A soldier took out a bag of compressed biscuits and handed it to Lin Yuan, who walked up to the leader with the biscuits and said in Russian: "I'm sorry, it's our soldier who is wrong." Then he handed the biscuits.

The man hesitated, didn't take the biscuits, and his eyes were blank, Lin Yuan knew that they couldn't understand Russian, so he made sure that they were not Russians, and then he repeated those words in Japanese, the man was still at a loss, Lin Yuan thought to himself: "They can't be Europeans, right?" So I spoke English, German, French, and other languages I knew, but the man still didn't understand.

Lin Yuan reluctantly took out the communicator and thought to himself: "It seems that I can only record what they say and send it to the Beijing ship, so that the language experts on the ship can help me analyze what they say." But the group of people didn't speak at all, Lin Yuan thought to himself: "If they don't speak, how can I record, how can I analyze without recording, I must find a way to make them speak, what can I do?" Just shout, maybe they'll say something. ”

So Lin Yuan turned on the communicator to recording mode, then pointed the communicator at them, and shouted in Chinese: "You guys are talking, just say anything!" The person in charge heard Lin Yuan raise his voice, and finally said something, and then he didn't open his mouth anymore, but snatched the biscuit.

The man snatched the biscuits and ignored Lin Yuan, tore the biscuit bag with a hard tear, took out the biscuits inside, and distributed them to a few people behind him, those people seemed to be hungry for several lifetimes, grabbed the biscuits and ate them, Lin Yuan only then found out: There are several people in the crowd who have no beard, no Adam's apple, and bulging chests, which should be women.

Lin Yuan couldn't help but think, "Who are these people?" What are you doing near this warehouse? Are they residents here? If so, why are you so hungry? It's weird! Lin Yuan thought about it, and when the experts on the Beijing ship analyzed what they said, I would be able to know their identities, so Lin Yuan transmitted the words in the communicator back.

At this time, those people had already finished eating the biscuits, and looked at Lin Yuan with blank eyes, Lin Yuan said helplessly to the soldiers: "Take out all your biscuits and give them to them." Just as everyone handed the biscuits to those people, the experts on the Beijing ship sent a message to Lin Yuan: "The sentence is too short, the noise is too loud, and I can't tell what language it is!" ”

Lin Yuan wanted to let them talk about it, but saw that those people were burying their heads in eating biscuits, completely ignoring themselves, Lin Yuan thought to himself: "I can only get these people back first!" But the language barrier is incomprehensible, and if you forcibly take it away, you will definitely have to fight! Lin Yuan was thinking about it, when the communicator suddenly rang, and it was a message from a staff officer of the headquarters: "Lin Shuai, where are you?" There's a Chinese woman in the command center, crying and crying for you to save her man! ”

Lin Yuan said: "I'm in a ......" He said and raised his head to look at the sign on the warehouse, and said, "I'm in front of a warehouse called Wan Fuyuan, what's wrong?" What happened? ”

When the staff officer heard this, he immediately said, "Wanfuyuan warehouse? The woman said that his man was the owner of the Wanfuyuan warehouse...... Wait a minute, we'll get over here! After the staff officer finished speaking, he turned off the communicator, and Lin Yuan thought helplessly: "I encountered a strange mess today, but fortunately, Petropaplovsk is not big, just wait for a while." ”

After more than ten minutes, I saw a small car coming from the north, there was a man and a woman sitting in it, the man was the staff officer, the car came to Lin Yuan and stopped, the two got out of the car, and before Lin Yuan spoke, the group of strange people shouted as if they knew the woman, and the strange thing was: the woman actually understood the language of these people and talked to them!

Lin Yuan hurriedly asked the woman, "Do you know them?" What the hell is going on? ”

The woman took out a key from her pocket and said to Lin Yuan: "Lin Shuai, outside is not the place to talk, let's go inside the house and talk." As soon as Lin Yuan entered, he smelled a strong smell of the sea, and couldn't help asking, "What is this warehouse for?" ”

The woman said, "Lin Shuai, you sit down first, and I'll talk to you slowly." When Lin Yuan sat down, the woman said: "The slave family's name is Zhang Yang's, and she and her husband Yang Youde open a small business here to make a living. As he spoke, he pointed his finger around and said: "Lin Shuai, please look, this is the place where we make a living, this place is rich in crabs, Russians like to eat crabs but are too lazy to dig them, so we buy crabs, make them well, and then let people remove the crab meat and sell it to the Russians, either eat it directly, or cook it, although it doesn't earn much, it can make a living." ”

Lin Yuan pointed his finger at the group of weirdos and asked, "They're the people you hired, right?" ”

When the woman heard this, she immediately burst into tears and said, "That's right, it's because of them that my man has an accident." ”

Lin Yuan hurriedly said: "Don't cry, hurry up and say what's going on!" ”

Zhang Yang whimpered for a long time before he stopped crying and said, "These people are all residents of the outer island, called 'Ainu'. Lin Yuan immediately remembered when he heard the "Ainu people", these people are the aborigines of the Kuril Islands and Hokkaido, Japan, and later the Yamato people seized Hokkaido and the Kuril Islands, so they forced these Ainu people to give up their original culture and way of life, and changed to the lifestyle of the Yamato people, and to this day, there are still Ainu people in Hokkaido, Japan.

Zhang Yang continued: "These people used to live on the outer islands and make a living by fishing and fruit picking, but the Japanese came, forced them to learn to speak Japanese, wear Japanese kimonos, and asked them to change their names to Japanese, and the Japanese killed those who disobeyed!" Some did not want to be popular with the Japanese, so they fled from the island and fled to Petropaplovsk. ”

"But these people look very strange, they don't speak Russian, they are helpless here, and the Russians don't bother to care about them, or we Chinese have a good heart, and from time to time give them some help, my husband takes them in and lets them help us do the work, which is considered to have a livelihood."

Lin Yuan asked, "What about your husband?" What happened to him? How do you want me to save him? ”

Zhang Yangshi cried and said: "My man took in these people, and was told by the Japanese, and the Japanese arranged a mistake for him, saying that the crab meat we sold was not clean, and ate a Japanese to death, so he arrested my man to Zhanshou Island, here are all Russians, who will care about the life and death of our Chinese?" ”

"Our Qing Dynasty is thousands of miles away, I'm a woman, how can I go back? Even if I go back, I don't know who to talk to about this? Just as I was about to accept my fate, Lin Shuai, you came, and you also brought our Chinese army, now my husband can be saved! ”

Zhang Yang got up and knelt down after saying that, but Lin Yuan thought in his heart: "This is a godsend, on the one hand, to save our expatriates, on the other hand, to save those suffering Ainu, I have two perfect reasons to attack the Kuril Islands!" ”
