Occupied

When Ah Ci opened his eyes, what he saw was the faint sunlight outside the house. The morning light should have been beautiful, but in his eyes it was really not pleasant.

He thought he would have no sleep last night, but he couldn't endure the exhaustion of physical and mental comfort after the love. He fell asleep in Ah Chu's arms until now he smelled the refreshing breeze in the morning. It's time to wake up, it's time to come It will come, as if the night is always going to pass.

It's just that he himself still closed his eyes and didn't want to wake up. The night passed like this, and the circles of his eyes suddenly became slightly hot. Ah Ci sighed softly in his heart, "Brother, he is the most innocent person from the beginning to the end, and the one he can't let go of the most." people.

"morning."

Suddenly a soft kiss was placed on his lips, Ah Chu's voice softly smiled in his ear: "Are you tired last night?"

Ah Ci opened his eyes and looked at Ah Chu carefully. At this moment, he wished that his life would turn like a bubble, and everything would be like a dream.

It's a pity that it is different after all.

"I'm not tired." Ah Ci replied slowly.

Ah Chu touched Ah Ci's head, with a satisfied face, quickly put on his own clothes and got out of bed, then took Ah Ci's clean clothes from the cabinet and put them on the bedside, "Lie down for a while, I'll make breakfast. "

"En." Ah Ci responded, watching Ah Chu turn and leave without blinking.

Ah Chu never looked back, so he didn't see, and didn't know, a line of tears ran across the cheek of the young revolutionary soldier lying on the bed, and seeped into the pillow without a trace.

In the kitchen, Ah Chu poured salad dressing on his French tomato and apple salad, which was part of his breakfast.

While humming a few tunes that he didn't know where he heard them, he seemed to be in a very happy mood, and he didn't feel at all that he was about to go to the appointment of life and death in the afternoon.

"Boss" Liu Asi walked in with a black bag in his hand, "I have what you want." He stood respectfully and did not say that he spent a whole night searching for this item in the ghost market yesterday before finally finding what he was satisfied with. of.

"Okay?" Ah Chu raised his head and looked at Ah Si: "Thank you, put it on the table in my study, and then come down to have breakfast with us." After pouring the sauce, Ah Chu went to flip the baked bread The toast is filled with fried eggs and bacon.

"Yes, thank you boss." Ah Si replied.

"It's thanks to you that I can live till now." Ah Chu suddenly said, "I'm serious, you don't need to refuse."

Ah Si swallowed the words he just wanted to decline, "Yes." He nodded, and then walked towards Ah Chu's study with his things in his hands.

At the end, Ah Chu put the milk on the stove, and what Liu Ah Si held in his hand was the bulletproof vest that he specially told Ah Si to find in person. It was lined with natural fiber fabric and equipped with a body armor made of steel plates. Coupled with the thick silk surface, it was produced in the United States and saved the lives of countless generals who went to the battlefield during the First World War.

With that thing, the probability of coming back alive in the afternoon can be increased by about 15.00%.

At the beginning of his career, he never fought unprepared battles.

"Secretary Yu." A Ci, who was ordered to go secretly to No. 32 Xiaoshitou Hutong with Yu Xiaojiang, finally stopped on the brick bridge with bluestone slabs, "You go home and wait for me, I will be back."

Yu Xiaojiang said solemnly: "Where are you going?"

"Go and say goodbye to my elder brother." Ah Ci looked into Yu Xiaojiang's eyes.

"Didn't you just leave there this morning?" (Gao Neng... Sister Yu, do you want to say that you slept there last night)

"But I have to go once, maybe I will never see you again in the future."

"Ah Ci!" Yu Xiaojiang and Yang Muci have been together for many years. They are companions, comrades-in-arms and confidants. It is impossible to say that she does not love Ah Ci, but the difference between her and Yashu and Li Qinhong is that , she knows restraint, she transforms that affection into companionship and care.

She thought that this time she would be able to accompany her for a long time, but at this moment, Ah Ci's eyes told her that she was wrong, completely wrong.

Yu Xiaojiang yelled angrily, "Ah Ci, can you..."

Her words choked in her throat, Yang Muci is a person who can never let go of his feelings, especially for those he loves.

To make Yang Muchi fall in love with him is an extraordinary person.

His affection for others far outweighs his cherishing of his own life, so what reason does she have to stop him?

