Song Yuanchao was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously took two steps back.

In the middle of the night, an unfamiliar 212 stopped in front of him, and it was still at the Chuncheng Railway Station, which was unfamiliar with his life, which could not help but make Song Yuanchao vigilant.

For a while, Song Yuanchao was even ready to run away, and the direction of running was naturally the railway station, and there were staff and security personnel at the station, so they could ask for help.

But at this time, one end of the driver's cab of the 212 window was rolled down, and a middle-aged man poked his head out of it and asked Song Yuanchao: "May I ask you are Comrade Song Yuanchao from Yanjing, right?" ”

"I am, are you ......?" Song Yuanchao was stunned for a moment, could it be that Lin Daoyuan was the one who picked him up through his relationship? But I didn't hear Lin Daoyuan mention it before I set off.

"My surname is Kang, you can call me Lao Kang, it's very late, you just came here and you are not familiar with it, and it is not safe outside at night now, Secretary Wang specially asked me to pick you up and take you to the guest house."

"Secretary Wang?" Song Yuanchao was stunned for a moment, and immediately remembered Comrade Wang, who had been accompanying Jiang Lao, and couldn't help but ask tentatively: "The Secretary Wang you are talking about is the ...... next to Jiang Lao?" ”

"That's right, it's Secretary Jiang's secretary, Secretary Wang." Lao Kang nodded, this time Song Yuanchao was relieved, since it was arranged by Comrade Wang, it must be what Jiang Lao meant, listening to Lao Kang's words, Jiang Lao is still a secretary, but Song Yuanchao doesn't care, who is the other party, what position is it, and what does it have to do with him?

After saying thank you, Song Yuanchao, who was carrying his luggage, got into the car, and after he sat down, Lao Kang drove into the darkness with one foot on the accelerator, about ten minutes later, 212 drove into a gate, and drove forward a hundred meters along the road in the door before coming to a guest house, this guest house looks a little different from an ordinary guest house, but it is dark Song Yuanchao can't see the sign hanging outside.

Lao Kang parked the car at the door and helped Song Yuanchao carry his luggage and walk towards the guest house. The person on duty at the guest house knew Lao Kang, and when he heard the footsteps, he looked up and saw that he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, Lao Kang stepped forward and explained a few words to the other party, the other party smiled and nodded, and then didn't ask Song Yuanchao for a letter of introduction or anything, and directly opened a room for him.

Song Yuanchao's room is at the east end of the corridor on the second floor, the room faces south, is a one-bedroom and one-hall layout, although the layout inside is not as high-end as the star hotels of later generations, but it is very generous and clean.

What's more, there are not only telephones and TVs in the room, but also independent bathroom facilities, which is extremely rare in ordinary guest houses, after entering the room, the people in the guest house asked Song Yuanchao if he was satisfied with this room, Song Yuanchao was of course very satisfied, and took the initiative to thank the other party, and at the same time asked the other party's name and position, only to know that this man who is not amazing is the director of the guest house.

Sent two bottles of hot water to Song Yuanchao, Director Jiao asked Song Yuanchao what else he needed, if he was hungry, there was a small kitchen in the guest house, although the chef was off work now, but it would not be a problem to lay an egg on Song Yuanchao's next bowl of noodles.

In this regard, Song Yuanchao expressed his gratitude and rejected the other party's kindness, all this has been beyond his expectations, and it is rare for guest houses with such conditions to be located in Huhai and Yan Kyoto.

After sending off the driver Lao Kang and Director Jiao, Song Yuanchao washed hastily and fell asleep on the bed for a while. This way can make him tired, the key is that he is too tired to chat with Jiang Lao, and now when he arrives at the guest house, he snores after a few seconds when his head hits the pillow.

The next day, Song Yuanchao woke up in a piece of sunshine and birdsong, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the sunlight outside the window happened to be sprinkled on his body, and the outside was green, and many birds were chirping happily in the forest, and the chirping was not lively.

Looking at the time, it was already seven o'clock in the morning, a dreamless night, and the young body was rejuvenated.

Song Yuanchao got up and washed up, opened the door and went downstairs, and when he arrived downstairs, he happened to meet Director Jiao last night.

"Comrade Song, you're early, you're up? How did you sleep? Director Jiao greeted Song Yuanchao with a smile.

"You are already the director, you are so busy so early? I remember you were on duty last night, right? ”

"Hehe, that's how we do service work, and we've long been used to it." Director Jiao said with a smile, and then said, "By the way, Comrade Song, this used to be a small restaurant, and now there is breakfast, you can go there to eat some." ”

"Thank you, by the way, I haven't registered for the night yesterday, and the other room money and deposit are ......." Without waiting for Song Yuanchao to finish speaking, Director Jiao waved his hand and said with a smile: "Comrade Song, you don't need these, you are a guest sent by Lao Kang, and Lao Kang told me, you live This is specially explained by Secretary Wang, so you can just stay, our guest house arranges three meals a day I will tell you, six to eight o'clock in the morning is the breakfast time, the lunch time is from eleven to half past twelve, and the dinner is from six o'clock in the evening to eight o'clock. ”

"You can eat in a small restaurant during these time periods, or you can go out to eat by yourself, if you need a banquet, you can also tell me in advance, I will arrange it, but the cost ......of the banquet cannot be waived, you have to pay for it yourself."

thanked Director Jiao, but Song Yuanchao still insisted on paying for the accommodation himself. He and Jiang Lao and Secretary Wang just met on the road, although he guessed Jiang Lao's identity is not simple, but Song Yuanchao is a person who doesn't like to owe favors, not to mention that the other party can arrange himself in this guest house has already helped a lot, and this is not Song Yuanchao's character.

