Chapter 52: Old Friend Poplar Roots

"Honk!" Chan said.

The driver honked his horn, and the guard car honked along with him.

The car horn sounded on the street, and the police who were driving the students saw Chief Chen's motorvoy passing by, and hurriedly reported to the police officer who led the team, and the police officer stepped forward to report, Chen Zikun said: "Who told you to beat the student!" ”

The police officer snapped: "They insult the chief." ”

Chen Zikun said: "Then let them scold, remove the brothers, and no one is allowed to do anything." ”

The officers immediately blew their sirens and the patrol officers who had driven the students away, and the streets were empty, full of hats, shoes, and colorful slogans and leaflets.

Chen Zikun got out of the car, picked up a tin horn from the ground, and shouted loudly: "Students, I am Chen Zikun, everyone come here." ”

The students slowly gathered around, many of them with their clothes torn, their glasses shattered, and their distrustful eyes looking at him.

Chen Zikun jumped into the car and said, "Students, listen to me, during the May Fourth Movement in the eighth year of the Republic of China, I was just as ...... as you."

Suddenly, a cotton shoe flew over, followed by a scolding: "You are a traitor of May Fourth!" ”

Chen Zikun dodged to avoid the attack of cotton shoes, stopped the police who wanted to arrest the students who threw shoes, picked up the shoes and said, "Whose shoes, stand up." ”

The majestic gaze scanned the crowd, no one spoke, no one moved.

"Dare to throw shoes at me, why don't you dare to stand up and speak?" Chen Zikun said leisurely.

A young student pushed away his classmates who were protecting him, stood in front of the car without hesitation, and said, "I threw the shoes." ”

Chen Zikun said: "Do you dare to repeat what you just said. ”

The student shook his long hair and said excitedly: "Say it again, you are a traitor to the May Fourth Movement, a traitor to the nation, you and the Americans wear a pair of pants, connive at the American soldiers to insult our sisters and compatriots, and also crack down on newspapers that dare to report the truth. ”

After saying that, he looked generous and righteous, and his classmates also looked at him with admiration.

Chen Zikun threw the shoes back and said, "In the winter, step on the ground barefoot, be careful of catching a cold, you put on the shoes first, and I'll tell you." ”

This hand embarrassed the student who threw the shoes, and he thought that he would jump out of a few vicious police doglegs to take himself away, and when the time came, he could shout a few slogans or something, and it would be perfect, but this Chen Zikun was not angry at all, he was suddenly discouraged, and put on cotton shoes without saying a word.

Chen Zikun picked up the tin microphone and shouted to the students on the street: "Students, I can understand your feelings......

Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted again, and a female student said: "You live in a temple, how can you understand the feelings of our ordinary people, our sisters are being bullied by outsiders, and our classmates are ......"

She was about to raise her arms and shout, but was stopped by Chen Zikun: "This female classmate, I must point out that the person involved in last night's incident is my second son's aunt, yes, she is your sister and compatriot, but she is also my Chen Zikun's sister, you said that I can't understand your feelings, I can't agree with this." ”

There was an uproar, there was no such explosive news in the newspaper, and the victim turned out to be Chen Zikun's wife and sister, this mess is really big enough.

The boy who threw the shoes said: "Then I want to ask, since you are a relative of General Chen, why do you want to shield the criminals?" Why release them! ”

The students chimed in: "Why do you want to shield criminals!" ”

Chen Zikun stretched out his hand and pressed it around: "Students, the prisoner is detained in the confinement room of the traffic police corps, and the person is still there, you can recommend a few representatives to take a look, here I want to explain that although the nature of the case is bad, it has not caused irreparable consequences, and I promise you that it will be dealt with according to law." ”

The students exchanged heads and ears, and soon elected five representatives, including the boy who threw his shoes, the girl who choked, and the young teacher in the white scarf who had stood on a high place and shouted slogans.

Chen Zikun said: "You go to check now, take my car, and I hereby declare that I resolutely oppose the stationing of US troops in China, and resolutely demand that US troops withdraw from Jiangdong and China!" If you don't reach your goal, you will die! ”

A round of applause rang out, and another ** shouted: "Down with US imperialism!" Long live General Chen! ”

Chan smiled wryly and looked back at Colonel Chand, who was sitting in the car, who shrugged his shoulders in disbelief.

At the end of Central Avenue is the Provincial Government Building, and when Ou Guangyan saw this scene in front of the window, he turned around silently and threw an ashtray.

A crisis was resolved by Chen Zikun, and his early experience in participating in the May Fourth Movement became his valuable experience.

"The students are enthusiastic and innocent, and they can't be disappointed, but if they are used by someone with a heart, the consequences are also very serious." Afterwards, Chen Zikun said this to the director of the police department, Zeng Jiao.

"This will be jointly investigated by the gendarmerie and the Secret Bureau, who is making trouble." Zeng Jiao swore that today's students almost washed away Chen Zikun's convoy, and he, as the director of the hall, could not escape the blame.

Chen Zikun said: "This matter can be put aside first, the newspaper office was smashed is very strange, and it is clearly framed and framed, and it must be thoroughly investigated." ”

……

The next day, Chen Zikun received a document from the Nanjing Ministry of National Defense asking him to hand over the four US soldiers involved in the case to Nanjing, and the name of Defense Minister He Yingqin was signed on the document.

Chen Zikun rang the bell and called the secretary Liu Ting in and signed the order: "Release the person." ”

"No more judgments?" Liu Ting asked.

