Quick Wear: Passerby A's Daily Life of Eating Watermelons

Chapter 18: A stranger in the spy world of the Republic of China

Jiang Yue had also bought a ticket for a train the next morning. Jiang Yue did not return to her previous hotel but found a hotel near the train station to stay in.

The next morning, Jiang Yue went to the station after breakfast. There was no martial law so the inspection was not very strict. Jiang Yue took out his ID and passed it after a quick check. Except for several ID checks on the train, everything was basically fine. The train arrived in Hangzhou in the afternoon. Jiang Yue carried his suitcase and followed the crowd out of the station.

She was not in a hurry to travel. She found a temporary hotel, removed her makeup, changed into her original clothes and put on a little makeup. She found a rickshaw to take her to the vicinity of Leifeng Pagoda. After arriving at the destination, Jiang Yue found a hotel and stayed there. The next morning, Jiang Yue went to Leifeng Pagoda, where she and Aunt Fang had agreed to meet.

When Jiang Yue went over, she didn't see the Leifeng Pagoda. Jiang Yue was confused. How could it be gone? She asked the passers-by. The place was right. Where is the pagoda?

Jiang Yue thought she had gone to the wrong place, and was still wondering where the tower had gone when she heard, "Miss, is that you?"

Jiang Yue quickly turned around and saw Aunt Fang and the little apprentice standing not far behind him. Jiang Yue took a few quick steps and hugged Aunt Fang and the little apprentice. The people around looked at them and then stopped looking. They must have been reunited after a long separation. Aunt Fang patted Jiang Yue on the back. Jiang Yue let go of her hand and smiled shyly, then asked Aunt Fang curiously: "Aunt Fang, do you know where Leifeng Pagoda is?"

"Oh, don't mention it. My children and I thought we had found the wrong place the first time we came here. I heard that it collapsed more than ten years ago and has never been repaired."

Jiang Yue then understood that it seemed like it was rebuilt when he came to play in modern times. He was too busy these days and didn't think about it for a while. Jiang Yue and Aunt Fang held the little apprentice's hand and returned to the place rented by Aunt Fang. Aunt Fang rented a small courtyard for safety. Jiang Yue took a look and found it quite elegant.

After arriving home, Aunt Fang boiled some hot water for Jiang Yue. Jiang Yue took a shower and wanted to lie on the bed to rest for a while while waiting for dinner. As a result, when Aunt Fang came over, she was already fast asleep. Aunt Fang touched Jiang Yue's face and helped her to tidy up her hair with heartache, knowing that she must not have had a good sleep that day. Aunt Fang got up and quietly left the room, closed the door gently, and went downstairs with her little apprentice to eat.

It was already dark when Jiang Yue woke up. After waking up, he ate the meal Aunt Fang had left for him. Now he had to find a way to go to Hong Kong. Hangzhou was also an occupied area and they couldn't stay there for long. After dinner, the three of them sat together to discuss how to go to Hong Kong. They could go directly to Shanghai but none of them could buy boat tickets. The remaining option was Guangzhou. They would go to Guangzhou and then take a train to Kowloon.

The next morning, Aunt Fang started buying lunch boxes and preparing meals. Jiang Yue went out to buy train tickets and a suitcase. By the way, she reported her safety to Chen Xin and told her that they were about to leave for Hong Kong. Chen Xin asked Jiang Yue to be careful in Guangzhou, because the person who had contacted Chen's father and others before disappeared in Guangzhou, and then could not contact Chen's father. She wrote several letters but received no reply, and she didn't know whether they were not received or something happened with Chen's father.

This time the time on the train is quite long, so it is necessary for Jiang Yue to prepare some more things. After buying the suitcase, Jiang Yue put it into the space, and took out the lunch box to start replenishing it. In order to reduce the number of times he went out during the few days in Shanghai, he ate the food in the space.

I visited more than a dozen restaurants and prepared more than a hundred meals, which should be enough. I also bought some snacks and fruits, and went to the drugstore to buy some medicinal herbs and some cosmetics to replenish the materials for disguise and makeup.

After returning home, Aunt Fang cooked a lot of dishes, mainly fruits and vegetables that can be eaten raw. The prepared meals cannot be preserved for long, and besides, food can be bought on the train.

Jiang Yue rested for another day to recover her strength and spirit, and then the family of three set off for the train station. The inspector saw that all three of them were women and questioned them a little more, but was fooled by Jiang Yue. She made a mistake and should have dressed up as a man. Jiang Yue and the other two booked a private room, and they paid for it in US dollars. This time their identities were those of a young lady who had returned from studying in the United States and was looking for her family.

Jiang Yue is a young lady who returned from studying in the United States. After returning from her ancestral home in Hangzhou, she found that her family had immigrated to Hong Kong. After returning, they sold their house. When she was looking for her family, she found Aunt Fang, the family's servant. It turned out that all of Aunt Fang's relatives had died and only had a granddaughter. So she left sadly and followed the young lady who had taken care of her since she was a child.

The train started moving soon after we got on the train. Not long after that, the Japanese knocked on the door. Their questions were much more detailed than those asked at the station and they could speak English. They asked Jiang Yue directly in English and Jiang Yue answered fluently. Moreover, this identity had been established for who knows how many years. Unless it was confirmed that there was a problem and they were investigating it with all their strength, there would definitely be no problem with an ordinary investigation.

After all, Jiang Yue started thinking about this kind of thing as soon as he gained a foothold in Shanghai. As an excellent worker, he knew clearly the cruelty of this era. With no other way out, Jiang Yue had prepared several options. This was just one of them. There were also various other options, such as going to the base, going abroad, and settling in Xinjiang and Tibet.

The Japanese checked for a while and found nothing wrong, so they went to the next box. Not long after, gunshots were heard. It seemed that some brave man had been killed. Jiang Yue didn't have the ability to take care of himself, and everything was safe until noon.

At noon, after eating the food brought by Aunt Fang, Aunt Fang and Jiang Yue took turns to rest for a while, took out some books and began to teach the little apprentice. Aunt Fang looked at them lovingly from the side until the afternoon was approaching evening. The train suddenly stopped. People on the train were talking about it. Jiang Yue asked Aunt Fang and the little apprentice to stay in the carriage and went out to take a look.

"I heard that someone hid on the train and killed several Japanese. The Japanese forced the train to stop to prevent anyone from escaping."

As soon as Jiang Yue went out, she heard two people in the box next to her talking in low voices. But how could a moving train stop? Aren't they afraid of being hit by the train behind? Jiang Yue couldn't understand what the Japanese were thinking. Sure enough, they all had problems with their brains.

After listening for a while, Jiang Yue returned to the carriage and talked to Aunt Fang about it. The two of them complained together. After a few minutes, someone came to search and found Jiang Yue soon. Jiang Yue opened the door of the carriage and let them look. The people outside went in and looked under the bed. After looking around and seeing no one, the person leading the group waved his hand and went to the next one.
