"Yeah" Dominic nodded.

"Dominic, Victor"

Timov, who was walking at the front with his back to the two of them, took a deep breath and said in a serious tone, "I'm sorry that this happened. I was the one who sent the telegram to invite you to meet, but I swear, those Americans

Soldier…"

"alright"

Wei Ran, who had been silent just now, said, "Timov, we never doubted that you found those people. If that were the case, it wouldn't be such a troublesome thing." Lin Cong, Yongfeng Branch District.

"Thank you," Timov replied slowly, "thank you."

For a moment, the cold waterway was silent again, leaving only the sound of the blanket rubbing against the ice, and the footsteps of Timov and Dominic echoing repeatedly along the winding and narrow waterway.

Returning to the mill along the frozen waterway, Timov carried the radiator onto the carriage with the help of Dominic. Then he tied the radiator brought back from the castle tightly to the American oil stove with wires and lit it.

In the center of the carriage's cargo compartment.

"You guys sit tight"

As he spoke, Timov got on the carriage and said slightly nervously, "I can't drive a carriage, so you must sit tight."

"Aren't you an American?" Wei Ran asked deliberately, "I thought you were a cowboy."

Seeing that Wei Ran was willing to chat, Timov also relaxed a little, "It's true that he is an American, but I grew up in Alaska. Have you heard of Alaska? That damn place is so cold in the winter that your nose can freeze off."

"heard about it"

Wei Ran, who had already felt his body starting to get cold, paused. Seeing that the carriage was not moving at all, he simply took the initiative to remind him, "Hold the reins with both hands, and gently pull the reins wherever you turn to make them go faster."

If you click, just shake the reins and throw them on their butts."

"Won't they hit the tree?" Timov tried to shake the reins, and immediately asked nervously as the two draft horses moved forward.

"They are horses, not blind horses."

Wei Ran, whose tone became weaker and weaker, not only made Timov relax again with his jokes, but even Dominic, who was also nervous, couldn't help but laugh. But soon, this young man who had already experienced too many hardships

But he suddenly stopped smiling, and his little face was once again covered with sadness.

"Dominique, it's not your fault."

Wei Ran sighed, "It's not Timov's fault. We can't bring the dead back to life. What we can do is live well for them."

"But…"

"At least you survived, and at least you helped Qiqi and Mr. de Winter kill that bastard." Wei Ran continued to try to comfort him, "You don't need to blame yourself."

"I…"

Dominic wiped the corners of his eyes, only to find that the gauze wet with tears and blood had almost frozen into a cold mask.

"Timov, tell me your story."

Wei Ran tried to divert the young man's attention, "How do you know German? Are there any interesting places in Alaska?"

"My mother is Austrian," Timov said trying to make his tone more relaxed, "Have you ever heard of Saschitzburg in Austria?

"I haven't heard of it." Wei Ran looked at Dominic, "Have you heard of it?"

"heard about it"

Dominic nodded, "That's Mr. Mozart's hometown. When I was young, my father took my mother and I to attend the music festival there. My sister Sophie also went with us."

"I've actually never been there. Before joining the army, I worked as a miner with my dad."

Timov said regretfully, "Ever since I can remember, my mother has told me about the Salzburg Music Festival. No, no, no, according to my mother, it should be called the Mozart Music Festival.

But in fact, she has never participated. She grew up in a small town at the foot of the Alps and has never been to a big city, but she has always known about that music festival."

"Are you a miner?" Wei Ran asked in a daze.

"Of course, my father and I both work in the gold mines." Before Timov finished speaking, Wei Ran's vision went dark and he lost consciousness.

When he woke up again, he found himself wrapped in bandages and sitting on a stone in front of the castle church. There was a stretcher not far away.

On the other side, Timov and Dominic were busy carrying down coffins from the cargo bed of a carriage.

Directly in front of his sight, the entrance to the basement had been opened, and there was even a sizzling kerosene lamp hanging at the entrance.

"Horst, Heike, Okan, Bernd, Vanst, everyone is here."

Timov put his arm around Dominic's shoulders and asked, "Dominique, Victor, can we just put them in the basement? Do you need to..."

"No need." Dominic shook his head, "Just put them in the basement, just put them in there."

Seeing Wei Ran nodding, Timov immediately gently lifted one end of a small coffin, and Dominic, whose face was still wrapped in gauze, immediately helped and lifted the other end with great effort.

With the cooperation of these two people, a total of five coffins were sent into the basement, and then the two men blocked the hole again with broken bricks and tiles that could be seen everywhere.

After everything was done, the sweating two people sat next to Wei Ran, one on the left and the other on the right. Timov skillfully gave each of them a cigarette to light, and said in a puff of smoke,

"I found out about Mr. Letts. Two months ago, probably on the second day after I met him, he was detected by the US Army stationed nearby while trying to send a telegram via radio.

Radio signals.”

"He was caught?" Wei Ran frowned.

"Um"

Timov nodded, "After that, he was sent to a prisoner-of-war camp like most prisoners of war. Next, I plan to go to the prisoner-of-war camp to see if I can find Mr. Letts."

"I want to go with you" Dominic said subconsciously.

"No, you can't go."

Timov shook his head, "Dominic, you have more important things. You have to escort Victor back, and you also need to inform your partners that if you have a radio station, you'd better get rid of it immediately, otherwise,

I'm worried they'll be arrested too."

Hearing this, Dominic's expression changed, and after a moment of hesitation he nodded, "I'll take Victor back right now."

"Let's take a picture before that"

Timov took out a film from his pocket and handed it to Dominic, "Didn't you say you had a camera hidden here? Find it and take a photo."

"But..." Dominic pointed at his face

"What does it matter?" Timov spread his hands.

"Come with me" Dominic said, got up and ran to Sophie's room.

After the two of them worked hard to dig out the camera that had been hidden there from under the floor full of dirt, the camera and film were also handed over to Wei Ran, and the two of them carried Wei Ran outside the moat.

The location of the bridge.

“Just shoot it here!”

As Timov said, he placed the camera at the back of the carriage and turned on the time-lapse photo mode. Then he ran back as fast as he could with Dominic, supporting Wei Ran who was standing on one leg.

When Wei Ran faced the camera not far away, he suddenly remembered the picture he saw before entering this historical segment, where he took a photo with Dominic with a cloth wrapped around his face.

Yes, isn’t it Timov?

But why didn’t I remember it? Why did I only remember it now?

When he thought about this abnormal problem, his eyes subconsciously glanced at the tattoo on the tiger's mouth on his left hand. It was obvious that he had not yet suffered from Alzheimer's disease, so this could only be the fault of that shabby book.

.

Thinking back, if he had recognized Timov from the beginning...

"Victor, look at the camera!" Timov's timely reminder made Wei Ran subconsciously raise his head, and at the same time interrupted his thoughts.

"Click!" Along with the sound of the shutter that was particularly clear in my mind, a strong white light also filled the field of vision.

In a daze, Wei Ran seemed to vaguely hear Dominic murmuring "Thank you" softly, and he also felt Timov on the other side of his body seeming to press his back and push him forward slightly.