To him, she was nothing.

"Can you come back sooner?" In the end, her anger and pain turned into helplessness, accompanied by panic.

"I will." Ah Ci bit his lower lip.

"I understand your heart, I understand very well, I have no right to stop you, but I must remind you that when you take all the responsibilities on your shoulders, you also have to be responsible for yourself, there are many people, many things They all need you."

Yu Xiaojiang's face was pale, and she almost wanted to cry, but she didn't know what identity she could use to grieve for Ah Ci, she could only hope that Ah Ci could listen to her, even if she only heard one word...

"Forgive me." Ah Ci said without hesitation.

Yu Xiaojiang's voice gradually weakened, she looked at Ah Ci's face for a long time, "Ah Ci, remember... our house is in the small attic with blue sheets, I will wait for you to come back."

There were tears in Ah Ci's eyes, it was not the sadness of parting, but the touch of Yu Xiaojiang's understanding of his behavior, "I promise you, I will try to come back."

Ah Ci nodded, ready to turn around and leave, Yu Xiaojiang, my superior, my comrade-in-arms, I'm sorry...

I understand that my behavior does not conform to the quality of a soldier, but I can't go against my heart.

Please forgive Aji's waywardness.

"Ah Ci..."

The moment Ah Ci turned around, Yu Xiaojiang's emotions finally almost collapsed. She desperately grabbed Ah Ci's arm to hold him, and threw herself into his chest. For the first time, her tears flowed unscrupulously. I haven't cried like this for many years, and I haven't been so bitter...

"Do you really think I don't understand?" (Understand? Girl, what do you understand?)

Ah Ci's heart was infected with sorrow, he could no longer hide his emotions in front of this woman, the suitcase in his hand fell to the ground, he slowly hugged Yu Xiaojiang in his arms, he didn't know if he was Soothe her or comfort yourself.

I'm sorry, Ah Ci silently apologized in his heart.

Yu Xiaojiang hugged Ah Ci tightly, and even hoped that he would never let this man leave again in this life.

Yet eventually she heard him say, "I'm going, take care."

From the very beginning, she knew that she could not influence Ah Ci's choice.

She watched Ah Ci's back disappearing at the end of the street corner, she watched helplessly, as if it was the last time in her life.

Ah Chuzai carefully put on a brand new brand-name suit, dressed neatly from the inside to the outside, and then put a pillar of fragrance on the parents' row in the room.

The hour hand pointed to [-]:[-] in the afternoon, and he was going to Xu Yuzhen's Hongmen banquet.

"Big brother!"

Just as he was about to go out, Ah Ci rushed in, his eyes flustered, and he was relieved when he saw that he was still standing in the room.

"Ah Ci?" Ah Chu was a little surprised, "Why haven't you left yet?"

He remembered that when Ah Ci went out in the morning, he said that he was ordered to lurk there. He originally thought about finding the place where Ah Ci was hiding after the end of the day, but he didn't expect Ah Ci to turn back now.

"I'm here to say goodbye to Big Brother..." Ah Ci hesitated to speak, "Brother, can you..."

"Don't worry about me." Ah Chu was touched by the anxiety of the younger brother, "I will promise to come back alive to see you, how about it?"

"Brother, I..." Ah-Chu lingered the phrase "I'll go for you" several times, but he still couldn't say it. He knew that Ah Chu's personality would never allow him to take risks for him.

Of course, in fact, he himself is the same.

"Heh...Brother, my house is in the attic of the small stone alley, if you..." He smiled uncontrollably, "Brother, if you have something to do, you can come to my house to take shelter from the wind and rain."

"Silly brother." Ah Chu felt good in his heart, but he was still brave in his mouth. He opened his arms and hugged Ah Ci in his arms, "Don't worry, big brother is fine. Big brother promised you that he will come back alive, so he will not let me Die, I..."

Before he finished speaking, he felt a sudden pain in the back of his neck, and then he didn't know anything.

A drop of tear slowly fell from Ah Ci's eyes to Ah Chu's back, seeping into his clothes, "Forgive me, brother, I can't let you go."

One thirty.

