Before Wei Ran was about to leave from the back door of the kitchen, Artur took out a Radom pistol, a pocket watch, and a black pen from his pocket and stuffed them into his hands. "If the gravekeeper
If he doesn’t believe your identity, just show him this pen and remember to take off the cap. Also, you must be back before five o’clock.”
"clear"
Wei Ran nodded, put away his pistol, pocket watch and pen and was about to open the wooden door to the outside. However, before his hand could touch the door handle, there was a banging knock from the direction of the tavern door behind him.
Door sound.
Artur's body trembled, he immediately turned around and hurriedly pulled out another pistol from his waist.
"Victor, open the door Victor!" Outside the door, a young girl's voice shouted while crying and banging on the door.
"What's going on?" Wei Ran and Atul asked each other in unison.
"Your name was called." Artur breathed a sigh of relief and inserted the weapon back into his waist. "It sounds like she is Frank's sister."
"That girl named Karen?" Wei Ran immediately identified the voice outside the door with the freckle-faced little girl.
"Open the door first," Arthur urged, while hiding his body in the shadow of the kitchen wall.
Wei Ran nodded, put away the weapon in his hand, and opened the door carefully. Before he could react, the girl outside the door burst into tears and threw herself into his arms. Then, he heard the girl's voice.
He whispered in his ear, "My brother asked me to inform you that the tavern has been surrounded by chained dogs."
Before Wei Ran could speak, the girl hugged Wei Ran's neck tightly and began to cry loudly.
Carrying the skinny little girl out of the tavern, Wei Ran gently closed the door, then gently patted the girl in his arms on the back and led her on the doorstep.
By wiping away the non-existent tears, Wei Ran looked around vaguely. Unfortunately, apart from the pouring rain, he didn't see any clues about the chained dog.
"What's going on?" Wei Ran gently held the other person in his arms again and asked against the other person's ear.
"My brother was going to come to the tavern to borrow some kerosene in the evening, but he accidentally discovered a chained dog hiding around."
The little girl named Ka Lun put her hands around Wei Ran's neck, spoke faster and whispered, "He was worried about what the chain dog would do to you, so he asked me to come over and inform you to prepare in advance. In addition, from now on, you
He's my boyfriend, but my brother Frank is going to marry me to a stallion, that's why I came to you."
Hearing this, Wei Ran nodded imperceptibly and said in a slightly louder voice, "How dare that bastard Frank do this! You come in first and change your clothes, and I will take you to find him!"
"No! I don't want to go back! Take me away! Leave Kielport, let's go to Hamburg, go to Berlin, and leave here forever!" This girl named Karen is obviously a drama queen, although she cried and cried when she spoke.
He shouted, but there was a trace of excited smile on his face covered with freckles.
"We're not going anywhere. After you finish changing your clothes, I'll take you to teach him a lesson!" Wei Ran had no choice but to cooperate with the other party's acting, and at the same time he also winked at her.
The freckled girl named Karen blinked her eyes and continued crying, "Then you can't hurt him!"
"Come in with me and change clothes first!" Wei Ran said, already pulling the other party open the door of the tavern.
"What's wrong?" Artur frowned and asked, "Karen, did that bastard Frank bully you again?"
"He wants to marry me to an officer in exchange for him sitting in an office in the post office!" Karen said with a smile, and then threw herself into Artur's arms, "Uncle Artur, I want to marry Vic
Stay together more!”
"Okay, okay, don't cry yet."
After being stunned for a short time, Artur immediately patiently comforted the little girl in his arms, and then gently knocked on Mia's door, signaling her to take the soaked Karen to change into dry clothes.
.
"Victor, what are you going to do?" Artur lowered his voice slightly and asked meaningfully.
"What else can we do?" Wei Ran glanced at the second floor with his peripheral vision and responded angrily, "I'll go talk to Frank in person later!"
