"The eldest lady still has to do these chores!"
"I heard that I have rented a big mansion outside a long time ago, but I haven't moved it yet for the sake of face."
"It's the first time I've learned that the traitor's wife also has face to talk about."
Whispers and snickering came from behind, Lu Yishan just pretended not to hear it, hurriedly put away the documents on the table, picked up the handbag, and prepared to go home from work.
"Yishan, come on."
The speaker was Pan Chunan, the director general of the Bar Association and an old friend of Lu Yishan's father, a criminal defense lawyer in Shanghai who was known for being decent and jealous of evil.
"Ah, come on."
Lu Yishan simply tidied up her clothes and walked into Pan Chunan's office.
Pan Chunan took off his glasses, rubbed his swollen eyes, and said, "Yishan, the recent fierce fighting between various forces in Shanghai, the areas controlled by the Japanese, we can't make any effort, and the government court in the public concession doesn't know how long it can last, and you all know this." A few days ago, spies raised by the Japanese went on a killing spree in the public concession, and as soon as the Jiangsu High Court sentenced the prisoner, the Japanese military police headquarters came to extradite the person back, which was actually tantamount to an acquittal. To be honest, there is no fairness and justice in Shanghai, and the meaning of our organization's existence is not great. If you have a better chance, go elsewhere. ”
"Uncle Pan, I am willing to serve here and want to do my part for justice."
Lu Yishan heard the meaning of Pan Chunan's words.
Pan Chunan shook his head tiredly, "Judicial justice, where is there justice in Shanghai now, if this continues, not only our lawyers, but even the judges may not be able to save their lives." ”
"I'm not afraid of death, as long as the guild needs me, I'll continue to do it." Lu Yishan eagerly said that the Bar Association was a place that her father was proud of during his lifetime, and it was also her wish to work here.
Pan Chunan sighed and said, "Yishan, I don't want you to have an accident, for your father's sake, I also want to advise you, when your father died unexpectedly, we uncles and uncles have the responsibility to help you, but now, I don't think you have to worry about your livelihood." As an outsider, I have no right to interfere in your emotional life. However, if you continue to work here, it will not affect other colleagues well. I see, you just leave, huh? If necessary, I will ask the accountant to advance your salary for another two months, so take care of it in the future. ”
"Uncle Pan, what do you say, I've been here for several years, and I've always been in harmony with everyone."
Tears welled up in Lu Yishan's eyes.
Pan Chunan looked down at the documents on the table and didn't speak again.
"I see, I'll clean up."
Lu Yishan's hand tightly grasped the hem of the blue tweed coat, this used to be her best winter clothes, she had washed it too many times, and it had faded a little, since the relationship with Liang Liqun spread, wearing it again has become evidence of her pretence.
Before going out, she didn't think about putting on the red raccoon dog wool long windbreaker that Liang Liqun bought for him.
"Oh, by the way, don't worry about things at work, just leave it there, someone will take over."
Pan ...... You mean, you don't have to hand over work, do you? ”
Pan Chunan nodded.
"Okay," Lu Yishan withdrew, Pan Chunan still thought about himself in the end, as long as he left quietly, so as to avoid embarrassment.
Lu Yishan could only pretend that nothing happened, and hastily packed up a few necessary things, she had been working here for three years, and everything was very familiar, including the ray of sunlight that came in obliquely through the window at noon every day, and she left like this, and suddenly had mixed feelings.
She sat at the table for a moment, looking at the tiny pot of orchids that had been raised for years.
Earlier, she had already decided to fight bravely for communism without fear of sacrifice, but she never imagined that the content of such struggle and sacrifice would be so rich and meaningful.
From the day she went to Liang Li**, she knew that sooner or later there would be such an ending, what if the person who made herself pay so much was Yu Xiaoshu? Will she still be unwilling?
An unsolvable hypothesis.
Lao Wu is here.
"This Pan Chunan! It's just an elm head! ”
Wu Junyang lost his temper, "I'm still a progressive!" A few words of gossip can't be carried over! I called him and he said it wasn't negotiable! ”
"Even progressives can't allow traitors' families to work in the guild. Now the Bar Association has been hit hard by the Japanese puppet, and as long as anyone who is involved with traitors is the target of the public, they can't complain about him. ”
Lu Yishan came to comfort Lao Wu.
"I've really wronged you this time."
Wu Junyang paced inside the room, "How is Liang Liqun's situation?" Did the Upper East Bank shooting affect the safety of our funds? ”
"I don't know, I haven't been there for some days, and I haven't contacted him."
Lu Yishan lowered her head.
