Navy retreated little by little from the Pacific Ocean.The Japanese in Peking were ordered to make ten Chinese friends each. The Japanese from No. 3 Xiaoyangquan also went out to "make friends".They have never interacted with the Chinese people in their neighborhood, but now, even the expressions on their faces have to change according to the orders from above. The first of the four mothers refused to make friends with them.She can love anyone, but she cannot love the Japanese who beat her wife to death.Although it was not the Japanese on No. 3 who killed her wife, the Japanese were Japanese after all—she couldn't figure out who they were, and she couldn't bother to figure it out.

The mouth of this widow old lady is not like a widow's mouth, she dares to utter any dirty words.The Japanese couldn't understand the words she used, they just smiled at her silly.Cheng Changshun almost got into an argument with his grandmother.Widow Ma has always been unwilling to offend people, let alone the Japanese.She hated and was afraid of them. If they came to their door, why not give them a cup of tea?You can't drive people out.However, Changshun decided to close the door and not entertain such "friends". The people in the Little Sheepfold felt that killing people while making friends was simply inexplicable and disgusting.Everyone ignored the Japanese in unison.Only John Ding was the exception.

In fact, when he was working as an official in the British government, he looked down on the Japanese the most.Now that I have been unemployed for a long time at home, the hope of returning to the British government is getting slimmer and slimmer.It is better to change the court as soon as possible and find another foreign master.He is used to being a foreign slave. As soon as he became the head of the village, he used his means to get some coal.With coal, he can earn more or less every day.He lit a small coal stove in the yard to sell fire.Neighbors who don't have the money to start a fire by themselves can come to him to boil some tea and cook something to eat.He stared at his big clock and collected money by the hour.

The Japanese on number three don't understand why the Chinese are so unreasonable, unreasonable, and unfriendly.They walked all the way, and John Ding was the only one who went back and forth to worship, and he made them very happy.They fear that if they fail to make a single friend, they will be punished.They had planned to visit the old woman in number one and ask her what she knew about getting along with her neighbors.If the old lady refuses to tell the truth, she can be frightened, or else she will be accused of assassinating her.Fortunately, John Ding, the head of the village, was interested and willing to make friends with them.Then you have to hold him firmly and use the tricks that invaders are used to, like silkworms eating mulberry leaves, and grab the whole family in your hands.

Ding Yuehan, like all foreign slaves, wished that everyone was a foreign slave and he would be the head of the slaves.He bragged to the Japanese on the 3rd: "I am the head of the village, and I can order them to make friends with you." Walking out of the gate of the 3rd, Ding Yuehan's chest was protruding, and he looked so strong that he was almost with him. It's almost the same when the British government is on errand. He went to Inspector Bai, and simply gave Inspector Bai an order, asking him to help inform the neighbors and make friends with the Japanese. Inspector Bai is a practical and reasonable person.He has always been shrewd and capable, and he will adapt to the wind.However, he cannot be less patriotic and love his compatriots because of this.He disagreed with John Ding.

"Hmph," he said to John Ding, "the Japanese make friends with us? Don't weasels give chickens New Year's greetings?" John Ding was annoyed.He is the product of hundreds of years of national inferiority complex, and he grew up breathing air that smells of national humiliation.His highest ideal is to ask foreigners to hold their hands high, not to beat him, and let him be a foreign slave.In his mind, the Japanese can defeat the British, but China must not be able to defeat Japan.Even if the Japanese are not defeated, Britain and the United States will make a comeback and be his masters again.Only the Chinese can't stand up and be on an equal footing with the British and Americans.He didn't want to talk nonsense with Inspector Bai any more.

John Ding approached Ruixuan.Ruixuan has eaten foreign bread from the British Mansion, so he must be able to understand what he means. If it had been earlier, Ruixuan might have smiled and sent John Ding away with a few witty words.But now, he would never let go of any opportunity for publicity.He didn't care whether Ding Yuehan understood it or not, and whether he liked to listen to it or not, he told him in detail about the general trend of the world, and finally told Ding Yuehan: "Inspector Bai and the neighbors did the right thing, and you were the one who was wrong." Ding Yuehan thought over Ruixuan's words carefully, and suddenly realized. "Oh, now I see. England and America will win, and you and I can go back to England. That's good, very good."

Ruixuan really wanted to spit at him, but held back. "You are wrong again. We have no one to rely on, we are our own masters." John Ding said no more words, and left politely.He didn't understand what Rui Xuan meant. He went to No. 3 again and told the Japanese that Inspector Bai was not willing to cooperate.He didn't intend to play tricks on Inspector Bai secretly, but he had to let the Japanese know that he really wanted to help them win friends.If unfortunately the Japanese hated Inspector Bai, he would have nothing to do. The Japanese really hated Inspector Bai, and their hatred came faster than their friendship.

