"The men went to the barracks, and the women went to the hospital." The middle-aged blacksmith replied.

"Barracks?"

Zhao Zilong immediately remembered that when he first entered the city, he was surprised to see some men who were not wearing military uniforms and the national army carrying supplies or repairing fortifications, and some of them were wearing student uniforms.

Now when I hear the middle-aged blacksmith say this, I am suddenly surprised.

But as soon as he heard the other party say that the female student went to the hospital, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly asked again; "Where's the hospital?"

"Xinjiekou Hospital."

"Oh, I know that." When Zhang Hu heard this, he immediately interjected and asked, "Is it the hospital at the intersection of Zhongshan East Road and Zhongzheng Road?" ”

"Yes!" The middle-aged blacksmith nodded.

"The hospital is in the heart of the city, not far from here, just a few kilometers away." Seeing that Zhao Zilong didn't understand, Zhang Hu immediately explained.

Zhao Zilong suddenly showed joy on his face and urged: "Xiaohu, you lead the way." ”

-

"Xiaohu, who else are you in Nanjing? What about your family when there is a war? Walking out of the blacksmith shop, Zhao Zilong asked.

"It's just me and my eldest brother at home." Zhang Hu said, suddenly his eyes were red.

"Hmm." As soon as he saw Zhang Hu like this, Zhao Zilong knew that the other party must be another person with a story, so he didn't ask any more.

Under Zhang Hu's guidance, Zhao Zilong followed him for about half an hour, came to Xinjiekou, and saw the hospital.

Zhao Zilong saw a three-story building in front of him, and in front of him was a courtyard surrounded by a wall.

There is a big sign hanging at the gate of the courtyard, which reads 'Nanjing Xinjiekou Hospital'.

At the entrance of the hospital, there were two nationalist soldiers with guns on their backs, and they were facing a few people who were about to enter.

When Zhao Zilong and Zhang Hu came over, a fat-faced nationalist army asked, "Brother, which regiment, what's the matter with coming here?" ”

Zhao Zilong was stunned, and wanted to reply that it was from the 262nd regiment, but when he thought that he had said goodbye to Wang Zhong today, he would not be a soldier, so he was speechless for a while.

"This big brother, we are from the third battalion of the 262nd regiment, and we just arrived in Nanjing today to change the defense of Zhonghua Gate." Zhang Hu replied immediately.

"Oh, it's a band of brothers! Then why are you here if you don't fix the fortifications? Looking for someone or seeing a doctor? The fat-faced Guojun glanced at the two of them, and his eyes fell on Zhao Zilong.

Zhao Zilong was looked at by the other party and felt a little uncomfortable, so he turned around.

"We're looking for someone." After Zhang Hu answered, he asked, "Big brother, is there a group of female students here?" ”

"Huh? How do you know? The fat-faced Guojun's eyes widened in surprise.

As soon as he heard this, Zhao Zilong immediately turned around and hurriedly asked, "Then do you know a student named Li Xiaoling?" ”

"The hospital is so big, and there are so many students who are nurses, how do I know that Li Xiaoling?" The fat-faced national-army shook his head.

"What are you looking for her?" At this time, another slightly thin national-army looked Zhao Zilong up and down, and asked with a calm face, "Who are you?" ”

"I," Zhao Zilong was stunned again, but then happy. This thin man asked this, he must have known Li Xiaoling, so he immediately replied: "I was entrusted by her family to come to her." ”

"Oh? So you don't know each other. The tone of the thin national army changed.

"I have her letter and picture." As he spoke, Zhao Zilong took out a cowhide envelope from his body, opened it, and took out the letter and photo.

The fat-faced Guojun stretched out his head to look at it and praised it: "Very good-looking little girl." ”

Zhang Hu also came over, and said to Zhao Zilong with stars in his eyes: "Brother Zhao, your girlfriend is so beautiful!" ”

Zhao Zilong was stunned for a moment, with a black line.

"Alright, alright." Who knew that after glancing at the thin country-army, he said, "How do I know if your belief is true or false?" ”

"This brother, it doesn't matter if the letter is true or not, can we go in and find someone now?" Zhao Zilong twisted his brows, although he didn't understand why the other party behaved like this, he didn't show dissatisfaction, and asked lightly.

"Do you have proof?" The skinny national-jun glared at the two of them and asked.

"Proof? What proof? Zhang Hu didn't know why.

"Not everyone can go to the hospital now, and if you want to get in, you need a certificate from the gendarmerie." The skinny national-jun snorted softly.

"Huh?" Zhang Hu's eyes widened suddenly.

Zhao Zilong suddenly frowned.

He couldn't imagine that it would be so difficult to find someone, knowing that Li Xiaoling was in the hospital, but he couldn't go in.

If you want to go to the gendarmerie department to issue a certificate, it is not impossible, as long as you find Wang Zhong for help, but he doesn't want to trouble the other party anymore, after all, it is a big war now.

Moreover, even if you find Wang Zhong and go to the gendarmerie department again, you don't know when you will be able to issue a certificate.

He knew that now not only the Gendarmerie Department, but also other departments, everyone was as nervous as a taut alarm clockwork.

"If you don't have a certificate, or someone inside will take you in." At this time, the fat-faced Guojun said: "Do you know anyone in there?" ”

Zhao Zilong and Zhang Hu shook their heads.

"Then I can't help it." The fat-faced Guojun shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands.

"Big brother, can you help us find her out?" Zhang Hu asked.

"No, we can't leave our posts." The thin man immediately shook his head.

"Brother, can you be accommodating this time, we are really anxious to find this person." Zhang Hu softened his breath and pleaded.

"No way!" The thin country-army directly refused.

There was no way, Zhao Zilong had to stand at the door of the hospital with Zhang Hu.

"What to do? Brother Zhao! ”

"Wait."

Zhao Zilong narrowed his eyes and looked around.

The walls of the hospital are not high, and he can climb up them.

He thought of going to the back and sneaking in when no one was around, but if he did, he would still be recognized if he looked for someone so abruptly.

At this time, the sun was high, and it was about ten o'clock in the morning. There were more pedestrians on the streets.

Two cars drove into the hospital one after another, and the two nationalist soldiers also checked the release slips of similar certificates that the other party had taken out before entering.

Zhao Zilong saw at a glance that there were men in military uniforms sitting inside, and it seemed that they were all officers.

"Hey, you're not going back? There are mainly those who are officials, so you can't just enter them. At this moment, the fat-faced national-army shouted at them.

"You can't go in, so we can call someone at the door?" Zhang Hu suddenly thought. He immediately shouted at the hospital: "Li Xiaoling, your boyfriend is coming to you." ”

"Xiaohu, don't scream." Zhao Zilong's eyelids jumped, and he immediately stopped: "I'm not her boyfriend." ”

"Huh?" Zhang Hu turned around and looked at Zhao Zilong in surprise: "Brother Zhao, who are you that Li Xiaoling?" ”

"Friend's daughter."

"What does that have to do with you?"

"It's okay."

"Oh!" Zhang Hu showed a look of understanding that I understood, turned around and shouted again: "Li Xiaoling, your brother Zhao is coming to find you......"

Zhao Zilong was speechless for a moment.

Zhang Hu is not wrong to call it that, but the name seems to be a bit reverie.

"Hey! Who are you two called? ”

At this moment, a woman's voice came from the entrance of the hospital.

Zhao Zilong turned his head to look, but saw a slightly chubby woman wearing a nurse's hat and a nurse's uniform walking out of the hospital door.