"Also, avoid the limelight, this time, observe first."
"Mr. Wu, I don't want to contact him anymore."
"Not in touch?" Wu Junyang was a little surprised.
"Did Liang Liqun do something to you?"
"Nope."
"Proposed to you?"
"No, he didn't dare to say it even if he thought about it."
"Comrade Lu Yishan, things always have to be done, is it because this work conflicts with your personal feelings? If so, I can advise the organization and adjust your job position. ”
Wu Junyang was a little anxious.
Lu Yishan's eyes flashed in front of Yu Xiaoshu's face, that day, when the gunshots rang out at the Upper East Bank, she was shopping with Liang Liqun at Xinxin Department Store, and immediately rushed to the accident site in a hurry.
Her heart was beating hard, because Liang Liqun complained on the road, saying that Yu Xiaoshu was doing something.
He's going to be fine, right?
Xinxin Department Store and Upper East Bank are only two streets apart, and the two of them rushed to the scene, just in time to see Yu Xiaoshu helping Liang Xinyi out of the bank.
Liang Xinyi's eyes were red and swollen, and her face was full of grievances, while Yu Xiaoshu looked concerned, with sympathy and reluctance in her eyes.
In an instant, Lu Yishan almost thought that the most terrifying incident in the world was that she had broken the private meeting between Yu Xiaoshu and Liang Xinyi, and what Raush had shot had already been thrown out of the sky by her.
"Sister Yishan," Liang Xinyi hugged Lu Yishan and cried bitterly, Lu Yishan's body was stiff, she looked at Yu Xiaoshu, and Yu Xiaoshu avoided her gaze.
I knew that there would be this day, and after a long time of fakes, it will become true.
Her mind was buzzing, and she didn't hear what Liang Xinyi was muttering.
The crowd fled from the Upper East Bank, the medical staff ran in and out, and the whole scene was a mess, and Lu Yishan's eyes only had Xiao Shuluo's slightly tired eyes and helpless expression.
"Yishan?"
"Oh", Lao Wu's voice came, and Lu Yishan subconsciously responded.
"No, it's not Liang Liqun's reason. I just feel like I'm under too much pressure. ”
Wu Junyang's words seemed to be half a beat slower, and Lu Yishan was gradually able to distinguish the meaning of Lao Wu's words.
"It's not good, you embarked on the revolutionary road to oppose the old-style arranged marriage, and I am most afraid that you will take a detour on the issue of feelings." Wu Junyang let out a sigh of relief.
"Comrade Yishan, you are in charge of the operation of the underground vault because you are diligent and conscientious and tenacious! This is the party's love and test for you, and it is also training you and improving your work ability and struggle level. What I fear most is that you cannot rule out the incorrect ideological sentiments of your petty bourgeoisie. Since we have decided to sacrifice and struggle for the revolutionary cause, our lives and undertakings will never belong to us alone, and we must proceed from the overall situation in everything we do, and we must not worry about personal gains and losses. If you are a little unsatisfactory, you will be depressed, although it is only a momentary confusion, but it is also a manifestation of impure party spirit. Yishan, through our struggle, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression will be won, and a peaceful, just and beautiful new China will be born! ”
"You're right, I'll get over the negativity as soon as possible." Lu Yishan nodded.
"Although Liang Liqun works for the puppet regime and has a playboy style, he is still a decent person, and he is still an intermediate force that can be fought for. We must have a strong heart for other people's gossip and ignore it. History will naturally give us a fair answer. With Liang Liqun's escort and Yu Xiaoshu's lurking in the secret service headquarters, as long as we walk this tightrope well and maintain balance, we will definitely be able to open up a new situation in Shanghai! ”
Lu Yishan took a deep breath, "Teacher Wu, I understand. ”
Wang Jingwei's treason was unexpected by everyone, and it was also a major setback in the War of Resistance, but fortunately, now the Chiang Kai-shek clique is still insisting on the argument of the War of Resistance to the end under the pressure of public opinion. Now, we must not only gather core intelligence on the organization and establishment of the puppet regime, but also strive to penetrate into this core. You can't back down now! ”
"Do you know that Liang Liqun has now become the special liaison of Wang Jingwei's cabinet preparatory office in Shanghai."
"Now I know, Mr. Wu, don't worry, I will do my job!"
Lao Wu was silent for a while, and said, "You and Xiaoshu have known each other for a long time, and it is normal to have concerns, due to work needs, we have a lot of last resorts in our lives, I hope you can understand." ”
"Maybe we won't be able to live here for long."
Lu Yishan did not respond to Lao Wu, but looked at the small house where she had lived for more than a year.
