Chapter 10 Feeling Sorry for Yourself
"Datong College" was founded by the puppet Autonomous Guidance Department after the "918" incident. Originally known as the "Autonomous Instructor Training Course" and also known as the "Senior Administration Bureau Training Institute", it was actually planned and founded by the Japanese as an institution specializing in the training of puppet Manchurian officials, and on July 11, 1932, the "Shinkyo Datong College" was officially established. The original site of "Datong College" was in an old Russian-style building in Erdaogou, Xinjing, and it was moved to Nanling shortly after the establishment of the puppet state of Manchukuo. The new site is a two-story Red Building, the most prominent of which is a tall tower-like building on the top of the Red Building, called the "Zhongling Pagoda", where it is said that "the ashes of the graduates of the college who died in the war of aggression against China are enshrined". The top of the tower has a variation of heavy eaves and four corners of the spire, the vertical ridge is curved, the end is high and uplifted, and the end of the roof vertical ridge of the main body is equipped with the same beast, and the architectural form expressed is no longer a single "Manchurian" architectural style that embodies the so-called Manchurian atmosphere.
Lu Songmian wandered aimlessly along the pine forest path in the academy, she didn't know why, there were still a lot of lesson plans in her hand that had not been filled, but she didn't want to do anything, her heart was like being hollowed out. In Datong College, most of the administrators are Japanese, and the content of the lectures must be strictly reviewed, which is nothing more than to promote the idea of coexistence and co-prosperity in Japan, which is like a base for slave education, for these, she is so disgusted in her bones, she could have continued her studies in the UK, but since her mother passed away, she could not rest assured that she loved her father, and returned to Xinjing, what work is no longer important to her, the important thing is to be with her father every day. Maybe it's because she's been wandering for too long, maybe she's really not willing to be single anymore, she knows that if her father can see that she can find someone to trust in his lifetime, he will be even happier, and if he gets married and has children, he can accompany his father every day...... She didn't dare to think about it, and smiled unconsciously, as if happiness was just around the corner. Just as she was thinking about getting out of her mind, someone patted her from behind.
"My Song--Mian----, who are you thinking?"
When she suddenly turned around, she saw a woman in a white mink coat and a purple dress laughing at her.
"Sister Big Mouth, scare me."
"Miss Song Mian, can't you not call me a nickname? Since you were a child, you have called this nickname and called me the big name - Cha - Chun --- E---。 ”
"Okay, I won't tease you, Sister Chun'e, you don't work hard in the Broadcasting Bureau, what are you doing here?"
"I, go to your education chief Koichi Yamada to get a copy of the broadcast script for the evening, and when I came out of the building, I saw my Song Mian girl losing her soul here. What's wrong? Who do you think? ”
"I don't think about anyone, it's just boring."
"Your eyes can't fool me, little girl, you have a sweetheart, right?"
"Don't talk about me, you're always like this, if there's really something good to share with you, why don't you give it to Xinjing for me?"
"yours, let's go, sister, invite this young lady who came back from overseas to eat, let's not eat Western food, go to Taibaiju."
"Okay, I'm fine, let's go, go to Taibaiju."
When the two walked to the gate of Datong College, they saw a black car parked on the side of the road, and there was a person standing next to the car, more than 180 years tall, wearing a suit and leather shoes, wearing a black woolen coat, and holding a cigarette in his mouth, beckoning to Lu Songmian and them.
Zha Chun'e walked over generously, "Chen Cong, you are really a person, I said you go back first, I will find my sisters, why don't you leave?" ”
This man named Chen Cong walked over, "What? I'm worried that it will be inconvenient for you to go back, so I'm waiting to see you off, this sister is ......"
"Let me introduce you, this is my best, the little sister who grew up together---- Miss Lu Songmian, a teacher at Datong College, this is Chen Cong, the captain of the special service section of the Capital Police Department, my friend."
Chen Cong stepped forward to shake hands with Lu Songmian, "Hello, Miss Lu." Fortunately, where are you going? Shall I send you? ”
Zha Chun'e said disapprerovingly, "Captain Chen has a heart, then I bother you to send us to Taibaiju." Let's talk about it first, our sisters go to dinner, but you have nothing to do, when you get to the ground, you can leave, and you don't have to settle accounts or anything? ”
"Okay, two young ladies, please get in the car. Chen is willing to serve. ”
Chen Cong started the car and galloped towards Taibai.
There was nothing to say all the way, Lu Songmian and Zha Chun'e got out of the car, Chen Cong seemed to have something to say, Zha Chun'e waved his hand to the car, "Get busy, Captain Chen." Goodbye. The indifferent look made Chen Cong want to speak and stop. Chen Cong, who was a little unhappy, pressed the car whistle and drove towards the street, he didn't want to be entangled, but the amorous Zha Chun'e always made him want to stop, he couldn't suppress his inner thoughts and desire to possess, he decided that she was destined to be his prey, where did this Lu Songmian come from? Why are you so close to Zha Chun'e? Chen Cong, who acted strangely and rigorously, drove towards the National Police Department with many doubts.
