Chapter 5: Bauerman. Schöna

Major Schöner came to the river early this day, he had to go to the river every day to watch the river rush, watch the beautiful scenery, and listen to the saxophone dancing lightly on the other side of the river, this is the most relaxing moment of his day, no need to calculate for the so-called power, no need to look at the photos of his wife and sons, no need to sigh at the only son who survived in a wheelchair but lost the ability to work, and waited for death, no need to pretend to be a demon and watch his subordinates whip the prisoner with a barb, You don't have to fill out the forms that you find sick to your stomach to send Jews to concentration camps.

Only Schöner by the river in the morning is the self he knows, the infatuated boy who jumped down the icy Main River in Frankfurt for love, just to save the drowning puppy that his fiancée saw; It was the new father who saw the birth of his first son and danced excitedly to break the most precious vase in the family; It was the man who was full of love when he heard his son call his father for the first time, and kissed his son for ten minutes and his wife for ten minutes; It was the recruit who went to war for the first time, peed his pants in the trenches, and his mind was full of his wife who was already pregnant for the second time and his son who could just run; It was the one who came home after the war and saw his five-year-old son, who had not seen him for a long time, and asked, "Uncle, who are you looking for?" And the father who hugged his son and cried loudly...

Schöner listened to Maninhoff's music with tears in his eyes, got up from the bench, took out the handkerchief in his pocket, wiped away his tears, and whispered to the other side of the river: "Thank you, you made me find myself, thank you." ”

Schöner got into his bucket car (a special car for the German military) and said to the driver: "Let's go, it's time to go back." ”

"Major, you come here every day, I'm so glad for you, I can't understand the music, I can only seek my own piece of Eden from the anesthesia of alcohol." The driver was an adjutant who had followed Major Schöner for nearly ten years, and he knew very well the pain in Major Schöner's heart, but he couldn't do anything about it, because he knew that such pain could not be erased from his heart, and could only be slowly healed by time.

Major Schöner smiled, took a mint-flavored cigarette from the Czech Republic and handed him over, and said slowly: "Everyone has their own Garden of Eden, the Garden of Eden of Manhof is that beautiful girl, my Garden of Eden is the gentle Weser River and the melody blown by Manhof, and your Garden of Eden is the rye beer of Munich..."

The adjutant did not speak, started the car and drove towards SS intelligence ...

Major Schöner walked into the office, hung his military coat on the clothes rack, and took off the Iron Cross around his neck and hung it on the clothes rack. He sat on the sofa, picked up a photo of the family of five from the coffee table and looked at it intently, and now he and his disabled son were left. Mrs. Schöner knew the bad news of her sons, and ran out of the house crying, Schöner received the news of his beloved wife's suicide in the unit, and only one note was left at home, "My beloved Balman, there is no one to take care of my sons over there, I will go over to take care of them first, you take good care of yourself, I am sorry for you, I love you, I will always love you." - Gabiriella. Schöner "...

Major Schöner's eyes blurred again, he had retired in the Wehrmacht as a major staff officer, for the sake of a bad breath in his chest, he resolutely joined the SS and became the head of the SS intelligence department in Bremen.

He remembered that when he had pursued Gabriella, he had stood stupidly in the corner of her house, just to look at her; remembered that Gabriela secretly ran out just to kiss herself; I remembered that at the wedding, my leather boots were dirty, and Gabriella's wedding dress was twisted back and forth by her ears; remembered when she gave birth, crying and praying to herself, "I gave birth to him, and he will no longer be beautiful, please don't abandon me!" ”; remembered that she was afraid that Shener would damage her son and not let Shener hold her son, like a wolf...

Major Schöner smiled with tears in his eyes, touched the picture with his hand and said gently: "I will never abandon you, never!" ”

"Dangdang" three door sounds, Schöner immediately wiped away his tears, his face immediately turned into a vicious and vicious face like a mask, gently put the photo on the coffee table, sat back on the leather seat, and said slowly: "Enter!" ”

Lesnar pushed the door and walked in, standing up and saluting: "Long live the Führer!" Report Major! Our listeners have found a hidden radio station hidden in a farmhouse, the person has been arrested, and the preliminary interrogation has determined that it is a spy planted by the French government-in-exile, please go down and see for yourself! ”

Schöner laughed, and the sound of laughter made Lesna's hair stand on end, "The French are all defeated, that cross-eyed de Gaulle is not dead, how long does he think he can hide in a London subway station?" The British will let this guy establish Free France on British turf? Was the Hundred Years' War between Britain and France fought in vain? Let's go down and see, I haven't judged the French yet, try it! With that, Major Schöner led Lesnar down the basement...

The basement was extremely cold, the temperature could be ten degrees lower than the outside, it was cloudy and damp, and the watermark on the wall indicated that the humidity here exceeded 95 percent, and people who had been here for a long time would get rheumatism even if they were not tortured.

Schöner actually hated this place, but he still walked leisurely in the corridor of the basement, humming a Frankfurt folk tune, walked into the cell with his hands behind his back, and saw the French agent who had passed out with a bruised body.

"Wake him up!" As soon as Schöner waved his hand, Lesner immediately understood what he meant, and asked the men of the torture department to splash cold water with urine and saliva on the French agent at once. The poor Frenchman immediately came to his senses, and Major Schöner greeted him with a smile and a "hello" in French, and then continued in German: "Actually, I don't really understand, the Franco-German alliance is so strong, your President Petain is the Führer's guest, how can you, as a Frenchman, be treasonous, how can you follow de Gaulle's cross-eyed dwarf so ignorantly?" ”

"Hmph, don't come to this set!" The German of the French agent is very authentic, "The real French will not submit to the leather boots of you Germans, Petain is old and confused, I would rather be a dog than a man for you, as a French warrior with a thousand years of blood, I would rather die than be a dog for you, a dog like Petain of the Vichy government!" ”

Major Schöner smiled very brightly, and patted the dust on the shoulder of the French agent with the gloves in his hand, "I like people with backbone, every time I meet someone like you, I feel that the world is more and more beautiful, maybe you don't understand what I mean by beauty, it is a sense of conquest, it is a sense of conquest that suppresses a cow that does not drink water and makes it drink water." ”

Lesnar stepped forward and whispered, "He won't explain his upper and lower lines, you see..."

"Come on, I haven't exercised for a long time, my belly is big, I have a good exercise today, you must know that my son is still pointing at me to carry water and chop wood." Schöner said as if they were talking about home, and Lesner and the men of the torture department withdrew, and they stood in a row in the corridor in silence, listening to the heart-rending shouts and the terrifying sounds of all kinds of torture instruments...
