Late at night, in the cold attic, I put on headphones, held a British kettle filled with hot water in my hand, and was wrapped in a Soviet cloak. I would stand up and move around from time to time to prevent myself from accidentally falling asleep.

past.

On the table in front of him, the pie oven with amazing battery life was still sizzling and burning a ceramic flowerpot used as a radiator. On the other side of the table some distance away, the BC1000 radio station

, and also continue to wait steadily for the latest news that may appear in the channel at any time.

Just when Wei Ran was about to light a cigarette and wake up, a flashlight beam flashed outside the window. After a brief moment of confusion, he immediately extinguished the pie stove, took off his headphones, put away the kettle and cloak, and stepped across

He stepped closer to the only window in the attic.

I glanced out through the window. Outside the barbed wire fence, a four-wheeled carriage had stopped. At this time, a figure was helping each other out of the car.

Under the constantly shaking flashlight beam, Wei Ran could clearly see familiar little faces—the injured children had arrived!

Putting away the loaded 1911 pistol, Wei Ran went downstairs as quickly as possible, opened the door and ran out. However, he had no idea that at this time, on the table in the attic, the headset of the radio was

, and it happened that at this time, there was an irregular ticking sound of varying lengths.

What he missed was not only the encrypted code from Aesop's fables that had been waiting on the radio channel all night. When he ran out, the carriage had also run towards the direction of the town, and the only ones left behind were the characters with various shapes on their bodies.

There are children wrapped in gauze, and they are holding paper bags containing food or square boxes of flashlights for lighting.

Jonas, whose face was wrapped in gauze, was the first to recognize Wei Ran, and immediately shouted in surprise with a trembling voice filled with tears and fear, "Victor! It's Victor!"

"Where is the person who sent you here?" Wei Ran asked, hugging the little guy who was rushing towards him.

The young man who renamed himself "Horst" immediately replied, "The sister said she had an emergency and left beforehand. She asked us to knock on the door ourselves. She said you were in the room."

As he spoke, the young man patted a leather medicine box on his shoulder, "She also asked me to bring this to you."

"Come first"

Wei Ran waved to the slightly flustered children, "Have you had dinner?"

"have eaten"

The girl who inherited the name "Haike" immediately replied, "We had dinner in a tailor shop, I was the first to arrive, and everyone who came later had already had dinner.

It wasn't until we all arrived that the sister sent us over in a carriage, and she also gave each of us a hat and a beautiful and warm scarf!"

"How did you all get here?" As Wei Ran spoke, he once again turned on the chandelier in the hall on the first floor.

In just a few hours, this room has been cleaned by the first wave of children who arrived. Even the scattered oil paintings and various canvases have been received.

place.

Not only that, even the fireplace was burning with scarlet coals, which made the room extra warm.

"I came by train, the same train as you."

The girl who changed her name to Heike continued to respond, "It was nurse sister Hannah who sent me here, but we got off the bus in Brussels and then took a truck to Mons."

“I took a freight train to Brussels, and then took a freight train carrying coal to Mons.”

The young man named Hoster said slightly excitedly, "I don't know the person who sent me here, but the uncle took me to the cab of the train, and I helped blow the whistle. The sound was really loud.

!" "I rushed to the tailor shop by car."

Jonas put down the small suitcase he was carrying and rushed to say, "I don't know the uncle who sent me here, but he bought me a lot of delicious food on the way, and also bought me new clothes and shoes.

Son, they also said that if I want, I can live with them in the future."

"Then why are you here again?" A little girl asked while sipping a lollipop that someone bought for her.

"I want to live with brother Okan." After Jonas finished speaking, he looked at Wei Ran and asked matter-of-factly, "Victor, where is Okan?"

Almost subconsciously, Wei Ran thought of the young man at the edge of the minefield who had an emotional breakdown due to self-blame. However, before he could speak, a young man in pajamas ran down the stairs behind him and hugged him.

He picked up Jonas and said happily, "I'm here! Jonas, why did you come so soon? I thought I had to wait a week!"

Subconsciously turning around, Wei Ran couldn't help but smile after a brief moment of sluggishness. That young man was certainly not Okan who would never come back, but he was Okan - in Dominic's ward yesterday.

When taking a group photo, he swore in front of everyone that he would be Okan from now on, Jonas's brother Okan.

Soon, the question of how everyone got to Mons turned into cheers of reunion as more and more friends came down from the stairs.

Although it was a pity that Dominic and Nadia, who were seriously injured, could not come, it was enough to make every child happy. In particular, almost all of these injured children brought small gifts—all kinds of hats.

and scarves of various colors.

