Beacon 1937

Night of the 1937th of January [-]

Koji Ito grew up in Shanghai and made great contributions during the Battle of Songhu. Therefore, his application for the garrison in Shanghai was both logical and reasonable, and he was approved without a doubt.

He originally planned to continue marching, hoping that the war would end soon, but suddenly changed his mind to stay in Shanghai, because there was a reason for wanting to stay here.

No, not a reason.

Every time Ivan Abel showed a different expression because of him, Koji Ito couldn't help feeling...

It turns out that my heart can still be touched by a certain event or a certain person, and it turns out that I am still alive.

So he chose to stay in Shanghai.

However, that night, Endo Shinya suddenly rushed into his office and said anxiously, "Master, that doctor wants to leave Shanghai secretly."

Koji Ito withdrew surveillance from the clinic after American doctors discovered that bugs had been installed in the clinic and angrily yelled at them.He did remove everyone except Shinya Endo.

Koji Ito had long expected that Ivan Abel would try his best to leave Shanghai and join the Chinese army.Unexpectedly, when the expected news really reached his ears, he stood up abruptly, unable to tell what it was like, as if all kinds of emotions were bursting out at the same time, but he only recognized the two words "anger". words.

Without saying a word, he put on his military cap and walked quickly outside the door: "Call Tian Zhong, you are following in secret."

"Yes!" Endo Shinya turned around and disappeared.

After getting in the car, Koji Ito immediately ordered the soldiers to rush to the checkpoint as quickly as possible.His face was as cold as ice, and Tanaka Hideo, who was sitting in the passenger seat, dared to secretly look at the officer's expression from the rearview mirror, and didn't dare to ask a word at all.

The driving soldier stepped on the gas pedal to the bottom.He rarely saw Ito Dazuo showing such an expression, but every time he saw someone would be unlucky, so he didn't dare to have any hesitation at such a time with his courage.

The car rushed all the way to the checkpoint, overtook the convoy in front of it in a short while, and stopped directly in front of the sentry station.

When the short man with a mustache saw Koji Ito stepping out of the car, he trembled all over: "I... Ito Dasa... what wind brought you here."

"Bastard! Who told you to let me go?" Hideichi Tanaka was able to stay by Koji Ito's side for so long, naturally because he knew how to read words and emotions, so he slapped the major on the face before the officer.

"This... is wrong, Commander, this is Mr. Frank Eliard's caravan, and he has submitted all the travel permits."

At this moment, Frank, the person in the conversation, came here quickly, and there were several people behind him.

"Master Ito!" The French nobleman was very surprised when he saw Koji Ito, "Mr. Mr. Ito, I don't know what happened to my caravan? I can show all the permits to prove that the convoy has not violated any regulations."

Hearing this, the Japanese military officer laughed mockingly: "Mr. Eliade, I can pretend that I don't know some things, but you promised to help us prevent Aiwen Abel from leaving Shanghai. Are you trying to renege on your promise?"

"What? I don't understand what you're talking about! Ivan is staying well in the clinic in the French Concession, what are you talking about now..." Suddenly, Frank's voice stopped abruptly, and he turned his head to look at the motorcade in disbelief.

"It seems that you don't know that your best friend is in one of the cars now. Also, if you know that Aiwen Abel is mixed in the convoy and wants to leave Shanghai, you don't need me to come forward." Koji Ito hooked The corner of his mouth smiled slightly, but there was no smile in those gloomy eyes, "In this case, I have to take you as a hostage."

"What are you doing?" Frank snapped loudly.

With a look, the surrounding soldiers instantly surrounded Frank and the others.

Ito Koji did not continue to pay attention to the Frenchman, but took a loudspeaker and said loudly in English: "Ivan Abel! I know you are in one of the cars! As I said, except for returning to the United States, you You can’t leave Shanghai! I’m not joking, but you take my words as a joke! I’ll give you one last chance, if you’re willing to get out of the car, I’ll order the entire convoy to leave Shanghai! I’ll give you [-] seconds, if If you don't get out of the car, we will thoroughly search all vehicles and kill your friend on the spot...Frank Eliade!"

Hearing this, Frank stared at him in shock.

Koji Ito spoke English, so the only ones who could understand him were the French nobleman and... the doctor hidden in the convoy.He wanted to let the American know that without the consent of Koji Ito, it was impossible to leave Shanghai.

...Only I can let you go, Alvin Abel.

"[-]!"

"[-]!"

How long will you wait for me to count?Or...are you willing to sacrifice your friends and a team of people in order to reunite with someone in China?

"[-]!"

"[-]!"

"[-]!"

"[-]!"

No!You're bound to get off because you're Alvin Abel.Would rather sacrifice one's own freedom for the lives of all, that is Alvin Abel.

"[-]!"

"!"

When "[-]" was about to be blurted out, a person suddenly jumped off a truck.He was dressed in a solemn black priest's uniform, and he descended into the world like an angel of God.Passing through the Japanese soldiers who automatically made way for him, standing on both sides of the road, stopped in front of Ito Koji.

Alvin Abel, who was as sacred and inviolable as a pilgrim, immediately shocked him, and most of the anger in his heart disappeared.

"Since I've already got out of the car, please keep your promise, Mr. Da Zuo." The doctor took off his glasses and said neither humble nor overbearing.

"Of course, I am a man of my word, doctor." Koji Ito gave an order, and the convoy was immediately released.

He found his reluctant eyes as he watched the convoy leave, but the American's feet seemed to be stuck in place, motionless.

"Mr. Eliade, you and your people can go back to the French Concession." Ito Koji raised the corner of his mouth and waved to order everyone to put down their guns.

"Ivan, let's go!" Frank glared at him and said to the American doctor.

The Frenchman dragged Alvin Abel and was about to get into the car, but was stopped by Tanaka Hideichi: "I'm sorry sir, what the Colonel said is that you and your men can go back, but the doctor must stay."

"Ha! Why did you let him stay? Are you still qualified to control a Frenchman and an American?"

"Mr. Eliard." Ito Koji smiled and walked in front of them and said, "You have violated our regulations many times. I have been patient with you and turned a blind eye to you, but please don't step on it." My bottom line. I said, you and your people can go. You should understand what I mean. "

The Frenchman's face was filled with unforgivable anger, but there was nothing he could do about it.

"Frank, you go first!" The doctor smiled and said to his friend, "I'll be fine."

"Evan..."

"Let's go!"

"...I'll go to the clinic tomorrow to settle the account of today's escape with you."

"Okay, no problem, my friend."

"Hmph!" The Frenchman snorted coldly, hesitated for a moment before turning around and taking people into the car to leave.
