Chapter 145 War and Hope 2
Chapter 145 War and Hope 2
The two children saw the chocolate waving in their sister's hand. Although they didn't know what it was, they knew it must be something good when they saw their sister smiling.
But they were very confused in their hearts. Didn't their sister always tell them not to appear in front of these soldiers as much as possible?
Why did he call me over here in front of so many soldiers today? Did he have something important to tell them?
After taking the chocolate from their sister, the two children took a bite each and then passed the chocolate to each other.
It was a small piece of chocolate, but after three people had taken bites of it, half of it was still left.
Although the three of them looked at the chocolate in their hands with such eager eyes, no one took the initiative to take another bite.
Because they knew how precious this piece of chocolate was to them, they didn't want to finish it all at once and wanted to leave some for each other to enjoy.
Seeing the three children, one big and two small, who were so sensible that it made people's heart break, Wang Chun and the guards around him felt a lump in their throats.
"Come, uncle has a lot here, please eat!" Wang Chun took out a handful of chocolate again.
The two younger ones looked at the older child in front of them, their eyes full of curiosity and desire.
If the two younger ones had not just called her sister, it would have been hard for Wang Chun and the people around them to imagine that the child in tattered clothes, with messy hair and a dirty face was actually a girl.
Her appearance looks very sloppy and even a little scary, but this is also a way for her to protect herself.
Perhaps it was because she deliberately dressed herself so shabby that she was able to survive in this cruel world.
If she showed her true face, she would probably meet with misfortune within three days.
In this society, women are often in a vulnerable position, especially little girls like her who are helpless and vulnerable.
Not only were there the brutal Japanese and puppet troops, but there were also those older male beggars who might do cruel things to her.
Therefore, she can only choose to hide her true identity and use disguise to protect herself. This reality makes people feel helpless and sad.
This older girl originally would not have let her younger brother and sister come out, but she had secretly observed how excited the soldiers were when they saw Wang Chun.
They knew that the young uncle in front of them was definitely not an ordinary person, otherwise those soldiers would not have behaved like this after seeing him.
She secretly observed from the corner for a while, and a soldier who was familiar with her secretly gave her some pointers.
It turned out that the soldier felt sorry for the child and had been leaving some food for her after meals, sometimes even one or two pieces of fat meat. The little girl was also very sensible and would always take the food with gratitude and thank the soldiers.
So she was asked to go find her highest commander, because all the soldiers knew what kind of person their commander was, and if the child saw her commander, there would definitely be a chance of survival.
Although the little girl's life was hard, she still maintained an optimistic and strong attitude.
Every time he got food, he would only eat a small amount and take the rest back to the abandoned cave.
This ruined house was once a warm home for their family of five, but now it has become dilapidated.
The ruins were filled with a damp smell, the walls were covered with moss, and the ground was covered with dry grass and fallen leaves.
However, this is their only shelter and the place where they are isolated from the outside world.
Every time the little girl walked carefully into the ruins, holding the few pieces of precious food tightly in her hands, she gently called the names of her younger brother and sister.
When the younger brother and sister heard their sister calling them, they immediately crawled out from the corner with innocent smiles on their faces. They couldn't wait to take the food from their sister's hands and eat it up voraciously.
Whenever the little girl saw her younger brothers and sisters eating with gusto, she felt extremely happy.
Although she was hungry, she felt it was all worth it when she saw her family had enough to eat. She knew that only by keeping her younger brothers and sisters alive would they have a chance to wait for their father's return.
That was originally their home, but his father was captured by the Japanese and became a puppet soldier, and his mother died in the war.
The little girl still remembers that day when she and her family were having dinner at home. Suddenly there was a huge explosion. She was so scared that she hid under the table and watched her mother being blown to death.
My father was heartbroken, but the Japanese still forcibly captured him and made him a puppet soldier.
Since then, the little girl has been hiding with her two younger siblings, hoping that their father will come back to find them.
They experienced countless hardships and tortures, but never gave up their expectations for their father.
Whenever night falls, the little girls would pray silently, hoping that their father would find them as soon as possible and take them home.
Looking at the three children wolfing down the food, Wang Chun felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife and was in so much pain that he couldn't breathe.
In fact, he has seen too many such scenes since coming to this world.
Every time, the cruel reality was like a sharp knife, stabbing into his heart and making him feel extremely uncomfortable and guilty.
He knew that what he did was just a drop in the bucket, but he still tried his best to help these poor children.
However, there are tens of thousands of kids like this across the country, and this is just the tip of the iceberg.
Without a stable social environment, everything will become meaningless.
He deeply realized that in order to change all this, the problem must be solved fundamentally.
This requires the joint efforts of the entire country and society to be truly realized.
Despite this, he still firmly believes that as long as everyone works together, they will be able to create a better future.
Because he firmly believed that he could use this system to enable the country to achieve leapfrog development, so that all the people would not dare to say that their lives were perfect, but basic food and clothing could still be solved.
Wang Chun took these children away, and at the same time many other children were sent to military camps.
Some of them have long been orphans, and some, like the three sisters, still have their eldest father but have temporarily lost contact with him.
Of course, it is also possible that his father is no longer with us. If the relatives of these children can never be found again, they will go to Guancen Mountain, where they will receive help from the government and social welfare agencies.
Three days later, in a military hospital in Zhangjia K that specialized in treating prisoners, a middle-aged man burst into tears.
Because just now, he, who had already made up his mind to die, suddenly received news that his three children were actually alive and well.
Li Shuanzhu never imagined that three children who had lost their parents could survive the war.
When an officer from the internal affairs department searched for this place, fortunately these puppet army wounded were registered when they were sent to the hospital for treatment.
"Your name is Li Shuanzhu, right?"
The officer looked at the puppet soldier lying on the hospital bed, lifeless and with a wounded leg.
Seeing that he didn't say a word, as if he was a fool, an injured puppet soldier next to him was afraid that he would offend the officer, so he immediately answered for him.
"Sir! Shuanzhu's leg was injured by a shell, and his brain was also injured. Sir, please don't be angry!"
He said this with a flattering smile looking at the officer in front of him, and at the same time reached out to pull Li Shuanzhu who looked like an idiot.
At this time, the young nurse in charge of these wards came in and looked at the officer from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
"He was like this when he was sent here. His wife was killed by the Japanese army when they destroyed the entire city. He was drafted as a soldier. Poor three children at home who were crying for food. I'm afraid..."
The young nurse had not finished her words. In everyone's mind, the fate of the man in front of them was indeed tragic, as he had encountered such a misfortune in just one month.
