Beacon 1937

Chapter 17: Trapped in Shanghai Part [-]

November [-], [-], evening

When the past reappeared like a movie, Aveton felt as if he was listening to someone else's story.

The epilogue, not the ending, is the beginning of a sequel.He naturally knew the real purpose of Koji Ito's helping hand, but the Japanese was willing to sell favors, but he was unwilling to return them.Aiwen didn't think he owed Koji Ito anything, because he had been kind to them in the dance hall.Even though he would be constantly harassed during his stay in Shanghai, he had no intention of joining the Japanese army.

Xiang Yinglan pushed the door in with the oatmeal that Marina had prepared.This bowl of porridge is not soaked in water, but in milk.Marina added a little sugar to the tasteless, gritty oatmeal to make it taste better.

Frank helped Ivan sit up, and in order to make him sit comfortably, he also put several feather pillows on his back.

Aiwen tilted his head back as much as possible, because he still felt dizzy and tinnitus when he got up, but this was not surprising for a person who had slept in bed for five days.

"Let me feed you doctor." Xiang Yinglan said softly.

However, Ivan couldn't help but look at Frank on the other side, how could he not just "borrow" this girlfriend who is also a friend.

"Ewen, do you want me to feed you? Or do you want to drink porridge with your hands that can't even hold the bowl steadily?" Frank joked.

Of course, Aiwen was unwilling to let a young master who never worked hard do it, but he was really powerless at the moment, so he said, "I'm sorry to trouble you, beautiful lady."

Xiang Yinglan smiled happily when she heard the words, and she was very happy to see that Dr. Abel was recovering.

"While you still need to lie in bed, I will arrange the clinic on Joffre Road for you." Frank likes to arrange everything for Ivan very much. His stubborn friend is willing to listen to his advice very few times , so every time Ivan had to bow his head, Frank would feel extremely superior.

Ai Wen smiled at his friend after taking a sip of the oatmeal that Xiang Yinglan brought over.He didn't want to tell Frank that he wanted to go to Nanjing. He wanted to visit Boss Yan when he recovered and Shanghai was no longer so turbulent.But before that, he had to write another letter to his father.

At this time, Dr. Monet hurried in, and when he saw Ivan sitting on the bed, he immediately beamed with joy.

In fact, Ivan had never seen this Frenchman before, and he speculated from the medical kit in his hand that this elderly man might be his attending doctor.

Dr. Monet re-examined him, and Ivan, whose vital signs are all very good, only needs to rest for a few more days and recharge his energy before he can return to his original state.

On November [-], the Japanese army exercised multi-party control over Shanghai. They wanted to turn this metropolis into a second "Manchukuo", so they ordered all the institutions and trams in Shanghai to resume operation one by one.

The French Concession and the West District of the Public Concession have become isolated islands. Although they are not under the control of the Japanese side, they are not affected much on the surface...

On the same day, the Commander of the Central China Front of Japan and the Japanese Consul General in Shanghai put forward five requirements to the public concession and the French Concession to prohibit anti-Japanese activities and prohibit activities of Chinese government agencies in the concession.

After that day, the Japanese took control of some newspaper offices. So far, Ai Wen and the others have seen not only newspapers in Chinese, English, and French, but some Chinese newspapers always have a Japanese page with the same content.Naturally, the content inside has also been completely reversed: it is no longer the Chinese army's heroic resistance against the enemy, and it is no longer the speeches of Generalissimo Jiang, but instead promotes the benefits of Japan's unification of Greater East Asia and its "beautiful yearning" for the future.

Not only do they want to unify the whole of Asia, but they also want to control the thinking of the Chinese people.

However, how can some newspapers allow them to do so?
