CHAPTER XX: RESCUE 3

Li Kongrong actually watched Chen Zaihe and Smith leave, and when Chen Zaihe moved him to the hospital bed, he woke up in pain because of the wound. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info just the effect of the anesthetic has not dissipated, and the injury on the cheek can not speak, he can only watch the two push the hospital bed and rush away, and then see the gun-wielding No. 76 commando team followed, they were killed when they left the ward, and the rest quickly took refuge in the wall and crackled and released their guns.

The first few times he woke up, his cheekbones were painful, but this time because of the shrapnel removal, he no longer felt anything stuck in the bones, and it seemed that the surgery he had to do when he woke up last time had been done. It's just that what is more urgent than the injury is the current situation, Chen Zaihe rushed away, Liu Yongren was nowhere to be seen (these were the only two acquaintances Li Kongrong saw when he woke up last time), all the patients in the ward who could get up and move around fled in the desert, and those who couldn't get up lay under the bed to avoid bullets, and in pain he felt that he had to leave here, and it was immediately, and he couldn't delay for a moment.

Struggling to get up, when he got up, he found that there were a bunch of things pressed on his body, clothes and pants, pistols, magazines, penicillin, gauze, ......, he didn't have time to look at these things, grabbed the gun and wrapped these things in his clothes and staggered out of the ward.

The smooth grinding stone floors, the hardwood staircase handrails, the shallow relief roof, and the wide fiberglass windows all show that this is a luxurious hospital, and with the intermittent and intermittent Shanghainese dialect in his ears, Li Kongrong is basically sure that he is in the Shanghai concession. As soon as he thought of the Shanghai Concession, he immediately thought of the Concession Patrol, No. 76, the Military Command, the Japanese Gendarmerie, and the Special High School, but the pain in his cheekbones prevented him from concentrating on it. As the gunfire on the second floor intensified, more and more patients, family members, doctors and nurses ran downstairs, and everyone flocked to the exits of the hospital, but the exits were blocked by some gun-wielding thugs

-- Foreign doctors and nurses can go out, but foreign doctors and nurses want everyone, especially the patients, to go out. When they couldn't hold each other for a long time, the sound of grenade explosions and glass clattering to the ground was heard, and one or two hundred people rushed forward in panic, and the thugs at the door could not shoot, and people poured out.

Li Kongrong, who was wearing a hospital gown, followed the flow of people, and the flow of people avoided the sound of the explosion. They did not go to Shandong Road, but walked west along the alley to the Jiangsu Hotel. To the south of Jiangsu Hotel is Liberty Square, which is a straight road running north-south, to the north is the gate of Jiangsu Hotel, and to the south is Wuma Road (Guangdong Road), on both sides of the road are dense shops, most of which are liquor stores. Most of the people who came out of the hospital gathered here, but Li Kongrong didn't want to stay here. He wanted to find a safer place and contact the Navy or the South Korean Provisional Government's intelligence office in Shanghai.

He beckoned a rickshaw parked on the side of the road to sit up, but he couldn't say anything with gauze wrapped around his head, and the driver hesitated until he stretched out his hand and pointed in a direction. When he reached the fifth road, the coachman stopped again until Li Kongrong pointed in another direction.

The coachman pulled the car, and Li Kongrong opened the canopy of the rickshaw and began to get dressed, only then did he realize that he was wearing body armor in his patient suit, which must have been put on by Liu Yongren and Chen Zaihe. With his clothes and trousers on, his pistol and penicillin, and gauze, he began to remove the gauze from his head, and when only the small piece of gauze stained on the wound remained, he touched the right side of his face, which was swollen like a steamed bun, he thought.

"Sisson Sisson, go to Arid? Thick is not refreshing, I pull the car and can't come to the race. When he arrived at another intersection, the coachman didn't know where to pull it, and when he saw that Li Kongrong's gauze was all removed, his face was exposed, and he immediately asked again. Li Kongrong took out his wallet to give money, but the smallest value in the wallet was ten fiat currency, although the price in Shanghai was rising at this time, he didn't need ten fiat currency to take a rickshaw, and he gave it to the coachman and the driver to go back and preach that there would definitely be a problem.

The pain in his cheekbones made Li Kongrong have no time to think, but he understood such a shallow path. He shook it in front of the coachman with ten fiats, got out of the car and went straight to a clothing store on the side of the road, where he didn't buy anything else but a hat. It wasn't a men's top hat, the brim of this hat was too small, he bought a certain cap, deliberately wore it diagonally, and took a declaration on the counter to cover the wound on the right side of his face.

