War Photographer's Notebook

Chapter 438 Dividing the spoils
Carrying the Coke that was exchanged for a jug full of cold beer, Wei Ran strolled back.

Although the rumors inquired by the gendarmerie captain Sean and Tom, Randy and others are quite different, but anyway, the other party is willing to find him and take the initiative to explain, so no matter what happened before, it can naturally be revealed. passed.

After tidying up his mood and sneaking into the snoring tent, Wei Ran put the bottle of Coke sent by Sean on the ammunition box that served as a table, and then lay down on his bed.

Compared with the previous few nights, this night was much quieter, not only the sound of artillery disappeared, but even gunshots were seldom heard, which gave Wei Ran a rare and peaceful sleep.

However, before Wei Ran had time to finish a complete dream, he was awakened by the rustling sound. When he subconsciously grabbed the pistol pressed by the pillow and sat up violently, Lan, who had just taken off his helmet, Dee immediately raised his hands and shouted in panic, "It's me! Randy! It's me!"

"When did you come back?" Wei Ran put away his pistol and subconsciously asked nonsense, but at the same time, Pastor Tom was still snoring on his bed.

"Just came back." Randy let go of his raised hands and heaved a sigh of relief, "I was almost scared to pee by you."

"I was almost scared to pee by you." Wei Ran said angrily, "Why are you back?"

"It's almost dawn, of course I'll be back."

Randy took it for granted, showing off as he took off his boots, "Victor, it's a shame you didn't come with me. That bastard Marshall and his new friends caught more than one woman! Yes Four! Quite four! My God, I've never been on the same night as"

"You'd better keep your voice down." Wei Ran pointed to Tom who was still snoring, "Otherwise you wake up Tom, and he and his God may judge you again."

"That's right." Randy quickly lowered his voice when he heard the words, and lay on the bed and said, "Victor, I'm going to sleep for a while, otherwise I might not even be able to lift the stretcher after dawn."

"Marshall doesn't plan to come back?" Wei Ran also lay down and asked.

"Their camp is near the road, and they will stay there at night. I'm afraid they won't be back in the next few days." Randy thought for a while and said, "But if you are interested tomorrow, you can go and see it with me."

"We'll talk about tomorrow's matter tomorrow, go to sleep." Wei Ran responded perfunctorily, then closed his eyes, not taking Randy's invitation to heart.

Not long after this sleep, Wei Ran was awakened again by the movement and light outside the tent.When he opened the tent door, the sea surface hundreds of meters away had been dyed reddish gold by the morning sun.

After washing his face indiscriminately and throwing a piece of chewing gum into his mouth, Wei Ran walked towards the operating room not far away while moving his shoulders.

"Good morning, Dr. Victor." Nurse Jenny and Wei Ran greeted each other.

"How is the condition of the wounded?"

"Two people died last night, and one seems to have died this morning. They are all seriously injured." Jenny said, pointing to the busy trucks in the distance, "In addition, part of the operating room will be moved to a place closer to the front line today. .”

"Shall we go too?"

"We don't have to go"

Jenny said happily, "Because of the unfair treatment you received the day before yesterday, Dr. Harrison specifically asked you to stay behind, and I can stay with you."

"It seems that you can be lazy today?"

"You can be lazy, but I still have to take care of those wounded."

Nurse Jenny was optimistic enough, and said happily, "But no matter what, it's much safer than being on the front line."

"In that case, call me whenever you need something."

"Of course! But now you can go to the dining car to have breakfast." After Nurse Jenny finished speaking, she quickly walked towards the wounded tent not far away with a tray full of medicines.

Although there is no need to go to the front line, it is equally busy here, and the busy people are not limited to Nurse Jenny. In the distance, the engineers of the Sea Bee Battalion are still building various fire bunkers around the clock, consolidating the area little by little. The defense system of the hard-won battlefield.

However, just as Jenny said, Wei Ran was really free. From morning to noon, the only job he was busy with for a while was to perform a hemostasis operation on a prisoner who had been kidnapped from nowhere. , By the way, I kindly helped to dislocate my limbs.

However, what he didn't expect was that when the sun was about to set in the afternoon, Marshall and Randy ran back from the front line, cursing and working together to carry a severely burned and seriously wounded man.

"Why did you come back?"

Wei Ran asked happily, "Marshall, didn't you go to drive a flame-breathing tank? Why did you become a stretcher soldier?"

"How do I know what those idiots think?" Marshall cursed and took out a pack of cigarettes and lit it, then handed the cigarette case and matches to Randy.

"This bastard burned all those women last night this morning"

Randy said helplessly, "And I don't know which bastard reported the tank driver who was replaced by him."

"And then came back?"

Wei Ran asked in surprise, but in fact, he already had a rough guess in his heart. If there is no accident, the gendarmerie captain named Xiao En probably did it.

"Not only is he back, he can't even drive the bulldozer this time."

Randy's tone suddenly became more schadenfreude, "He was sent to repair the bulldozer, and he was not allowed to go to the front line until the island was completely taken, otherwise he would be sent to a military court."

"You can really cause trouble." Wei Ran pretended to shake his head helplessly, obviously not wanting Marshall to see that he already knew some inside facts.

"I can always find an opportunity"

Marshall winked at Randy, and waited for the latter to lift the empty stretcher with him before continuing, "Go back to the tent first, the idiot who drove me back told me to go to the pastor to confess, what should I confess? Confess the tattoo on Reverend Tom's white ass?"

