spy cloud

Around 6 p.m.

The evening glow in the west was like a ball of fire, spreading across the sky and giving people a feeling of infinite beauty in the sunset.

The verdant mountains and forests gradually turned darker, giving off an even more unapproachable aura. Even the nearby villages seemed to exude a sense of human presence.

Zhang Tianhao and Secretary Liu also went directly from the north of the city to the west.

It wasn't that they didn't want to leave the north side of the city, but rather that the small village there had been suddenly invaded by Japanese soldiers. The entire village, and even the surrounding area, was guarded by many Japanese soldiers, completely blocking the road.

He and Secretary Liu had no other choice but to follow the second plan and head directly to the pre-arranged village in the west of the city.

In a small courtyard in Shenjiazhuang, five miles west of Changfeng County, Zhang Tianhao and Secretary Liu were sitting at a table.

He was holding a large bowl in his hands, drinking water in big gulps.

Clearly, the two were quite tired from the journey.

Zhang Tianhao was still not fully recovered, and after running all the way here, he was so exhausted that he almost collapsed on the ground.

Secretary Liu's health wasn't great either; he nearly lost half his life running all that way.

"Wang Xiaotian, this is your new name. Do you understand? Don't say it wrong!"

"Thank you!"

"Also, you are a son of the Wang family from the original city. Your father is Wang Dalong and your mother is Qin Yaru. I have also prepared some other information for you."

After drinking a large bowl of water, Secretary Liu finally regained his senses and recovered some strength. Helplessly, he prepared a new identity for Zhang Tianhao.

“You’ve been studying away from home since you were little and rarely come back. This time you’re back to pay respects to your ancestors. You’ll be leaving again soon.”

"Then how do you explain this certificate of good conduct?"

"You're back to handle this, after all, even though you don't come back often, you do come back sometimes, don't you?"

"Okay, that's a valid explanation."

Zhang Tianhao responded and looked at the other person.

"We need to get into town early tonight, but the photos will take a while. They've already been taken, and once they're dry, we can paste them on."

Indeed, as soon as I arrived here, I started taking pictures, then took them inside to be developed. It took at most half an hour to develop them, and then I pasted them onto the good citizen certificate.

"We'll rest for a while, then we can head back to the city!"

Do you have dinner?

"No, I guess they won't eat anymore. People here only eat one meal a day. It's not that they don't want to eat, it's that they can't afford it. It's already a miracle that they're not starving to death."

"Such a thing is true."

"Alas, there's nothing we can do; it's all the fault of those Japanese devils!"

"That's right. It's all the fault of the Japanese devils. When will we be able to drive them out of China? Then the people won't have to suffer so much."

"If we could move to northern Jiangsu in the east now, life might be better. I heard that the people there are at least safe, and although there is a shortage of food, at least they can still eat porridge."

As Secretary Liu spoke, he sized up Zhang Tianhao, trying to glean something from Zhang Tianhao's face.

After all, the plane flew in from northern Jiangsu, which can only mean that the people on board the plane from northern Jiangsu are quite important.

"By the way, Xiaotian, how about we double-check some basic information again?"

"no problem!"

The two sat there and continued checking the Wang family's basic information to avoid being questioned and having anything discovered when they returned to the city. As the sun began to set, they saw someone come out of the inner room, holding a small photograph in their hand.

Then, without thinking, it was pasted onto the Good Citizen Certificate, and just like that, the entire Good Citizen Certificate was processed.

As for the seals and such, they have already been prepared.

Clearly, this was something Secretary Liu had prepared for in advance, or rather, he had done his homework beforehand.

"Xiao Jin, the photos are ready. The sun is about to set, and the city will be locked down soon. We need to get into the city as soon as possible, or things might change."

"Well, Lao Liu, I really didn't expect that when I got to the north of the city, I found that the Japanese had surrounded the area, so I turned around and came here!"

As Xiao Jin spoke, she handed the certificate of good citizenship to Zhang Tianhao, then breathed a sigh of relief and looked at him, wanting to get a better look at him.

"Brother Xiaotian, I am Jin Zaiyong. You can call me Xiaojin. May I call you Brother Xiaotian?"

"No problem, a name is just a title!"

Zhang Tianhao understood that he couldn't remember anything right now, so being able to use the name Wang Xiaotian was already quite good.

"By the way, Xiao Tian, ​​pack your things and we're leaving soon. We still have several miles to go."

"it is good!"

The three of them packed their things, left the courtyard, and arrived at the village entrance. There they saw a middle-aged man sitting there, a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, idly watching the road leading into the village.

"Dashan, we're going back. Just pretend you didn't see us today to avoid anyone coming to cause you trouble."

"Old Liu, Little Jin, I understand. You need to be careful on the way, but there shouldn't be any problems. There aren't many people at the city gate today."

"Okay, let's go now!"

"Dashan, we're leaving now. Contact us if you need anything, or come find me in town!"

"it is good!"

Da Shan waved goodbye to Zhang Tianhao and the other two, watching them slowly disappear down the path at the village entrance before turning and heading home.

Soon, the three of them walked onto the main road, which was a highway in the west of the city. Although it was dilapidated, it was already quite good compared to other roads.

Walking on the big tree, looking at the city wall in the distance, he also took a deep breath.

Although it was a distance of four or five miles, his eyesight was quite good, and he could still see a general outline, even noticing that there weren't many guards on the city wall.

"We'll be faster, but Lao Liu, can your body handle it?"

At this moment, Jin Dayong glanced at Lao Liu to the side, then at Zhang Tianhao, whose face was pale. His lips twitched. After all, Zhang Tianhao's face was pale, and he looked like a pretty boy.

However, upon closer inspection, it was discovered that Zhang Tianhao's complexion was not the pale white of a pretty boy, but rather a sickly white.

"It's alright, it's only a few miles, I can manage!"

Secretary Liu gritted his teeth, glanced at Zhang Tianhao beside him, and asked softly, "Xiao Tian, ​​can you hold on? You're not fully recovered yet."

"It's alright. After we get to the city, I'll need to rest for a couple of days. If possible, could you please get me some medicine to replenish my qi and blood and brew it for me?"

"By the way, where's the money?"

On a whim, a wad of cash suddenly appeared in his pocket. He pulled it out and handed it over.

"Brother Dayong, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you with this. This is all the money I have. Please help me make the arrangements."

"Okay!" (End of Chapter)
