In the following half month, due to the tense war, Su Huiyi went to the front again. The news about the battle situation is also more than one day after another, and all the lines are losing and retreating almost every day, although both sides have suffered heavy casualties, but because the other side is still fighting with Fuso, the south is even more suffering from the enemy, and for several days, they are suffering defeats.

Jinling was also like boiling water, and it became anxious in an instant, and first a large number of patriots came forward one after another, while waving the banner against the warlords, and then taking college students to give speeches on the street, and they were indignant, and many old-timers in the academic circles also made their own remarks on the war, which caused a great sensation in the country and also brought about the trend of public opinion.

All sectors of society began to oppose the dictatorship of the warlords, so much so that the student demonstrations slowly turned into demonstrations of the common people, with slogans shouted in almost every street and alley. On the other hand, there are also Fusang agents hiding in Jinling, who first secretly steal confidential documents, and also arrange assassination operations, as long as there are anti-warlord bachelors who speak out, they will be assassinated. All of a sudden, the public was even more criticized by the Nandi government, which can be described as panicking.

The Jinling government had no choice but to send additional patrols to patrol day and night, first, to prevent riots during the demonstration, and second, to prevent Fuso agents from taking the opportunity to carry out assassinations. For nearly a month, Jinling was on the cusp of the storm, and the magnates went abroad one after another, although the war situation has not yet been ossified, but many foreign ships have stopped at various ports in Jinling one after another, to prevent the outbreak of war, the first time to transfer the expatriates.

The area where Shen Qiangrose lives is a concession area, but it is very clean, she has been more and more lazy recently because she is pregnant, and her heart is depressed, and she always looks sad. Yuzhu was afraid that she would be worried about becoming ill, and wanted to persuade her, but she couldn't talk about it.

Seeing that the autumn mood is getting stronger, the sky is gradually getting colder, and the sycamore and golden cinnamon in the yard have fallen dead leaves.

Early this morning, Shen Qiangrose got up, because she agreed with Han Guaner to go out the day before, so she deliberately got up early in the morning, after washing, she asked Yuzhu to prepare the car, the number of people marching on the street has been increasing day by day, Yuzhu was afraid that they would not be safe, so he hesitated a little, stood by the door for a long time, and then said: "Miss, the situation outside is very chaotic now, I think it's better not to go out." ”

Shen Qiangrose was originally sitting in front of the dresser combing her hair, but when she heard this, she didn't care too much and said, "Didn't he leave the garrison for me when he left, just let them follow." ”

Although she said this, she couldn't help but beat the drum in her heart, after all, it was such a sensitive period, and Jinling was even more mixed, I don't know how many dangerous people were lurking, and it was indeed inconvenient to travel at this juncture. She hesitated for a moment before saying, "I don't have to go out, but I'm always stuffy in the room, and I'm a little stuffy." ”

Yuzhu knew her temperament, so she didn't say much, and went out in response. When she was ready, she took her handbag and went downstairs. Because of the rain last night, the newspaper was delivered late this morning, and it only arrived at this time, Yuzhu took it from the hand of the messenger, glanced at it casually, couldn't help but gasp, and said to Shen Qiangrose, who had just gone downstairs: "Miss, look at it." ”

Shen Qiangrose saw that she was in a trance, and intuitively felt that something was wrong, so she hurriedly walked over with three steps and two steps, took the newspaper and fixed her gaze on it, and a black and bold headline read, "Su Qishao was injured on the front line, and Nandi was defeated one after another." ”

When she first looked at this news, she only felt a buzz in her brain, and she slowed down for a while before saying: "Now that the war situation is so chaotic, the news of these newspapers may not be accurate. ”

She didn't feel anything when she thought about it like this, and now that she was an abandoned woman, why should she care about him anymore? When I looked up at the sky outside, I saw that there were dark clouds, as if another heavy rain was coming, and I hesitated for a moment, or said, "Is the car ready?" ”

Yuzhu was the first to react, and when she answered, she helped Shen Qiangrose to walk out, because of the bad weather, she couldn't help but nag again, "Miss, don't go out in this weather, if it rains halfway, how can it be good if you catch a cold again?" ”

Shen Qiangrose just walked out without saying a word, until she got into the car, Yuzhu also followed, and casually put a blanket on her, she was more than four months pregnant, and her belly had already grown, Yuzhu was afraid that she would catch a cold during pregnancy, so she tried her best to take care of her.

The car drove all the way out of the concession, and the northbound was unimpeded, because the garrison had already been notified, so the car was followed by a military vehicle, and during such a sensitive period, the garrison traveled with 100,000 points of caution, each with a spear, and was ready to fight.

