Chapter 474 The Republic of China: Beauty in War 3
Li Erdan's clothes were already tattered, and Wangcai bit off a large piece of them.
He covered his butt and spoke with grievance.
"Yunyan, your dog is too fierce. I'm leaving first. See you at the entrance of Liyuan at 7 o'clock in the evening."
Yunyan couldn't help laughing and touched Wangcai's dog head.
"Why are you so fierce? He's right, you are indeed fat."
Wangcai said dissatisfiedly: "Host, how can you say I'm fat? I'm obviously fat because of happiness."
Yunyan found it funny and pinched its fat body again.
Zhao Ge came over and sat opposite Yunyan.
"Ayan, I just saw Li Erdan come to see you again. You should play with him less often. That guy has a lot of tricks up his sleeve."
Yunyan smiled and changed the subject, "Sister Zhao, how long have you been running a flower shop here?"
Zhao Ge asked in confusion: "Why are you asking this suddenly?"
There was no clue on Yunyan's face, she just spoke lightly.
"Nothing, I just want to get to know you better, sister. After all, you are my savior, I have to repay you."
Zhao Ge touched Yunyan’s dry and yellow hair.
"Ayan, sister doesn't need you to repay her. You just need to live well."
"This flower shop used to belong to my brother, but he never came back."
Yunyan's face was full of innocent confusion.
"So, sister, can't you find him?"
Zhao Ge smiled bitterly.
"I can't find it anymore. I can never find it again."
There was sadness in Zhao Ge's eyes, but unfortunately Yunyan was blind and couldn't see it.
However, Yunyan could tell from her tone that Zhao Ge's brother might have passed away.
Zhao Ge quickly calmed down. She touched Yunyan's head and said gently, "Ayan, I can't protect you forever. If you encounter danger in the future, you can go to the concession."
Zhao Ge put a necklace around Yunyan's neck.
"There will be someone there to help you."
Yunyan inexplicably felt that the air pressure was a bit low, and Zhao Ge's state seemed like he was leaving some last words.
Yunyan frowned slightly.
"Sister Zhao, I will never leave you no matter what. You have to believe that I can protect you."
Zhao Ge thought Yunyan was just joking and didn't take her words to heart.
She said in a coaxing tone: "Okay, sister believes you can protect me."
Yunyan could sense her perfunctory attitude, but the words of a blind girl like her were indeed not convincing.
At this moment, a rough male voice suddenly came from outside.
"Boss, what flowers do you have at home? Please introduce them to me."
Zhao Ge quickly went out to entertain the guests.
Yunyan had excellent hearing and seemed to have heard Zhao Ge and the guest introducing many flowers.
But the guest was still not satisfied in the end. He ridiculed Zhao Ge a few times and left in disgust.
Zhao Ge, however, looked indifferent and didn't care.
Yunyan didn't take it to heart. After all, not every business deal would be successful.
Wangcai suddenly called out twice.
"Wang Wang."
"Host, there was a faint smell of blood on that person just now, and it was fresh blood."
Wangcai is a dog and his sense of smell is much better than that of humans. Yunyan’s eyes moved slightly.
How could a person who had just been stained with blood have the leisure time to buy flowers?
There is only one possibility, he came here for a purpose, and Zhao Ge might know that person.
I just don’t know what their relationship is. It seems that Zhao Ge is in contact with very dangerous people.
So, Zhao Ge’s identity as the owner of the flower shop is just the apparent one, she should have other identities as well.
Yunyan pretended not to notice anything and went straight out the door with Wangcai.
"Sister Zhao, I'm going out to digest my food."
Zhao Ge gave Yunyan a few words of advice, asking her to be careful, and then said nothing else.
Wangcai used his dog nose to track the scent of the person who came to buy flowers.
Finally, Wangcai stopped at the back door of the Pear Garden.
"Host, this is a theatre troupe. It's the back door of the opera garden that Li Erdan told you about at noon."
Yunyan raised her eyebrows, it was really interesting.
"Okay, let's go back first."
It was only afternoon, not evening yet. Yunyan couldn't get into the opera house at all.
She pulled Wangcai and walked slowly back, hearing the sounds of various small vendors hawking their wares and the occasional sound of rickshaws.
Not far away there was a little boy selling newspapers.
The little boy was so busy greeting passers-by that he bumped into a soldier in uniform without noticing.
The soldier cursed a few words in English that no one around him could understand, then raised his foot and kicked the little boy hard in the stomach.
There were several other soldiers in uniform around him, who also started punching and kicking the little boy on the ground.
More and more people gathered to watch, and many of them were indignant, but no one dared to step forward to stop it.
"Oh my god, this foreigner is so arrogant, bullying a child in broad daylight."
"Hush, keep your voice down, these are soldiers from the concession, you are risking your life."
A woman nearby couldn't bear to watch and rushed forward to stop the soldiers.
But all she was greeted with were the fists of the soldiers.
The little boy was vomiting blood and lying on the ground, beaten to death.
The woman was grabbed by the hair and slapped in the face by several men, and the soldiers became more and more addicted to bullying her.
Finally, he stripped the woman's clothes off and then crushed her body with his feet.
The onlookers couldn't bear to watch any longer. After all, the scene was too bloody and cruel. These foreigners had no scruples at all.
They killed the two weak characters.
Some young people wanted to step forward to seek explanation, but were held down by the old man.
"If you go, you will end up like them. The backbones of the Chinese people have long been bent!"
Yunyan heard a loud noise and then a desperate scream for help.
By the time Wangcai brought her to the scene of the incident, the soldiers had already left in a swagger.
All that was left on the ground were two bodies, one big and one small, and bright red blood.
The young man took off his long gown and covered the woman with it. His eyes turned slightly red as he looked up at the gray sky.
When will days like this end? He has read so many books by sages, but at this moment, they all seem ridiculous.
Soon, several uniformed police officers cleaned up the two bodies on the ground.
The clear water washed away the bloodstains on the ground, but it could not wash away the bloodstains in the young people's hearts.
Yunyan listened for a long time before she was able to reconstruct the course of events from the people around her.
Her grip on the dog leash tightened involuntarily, and a feeling of powerlessness surged in her heart.
In this land, I wonder how many people are suffering the same humiliation as the two people who just died tragically on the street.
But ordinary people's resistance is always in vain, because their country is backward and the government is inherently weak.
The young man kneeling on the ground suddenly screamed like crazy and rushed out of the crowd.
Studying abroad for further studies is too slow, he wants to go to the front line.
The crowd gradually dispersed, and Yunyan left with heavy steps.
A familiar voice suddenly called her.
"Yunyan, why did you come out? Are you here to see me?"
