Chapter 7 [Seeing the Light Again] (Part 2)
At six o'clock in the evening, Jin Xuri's driver drove his jeep to pick up Xiao Yu. He brought Xiao Yu a special dress for Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu changed his clothes and drove towards Bupuri with the driver.
It was already dark. While Xiao Yu looked at the scenery on both sides of the road, he chatted with the driver in two Korean words he had just learned. He couldn't continue talking without saying a few words. Both of them looked at each other and smiled foolishly.
It is about a forty-minute drive from the Military Region Hospital to the fireworks. The jeep stops in the southern suburbs of Bupuri. This is also the location of a military region. The place where the fireworks are prepared was originally a shooting range.
In line with the purpose of military-civilian party, in addition to the soldiers from the military region, many citizens arrived here from Bupuri tonight. When Xiao Yu arrived, the shooting range was already crowded.
The driver led Xiao Yu to the southeast corner of the shooting range, where a three-story stand was temporarily set up. There were soldiers guarding him, leaving a special place for the leaders and relatives of the military region.
Jin Xuri was already waiting in the stands. What surprised Xiao Yu was that he was not wearing military uniform today. The well-fitting black leather coat made his burly figure more and more tall, and his every move was full of the male tough temperament. Seeing Xiao Yu, he walked over with a smile: "Welcome!" He said in standard Chinese.
Xiao Yu shook hands with him, and Jin Xuri led Xiao Yu to the stand. Their location was on the right side of the stand. Xiao Yu noticed that no one had sat in the center, and it was probably left for General Jin Changjie.
His guess was proven immediately. At 7:30, two military jeeps drove to the front of the stands one after another. A tall middle-aged soldier walked out of the jeep behind. He smiled and said something in Korean. The door of the jeep in front also opened. A tall girl in military uniform jumped out of the car. Her height should be about 1.75 meters tall and had a good figure. The combined military uniform added a bit of wildness and sassiness to her. Her black hair was tied in the military cap, and a strand of hair hanging out on her forehead, just rightly emphasizing the unique tenderness of women. Her skin was very white and she shone like ivory in the dark night. Xiao Yu had been in North Korea for a while, but he had never seen such an outstanding girl.
Her outstandingness is not only because of her beautiful appearance, but more importantly, her body is filled with a kind of confidence and nobility, which is extremely rare among North Korean girls.
The girl saw Jin Xuri running towards him happily and talked to him kindly in Korean. For a moment, Xiao Yu was left alone. Jin Xuri thought of Xiao Yu next to her for a long time, introduced Xiao Yu to the girl in Korean, and said to Xiao Yu in Chinese: "This is my sister Shunji, she is studying at Peking University now!"
Kim Soon-ji knew that Xiao Yu was Chinese and said to him in standard Mandarin: "Hello, welcome to North Korea." Xiao Yu smiled bitterly. The price of visiting North Korea this time was terrible, and he still had the mark of being in jail.
General Jin Changjie also came to them, and Jin Xuri shouted respectfully: "Father, this is the Xiao Yu I mentioned to you!" Jin Changjie looked at Xiao Yu coldly, nodded, and sat in the middle.
The two guards placed the microphone in front of him, and warm applause rang out from the audience. Jin Changjie gave the leader a regular blessing and then started speaking. His speech was very short and he ended in less than three minutes.
The fireworks performance officially began. Jin Xuri and her sister were chatting and laughing in a low voice. Perhaps because of Xiao Yu being a guest, their conversations were all conducted in Chinese. Jin Soon-ji talked vividly about the situation of racing with her father on the way she came just now, and she smiled knowingly from time to time.
Jin Xuri asked Xiao Yu, "Is Mr. Xiao interested in racing?" Xiao Yu nodded: "I have played it several times, but my level is not very good." Jin Shunji smiled and said, "I find that Chinese people are particularly modest." Xiao Yu also laughed: "I am seeking truth from facts."
A bright light rose from the center of the venue, announcing the official start of the fireworks party. The crowd began to cheer. North Koreans who lacked cultural and entertainment life rarely had such an opportunity to vent their heart's content.
Bouquets of fireworks bloomed in the black sky, decorating the entire night sky with great beauty. Xiao Yu was intoxicated by this rare joy and harmony.
The fireworks party lasted for about forty minutes. When it was approaching, people flocked to the middle of the venue and began to sing and dance, and many soldiers joined them.
At this time, Xiao Yu saw a middle-aged man running quickly towards the stands. He raised his hand and threw a ball of things into the stands. Xiao Yu reacted very quickly. He turned around and pulled Jin Shunji to the ground. An explosion came from behind. The stands collapsed down with a loud bang. Xiao Yu and Jin Shunji fell from the stands more than five meters high. Xiao Yu subconsciously held her soft body in his arms. His back fell heavily to the ground. Jin Shunji was not hurt because of Xiao Yu under him, but Xiao Yu fell heavily. It took him a long time to recover.
