Traveling through the 1940s, the whole village was massacred at the beginning

Chapter 72 Going into the City to Find Out Information

"Why did you come back?" Mr. Jiang Liu looked at Jiang Jiyun who ran to his side.

"I'll come back to wait for you! I'll talk to you!" Jiang Jiyun said with a smile.

"You...ah!" Master Jiang Liu held her little hand and stood by the roadside waiting.

Dozens of minutes later, the grandparents and grandchildren saw a rickshaw driver who had taken them out of the city earlier running over and waving at them anxiously.

Master Jiang Liu held Jiang Jiyun's hand and walked over. "Little brother, what's the matter?"

"Old man, your nephew has been arrested by the police station. I think he is in great danger!" the rickshaw driver said and left.

Leaving behind was the pale-faced Jiang Liuye and the confused Jiang Jiyun.

"What was Uncle Wenming doing? Why was he caught by the police?" Jiang Jiyun asked Master Jiang Liu.

"Ugh!"

Mr. Jiang Liu, with red eyes, touched Jiang Jiyun's little head and sighed.

"Sixth Grandpa, what's wrong?" Jiang Jiyun asked anxiously. She just heard Jiang Wanting say that Sixth Grandpa didn't leave alone, and didn't hear where Jiang Wenming went.

Mr. Jiang Liu took her to the side of the road and told her what had happened before.

Jiang Jiyun fell silent as he listened. "Sixth Grandpa, let me go into the city to find out what's going on!"

"No, it's too dangerous!" Mr. Jiang Liu disagreed and grabbed her hand hard.

"Sixth Grandpa, since I'm young enough, I can pretend to be a beggar and go to the police station to have a look." Jiang Jiyun explained.

"Then let's go together, otherwise you are not allowed to go." Mr. Jiang Liu firmly disagreed.

"Sixth Grandpa, I'm so small that no one will notice me if I hide anywhere. How can you hide when you're so big? Where can you hide? If there is a dog hole, I can crawl into it. What will you do?" Jiang Jiyun said angrily.

Master Jiang Liu didn't know how to refute what she said. He looked at her small body and said, "You are injured. You can't take risks."

Jiang Jiyun untied the gauze in his hand in front of him and said, "You can get better faster without the gauze. Grandpa, I just went to get the news. I came out when I got the news. How can I, a little kid, go to the police station to save people?"

"Then you must promise to be careful." Mr. Jiang Liu was also persuaded.

"Well, I promise I'm just trying to get information." Jiang Jiyun took the five cents given by Mr. Jiang Liu.

She took the money and said to Mr. Jiang Liu, "Sixth Master, I will be out tomorrow morning at the latest. You wait until the ox cart arrives and chase my sister-in-law and the others. They will definitely not go far and will definitely be waiting for you in front."

"I know. I will move forward when we get to the bullock cart. Please come back as soon as possible. We will wait for you in the nearest village ahead."

Mr. Jiang Liu couldn't say that he was waiting for her on the road. If they encountered the Japanese with only a few people, the possibility of survival would be slim. They could only find a village to stay temporarily.

Jiang Jiyun nodded, "Okay, I will come back to find you safely."

After saying that, she ran to pay the money and entered the city. After entering the city, she looked back at Mr. Jiang Liu who was looking at her and waved to him.

Mr. Jiang Liu watched with red eyes as the little figure ran forward and disappeared from his sight.

Jiang Jiyun asked several people before she found the police station. After looking around, she found a shop selling baked cakes not far from the police station.

"Grandpa, how much is a scone?" Jiang Jiyun ran over and asked.

"Two cents for a vegetarian one, four cents for a meat pie." The old man looked down and saw a little kid who was not as tall as his oven and told her the prices.

"Grandpa, give me a vegetarian one." Jiang Jiyun pretended to rummage in his pocket for a long time and took out two copper coins.

"Hi!"

The old man took the two cents, wrapped a cake in paper and handed it to her.

"Thank you, Grandpa!" Jiang Jiyun took a pancake that was bigger than her face and squatted at the old man's feet to start eating.

The old man looked at the child's hand, which seemed to be injured, and asked, "What happened to your hand?"

"I helped someone move bricks all day yesterday, and my palms are covered with blisters." Jiang Jiyun stretched out his hand to show the old man.

The old man took a closer look and found that it was indeed a bubble, so he was relieved and continued to talk to her, "Why are you here alone?"

"My parents are dead, so I just go wherever I want. I just saw the police arresting someone over there, so I thought I'd join in to see what's going on. Next time I see someone like that, I can avoid getting arrested."

The old man heard Jiang Jiyun's words and asked with a smile, "It's been a while, why did you just come?"

Jiang Jiyun's face turned red, but luckily she was tanned so the redness was not so obvious. "Isn't it because my legs are a little short? I can't run as fast as others."

“Haha…” The old man laughed when he heard her say that her legs were short.

"The little one is quite smart. He knows how to take precautions before accidents happen. No wonder he can live to this day at such a young age." The old man said with a smile.

"Let me tell you, that young man seemed to have killed two Japanese and didn't get away. Although he was caught by the police, he was just taken away by the Japanese."

Jiang Jiyun's heart skipped a beat. "He was taken away by the devils? He definitely won't survive!"

"That's right. In this world, people with a little bit of passion won't live long!" The old man sighed and continued making cakes.

Jiang Jiyun pretended to be curious and asked, "Where will those devils take him? Will they just kill him?"

"No, there is a large courtyard with two stone lions at the gate in the north of the city. There is some kind of Japanese trap there. The young man must have been tortured to death there. After death, his body will be thrown directly into the mass grave outside the city. Many people have been thrown there."

Jiang Jiyun lowered his head and ate the cake. The old man looked at the child with a complicated expression.

Such a little girl is still trying to get information from him. It seems that this child is the young man's family. This is all he can tell her. I hope this child is lucky enough to survive in this chaotic world!

"Come, drink a bowl of water to fill your stomach, otherwise you will choke," the old man handed over a bowl of water.

Jiang Jiyun raised his head and took the bowl. "Thank you, Grandpa."

"You're welcome! Alas! Life in this world is so difficult!" The old man went back to his business.

Jiang Jiyun thought that the Japanese had been wiped out in Y City, so why would there be some Japanese agency stationed in this small county? Is this county important?

After eating the cake, Jiang Jiyun returned the bowl to the old man selling cakes and left. The old man looked at the small figure and sighed again.

Jiang Jiyun ran all the way north. After running for a long time, she finally saw the big stone lion that the old man had mentioned.

At this moment, the two children in her mind were fighting. One of them put his hands on his hips and said, "It's no big deal to go in and check it out. Anyway, if there is a space and you encounter danger, just hide in it."

The other one also put his hands on his hips and retorted, "So what if there is a space? Are you going to hide in the space for the rest of your life? Are you going to ignore the people waiting for you outside the city? What if there are traps or something inside? Are you going to die?"
