Heroes of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 269

When Xiao Linxun came to Qian Xiaobao's house, Qian Xiaobao was already waiting at home.

"See clearly?" Qian Xiaobao asked.

"I see clearly, but if you want to forge a mailing label, let me draw it on paper first. I can do the other things." Xiao Linxun said.

"I thought for a long time before I came up with this method, otherwise this matter would not be possible at all." Qian Xiaobao said.

"I have fully investigated. When are you going to do it?" Xiao Linxun asked.

"It's just October, and when the ice on the river freezes, we'll do it when there's another heavy snowfall or two!" Qian Xiaobao said.

Qian Xiaobao went to Schultz's clinic. He pretended not to know Schultz in front of Hannah and asked him to see a doctor.

Old Man Savish was on his deathbed.

The old man's body shrank like a dry walnut, with a pair of lifeless eyes open as if he had died.

It's just that when Qian Xiaobao shook the photo of the whole family in front of his eyes, Savish's eyeballs also moved slightly with the photo, and this time he found that he was still alive.

Schultz untied the old man's clothes and listened with a stethoscope for a while, then carefully looked at the pupils of Shavish's eyes.

Schultz turned his head and shook his head slightly at Qian Xiaobao.

"Professor Savisch, the devil will be stuffed back into the bottle one day!" Schultz whispered in German in the old man Savisch's ear.

Old Man Shawish's eyes lit up instantly and then completely dimmed.

"No, let's get ready." Schultz stood up and said to Qian Xiaobao.

"I've already prepared the coffin, and I'll find some Jews to invite them to the funeral." Qian Xiaobao said with a sigh.

The number of Jews in Harbin has decreased dramatically in the past two years, but it is not a problem to find a few people to attend the funeral.

The next day Qian Xiaobao asked someone to bury the old man Savisz next to Mrs. Savisch in the Jewish cemetery.

Every Jew found by Qian Xiaobao readily agreed to attend the funeral.

In order to survive, he came to a foreign country and died here.All Jews feel the same way.

Small stones were placed in front of the tombstone of the old man Shawish, and Qian Xiaobao shook hands with everyone who attended the funeral as a family member.

In the evening, Qian Xiaobao and Xiao Linxun packed up the belongings of the old man Shawish together.

"I was hallucinating just now. I saw old man Savish sitting next to the radio." Qian Xiaobao said sadly.

"This shows that you really have feelings for him." Xiao Linxun said.She is now flipping through the diary written by the old man Shawish, all of which are Arabic numerals.

The old man Shawish recorded the food and other items that Qian Xiaobao sponsored him in the past two years in his diary.

The old man Shawish left most books.These books were all bought from second-hand bookstores after he arrived in Harbin.

Those Russian nobles and Jews sold everything including books for the last two dollars.

"These books are useless. Second Master Qi can't read them, and you don't even know how to read them." Xiao Linxun said.

"I don't know how to read it now, will I not read it in the future? Besides, I will leave these books to my son, and in the future I will send him to the university where the old man Savish is a professor!" Qian Xiaobao swore .

"What is this?" Xun Xiaolin pointed to the big horn in the corner and said.

"You're stupider than me, you don't even know a record player!" Qian Xiaobao said.

He rolled his eyes and said to Xiao Linxun: "I saw two men and women dancing to the music in the ballroom, it was fun! Why don't we try it?"

"I won't," Kobayashi said with a blushing face.

"It's easy to learn! Putting arms together is like wrestling!" Qian Xiaobao said.

Without waiting for Xiao Linxun to speak, Qian Xiaobao walked over and randomly found a record to put on it, then shook the crank and put the cartridge on the record.

As soon as Qian Xiaobao turned around and walked towards Xiao Linxun, he was startled by the sudden bang bang sound from the loudspeaker.

"Come on, I'll teach you!" Qian Xiaobao said.

Qian Xiaobao and Xiao Linxun really twisted their arms together as if they were wrestling with the music.

But it didn't take long for Qian Xiaobao to be sweating profusely.

"Strange thing! The music I heard in the dance hall was like running water. Why is the music tonight like iron?" Qian Xiaobao asked in wonder.

Both Qian Xiaobao and Xiao Linxun looked at the still spinning record player out of breath.The majestic and sonorous melody of Beethoven's Symphony of Destiny still came out from the loudspeaker of the record player.

Qian Xiaobao turned his head and looked in the direction of the radio. He seemed to see the old man Shawish looking at him, with a rare smile on his face.

When the war in Europe just started, many people had already guessed the result.But few people could have guessed that it would end so soon.

A major European country disappeared within a month, and a consulate in Harbin disappeared—the Polish consulate.

Schultz talked with Qian Xiaobao again to convey the instructions of his superiors. It was still an old topic - to pay close attention to the movement of the Kwantung Army and whether there was any intention to go to war.

Schultz was confused about this.The military operations in the European direction have ended, and we should be able to go all out to deal with the Japanese. Why are we still worried that the Kwantung Army will take action on the Eastern Front?

Is there another new military operation?
After listening to Schultz's words, Qian Xiaobao said: "Anyway, I haven't heard of any new Japanese divisions being transferred to the Northeast. Most of the divisions currently in Manchuria have part of their troops staying in Japan. It's full. The Japanese probably don't have any plans to do it right away."

"I will always pay attention." Qian Xiaobao continued.

Then he handed Schultz a suitcase he had brought.

Schultz recognized it as a Nahr record player made in Germany.

"The old man Shawish left something for you as a souvenir." Qian Xiaobao said.

"Comrade Schultz, don't be like a log! Burn yourself up and work with enthusiasm!" Qian Xiaobao said to Schultz.

Schultz returned to the clinic with the record player.

"Any news?" Hannah asked.

"No, the Japanese army has not made any movement for the time being." Schultz replied.

He took the cover off the record player and reassembled the horn and tonearm on it.

Schulz picked out a Strauss waltz from a dozen records, played it, and cranked the rocker arm.

The soothing and brisk music instantly filled the whole room, as if the blue water of the Danube was flowing slowly.

If Qian Xiaobao was present now, he would definitely say that this is the tune I heard in the dance hall. I danced it wrong last night!
Hannah looked at Schultz in surprise for a while before saying, "Comrade Schultz, you have changed!"
