Chapter 1: Karma Arises Like Birth, Act 2 (1)

Although there is not much difference in the weather between spring and autumn, in the autumn days, wearing a set of early spring clothes is obviously very different. Yuwei was helpless, so she had to take out a blue calico cheongsam from Lin Jingru's wardrobe and put it on. According to the class schedule that Lin Jingru had pasted on the wall before, she sorted out the textbooks and hurried to the classroom with Christina.

Clinker, the first foreign lesson in the past and the future, made her ugly in public.

"Mia, you've disappointed me! Stand up for me! Professor Conrad, who was the vice dean of the School of Medicine at the time, turned purple with anger, frowned with white eyebrows, and slapped his palm on the podium, pointing directly at Yuwei's face, "You explain it to me well: if the outing made you forget to submit a research report for a while, why haven't other people forgotten it completely?" Is it because I've always been too amiable that I let you ignore it!? ”

In the eyes of the people around her, who were either sneering or sympathetic, Yuwei blushed and stood up with her head very reluctantly. In the huge classroom, her slender figure looked so abrupt.

It turned out that Lin Jingru did not complete her homework in time before the outing with her playmates; Christina thought that her roommate had already done a good job, so she didn't ask, so she had to suffer on behalf of others, full of grievances but unable to express them.

Thankfully, like Christina, Professor Conrad and the others did not notice the difference between her and Lin Jingru, otherwise the impersonation would have caused an uproar!

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Yu Wei's face, and she didn't want to fall into the eyes of the old professor. He glared angrily, his broad shoulders trembled, and he gushed out unbearable words: "You have disappointed me so much! How do you repay your family's ardent hopes? I have always disbelieved in the so-called stupidity and stupidity of the Chinese, but how can I not believe it with your academic attitude!? Not to mention the series of land reparations since the Opium War in 1840, for now, your country is still ravaged by other countries in turn, and it is almost in danger! At the moment, you don't want to think about how to return to the country after learning to save the country and the nation, but you are discouraged and do nothing! That country has such a muddled citizenry, it might as well perish from now on!! ”

"Hahaha-" Professor Conrad's voice fell, and the laughter and ridicule in the classroom suddenly rose and fell, and Yuwei's heart was dripping with blood from all sides, full of resentment and bitterness. Yes, at the beginning of the last century, not only was Germany involved in World War II, but her homeland was in deep trouble, struggling with those Japanese invaders. For a time, countless unbearable histories of humiliation of the Japanese invasion of China were like tentacles with teeth and claws, tightly choking her throat, making it difficult to breathe.

In May 1915, Japan took advantage of Yuan Shikai's eagerness to become emperor and forced him to accept the "21 demands" for the destruction of China in the form of an ultimatum;

On March 18, 1926, the masses in Beiping held a rally to protest against the wanton provocation of the Japanese ships at the Dagu Fort in China, which was suppressed, of which 47 people were killed and 200 were injured, resulting in the "March 18 Massacre" that shocked China and the world.

On September 18, 1931, the Japanese Kwantung Army in Northeast China suddenly attacked Shenyang, and the "918" incident broke out. Zhang Xueliang, commander-in-chief of the Northeast Frontier Defense, who had 500,000 troops, retreated without a fight, causing the Japanese army to seize Northeast China and occupy the entire territory of Northeast China in just over three months, implementing the appalling "Three Lights Policy" of killing, burning, and robbing everything, and more than 30 million compatriots in Northeast China became slaves under the iron heel of the Japanese army.

In March 1932, the Japanese side used the former Qing Dynasty emperor Puyi to establish a puppet regime in Northeast China - the puppet state of Manchukuo, and the compatriots in Northeast China suffered the pain of exile for 14 years.

In 1933, the Japanese side established the "Kwantung Army Epidemic Prevention and Water Supply Department", that is, the notorious "Unit 731", which actually used Chinese to conduct plague, syphilis, cholera and other bacteria, as well as poison gas, guns and bullets, etc., and thousands of compatriots died tragically;

On July 7, 1937, the Japanese army created the "77" Lugou Bridge Incident, and then attacked North China with heavy troops in three ways, fully invading China, and North China fell in the same year. On December 13, the Japanese army captured Nanjing, causing a terrible massacre. Within six weeks, more than 300,000 unarmed Chinese people were slaughtered and raped, and there was hardly a single person in the city of Nanjing.

On December 13, 1937, after the fall of Xuzhou, the Military Committee of the Nationalist Government organized a defense to defend Wuhan. However, when the Japanese army had completed the encirclement of Wuhan, the squadron had to abandon the city on October 25, 1938 in order to preserve its strength. On October 26 of the same year, the Japanese army occupied Wuchang and Hankou, and on the 27th, it occupied Hanyang, and the entire line of Wuhan was lost; 【4】

……

In the future, whenever I read these historical materials and see such film and television works, although my heart hurts, my heart hurts, and my heart is broken, after all, the haze of war has long passed, and I can only imagine that era. Now, in 1939, such a dark time really happened around her, which made it difficult for her to face and could not bear to hear about it.

For the first time, I feel that the word "motherland" is so heavy!

Yu Wei bit her lower lip and tried her best to resist the urge to leave here with tears pouring out of her eyes and deep resentment in her heart.

finally got out of class, and Yu Wei left the classroom alone with a textbook in hand. I don't want to just walk into the hallway and be blocked by a student head-on.

"Oh yes - it turns out that this is the stupid and stupid Zhi Na pig [5] 'Lin Jingru' ah-" The man laughed a few times, and the German clearly carried the stiff voice unique to a certain island country, "You are so stupid that you refuse to submit the project assigned by the dean!?" Oh yes, it's not that you refuse to pay, but you're too stupid to do it alone, right? Ahaha!! ”

This insulting remark made Yu Wei look up angrily, but she saw that the Japanese in front of her, who was not as tall as her, was pointing directly at the tip of her nose and laughing wildly on her back. On a knife face, the mustache of Rendan between the people is pouted high, and the two buckteeth are exposed outside the lips, like two white buttocks.

Soon, blonde and blue-eyed classmates passing by gathered in this narrow corridor, staring intently at the two Asians facing each other. A short-haired woman dressed in a light orange embroidered white magnolia cheongsam also stepped on a pair of white sheepskin flat shoes, hurriedly walked over, stood not far away, and looked at the two intently.

"Trotters get out of the way!" Yu Wei proudly glanced at the people around her, glared at the Japanese angrily, and coldly spit out four Chinese characters. The students present couldn't understand what Yu Wei said, but judging from the sudden change in the Japanese man's complexion, he must have fought back so violently that the other party's face was blue and white.

The Japanese did know a few Chinese characters, so he trembled with anger, looked around and shouted in German: "Bah! Today, I will tell you all about what kind of character Lin Zhengdao, the father of this 'Mia'! Although he is Chinese, he is an important official of the 'Republic of China Restoration Government', which has only been established for a year, and after signing a treaty with our Empire Japan with President Liang[6] last March, he openly issued banknotes and divided his own land! Hahaha, give some bones and do your best for our Imperial Japanese Army, what a wonderful dog! However, no matter how good a dog is, it is only a dog after all, and it can't be—"