Of course, the owner of the clothing store would not be stingy with a few pennies of newspaper, he accepted ten legal coins from Li Kongrong's hand, and found seven four corners and six cents. When looking for money, Li Kongrong saw an address in the newspaper and changed his mind about changing the car, and he pointed to the address on the newspaper to show the driver who poked his head in, but the driver shook his head, he was illiterate. The owner of the clothing store wanted to help when he saw that Li Kongrong was speechless when he saw the injury on his face, but Li Kongrong didn't want him to know the address, so he paid the driver a dime for the car, took the newspaper and left.

At the end of Wuma Road is Liuma Road (Beihai Road), and at the end of Liuma Road is Aidoya Road (Yan'an East Road). Aidoya Road is already the French Concession, Li Kongrong only showed his passport to pass the intersection guarded by the Annan patrol, and then took the French Concession Fuchsia No. 22 bus. Aidoya Road is the starting station of No. 22, the car first arrives at Huangpu Beach, and then turns back to Murming Road (Maoming South Road), Lafeide Road (Fuxing Middle Road), Ladu Road (Xiangyang South Road), Fululi Road (Jianguo West Road), and the terminal station is Xujiahui.

Li Kongrong's destination is not Xujiahui, but Jiaotong University next to Xujiahui. The person he was looking for was Du Baiqing, who was admitted to Jiaotong University with the help of the Navy after returning to Shanghai. You can't show your face with an injury on your face, there must be someone around you who can help him do something, Du Baiqing, a little girl, saved him a few months ago, and it is reassuring to ask her to help Li Kongrong.

Du Baiqing was not easy to find, and by the time the car arrived in Xujiahui, it was already dark, and the campus of Jiaotong University had to avoid the concession because of the war and rented classrooms from Aurora University and the China Academy of Arts to attend classes. Aurora University is located on Luban Road (Chongqing South Road), and the China Academy of Arts is located on Aimaiyu Road (Shaoxing Road). Li Kongrong went to Aurora University, but fortunately, he was a first-year freshman here, and under the guidance of a male classmate, he came to the fourth floor of the Red Building of Aurora University.

"Du Baiqing is being found." The boy shouted loudly into the classroom, and in the overcrowded classroom, all eyes fell on Du Baiqing in the front row of the teacher - although there are female students in Jiaotong University, the female students are basically in the School of Management, and there are very few female students in the School of Engineering. There was a man standing outside, looking for Du Baiqing, the female overlord of the mechanical department, and even the teacher looked at it.

Li ...... Sir Lee! Du Baiqing saw people jumping up, she naturally remembered Li Kongrong, even if she only saw half of her face.

If he can't find Du Baiqing, Li Kongrong can only find a prostitute to spend the night, it is impossible for him to go to the hotel to open a room like this, and he can't say anything when he calls someone. Du Baiqing was excited, Li Kongrong immediately waved his hand to stop it, he handed her the newspaper with words written on it, and by the light in the classroom, Du Baiqing saw that it was written: I need help, is it convenient for you?

"Convenient, I'm convenient!" Du Baiqing saw Li Kongrong's brain booming, and the aftermath was still recalling in his mind at this moment.

Seeing that she agreed, Li Kongrong flipped through the newspaper again: immediately find a safe place to live and rest, in the French Concession, not a hotel.

"Yes, yes. I'll take you there now. Du Baiqing grabbed Li Kongrong's arm and wanted to get out of class, but after walking a few steps, he found that his textbook bag was still in the classroom, and hurriedly went back to get it. When she dragged Li Kongrong's arm, the boys in the classroom were in an uproar, and now they took their bags and wanted to go with the men, and the boys were even more booed, and the professor stopped him. "Mr. Du, where are you going?"

"Teacher, I ......" Du Baiqing really didn't know how to explain, she bowed to the teacher and spoke incoherently: "I'm sorry teacher, someone in my family is sick, there is something urgent, urgent, urgent, I ......"

After Du Baiqing finished speaking, she ran away, and only regained some of her senses when she went downstairs with Li Kongrong, she wanted to ask a lot of words, but Li Kongrong's face was hurt, and it was useless for her to ask if she couldn't speak. There are a lot of street lights on the Aurora campus, but Li Kongrong avoids the street lights, she understands what he means, and tries to walk in the dark when she goes out of the campus. Under her leadership, the road was tortuous, and when Li Kongrong felt that he was about to faint from hunger, the two came to an alley.

"Here it is." Du Baiqing said, she pulled Li Kongrong, hid her face in his clothes to avoid the old man watching the alley, turned the corner and went up to the second floor and took out the key to open the door. As soon as the door opened, there was a woman's singing voice and a faint fragrance of fat powder, and a young female voice said in Jiangsu official dialect: "Oh, Bai Qing, why did you come back so early, don't you have a class?" ”

"I ......" Du Baiqing was also startled when he heard the voice. Jiaotong University avoided entering the concession and there was no dormitory, and the girls from other places had to rent a house, which was a dormitory shared by her and her classmates.