Ah Ci exchanged clothes with Ah Chu who was unconscious at the fastest speed. When he took off Ah Chu's clothes, there was a black silk vest wrapped in a hard plate that looked like a metal sheet. Ah Ci didn't know what it was. But time didn't allow him to think too much, so he simply swapped them all together. (Can't help HC, when I watched the drama, I felt that even the shirt and pants were changed ahhh)

Then put Ah Chu down on the sofa, and even carefully covered him with his long windbreaker to prevent him from catching cold. Finally, Ah Ci put a letter written after careful consideration for a long time on the glass coffee table.

forty past one.

Ah Ci finally confirmed his hairstyle, stared at Ah Chu for a few seconds, then slowly lowered his head and pressed a kiss on the unconscious Ah Chu's cheek, "Goodbye, big brother."

Close the door, take a step, step into the car, "Let's go."

He gave instructions to Liu Ah Si who was waiting in the car.

Let's go, if one must die, I hope the one who dies is me.

Let's go, forgive me for my last willfulness. I said that I never want a loved one to die in front of my eyes. I'm sorry, big brother, forgive me.

........................................................................

When Ah Chu woke up, it happened that the afternoon sun was shining all over the floor.

He heard the chime clock strike exactly four times, and it was four o'clock...

A golden halo spread out in front of his eyes, with blurred outlines.

It was as if everything melted into it and became blank.The back of his head hurt so badly that he almost forgot where he was...forgot what he was doing, forgot who he was...

"Aci!"

After that moment of blankness, he finally remembered the most important thing, Ah Ci!A times!A times!

Just now he was saying goodbye to his younger brother Yang Muci, just now he...

But it's four o'clock now!

The momentary panic made him jump up, "Ah Ci!"

He yelled in panic, but no one in the room answered. The room was still the same as the sunny room, but he was the only one.

And he was wearing the clothes of his twin brother Yang Muci!

He was covered with the black windbreaker that his younger brother always wore, and then his own clothes were gone... The windbreaker in his hands was always warm because it was covering him all the time.

That's not knowing whose body temperature it belongs to.

Ah Chu opened his mouth, and his brain, which understood all the situations, thought of countless possibilities, all of which terrified him beyond belief.

Then it was ridiculous that his panic was immediately verified by the letters neatly placed on the coffee table in front of him a moment later.

dear brother:

When you read this letter, I have already gone to the Japanese teahouse for your parents and sister.I want to ask Xu Yuzhen for my blood debt back home.I know that there are many bad things going on, and I may never see you again in this life. I hope that my elder brother will take care of his health and don't be overly sad.Ah Ci was not filial, he recognized his father as a thief since he was a child, he was good at his enemies, he had a reckless personality, he bumped into my elder brother several times, but my elder brother never gave up, he helped me several times and rescued me from danger.Ah Ci is grateful in his heart, and dare not forget his kindness.Ah Ci went to die for his country and had a very abrupt request.I want you to live on my behalf.I am an underground party of the CCP, and my upline is my nominal wife, Yu Xiaojiang.My family lives in the attic at No. 32 Xiaoshi Hutong.In order to implement the latent plan, the Military Control Bureau originally planned that I would replace the eldest brother to lurk in Shanghai and wait for an opportunity.Now that my soul has returned to Huangquan, I hope that my elder brother will complete this unfinished task instead of me, and continue to lurk in the heart of the enemy.Struggle to resist Japan and build our new China.Of course, you can also choose to leave Shanghai and live your own life.When the Anti-Japanese War is won, you must come back.Please bury my younger brother's clothes with the Yang family ancestor's grave.My brother died in Huangquan to thank my brother.No matter which path you choose, you will always be my beloved family and my big brother.Take care of yourself.

Brother Ah Ci worships

In just a few minutes, Ah Chu felt that he was completely taken out of time. He tried his best and tried to maintain calm, but his eyes were completely red.

After coming here for a while, he tremblingly took out the lighter and lit the letter in his hand, watching it disappear bit by bit in front of him, and finally turned into ashes, at least nothing was left, and disappeared along with the letter What's more, he Yang Muchu's rationality.Yang Muci!Ah Chu bit his lip tightly, biting off a drop of blood mixed in his tears...

He will never forget his brother's face, his voice, everything about him.Because at this moment he has decided to live as his brother, as long as he lives he will think of the pain of losing his brother, look in the mirror and remember that there will never be the same face smiling at him again.

he does not want!

he does not want!