Lu Songmian and Cha Chun'e walked hand in hand to the lobby of Taibaiju, and the guy Ma Wu greeted him, "Oh, isn't this Miss Cha?" You are on the second floor, please, keep the small 'Mingyue Xuan' for you, and go upstairs slowly. "I shouted upstairs again, "Upstairs listened----,Miss Zha of the Broadcasting Bureau came to the ---- of 'Mingyue Xuan'."
The two sisters went up the wooden staircase to the second floor, and a capable young man greeted them at the staircase and let them into the "Mingyue Xuan" near the window.
The young man asked politely, "What did the two sisters order?" Small ones are arranged immediately. ”
Zha Chun'e smiled and said, "Brother, bring my sister a plate of squirrel mandarin fish, stewed winter melon pork ribs, and two green vegetables, you can look at the arrangement." Wine is not necessary. ”
The young man answered and went out.
Zha Chun'e and Lu Songmian sat down at the table, and Zha Chun'e asked softly: "Sister, my sister is two years older than you, my sister can see it, you are emotional, tell my sister, which handsome guy made you fall in love with your sister?" ”
"Sister, what do you say? Also...... I can only say that I have a good feeling, but nothing else, I only saw it yesterday. ”
"What? I only saw it yesterday, so let's be so concerned? Is that all the young girls in England like that? Tell me about my sister, what does he do? Where are the people? Much stronger than Yu Shanfeng of the Yu Zhishan family? ”
"Sister, I can't say how much I care. His name is Lu Li, dignified, majestic, thick eyebrows and big eyes, awe-inspiring and upright, just like my father when he was young, he has surpassed everything, and his kung fu is also very good, last night in order to save Yu Zhishan, first when everyone was defenseless, he instantly shot down the flying knife with a flying saucer, and then in order to save Yu Zhishan in the chaos of guns, he was wounded by a gunshot, and now he is still lying in the hospital. I wondered, how could such an outstanding man also work in the Xing'an Dong garrison? And this time, he was also valued by Lao Yu, serving as the deputy chief police inspector of the Capital Police Department, and also serving as the chief inspector of the local police academy. He's definitely fascinated by his agility, and his smile always makes you want to take a few more looks. I didn't want my father to do things for the Japanese, because he always said that it was not easy to survive in troubled times. Alas, the world of men is like this, and my father's eyes are poisonous enough to see through my thoughts, and he told me that he doesn't know the roots, and he doesn't want me to think cranky. Can...... But I can't help but think about him and worry about him. My mother passed away, and I can only talk to my sister about these heartfelt words. ”
"I can't see it, my sister is really tempted, then isn't he one level higher than Chen Cong who just sent us, he is the captain of the special service section action team, everyone is on the same level as the head of the special service section, Ken Moriyoshi, as far as I know, among the 12 functional departments in this police department, except for the security department, the person in charge is Japanese, it seems that he really got Yu Zhishan's attention, and it is estimated that Lao Yu is also working hard in Zheng Xiaoxu, otherwise it is impossible for him to do such an important position."
"Was that Chen Cong chasing you just now? You can see that he has a heart for you. ”
"Hey, that's it. His appearance and talent are not said, including the background, but he is occasionally very gloomy, so I always have a little bit of inability to see through, saying weird? It's not, it's perverted, it's not going to talk about it, anyway, I feel like he's just not very neat and easy, as if someone owes him, but it's still good to me. Anyway, I think there is such a person as him chasing, according to his character, on the ground of Xinjing, other men don't dare to come forward, and other men don't dare to chase, so let's come with him first, and rashly refuse to make anything happen. ”
"As for it? Who is he, my sister ignores him, what can he do? ”
"He, I only know that he was also very bitter when he was a child, when he was a teenager, his mother who depended on him died, and later went to Japan to study under the sponsorship of Zhang Jinghui, the speaker of the Senate, and entered the police department after returning to China. It stands to reason that Zhang Jinghui is his benefactor, he now wants an identity, has an identity, has no shortage of money, and lives a life like a young master, but from his mouth, he has never heard that he misses Zhang Jinghui's good, once he didn't know why he fractured the lower leg of Zhang Jinghui's second son Zhang Linyou, and then it was gone. In short, his difficult childhood and adolescence made me sympathize with him from the bottom of my heart, and his strange behavior always made me feel uneasy. Alas, don't talk about him, I'm so confused with him. The sister asked you, do you think about people so much, do you go to the hospital to see him? ”
"On the night of the incident, I went to the hospital with my father, Uncle Nalan, and Uncle Wang Zhiyou, and then my father asked people to send me home, and I went there secretly once in the morning, but there were too many people, and I didn't say a few words, and I came back."
