The weather is no longer so cold, but the snow on the roadside has not yet melted. There is still white mist billowing as I speak. It is still very painful to go out without wearing thick cotton clothes.
Aunt Shilin found that Rewind Port was becoming more and more lively, there were more humans, and some streets had begun a new round of renovation.
There is a good vegetable market near their home, and the hawkers who used to sell vegetables have moved in. This makes the street look neater, and a good boutique toy store has opened where they originally bought vegetables.
There is always a group of children gathering there, pointing at the toys in the window. They don’t know who those robots are, but as long as they are not blind, they know that these toys must be very fun.
The red robot can turn into a truck, and the yellow robot can turn into a car. For elf children, these things are a new world they have never seen before.
Several children were arguing about which of the robots displayed in the store was more powerful. A few older children firmly believed in their judgment: the one that can transform into a tank must be the most powerful, at least much more powerful than the one that transforms into a truck.
Already.
Several children had different opinions. In their opinion, the big one must be the most powerful, and the big red one must be particularly powerful.
Naturally, their argument will be fruitless. Maybe after a year or two, when they have TV sets in their homes and can watch many TV programs, they will know that there is something called cartoons, and there is a cartoon.
It's called "Transformers."
This is a memory unique to children of this era. Years later when they mention these things, they will smile knowingly: How many people have debated whether the gender of Saint Andromeda is male or female?
Shirin is very willing to see these changes in Rewind Port, because she knows that her two sons are still alive, so she is full of hope for life now.
For her, the world is getting better and better, which is evident from the increasing number of cars on the streets.
Some humans were talking to themselves with a very small gadget. Shireen once thought that these people were crazy. But then Charlie told her that it was a device that could make calls, and Shireen was completely fascinated by the Tang Empire.
The science and technology shocked me.
It turns out that a phone does not have to have a line. It turns out that pictures thousands of kilometers away can be transmitted to the eyes through images, allowing people to see everything happening in the distance very intuitively.
These things that are unimaginable to elves are becoming more and more popular over time. And for the people served by these new technologies, life will naturally become more fulfilling and richer.
When Shilin walked back to the door of her familiar home, she saw a thin figure standing at the door. Shilin was not worried about evildoers, because the security of Rewind Port under the management of the Tang Empire was really good.
It may be an exaggeration to say that the house is open at night, but compared to the past, those annoying gangsters and extortionate officials are indeed gone.
"Who are you looking for?" Shirin asked habitually. On the one hand, she wanted to confirm the other party's identity and the purpose of coming here. On the other hand, she also hoped to help the other party as little as possible.
The figure turned around, one sleeve swinging unnaturally. When she saw that familiar yet slightly unfamiliar face, Shirin's whole body shivered for a moment.
"Mom!" Frank couldn't stop the tears in his eyes. He dropped the satchel in his hand, rushed to Shireen in three steps at a time, stretched out his arms and hugged his mother tightly.
Shireen also hugged her children tightly. After such a long time, she really missed her two sons: "Frank! You are finally back! You are back!"
When the two separated, Shireen noticed Frank's empty sleeve. Although she was sad, she still kept nodding: "It's good to be back! It's a good thing to be back! Everything has passed, everything has passed. I'm so sorry
child!"
"I know, don't worry about me, Mom." Frank couldn't stop crying. For him, this was all too much of a coincidence.
Even he himself didn't dare to think that he could get out of the prisoner of war camp and return to his home in Port Rewind: for him, the whole process seemed a bit magical.
First of all, he would like to thank the Tang Empire for its willingness to provide home letter services for all prisoners whose homes are in Rewind Port. Without this good thing, he would not even know if his mother and brother Marvin were alive.
Secondly, he would also like to thank an enthusiastic courier who reported to his superiors the fact that both prisoners of war wrote letters to Shilin. Later, the matter of one mother and two children of prisoners of war was known to the Tang military.
Then they also want to thank the Tang Empire for its series of appeasing actions that set an example for the elves: Marvin and Frank have become models and role models. Their treatment will give hope to many elven prisoners of war, so the Tang Empire is willing to
Provide some help to two POW brothers.
In the end, it was the contribution of Marvin, the younger brother: he agreed to a labor reform program. He was willing to work for the Tang Empire for free for five years in exchange for his brother being able to regain his freedom immediately. He was a good brother, so Frank immediately
I received a pardon and a boat ticket back to Rewind Port.
The trains and cars going south are very busy, but the shipping traffic between Everwinter Port, Saint-Lo and Rewind Port has increased, which can often squeeze out some transport capacity. Transporting these prisoners of war and carrying some cargo is a huge task for a giant ship.
It's not difficult either.
A series of coincidences and the efforts of many people finally made Frank stand in front of Shirin. Many prisoners of war saw all this, and their internal newspapers reported the story of the Tang Empire releasing the first batch of prisoners of war, which also made everyone
The prisoners of war were completely relieved. They were now sure that as long as they worked hard and cooperated with the arrangements of the Tang Empire, they would be able to return home safely sooner or later.
"Marvin has paid so much for me." Frank told Shireen the reason why he came back: "I don't know how to thank him... As I am now, I may not be able to repay him in my life."
"He is your brother, Frank. He knows what he is doing." Shireen was proud of her little son: "Don't be discouraged. Your brother has replaced you, so you must live well and do well for him.
alive."
"I will live well, Mom." Frank forced a smile: "I have already died once. Frankly speaking... I don't have the courage to face death again."
