After Wei Ran made his intention clear, both Howard and Chen Qi readily accepted his interview request.
Under the leadership of the two of them, Wei Ran walked into a classroom with a red cross on the door.
In addition to a few beds, there are some simple medical equipment in this classroom. In addition, there are various medicines placed in the cabinets, as well as kerosene gas lamps hanging above the head for emergency use, and a lamp in the center of the room.
Briquette stove for heating.
After Howard closed the door, Chen Qiye warmly greeted Wei Ran to sit down, and then poured him half a cup of hot hawthorn leaf tea.
It was just as the door closed that Wei Ran was surprised to find that behind the door, there was actually a white pullover worn by athletes participating in the sports games hanging on a hanger. On the pullover, there were also vigorous
The calligraphy written in calligraphy reads "Down with imperialism! Long live the great unity of the people of the world!"
After coming back to his senses, Wei Ran looked away. After Chen Qi and Howard sat down one after another, he asked curiously, "Does Dr. Chen always work here? I don't think I have seen you before."
"of course not"
Chen Qi explained in proficient English, "I was specially transferred here to help temporarily for this sports meeting. In fact, half a month ago, I was still fighting on the front line."
"Indeed it is"
Howard poured himself a cup of hawthorn leaf tea and said, "When he came, he could even smell gunpowder smoke."
"Mr. Howard, how does it feel to work with Chinese doctors?" Wei Ran changed the interviewee and asked with a smile.
"Chen is a very patient person"
Howard spread his hands, "Like all the Chinese soldiers I have seen since becoming a prisoner of war, their beliefs are very clear and they always have good intentions. To be honest, I really don't understand why that idiot Truman chose such an enemy.
Of course, I also have to admit that in terms of medical skills, the Chinese medical skills used by Chen are really amazing. Many diseases can be significantly improved with just a few pricks with a sewing needle. This was the first time I saw him using sewing needles.
Needle..."
"Acupuncture"
A Chinese word popped out of Chen Qi's mouth, then he changed to English and corrected with a smile, "Mr. Howard, that's not a sewing needle, it's acupuncture."
"Okay, pour the wine!"
Howard spread his hands and said an off-key Chinese word with a completely different meaning, "Anyway, it is a very magical medical method. I am even considering whether to go to China to learn this technology after the war is over. It is completely
It broke the medical system and knowledge I was exposed to."
"Mr. Howard's medical skills are also worth learning," Chen Qi said with a smile, "especially the surgical experience you impart is very practical."
"No, no, no..." Howard quickly waved his hand and started chatting about the professional topic between Chinese medicine and Western medicine as if no one else was around.
Seeing that the conversation and interview were going astray, Wei Ran just raised his camera and took a group photo of the two doctors who were expressing their views across the desk.
"Sorry," Howard said apologetically after reacting, "Every time Chen and I talk about medical issues, we always ignore the people around us."
"it does not matter"
Wei Ran waved his hands carelessly and was about to say something when a muffled sneeze came from under the bed at the end of the room.
"Who's there?!"
Howard immediately shouted and subconsciously picked up the coal hook hanging on the briquette stove, while Chen Qi directly guarded the door.
"It's me, Teacher Howard, it's me!"
While they were talking, a blond young man came out from under the bed and said with an embarrassed look, "Teacher, didn't you go to dinner? Why..."
"First of all, I'm not your teacher! Secondly, Bruno? Why are you under the bed?!"
There was obvious disgust in Dr. Howard's tone. Then he realized it and asked with a frown, "Are you here to steal medicines?"
"No..." The blond young man waved his hands repeatedly, "I... I just..."
"Raise your hand!"
Howard snorted coldly, "Either let me search you honestly, or I'll call the Chinese soldiers to come and take you away, and you and your teammates will be disqualified from the game!"
Hearing this, the soldier named Bruno gritted his teeth, raised his hands reluctantly, and allowed Howard to rummage through some medicines from his trouser pockets.
"This is an insult to medicine and an insult to sportsmanship!"
Howard snorted disdainfully, and then said apologetically, "Chen, come and search him for the second time. He must have come here to steal medicine for tomorrow's football elimination game."
