Chapter XVII

Two round-trip passes, since it was already early summer, Zhou Nan only needed to bring a few clothes enough. Kelly told Zhou Nan what to pay attention to during the trip while helping him pack his luggage into the classic Louis Vuitton suitcase.

Louis Vuitton has been around for almost a hundred years, and the leather goods and luggage they make have become the pursuit of European fashionistas in this era. In this day and age, only Hermes and Burberry can compete with them.

Burberry was in England, and Zhou Nan couldn't buy their products, but Paris was now under the control of the Germans, and whether it was Louis Vuitton or Hermes, he was able to get a bargain.

Of course, this bargain does not refer to the offset, but in this era, Louis Vuitton and Hermès only belong to fashion products, not later luxuries.

In this war years, when there was no food, there could be no market for luxury goods.

This time he went to Brussels, and Zhou Nan didn't know that he would be delayed for a few days, because he had to plan the future with Hoffman before he could implement the next plan.

However, it should not take more than a week to plan these things well. Therefore, he didn't want to carry too much luggage, not to mention, in the villa in Brussels, Zhou Nan also had his own clothes.

But Kelly is like a mother whose child is going to travel far away, and she always feels that it is not enough to put the whole family in, Zhou Nan doesn't want to fight with her, everything is arranged by her.

Zhou Nan's job was to put the Taoist scriptures and useful books on the shelves into a brand-new cannonball box. The shell box is made of pine wood that has been dried. Although it is not very insect proof, it is still no problem to use it for a short time.

The handover of work was arranged in the morning, and in fact, there was not much handover, because of Zhou Nan's injury, his work was handed over to Rena to deal with. It's just that after he came to his senses, he wanted his seal back.

In the morning, Hoffman's fax was sent to Arnhem's command headquarters, and the transfer of the company was transferred to Rena. Therefore, now there is no need for Zhou Nan's seal, and Rena can also directly transfer materials.

Zhou Nan just handed over the supervised accounts to Lucas of the Gestapo, and after clarifying the accounts, there was nothing to do.

At Zhou Nan's request, Kelly finally packed the things into a small suitcase and helped Zhou Nan carry them downstairs. At the door of the villa, the Volkswagen 82 driven by Julian has been started and is waiting for Zhou Nan.

After hugging Kelly, he was held in Kelly's arms and kissed several times before letting go. "My Jonas, I look forward to your sooner return."

"I will." Facing the servants who saw him off and the soldiers at the door, Zhou Nan was a little surprised. However, he still waved to everyone and got into the car.

Kelly put his suitcase in the seat next to him and said to Julian, "Dear Julian, be careful when driving. ”

Julian smiled and said, "Aunt Kelly, don't worry, I'll get Jonas to the car safely." ”

The car drove out of the range of the villa, and Zhou Nan stopped waving goodbye and sat upright. "Julian, my work may change, and there won't be too many opportunities to meet in the future."

Julian, who was driving the car, looked very low, sighed and said, "Life is always full of goodbyes, isn't it?" ”

"But there's also a lot of joy...... I think...... You shouldn't be too depressed. ”

He shook his head and said, "As a pessimist, I can't control my emotions to move to the happy side. ”

He didn't have too strong a desire to speak, so Zhou Nan stopped bothering him to drive, but just sighed.

The car came to the sentry box, and Kohler also knew the news that Zhou Nan was leaving, so he didn't check it at all, so he raised the railing. "Jonas, when you come back from Brussels, don't forget to play me the Scarborough Bazaar, I didn't hear it this morning."

"Of course, I won't forget."

He lowered his voice and said, "Ada and her mother should be waiting for you, they've been here for a while. ”

Only then did Zhou Nan notice that under a big tree not far from the sentry box, there were Mrs. Hemstra and the lovely Audrey. He pushed open the door and said to Julian, "Wait a minute, there will be two more people in the car." ”

Although he didn't expect Audrey to come to see him off, but now seeing them coming, Zhou Nan's heart was still full of surprise. "Lady Hemstra, thank you for coming to see me off, didn't you go to work today?"

"I asked the supervisor for leave, and she knew you, so she granted me leave." Mrs. Hemstra handed Zhou Nan a basket in her hand. "This is a cookie that Ida and I baked just for me, and it's a five-hour walk or even longer on the road, so let's take it with you on the road."

Audrey glanced at the soldier at the door, laughed in a low voice, and said, "I made those puppy-like snacks, I hope you will like them." ”

Zhou Nan was born in 22 years and belongs to dogs. Audrey also knows this, and Zhou Nan likes dogs very much, so she says this.

