Chapter 442
Julie Kim’s eyes were as bright as fire.
She was wearing shoes that didn’t match her feet, her clothes were so weird, she still had a wound on her back, and it was still not easy for her to move around, but it was like she had been revitalized!
She began to talk to Zhu Yuyan.
Compared to before, when she hardly spoke at all, she seemed to be very expressive now.
And it was a mix of Chinese, English and Japanese.
Zhu Yuyan had seen a lot of people, and when she went to the Home for the Poor, she had seen people just like Julie Jin. They were very willing to talk, very eager to talk, but always could not say what they meant. Limited by her knowledge, Zhu Yuyan couldn’t figure out if this was a disease that needed to be treated or not.
She can only hope that Jin Juli can get well on her own.
Fortunately, she can understand most of her meaning.
She first reassured her “Don’t worry, there’s no one in this mansion.”
Then she added “Even if someone sees us, it doesn’t matter, they won’t care about me.”
Without waiting for Zhu Yuyan to ask, she turned her head over and smiled at her, her face pale, her smile sweet, her eyes empty.
“No matter what I look like, no matter what I’m wearing or not wearing, no matter if I’m hurt or not, no one will care about me.”
“There are only men in this yard, no women.”
Julie Kim: “If you walk with me, no one will care about you either.”
–won’t care if you live or die.
Zhu Yuyan guessed her unfinished words and fell into silence.
Jin Juli added: “That thing, he wrote it for a long time, and he would wipe his knife when he wrote it. It was said that it was a knife that the Japanese used to kill themselves. Women also have them, but women’s knives are especially small, and men’s knives are much bigger. Did you know? When a Japanese woman gets married, she has to hold a knife in her hand.”
As she walked, she hummed a Japanese tune, couldn’t tell where it was from, but what she hummed along with it was Hendel’s Round Dance, and she hummed it softly as she walked slowly down the corridor.
Zhu Yuyan could have told her to be quieter, but she strangely did not stop.
–Because what exactly would happen afterward, no one knew, and neither did she.
Father and son Yamamoto were dead.
Teacher Su was still unknown where.
With just the two of them, could they really escape?
If they couldn’t escape, then this long corridor, the night sky at this moment, was the first gift Jin Juli got after regaining her freedom.
She didn’t want to stop her from enjoying this moment.
Through a door, another corridor.
The two of them combined their efforts to drag Mr. Deputy, who had collapsed on this long corridor, to the next room, where his head almost fell outside.
Then carefully and gently pull the paper door shut again.
They continued to walk outside.
Through this one long corridor, outside is the place where people belong. Bodyguards often patrol this side.
Of course, there are no bodyguards at this time.
At night, the bodyguards all retreated to the outside of the mansion and stood in a circle around the mansion, even on the walls, just to guard against the enemies outside.
In this way, the inside of this mansion was safe.
The fewer the people, the safer it is, that’s probably what it means.
Jinjuri whispered to her, “At night, the maids are locked in their rooms and can’t come out.”
She turned her head to look at her and said, “I’ve been to them before.”
–Trying to get them to take you on an escape?
–Then realized that they were all locked in their rooms.
Zhu Yuyan took her hand and shook it, like two good friends taking a walk.
Walking through the wide courtyard before arriving at Yamamoto’s study.
Surprisingly, they really didn’t meet anyone in between!
This place was simply an empty room.
Zhu Yuyan very much wanted to immediately call Mr. Su and ask him to hurry up and come.
On second thought, she couldn’t. The courtyard was surrounded by people.
It’s not easy for outsiders to come in, and it’s not easy for them to go out.
It was like a cage.
But the good thing was, the two of them were really moving a lot more freely now.
Yamamoto might have given the mansion the rule that no one was allowed to wander after dark!
Once it got dark, no one was allowed to move. No one is allowed to come out of the house. Whoever comes out has to have a password.
And the password was issued by Yamamoto.
Now Yamamoto is gone.
The only password she knows is “no drinking tonight”.
Will she be able to get out with that password.
Or was it just a “get off work”, “go back to bed” password?
