Chapter 175: A Beautiful Life (Part II)

It has been a long time since he was captured by the Japanese and put in a labor camp.

Recently, they have started to take away the old people and children, and although I don't know where these people have been taken by the Japanese people, I always have a bad premonition in my heart.

In the past few days, when I went out to work, I also quietly took my son with me, and by letting him complete the task, I escaped the search of the Japanese soldiers again and again.

This morning, when I was working with my son, I suddenly found the door of the radio station office open, and I excitedly walked in with my son.

Quietly turned on the switch of the loudspeaker, and through the microphone wrapped in red cloth, he shouted happily: "Good morning, my princess! Do you remember your rose-red cheongsam, I am now full of you wearing it!"

When my son heard what I said, he jumped on the stool excitedly and shouted into the microphone, "...... Mom, it's me, Dad put me in the wheelbarrow...... He doesn't know how to push a cart...... We were number one! We scored a lot of points, and Dad said we would be able to drive the tank home soon!"

At this moment, several Japanese soldiers rushed over, and I just saw that my son had slipped away, but fortunately they didn't see us.

I know that my wife must have heard me and my son, and she should be able to feel a little more at ease.

This woman, whom I swore to protect, is now living in this hell with me, and every time I think about it, my heart is like a knife.

……

I was so lucky, I lived in the labor camp for about half a year, and one day when I was checking my body, I suddenly found that the doctor who insisted on our body was actually the doctor I knew when I was working at my uncle's restaurant.

He seemed to have a good impression of me and arranged for me to work as a food delivery in a labor camp restaurant.

At first, I thought that this doctor was so good that he would be willing to help me get my wife and son out of the labor camp.

But I soon found out that this doctor just wanted me to solve some riddles that he couldn't solve on his own.

I can't figure out why a person can be so ruthless. But I can't show the despair and disappointment in my heart, because the game between me and my son is not over yet, and I can't let my son find out that he has been living in a hell.

……

As the days went by, my son got more and more points, and he was very well-behaved and obedient, but I didn't know how long I could continue this game.

As time went by, my longing for my wife grew stronger and stronger.

One night, in the lounge of the labor camp cafeteria, I stumbled upon a vinyl record of the Peking Opera we had listened to the night I confessed to my wife.

I put the record on the gramophone and turned the loudspeaker out the window.

The beautiful Peking Opera singing voice seems to have quieted down the entire labor camp.

At that moment, it was as if my wife and I had met again, and we were back in that theater and back to the place where we fell in love.

……

The reality is cruel, and the comfortable days in the labor camp restaurant are finally over.

One night, in the backyard of the labor camp, I saw mountains of corpses, all of them Chinese who had been executed by Japanese soldiers, and the hatred and fear in my heart made me almost crazy, but I still had to pretend to be happy and playful in the face of my son.

A few days later, a well-informed fellow laborer told me that the Emperor of Wa had surrendered to the Star Banner Army.

The army of polar bears is about to fight in the northeast, and the Japanese people in the northeast are about to be wiped out.

It turned out that these Japanese people already knew that they were about to be destroyed, so they went crazy killing laborers, wanting to destroy everything that happened in the labor camp, to cover up the crimes they had committed.

But I know that the sins they have committed will be indestructible and will be recorded in history forever.

There was chaos in the labor camp, and everyone was trying to find a way to escape.

But I can't go with them, because I have to take my son and wife with me, they are more important than my life, and none of them can be left behind.

In one corner of the labor camp, I found a small tin cabinet.

I told my son to let him hide here, as long as he hid here and didn't make any noise, then he would get 1000 points and go home in the tank.

My son hid very seriously, and I hurriedly picked up a turban, disguised myself as a woman, and ran into the women's labor camp to rescue my wife.

……

I cautiously approached the area where the women were being held, and a truck full of women was about to leave the labor camp.

I ran to the back of the truck and shouted, "Is there a woman named Yan Limei here......?" Yan Limei, are you there!"

It's a pity that I didn't have my wife on the truck.

I don't want these poor women to be killed one by one by the Japanese soldiers, so I can only shout at the truck: "As soon as the car leaves the compound, you get out of the car and jump down!"

