"Don't talk about useless things. Honestly, how much has been lost?"

The principal asked, rubbing his temples that were beating wildly.

Song Ziwen adjusted his glasses and said:

"Chairman of the Chairman... oh... brother-in-law, I am not afraid of your jokes, but I only have less than a ton of gold and some antiques and jewelry."

"It's not worth a lot of money in general, but what Wei Jun did this time went too far. He knew it was my Song family's thing, but he robbed it whenever he wanted. I really can't swallow this feeling!"

"Brother-in-law, Wei Junru is an old man of the Party and State. I believe that as long as you ask, he will obediently send the things back."

"You know the domestic situation better than I do. He is our most important breakthrough. We cannot wait until Jiangdong notices and replaces the governor with someone else."

His temples were beating harder and harder, and the principal couldn't help but sigh.

He pressed his head with one hand, pointed at Song Ziwen with the other and said:

"You also know that the domestic situation has changed, but do you know that Wei Junru has stopped listening to my orders a long time ago?"

"Why are you in such a hurry? You were so impatient that you didn't get things done well and even let the other party notice."

Song Ziwen only cared about his gold and asked again:

"Brother-in-law, is it true that I can't get back my Song family's things?"

The principal shook his head helplessly.

"Do you know that Peking is undergoing currency reform and your gold will be a big help to them?"

Song Ziwen was not a dull man, but he was very smart, and he understood the meaning as soon as his eyes rolled.

The principal sighed and said:

"You should have stayed in the United States. It was a mistake to come back!"

Song Ziwen nodded thoughtfully and said goodbye.

Not long after, intelligence chief Dai Li walked into the principal's office.

"Principal, there is indeed no so-called resistance army in Myanmar."

"The Military Control Bureau received accurate information and things entered the Governor's Mansion."

The principal had already suspected this, and Dai Li's words confirmed it.

"Before what happened, the Peiping side didn't know that the major families had the intention to transfer their assets to other countries, right?"

Dai Li nodded respectfully and replied:

"Indeed, it was just an accident that the news leaked."

"However, after such an incident occurred, Wei Junru strengthened border and port inspections and replaced a large number of border inspection personnel who accepted bribes."

The principal sighed silently.

He soon realized a more serious problem.

That is, after this incident, not only gold and other assets cannot be circulated outwards, but Jiangdong will not even let people from major families leave easily.

In recent years, corruption has occurred in the party-state from time to time, and people have complained.

The sky above our heads is about to change color, and someone must come to calm the people's dissatisfaction.

………

Nagasaki.

Tens of thousands of Japanese people are busy like black ants on the ruins of the city.

They cleared the ruins and collected the charred remains of relatives and friends.

As ferocious corpses were brought out from the air-raid shelters, the local people's expressions were numb, as if they were doing something ordinary and necessary.

In the temporary hospital outside the city, the screams of more than 100,000 wounded people echoed day and night.

They were seriously injured by the fire, and their wounds were horrific.

Due to a lack of adequate medicines, medical staff could only use water to help the wounded relieve pain.

Many people's wounds began to worsen, swelling and pus leaking, and it was terrible to see.

Major Ogura, who luckily escaped from the radar station, knelt in front of his mother's hospital bed. His expression was extremely calm, and there was even a hint of ferocity in his calmness.

His mother suffered extensive burns all over her body. The medical staff told him that with the current medical conditions, they were unable to cure the patient and could only alleviate her pain as much as possible.

The wound was already oozing pus and even gave off a putrid smell.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Ogura's mother no longer had any extra energy to moan, she was so breathless.

Surrounding Ogura are countless white beds, on which lie tens of thousands of poor people waiting to die in pain.

At noon, Ogura moistened his mother's lips with a cotton swab for the last time.

The ferocious look in his eyes became more intense.

He put down the small bowl of water and cotton swabs, picked up a pillow next to him, and slowly placed the pillow on his mother's mouth and nose, gradually applying force.

Due to difficulty breathing, the mother's body began to twitch, and finally she opened her muddy but surprised eyes with difficulty.

When he saw that look, Ogura's hand tightened slightly, but he did not move the pillow away.

His mother passed away with her eyes open. Ogura held back the tears and calmly called the medical staff.

Not long after, a new grave appeared on the hill with countless white flags flying.

Ogura kowtowed solemnly three times in front of the grave, and then left without looking back.

Throughout Nagasaki, thousands of people did things similar to Ogura's.

Some of them are children in their 10s, some are young adults like Ogura, and some are old people in their fifties and sixties, both men and women.

From this day on, they will no longer have personal will and enjoy personal life, but will be just a cold tool of revenge.

While Ogura was killing his mother, Kuroki returned to his hometown in glory and met his girlfriend whom he missed day and night.

After giving up the suicide attack, Kuroki returned to the sky with a torpedo and approached the Japanese coastline. Before the torpedo completely lost power, he got close enough to the coastline.

The black wood floated on the sea for a day and a night, and was finally discovered and rescued by local fishermen.

He wandered back to the submarine base and met a higher-ranking officer.

Kuroki did not say that he voluntarily gave up the suicide attack. He only said that he pressed the switch of the escape system at the last moment and was able to escape from the Kaiten torpedo.

He watched with his own eyes as a torpedo hit an enemy warship, and then he drifted in the sea for several days before being rescued by fishermen.

The commander of the submarine force knew the Kaiten torpedo very well and did not believe Kuroki's lies at all.

But everyone involved in that attack was shattered, including all the submarines and those in the Kaiten torpedoes.

Kuroki was the first and only one to return to the submarine base.

Although the base commander was unwilling to give glory to such a death-phobic person, he had no other choice but Kuroki.

Under the deliberate publicity and creation of the Navy Ministry, Kuroki became a hero who sank enemy warships.

He returned to his hometown in glory and told the people about the bravery of the imperial soldiers and the fragility of the enemy warships.

He also got some tender time with his long-separated girlfriend.

Lying on the woman's gentle belly, Kuroki felt the beauty and preciousness of life, and strengthened his belief that he should live for himself and not participate in stupid suicide attacks.

But the beautiful and comfortable days always passed quickly, and Kuroki soon returned to the naval submarine base.

Here, he is no longer respected and admired by people, everyone looks at him with contempt.

Because everyone knows that Kuroki is afraid of death and shamelessly stole the glory of his dead comrades.

After firming up his belief in survival, Kuroki was able to live calmly in such eyes.

I just hope the war will end soon.

But something that scared him to the point of urinating soon happened again.