After hearing this, Chen Qi hesitated for a moment and carefully checked the young man named Bruno. It wasn't until he stopped and found nothing that Howard asked, "Should we report it? This is shameful
Cheating."
Hearing this, Chen Qi took the medicine bottle from Howard's hand and looked at it. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Forget it, Bruno, we won't report this matter for the time being, but how about you stop playing in your game tomorrow?"
?
You must know that if we report it, your team will be directly disqualified from the competition. But since you have been caught stealing medicines, it means that at least your teammates have not obtained the medicines you stole. So I just
I ask you to give up the opportunity to participate and replace your substitute players so that your mistakes will not affect your teammates. Do you have any objections?"
Bruno opened his mouth, but finally nodded angrily, "I have no objection."
"Mr. Victor, how about taking a photo of him taking stolen goods?"
While Chen Qi was speaking, he handed the medicine bottles he had just received from Howard to Bruno. The latter also seemed to be a habitual offender, familiarly holding the medicine bottles on his chest and pointing them at Wei.
Ran, and at the same time rolled his eyes, his young face was also full of regret and unruliness.
"No problem at all"
As Wei Ran spoke, he pointed the camera at the young man named Bruno, chose the ugliest angle and pressed the shutter.
After taking the incriminating photos, Bruno stuffed all the medicine bottles in his hand to Chen Qi, opened the door, turned around and ran out of the medical room without saying a word.
"Is he your student?" Wei Ran asked curiously.
"no"
Howard denied it without thinking, "When Bronaugh first joined the army, he was recommended to become a veterinarian by me after interning under me for a few days. I didn't teach him anything. Of course, even so, he just What I did made me feel very ashamed.”
“Don’t take it too seriously”
Chen Qi waved his hand, "I believe he will realize his mistake, and hasn't he already paid the corresponding price? Besides, our medicine has not been lost."
"But as an American, seeing my compatriots do such despicable things with my own eyes still makes me feel like a clown." Howard sighed, and then fell into silence with some disinterest.
Seeing this, Wei Ran changed the subject and asked, "Mr. Howard, before you talk about professional issues that I don't understand, you once said that you plan to go to China to learn this kind of medical skills after the war is over?"
"right!"
Talking about medical skills, a smile appeared on Howard's face again, "I'm even going to study with Chen for a while, at least to understand...Chen, what's that called?"
"Acupuncture," Chen Qi reminded, dumbfounded.
"Yes! That's the one!"
Howard patted his thigh and said, "At least we need to understand the working principle of poisonous wine. I have a hunch that this medical technology will definitely shine in the future."
Howard, who had no idea he had said the wrong name again, became increasingly excited, "Of course, if I can learn it by then, I may have to figure out the Chinese medical system.
Ever since I saw Chen using a few sewing needles... acupuncture, whatever it's called, after I saw him use those needles to heal an Englishman with a sprained ankle, I've been interested in all things Chinese. Yes, I even made an agreement with Chen."
"What agreement?"
Wei Ran asked curiously. Chen Qi, who had become taciturn, had never told him these things before. Before that, he had never even thought that he would have the opportunity to see the sunny and cheerful Chen Qi again in this era. .
"We exchanged pens"
As Howard spoke, he had already pulled out a pale gold pen from his jacket pocket, and then pointed to the Parker pen in Chen Qi's jacket pocket and said, "We exchanged our pens, and that Parker pen is the only one I have. The most valuable thing was a gift given to me by my mentor when I graduated."
Hearing this, Chen Qi also took out the Parker pen from his jacket pocket and said with a smile, "He said that after the war is over, he will come to me to learn medical skills, and he will replace the pen with me after he has learned it.
You Americans are really interesting, but as long as we all survive until the end of the war, I will definitely treat Howard well if he comes to see me."
"I will also bring you enough medical books." As Howard spoke, he put the pen in his hand back into his coat pocket.
"Can you tell me about that jumper?"
Wei Ran pointed to the clothes hanging on the door and asked his doubts. He was now sure that the cap badge was given to him by Morgan's future son, but he still couldn't figure out why this pullover appeared in the room.