"It's amazing, you're really concerned. Don't worry, my sister will help you palm your eyes again, and see where this deputy chief police superintendent is, so that my sister is so concerned. ”
"Sister, you really gave me a snack, I don't know much about his past, and I don't know if he has a family, so I secretly started dreaming. …… Don't say it, it's embarrassing. ”
"Don't say that you are a talented girl who has returned from studying abroad, which girl like a flower is not pregnant with spring? Sister asked someone to inquire about you. Wrapped around my sister. ”
"Two sisters, the dish is here----"
At this time, the door opened, and the young man carried the tray and went into the house to serve the food.
"Well, I'm hungry too, let's eat, sister."
The two chatted while eating.
At this time, I heard a woman talking in the corridor on the second floor.
"Xinghua, go to the back kitchen to see, how is the chicken soup stewed? If it's okay, you let them fill it in a jar, and we will go to the army hospital to see Vice President Lu, and I heard Luo Weixian say that he is seriously injured, and I have to visit him, even if he is injured, he has to make up for it. ”
"Okay, boss, I'll go check it out. You are ready to go, I see that you have been soulless for most of the day, and I will feel at ease when I see you. ”
"What nonsense are you talking about, this little girl?"
The two sisters Lu Songmian and Zha Chun'e in this "Mingyue Xuan" listened really well, this is the dialogue between the master and servant of Lang Helan, the proprietress of Taibaiju, it is not difficult to see that this boss Lang also has a lot of good feelings for Lu Li.
Zha Chun'e whispered, "Little sister, did you hear that?" This kid is about to become a 'heartthrob', you have to hurry. ”
Lu Songmian said: "Sister, it's not like that, how can it be so serious?" But how did he get to know this boss Lang? ”
"Don't worry, there must be a story here, after a while, I'll call that sweet-mouthed Mawu, and I'll find out when I ask. Look at my sister's. ”
After a while, there was another conversation in the hallway.
"Xinghua, be careful, let Ma Wu call a car from the door, I'll go downstairs immediately."
"Boss, do you need to bring other dishes?"
"Haven't I arranged it all? Bring it with you. ”
After a while, Zha Chun'e shouted out, "Brother, come in." ”
The young man pushed the door open and came in, "Sister, if there is anything you can do?" ”
"You call Ma Wu downstairs, sister, I'll ask him something."
"Okay, wait a minute."
With the sound ......of footsteps of "Oooo ”
"Ma Wu, my sister asks you something, you have to answer truthfully."
"Certainly, definitely, Miss, as long as Ma Wu knows, he must know everything, and he must say everything."
"Let me ask you, do you know that the police agency has a new chief of the security section with the rank of deputy chief police inspector?"
"I know, our entire Taibai Ju knows it!"
"Why is that? He didn't go to the police department to take office, what did he do in Taibaiju? Boasting about the official? ”
"Miss Cha, you don't know. Listen to the little ones to tell me in detail. ”
Ma Wu cleared his throat again, picked up a chopstick and a saucer in his hand, dotted in front of the table, and said in an allegro tone: "It is said that at noon the day before yesterday, Director Nalan and this Lu hero came to the small shop for dinner. The hero Director Lu, who came to the aid of righteousness, slapped him twice, and flew his feet to grab the gun back; effortlessly, the big villain was captured alive, everyone praised in unison, and the director of the hall came to maneuver; It is said that in troubled times, there is always a person in charge, Huanghuang Taibaiju, a hero's reputation! ”
Zha Chun'e listened to Zhile, "This is still a set, who made it up?" You can change your career. ”
Ma Wu blushed and said: "Sister, you just tease me, how can I do this, this is the Allegro book compiled by Dong Wuye, who is always telling stories in the lobby on the first floor of our house, after experiencing that incident, talking about it every day, Ma Wu, I am learning and selling now!" Hey-----"
"No wonder, it's none of your business, go down."
"Okay, sister, thank you for admiring my face and letting me perform."
"This kid has a good mouth. Do you hear that? This surnamed Lu has only been in Xinjing for a few days, and he has become a hero, sister, don't say it, this person really has that righteousness, not like those traitors and scum. ”
Lu Songmian said angrily: "Sister, you said that you inquired, and the boss didn't know about it, you, you really work in the Broadcasting Bureau." ”
"Do you know what you're afraid of? I know that it's just right, isn't the yellow flower beauty of our big family better than her little widow? Knowing saved her from worrying. ”
"Sister, people may be grateful, I didn't eat jealousy, you help me put the vinegar jar on the table first. You, big mouth, big giveaway. ”
The two sisters talked and laughed, ate meals, and talked about men.