"Ah," the girl walked without a sound, she walked to the door for some reason, she saw Li Kongrong, and it was too late to avoid it.

"This is my ......" Du Baiqing's little heart was beating wildly. Li Kongrong wants a safe place, her home in Hongkou is now only a pile of rubble, and she is not familiar with the French Concession, the only place she can stay temporarily can only be her own dormitory, at least tonight. However, there is a non-existent rule in the dormitory, and male students are not allowed to come, especially at night.

"It's your friend." The girl only saw Li Kongrong's uninjured side face, and immediately had a good impression. "Come in, come in."

"Yaoyao, this is a very important person for me." Du Baiqing said this, and Li Kongrong's teeth were a little sour. "He has nowhere to go tonight, so he can only stay with me, and Ji Ping and I will sleep in your room."

"Yes, yes. So the five of us can talk all night. The girl named Yaoyao smiled, she was not afraid of Li Kongrong's swollen steamed bun-like face, and after looking carefully, she said, "By the way, what should you call this gentleman?" ”

It's a simple girl, and her pajamas and slippers are all pink. She looked at Li Kongrong, and Li Kongrong also looked at her. It should be a child of a decent family, I don't know if it's because the family education is too strict, so that he has a good impression of any man who looks pleasing to the eye. Hearing her concern and questioning, Li Kongrong wanted to smile, but a smile affected the injury, and his teeth subconsciously grinned.

"Haha......" The little girl couldn't help laughing, Du Baiqing also laughed, she punched the girl, and said, "You love to laugh, see how Sister Dong cleans you up when she comes back." ”

The dignified naval commander was actually ridiculed by a stinky girl, Li Kongrong immediately blushed, he wanted to quit the female student dormitory under the melon field, but with Du Baiqing's social experience and connections, it may be difficult to find a safe place, and let her call the emergency number ......, Liu Yongren also knew about the call, but why didn't he call? Why is there only Chen Zaihe, but he is nowhere to be seen?

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Li Kongrong thought of Liu Yongren, and the girl who couldn't hold back her smile hurriedly apologized. He didn't nod, his eyes swept over her, he sat down and wrote two lines in the newspaper. The top line reads 'My surname is Li, I'm glad to know you, excuse me. The next line reads, 'Is there water and porridge?' I was thirsty and hungry. ’

"Yes, yes. I'll get it. Du Baiqing quickly went to the kitchen, poured a glass of water first, and then cooked porridge in the kitchen.

"Mr. Li, are you a friend of Bai Qing?" Li Kongrong drank water, and after examining him, Song Jinyao asked in a low voice. In this era, there is no such thing as a boyfriend and girlfriend in later generations, friends may be ordinary friends, or they may be boyfriend and girlfriend, all in the tone of asking. Now her tone is like that, meaning boyfriend and girlfriend.

Of course not. Li Kongrong also added a course in front of it. He looked for Du Baiqing because the exchange of fire took place in the Public Concession, so he wanted to hide in the French Concession, and the only person he trusted and could find in the French Concession was Du Baiqing.

"Really, not?" It should have been misunderstood by Du Baiqing's previous words to Song Jinyao, but she believed it when she saw that Li Kongrong was very serious.

After drinking water and eating porridge, Li Kongrong entered Du Baiqing's room. Although this is an apartment, the room is smaller than the pavilion, with a bed, a table and a cupboard, and the only thing left is to turn around. Although the room is small but feels safe, when Li Kongrong was half-lying on the bed and pretending to sleep, there was a knock on the door outside, someone came back, and a somewhat stern female voice asked, "Who smoked?" Who's coming? ”

Xu said something, and the voice became louder: "This is a girls' dormitory, let him go out." He can't live here! ”

"Sister Dong, it's so late now, he has nowhere to go." It was Du Baiqing's voice, she walked to the door again and shook the lock, and said, "He will stay for one night, you see, I locked him." ”

"There's nowhere to go, and you can't spend the night here." Sister Dong's voice did not ease in the slightest, "You take him to find a movie theater, I can give it to you if the money is not enough." ”

"You're locked, but my stuff is still inside." There was another voice, it was the fourth person in the dormitory.

"Nope." Du Baiqing really has something unspeakable, and there are many things that can't be said. Li Kongrong in the room was also aggrieved when he heard it, he just wanted to have a place to settle down and sleep, and he would leave the next day.

"Why not? What is your relationship with him? The stern voice continued to ask.

"He is ......" It was snowing outside, and Du Baiqing didn't want to take Li Kongrong out. But just as she was about to say who he was, there was a knock on the door from the inside, and a letterhead came out from under the door, and it was scribbled on: Unlock. Turn off the lights. I'll go.

Du Baiqing saw Da Rush, she stood at the door of her room and said, "He can't go out, the Japanese are arresting him." ”