Tears had already flowed down unknowingly and slipped into the neckline. When he reached in to wipe it, he suddenly remembered something.

The life-saving body armor he asked Ah Si to prepare was also worn away by Ah Ci.Speaking of which, as long as he was not headshot, as long as he was not killed by a bomb, Ah Ci should not have lost his life!

will not die!This is the bottom line of his extravagant expectations.

No matter what it turned into, he wanted him to live, and Ah Ci to live.

Ah Ci shook the hand holding the handle of the knife violently, penetrating his finger bones.

He sealed his throat with a knife, and the blood spattered three feet.

"You are Yang Muchu, not Yang Muchu!" Xu Yuzhen didn't rest in peace.

Ah Ci sneered, and finally this woman who had been pretending to be his mother for more than twenty years got what she deserved.

The blood feud has been avenged, and the family hatred has been washed away.

Next... Ah Ci raised his head coldly, watching those Xu Yuzhen's men coming with guns. To deal with those people, although his skill is a hard fight, it is not to be feared, but today, the purpose of his coming It's not about getting out alive.

Ah Ci smiled lightly, stood up straight and threw the blood-stained long knife on the ground. He had no gun on his body, no knife in his hand, and he stood tall, facing the oncoming enemies.

"Bang bang bang" the enemy's gun rang out, and the severe pain from being hit by bullets in many places on his body made Ah Ci almost breathless and unable to stand. His knees were slightly bent, but he still tried his best to stand upright.

He was covered in blood, his eyes were smiling, calm, and radiant like a flame!

At this moment, his life was burning like fire.

This fire will eventually burn out the heinous crimes committed by the Japanese imperialists in China!

The gunshots continued, Ah Ci had no intention of evading at all, he was breathing rapidly, and the pain all over his body was nothing.

Blood was choked in his throat, and when those people thought there was no danger and were about to come to collect the body, Ah Ci tried his best to find a grenade from the waistband of his trousers.

At this moment, the pain in Ah Ci's whole body has exceeded the limit, as if the pain is no longer severe, and the smile on the corners of his eyes and brows makes him look not embarrassed...

It was the last thing he wanted to do, to be smashed to pieces!

From now on, there will only be one Yang Muchu left in this world, and there will be only one left, so the warlords will think it is Yang Muchu pretending to be Yang Muchu!That way, his eldest brother would no longer be in danger.

I was really willful.

He couldn't help chuckling, and pulled the grenade away...

The remaining members of the Black Dragon Society uttered horrified curses, but those voices were already very indistinct in Ah Ci's ears.

He smiled one last time, waiting for the bomb in his hand to end it all...

........................................................................

Liu Ahsi has been in a state of anxiety ever since the person who entered the Japanese teahouse was the second master and not his boss. Although the second master ordered him not to follow in and let him leave, he still secretly observed at the door of the Japanese teahouse. After waiting for a while and smoking two cigarettes, there was no movement inside.

The quieter he was, the more flustered he was. For the first time in his life, Liu Ah Si didn't know whether he should obey the orders. The order he got from Deputy Director Han was to follow all orders from the boss, but the second master...

He felt that the eyes of the second master looking at the Japanese tea room were obviously looking at death as if he were at home. Ah Si anxiously wanted to light the third cigarette, but accidentally burned the match, his fingers trembled, and the cigarette fell on the mud floor. .

"Damn it!" Liu Ah Si became irritated, no matter what, go and have a look first.

"Bang bang bang" When Liu Asi stepped into the Japanese tea room, the first thing he heard was gunshots, not good!

His heart tightened, and he hurried inside, he had already decided to ignore Second Master's orders, if the boss knew what happened to Second Master, the consequences...

Liu Ah Si selfishly thought that his own boss valued this baby brother more than anything else, "Second Master!"

As a result, when Liu Ahsi rushed in, he saw Yang Muci covered in blood, and Liu Ahsi, who was always calm and composed, was almost frightened out of his wits.

At this moment, Ah Ci took out the grenade hanging from his waist!

"Second Lord, no!"

Liu Ah Si threw himself forward and did not have time to stop Ah Ci's behavior!

Seeing that the grenade was about to explode next to Yang Muchi, Liu Ah Si thought of a lightning flash, and in a hurry, he used the handle of the gun as a point of strength to throw the gun towards Ah Ci with all his strength!