When I was chatting, I heard Ma Wu's bright voice shouting downstairs, "Upstairs, I listened to President Lu of the ----, Jichang Chamber of Commerce coming to the ---- of 'Micro Swift Double Flying'."
When Lu Songmian heard this, he just wanted to say excitedly: "My father is here!" ”
Immediately afterwards, I heard the sound of steady leather shoes and the sound of women's high heels on the wooden stairs, one was thick and the other was crisp, and the footsteps were two people.
As soon as he heard that there was a woman accompanying him, Lu Songmian couldn't help but sit down again.
Understandably, the two sat down in the next room without closing the door.
The woman said, "The man has arranged the dishes that Mr. Lu often eats." ”
The man went downstairs.
I heard the woman say again: "Yuntong (Lu Shikun's character), you have to help him with a few things on Jifang's side recently, because of the matter of pouring cotton yarn last year, the Japanese have not made trouble for him, this time he got this batch of sea salt, you have to help him sell it, or it will be difficult to maintain it in the metropolis." ”
"You can rest assured, he often succeeded Fang to block the gun for me before he made his leg lame, needless to say, our friendship is needless to say, his business is my business. It's you, take care of yourself, since Song Mian's mother passed away last year, I have wanted to mention our affairs to Song Mian a few times, but the time to think about it is too short, after all, you are only 5 years older than her, take a slow, you have to understand my situation. ”
"Are you polite to me? I Cidi admires you as a hero in the world, and I keep my care for me in my heart, not to mention that my father-lover is very serious! …… As long as you and your daughter are happy, and seeing you so happy every day, I will be content. It doesn't matter what my personal status is, just wait for my daughter to get married, I will take good care of you, and when my daughter gives birth, we can enjoy the joy of family together, how good? ”
"Born in troubled times, my concern is not only our family, I also have a large group of brothers, they are all my arms, without me, they will be chaotic, and even some people have to become bandits again, and some will be traitors, so I must run the General Chamber of Commerce and Seifudo well. Now it's not as good as the past, the economy is in recession, people's livelihood is withering, and the times are in turmoil. ”
"Yuntong, do you still have something on your mind, can you tell me?"
"Alas, it's not Song Mian yet. At the family banquet in Zhishan last night, I met a newcomer named Lu Li, who was the deputy head of the independent regiment of the 207 Brigade of the Xing'an East Garrison Army, because he had a life-saving grace for Zhishan's mother, he was recommended by Wang Zhiyou and Nalan Songhan to serve as the deputy chief police inspector and chief of the security section of the police department, and concurrently served as the chief inspector and trainer of the local police school. Our baby girl can't stand it, and when she got home last night, she didn't give up, and today I guess this class is not very good, so I don't have to worry about it. ”
"What about the young man? With Song Mian's eyes, it is naturally impossible to look away! ”
"Don't say it, I also inquired about Nalan, this person looks like needless to say, a talent, 34 years old, the word is cold, his hometown is in Chengde, he is in the leather business, in 1922, he went to Japan to study at the Naval Academy of Etajima, returned to China in 1925, and later joined Tang Yulin as a soldier, in 1927, he followed Tang Yulin from the Jingsui line to counterattack Yan Xishan, killed Tang Yulin's nephew Tang Zuochang in Xuanhua, Hebei, and later came to the Xing'an East Garrison, voted for Zhang Yisan, and has not yet become a family. It can be said that he is a high-achieving student, good at kung fu, full of body, righteous and awe-inspiring, a good young man, and my first impression is very good. But in this life, I am such a precious girl, and I have to arrange someone to go to Chengde to check the details. Moreover, I always did not want my future aunt to be an errand boy for the Japanese. ”
"Don't talk about people, aren't you also the deputy acting of the central bank?"
"Look at you, this mother and daughter haven't breathed yet, so they're heading towards their daughter."
"You, I'm speaking fairly."
"President Lu, the dishes are ready."
In "Mingyue Xuan" here, Lu Songmian was confused by all this, he couldn't imagine what kind of situation this was, less than a year after his mother's death, his dearest father got married, this little mother is only 5 years older than himself, what is this called? Thinking of this, she put aside Lu Li, who was thinking about it in her heart, and got up and was about to rush over to the next door to theorize.
Zha Chun'e hurriedly stopped her and whispered: "My aunt, you can be cautious, after all, it is your biological father, this is a restaurant, not a home, you have to save face for your father, don't you?" Don't be impulsive. ”
was so angry that Lu Songmian sat on the chair and cried, it was resentment, anger, grievance, injustice, and mixed feelings in his heart.
Zha Chun'e kept wiping her tears for Lu Songmian with a handkerchief, and they couldn't hear what intimate words the old and the young said over there.
After all, Lu Songmian has a higher education in the West, she calmed down, as if she had grown up a lot, but tears couldn't stop flowing.
