After living a new life for my neighbor's grandmother, I traveled through the book again
Chapter 20: Not Seen Above
Tong Jia bent over with a hunched back, and waited for the soldiers to check the eggs in the basket one by one, then walked straight to the place where she had agreed to meet with her cousin Gao without looking around.
Perhaps because Cousin Gao was not able to move around easily, He Zhishu did not ask her to wait at the agreed location.
Tong Jia walked around He Zhishu twice with the basket on her shoulder, but He Zhishu didn't notice her and just kept looking in the direction of the inspection point.
In fact, the place they agreed on was not more than ten kilometers away from the checkpoint, but at least seven or eight kilometers. Unless one had X-ray vision, one really couldn't see anything.
But He Zhishu couldn't help but look over there.
He was worried that Tong Jia would be exposed, thus implicating her brother who was picking her up at the checkpoint, and he was even more worried that the penicillin would be found out.
Even when standing, his whole body was very stiff due to tension.
It wasn't until Tong Jia walked behind him for the third time, stood up straight and patted his shoulder that He Zhishu jumped up.
When he turned around and saw an old lady who looked familiar, he patted his chest, tried to calm himself down, and asked in a calm voice, "Grandma, you've been circling around me for several times. Is there something wrong?
If you're asking for directions, don't ask. This is my first time here, and I'm mainly here to wait for someone, so I probably can't help you."
After saying that, he shifted his gaze towards the direction of the checkpoint.
Tong Jia was speechless, defeated by He Zhishu's observation ability.
Since he could see this "old lady" walking back and forth beside him several times, why didn't he notice that the old lady's height was different this time?
This place is a forest at the junction of Tianjin and Hebei Province. It is Tong Jia's first time here. If it weren't for the long delay, there would be more trouble at night. Tong Jia said she would tease He Zhishu more.
Tong Jia's walks around He Zhishu weren't in vain; she was mainly observing to see if there were any other people around.
Firstly, he didn't want to expose the existence of the RV, and secondly, he wanted to see how much trust Cousin Gao had in him.
Now she could basically confirm that someone was lying in ambush at the eleven o'clock position where He Zhishu was standing.
But she didn't sense any malice, she was probably just trying to protect He Zhishu's safety.
Tong Jia, who didn't want to delay the afternoon class, said directly: "Student He, please take a good look. I am Tong Jia, not some old lady."
“Tong Jia? You…what are you doing…” He Zhishu couldn’t equate the old lady in front of him with Tong Jia, and his words were already a bit incoherent.
Tong Jia didn't have time to comfort his shocked heart, but handed him the basket.
He said, "There are eggs at the bottom and top of this basket, and penicillin in the middle. They are all packed. Take them back and report them to the clerk immediately.
I've sent the things here, and it can be considered as sending the Buddha to the west.
I have classes in the afternoon, so I'll go back first."
"Oh... OK... Thank you... I... I..." He Zhishu's language system was still in the process of being reorganized. Apart from instinctively saying thank you, he was so shocked by Tong Jia's appearance that he was speechless.
Tong Jia didn't care how long it took for him to calm down. After handing over the basket, she left the place.
She needed to find a deserted place and change her clothes before going back. Otherwise, even if she didn't bring anything special, it would arouse the suspicion of those at the checkpoint.
After all, how could an old lady go to visit relatives without eating such a nutritious food as eggs?
Even if it were possible, an old lady wouldn't walk that fast.
So, Tong Jia quickly left the intersection and deliberately walked deeper into the woods.
We walked to a valley and then entered the RV with the help of trees and mountains.
Because they were outdoors, she didn't dare to slack off even in the RV.
As soon as she entered, she turned on the four-channel surveillance system in the RV and turned the volume up to the maximum before removing her makeup and changing her outfit.
Before she could wash her face, she heard the voices of Fuso people talking. She couldn't understand what they were saying, but she could see two teams of people wearing Fuso soldiers' clothes digging holes at the bottom of the valley.
A smaller team dug a two-meter-square pit and placed more than twenty boxes inside. They then filled it with soil and shoveled the excess soil down the cliff.
The other team, which had more people, dug an entrance and then retreated.
Tong Jia was very curious about the things buried by these Japanese people, so after the people walked away, he got out of the RV and started digging the ground with a military shovel.
Because there were many boxes in the pit and the soil on top was newly covered, it didn't take much effort to dig them up.
Soon, Tong Jia dug up the boxes on the top layer, and each box had a padlock on it.