"Don't be impulsive. If you really hurt Frank, Karen will be sad too." Artur patted Wei Ran on the shoulder, then walked into the bar and poured him a small half glass of red wine with the lowest alcohol content.
Before Wei Ran could finish the wine in the glass, Karen walked out of Mia's room. But when he saw the thick white dress on the other side, Wei Ran fell into an unbelievable sluggish state.
White dress, woman...So, Karen is the female skeleton lying in the basement in later generations?
Suppressing the panic in his heart, Wei Ran looked at the cup in his hand, and then at the little girl sitting at the dining table covering her face and pretending to be sad. He was already shaken by the method he had just thought of.
"Victor, don't be impulsive." Artur reminded pointedly.
Can I change anything?
Wei Ran held the cup and asked himself. This was undoubtedly the second cruelest thing to him. At this time, that thick white dress was worn on this little girl who had not had much communication before. In his eyes, it was
It was no different from an invitation sent by the god of death. However, the freckled girl who seemed to have a talent for acting and a lot of courage didn't know what it meant to put on that dress.
Inexplicably, Wei Ran once again thought of the pieces of cloth that shattered when the blue blanket exploded when he first entered the Battle of Stalingrad. He thought of the little girl who couldn't speak or heard. He thought of her.
The way he grabbed his trouser legs and asked for the grenade reminded him of the explosion that even Gu Qin Yaoguang couldn't help him forget.
"Victor?" Artur asked in a low voice.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Pop!"
The goblet in Wei Ran's hand hit the floor and shattered into pieces. As the glass fell to the ground, he took a step forward, walked to the side of the door, took out a raincoat from the hanger, and helped the quilt himself.
Karen was startled by the sound of the cup falling and put it on.
"I'm going to have a good talk with your bastard brother Frank." As Wei Ran spoke, he reached out and took off another large raincoat, put it on and pulled up the hood.
"Victor, don't be impulsive!" Artur reminded again.
"I won't be impulsive"
As Wei Ran spoke, he reached out and took out an umbrella and a kerosene lamp placed on the table and handed them to Karen. Then he bent down beside her and said, "I will carry you back."
Karen was stunned, quickly took the umbrella and kerosene lamp, and lay on Wei Ran's back obediently. After going out, he immediately held up the umbrella and used the umbrella cover to block the rain blowing from directly in front of him.
, and also covered most of Wei Ran's face.
"Today's young people..."
In the Siren Tavern, Artur took out two clean goblets and poured some scarlet wine into each. Then he lit a kerosene lamp and said to Mia, "I'll wait here.
Come back Victor, in case he does something stupid. What about you? Stay and have a drink with me, or go back to bed?"
“Just one drink”
Mia yawned, walked slowly to the bar and sat down. She elegantly picked up the goblet and touched it with Artur.
At the same time, while Wei Ran was acting and accusing Frank with Karen who was carrying him on his back, he was also paying attention to the surrounding environment along the way.
"Don't look back." Wei Ran felt the little girl on his shoulder move and immediately warned him in a low voice in advance.
Hearing this, Karen immediately put her chin on Wei Ran's shoulder and continued to complain about how greedy her brother Frank was for money.
With the little girl's cover, Wei Ran walked to the door of the wooden house where Frank lived without any danger while speaking harsh words.
He didn't care whether there was a tail behind him, or whether he would disturb the neighbors around him. Wei Ran carefully put Karen down and stood still, and then banged the old wooden door.
The moment Frank opened the door, Wei Ran had already raised his fist and hit Frank in the face.
"Frank, you are a scumbag! How did you promise me?" Wei Ran yelled while gesturing wildly at Frank with winks.
"What did I promise you?! What did I promise you?"
Frank stood up holding the punched cheek, and started fighting with Wei Ran at the door in the heavy rain, while Karen also started to break up the fight in a decent manner.
