War Photographer's Notebook

Chapter 714 Comrade Head Nurse Who Loves Cleanliness
At the entrance of the abandoned mine No. 52, Wei Ran, who had had a few drinks last night, also opened his eyes around [-]:[-] in the morning.

At this time, the living cabin of the transport vehicle was still quiet and warm, but outside the window was a white and drowsy scene. Not to mention the abandoned buildings in the distance, even the mine entrance tens of meters away could not be seen clearly.

"Why is there so much snow in this ghost place?"

Wei Ran stretched his waist and muttered something, pulled away the sleeping dog lying on his shoes, put on his clothes and pushed open the skylight.

Perhaps it was thanks to the heavy snow, or maybe it was because he had left the range of the abandoned building, this time even the wolves did not come to watch him.

But even so, he still manipulated the transport vehicle to arch back and forth, relying on the wide tracks to compact the surrounding snow. By the way, he also filled the water storage tank in the cargo hold with clean snow.

After finishing these chores, Wei Ran ate breakfast leisurely, and waited until ten o'clock in the morning, then put on snowshoes and walked alone to the mine not far away.

What he didn't expect was that in the first mine, he got something.After entering the mine less than 20 meters away, Wei Ran found that it was extraordinarily spacious like a hall.

In the center of the hall, there are two pairs of narrow rails that lead to the depths of the mine. On the left hand side of the rails against the wall, there are a lot of tools that are only used in manual mining.But at the wall on the right hand side of the track, there is only a charcoal ashes spreading for more than [-] meters, and some wooden frames that have not been completely burned.

As for what this wooden frame was used for before, Wei Ran does not know, but only looking at the occasional metal parts that can be seen in the ashes, at least it can be roughly inferred that there were many kerosene lamps placed here.

Carefully walking along the railway track to the depth of the mine for less than 20 meters, Wei Ran had to stop, because the mine had come to an end, and further on, the cave had already been blocked by landslide rocks Strictly.

"Or was it artificially blown up?"

Wei Ran squatted in front of a metal box and muttered something. He had only seen this box in the abandoned hospital yesterday, but the two boxes of the same style in the abandoned hospital were filled with TNT.

Keeping the clues found here in his heart, Wei Ran turned around and walked out of the mine, and went to check the other mines one by one.

As expected, there is not much difference between the remaining three mines, and even the way of destroying the mines is exactly the same and undisguised.

In a disguised form, the blocked mine also blocked Wei Ran's investigation of the truth. Apart from being able to roughly confirm that it was probably the mine blown up by the executioner Mikita, he didn't know why the mine was blown up. what.

Could it be that those demantoids are hidden in the mine?

Wei Ran muttered with an ugly face, but in the end he could only return to the warm living cabin under the heavy snow.

All the clues are now interrupted, but all the clues seem to point to the mine that was blown up again.Not only that, but on the second floor of the abandoned hospital, two large boxes of explosives were deliberately left, as if to invite those who found this place to use those explosives to open the mine.

But Wei Ran smelled the unique smell of traps from inside, and he didn't know if there would be any danger in opening the mine.But he had a strong premonition that even if he opened the mine, he might not gain anything.

After thinking about it, he finally took out the food box in the metal book, and placed the two Nagant revolvers inside, the flagon, medal, pocket watch, hand warmer and other items on the table one by one.

Immediately afterwards, he went to the cab to fetch the TT33 pistol and the SKS semi-automatic rifle he found on the second floor of the abandoned hospital.

Putting these things on the table one by one like a magic circle, Wei Ran hesitated while holding the enamel bar with hawthorn leaf tea.

Now, he thinks he has guessed at least 80% of what happened at that time, but even so, he still failed to find the main purpose of this visit—the possible demantoid treasure.

And obviously, unless the collapsed mine is blown up, or even if it is blown up, the remaining doubts may not necessarily be answered.Therefore, all he can use now is the ability of the metal book.

But this brings up new problems. Assuming that the metal notebooks respond to all these things on the table, they will obviously send themselves back to two time periods. The first time period is undoubtedly "I was at 52 The years when Mine No. 52 was an executioner/doctor" series, and the second time period is the "Return to Mine No. [-] Treasure Hunting Battle" series.

It is not known how long the interval was between, but it seems that it will take ten years at least.This brings me back to the worry I had when I first found the pistol and the three subjects in the old book—whether it will take me a few years to go back this time.

Although the longest time since he got the metal book was only a little over a month, but he is not sure that the broken book will not teach him a lesson.

"You can't think so."

Wei Ran picked up the two revolvers and looked at them. If he could go back as a prisoner in charge of Mine No. 52, considering that all prisoners of war were detained here, it would not be too bad to stay for a few years .

What's more, what if there is really a demantoid in the end?So it must be blood money?
After thinking about it and finding enough reasons to convince himself, Wei Ran gritted his teeth and finally took out the metal book.

After all, restoring the historical truth is one aspect. The main purpose of his trip to come here is to make a fortune.Now that the clues are all cut off, I can't really go back empty-handed.

While he waited nervously, the metal book slowly turned to page 28, and the quill that was stuck on the cover slowly floated up, drawing two patterns the size of a cigarette pack on the light yellow paper.

There are actually two this time?
Wei Ran muttered to himself, in the pattern on the left, there are two Nagant revolvers placed on the table, and in the middle of the two pistols, there are two pocket watches and two jugs.Look at the second pattern again, but it is just a TT33 pistol against the back of the head.