Tong Jia, who didn't want to be discovered, quickly put all the boxes on the roof of the RV, entered the RV, quickly cleaned off the makeup on her face, and then put on an exaggerated look of flaming red lips.
Tong Jia looked at herself in the mirror. No matter how she looked at herself, she looked like a hot and fiery dancer. There was no trace of the innocent student left.
Only after observing carefully and confirming that there was no one outside did he come out of the RV.
I returned to the checkpoint again and passed the return inspection smoothly.
Seeing that He Zhicheng was still waiting there eagerly, Tong Jia curled the corners of her mouth and left.
After leaving the checkpoint, Tong Jia walked for half an hour and felt a little hungry, so he found a big tree, used the trunk as cover, and entered the RV.
I was eating in the RV when I heard voices coming from the four-way surveillance camera.
It's a conversation between two men.
One of them said, "Brother, how come that little girl suddenly disappeared? We were following her so closely, how could we have lost her?"
She...she seemed to have suddenly...suddenly disappeared...could she have seen a ghost in broad daylight?!"
Another said: "Shut up! Don't scare yourself in broad daylight."
Tong Jia ate a sandwich while walking to the four-way surveillance camera and stared at the two people on the screen.
The first person who spoke must have been really scared. From the surveillance video, his calves were trembling.
The man behind him said, “That woman is dressed so coquettishly, there must be more than just us two brothers who are attracted to her.
There must be some brothers from some unknown place who have been lying in ambush here early on.
Everything has a first come first served basis, so don't be ignorant, go back quickly."
After saying that, he turned and ran away.
If it weren't for the yellowish liquid flowing down his trouser legs wherever he ran, Tong Jia would have thought he was really calm.
He couldn't remain calm. A living person suddenly disappeared before his eyes in broad daylight.
No matter how tough he is, he can't avoid being afraid in his heart.
After he ran away, the little brother who called him "big brother" also ran away.
After Tong Jia finished the sandwich in her hand, she changed her hairstyle.
Now he looked like a coolie wearing a short cotton shirt, so he no longer had to worry about anyone showing up who was attracted by his beauty.
I returned to the dormitory safely, and just as I entered the RV to take a shower, I was ejected.
It turned out that he had entered the RV too many times today, and because there were people outside, he stayed inside for a long time each time, reaching the time limit for entry, and was directly ejected from the RV.
Tong Jia, who hadn't been mentally prepared at all and had just changed her environment, patted her chest twice and said to herself, "Luckily, I went in lying on the bed, otherwise, I would have fallen to my death with such a sudden blow."
After glancing at the time, Tong Jia immediately got up, packed up, took her textbook and went to class.
She only had the last class in the afternoon today. She entered the classroom as the bell rang, sat down in her seat, and then let out a long sigh of relief.
Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, a human-shaped pendant suddenly appeared on his arm - Pei Yingxue.
Pei Yingxue hugged Tong Jia's arm and said pitifully, "Jia Jia, you have a good relationship with Gao Chong. Can you please ask her for mercy on my behalf? I really can't stand it anymore."
"What's going on? I haven't seen you guys in the past few days. What did you do behind my back?" Tong Jia was really curious about how Gao Chong had tripped Pei Yingxue.
Pei Yingxue's face was almost wrinkled into a bun, and her expression was extremely painful. She sniffed and said, "A few days ago, I don't know what got into Gao Chong wrong, but he insisted that I was the worst fighter among us.
If you weren't by my side, I would have no choice but to surrender when I encountered danger.
I thought she was going to teach me self-defense so that I could fight back if something happened.
As a result, she actually asked me to practice running, saying that I was almost twenty years old and had missed the age to practice martial arts. I could only start from reality and improve my speed and reaction ability. Running fast can save my life at critical moments.
But I just run when I'm practicing running. Not only does she keep running with me, not letting me rest for a moment, she also puts sandbags and knocks stones on the path where I'm running.
Look, I was too tired to lift my legs, and I couldn’t step over the sandbag. I got bruises all over my body, here, here, and here…”
"Okay, okay, this is a classroom, don't show your wound for now. Let's go to class first. If you have anything to say, let's go to my dormitory after class." Seeing that Pei Yingxue was about to lift her clothes to show her injury, Tong Jia quickly stopped her.
Pei Yingxue still held Tong Jia's arm tightly and pleaded, "Jia Jia, Gao Chong is keeping a close eye on me outside the classroom with my schedule. Unless you come to pick me up after class, otherwise..."
"Okay, okay, okay. After class, stay in the classroom and don't come out. I'll come find you." Tong Jia agreed.
