Dong Qiangqiang's Story of Leaving Germany

Chapter 10. Tiger's Den
The phone went unanswered. Dong Qiangqiang angrily closed the phone, bought another coke, and hurried out of the McDonald's.

The earliest Hannover railway station was built between 1845 and 1847. After several renovations and expansions, it became one of the important hubs of the Deutsche Bahn system.During World War II, the railway station was in ruins after the Allied bombing of the city of Hanover relentlessly.But for the German people who love to engage in architecture, rebuilding the railway station is not difficult.

Beginning in June 1945, the reconstruction of the Hannover railway station began. From the 6s to the 60s, with the full recovery of German industrial manufacturing, the renovation of Hannover Railway Station has not completely stopped.

In preparation for the World's Fair held in Hannover in June 2000, Hannover Railway Station underwent the first major overhaul of the new century.After the renovation, Hannover Railway Station not only has bookstores, toy stores, beverage stores, clothing stores, fast food restaurants and other entertainment and leisure places, but even a small cinema in a corner of the railway station.

Dong Qiangqiang looked at the history of Hannover Railway Station on the wall, and calculated in his heart: Where can I go to spend the night tonight.

He walked into a bookstore unknowingly. The store was about 50 square meters. A prominent position in front of the bookstore were mainstream German newspapers, as well as various best-selling books in Germany, Europe and the United States.A few steps further inside, professional and business books from all walks of life fill the bookshelves on several walls, making it dizzying.

Dong Qiangqiang accidentally saw a familiar set of Japanese comics in a corner of the bookshelf. He searched for this set of comics in China for a long time and could not buy it. He did not expect to find it in a bookstore in a foreign country.He picked up one of them excitedly, excitedly looking for the story in his memory.

Jin Yuan woke up in pain.

He felt hot on his forehead and face.He tried hard to open his eyes, but his left eye could only be opened slightly, and his right eyebrow and right eye were covered with some sticky liquid. Although he could open his eyes, he could not see the situation in front of him. .

The bridge of his nose was broken, both nostrils were wet, and a towel was stuffed in his mouth. He struggled to sit up on the ground, but found that his hands were tied behind him, and his left rib was moving. Immediately felt a throbbing pain.

He twisted a few times, leaned himself on the wooden box beside him as much as possible, sat up a little bit, then lowered his head and rubbed the blood on his forehead and face on the cardboard box beside him, so that he could try his best to Be aware of your surroundings.

A dim white light leaked in through the crack in the door panel and sprinkled in front of his legs.Although he can't see clearly, he has recognized himself in the log cabin in the restaurant's backyard.

He tried to calm himself down, listening carefully to the movements outside the wooden house, while carefully observing the furnishings in the wooden house.Occasionally he would hear a back door opening and closing and people walking, but no one came to him.

His eyes wandered around the wooden house, and suddenly, he saw metal shelves with cardboard boxes.He immediately lowered his body, twisted his body like a snake and crawled over, rubbed his back against the metal shelf a little bit and sat up. The pain in his ribs became more and more painful, and his ribs pulled his flesh outward like pliers. Tears and sweat mixed together, slowly sliding down his cheeks, and finally flowed into his mouth mixed with blood stains.

He didn't dare to delay, and immediately rubbed the rope that bound his hands against the angular place on the metal shelf. At first, he didn't dare to push too hard because he was afraid of making noise, but the rubbing was too small. What's the impact? It's still quiet outside the wooden house. Maybe there are more people in the restaurant, and the old chef can't come out to interrogate himself.Thinking of this, he slammed his heart and rubbed it hard. The friction made his hand tighten even more, and the rope at his wrist sank deeply into the flesh, slowly oozing blood.

Uneasy, Dong Qiangqiang casually turned over a dozen pages and put the book back on the shelf.

He walked around the bookstore twice, bought a pack of cigarettes and a lighter, and walked out of the bookstore slowly.

He was about to order a cigarette when he suddenly saw an oversized poster on the wall next to him. On the poster, a blond girl faced a man (probably his father) who was about to smoke, and crossed her hands in a forbidden gesture.A line of big red letters at the bottom of the poster is particularly eye-catching: No smoking in public places!Violators are fined!
Dong Qiangqiang walked out of the side door of the train station, took out his mobile phone and was about to call Jin Yuan again, when he heard a female voice not far away saying in Chinese, "I've already arrived at the train station, when will you pick me up?"

Suddenly hearing the local accent, Dong Qiangqiang felt very cordial.He subconsciously looked at the prestige, and saw a girl who was talking on a cell phone standing a dozen meters away from his left.

She has neat shoulder-length curly hair, bangs hanging gently on one side of her forehead, a pair of innocent big eyes glittering under her slender, long and soft willow eyebrows, and a pair of borderless round glasses on the bridge of her nose.The slight baby fat softened her long face.A long khaki trench coat brought out her slender figure.A small brown bag is slung on his shoulders, and a small golden suitcase is standing beside him.

The other party looked like a new classmate just like Dong Qiangqiang.

Dong Qiangqiang watched the girl while smoking, and at the same time called Jin Yuan's cell phone again.But until he finished smoking, Jin Yuan's cell phone went unanswered.

Isn't this kid running away with money?Dong Qiangqiang pondered in his heart: because they are both classmates in the same language class and are of the same age, the two are relatively close.At the beginning, the house price he and himself reported was 900 marks a month, and he remitted 3600 marks to him as the four-month rent, and also paid him 100 marks for his hard work, a total of 3700 marks, calculated at the exchange rate of 1:3.8, I paid him more than 14000 yuan inside and outside.

Could it be a liar?Dong Qiangqiang felt a little unsure in his heart.

He was thinking when the girl suddenly shouted at the phone: "Chen Dahu! You are a bastard!"

The place where the two stood was located at the northeast gate of the train station. Except for Dong Qiangqiang and the girl who smoked, no one else passed by.Dong Qiangqiang jumped when she shouted so loudly. She saw the girl angrily stuffing her cell phone into Kun's bag, looking anxiously to the other side of the road, then suddenly pulling up her suitcase, hurried across the road, towards the darkness walk down the street.

Dong Qiangqiang put out the cigarette butts and threw them into the trash can. He was about to turn around and walk into the train station when he saw two black figures, one tall and one short, jumping up from a car in the distance. By the moonlight and the light near the train station, Dong Qiangqiang watched. Until two shadows silently flashed into the street where the girl just walked into.

Dong Qiangqiang's hand stopped on the handle of the glass door for a while, he hesitated for a while, then suddenly turned around and walked quietly into the darkness.