It took five or six minutes for the two people who were struggling together to move the scene of the fight to the room under Karen's push. Karen, who had been following them, followed anxiously to continue to break up the fight, and even
The girl deliberately waited before turning around and slamming the door violently, blocking the view outside.
Looking at the tightly drawn curtains on the surrounding windows and the kerosene lamp on the dining table, Wei Ran slightly adjusted the angle so that his shadow could be perfectly projected on the curtains, then raised his fist and gently shook Frank's hand.
on the shoulders.
Frank, on the other hand, also let out a muffled groan, staggered back a few steps, then picked up a stuffed animal from the sofa and placed it on his chest. He continued to scream while letting Wei Ran sit on his lap.
Time and time again, he gently punched the stuffed toy on his chest. From time to time, this "big uncle" would still have time to stretch out a hand and push down the chair next to him, or scream while looking at the shadow on the curtain.
, while adjusting his angle, he gently returned his hand a few times.
And his sister Karen also sat down on the floor, pressing her back against the wooden door while continuing to cry.
The three young men performed this farce for more than ten minutes, and then Frank, at Wei Ran's signal, gasped and began to beg for mercy.
"So now you are willing to sit down and talk about what you promised me before?" Wei Ran stood up and asked, pinching his nose.
"I should ask you this!" Frank said angrily, turning to his sister and shouting, "Karen, go back to your room! Don't come down until I call you!"
"I'm not going up! I'm right here!" Karen responded loudly with a hoarse voice, and locked the door again, "Don't even think about running out!"
Frank angrily kicked down a chair again, then raised the chair again under the threat of fire and placed it next to the burning fireplace. By the way, he also picked up a newspaper on the floor, and then
Then he took out two pencils only as long as his fingers from his pocket.
The two men sat down aggressively around the coffee table by the fireplace. While discussing the issue of Karen's ownership and the price Victor had to pay, they used pencils to write on the newspaper, exchanging information about the two sides and the health plans.
Down plan.
"Isn't it too risky?" Frank wrote his doubts in the newspaper while denying Weiran's price.
"You can try it, but there are certain risks."
After Wei Ran struggled to write these words that concealed countless dangers, he continued to pinch his nose and quoted the new price in a thick nasal voice. He also complained about his crooked nose.
"Then try it!"
After Frank wrote this sentence, he saw Wei Ran nodding and immediately threw the newspaper into the still burning fireplace not far away. Karen, who had already quietly crawled to the fireplace, also gently picked up a piece of paper at the same time.
After stirring up the ashes of the newspaper, the firewood was placed on the blazing fire.
At the same time, while Wei Ran and Frank continued to discuss the "human trafficking" deal, they each took off their clothes, pants and even shoes and handed them to each other, and then put on the clothes the other party handed to them.
"Victor, how about you give me one night to think about it?"
When Frank saw that Wei Ran was fully dressed, he immediately said, "Tomorrow morning! If I accept your offer, I will go to the tavern to find you. However, if I really go, I hope you can prepare the purchase in advance."
You can’t afford a penny less to get to Cullen!”
"It seems you still want to taste your fists!"
Wei Ran said, waving his fist again and giving the opponent a light punch, "This punch is for Karen!"
"This punch was also for Karen!"
Frank also used the same excuse to fight back, and the two struggled again and finally fell heavily to the floor. However, by the time they fell to the ground, Wei Ran and Frank had already exchanged positions.
"I will take Karen to the tavern first to prevent you from sneaking him away today."
Wei Ran lay on the floor and shouted breathlessly. Immediately afterwards, Frank had already stood up and pulled Karen to the door.
The brother and sister quickly put on their large raincoats, and Frank even took a towel to cover his nose before carrying his sister on his back, using umbrellas, clothes, towels, and his sister's crying comfort as cover.
, taking over Wei Ran’s identity, he walked to the Siren Tavern fearfully.
On the contrary, the sister Karen on his back had a very good psychological quality. Before leaving, she not only remembered to say a harsh word, but also closed the door tightly to avoid the possibility of Wei Ran's secrets being revealed.