The scene became chaotic because of this sudden explosion. The terrified people fled everywhere. A young soldier wanted to control the order of the scene and fired a shot into the sky. This not only did not calm down, but instead made the people on the scene even more panic.
"Are you okay?" Jin Soon-ji asked with concern. Xiao Yu shook his head. Jin Soon-ji helped him get up from the ground and immediately fell into a crowd again.
Xiao Yu surrounded Kim Soon-ji in his arms to prevent the running crowd from knocking them down. Kim Soon-ji looked in the direction of the collapse of the stands with concern. Her father had already evacuated in the direction of the car under the protection of his brother and several guards.
Xiao Yu pulled Jin Shunji and squeezed in the direction of the car, but the crowd pushed them to the opposite position. Jin Shunji suddenly broke away from Xiao Yu's arms and rushed behind him, picking up a knocked little girl from the feet of the crowd. But before she could stand up, people had already knocked her to the ground.
Xiao Yu pushed the crowd away like crazy, and threw his body on Jin Shunji and the little girl. His feet were light or heavy on him. After about three minutes, the abortion around them gradually became rare. Xiao Yu turned down from Jin Shunji weakly, and his body was covered with scars. The pain made cold sweat on his forehead. Jin Shunji helped the girl up, believing that she was not hurt. The girl finally saw her parents looking for her in the distance and ran over crying.
Jin Shunji's pretty face was also covered with a lot of dust, and she tried to help Xiao Yu up. Xiao Yu waved his hand in pain: "Don't touch me... let me lie for a while..." He was indeed trampled this time.
Jin Shunji was so worried that she almost burst into tears: "It's all my fault... Otherwise you wouldn't be injured..." Xiao Yu forced a smile and sat up with her help. He tried to slowly move the joints of his limbs. The bones should be nothing serious, so he felt relieved.
At this time, Jin Xuri led six soldiers to come to them: "Sunji! Are you okay?" Shunji shook her head: "Where is Dad?"
"I asked someone to send him back to the military region first!" Jin Xuri noticed that Xiao Yu, who was sitting on the ground in a mess, laughed: "Mr. Xiao is really a bit like our North Korean soldier!"
Xiao Yu smiled bitterly and said, "Have you ever seen such a messy soldier?" Shunji couldn't help laughing.
Considering Xiao Yu's injuries, Jin Xuri did not ask someone to send Xiao Yu back to the hospital, but invited him to live at his home not far from here.
Xiao Yu hung up the phone to the hospital, reassuring Huo Yuan and Hu Zhongwu.
General Jin Changjie lived in a separate courtyard, with two glass greenhouses built in about three acres of courtyards. One greenhouse contains various bonsai, and the other greenhouse contains several common types of green vegetables.
The main building is a three-story flat-topped building. The first floor is the reception room. Jin Changjie and his wife live on the second floor. The third floor is Jin Shunji's boudoir. Jin Xuri lives in a two-story building on the east side of the yard.
Xiao Yu helped him down to his small building with Jin Xuri's support. The interior layout was very simple. Jin Xuri helped Xiao Yu sit down on the sofa in the living room and poured him a glass of water.
Xiao Yu smiled and said, "I never dreamed that you, the colonel, would serve me personally."
Jin Xuri smiled and showed her white teeth. He turned on the TV in the living room, Xiao Yu picked up the remote control beside him, and pressed it all the same channel. He wondered, "You won't be the only one station, right?"
Jin Xuri nodded: "We can only receive national television stations."
At this time, the door was politely knocked. Jin Soon-hee changed into Korean national costumes and walked in with a femininity. She put the medicine in her hand on the coffee table in front of Xiao Yu: "I haven't had time to say thank you just now!"
Jin Xuri said: "If you really want to thank Mr. Xiao, go to the kitchen to make some food for us. Mr. Xiao must be hungry!" Shunji smiled and said to her brother, "I'm afraid you're hungry!" She turned around and walked out the door.
Jin Xuri connected another antenna to the TV and opened the satellite reception box. Xiao Yu said: "You have really many institutions here!"
Jin Xuri said: "As long as you think a little, you can be synchronized with the world no matter where you are." Xiao Yu heard that there seemed to be another meaning in his words.
Jin Xuri said: "I have already talked to my father. I will help you with the identities of the three of you as soon as possible!"
Xiao Yu nodded gratefully.
"But you may have to live in another identity in the future..." Jin Xuri paused for a moment before saying, "I will send your ashes and death statements to the Taiwan police. Everything you have in the past will completely disappear in this world."
