Mr. Cui has a good understanding of the life and deeds of Boss Du, who was famous on the beach back then. He spent an afternoon unveiling that dusty history to Bufan.
"Are you going to tell Leng Hanbing and Little Peach the truth?" Qiu'er saw Bufan's solemn face.
"It's time," said Bufan, "or they'll be doing the same thing over and over again, endlessly." It's time to wake up their memories, and the demolition team is going to start construction in the next two days. ”
In the old place, Leng Hanbing was still waiting for her lover Du Zhongnan stupidly, her eyes kept looking at the corner of the alley in front of her, and suddenly with a burst of footsteps, she first saw the shadow on the wall of the alley, Leng Hanbing was overjoyed, and was about to shout out the word "Boss Du", but it was Lu Bufan who came out of the alley.
The disappointment on Leng Hanbing's face when he saw that the person who came was not Boss Du, he looked at it carefully, he suddenly wanted to retreat, wanted to turn around and leave, he really couldn't bear to tell her the cruel truth, cruelly broke her illusions, and extinguished her hope.
Leng Hanbing turned her disappointment into her anger, she ignored him, pouted and looked away, not looking at him, sulking.
Seeing this scene, Bufan knew it in his heart, but he didn't say anything, he smiled and leaned to Leng Hanbing's side, Leng Hanbing's face at this time was really cold like a thousand-year-old ice.
"Do you want to hear a story?" Bufan didn't wait for a cold answer, and talked about the earth-shattering past of ghosts and gods that he heard from Cui Lao.
The eldest lady and the famous lady fell in love with each other and made a private lifelong commitment, but they were opposed and hindered by the elders, so they made an appointment to leave late at night.
At that time, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression had just broken out, and Shanghai was occupied by the Japanese army except for the concession, and Shanghai became an "isolated island" controlled by the Japanese army. The two plan to leave China, which is in danger of war, and go to a peaceful foreign country to start a new life.
That night, a bright moon shone in the sky in the stormy Shanghai, the eldest lady did not bring much things, only a small suitcase, stuffed a few clothes and a large amount of money, quietly left home through the back door, called a rickshaw, and rushed all the way to the pre-arranged place.
But after time, the lover did not appear for a long time, the eldest lady was anxious, although this is a concession, but there are still Japanese troops from time to time, she is worried that the lover will encounter accidents on the road, on the other hand, she is worried that he will temporarily regret it, afraid that he is unwilling to let go of everything, ignore the theater, and elope with her in the eventful autumn when the motherland needs a good man the most.
The eldest lady was anxious and anxious until the second half of the night, there was no one on the street, and she could hear her own breathing quietly, but the lover still did not appear, and the eldest lady hesitated again and again, and decided to go to the theater to find him, suddenly a gunshot rang out in the distance, the eldest lady was shocked, and an ominous feeling pouted her, she felt that the gunshot must be related to the lover, the eldest lady didn't think much about it, threw down her luggage and ran in the direction where the gunshot came, stumbling all the way, but she didn't wait for her to run there, There was a man in the darkness who grabbed her and covered her mouth, and the eldest lady struggled endlessly, but how could she withstand a man, and poor her was dragged into a small car, in which sat her majestic and indifferent father.
No matter how much the eldest lady pleaded, her father still took her away without saying anything......
When the story came to this, Bufan saw that Leng Hanbing had burst into tears, she lowered her head to cover her mouth, and her thin shoulders trembled uncontrollably.
"After that night...... The eldest lady was locked in the room all day long, never stepping out of the door, isolated from the world, no one revealed to her even the slightest bit of information about the famous lady, and the eldest lady never knew whether the gun that fired that night was aimed at the person she was waiting for, whether he was dead or alive...... Do you want to go to her appointment......" Leng Hanbing said this, crying silently.
"The next year, in 1939, the eldest lady died of depression in grief, worry, and longing...... Bufan continued, "The infatuation and lovesickness before death became the obsession after death, and this infatuated ghost did the unfinished things in life, but again and again, year after year......"
It was as if he had seen that eighty years ago, after the young cold cold died of illness, his soul left his body, and he walked here in a dementia, and then began to wait for a long time......
"I'm dead, I've been dead for eighty years...... Why don't you feel ...... at all" said coldly and coldly, her lips trembling violently, "Eighty years......" she looked around, "It's really different, it's so strange, before you tell the story, this place obviously hasn't changed." ”
"Because you live in the world you built for yourself, although everything has changed here, but in your heart it has not changed, time is still for you, leaving you on that elopement night eighty years ago. The human heart, the human mind, is very powerful. Bufan explained.
"Eighty years!" Leng Hanbing still looked ignorant, "By the way, has the anti-Japanese victory been won?" ”
"Victorious, long ago victorious, in 1945 little Japan surrendered, and now it's 2018."
"Did we really drive the Japanese away? Are you sure? "Cold
His eyes widened in disbelief, "Is it really the twenty-first century?" Yes! I can't imagine! ”
"Really!" Extraordinary emotions were also infected, "The motherland is now prosperous, and little Japan is no longer our opponent!" ”
After listening to Bufan's words and seeing Bufan's proud look, Leng Hanbing finally believed it, and she laughed while crying: "Our country is not dead!" I thought we'd be finished. We've won! That's great! That's great! ”
"That's a must!" Bufan couldn't help but get excited, "Can we China beat any country now, little Japan?" We don't even pay attention to it. Trying to destroy them, an atomic bomb. Mere trifle! ”
"Great!" The cold tears had not yet dried, and he clapped his hands with joy, "The motherland is awesome!" Boss Du doesn't have to be sad and can't sleep at night......"
Speaking of Boss Du, the smile on Leng Hanbing's face froze, she bit her lip, and looked at Bufan, wanting to ask but not daring to ask, "Boss Du...... What about him? ...... that night"
"I'll take you somewhere." Bufan didn't answer her.
"Where?" Leng Hanbing's eyes suddenly lit up, "Are you going to see Boss Du?!" ”
"No, you'll find out when you go." Bufan said.
Leng Hanbing nodded obediently and kept up with the extraordinary.
A bright moon in the night sky is very similar to the night 80 years ago, but now she is not shining on the fragmented and mournful old China under the invasion of the empire, but our increasingly powerful prosperous China!