Zhu Yuyan can not think of a clue, so we can only put it aside, first consider Yamamoto’s “file”.
Yamamoto’s study is also a courtyard, through the door or a wooden corridor.
Jinjuri led her over to the paper door – that’s why it’s so damn good to use a paper door for a study!
It opens, and inside is the study.
Ginjuri led her in and naturally turned on the light – and didn’t have to worry about anyone being in is all.
Then she crawls behind Yamamoto’s desk and uncovers the wall hanging to reveal the safe inside.
This one was rather traditional. The safes were all in the wall paintings, and you could find them by looking over all four walls.
The safe had a password.
Not waiting for Zhu Yuyan to ask Jin Juli if she knew, she had already turned the dial and opened the safe with ease while softly humming a song.
Jin Juli said with a smile, “He let me open the safe and told me the password. He said that it proves that he truly accepts me.”
Zhu Yuyan also stopped talking.
Hahaha!
–Yamamoto couldn’t conquer Jin Juli even with all the methods he used.
She kept herself.
She pulled out everything inside.
Zhu Yuyan went crazy with joy when she found so many documents!
But time was limited and she could only pick up the most important ones.
She quickly opened all the documents and looked through them before putting aside the ones she felt were important.
One was a list that seemed to be full of senior generals and important figures of the Japanese army, with a few Chinese and English names.
This one couldn’t be memorized in a moment, so she had to put it down for now.
One was a map, which she looked at twice, guessing that it might contain marching routes and battle plans.
She hurriedly memorized one. The maps were memorized long ago, so she just had to write down the marching routes in them.
The last was a very thick document with tons of praise for the Emperor and other nonsense, so at first Zhu Yuyan put it aside.
But Jinjuri said, “That’s what he’s writing.”
Hmm?
Zhu Yuyan took it back to read it again, and after skipping many, many pages, it came to what Yamamoto called “words of loyalty”.
He had presented the Emperor with a plan that he believed would lead to the eventual occupation of China: the massacre of all Chinese in all of China’s major cities.
All the hairs on Zhu Yuyan’s body stood up.
Yamamoto said, Beiping, Nanjing, Shanghai …… and other big cities in China are full of people who are the richest and most powerful people in this country, and also the most unlikely to agree with Japanese rule.
This is because what Japan could give them could not possibly compare to what the Qing Emperor had. The Qing Dynasty was too rich, they were too rich!
Just kill them, then their money will immediately become ours, for our military expenses.
And if we kill them all, we don’t have to worry that there will be no Chinese to serve as slaves for the Japanese.
There are so many Chinese that even if only one tenth of them are left, there are enough for the Japanese.
The more Chinese we kill, the more the Chinese will fear the Japanese, and they won’t dare to resist.
As long as we can make up our minds to kill these Chinese who resist us, we will be able to establish the most effective rule in the shortest possible time.
At that time, Your Majesty, you will be given this Forbidden City, the largest royal palace in the world, and you will sit in the Forbidden City’s dragon chair and rule over this beautiful, huge land country!
Slaughter the Chinese to your heart’s content!
Every time a Japanese soldier kills a Chinese, he is doing his duty to the Emperor, and they will be your most loyal soldiers!
Zhu Yuyan put this report down with a shaking hand.
She finally knew why the massacre of the South* by the Japanese army happened in history.
Because this report was adopted!
And in Japan’s plan, South* was only one of them, they planned to massacre all the important cities in China. Wherever they invade, they will kill.
This document cannot be sent up!
Zhu Yuyan wanted to burn it, but remembered that she might not be able to find a source of fire at this time, so she picked up the kettle on the table and poured water onto this report, rubbing the paper all over with her hands.
Jin Juli helped her to do it together without asking why.
After completely catapulting this document into oblivion, she still couldn’t feel at ease.
Could there be another copy hidden somewhere?
Could Yamamoto have already turned it in?
Could it be that Yamamoto had discussed this matter with someone?
Could it be ……
She tried to calm down.
–She must escape alive.
–She must pass on this information!