Instead of alarming their superiors with this trivial incident, they wrote a letter to Inspector Bai's superiors, accusing him of negligence.The boss is of course Chinese. Inspector Bai's boss was afraid of losing his job and starving to death.In order to keep his job, he didn't dare to protect Inspector Bai, so he withdrew his job. Inspector Bai's good days really came to an end.He has experience, has opinions, and is loved by his neighbors.However, he has no savings and no future.He never saved a single penny in his life.Hmph, if he was a little more slippery, tricked, and often played tricks, in such a chaotic era, let alone a prosperous career, he would not lose his job.

Well, since kindness is not rewarded, let's just kill and set fire!The Japanese murdered and set fire, and became the masters of Peiping!He was determined to kill John Ding.Whether killing is good or evil, who cares?The greatest lesson of war is to teach those who have never killed to kill. Think again—since they killed, why not kill the Japanese? He didn't mention to his family that he lost his errand, tucked the kitchen knife into his cotton-padded jacket, and walked out the door. He went to the lamb pen.There are Japanese living in every alley.However, without thinking, out of habit, he walked to the lamb pen.He is most familiar with this place.It must be the Japanese who live in No. 3 who are playing tricks behind the scenes.All right, - let's get them started.

His long face was pale, and his forehead was beaded with sweat; his back was erect, and his eyes looked straight ahead, but he could see nothing.He is no longer the white inspector, but a five-six-foot-tall life-stalking ghost with a gloomy wind!He no longer cares about the past, he doesn't care about the future, he doesn't care about cunning, and he doesn't care about being honest.All he wanted was to take a kitchen knife and chop deeply into his enemy's flesh, and then wipe his neck to finish the job.Walking in front of No. 3's screen wall, he stopped slumped, as if he had suddenly woken up.He has lived his entire life in peace, now, is he really going to kill someone?Bewildered, he stood there in a daze. Ruixuan came head-on. Seeing Ruixuan, Inspector Bai's murderous thoughts suddenly dissipated for more than half.He drooped his shoulders, his hands and feet trembling. "What's the matter, Inspector Bai?" Ruixuan asked. Inspector Bai reached out and touched the kitchen knife in his arms, as if he was afraid that Ruixuan would search him.Ruixuan understood that something must have happened.He took Inspector Bai's arm and said, "Come, come to my room and stay for a while." Inspector Bai didn't know what to do, and was dragged home by Ruixuan.As soon as he entered the gate, he put aside the idea of ​​murder and resumed his polite attitude: "Mr. Qi, I——I won't go in." He really didn't want to go into the house to talk to Ruixuan.He felt that killing someone, even a Japanese who caused him to lose his job, was a shameful thing to do. Ruixuan saw that Inspector Bai had something on his mind, "If you don't want to go inside, let's have a chat here." After saying that, he closed the courtyard door. Inspector Bai regretted that he had thought of killing someone, and also complained that he lacked courage and could not do it.He had no choice but to express his thoughts and let Ruixuan give him an idea.So, in a hurry, he told Ruixuan about the matter.After hearing what he said, Ruixuan was speechless for a long time.What happened to Inspector Bai was what happened to many, many people in Peiping; his words also expressed everyone's thoughts.The common people are unwilling to be enslaved by the Japanese, they want to resist.However, the peaceful and law-abiding thoughts formed over thousands of years have bound their hands and feet, making them unable to do what they want.Ruixuan understood Inspector Bai's feelings, and advised him not to kill the Japanese alone, but to work together with everyone and do some underground work.Can you mention Mr. Qian and the third child to Inspector Bai?He thought about it again and again, and felt that he should be more careful. At the beginning, he only talked about himself, and did not mention Mr. Qian and the third child. Ruixuan tried to speak slowly, and Inspector Bai listened carefully.He listened for a while, then interrupted Ruixuan: "Mr. Qi, what do you want to say - just say it quickly. I will not be a lackey and betray my friends. I have no way out, I just want to kill him Japanese, and wipe your neck. You can't sell out a friend for a few bucks. If you don't believe me, I swear." A stone fell from Ruixuan's heart, and he told him the truth. "Inspector Bai, we should be able to do more things than Mr. Qian. Mr. Qian can do it, why can't we do it? Let's do it! How about it? I know you have no income and no way out. That's easy. As long as I have your share, it's no problem. Maybe the third child can help you with some ideas. Let's work together today. If we get caught tomorrow, we can't be cowards. The ancients said that since ancient times, no one has died in life, so keep your loyal heart to reflect the history." "You are right. What should I do first?" Inspector Bai said without hesitation. "I haven't seen Mr. Qian and the third child for many days. I can't go to the small temple. I suspect Jin San. He suddenly came to see me that day. What does it mean? If Mr. Qian is arrested again Go, the Japanese will definitely leave Mingyue in the temple as a bait to catch the third child and others. It is inconvenient for me to go there, do you dare to go?" "Look, it's not," Inspector Bai smiled bitterly, and took out the kitchen knife from his lapel. "I wanted to fight at first, so why don't I dare?" "You don't need a kitchen knife," Ruixuan also smiled, "It's most suitable for you to go to the temple. You have eyesight, and