As soon as the other party walked away, Wei Ran, who had been holding his nose while talking, immediately let go and tried his best to imitate Frank's voice and let out a series of gasping screams and curses at Victor.
While he waited patiently, the Frank brothers and sisters also returned to the Siren Tavern without any danger.
"Uncle Artur, Victor is injured, do you have any medicine?" Karen asked anxiously before getting off the fake Victor.
Artur only glanced at it and understood the situation in an instant. He immediately picked up the oil lamp on the bar and led the way. As he walked upstairs, he said, "Yes, they are all on the third floor. Let him and me come up quickly."
Ya, take Karen to change some clothes."
"Come with me"
Mia secretly put away the pistol hidden in the cuff of her pajamas, and pulled Karen, who looked worried, into her room.
On the stairs leading to the third floor, Artur, who was holding a kerosene lamp, deliberately blocked the light of the kerosene lamp with his body, leaving Frank behind him with a towel covering less than half of his face in the darkness.
, and at the same time, a series of impulse-related sermons kept coming out of his mouth.
When the two of them safely arrived at the third floor, which was not open to guests, and got into Artur's bedroom, Frank continued to follow what Wei Ran taught him before, while taking a breath and saying soft words from time to time.
Atul told Artur in a low voice the expected time of Wei Ran's return and the arrangements for that time.
At the same time, in Frank's room, Wei Ran carefully listened under each window, and then waited patiently until after the agreed time, no gunshots were heard from the tavern.
After heaving a sigh of relief, he quietly climbed up to the second floor with the only kerosene lamp in hand, and looked out carefully from every window.
After confirming the surrounding situation, he went to the first floor in the dark, put on the Soviet cloak in the metal book, and put on the flashlight found in Frank's room, crawling in the cold muddy water, clinging to the budding grass.
The grass, like a very patient lizard, left Frank's house little by little.
Wei Ran did not go far at all. He hid in the shadow of a building and observed the house he had just left. Until he was sure that no one was passing by, he ducked and circled back to the back of the Siren Tavern.
Glancing at his bedroom on the third floor of the tavern, a weak candle had been lit as agreed. He immediately took out the pocket watch that Artur had given him and took a look at it. Then he slowly turned around, pressed against the wet turf, and faced
Climbing slowly through the oak forest to the north of the tavern.
Thanks to the cover of the heavy rain, he was not discovered by anyone until he entered the oak forest. Even before entering the oak forest, he discovered a German soldier hiding under a tent made of raincoats and secretly smoking.
Without daring to waste too much time, Wei Ranmao hunkered down and moved quickly through the oak forest, and finally found a small hunter's cabin in the deepest part.
Carefully approaching the door of the hunter's cabin, Wei Ran lay on his stomach and looked through the window, which was only as big as a bowl. Not to mention, the cabin was dark, and there was an unpleasant smell of excrement. Moreover, he didn't wait.
He could see clearly that a big wet nose had protruded from the small and pitiful hole, and then he heard a crunching sound of teeth.
Wei Ran touched the tip of his nose with lingering fear. Fortunately, he had retreated in time, otherwise his nose would have been bitten off just by that blow.
"Can I ride this crap?"
Wei Ran hesitated for a moment, and finally opened the chain that was wrapped around the fence door several times. With the help of the flashlight covered with a layer of cloth, he could barely see clearly the strong black horse that kept snoring.
"Don't bite me. If you dare to bite me, I will stew you."
Wei Ran swallowed and carefully stretched out his hand to the reins tied to the pillar. At most, he had only experienced horse riding in domestic grassland scenic spots before, and even then, he still let the groom lead him.
. So to put it simply, he can only be regarded as a theoretical person at best.
But if he only relied on his own two legs, the 14-kilometer round trip would not be enough for him to get back to the Siren Tavern before dawn.
