War Photographer's Notebook

Chapter 175 Returning to China
After lying in the hospital for two full days, Wei Ran, who barely recovered, was able to walk out of the hospital.

"You finally came out alive." Ji Ma, who had been waiting at the gate for a long time, immediately threw a cotton coat to Wei Ran, "How do you feel now? Do you want to have a drink to celebrate?"

"Forget it, I still want to live a few more days." Wei Ran took the cotton coat and put it on his body, followed Jima to the parking lot and asked, "I didn't ask you before, how are you going if you're not in Kazan?" Volgograd is coming?"

"Of course I came to ask you to share the money."

While talking, Jima took out a thick wad of dollars from his pocket and handed it to Wei Ran, "You forgot that Dr. Galkin, the fat sheep, bought a broken stone for [-] dollars from the abandoned military base. "

"I also have a share of this money?" Wei Ran asked in surprise after taking the money thrown by the other party.

"Of course I have a share!"

Jima said as a matter of course, "Originally, you should be given more, but the hot spring camp and the abandoned military base need to be invested, so we can only give you and Aurora [-] dollars first, and the rest will be given to us." After investing in those two camps, how about just borrowing from me?"

"Come on!"

After Wei Ran got into the car, he threw the wad of dollars he just got to Jima who was sitting in the driver's seat, "You guys keep the money for yourself, don't share it with us."

Ji Ma took the wad of cash in a hurry, and said stubbornly, "This is the rule of the Inta hunters. The prey is found by everyone, so everyone has a share."

"Think of it as an investment in your camp"

Wei Ran said indifferently, he is not short of the [-] US dollars, there is really no need to be so clear with Ji Ma who is in the entrepreneurial stage, not to mention that this time it is thanks to Ji Ma, otherwise I am afraid that he would already be in the studio It's completely cool.

Jima turned his head and looked at Wei Ran very seriously, seeing that he didn't look like he was joking, he hesitated for a moment and solemnly took out a small book the size of a palm, and wrote "Victor and Ah Fuller, joint investment of [-] US dollars." The words.

"What about your black account?" Wei Ran laughed happily.

Ji Ma shook the small notebook in his hand proudly, "Fucking black account! This is the capital contribution of all shareholders who have invested in the hot spring camp. I will rely on this to distribute dividends to everyone next Christmas."

Wei Ran muttered to himself, but he didn't tease the other party about it after all.

"Where are we going next?" Jima put away the small book and asked.

"Go back to the studio first!" Wei Ran stretched his waist carefully and continued, "Jima, I plan to return to China the day after tomorrow, do you want to go to Huaxia with me?"

There was a look of longing on Jima's face, but then he shook his head decisively, "I don't have time, and the second batch of tourists will come soon, if you didn't suddenly get sick, I would have gone back to Kazan to do it. get ready."

Speaking of this, Jima gloated and changed the subject, "Speaking of this, what's the matter with you? I remember that the homeless shelter is not far from your studio. Could it be that you were really robbed?"

"I caught a cold with the window open when I slept, and I just fell down the stairs accidentally." Wei Ran didn't care whether the other party believed it or not, and brought up an excuse that he had thought up in advance, and while talking, he had already bought a ticket to return home.

"Thanks to your fall, you just don't have to go to Hongqi Forest Farm to attend classes."

The former sent a middle finger when he heard the words, and changed the topic to other aspects.

Returning to the studio again, Wei Ran took out the food box with glutinous rice balls and the small brass abacus again while Ji Ma was shopping for food.

The bowl of glutinous rice balls in this food box was still steaming, and when he opened the second layer of the food box, he found that there was a black and white photo inside. A short-haired woman in the national dress cheongsam, and Li Hexian in a Chinese tunic suit.

The short-haired woman sat gracefully on a small round stool, while Li Hexian stood behind her, putting one of her hands on the former's shoulder.

I guess this is Miss Zhou's family. Wei Ran looked at the two young people with happy faces in the photo and sighed secretly, then put the 20-ring bell box together with the photo into the food box.

Trying to put the food box and the small abacus into the red vortex, until the wooden handle floated up and down in the red vortex, he was secretly relieved.

For the next two days, Wei Ran continued to stay in the studio waiting to return to China while recuperating from his injuries. By the way, he also washed out all the photos he took during the Tengxian defense battle.

And Jima hurriedly bid farewell to Wei Ran and returned to Kazan after Professor Alexei and his wife returned from vacation.

Just the day before returning to China, while Wei Ran waited patiently, the countdown on the two whirlpools equipped with kerosene lamps and medical kits finally returned to zero, and began to rotate slowly again.

First try to put your hand into the vortex with kerosene lamp, Wei Ran successfully pulled out the kerosene lamp inside.

This also made him slightly relieved. Originally, he thought that the kerosene lamp and medical kit would disappear after they were given to the Chinese medicine shop, but now it is obviously not the case.

Look at this kerosene lamp again, it is no different from before, it is still as clean as new, everything that should be there is there, not even a bump.

After sending it back to the leather notebook, Wei Ran took out the huge medical box again.There are also a lot of medical equipment and medicines in here, but in addition, there is an unsealed yellow envelope and a set of white coats.

Carefully opening the envelope, Wei Ran took out a page of letter paper from inside, and when he unfolded it, he saw it written with a beautiful brush, "Mr. saved lives and healed the wounded all night, and the great kindness of giving light and medical equipment can never be repaid." , give back a surgical gown as a token of appreciation——Nurse Chen left "

Silent for a long time, Wei Ran folded the letter paper in his hand and put it back into the envelope, and put it in the bottom of the medical box with great care. He solemnly picked up the white coat and unfolded it on his body. An old-fashioned mask in a coat pocket.

For a moment, he couldn't help thinking of the helpless little nurse in the Chinese medicine shop.

"Can you sew blood vessels?"

"will not"

"What about suturing muscle and epithelial tissue?"

"will not"

"It's okay, will the injection be?"

"Neither. I've only had two days of training."

The brief question and answer was the only communication he had with that nurse Chen, but the tone that gradually turned into tears made Wei Ran unforgettable.

He didn't know about Nurse Chen's experience, what she did before she became a nurse in the traditional Chinese medicine shop, let alone whether she survived or what happened to her before she died.

But he knew that that young nurse was also a hero in the defense of Teng County.

"I will cherish this white coat."

Wei Ran solemnly assured the medical box, then carefully took off the white coat on his body, folded it carefully, and put it back into the medical box.

In the early morning of the next day, Wei Ran bid farewell to his aunt Zhou Shujin who specially saw him off and Professor Alexei who asked for leave on the first day of work, and walked into the room carrying a heavy wooden piano case and a suitcase full of gifts. Airport.

Not long after, Wei Ran looked at the stack of black and white photos over and over again in the plane that started to climb violently, but his heart had already flown to the land of Sichuan and Shu, which is known as the land of abundance.
