Three days later at night, Zhang Tianhao and Carla arrived in Tianjin. The journey was almost peaceful. Except for the Japanese who were a little strict in their investigation, there were no other accidents.
And that kind of accident doesn't happen often.
Inside the Tianjin Consulate, Zhang Tianhao followed Kara and handed the documents to the ambassador before coming out.
That's the thing, if you hand in the documents directly, you have completed the task.
"By the way, Miss Carla, how long are we going to stay here?"
"Mr. Qin, do you have something wrong?"
"Well, the war has been going on in Shanghai for a long time now. I want to go back and see. My uncle's family has been in Shanghai. I don't know what's going on now?"
"Qin, why do you think of going to Shanghai? Shanghai is not a good place to go now. I heard that Shanghai has been destroyed. Many people die every day. What can you do if you go!"
When Carla heard that Zhang Tianhao was going to Shanghai, she was a little stunned and directly advised him.
"Well, I don't know how long the current war will last. I really can't live this life. Kara, when will you leave? I want to take a period of leave and then go back to take a look. They live in the concession.
Relatively speaking, it’s safer.”
"Qin, have you really decided? This is no joke!"
"Well, I really decided to go back, otherwise I would feel a little worried. Damn little Japan, what kind of war can we fight if we have nothing to do? Life is so good!"
"Okay, but I'm going back tomorrow. There's nothing going on for a while. You can go back. If you meet the Japanese, just say that you are a staff member of the embassy. I believe they won't embarrass you.
your."
Kara stared at Zhang Tianhao's eyes, looked carefully, and then said seriously.
"In a moment, I will ask the embassy to issue you a certificate. By then, if you encounter other accidents, you will still have a chance to survive."
"Thank you, Kara!"
"You're welcome. You are a rare talent. It can be said that Xinjing has you, which makes me feel relieved. However, I can't stay here much longer. I will go back tomorrow. If possible, just be careful."
…
On September 15, Zhang Tianhao arrived in Nanjing with great difficulty.
It can be said that his experience along the way allowed him to really see the ferocity of the Japanese. Wherever the Japanese went, there was almost nothing that could be inhabited.
Just along the way, he took the train and was checked more than a dozen times before he arrived in Nanjing.
What originally took two days to achieve, ended up being stretched to four days.
With a tired look on his face, he went to the Dingjiaqiao headquarters immediately.
When the time reached around six o'clock in the evening, the sky had already darkened, and he finally arrived at the Nanjing headquarters in a rickshaw.
"who?"
When he arrived at the headquarters, the guards outside immediately stopped him.
"I am Zhang Tianhao, and this is my ID. I want to see Director Xu!" He took out his ID directly and handed it to the other party for inspection. After all, not many people knew about it when he came.
The guard took the ID, looked at it, and then registered.
At this time, Xu Zengen did not leave the office. After all, he would not be early tonight. Because the war in Shanghai had been going on for more than a month, troops from all over the country could not help but send troops to the front.
How could he, the leader of the Central Government, sleep?
"Director, a lieutenant colonel named Zhang Tianhao is here and wants to see you!" The guard on the other end of the phone called directly to his desk.
"What, Tianhao is back, let someone bring him in, bring him in!"
When Xu Zengen heard that Zhang Tianhao was back, he was stunned and asked the guard to bring him in.
He remembered that he asked Zhang Tianhao to come back to report on his work a week ago, but he did not expect that he would arrive today.
"yes!"
Soon, Zhang Tianhao was taken to his office, and Zhang Tianhao found that there were many staff members in the entire office building who had not gotten off work.
Everyone's footsteps are in a hurry, which is different from usual.
The shadow of war has shrouded everyone's heads, and even many people's faces have become tense, as if they have changed into different people, nervous and busy.
"Report!"
"Come in!"
In Xu Zengen's office, Zhang Tianhao stood at the door and made a report. He was in plain clothes and even looked a little messy.
His face was dusty.
Xu Zengen looked up and saw Zhang Tianhao standing at the door. He recognized him at a glance and couldn't help but stand up with a smile.
"Tianhao, here you go, sit down, sit down!"
"Thank you, director!"
Zhang Tianhao walked in immediately and stood in front of his desk. He was not qualified to sit down. Don't take yourself too seriously.
"Hey, have you just arrived in Nanjing?"
Seeing Zhang Tianhao's tired face, even his hair a little messy, and even his clothes a little shabby, I couldn't help but be stunned.
"Yes, the director asked me to come back as soon as possible to report on my work, so I rushed back when there was a train the next day. After all, the director asked me to come back, so I had to come back as soon as possible. After all, I am a soldier and only obey orders.
It’s the first element.”
"Okay, well said. It seems that your experience in Xinjing has made you somewhat mature, and you are not as impulsive as before!"
"This is all the director's teachings. If it weren't for the director, I would have had the opportunity to go to Northeast China to practice. I can't thank the director enough." Zhang Tianhao politely put the credit on Xu Zengsi's head.
"Okay, sit down. Someone, come here, get stationmaster Zhang a basin of water, pour a cup of tea, and prepare some dinner. Stationmaster Zhang and I will have some food at the station first."
"Ah, director, haven't you eaten yet? Director, you can take care of yourself, you are our backbone! I heard in Xinjing that the director often doesn't go home and sleeps at the headquarters. He often works until midnight."
Zhang Tianhao flattered him directly. Although his words were a bit false, Xu Zengen was still the boss.
"You kid, how can you talk so much? You can still hear my news about Nanjing in Xinjing. Can you make it more pleasant? It's fake, it's too fake."
"It's not false at all. If you don't believe me, go out and ask to see if what I say is right. The director considers the unit as his home and is exactly the role model we are waiting for."
"You boy, you really have a way. Clean up first, and then we sit down and talk. You can be our great hero and make the Japanese in Xinjing suffer a lot. They hate you to death."
"My subordinates haven't done enough. I hate the same person and can't kill more Japanese devils. My subordinates are still incompetent. Director Zhang has been embarrassed."
Zhang Tianhao still kept a low profile, stood up directly, saluted, and said very politely.
"You, you, you are too humble for me. I don't have so many things to pay attention to here. I am not one of those people who is jealous of your ability, hahaha!"
Zhang Tianhao smiled sheepishly, and then ran to wash his face. After all, there was a lot of dust along the way, and the train also passed through the Japanese-occupied area.
As Secretary Huang came over with water and washed his face and hands, he felt that his whole body was much refreshed, and even his whole body was full of energy.
If his clothes weren't a little dusty and dirty, he looked like a good young man. The only thing that was wrong was that Zhang Tianhao's eyes were a little red, and he obviously hadn't slept for some time.