Just when he stretched out his hand in fear and held the reins tremblingly, Wei Ran suddenly felt a familiar feeling that seemed familiar. It was not until this moment that he realized that the skill task he had completed had made him
What I learned was riding a horse!
“This is such a huge profit!”
Wei Ran lost his timidity the moment he took hold of the reins. He felt an indescribable sense of familiarity, as if he had learned massage and bone-setting.
And the reason why he said he made a lot of money is naturally because after so many visits, the battlefield he returned to most often was the battlefield of World War II. On the battlefield around 1940, even if he was blown away by the Germans of later generations, there was nothing in the sky or on the earth.
The mechanized German army also relied heavily on mules and horses for transportation and transportation.
In other words, in the 21st century, this horse riding skill may be a pretentious sport for the rich, but in World War II, it was a real BUFF that increased movement speed.
With a smile on his face, he led the black horse out and tied it to the railing. Wei Ran turned on the flashlight again, and with the faint light, he found a saddle, a whip and a bag full of soybeans and beans from the wooden house.
Wheat's canvas bag. Not to mention, there is a rusty cavalry sword hanging on the other wall!
Wei Ran found an iron bucket from the wooden house, poured out a small half bucket of beans and wheat from the canvas bag, and placed it in front of the black horse that was still snoring. At the same time, he naturally stroked and patted it gently.
A long and powerful neck. It was not until the horse lowered its head and put its mouth into the iron bucket that he breathed a sigh of relief.
While the horse was eating its pre-departure meal, Wei Ran, who couldn't hold back his curiosity, after fixing the saddle, reached out and took off the cavalry sword hanging on the wall, pulling it out of the almost rotten scabbard.
came out.
With just one glance, he recognized that the almost rusty cavalry sword was the standard heavy cavalry sword used by Germany during World War I.
"It's a very good thing, but it's rotten by moisture and horse manure in a place like this."
Wei Ran shook his head with regret. This thing was not cheap in his time. When he followed Professor Alexai to visit various underground trading markets, he once saw one that was in almost perfect condition and had never been sharpened.
The heavy cavalry sword, when that sword was sent to the underground auction house, the starting price alone had already reached a frightening five-digit US dollar.
But where did this thing come from?
Wei Ran held his heavy cavalry sword that was no longer sharp and thought to himself that when he was acting at Frank's house just now, he exchanged a lot of information through that newspaper.
Among other things, he at least knew that the Romeo who was originally in the basement was hiding in a small village near Kiel Port as a primary school teacher. And the information obtained by the Siren Tavern had always been obtained by Frank through the postman.
The identity is sent to Romeo, who then contacts the next family.
But not long ago, Romeo attracted the attention of chain dog Adam without any warning and exposed his identity. But how exactly he was exposed, Frank didn't know.
Now, Romeo's injuries have not healed yet, but he has been given a new meeting place and person. If there is nothing strange in this, I am afraid that the horse around him will not believe it.
In addition to this suspicious point that makes Wei Ran secretly wary of Romeo, this stable, which is only a few hundred meters away from the Siren Tavern, is even more abnormal.
After all, Artur and others fled from Poland a few years ago. It is normal for them to hide some pistols and submachine guns here. They also hide a cavalry sword from the First World War and a horse that needs regular care.
No matter how you think about it, it’s awkward.
Before he could figure out the reason, the bad-tempered and biting black horse had already kicked over the iron bucket that it had emptied. The clanking noise not only startled Wei Ran, but also made Wei Ran jump.
He wished he could chop off this bastard's leg with a knife.
Glancing at the heavy cavalry sword in his hand, Wei Ran accidentally did not put it back to its original position. Instead, he took it in his hand and turned directly onto the horse. Holding the reins with one hand, he leaned his upper body on the horse's back and used the heavy sword on his back.
A gentle slap on the horse's butt. The horse immediately spread its hooves and ran out of the oak forest.