In the medical room.
"That's my reward for serving this Games!"
Howard said with a proud face, "The Chinese characters on it were written by Director Wang of the prisoner management office."
"Howard, do you want me to take a picture for you?" Wei Ran asked, pointing to the pullover hanging on the door.
"sure!"
While Howard was speaking, he had already stood up and taken off the dress, and while putting it on, he said, "After you finish filming, you need to leave your name on it."
"Leave your name on it?" Wei Ran was stunned and asked subconsciously, "Why?"
"From a medical perspective, people's memories will always be forgotten."
Howard said while changing clothes, "But if we can leave something memorable, such as the pens that Chen and I exchanged, or the names we signed, this beautiful memory will be preserved forever."
"He used this set of fallacies to get many people to sign their names on this dress."
Chen Qi pointed to the word "Chen Qi" written on the sleeve of this pullover and said, "This is my name."
Before Wei Ran could open his mouth, he pointed to the words "Wang Yanggong" on his chest and said, "This is the name of Director Wang of the prisoner management office. He wrote those calligraphy words in calligraphy."
Chen Qi moved his fingertips slightly and pointed to some names written in Chinese characters around him to help introduce, "Many of these are the names of the prisoner management personnel in the prisoner of war camp. The other English names are all those who know Howard."
"It was written down by people who had recently received treatment from him, and in his words, these were the fees left by those people."
After walking around Howard, Wei Ran found the names of Drew and others on the back of the pullover. These scum even used almost graffiti-like handwriting to mark their names as if they were occupying a piece of land.
Seems to be circled together.
Taking out the pen from the metal book, Wei Ran arrogantly found a corner of the circle and wrote the name he was currently wearing in English. Then he wrote next to a female name like "Chen Wan"
The word "Wei Ran" was added.
Although he didn't know if the name of this bookish woman was the female warrior surnamed Chen who had given him the scarf, but he would rather believe that it was her. At least, it meant that the other person was still alive at this time.
After signing his name, Wei Ran raised his camera to take a photo of Howard, and then took a group photo of the two of them.
"Dr. Chen, when the war is over, can I also visit your home?" Wei Ran put away the camera and asked the last question in his heart.
"Yes, of course!"
Chen Qi responded enthusiastically, "Actually, it's not just you. Morgan and Brendan, who just brought you to us, are also planning to visit China after the war. They also want me to be their tour guide."
"They want to go too?" Wei Ran asked in surprise.
"certainly"
Chen Qi smiled and said, "Speaking of which, the two of them were prisoners captured by my comrades. I even did the interrogation of them at that time. I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to see them here."
, and even became friends with several of them.”
"I believe this will definitely become a beautiful memory for each of you."
Wei Ran, who had no regrets in his heart, glanced at the dial on Howard's wrist without leaving a trace, and while putting away the plastic notebook with not many words written on it, he said, "Two doctors, my interview is over, you guys should go as well.
Let’s finish eating.”
"Let's go together," Chen Qi invited enthusiastically, "I heard that the cafeteria prepared a lot of delicious food today."
"You're right, let's go together!"
Howard said while taking off the jumper he had just put on for taking pictures, "After dinner, we can watch the show in the Second Prisoner of War Camp together. Their show is very interesting. It is said to be about Americans playing golf.
The story of the ball.”
"I won't go"
Wei Ran declined politely, "While I'm at it, I'm going to interview other people, but if I have time in the evening, I will go and watch the show with you."
"Then it's settled!"
Howard and Wei Ran bumped fists, and the latter shook hands with Chen Qi. Then they said goodbye and left the medical room, finding a corner where no one was paying attention and hiding.
A moment later, when Chen Qi and Howard walked to the cafeteria together again, Wei Ran quietly got into the unlocked medical room again, and in the afterglow of dusk, he placed a big red food box on Chen Qi's
on the desk.
The handle of this food box filled with beef jerky, tea, chocolate and other items is also tied with a piece of light yellow paper, with the same sentence written in Chinese and English - These gifts are for the cutest ones.
