Beacon 1937

Chapter 24: Trapped in Shanghai Part [-]

In the next few days, Koji Ito would visit Aiwen every now and then.Because he was a garrison in Shanghai, he did not join the team to attack Nanjing.

"Doctor, the black tea here is really good." The Japanese officer sipped the black tea, feeling complacent.

Li Ran hated him very much. Every time he saw Koji Ito sitting in their living room, he felt angry all over his body. However, he was afraid of him, afraid that if he offended this devil, he would end up like the Chinese youth that day.Therefore, even if he was unwilling in every possible way, he would still make tea for Koji Ito, and then bring it forward with a straight face.

"Mr. Dazuo, do you have no place to go? You always come to my small clinic to drink black tea." Aiwen couldn't help sarcastically.

"Doctor, if you can keep yourself safe, I don't think I need to bother you often. I'll check if you're okay if I have something to do."

Ai Wen understood what he was referring to. He didn't open a clinic yesterday, and walked to the gate of the Red Cross alone and stopped for a long time.He hesitated again and again, thinking that the current self is not suitable to go to Boss Yan, and that might bring unnecessary trouble to the other party.The only thing left to rely on is a neutral organization... the International Red Cross.

In fact, during the Battle of Songhu, he had not been able to go through the formalities of joining the Red Cross.If I had even a little time to pay attention to this procedure at that time, I might not be trapped here.The medical staff of the International Red Cross can apply to go to any battlefield. Even if Shanghai has been controlled by the Japanese, they cannot completely control the International Red Cross.

Yes, not complete control. Although they are a neutral organization, they are in Shanghai, and they are struggling under the current situation. They have tried their best to guarantee some of their basic rights, because the Japanese will try to prevent them from supporting the Chinese army. .

The materials of the International Red Cross Society are assisted by countries without compensation. They can be said to be the organization with the most complete medical supplies during the war. How can the Japanese not covet such an organization?How can these supplies and medical staff be given up to the Chinese?

... During the war, not only military supplies are needed, but medical supplies in the rear are also essential.

Aiwen stood there, knowing in his heart that he couldn't get in, because Adjutant Tanaka and his party had been following behind him, and if he wanted to go forward, he would definitely be stopped.He even thought about using his American identity to forcefully submit an application, but would such an application be approved?One can imagine.

No matter how anxious he is, he must wait for the opportunity. Boss Yan and the Red Cross are his only hope.

Finally he turned and returned to the clinic.

"Doctor, joining the Red Cross may be the only way you can get rid of the constraints, but how can I let you do what you want? As I said, keeping you by my side and watching you suffer makes me happy." Koji Ito hooked The corners of his mouth curled up, and he smiled maliciously.

Ai Wen squinted at him and said nothing.He knew he couldn't act too hastily, let alone show his anxiety.Even if Shanghai cannot be separated now, the Japanese cannot get his wish.

"Well, I really like black tea more than coffee." Koji Ito finished drinking the New Zealand black tea and put down the exquisite carved ceramic cup, "I think I will visit your doctor in two days."

After finishing speaking, the Japanese officer got up and said goodbye to Ai Wen.

The news of the fall of Nanjing on December [-] shocked the whole of Shanghai.The Chinese here are all in deep despair, and the Japanese here are all celebrating. They even feel that the capital has fallen, and China is already their Japanese.

At that time, Shanghai did not know what kind of hell the people of Nanjing and the Chinese soldiers who were left in Nanjing were living in. The brutal massacre was beyond their imagination.

Aiwen was making coffee for himself when he learned that Nanjing had fallen. When he heard the news, his eyes suddenly went dark and his tinnitus recurred. His right hand, which was holding the sugar cube with tweezers, trembled, and the sugar cube fell out of the coffee cup and landed on the tray. superior.

. . . and he lay in bed for two whole days.

Ai Wen really didn't understand that the war situation in Songhu was so unfavorable to the Chinese side. They resolutely held on for three full months. Why was it that Nanjing was occupied by the Japanese army in only thirteen days?

He doesn't understand military affairs or strategy, but he knows that these Chinese soldiers have never been cowardly, and their hearts have never lost to those desperate Japanese, because they will risk their lives for their motherland.

He was filled with intense sadness, but he couldn't cry out. He even thought that he might never see Chen Yuchen again, and thinking about it would make his heart ache even more.

He really hoped and prayed that Chen Yuchen's father and elder brother would transfer him away from the front line again, that way... at least he was still alive.

It was only after he fell ill that Ai Wen really realized Chen Yuchen's position in his heart. He thought he was just his guiding light, but he didn't know that when a person becomes your beacon, then this person has already occupied a very important position in your life , because without that light, you will suddenly get lost in the chaotic darkness.

"Mael, what's wrong with him?" Frank looked anxiously at the drowsy Ivan who had a high fever again, "Hasn't he recovered from his illness a long time ago? Why did he suddenly become like before?"

"..." Dr. Monet said after hanging up the normal saline solution for Ivan, "It's not because he fell ill before, but because something stimulated him."

"Things? Excitement? What happened recently? Except for the fall of Nanjing..." Frank stopped abruptly at this point, and even Xiang Yinglan beside him frowned.

Both of them realized something. Although Frank was shocked by the fall of Nanjing, he was a Frenchman after all. Even if Aiwen, who is also a foreigner, had feelings for Chinese soldiers, it would not be logical to do so.

It's just that he understands feelings, and Xiang Yinglan also understands feelings.Of course, the fall of Nanjing would not cause Ai Wen to fall ill, but what if there was someone he cared about very much in Nanjing?Alvin spent three months on the front line, enough for him to develop feelings for someone.

"Frank, maybe we should try to find out more about Nanjing." Xiang Yinglan suggested.

"...You are right, I will find a way." Frank stared at his best friend solemnly.