At this moment, a female Japanese officer in the courtyard saw me, and she whistled and rushed towards me.

I climbed up to the wall and disguised myself as a flag, but unfortunately the searchlight soon spotted me.

I had no choice but to climb down the wall.

A Japanese soldier with a submachine gun came up and raised his submachine gun as if he was going to shoot me.

Just as I was closing my eyes and waiting to die, a Japanese officer ran up and shouted in the Japanese language that I didn't understand.

I couldn't understand what he was saying, but from his gestures, I knew what fate I was about to face.

The Japanese soldiers, armed with their guns, escorted me to a corner alley in the courtyard.

I was so scared that I could barely stand with my feet trembling, and I knew that the day I had had foreseen so many times had finally arrived.

As I passed by the tin cabinet where my son was hiding, I knew it might be the last time we were going to see each other.

The fear in my heart in the face of imminent death is infinitely magnified, but in order to convince my son that it is a game, in order for him not to make any noise out of fear, and in order to leave a happy memory of his childhood.

I threw my arms up in the air, faced the tin cabinet, showed a big smile, and took a few steps forward with funny clown steps.

In a trance, I seemed to see my son in the tin cabinet, and I was amused, and I smiled with relief.

With a firm step, under the guns of the Japanese soldiers, he no longer trembled.

As I was about to turn the corner, I looked back at the safe tin cabinet and thought that from tomorrow onwards, my son would be able to get out of this place and take the 1,000-point game I played with him for the rest of his life.

I walked quietly into the alley, and soon a gunshot rang out behind me.

I slowly fell backwards, looked at the stars in the sky, thought about the happy life with my wife and son, and slowly closed my eyes.

……

As the night passed, the sun peeked out of the horizon and lit up the entire labor camp.

All the Japanese soldiers fled the place last night.

The last hundred or so prisoners left in the labor camp walked out of the camp exhausted.

They were so weak that they walked by the arm of each other......

At this moment, a small tin cabinet suddenly opened.

A cute little boy came out of it.

He walked a few steps through the empty labor camp and looked around in confusion. There was no one, and Dad didn't know where to go.

Dad promised that after he got 1000 points, he would be able to go home in the tank, but why didn't he see any trace of the tank?

Just as the boy was looking around, the silence of the labor camp was suddenly broken by the loud noise of the engine.

The sound was getting closer, louder and louder.

The little boy's eyes widened and he looked ahead. From the middle of the two workshops, suddenly a huge, low gray tank with a sickle and hammer painted on it.

The behemoth swirled up a puff of dust and rushed to his face, not only did not make the boy feel frightened, but he felt very excited.

The tank track stopped a few steps away from the boy......

…… The little boy looked at this behemoth happily, and he was so surprised that he thought of the game his father had played with him, and the innocent smile slowly crept up his cheeks.

The turret of the tank opened, and a young polar bear soldier was drilled out. He saw the boy in front of him and smiled softly.

After carefully inspecting the abandoned concentration camp, he looked at the little boy again, and said almost anything, but found that the boy did not understand what he was saying at all, and felt that he stepped out of the tank, picked up the little boy, and climbed the tank tower.

……

Vast fields with blooming flowers.

A large downhill road leads down the hill.

On a huge tank, the tankmen of the polar bear held a little boy and slowly drove down.

Suddenly, the little boy noticed a familiar voice, and he shouted, "Mommy, Mommy, I'm here!"

The tank stopped, the boy hurriedly climbed down, he ran quickly to an exhausted woman, and threw himself on it.

The woman took the boy in her arms and kissed him over and over again, and looked at him again and again.

The little boy shouted happily, "We have won! My father and I have won." ”

With tears in her eyes, the woman replied with a smile: "Yes, we have won!"

The little boy smiled happily: "A thousand points! We are the champions! We can go home in a tank...... We've won!"

Although she did not know the specific meaning of her son's words, the woman knew that it must be the most valuable inheritance that her husband had left to their children.

The woman hugged her son tightly, lying on the fresh grass, looking at the blue sky and white clouds in the distance, tears of happiness and sadness, as if they could never stop, flowed wantonly.