With a sound of "Boom", the grenade exploded in the Japanese tea room, and the dust flew up. A thick gunpowder smoke tore through the air and jumped up before Liu Asi's eyes. The entire Japanese tea room was dismembered by this, and those who were inside were violently shocked. Smoke engulfs...

The huge impact made Liu Ahsi unsteady, and he had to support the stone bridge on one side, my God!

He finally understood the expression on the second master's face at the beginning, it was clearly that they wanted to die together here!

Liu Asi, who was as calm as ever, was beating wildly in his heart. He didn't know if the second master was knocked away from the most dangerous place by his forceful throw at this moment, even if he was far away from the center of the explosion, but he saw so many guns just now. Hit on Yang Muci, he is not a god, but if he can survive, it will be blessed by the Bodhisattva and a gift from heaven.

"Aci!"

There was a piercing cry from behind.

Liu Asi's heart sank, his first thought was... It's over, the boss...

So Liu Ahsi saw his boss rushing over with red eyes: "Ah Ci!"

Only a lunatic would not be afraid of the burning flames rushing in, but his boss was just such a lunatic.

"Let me in, let me in, don't stop me!"

Of course Liu Ah Si didn't dare to stop his boss. The one holding Ah Chu across the waist was Xia Yuechun, who had just come to the bout after blowing up the germ bomb. At the sound of the explosion, when I ran over, I saw that this lunatic named Yang Muchu was rushing into the fire.

"My brother is inside!" Ah Chu roared like a wounded beast.

"Ah Chu, Ah Chu, please calm down." Xia Yuechun already fully understood all the situation. In fact, he had a premonition when Ah Ci told him that I would go for my elder brother, but he still chose to believe a A fighter of communism has the concept of putting everyone first and then the small family. Maybe he really underestimated the importance Ah Ci attaches to emotional aspects.

Ah Chu's eyes were full of tears, Xia Yuechun was almost unable to hold him back, and he took him a few steps forward, "You let me calm down? My brother is inside, you tell me to calm down? Xia Yuechun! I don't care about you What communist ideals, I don’t care about the righteousness of the country, what does the rise and fall of the world have to do with me? What do I have to do with the loss of life! I only want my brother to live! Live!”

Xia Yuechun was just desperately trying to hold Ah Chu back, he had no way to reason with Ah Chu anymore, he could only compromise and say, "It's useless for you to go in with such a big fire!"

"It's better to be useless than to watch here. If my brother dies, I'll burn him inside! If my brother lives, I'll drag him back from Hades' hand!" Ah Chu turned his head and used his bloodshot He stared at Xia Yuechun with his eyes: "Get out of the way! Xia Yuechun, if you stand in front of me, be careful that you have nothing to do with my brother for so many years!"

Ah Chu has always been calm and has a great sense of humor. Even Xia Yuechun, who has been a friend for many years, has never seen him like this.

Moreover, he still used this vicious tone and tone, his eyes sparkled, as if his personality had changed. He took out a handkerchief from his pocket and soaked it in the pond next to him.

"Step aside."

"Ah Chu..."

"Step aside!"

"Be careful……"

Xia Yuechun knew that he couldn't stop him, so he could only get out of the way, and changed the blocking words into a kind reminder.

He could only let go of his hand. He saw that Ah Chu's red eyes were filled with almost hysterical anger and patience, and most of them were almost desperate pain and sorrow. The moment he saw these eyes, he knew that he could not stop Ah Chu. .

Nothing can stop it, not to mention people can't, even God... can't...

Running towards the fire, Ah Chu's heart ached so much, he remembered the fire in Chunhe Hospital, he watched the fire engulfed his sister, and he was stopped at the door to watch all this happen.

no!This time, say nothing!

Even if he died, he would die with Ah Ci.

To die together by fate is not to live together in vain.

"Boss, wait." Ah Si dipped his suit in the river, picked it up, stepped forward and put it on Ah Chu, "I'll go with you."

Ah Chu nodded, turned around and disappeared into the fire scene.

Just as Ah Si was about to jump in, he was stopped by Yue Chun behind him.

"Take it." What Yuechun handed over was his own coat, which was also soaked through.

There seemed to be some expression on Ah Si's expressionless face. He nodded, put on his clothes, and jumped into the raging flames.