Zhou Nan took the basket covered with cloth and said with a smile: "I will eat all those cookies." ”

Audrey immediately laughed contentedly.

In this period of scarcity, in order to bake these biscuits for themselves, I am afraid that they will consume the small amount of flour they have stored. Zhou Nan is also planning in his heart that when he comes back from Brussels, he will compensate them more.

After all, he was much more affluent than they were now.

It was more than a kilometer away from the city, and they came on foot, so Zhou Nan invited twice, and they saw that Julian didn't look like the kind of person who was difficult to contact, and reluctantly got into the car.

However, because Julian was present, they could not speak if they had anything, and they did not speak all the way. Audrey touched John beside him and helped him comb the black hair on his back, and she was not too disappointed.

Only Lady Hemstra seemed a little disappointed, for she seemed to have something to say, but because of Julian's presence, she did not speak.

The car soon arrived at the train station, and Julian looked at Mrs. Hemstra and asked in a low voice, "Jonas, do you need me to get you on the train?" ”

Zhou Nan shook his hand and said, "No, thank you Julian, I want to say goodbye to Mrs. Hemstra alone." ”

He squeezed out a smile and helped Zhou Nan carry the suitcase. "Well, then, we'll say goodbye here."

As his car left the train station, Mrs. Hermstra said, "Jonas, I also asked my colleagues today, and it is difficult to get a pass now, but the pass for the children is relatively easy. If possible, I would like you to bring Ivan and them all. Hopefully this won't embarrass you......"

Ivan is Audrey's cousin, in addition to the older ones, there are three children younger than Audrey, among which Ivan is the oldest, and he is only ten years old this year.

Zhou Nan wanted to shake his head, but he pulled the wound on the back of his head, and he said softly: "It's really a bit difficult to handle it alone. But if you can get a marriage certificate, I don't think it should be a big problem to take a few more people away. Even, it is possible to leave the Netherlands with Arles and Ian them. ”

Arles and Ian are Audrey's two half-brothers, and because they are both over sixteen years old, one is placed in a machine shop and the other is assigned to work on the railroad.

"Of course, it would be better if I could take it away, but I'm afraid it's hard to achieve. The Ulford family is also a Dutch nobleman, and their surname is Ulford, and they are under strict control......" she sighed heavily.

"I'll do my best......"

Mrs. Hemstra opened her arms and embraced him gently, kissing him on both sides of his cheek. "Jonas, now we can only count on you."

Zhou Nan blushed and nodded, looking at Audrey, he wanted to hug and kiss Audrey. Audrey looked at Zhou Nan a little shyly, stood on her heels and crushed her toes on the ground.

"Ada, I'll be back as soon as possible and take you out of the Netherlands."

She hummed and bravely raised her head to look at Zhou Nan. Her height is about 1.6 meters, which is nearly a head shorter than Zhou Nan, who is 1.82 meters tall. However, this is not her final height, because in the records of another life, her height is 1.7 meters.

She had just turned fourteen years old, and there was still room for development.

She lowered her head by nearly a head, looked at Zhou Nan's eyes, and her head naturally rose. The girl's eyes were so pure, with a hint of shyness and adoration, that Zhou Nan's heart thumped.

She finally threw herself into Zhou Nan's arms and hugged Zhou Nan's waist tightly. "I'll wait for you to come back......"

Zhou Nan patted her back gently, for fear that it would hurt her if it was heavier. "You have to eat a little more, don't be so thin forever."

"Hmmm......"

Zhou Nan reluctantly let go of her and looked at his watch. There are less than 20 minutes left before the drive, and due to the number of security checks to go through, it is time to get on the bus.

Mrs. Hemsstra discussed with Zhou Nan what procedures she needed to go through if she wanted to register her marriage, and then hurriedly sent Zhou Nan to the entrance of the station.

Although the Arnhem railway station was a distribution center in this era, the railway station was very small. Even in the 21st century, the new train station here is not large.

However, due to the wartime, the security check here is very strict, not only through several checkpoints, but also in the train station and on the train, there are countless secret police.

However, because Zhou Nan, an Oriental, is too special, his pass is the easiest. The security officer just looked at his luggage, there were no prohibited items, and let him go.

John, who carried a basket around his neck, was the envy of many soldiers. "What a good dog. However, you need to keep your dog on a leash when riding the train. ”

Of course, Zhou Nan is as good as a stream. "I will, actually, I can't keep my hands free right now."