you can tell the truth at a glance Should you go in? Monk Mingyue doesn’t know you, which is another good condition. You two don’t know each other, and when you meet, you won’t accidentally reveal some flaws for others to discover. Should you enter the temple? You go there and think about what to do. If you really enter the temple, don’t talk to the monks. You have to pretend to beg God to ask for a lottery, and you have to pretend to be the real thing. First kowtow in front of the Buddha, pray and pray, Say you lost your job, and ask about the future. When you roll out the lottery and go to the shrine to get the sign, remember to take the bottom one. It says what we need to know .With that post, the whereabouts of the third child will also be known. And...you get that post, don't send it to me directly. I will meet you at the Baita Temple meeting. I have to find Meet in a place with a lot of people, for example, those jugglers, places that sell estimated clothes, you have to find such a place." "I can do this." Inspector Bai cheered up. "I know you can do it. Also, you have to do a little business or something, even if it's selling peanuts. That way, John Ding won't doubt you. You have to go to his place often Go, chat with him, and compliment him on his Christian spirit. In a word, you have to coax him a bit, don't let him doubt you, and report." "Okay, Mr. Qi, I'm alive again, even if I have to die in two days, and I am also grateful for your kindness." Inspector Bai hid his knife, stretched out his hand to open the street gate, and prepared to go out. "If someone catches you, even if you are smashed to pieces, you can't hurt others." Ruixuan warned him again in a low voice. Inspector Bai nodded, and then opened the street door.He took the kitchen knife home and walked up to the small temple. He approached the small temple with his head drooping, looking around from the corner of his eyes.The gate of the temple was open, and there was no one in the courtyard or the Buddhist hall.He walked to the side of the temple gate, wanting to buy shares of incense and hold it, as if asking God for a lottery. Suddenly I saw Jin Sanye squatting not far from the temple gate.He recognized Jin San's red nose and generous head.He coughed, and Jin San jumped up all of a sudden.Inspector Bai smiled smugly, and said, "You're doing well, Mr. Jin?" He was kind and not reckless at all. Only a person who has been a policeman for many years can do it so naturally. "What's the matter? Who are you?" Jin San was at a loss. "Don't remember me?" Inspector Bai acted like an old acquaintance. "My surname is Bai, and my home is not far from Xiaoyangpen." The word "Xiaoyangquan" is like stabbing a knife into Jin San's heart. Inspector Bai walked west, and Jin San unconsciously followed him. Jin San's nose was still red, but it wasn't shiny anymore; his shiny forehead had darkened and had deep lines.His eyelids were red, as if he hadn't slept in days.There was a thick layer of dust on the shoes, shoulders, and trousers, as if he had been standing on the street for several days. "Find a place to sit," Bai Inspector said.Jin San nodded his square head. "Huh?" As soon as he sat down, Jin San began to chatter, as if he had a lot of words in his heart and was waiting for the opportunity to come out.Even if a dog wags its tail at him, he will tell it what is on his mind. "My in-laws, my in-laws, have been arrested," he said without thinking. "Mr. Qian?" Inspector Bai said, remembering the time when Mr. Qian was arrested seven years ago. "How do you know?" "That's what they told me—they're Japanese. Well, what a crime I've done this time! In order to keep my property, so that my daughter and grandson could stutter, I made friends with the Japanese. What happened? , I just looked around at the gate of the temple, and they sneaked into the temple and kidnapped my in-laws. Then, they coaxed me and said, don’t worry, you can’t treat him badly. Hmph, seven years ago, the Japanese almost died His spine was broken. I am not a human being, and I have no face to go home to meet my grandson. I sent his grandfather to the tiger's mouth-what face do I have to meet that child?" Jin San said again and again, wanting to hold back The depression in my heart trembled out. "I have to find a way to rescue Mr. Qian." Inspector Bai said, hoping that Jin San could come up with some ideas. "Save him? Of course." Jin San took out a stack of banknotes from under his skirt. "I brought money, and I kept wandering around here, trying to redeem my in-laws. If the money is not enough, I can sell the house, I am willing to spend money. Money, the house is nothing! No matter how difficult it is, I have to see it Go to my in-laws and tell him I'm a bastard, I'm not human. I know, tell him, he'll understand, and he'll let me go. He's a learned man, reasonable. If they kill him, they can't Make it clear to him face to face, how can I meet him under the nine springs. I can't rest in the coffin. Help brother, help brother—have pity on me." "Of course I want to help." "How can I help?" Jin San was willing to give the money, but he had to know where the money was being used. "We need to find Mr. Qian's friends first, and then we can work together to find a way to save him." "Where can I find out?" "Go to that little temple." "Okay, I'll go," Jin San said, standing up. "Wait a minute," Inspector Bai also stood up and stopped Jin San. "I'll go, you stand and watch from a distance. In case I'm caught by them, you can send a letter to Ruixuan." "Okay," Jin San said with a little blood on his face.Although the matter of saving Mr. Qian has not yet come to fruition, he finally has hope.He gave Inspector Bai a few tickets. "Take it, if you refuse to accept it, I will be raised by a dog. You are working for my in-laws, and I can't let you pay for food and drink by yourself."