"Marshall! Do you bastard think my ears were deafened by shells?!" Tom, on crutches, limped out of a tent full of wounded and complained loudly.

"Hey! Hurry up now that your ears are still working! I want to ask you to confess the good things you did this morning!"

Marshall yelled at the top of his voice, and then winked at Randy again. The two unhurriedly carried the stretcher to Tom's side, forced each other to lie on the stretcher, and let the two of them hold him. Bring back the tent.

When Wei Ran fastened the tent door and hung up two empty cans, Tom stood up straight again with the support of Marshall and Randy.

"What trouble have you got into, bastard?" Tom asked with a headache.

"Those little things are put aside first," Marshall said, turning the stretcher over, "Look at the good things I brought back for you!"

Before the words were finished, Marshall and Randy took out bulging medical kits from the pockets on the back of the tent, and even took out four ugly Nanfang [-] pistols and four handles that were only half a meter long at most. Katana swords, of course, you can call them wakizashi.

"You picked these up?" Tom asked in surprise.

"Marshall picked it up. When he let me go last night, he just wanted to hide these valuables in advance."

While Randy was talking, he had pulled over an ammunition box, then opened the medical bag in his hand, and dumped the contents inside.

Amidst the crashing sound, gold rings of different styles, gold necklaces, various bracelets, hairpins and even gold teeth all fell into the box with a crash.

This is not over yet, what came out of the medical bag that Marshall opened turned out to be all kinds of watches and pocket watches.

Immediately afterwards, the third and fourth medical kits were opened together, and what was poured out were a handful of folding fans, each of which seemed to be made of horn, but was inlaid with complicated patterns, hairpins and even combs with complicated patterns. Decorated jewelry boxes and cigarette cases.

Shaking the medical kit in his hand, Marshall threw it away, and then picked up the last two remaining medical kits with Randy, but this time, Marshall did not directly pour the contents into the wooden box, but He reached out and took out a camera and a few film rolls.As for the medical bag in Randy's hand, it was all film.

"Where did you get the camera?" Wei Ran asked in surprise.

"It's from the women we caught yesterday, and so is the film."

Marshall handed the medical bag containing the camera and film to Wei Ran nonchalantly, "The film inside is unused, we can take some group photos when we have time."

"What's in Randy's hand?" Tom asked dully.

"those are used"

Marshall winked and explained, "I used it last night. I heard from Randy that your ass was hurt, so I thought that since you can't join our party, at least you can take pictures of those wonderful moments as souvenirs. .”

"Marshall, you're going to hell." Tom said while reaching out to Randy, "Remember to give me more."

"Everyone has a share!"

As Marshall said, he handed out the first four pistols to everyone, "One for each, keep it as a souvenir."

"I'll forget it"

Wei Ran, who had been fiddling with the camera just now, was the first to wave his hand and refuse, "I don't want this kind of broken gun, it will hurt me."

"Victor was right"

Tom continued, "The first enemy I killed on this island was with this pistol. Its first shot missed my helmet, and the second shot jammed again. Otherwise I would have no chance of killing him."

"I just said no one likes this kind of scrap metal"

Randy said as expected, "I should have listened to me and brought back those beautiful china teapots."

"You guys are really picky. I even found a lot of bullets on purpose."

Marshall angrily threw the three pistols and a few boxes of ammunition under the bed, then picked up the wakizashi and asked, "Are you interested in these?"

"Randy and I used to see these things when we were carrying stretchers."

Tom refused again, "Marshall, what's the matter with you? It's like we've never been to the front, so you can't bring something interesting back?"

"You might as well just ask me to bring you a beautiful girl back"

Marshall casually divided the leftover watches and other items in the box into four parts, "You won't refuse these things, will you?"

"At least I won't refuse"

While speaking, Randy stuffed his share into the bag indiscriminately, and at the same time he muttered, "I'm such an idiot, why didn't I think of picking up some valuable loot before?"

"At least you're really stupid about this one"

Marshall said proudly, "If I were to carry the stretcher, it would only take two days at most to fill this tent."

"If you were to carry the stretcher instead, I'm afraid you won't be able to carry a single wounded person back in two days."

Wei Ran casually threw the threat he had just fancy on his bed, and then pointed to his share of gold and silver and said softly, "Forget about these, you can share them, but this one How about I get the camera and the unused film?"

"Victor, I think you may be the generous God that Tom said." Marshall immediately divided the part that belonged to Wei Ran into three parts.

"You guys share mine too!"

Tom randomly picked some jewelry and two combs and put them in his pocket, then picked up a watch and put it on his hand, "I don't need these things either, but remember to share more with those films."

"Almost forgot, you're a damn rich man."

Without further ado, Marshall pushed the part that belonged to Wei Ran to Randy, and then pulled the part that belonged to Tom into his helmet.

"Looks like our Reverend Tom just wants a woman right now," Randy joked as he bagged his loot.

"I heard he's on the ass."

"Shut up!" Tom grabbed a pocket watch and threw it over without waiting for Marshall to finish. "Didn't you scum come to me to confess?"

"no need"

While Marshall was speaking, he handed Tom a large pack of film recording the friendship between the United States and Japan last night, and said proudly, "I have just bribed the servant of God, so I don't need to repent."
