My girlfriend is from 1949

The forensic doctor took off his mask and took a breath of fresh air.

He said, "The autopsy report will be available in two hours."

Zhong Cheng hurriedly asked, "Is the prisoner dead?"

The forensic doctor glanced at him sideways, but wasn't so polite to the head of the security department.

He rolled his eyes and said, "They're all burnt to a crisp, what do you think?"

It's no wonder it survived after burning in the fire for so long!

Zhong Cheng was speechless and felt a little embarrassed.

But with the superiors still present, even if they were unhappy, they could only suppress it.

Chen Muzheng nodded slightly, letting out a long sigh of relief.

Once the double dies and his face is burned, the plan to substitute one person for another will succeed.

After all, prisoner number 2052 was on the official list.

Ordinary methods of rescuing people will definitely not work.

If they are ordinary pro-democracy activists, or those whose identities have not yet been confirmed.

They can also get people out through means such as medical parole.

However, the person in question has been registered with higher authorities and has already been notified that they will be secretly executed soon.

Then there's no way to retrieve it.

If someone suddenly disappears from prison, you can guess with your big toe that they've been released.

Those involved will likely be arrested as traitors.

Therefore, in order to get someone out, there must be a body double in the prison.

Moreover, this stand-in cannot speak, and must not be recognized as a substitute!

So, through the police commission, they found a notorious criminal, one who was guilty enough to be executed, to take the place.

In every police precinct in Shanghai, there are officers from the Police Commission.

It was thanks to the efforts of these comrades that the Shanghai Police Bureau was able to transition peacefully upon liberation.

They possess a great deal of evidence of crimes.

The corpse in front of me used to be an opium addict.

He not only squandered all his family's wealth, but he also sold his wife and children, all to get money for a few puffs of his drug.

When he ran out of money, he decided to rob someone.

After scouting the place, they broke into the house last night while the man was working the night shift and robbed him of his money.

If it's just robbery, at most they'll be arrested and locked up for a few years.

However, this man was utterly depraved; he not only ransacked the place and stole money, but also brutally murdered the woman and her two children.

The woman's cries for help before she died alerted the neighbors.

So when everyone came out to check, they happened to see this person walking out covered in blood.

This man originally intended to scare his neighbors, but his body had already been ravaged by opium.

One of the neighbors kicked him from behind, and he was quickly subdued and taken to the police station.

The person confessed to the crime without reservation, and will now be handed over for trial.

But just last night, he got into a fight with someone in the cell.

He was beaten to death on the spot; his forehead hitting the ground was the cause of death.

Police officers received orders from their superiors to find a body with a similar build to assist in the rescue mission.

It just so happened that the person had been beaten to death and his body was still fresh, so they took him out under the pretext of throwing him into a mass grave.

Then they changed into prison uniforms from Tilanqiao Prison, were packed into alcohol barrels, and transported in.

After being burned in the fire, his clothes and face were charred, except for his body.

Even if someone you know comes, you won't recognize them.

Chen Muzheng nodded slightly and said, "Now that the death has been confirmed, please issue the report as soon as possible!"

He immediately covered his nose and waved his hand, shouting, "Take him away! Take him away right now!"

As long as the face is burned, everything else is just a matter of wrangling.

The situation in Shanghai is becoming increasingly clear; everyone knows it's impossible to hold out.

Therefore, few people care about the life or death of prisoners.

And we no longer need to be too wary of other departments.

Zhong Cheng looked at the corpse with its raised hand, opened his mouth as if to ask a question.

But considering his own situation, he wisely kept his mouth shut.

There's now a tacit understanding between the prison staff at all levels; it's clear they want to downplay the incident.

If he jumps out at this point and points out the suspicious points out his own inconsiderate behavior, others will also have opinions about him.

If the warden were to lay a hand on him, no one else would stand up for him.

So, adhering to the principle of self-preservation, I chose to keep quiet.

If the situation changes in the future and the warden is no longer powerful, then we can bring up the investigation.

With Chen Muzheng displaying a tough stance and making it clear that he was going to protect his own, everyone reached a tacit understanding.

Tonight's fire has been classified as an accident.

"Since you're all here, let's all come to my office for tea. I just received a box of fine tea!"

Chen Muzheng extended an invitation with a smile, inviting all the management personnel present to his office for tea.

Of course, drinking tea is just an excuse; the real purpose is to offer benefits to keep quiet.

The white fungus, stockings, and small yellow croaker that Du Hengtai sent earlier were all prepared for this moment.

Everyone received a bribe, so they wouldn't talk nonsense in public.

Even if outsiders have suspicions, as long as there is no evidence, there is nothing that can be done about him.

Although the warden was not a high-ranking official, he was not someone to be trifled with.

Without solid evidence, even those people in the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics wouldn't dare to touch him!

At most, we can get two months, and everything will be settled.

……

In a remote suburb, a car with the word "disinfection" printed on it was parked in a bamboo grove by the roadside.

Wang Hai and another comrade got out of the car and took out their flashlights, flashing them rhythmically a few times.

Soon, the same flashlight beams appeared in the darkness.

Several people ran quickly from behind the haystack, opened the car door, and lifted the large iron barrel out.

Then, the group worked together to help the person hiding inside out.

"Comrade 2052, you've suffered!"

The leader of the team couldn't help but tear up when he saw his comrade being tortured beyond recognition.

He hurriedly waved his hand, and someone pushed over a cart.

He explained, "Many retreating troops are currently stationed in the suburbs of Shanghai, so you'll have to make do for now. Once you're on the ship, everything will be fine! Your wife and children have also been secretly sent to the liberated area ahead of time!"

2052 endured all the tortures inflicted by the enemy, but through sheer willpower and unwavering faith, she never uttered a single word.

Looking at my comrades around me, my eyes welled up with tears.

I am genuinely happy to witness the birth of the new China!

The team pushed the cart and quickly disappeared into the night.

"Phew!" Wang Hai took a deep breath and wiped his eyes.

He turned and said, "Let's hurry back to prevent the prison from sending people to question us."

Despite Chen Muzheng's forceful suppression and the gift he gave to silence her, there was also the testimony of the head of the health department who witnessed it firsthand.

For safety reasons, Chen Muzheng would not send anyone to question them.

However, just to be on the safe side, we should go back as soon as possible, just in case.

The two drove slowly back to the city.

He couldn't stop smiling the whole way, feeling a sense of pride as he thought about how he had recently saved the lives of many comrades.

Dawn is almost here in Shanghai!

……

Meanwhile, in Shanghai, 76 years later...

Chen Huai'an kept his head down, quickly operating his phone.

He smiled and said, "I've booked tickets; we're going to see a movie after dinner."

Lin Wan paused as she wiped the coffee table, her hand holding the rag pausing.

Her pretty face flushed, and an embarrassing thought popped into her mind: going to the movies, going on a date...?