And Song Yuanchao is not short of money, and considering that he may have to live here for a long time, it is more appropriate to pay for it himself.

Seeing that Song Yuanchao was so persistent, Director Jiao was no longer reluctant, and personally took him to register and collect the accommodation deposit. After completing the formalities, Director Jiao took him directly to the small restaurant for dinner.

Song Yuanchao had a simple breakfast in the small restaurant, went upstairs to get something after breakfast, and called Lin Yan in the room by the way, telling Lin Yan that he had arrived.

After a brief chat on the phone, he hung up the phone, Song Yuanchao went downstairs and asked Director Jiao for directions, and then left the guest house.

When he got out of the guest house, Song Yuanchao noticed the signboard of the guest house that he didn't see clearly last night, and then he saw that there was actually a sign of the Provincial Party Committee Guest House hanging outside the guest house, and when he saw this sign, Song Yuanchao was slightly stunned.

Before going out, Song Yuanchao specially asked Director Jiao for a map of Zhang Chuncheng, and Song Yuanchao came to Chuncheng in later generations, but the current Spring City is very different from the Spring City in later generations, except for some old alleys and old streets, many places are different.

As the provincial capital of Southwest Province, Chuncheng is naturally a big city, but it is still inferior to cities like Huhai and Yanjing.

Coupled with the current wartime reasons in the southwest, many soldiers and military vehicles in military uniforms can be seen passing by in Chuncheng now, and there are also ordinary people and ordinary people wearing ethnic minority costumes on the road.

The military hospital was some way away from the guest house, and after Song Yuanchao left the guest house, he took a bus at the bus stop opposite, changed buses halfway, and it took nearly an hour to find a place.

When he arrived at the place, he could see the military hospital building not far away, Song Yuanchao walked towards it quickly, and was directly stopped by the guards as soon as he arrived at the door.

"Comrade, please show your ID!" The guard was a very young soldier, carrying a Type 5 or 6 automatic rifle, with a green face, and it looked like he had not been a soldier for long.

Song Yuanchao stopped, took out his student ID card and letter of introduction from his pocket and handed them over, and explained at the same time: "Hello comrade, I am here to visit the patient, I am from Yanjing, this is my ID and letter of introduction. ”

The guard took the student ID card and the letter of introduction and looked at it, he first looked at the student ID, and was slightly surprised when he saw that it was Yenching University, and then carefully opened and checked the photo and steel seal on it, as well as Song Yuanchao's appearance.

After checking that it was correct, the guard looked at the letter of introduction and the steel seal on the letter of introduction, and the issuing unit, and after these were all right, the guard raised his hand and signaled to Song Yuanchao: "Please come here with me to register." ”

"Okay, thank you." Song Yuanchao thanked him, followed the young guard to the guard room to do the registration, and after the registration, he retrieved the student ID card and the letter of introduction, and asked the direction of the ward building, and thanked the other party again and walked towards the inside of the hospital.

The military hospital is not small, with one main building and four annex buildings, in addition to a number of attached complexes.

Walking all the way in the hospital, many are soldiers in military uniforms, or doctors and nurses in white coats outside military uniforms, Song Yuanchao arrived in front of the No. 2 auxiliary building, he came to find someone to ask, if it is right, Lin Yuhang should be in this building, entered the building, Song Yuanchao looked at the situation on the next floor, did not see the familiar service desk in the future, there were only a few doctors, nurses and patients walking around in the building, Song Yuanchao thought about it and walked straight to the staircase, just turned the corner in front and a person who came in a hurry almost collided together.

This came down without warning, which startled Song Yuanchao, and Song Yuanchao hurriedly flashed to the side, but he didn't hit it directly.

"How are you?"

When I looked closely, it was actually someone I knew, and this person was Luo Yang's sister Rowling.

Standing in front of her, Rowling was much darker and thinner than the last time they met, wearing a military uniform with four pockets, a military hat, long hair coiled in the brim, and an enamel basin in her hand, in which a few clothes seemed to be washed, and a slightly haggard face with a sad face.

"Are you ......?" Luo Lin didn't recognize Song Yuanchao at once, after all, they had only met once, but they felt that Song Yuanchao was very familiar.

"Song Yuanchao, the object of the swallow, we have met once in Lao Mo."

"Ahh I remember! Rowling was pleasantly surprised.

"Why are you here?"

"I've been in Spring City for a long time, and our regiment came to the front line to offer condolences after the last time we met Lao Mo."

"It's been more than half a year since the last time, and you've been here?"

"Of course not, most of the time is on the front line, Spring City is the big rear, and Spring City just came back with the regiment to repair a few days ago. Moreover, we will soon return after staying in Spring City for a few days this time, and then comrades from the art troupes of other military regions will take over our work, so our mission this time is considered to be completed. ”

Thinkers

So that's the case, Song Yuanchao suddenly realized, no wonder Rowling has lost a lot of weight, it seems that the front line is indeed hard, even if they are literary and artistic workers.

"Song Yuanchao, you came alone?"

"yes, just arrived yesterday." Song Yuanchao nodded, and then asked Rowling, "Are you here...... Is it your comrade-in-arms who is hospitalized? ”

"No, it's a friend who is hospitalized, and I have time to come and take care ......of him these days." Speaking of this, Rowling suddenly seemed to remember something, looked at Song Yuanchao with wide eyes, and asked suspiciously after a while: "I said Song Yuanchao, you won't come to visit Lin Yuhang this time, right?" ”
