Chapter 8: Evil Deeds

didn't wear a coat, Zhou Nan blew a cold wind for a while, and felt a little cold. The cold wind also blew his brain to the ground, and figured out the possible facts about Rommel's change of fate.

Although history has changed, it does not affect the general direction, and the impact on him is not so great. On the other hand, if Rommel really changed his fate because of Yannick, then it might still be a good thing for himself.

With such a celebrity, Yannick's future development should be a little smoother.

Back in the room, Zhou Nanlai was in front of the fireplace, opened the seal, and added another piece of wood to it. When the flame met oxygen, it began to burn again, and Zhou Nan left only a small opening, sat on a chair next to the fireplace, and began to look carefully at the news about Germany again.

This time, Zhou Nan had a pleasant surprise to him, because in a photo of Rommel negotiating with the French, a man sitting by the wall behind him looked like Yannick.

Photographs of this era had poor pixels, and when they were printed in newspapers, they became even more blurry. If it were someone else, it would have been impossible to recognize who the vague shadow was. But Zhou Nan has lived with Yannick for twenty years, and his appearance, his temperament, including his small movements have been engraved in his mind.

Seeing that the man's left hand was on the armrest, his right hand was placed on the lower abdomen, and his left leg was habitually placed on his right leg, Zhou Nan was very sure that it was Yannick.

At this moment, Zhou Nan's heart was excited, and he couldn't wait to open a bottle of wine to celebrate. Fate has changed, Rommel is not dead, Yannick is not dead, and he will not become an orphan himself.

The fact that he was able to participate in this negotiation with Rommel and the others proves that he is not bad now. Then Caroline's mother, Vera and Claudio don't have to face the danger of being *** all the time, which is really worth celebrating.

John and Ollie both looked at Zhou Nan in some surprise, not understanding why he was so excited at this moment. The two dogs struggled for a while, left the warm nest by the fireplace, hid in the aisle leading to the kitchen in the large living room, and secretly looked at Zhou Nan.

At this time, Kelly returned with bread and greens for two people. Now Audrey goes to school in Lucerne, because it is cold, the school will take care of the lunch at noon, so there is no need to let the students run back and forth.

"Jonas, you have to go to the town hall in the afternoon to register and transfer your food relations to the town. I had a good word to Vogt today, and he agreed that I would bring back your bread. Not at night. ”

Zhou Nan didn't care about any bread at this time, and took the newspaper and said excitedly to Kelly: "Kelly, come and see if this is Yannick, I have been researching for a long time and am sure that this is Yannick." ”

"God, I didn't find out before." Kelly took the newspaper with some surprise, stuffed the bread basket into Zhou Nan's arms, and ran outside the house to read the newspaper with the newspaper. The light outside was brighter than the inside of the room, and soon, her voice came in. "Although the photo is a little blurry, this body shape, this movement, is indeed very similar to Mr. Hoffman."

Zhou Nan said excitedly: "I'm going to Germany, I'm going to find Yannick and them." ”

Kelly walked in with the newspaper, shook her head, and said, "Jonas, calm down. You can go to France now, you can go to the Netherlands, Belgium, or even the UK, but you can't go to Germany. ”

"Why? The war is over! ”

Kelly retrieved all the newspapers she had marked, and pulled out a stack of newspapers from her room that were long ago. "France and the United States are now burning and looting in my homeland, they have closed the borders of Germany, it is difficult for ordinary people to enter Germany, and even journalists cannot cover in Germany at will, because they are afraid that their evil deeds will be known to the whole world."

Speaking of this, Kelly suddenly felt sad and tears flowed down. "Most of the news published in the newspapers has been embellished, and the actual situation is even more cruel than what is written in the newspapers. Do you know? Hundreds of people died every day on the other side of the river because they wanted to escape the hell in Germany, and some even tried to swim from Lake Constance but drowned in the lake, where there were many babies. ”

Zhou Nan calmed down, hugged her and comforted her, "The pain will always pass......"

Wiping away her tears, she said: "There are many mutual aid societies that want to help Germans who are suffering. I also donated all my savings for the past two years...... But the grain we bought at a high price could not be shipped to Germany, because the French, the Americans, wanted to starve all the Germans to death. On the Rhine, they built 17 open-air concentration camps along the 350-kilometer-long river, where 5 million young German children were imprisoned. They were imprisoned for two days to starve them so that they had no strength to escape, and then only a small piece of bread a day to leave them to their fate. And the women living in Germany are living in hell, and I don't dare to let myself be quiet now, because when I do, I think of the poor children. ”

Zhou Nan let out a long sigh, wanting to comfort her, but he didn't know how to comfort her, because all the words seemed so pale and weak.

