Half an hour later, when Tang Yuan closed this album, his fingers were trembling slightly, his face was as calm as water, his body exuded an indescribable sense of depression, and there was a trace of tyranny in his eyes, which was about to be difficult to hide.

Is this a photo album of 20th century East Asia?

This is clearly a collection of evidence of the Japanese invasion of China!

The album has more than 200 pages and more than 1,000 photos.

According to the photos, Tang Yuan can roughly guess the identity of the owner of this album, who is supposed to be a European journalist who lived in a China Shipping loan until 1937.

After the fall of Zhonghai in 1937, in troubled times, this reporter was coerced by the Japanese army, first from Zhonghai to Jinling, then from Jinling to Seoul, and finally to Yangcheng, which lasted a total of three years.

At first, most of the photos in the album were life photos and landscape photos, recording the daily life of the owner of the album, but after the Battle of Songhu, the content of these photos began to gradually change slightly, and finally there was only one theme left, that is, war.

After the Battle of Songhu, it was followed by the Battle of Jinling until the fall of Jinling.

In the past, Tang Yuan's impression of the Jinling Massacre only existed in the concept, he only knew that 300,000 compatriots died at the hands of the Japanese army in that massacre, and he only knew that it was an unforgettable national hatred and family hatred.

Today......

When he saw the photo in the album, he realized what a horrific atrocity it was!

In the entire album, there are more than 80 pages and more than 400 photos, which record the entire massacre almost completely, even if the photos are black and white, Tang Yuan can still clearly feel what kind of despair it is.

What kind of cruelty is that?

It's so cruel that I can't even put it into words.

In addition to the Jinling Massacre, this album also records many tragic events.

The Jiangyin Bloody Case, more than 20,000 people were killed; more than 10,000 people were killed in the Runzhou bloodbath; Gusu bloody case, more than 10,000 victims; the Xicheng Bloody Case, more than 15,000 people were killed; Jinling Bloody Case, more than 10,000 victims; the Guzi Bloody Case, where more than 10,000 people were killed; More than 10,000 people were killed in the salt desecration case......

It is no exaggeration to say that the line of attack of the Japanese army is the line of a massacre.

Blood stains the sky, and iniquity is monstrous.

Compared with the Jinling Massacre, many of these bloody cases are only written records in the long history, but in this album, all this is really recorded.

Underneath these photographs, there are many written records of the owner of the album, and it is not difficult to see how all this he witnessed has caused damage to his spirit and will.

In his words, he felt that in the past three years, he felt as if he had lived in a huge hell, and he was surrounded by demons in human skin, even more cruel, more despicable, and more bottomless than demons.

"Hoo ......"

After Tang Yuan gathered the photo album in front of him, he closed his eyes and took several deep breaths in succession, still unable to suppress the tumbling emotions in his heart.

The person in charge of the reading room looked at Tang Yuan not far away, feeling the low pressure emanating from Tang Yuan's body, and she felt a faint sense of fear in her heart.

"What's in that album?"

Lu Shuyuan also felt Tang Yuan's emotional changes, her face changed slightly, and she couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

The other party was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "After reading it, every Chinese will have content like Tang Dong......"

When Lu Shuyuan heard this, her pupils shrank suddenly.

"Mr. Lu, I don't think it's appropriate to put this album at auction."

Tang Yuan was silent for a long time, and he raised his head again to look at Lu Shuyuan, his eyes slightly sharp.

"Tang Dong, we are an auction house, someone consigns, as long as it is valuable, we will put it on the auction table, we always remain neutral, and do not mix any Z-rule factors and religious factors."

According to the name of this album, combined with the information revealed by her colleague just now, Lu Shuyuan roughly guessed the content of this album, she was also angry out of emotion, but out of reason she could only answer like this.

"You can not mix any political factors, you can not mix any religious factors, but you can't even mix moral factors, right?"

Tang Yuan knocked heavily on the table, and his voice was raised in vain: "Lu Shuyuan, come and see this album, do you think it is appropriate to put the photos of those compatriots who died on the auction table for people all over the world to bid?" ”

Lu Shuyuan was speechless, and all the staff in the library room were speechless, because they were all normal people with a conscience, and they all understood Tang Yuan's anger at the moment.

Tang Yuan felt that his emotions were faintly out of control, he calmed down a little, and after regaining his composure, he said to Lu Shuyuan again: "Mr. Lu, I hope you can reflect my opinion upwards, I know your rules, I don't require a direct meeting with the parties, you can communicate on your behalf, the other party can offer any bid, and the auction house can also take a normal commission." ”

"Okay......

"Tang Dong, I will give you feedback on your appeal as soon as possible."

Lu Shuyuan did not hesitate at all, and nodded directly.

"Tang Dong, you ...... It's time for you to borrow......"

The person in charge of the borrowing room saw that Tang Yuan's expression gradually calmed down, and she immediately reminded in a somewhat timid voice.

"Put away the album."

"Beauty, I hope you will keep this album in the next five days, you should know what it means for hundreds of millions of Chinese."

Tang Yuan slowly stood up, and he admonished the woman in front of him.

"Okay."

"Tang Dong, please rest assured."

The woman nodded and responded respectfully to Tang Yuan.

Tang Yuan didn't say anything more, he got up and walked around the table and walked towards the door of the lending room, and just as he was about to step out of the door of the lending room, he suddenly stopped, turned his head and asked the woman, "What were the expressions of those Japanese when they saw this album just now?" ”

Facing the gaze of Tang Yuan's deep eyes, the woman pursed her lips, said nothing, and finally slowly showed a smile.

Tang Yuan saw the smile on the woman's face, and he already knew everything in his heart, thinking that the group of Japanese people could still laugh when they saw this album, Tang Yuan really couldn't describe his anger at this moment.

"Let's go ......"

Tang Yuan bowed slightly to the woman, then pushed open the door with a calm face and walked out with his head held high......
