Mr. Guo calmly talked about his experience, as if he were talking about legends that had nothing to do with him. And in my ears, such a twisty and bizarre story can almost be called a Chinese version of "The Count of Monte Cristo".

When he was young, Mr. Guo's father died early, and his half-brother swallowed all the inheritance and drove him out of the house. His mother ended her life with a white silk strip of silk in disgrace, and he was forced to make a living and set foot on the mysterious American continent with the American fleet, and worked with countless Chinese laborers to build the railroad from Los Angeles to New Orleans with their lives and blood and sweat. At first, he lived in the Chinese slums of Union Station in Los Angeles, but later studied English diligently, and by chance met the noble man of his life, he became a leader among the Chinese in Los Angeles.

Mr. Guo stayed in the United States until he reached retirement age, and he gave birth to the idea of "returning to his roots", and he returned to China with his life savings, but he never imagined that he would encounter an unprecedented invasion war. He took refuge temporarily in the Shanghai Concession, which was protected by foreigners, but he never thought that he would meet his eldest brother who had created his own loneliness all his life. As the saying goes, "enemies are very red when they see each other", even if they haven't met for decades, Mr. Guo recognized him at a glance when he saw him. But that man didn't remember him anymore, and he didn't even remember that he had caused a tragedy with his own hands.

Mr. Guo was not angry in his heart, he saw the enemy's children and grandchildren around his knees, living an extraordinarily nourishing life, so he decided to use what he could to make him pay the price he deserved. By this point, I had already guessed the direction of the matter, the family was the owner of the house we rented, and Mr. Guo had set up his residence opposite his house, and had built a secret passage to better implement his revenge plan.

But life is not after all, Mr. Guo said in a tone that explores the world: "After all, they all have the same blood as me, and I have no relatives in this world, so it is not good to cut off the blood of the Guo family like this." So I came up with a plan to let my eldest brother enter the class room, and as for the others, they didn't hurt me in the first place, so naturally I couldn't hurt them. ”

After listening to Mr. Guo's speech, Cao Wuxian was stunned and a little distracted, I don't know if he remembered his past at this time, and thought of Cao Yu'an, who was connected with his blood. In the end, he said with emotion: "When I was young, I always thought about how much I had paid for my family and how much my family had done for me. But in the end, I still found that if I lost my home, all the struggles would become rootless duckweed. ”

Mr. Guo's expression also became more and more relaxed from vigilance, and finally a smile of approval appeared on his face: "Young man, if you can have this thought, it is enough to prove that you are a person who values love and righteousness." I really want to make friends with you, and now that you are in danger, I will do everything I can to get you out of here. ”

Cao Wuxian is a shrewd person, but this time it is rare to ask for trouble, he said to Mr. Guo openly and honestly: "Guo Lao, you don't know, this time I offended not an ordinary person, but a Japanese special high-tech." In general, the person who offended them is either dead or missing. The dead can still find the body, and the missing ninety percent are also dead, but they can't even find a body. ”

Mr. Guo looked disapproving: "I have never seen any winds and waves in my life, and even the king of Hades doesn't know how many times I have been photographed, if you want to say that I am afraid of people, there is really no one." Wander around here, and when I have the arrangements ready, you can leave. ”

He was about to end the conversation, but suddenly remembered something: "Oh, by the way, here's a letter that should be addressed to Miss Zhu." My people saw a child nervously delivering a letter on the road, and someone followed him, so they simply intercepted the letter, and they must forgive me for my recklessness. ”

He was an understatement, but I knew he had saved my life. I hesitated for a few seconds and said solemnly: "Old Guo, I will never forget your great kindness, as long as you have something that needs me, I will definitely not refuse." ”

And then things went surprisingly well. On the second day, Mr. Guo invited the chief of the concession to his home for dinner, and after some staggering, Cao Wuxian and I got a great favor and left with a swagger in the chief's car. After waiting for the Japanese to be out of the surveillance range, there was a rickshaw sent by Cao Wuxian's subordinates and drove all the way to a Shikumen on Fukaisen Road.

My heart couldn't help beating wildly, I don't know if it was the worry just now or the worry of "homesickness", and my emotions were a little out of control. Cao Wuxian reached out and hugged me, patted me on the back, and comforted me softly: "Your family is inside, why don't you go in and say hello to them!" ”

I was pushed by him and stumbled inside, and the family gathered in the hall. But I didn't see the joy of the aftermath on their faces, but they were embarrassed and embarrassed. My heart "chuckled", and suddenly a hint of foreboding swelled up. I hesitated before I could speak, but my mother said, "Yes, you have made everyone anxious." If you don't come back, your grandfather will be sick. Have you eaten, I'll go and warm it up for you first. ”

My eyes wandered around the room several times, and finally I asked with a trembling voice, "Mom, what about February, where did she go in February, why didn't you see her?" ”

The mother's eyes were puffy and reddish as if she had cried, and her face showed unprecedented horror, and even her muscles trembled slightly: she was missing. The situation was too urgent, and as soon as Mr. Cao's men arrived on the front foot, the Japanese chased after him. We hurriedly packed up and went out, not realizing for a moment that she didn't get into the car. By the time we found out she wasn't there, there was no turning back. But you don't have to be too anxious, she has her own natural appearance, since you can escape unharmed, she must have escaped. The most important thing for you now is not to worry, but to rest, so that you can cheer up and face the future better. ”

At this moment, Cao Wuxian became my last straw, I looked at him nervously, trying to hear him tell me locally, "It's okay, I let my subordinates find her, everything is fine now." It's just that she is physically disabled, and her characteristics are too obvious. After a few days, when the wind calms down, I will arrange for her to come back and be with you. But all this was just my imagination, and Cao Wuxian finally turned his head away and didn't dare to look me in the eyes.

I only felt a "thud" in my temples, and the pain spread from a certain place on the top of my head to all my limbs.
