Traveling through the Republic of China, I married a dead person

The Municipal Council agreed so readily to Su Bai's condition of only giving him one-fifth of the output. There must be something fishy going on, and Su Bai had already figured it out.

This note helped Su Bai confirm his judgment.

The last two words "telephone" indicate that there are more details that are not convenient to write on the note.

Although the note did not specify who the call was to, Su Bai knew that it was Charlie Han.

He was the only one who knew the situation of the Municipal Council and the Fahua Pharmaceutical Factory.

After Manager Wan accepted Su Bai's suggestion and returned to his hometown in the countryside, Su Bai only had this one friend in the French Concession.

Su Bai took Xu Tianyi out of St. Peter's Basilica and after walking for more than 40 minutes, they found a public phone and called the Pétain Road Police Station.

The person who answered the phone was Han Charlie. He whispered to Su Bai to call his home in half an hour because it was inconvenient to talk here.

Everyone in the Municipal Council and the Police Station knew about his relationship with Su Bai, and Han Charlie did this for safety reasons.

Half an hour later, Su Bai called Han Charlie on time. He told Su Bai that just yesterday, the Fahua Pharmaceutical Factory recruited more than a dozen new workers, and a patrolman came back and told him that these people all had guns hidden on their waists.

Han Charlie immediately concluded that they were all Japanese spies or traitors.

The reason why he came to this conclusion so quickly was not only because the Municipal Council had a police station that could openly enter the pharmaceutical factory to be responsible for protection without having to be so sneaky, but also because Han Charlie had often gone to the Municipal Council and the Municipal Council because of Han Xiaoxiao's matter these days, and he had encountered a Japanese named Hayakawa entering and leaving the Municipal Council more than once.

Su Bai remembered that Japanese spies kidnapped Teacher Li by mistake at St. Mary's, thinking she was Su Bai. After they found out they had kidnapped the wrong person, they didn't know what to do with Teacher Li. They mentioned that they needed to consult a devil named Hayakawa, and Teacher Li heard it.

It seems that this devil named Hayakawa is specifically responsible for the penicillin matter.

"I understand. I won't be fooled by them. Thank you, Inspector Han. How is Xiaoxiao?" Su Bai asked.

Han Xiaoxiao has already left by boat. After arriving in Europe, she did not stay there, but took another boat directly to the United States.

During this period, Han Charlie was getting along very well with an American director of the International Settlement Municipal Council. He had already helped Han Xiaoxiao contact a school in the United States to study biochemistry and pharmaceuticals.

Han Charlie said that Han Xiaoxiao chose to study this major entirely because of Su Bai's influence. Before she left, she also said that after returning from her studies, she would research more and better medicines like Sister Lan, serve the country, and benefit the people.

She also said that when she came back, Sister Lan’s pharmaceutical factory would definitely be one of the largest and most important pharmaceutical factories in the country, and she wanted to work in Sister Lan’s pharmaceutical factory and laboratory.

Su Bai's eyes became moist again after hearing this.

Little did this silly girl know that she was becoming increasingly hopeless about the completion of the pharmaceutical factory.

Although Dr. Shi's method of asking Su Bai to bypass the Department of Health and contact the military directly is feasible and reliable, it still takes time.

What if the field hospitals that Vice President Zhang donated to refuse to cooperate and what happens if the war in Shanghai ends after their own penicillin is produced in 20 days?

Do I have to go to the front line of the Battle of Nanjing?

That will be in December, which is about three months from now.

Su Bai really doesn't have the energy and sheer sheer willpower to wait any longer. Even though the war won't stop for these three months, Su Bai can't just run around on the battlefields like a headless fly, right?

If it weren't for Dr. Shi's advice, Su Bai might have fallen into despair about this matter.

Even with Dr. Shi's advice, Su Bai was prepared to adjust her next plan, but she no longer had the passion she once had, so she decided to take it one step at a time.

If it succeeds, it's a surprise; if it fails, it's normal.

At the end of the call, Han Charlie told Su Bai that he would also leave Shanghai for Hong Kong in a few days.

Mrs. Han had already taken Grandma Jiang to Hong Kong first, and Charlie Han would take care of things here and leave.

He also told Su Bai that if she was willing to go to Hong Kong or go abroad, he could help make the connection.

"We don't have any plans yet."

Han Charlie left Mrs. Han's address in Hong Kong to Su Bai. They would live in Hong Kong for a while and decide whether to go abroad after Han Xiaoxiao settled down in the United States.

“Take care, Miss Lan!” Charlie Han hung up the phone.

It was another farewell confession that made Su Bai sad for a while.

Su Bai and Xu Tianyi walked back to St. Peter's Basilica. At the door of the church, Xu Tianyi suddenly had an idea.

He believed that the fifty bottles of penicillin that Vice President Zhang had sent to various field hospitals had not caused any problems, and it would be unlikely for us to get them back now. Since we were so anxious to get the penicillin, we might as well ask him to go back to Longxing.

Before Niu Yanzi and her colleagues received Su Bai's order to stop all production, the production of penicillin and erythromycin had never been interrupted for a single day.

The stock of medicines in Panlong Cave No. 1 is much larger than the total amount already put into the battlefield in Shanghai.

Xu Tianyi can go back to Longxing and transport the penicillin there to Shanghai.

"Will this... work?" This is indeed a solution, but Su Bai doesn't know whether it can be transported over, but she knows it must not be easy.

Wan Qili was just driving a car passing through Wuxi when she was bombed by Japanese planes. The truck would be a bigger target and it was such a long distance... Su Bai didn't dare to think further.

"Let's wait for Lili to come back and ask her if the road is safe and if we can hire a truck."

Su Bai couldn't remember who had told him a while ago that not only trucks but also horse-drawn carriages had been requisitioned by the army. Apart from military supplies and daily necessities and food for the citizens, many transportation companies had stopped their operations.

Wan Qili came back after dinner and told Su Bai some very bad news. Xu Tianyi was right this time. The Military Control Commission wanted her to return to the team.

However, with Luo Pinzhang's help, she could stay with Su Bai for two more days and finish what she needed to do.

"Let's go," Su Bai said helplessly, "You are a soldier after all, how can you stay with me forever?"

At this point, Su Bai thought of Zhou Beiwang again. He was also a soldier. When the country was in crisis, he would have to go to the battlefield one day. This was his sacred duty and glorious mission. Although his gratitude towards him gradually turned into a good impression between the opposite sex, and if things continued to develop, they might even become lovers...

But, love at this time is simply a luxury and unrealistic.

He could not return to Longxing, and as a soldier, Zhou Beiwang had no choice but to be transferred to any battlefield at any time.

Me and him...it's impossible.

Maybe it's our destiny to be close friends.

Wan Qili discovered Su Bai's wandering thoughts again: "Sister, what are you thinking about?"

"Nothing." Su Bai covered up.

"Sister," Wan Qili's words suddenly became hesitant, and her voice became much softer: "I think... you need to be mentally prepared."

"What a mess, what incoherent!" Su Bai pulled Wan Qili's shoulders over: "What do you think? How can you prepare me mentally? You can't even speak?"

Wan Qili looked up at Su Bai and then lowered her head: "You may... have to leave Shanghai."