Zhou Nan knew this matter better than her, and the Rhine camp was still the news that it was jointly blocked by the governments of several Western countries until later generations, and almost all the information about the Rhine camp was destroyed.

Because there is no census, no one knows how many people died in the Rhine camp, some say 200,000, some say 750,000, and some say more than 1 million. None of these data are provided by Germany, but by third parties.

The most ridiculous thing is the United States, they even said that only 5,000 people died in the Rhine battalion, and no one believes this data, not even the Americans themselves. Because this number is exactly one thousandth of five million prisoners of war, it belongs to pure fools.

In any case, the ratio of men to women in Germany before the war was almost the same, but after the war, the ratio of men to women was 1:6, that is, more than half of the number of women outnumbered men.

Such a proportion of the population has never been seen in any country in the world.

This is just the beginning, and it is also the darkest period. It was not until two years later, because of the need to confront the Soviet Union, that the attitude of Britain and the United States changed and became a little milder, and France at that time did not follow, so Britain and the United States almost abandoned France as an ally.

After the implementation of the Marshall Plan, Germany will be considered a little better off in 50 years, and it will be ten years later when Britain and the United States withdraw from Germany.

Moreover, for more than 40 years to come, the United States will always firmly control Germany's military and support but control Germany's economy. It was not until the collapse of the Soviet Union and the merger of East and West Germany that Germany was relieved.

And they did not pay for the military expenses they paid for in the Second World War until the next century.

Although Zhou Nan knew all this, he didn't have any ability to change it. Because all the aspects involved in this are very complex, related to the development trend of the whole world, and not one person can fully guide it.

Even the president of the United States has no power to change all this, let alone the little man Zhou Nan.

He's not that great to save the world, he just wants to save the people he cares about.

Both of them were not in a good mood, and they didn't want to cook soup at noon, so they ate two breads in a few bites and coped with the noon meal.

Accompanying Kelly to work, Zhou Nan also went to the garbage station where she worked to greet her colleagues. Kelly's personality is very kind, she works hard, and her relationships here are not bad. However, there were not many people at the garbage station, they were all neighbors, and the interpersonal relationship was very simple.

In fact, the Swiss government is meticulous in its work, but because everyone needs to do something clearly, no one is overly busy. For example, the town office is responsible for the population statistics and management of the whole town, as well as taxes, but all the staff in the town add up to less than twenty people.

Like the town's police station, there are only two policemen, and the town's council is still discussing that there are too many people and that one position should be cut. Because Meghan hasn't had a major case for 20 years, the most the two policemen have done is that the cat in this house runs away and needs to be found, and the cow in that house runs away and needs to be found.

In these two decades, the largest bloodshed occurred when a car hit a cow, the cow was injured, and the driver was seriously injured. This is the only bloodshed in this town in 20 years. So much so that many people think that two policemen are a complete waste.

The town office is a little more responsible, but there is only one staff member for tax collection. There is also a tax collector, who is a state-appointed staff member and does not need Meghan to pay for it.

Then all the parliamentarians are part-time, except for professionals, who are also part-time. Even the mayor was originally appointed by the state government, but now that the war is over and the country is returning to the era of a free economy, the mayor will be withdrawn by the state government and the town will choose a part-time mayor by itself.

When he came to the town office, Mayor Arnold saw Zhou Nan and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhou, I originally thought that I could preside over your naturalization vote, but now it seems that you will not be able to vote until the next mayor takes office." ”

"Congratulations on your ascension, and I hope we will have a chance to meet again in the future."

He laughed and said, "It's not a high promotion, anyway, it's still serving the people." I will stay in Lucerne and of course there will be a chance to see you again. ”

The local community's vote was supposed to take place after the one-year term of the year in which Zhou Nan lived was over. But because Zhou Nan served in the military, it was postponed until Zhou Nan returned from retirement, and now it is going to be pushed back.

However, the longer the time, the longer Zhou Nan and the others live, the more beneficial it will be to vote. Because their population is simple, Kelly is diligent and kind, there is no bad habit of not mowing the lawn and not paying attention to hygiene, and the people in the town are slowly accepting them, and no one should vote against them.

Registering is equivalent to transferring one's food distribution back from the army. Rejected the town's work arrangement, and then ran to several food distribution points with the stamped papers, handed them the papers, and the matter was done.

Back at home, Zhou Nan was a little lazy and had no energy, thinking that he had never picked up Audrey from school, so he simply rode his bicycle to Lucerne, and by the way, he also had a heartbreak.

The sky was overcast and it looked like it was going to snow again.
