Chapter 317: Visiting the Hospital and Encountering a Child Companion

The county seat of Lin'an County. County Hospital.

Lin'an County Hospital was built in the 23rd year of the Republic of China (1934), which is a medium-sized general hospital funded by the government of the Republic of China and built by the voluntary donation of the people in two years, and is responsible for the medical care of more than one million people in western Hebei. Outside the gate of the county hospital, two wooden plaques with black letters on a white background are hung on the east and west side of the courtyard gate. The wooden plaque on the east side reads Hebei Lin'an County Hospital, and the wooden plaque on the west side reads Lin'an County Hospital of the Imperial Japanese Army. At the end of 1937, the Japanese army captured Lin'an County, and then forcibly requisitioned the county hospital. Since then, the people in western Hebei have rarely gone to the county hospital to seek medical treatment.

After a brief lunch, Fang Jiren, Fang Lusheng, and Fang Luqing came to the county hospital.

At this time, more than 100 wounded people with bleeding forehead injuries and red, swollen and bruised subcutaneous bleeding on their shoulders and backs came to the first and second floors of the outpatient building on the fourth floor of Building No. 1 of the county hospital and in the compound. Several surgical clinics, injection rooms, treatment rooms, and outside the pharmacy windows on the east side of the first floor were crowded with the wounded. Several consultation rooms in the internal medicine department on the west side of the first floor were also crowded, and the hospital was in chaos. Japanese doctors and nurses were very busy, but Chinese doctors and nurses hid in their respective clinics in order not to cause trouble, and did not dare to come out to treat the wounded. The Japanese officers and men of the squad responsible for guarding the hospital were all dispatched, shouting loudly to maintain order. Temporary posts were set up in the hospital compound, and several fixed surveillance posts and mobile patrol posts were set up.

Fang Luqing came to the inpatient building on the fourth floor of Building 2 behind the outpatient building, but when she walked up to the second floor, she was stopped by two Japanese military policemen with 38 big covers on their backs, and there were two members of the detective team walking back and forth with their hands behind their backs in the corridor. Fang Luqing saw two Japanese military policemen with guns standing at the door of the ward on the south side of the corridor at the end of the corridor. Fang Luqing explained to the Japanese soldiers who were blocking in front of her that she had come to visit the hospitalized, and the Japanese soldiers brutally asked her to leave immediately.

Fang Luqing went up to the third floor again, but was also brutally refused. She wanted to take out a special pass from the Japanese army headquarters and find out where the exact ward of her brother's two pregnant women was in the name of Nakagawa Eiichi who had appointed her to visit the patient. However, Fang Luqing also thought that doing so was likely to startle the snake and arouse the vigilance and suspicion of the Japanese army, because Nakagawa Eiichi knew that Fang Lusheng was his own brother, and he was more likely to expose his identity. Fang Luqing had no choice but to give up and left the inpatient building and walked back to the outpatient building.

On the northernmost side of the wall is Building 3. The first and second floors are the administrative office areas of the hospital. The third floor is a dormitory for Japanese medical staff, and the fourth floor is a dormitory for Chinese medical staff.

To the north of Building 3 is a row of bungalows. From the inside to the outside, there are canteens, dormitory for handymen, laundry room, warehouse, garage, morgue, dirt room, and the back door of the hospital.

Fang Jiren and Fang Lusheng went separately and carefully to reconnoiter the details of the three buildings of the hospital, and also found out all the positions and numbers of the military police and detective teams in the hospital's No. 1 and No. 2 buildings and courtyards. Fang Jiren had a bottom in his heart, and a bold and ingenious plan to save people gradually took shape in his mind.

Fang Luqing walked over to Fang Jiren, who was standing next to Fang Jiren by the stairs in the lobby of the outpatient building, blinking his eyes and shaking his head in frustration. Fang Jiren nodded understandingly, he looked at the patients who came and went, humming and thinking for a moment, and then walked towards the door, Fang Luqing followed anxiously.

"Sixth brother, sixth brother!" The hall resounded with a crisp, friendly and familiar woman's voice.

It had been a long time since he had heard this man's crisp and friendly voice, and at this moment, he immediately stopped in his tracks. For a moment, it occurred to him that he could not stay here, and that he had to leave immediately. So, he lowered his head and raised his legs and walked towards the door.

"Sixth brother!" The young female doctor in the white coat took two quick steps to block in front of Fang Jiren and said, "Sixth brother, I'm calling you, why don't you ignore me?" ”

Francis looked up and was surprised, huh? How could it be her?! How could she be in the county hospital?! Is she the doctor here? Isn't she still studying in Japan?

"I'm sorry. Doctor, you've mistaken someone. Francis calmly denied.

"Sixth brother, don't you know me? Do you take a closer look at who I am? ”

"Doctor, I'm sorry, I don't know you and I've never met you."

"Sixth brother, I'm Ding Mei, Ding Ruxuan's sister, why don't you know me? We haven't been apart for a few years. ”

"What Ding Mei? Who is Ding Ruxuan? I don't even know what you're talking about? It's inexplicable. After saying that, Fang Jiren pulled his legs and left.

Ding Mei reached out and grabbed Fang Jiren's right wrist and pulled it to the east side of the door, and whispered:

"Sixth brother, you're still so naughty, it's so annoying! No matter how you don't admit it, you are Fang Jiren, Xiao Liuzi, and the little young master of the Fang family, and you are still the company commander of the sixth company of the second battalion of the Eighth Route Army Supplementary Regiment stationed in Shuihe Village. It's a pity that you were removed from your post for review after only one day as a company commander, and not long after the transfer of the health team, you were sent out of Shuihe Village by Regiment Commander Yu Genshan and secretly infiltrated the Hebei border area to find the lost and wounded soldiers. Ay? Sixth brother, what are you doing at the county hospital today? Do you want to steal some penicillin, anti-inflammatory drugs, narcotics, etc.? Hmph, don't even think about it, beware of being caught by the imperial army. ”

Hearing Ding Mei say this, Fang Jiren's heart felt as if he had been hit hard, and he said calmly:

"Doctor, I don't understand what you said so much, and I'm getting more and more confused, you really recognize the wrong person. Please let go of your hands with respect for yourself. ”

"Alright. Sixth brother, don't pretend anymore. I'll recognize you if you're disguised like this. You may have forgotten, but I haven't. When we were performing a civilized drama in the county middle school drama club, you put on makeup like this, I am too familiar with you, and I am so impressed. Ding Mei let go of her hand and walked behind Fang Luqing, who was standing more than a meter away, raised her hand and gently patted Fang Luqing's shoulder and whispered: "Qing'er, don't pretend anymore, I recognize you at a glance." You come over to me. ”

"Sister Mei, I, I." Fang Luqing helplessly followed Ding Mei back to Fang Jiren, and whispered in embarrassment: "Sixth brother, you see that Sister Mei recognizes it." ”

"What Sixth Brother? Qing'er, you are so old, why are you still screaming so ignorant of etiquette and rules? Is Sixth Brother what you should be called? You should call him Uncle Six. I feel wronged when you call me sister. ”

"Okay, okay, I've said everything, I'm leaving." Francis said irritably.

"Let's go? Where are you going? Fang Jiren, if I shouted here that there was the Communist Eighth Route Army, all the imperial soldiers and detective teams in the hospital would immediately run over and surround and arrest you. Why don't I try to shout? Ding Mei said with a stern face.

"Huh? Sister Mei, don't, don't shout. Fang Luqing stopped.
