Chapter 26: The Separation of Lovers
The sky is overcast, the drizzle is drizzling, and a young man and woman are strolling hand in hand along the Huangpu River in Shanghai. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Steamships honked their horns, slowly driving on the river, and the yellow river water flowed endlessly into the distance.
"Did you really decide to go back to Poland?" The woman in white asked in a whisper.
"Yes." The young man in black replied.
"Although the war is over now, I don't think it's safe for you to go back. Is there anything particularly important? The woman in white looked worried.
"Yes, I have to go back to Poland to get back what is important to me." The young man in black replied in a firm tone.
"Is it about demonic music?" The woman in white asked.
"Yes, when I left Poland, I secretly hid some of the Devil's Music sheet somewhere in Poland. Now that the war is over, I have to go back and get my demonic music score. This is very important. The young man in black replied.
The woman in white lowered her head, did not speak, and subconsciously held the hand of the young man in black tighter. Because she understands that it is useless to talk too much, and what he has decided cannot be changed. She knew very well that demonic music was far more important to him than his life.
In the distance, there are flocks of waterfowl on the river, sometimes as fast as lightning skimming the water, and sometimes stopping to flap their wings because they are covered with water droplets. They are leisurely and contented, without feeling the sorrow of the young lover's parting.
"I'm curious, what is so special about demonic music? How is it different from the music I usually hear? Could it be that demonic music can drive people crazy? The woman in white stopped, tilted her head and asked the young man in black.
The black-clad youth frowned, struggling to search his mind for the right words to explain demonic music to her.
"But I think people in this era are crazy, like listening to demonic music. The brutal war has also made the originally good people crazy and cold-blooded, slaughtering cities everywhere and killing like devils. What is the reason for this? The girl in white turned her head, looked at the waterfowl on the river, and muttered to herself.
"I don't know, but it's all over, don't think too much about it, and besides, you're still pregnant with our child. Thinking too much hurts. The young man in black comforted her softly.
The two of them found a place to sit on the embankment by the river. The mist slowly rises on the surface of the river, and the hazy river scenery has a special beauty.
The girl in white leaned her head on the shoulder of the young man in black and said gently, "Only your love makes my heart feel warm." I love you. ”
"I love you and our children too." The young man in black petted her head and hugged her tightly.
"I didn't expect that I would fall in love with you, a foreigner. Even my parents were surprised. The woman in white said.
"By the way, do you have any news from your parents?" The young man in black asked.
The woman in white shook her head.
"They have been missing for three months and have not been heard from at all. They didn't write or send me a telegram, they didn't send a message, and I don't know where they were. I asked another uncle in the Government of the Republic of Korea, a colleague of my parents, and he said that he didn't know where my parents had gone. I don't know if he was killed by the Japanese, or if he went back to Korea on a special mission. I really wanted to go back to Hanxian to see it, but he said that North Korea is very unsafe now, and told me not to rush back. But I'm worried about them, where the hell are they? ”
"You don't have to worry, maybe they're on a special secret mission. The war is over, their mission is complete, and they will soon come to you. ”
"I hope that, as you say, they're all right and will come to me." A smile appeared on the sad face of the woman in white.
"Actually, it's not because I'm pregnant with a child, I'd love to go back to Poland with you. During the war, the palace in Warsaw was bombed indiscriminately by Hitler's troops and reduced to ruins. I heard that the Polish people were being rebuilt, and I wanted to see the Polish historical paintings in the royal palace. The woman in white said.
"It's a long way to Poland, and it's not a good place for you. I promise you that when you give birth to your child, I will return to Poland with you and your child. When the time comes, I will accompany you to the Royal Palace in Warsaw to see the exquisite paintings and the magnificent royal collection. ”
The woman in white smiled and nodded.
"When are you coming back?" As soon as you left me, I felt empty in my heart and without a sense of security. It's just you in my world, my parents are nowhere to be found, and I have almost no friends. I'm afraid of being lonely and used to having you by my side. The woman in white said.
"I won't be away from you for long. As soon as I went back to Poland and retrieved the Devil's Music score, I immediately went back to Shanghai. The young man in black said.
"What if you don't come back? I'm afraid you'll never return, leaving me and my children here alone. In the bottom of my heart, how I wish you would never leave me, never. The woman in white said.
"How is that possible? I promise you, I will definitely be back. And will be back soon. ”
"Really?"
"Of course, as long as I promise you, I will definitely do it. Don't worry, I will definitely come back to Shanghai as soon as possible. ”
"Actually, it's not that I don't believe you. It's just that I have a bad premonition, so I'm afraid that you'll leave, I'm afraid that you won't come back, and I'm even more afraid that after you leave me, I'll die. ”
"Dead? How can you die? Don't be cranky. ”
"I don't know, I've been dreaming lately, especially nightmares. I had a vague feeling of bad feelings. ”
"No, how could you die as a beautiful and kind person? Nothing like this will happen. Don't think too much, I love you and my children, and I will protect you with my life. No one will hurt you. You must wait for me to come back. ”