Gifts were shared lively, and while Wei Ran was changing dressings for the wounded, several girls headed by Yuta and Boyi also quickly helped clear out rooms large enough for sleeping, and then lit the fireplaces in these rooms.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After sending the last little guy into the room, Wei Ran yawned, forced himself to sleep and returned to the attic, put on the headphones again, exhausted

Leaning against the extra warm fireplace chimney.

However, just when he was about to take a nap, there was a clear ticking sound in his earphones without any warning!

After regaining consciousness almost instantly, Wei Ran immediately turned on the desk lamp, picked up the pen and paper on the table, and translated the code into groups of numbers.

After searching against these numbers in Aesop's fables, Wei Ran quickly translated a query: "Have you survived? Please establish contact."

It's Timov!

Wei Ran immediately guessed the identity of the person who sent the telegram. However, before he could give a reply, a strong white light appeared in front of his eyes without any warning!

"Is this the end?"

Wei Ran was stunned for a moment. Before he could react, he smelled the unique cold and dampness of the Hürtgen Forest, mixed with a trace of the unique smell that could not be concealed even in winter. When pine branches rot, they gave off a unique smell. At the same time, he also felt

I felt clear waves of pain in my left hand.

Just as he was trying hard to blink his eyes, Timov's voice came to his ears!

"I hope you all reach your destination safely!"

Almost at the same time that Wei Ran, who looked shocked, regained his vision, Captain Timov, who was standing next to him and holding a gun, continued, "I will find a way to contact you through the radio."

"I'm waiting for your radio contact!"

Before Sophie finished speaking, she had already thrown herself into Timov's arms, and then stood on tiptoes for a passionate kiss.

"What the hell?!"

Wei Ran's eyes widened as he looked at the two people hugging each other in front of him. He really didn't understand when the two people became so close.

Is it possible that I need a VIP account to watch that episode? Wei Ran couldn't help but have a ridiculous idea in his mind, and his eyes subconsciously glanced at the tattoo on the tiger's mouth on his left hand, and then he saw the tattoo wrapped in his right hand.

Gauze and missing index finger.

"Victor, let's go!" Just as Wei Ran was stunned,

Timov had separated from Sophie and issued orders while loading the submachine gun in his hand.

"Ah? Here we come!"

Wei Ran quickly glanced at Sophie, who had tears in her eyes, and then at Qiqi, who was busy bandaging Dominic's wounds, and Okan, who was on guard with a gun further away.

and Horst.

However, before he could say anything, Timov pushed his shoulders and urged him to run further and further away.

"We need to draw some firepower"

Just as the people behind him were swallowed up by the thick fog and night, Timov was already speaking, turning on the flashlight, and at the same time, he pointed the trigger of the submachine gun above his head.

"Da da da!"

Almost at the same time that Timov turned off the flashlight, the pursuers immediately fired a string of bullets at them.

What a love brain that even dogs won’t eat! Wei Ran cursed and muttered, and at the same time subconsciously distanced himself slightly from Captain Timov.

Following the American soldier who was stunned by the beauty's kiss, he changed direction and ran all the way. Before he could take a breath, Timov pulled the trigger again, then turned on the flashlight again, hiding behind the tree trunk and swinging wildly.

, trying to attract the attention of the pursuers.

Taking advantage of the opponent's frantic attempt to attract fire, Wei Ran also used the flashlight's flickering light to observe his own situation.

At this time, he was still wearing the civilian clothes and the M43 military boots that he took off from the feet of the corpses of American soldiers as a German soldier, and even the wire cutters from Buck on his back.

They are all here, but the three-piece pilot suit on my head has disappeared somewhere.

If one person plays two roles, aren't you afraid that I'll get involved?

Wei Ran cursed and muttered, and ran out after Timov before the bullets from the pursuers came.

In Timov's crazy seduction, which was like a one-man show, the pursuers followed them and ran further and further away. Even the beams of the flashlight became more and more numerous.

"Victor, how far are we?" Captain Timov asked as he ran.

"how could I know!"

Wei Ran responded with a curse, rounded his arms and threw the flashlight that turned on the switch, and then asked while running, "Is the general direction correct?

"That's right! It should be right! We want to make a big noise"

As Timov spoke, he also rounded his arms and threw a mk2 grenade, and then said, "We have to wake up our people and get them ready. If they respond,

Can give us direction!"

"Don't worry about others yet, run away!" Before Wei Ran could finish his words, the grenade Timov had just thrown had exploded.