"Hot potato, send it away quickly, otherwise there will be endless troubles." Chan replied.

Liu Ting paused, and stopped talking.

Chen Zikun said: "I know what you want to ask, I have always been iron-fisted, why am I so irresponsible this time." ”

Liu Ting said: "I understand your situation, no matter how you deal with it, someone will take advantage of the problem to play, making you in a dilemma, in fact, what I want to know is, if the consequences are really unimaginable, how will you deal with those American soldiers?" ”

Chen Zikun waved his hand and made a gesture of cutting melons: "Kill them all, but you can only use lynching, not public execution, and going through the procedure will only bring trouble." ”

Liu Ting was silent for a while before she said, "Can we only get justice in this way?" ”

This is like asking Chen Zikun, and it seems to be talking to himself.

The atmosphere was slightly awkward, and Chen Zikun said: "I saw Xiaobei's jeep parked in the yard just now, why is it missing again now." ”

Liu Ting said: "Oh, I'm going to visit his aunt." ”

……

At Liu Cunren's house, a group of teachers and students from a senior high school were talking to Liu, encouraging her to stand up and explain the truth, expose the facts, and bravely fight against imperialism.

While chatting, a jeep drove to the mouth of the alley, a group of children gathered around to watch the excitement, Chen Bei jumped out of the car, a bouquet of flowers in his right hand, and a bag of pastries in his left hand, and came to visit.

Liu Ting has always maintained a relationship with Chen Zikun, so strictly speaking, the Liu family is not Chen Zikun's in-laws, and Liu Cunren never pretends to be his father-in-law, and restricts the family not to ask for benefits, and bullies others, except for Xiao Nan who often comes to visit the door, he has very little contact with the Chen family.

When Liu's wife saw the handsome and dashing pilot, she couldn't help but wonder: "Who are you looking for?" ”

Chen Beidao: "You are grandmother, my name is Chen Bei, and my father is Chen Zikun." ”

Liu's wife suddenly realized: "Oh, it's Xiao Nan's brother, please come in, please come in." ”

Chen Bei entered the house and put down the pastries and bowed to Liu Cunren: "Hello grandfather." ”

Liu Cunren hurriedly said: "This kid, why did you come here and take things, it's too polite, what, didn't your aunt come along?" ”

Chen Beidao: "Aunt Liu still has some official business to deal with, I'll come over to see Aunt Xiao first." ”

Liu Cunren said: "Talking to classmates in the wing, you are in the past." ”

Seeing Chen Bei walking towards the wing, Liu's wife sighed: "What a good young man, the spirit of the chief, and politeness, if it weren't for the generation, our family would be able to match him." ”

Liu Cunren sank his face: "Old woman, what nonsense." ”

As soon as Chen Bei entered the wing, the students immediately turned on the pot, clamoring for him to tell the story of the night, Chen Bei first offered flowers to his little aunt, cleared his throat and was about to say that he was like a ** fighting American ruffian, when he suddenly saw a familiar figure in the crowd, with a thin face, a snow-white scarf, and a simple blue cloth gown, looking at himself with a smile.

"Poplar roots?" Chen Bei asked tentatively.

Yang Shugen nodded: "Old friend, I finally see you again." ”

The two childhood friends hugged each other tightly, and the classmates were dumbfounded, but they didn't expect Mr. Yang and the pilot to be old acquaintances.

Chen Bei smiled: "Ouch, old friend, you are my aunt's teacher, aren't you two generations higher than me, I have to call you uncle." ”

Yang Shugen said: "How can there be so much exquisiteness, there are no generations in the rivers and lakes, heroes have no age, we are still good brothers." ”

Chen Beidao: "That is, what is not a generation, it is a feudal thing. ”

There was a burst of laughter, and Yang Shugen said: "By the way, what did those American soldiers do?" ”

Chen Beidao: "What else, lose power and humiliate the country, and send it to Nanjing to be handed over to the US military for processing." ”

Yang Shugen waved his fist hatefully: "Students, we have been fooled!" ”

Chen Beidao: "I can't say that, my father also has a hard time, the Nanjing Ministry of National Defense has twelve gold medals, who can disobey, who can bear the responsibility." ”

Yang Shugen thought for a while, and said with a hearty smile: "Okay, let's not talk about politics, let's talk about something else, our provincial senior high school wants to have a Christmas party with the Air Force, do you think it's feasible." ”

Chen Beidao: "Isn't that just a matter of one sentence?" ”

The female classmates were immediately overjoyed, and a few girls secretly pushed Liu and whispered: "Xiao, your nephew is so handsome, introduce it to us." ”

Liu Dao: "It's good that you like to take it, hmph, it's not a nephew anyway." ”

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door again, it turned out to be Ruan Mingchuan, the editor-in-chief of Huaijiang Daily, who came to interview in person, and saw Chen Bei present, Ruan Mingchuan was overjoyed: "Great, save me the time to run again, you can tell me what happened that night." ”

Liu lowered his head, and Yang Shugen encouraged: "Student Liu, summon up the courage to tell the truth, fight rumors, and protect yourself." ”

"Okay, I said, that evening, I went to my classmates to review my homework, and on the way back, I passed by the movie theater......" Liu Yi gritted his teeth, and began to tell the nightmarish experience of the night, and the second half was supplemented by Chen Bei, telling the story of how to teach American soldiers a hard lesson, and the students couldn't help but applaud.

Ruan Mingchuan put down his pen like a god, closed the book after the shorthand and said: "See the newspaper tomorrow!" ”