The fire spread arrogantly, which cannot be solved by ordinary fire fighting methods. Before waiting for the arrival of police reinforcements, there was nothing to do.

Even though he covered his mouth and nose with a wet handkerchief and was wearing soaked clothes, it was still difficult for people to move even an inch in such a ferocious fire.

"Ah Ci!—Ah Ci!"

He stepped on the shattered limbs and broke out in a cold sweat. He almost went crazy and cried while hugging those limbs. When he looked down, he realized that those limbs were definitely not Ah Ci.

He is too familiar with Ah Ci.

Live to see people, die to see corpses.

Where exactly is his Aci, where is it?

He didn't want to admit that this pile of mutilated human remains was his most concerned and beloved brother.

"Boss! Front!"

Ah Si looked around, his eyes were filled with the redness of flames, he remembered that there should be two pillars here before the fire, but now he could only see one.

The other one had already collapsed to the ground due to the force of the explosion, but looking forward, it seemed that something was still under the pillar.

It was faintly gray, so he couldn't see clearly, but he clearly remembered that the second master was wearing the boss's gray suit today.

"Ah Ci!!!"

In Ah Chu's eyes, when encountering matters related to Ah Ci, any impossible becomes possible.The distance was not long, but the eyesight in the fire field could not reach this level of recognition, but Ah Chu was completely sure that the gray mass was Ah Ci.

Facts have proved that Ah Si's guess and Ah Chu's judgment are correct.When the two came to the same place, they began to work together to lift the collapsed pillar.

It wasn't too heavy, and the two of them moved the pillar with a little effort.

Ah Ci fell straight to the ground, motionless, his face covered with black dust and bright red blood.

Ah Chu suddenly picked him up, seeing the blood all over his body, he couldn't count the number of shots.

His head just felt like it was going to explode, he was at a loss, he didn't even know what he was supposed to do.

"Boss, still breathing."

Ah Si put his fingers in front of Ah Ci's nose, showing a burst of joy.

Yes, what can you see?I was really terrified.Ah Chu immediately pinched Ah Ci's wrist, looking for the beating pulse.

No, no, my heart has already reached my throat.

Fumbling frantically, finally, he felt a slight beating, forced himself to calm down, and then stretched out his hand to touch the artery in his neck.

Once, twice, three times, the beating is very weak, but it is indeed beating.

"He's still alive!"

Ah Chu's eyes suddenly lit up, like a child who has eaten candy, almost jumping up excitedly.

Seeing that Ah Chu lifted Ah Ci's limp body on his back, Ah Si hurriedly covered Ah Ci's body with the clothes that the boss put on.

The two masters and servants already understood each other, respected and obeyed each other.

They have similarities, they are confident, capable, and seem fearless at all times.

It is not the first time that they have been born and died together, but this time, it is really special.Not only was Ah Chu anxious, but even Ah Si felt that the uneasiness in his heart was so strong.

The moment he rushed out of the fire, the red in front of his eyes turned into white.

Ah Chu felt a little powerless, and his staggering body was supported by Ah Si.Shaking his hand, he signaled that he was fine. The choking smoke in the fire made him speechless. Ah Chu mustered up all his energy and uttered a few words, "Send...to...hospital."

The medical staff called by Yuechun had already taken Ah Ci and sent him to the ambulance for first aid with oxygen.

Ah Chu, who was coughing violently due to choking, couldn't straighten up. If there wasn't a tree trunk beside him to support him, he might have fallen down on the spot.

"Ah Chu, are you alright?"

Yue Chun frowned and reached out to pat his back.

"Save... save... Ah Ci..."

Ah Chu's voice was close to hoarse, and it felt like he was about to lose his voice.

"Okay, don't worry, the people in the ambulance are doing emergency rescue. I'll go there right away and take him back to the hospital. Director Han's car will arrive soon. You and his car will come to the hospital. Don't worry."

"Cough-cough-"

Unable to speak, I had to nod instead, listening to the roar of the ambulance away.

Ah Chu today, is the first time to know, the feeling of fear.

He has also lost, but he has never been afraid of losing.

But today, he really felt the fear, the sadness when he read the letter, the fear when he saw the raging flames, the horror when he stepped on those stumps, and the feeling that he couldn't touch Ah. A sense of desperation at every pulse.