Pei Yingxue excitedly hugged Tong Jia and cheered, saying, "Jia Jia, I knew you were the best!"
The sound startled the teacher who was lecturing at the podium. He looked at Tong Jia and Pei Yingxue with dissatisfaction and said, "The opportunity to go to school is precious. Even if you don't cherish it, please don't affect other students."
Pei Yingxue stuck out her tongue, stood up, bowed to the teacher and classmates, and stammered, "Sorry, teacher, I went to the wrong classroom.
I'm sorry to bother you, classmates. I'm leaving now."
After finishing the class peacefully, Tong Jia went to Pei Yingxue's classroom as agreed.
At this time, Gao Chong, He Zhishu and He Zhicheng were also waiting at the classroom door.
This time they were not here to stop Pei Yingxue, but to ask how Tong Jia had passed the checkpoint without anyone noticing.
Tong Jia smiled when she heard this and whispered to Gao Chong, "I pretended to be a hunchbacked old lady wearing dirty and ragged clothes. Those officers and soldiers didn't want to touch me at all, fearing that they would not only get the upper hand but also dirty their hands.
The thing was hidden in my humpback, so it passed safely."
"How did you come up with that? I've touched the plaster on my cousin's leg several times, and my heart is about to jump out of my throat.
If we had known earlier that pretending to be hunchbacked would be enough, we wouldn't have to let Tong Jia take the risk, and Zhicheng and I could have done it too." He Zhishu said with both admiration and fear.
Tong Jia said, "It may not work out even if you two come.
Okay, I know you want to thank me, so I won’t be polite with you.
I haven’t been to the library much these days because I was afraid that my cousin Gao would be alone in the dormitory with no one to take care of her.
I guess there must be a lot of work left in the library. Since you are all here, no one can leave. Come with me to the library to work."
After saying that, she went to the classroom and called Pei Yingxue to go to the library together. Poor Pei Yingxue was drafted into the army and didn't know it. She foolishly thought that this was Tong Jia's way of rescuing her and helping her vent her anger, so she became even more obedient to Tong Jia.
After finishing the work that had accumulated in the library for several days, Tong Jia and the others were so exhausted that they went home directly.
After returning to the dormitory, Tong Jia saw Tao Junle standing by the bed with a book and an envelope in his hands.
When he saw Tong Jia coming back, he gave these two things to Tong Jia.
The book was written by the leader, and inside it were five ten-yuan customs coupons.
When he opened the envelope, there was a letter and two silver dollars inside.
The letter said: The silver dollars are the expenses for Cousin Gao's food and accommodation at Tong Jia's place these days. I want to entrust the book and the fifty-yuan gold coupon to Tong Jia, and give them to Yang Jixia's wife when I have the chance in the future.
In the end, apart from thanking Tong Jia, there was nothing else to say.
When Tong Jia read the letter, he did not avoid Tao Junle, so he also saw the content of the letter.
Tao Junle picked up the five gold coupons and shook them in his hand, somewhat unconvinced by Cousin Gao's apology.
Tong Jia also shook her head and put these things into the RV.
At the same time, Cousin Gao, who had already reunited with the main force, was also very excited when she saw that the person who came to pick her up was Yang Jixia, who had been missing for several months.
But after the excitement, she fell into confusion again.
Especially when she truthfully reported that it was Tong Jia's credit that Penicillin safely passed the checkpoint, and the organization decided to develop Tong Jia, she became even more conflicted.
After thinking about it for two days, Cousin Gao found Yang Jixia and told him everything she had heard from Tong Jia.
Yang Jixia couldn't believe that his mother, who had always been healthy, would become paralyzed, and he couldn't accept it for a while.
Cousin Gao also expressed her opinion, "We were too shortsighted before. We always thought that she had been educated in feudal ideas since she was a child and would definitely not understand us...your ideals, so we naturally helped her decide her future.
But who among us didn’t come from feudal ethics?
I didn't think about helping that girl, but because of my selfishness, I almost ruined that girl. There was something wrong with my thinking.
Until we find Miss Rong and completely resolve the issues between you, let's maintain our revolutionary friendship."
Yang Jixia originally wanted to meet Tong Jia and ask more about his family situation, but he went to Beiyang University, and Tong Jia happened to be not in school that day, so the two did not meet.
I took on a new task when I returned that night and didn't have the chance to go there again.
He could only take out all the money he had and entrust Yuan Shengnan (cousin Gao) to send it home.
Tong Jia, who found a bargain in the antique market, was completely unaware that she had missed an opportunity to meet Yang Jixia.
