Chapter 10 Asking for help.
Just after five o'clock in the afternoon, it was already dark. The winter sun is synonymous with stinginess, and while it is slowly sinking, Lin Hai has already followed Takekiya back to Sakuragi House.
Zhumuya asked Lin Hai to eat with him, they knelt opposite each other, Lin Hai was a little uncomfortable, he looked up and wanted to say something, but he bumped into Zhumuya's eyes. He smiled awkwardly, and Takekiya laughed along.
Lin Hai felt that Zhu Muya's smile was a little sly, and he thought that Zhu Mu Ya was like a weasel who often went to a farmer's house to steal chickens, which made him feel chills in his back.
Takekiya kept his chopsticks on the table and didn't move, and he said, Lin Hai, tomorrow night the section chief of the Mei Agency, Arakawa Engen, is going to hold a birthday party, and you have to go with me. Lin Hai agreed without the slightest hesitation, and such a move made Zhu Muya have to wonder if Lin Hai had other purposes.
Immediately after, Zhumuya motioned for Lin Hai to calm down, and they spent a quiet dinner time. Originally, Lin Hai should go back to his room after following Takeki Ya to talk about the Japanese to be spoken after eating, but he didn't, he said, Mr. Takeki, I want to buy a radio.
Takekiya agreed, and he instructed Shiro Kawamura to send someone to buy it, without asking Lin Hai why he wanted that kind of thing. He didn't ask, Lin Hai didn't say, and they sat opposite each other relatively silently. Lin Hai was a little impatient, he wanted to ask Zhumuya why he was so good to him.
At this time, Takeki's subordinates returned with radios. Lin Hai looked very excited, he took the radio and put it on the low table, looked up at Zhu Muya, and withdrew his hand in a daze. Zhu Muya didn't know why Lin Hai was so excited, but he had to admit that seeing Lin Hai like this made him feel very good. He said to Lin Hai, that is already your thing.
Lin Hai thanked Takeki Ya and left his room with the radio, and Lin Hai walked through the wooden plank road of Sakuragi House to his door. He circled the radio with one hand and pulled the shoji with the other, and his steps were not large, and he seemed a little cautious. After putting the radio on the bed, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Hai turned on the bedside lamp, and the lamp emitted a dim yellow halo, illuminating half of Lin Hai's body. He turned on the radio, changing the station one after the other, and at last, he heard the voice of his longing.
That's Tang Yin's song, Lin Hai really didn't guess wrong, how could this kind of channel that plays records not play the works of Tang Yin, a big celebrity? He missed Tang Yin too much, when he was fighting against the Japanese army in the past, he was so focused on the battle that he couldn't care about anything else, but now that he was idle, he couldn't help but start thinking about all the good things they had before.
Lin Hai slept with the radio that night, he was like a swimming fish in love with the blue sky, and he had to do his best to jump up and down to become a dragon that could swim in the sky.
The time after dawn is boring, and Lin Hai needs to learn English during this boring time. He was not a genius, just an ordinary person who was smarter and harder than ordinary people, so he asked Takekiya if he could find someone to teach him English, and Takemuya replied that he could teach him.
His responsive attitude towards Lin Hai made Lin Hai a little confused, and the Takeki Ya in his memory was not a helpful existence. But he wasn't as smart as Takekiya, and he couldn't figure out these things, so he decided not to think too much about it first.
After teaching Lin Hai for a while, Zhumuya suddenly said, you go to the Japanese consulate at noon today to report for duty, and I will arrange a job for you. His words made Lin Hai a little at a loss.
The weather in Shanghai is getting colder day by day, Lin Hai changed into a slightly solemn suit, with a windbreaker of matching colors, in addition, he was wrapped in the khaki scarf, despite this, Lin Hai still felt that his cheeks were blown by the wind.
When Lin Hai arrived at the Japanese consulate in a rickshaw, he obviously felt that the speed of the car was faster. He looked at the coachman's lean body and some "floating" feet, and said, you don't have to run so fast.
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the coachman's voice snorting, and he said that now that the Japanese Taijun is in charge, he is afraid of them and wants to send Lin Hai as soon as possible. Lin Hai was silent, and when the coachman saw that he didn't speak, he didn't bother himself, but just pulled the car and ran hard.
At that moment, Lin Hai began to constantly question himself in his heart, he felt that he was about to really become a traitor, a traitor, and he wanted to change these.
So Lin Hai fled, and at the birthday banquet of Arakawa Engen, he followed Takeki Ya, under the pretext that it was convenient, and then he walked out of the banquet hall and disappeared into the vast darkness.
Lin Hai thought of Tang Yin and also remembered Rose. He looked at the world engulfed in darkness and lit a cigarette in the bookstore at the corner of the street. After a cigarette disappeared, he wanted to have another one, but he knew that there was no time, so he called a rickshaw, and he asked the driver to pull him to Tang Yin's house.
Tang Yin was attending the banquet, Lin Hai was squatting at the entrance of her villa, looking at the lush flowers and plants in the courtyard, he took out half a box of cigarettes from his coat pocket, he decided to smoke them all before Tang Yin came back. Lin Hai felt that he shouldn't smell the dog skin plaster, and he didn't understand why Zhu Muya would save himself from danger again and again.
Darkness infects the sky, and I don't know who is writing to outline the cold haze clouds. There was too much snow this year, and it was too cold. Lin Hai was wrapped in a coat, his hands were exposed to the cold wind with a cigarette, and he could feel the tingling sensation in his fingertips. He thought that maybe the person he was waiting for in the end was not Tang Yin but someone sent by Zhumuya, if this was the case, he was afraid that he would be unable to escape death.
But he saw Tang Yin, the amorous woman who came back in a car. Her face was solemn, and the flush on her face was unsure whether it was painted or frozen. Tang Yin didn't look at Lin Hai more, and she didn't let the security guard drive him away. Lin Hai was in a hurry, so he grabbed her wrist. He knew that this was abrupt Tang Yin, but he gritted his teeth and refused to let go. He said, Tang Yin, I need your help.
I'm going back to the First War Zone in ten days.
Tang Yin was moved, but she still had a cold face, she said, come in and talk.
Lin Hai followed her, and in the house, wet footprints were left everywhere he stepped on, and those footprints spread all the way to Tang Yin's study. Tang Yin casually took out a book and handed it to Lin Hai, her fingers were slender and white, and her nails were painted bright red. Lin Hai felt that Tang Yin was different from before, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
He is desperate, if he doesn't want to become a real traitor, he can only turn to Tang Yin for help.
Tang Yin was very calm, she knew Lin Hai's current situation, she sat on the sofa and looked at an English book, and did not speak for a long time. So Lin Hai said, Tang Yin, can you protect me for ten days? Tang Yin smiled, she said, in ten days, you are going back to the first war zone to be your second lieutenant?
Lin Hai was silent for a long time, he didn't know how to explain to Tang Yin, and finally he said this, he said, I left this time as a wild wolf Zhou Mu, and after I got there, I was going to connect with a person codenamed Moth.
Tang Yin shifted her gaze from books to Lin Hai, she said, you really trust me, do you think that if I help you once, I will help you again and again? Lin Hai didn't answer, he took out the box of Hardmen he had just bought from his pocket, and found that there was only one left in it.
He snorted and lit it and stuffed it into his mouth, and Tang Yin was dissatisfied, I hate the smell of smoke. Lin Hai laughed, and he said, Tang Yin, I remember that you also smoke, so Tang Yin didn't stop him.
After a while, Tang Yin suddenly said, as if he had made a decision, Lin Hai, I agree to help you.