Originally, the two agreed to meet in a café, but because there was a student demonstration on the street in front of them, the driver was afraid that it would cause unnecessary riots, so he turned the head of the car and went to another street.

Shen Qiangrose originally closed her eyes to recuperate, but suddenly heard the driver yelling that it was not good, and a sudden brake shook her whole body to lean forward, but fortunately, she instinctively stretched out her hand to support the seat in front of her, so she just hit her head on the saddle, and her stomach was not touched.

Yuzhu let out a panicked sigh, and asked repeatedly, "Miss, are you okay?" ”

Shen Qiangrose didn't have the heart to answer her, but just raised her eyes and looked through the front window, and saw groups of students swarming here with flags and banners, chanting slogans, "Resist Fusang, oppose the warlord civil war!" ”

The driver did not have time to explain and was about to turn around and leave, but the crowd suddenly swarmed around, and before they could start the car again, they were already surrounded by crowds of students, and the shouts accompanied by indignation and indignation further catalyzed their sense of struggle.

They first surrounded the car over and over again, banging on the windows with banners and flags, and some students incited emotions and shouted, "Against the dictatorship of the warlords!" Tear off their fascist cloaks! ”

The scene fell into chaos for a while, because there were too many students around, all the garrisons were blocked from the perimeter, and in desperation, the captain had to give the order to shoot, and several garrisons fired their guns downwards on the ground, and the students stopped moving.

I thought everything was under control, but at this time, a male student stood up again and said excitedly: "Students! Now the warlords are fighting, and compatriots are killing each other! The country will not be a country! How many people sacrificed their blood and lives in this stupid war! We can't give in! We must awaken their national consciousness! Join me in shouting against the warlord dictatorship! ”

This undoubtedly instigated the emotions of more students, and turned into a group of anger, and even some students began to smash the car window, the car was not bulletproof, so it was quickly shattered, and the glass shards splashed into the car window in an instant, Shen Qiangrose was originally sitting very close to the car window, and the splinters splashed in scratched her arm at once.

Yuzhu exclaimed in surprise and blocked Shen Qiangrose by his side, at this time, there were more and more angry voices, and the scene was already uncontrollable. The garrison behind was afraid of injuring the people in the car, so they had to shoot at the ground while pulling the crowd.

Shen Qiangrose only felt that countless hands were pulling her hard, as if she hated to tear her apart, her ears were full of noisy sounds and gunshots, and she was deafening in chaos, but she didn't feel pain at this time, just a kind of numbness under deterrence.

Even if the way of this group of students is excessive, what they said is not wrong, today's warlord melee is that their own people fight their own people again, but as a powerful person, there are also many passivity and helplessness, and she has no way to defend it.

At this moment, she suddenly heard more gunshots, different from the previous warning, this time she actually heard exclamations, and more and more, in the panic to look up, she saw that the students who had been around the car fell one by one, and even blood splattered in.

She shook instinctively, and saw the bullet grazing the frame of the car and sparks, "bang", Yuzhu panicked again, Shen Qiangrose grabbed her hand calmly, and both of them were lying on the saddle, not daring to move.

Fortunately, after that shot, there were only a few rapid gunshots outside, and a garrison ran over, looked at the situation inside, and asked anxiously: "Madam, are you okay?" ”

Shen Qiangrose straightened up at this time, glanced at him first, and then shook her head, "I'm fine, how is it outside?" ”

The garrison glanced to the other side again before he said, "The students rioted just now, and someone took advantage of the chaos to shoot, killing many students. ”

When Shen Qiangrose heard this, she only felt that her breathing was tight, but soon she figured out the cause and effect, and muttered, "It seems that someone wants to take advantage of the riot incident to give you Qishao another hat." ”

It is not difficult to understand these things, someone is secretly killing people through the student riot incident, and this matter will be magnified, and finally forcibly counted on Su Huiyi's head, and this incident will further anger the social mood, and the voice of opposition to the warlords will become higher and higher, inciting public sentiment and making the south completely chaotic.

The garrison nodded noncommittally and instructed the driver, "Hurry up and drive Madame back, it's too dangerous here." ”

The driver reacted from the panic of Shicai, and hurriedly started the car, Shen Qiangrose hurriedly glanced out the window, and saw that many students were lying in a pool of blood, not moving, and some even stared at the eyes that did not understand the world, which was more like a cold question.

Shen Qiangrose trembled instinctively, she had never had such a deep fear, thinking that these people died overnight, it was actually a trance, she really realized that this troubled water in the south would get deeper and deeper, until everyone couldn't control the situation.

My heart suddenly became uneasy, as if I knew something, but I didn't dare to admit it.

The car had slowly driven out, but the bloody smell in the air was getting thicker and thicker, she didn't dare to look back again, just closed her eyes tightly and sighed, all this came too fast.