At the same time, the metal quill also wrote lines of text under the two juxtaposed patterns:
Character Identity: Executioner Victor

Return mission 10: Assist the military doctor Gusen Koka and the executioner Mikita Dusov to keep secrets, complete the executioner's own tasks, take at least [-] photos,
Return Mission [-]: Assist Mikita Dusov to complete the agreement
two tasks?Fortunately!There is no wrong team!

Wei Ran heaved a sigh of relief the moment the white light came on, and then he also saw that among the things that could be used this time, not only were there portable jugs and basically useless pens, but there were also things that should never appear in the place. The anti-Japanese sword here!

I'm afraid it's not the ancestor's manifestation, right?
Wei Ran swallowed excitedly, and as his vision was filled with white light again, he gradually smelled the unique smell of vodka, and at the same time, he also felt that he was holding a cup in his hand.

"First of all, the first glass of wine, let us congratulate Dr. Gusen for winning the Order of the Red Banner of Labor. Cheers!" Before his sight was completely restored, Wei Ran heard the toast from his side.

Blinking hard to remember his eyes, Wei Ran brought the cup in his hand to his mouth, and poured the vodka inside into his mouth.

After he put down the cup, his vision returned to normal.Immediately afterwards, Wei Ran found that besides himself, there were three people sitting around this not-so-big table, two men and one woman.

Sitting opposite was a Slavic man in a white coat and highly myopic glasses. On his chest was a conspicuous Order of the Red Banner of Labor pinned to his chest.

Sitting on the left hand side is an Asian man with an obvious scar on his neck.If Wei Ran guessed correctly, he probably has Mongolian blood.

Opposite him, on Wei Ran's right, was a nurse also wearing a white coat.

The blond nurse was young and pretty, but the drunkard who sniffed his cuffs after drinking was too sophisticated. Simply put, she seemed to be a woman.

While the man with the scar on his neck was pouring wine for everyone, Wei Ran also looked around.

This room looks more like an office. There are white coats hanging on the hanger on the side of the door. On the desk not far from the wine table, in addition to the two Nagant revolvers, there are two wine jugs. Two Rocket pocket watches, and even a hand warmer.The layout of these few things is exactly the same as the first photo drawn with a quill just now.

"Second glass of wine, let's congratulate Dr. Goosen for finally leaving this ghostly place."

While Wei Ran was quietly observing the three people, the man with the scar on his neck had already filled the enamel jar in front of everyone with wine, and he had thought of a reason for the second glass of wine.

"Mikita, I won't leave so soon, my research is not finished yet."

The man wearing myopia glasses held up the cup and said, "I won't be leaving for at least two months."

"So you'll stay and spend Christmas with us?" asked the nurse, who had finished her drink.

"Zoya is right"

Dr. Goosen picked up the cup and drank it slowly, picked up a piece of ham, sniffed it vigorously, threw it into his mouth, and said while chewing, "I will definitely stay and spend Christmas with you, and Sasha also sent a lot of candies And vodka, I'm going to go back after drinking all that vodka with you."

"What about Sasha?"

The female nurse named Zhuoya also picked up a piece of ham and threw it into her mouth and asked, "Since she was pregnant, she has returned to the warm Kazan, and now our sons are all born, are you going to let her take Sebastian with her?" Does Elsie spend Christmas by herself?"

"Let Celci accompany Sasha first this Christmas."

Dr. Goosen refilled the glass in front of him, "But you, Zhuoya, Mikita, when are you going to get married? I'm going to attend your wedding before I go back to Kazan.

"I have no intention of marrying him"

A nurse named Zhuo Ya pushed her cup forward, "And even if I get married, I don't want to hold a wedding in such a ghostly place."

"One day you will leave here too"

Dr. Goosen picked up the cup, touched everyone, and said in a very firm tone, "I firmly believe that you will not be trapped here for the rest of your life like those prisoners of war."

"Speaking of this"

Zhuo Ya sneered, picked up the cigarette case on the table, popped a cigarette out of her mouth and lit it skillfully, "Do you know Irene?"

"I know, that red-haired girl from Lidunwan." Dr. Goosen said casually, "I remember she was a nurse who was only sent this winter, and she is a very kind girl."

"Kind?"

Zhuoya sprayed a cloud of blue smoke towards the overhead light, "It's really kind, can you believe it? She never fell in love with a short and ugly prisoner of war, just because the prisoner of war could sing to her listen."

"Falling in love with a prisoner of war? So it's really her? I thought everyone was joking about this." Mikita raised his head in surprise, and then asked happily, "Tell me what's going on." .”

"Actually, it's nothing. She secretly sent food and wool socks to the prisoner of war, but was caught by the head nurse." Zhuo Ya spread her hands, "This matter has been reported to the political commissar."

"What did Comrade Political Commissar say?" Wei Ran, who had been listening just now, asked.

"Comrade Political Commissar Said So"

Zhuo Ya cleared her throat, and said in a tone of voice, "Young girls have the right to fall in love freely, and none of us can stop that. No matter who kind Irene falls in love with, we have no right to stop it.

But everyone should remember that not only are any French prisoners of war in Mine 52 not allowed to have a name, they are not even entitled to have human rights.

The French who started the war should have been grateful to us for keeping them alive from the day they became our captives.

For this reason, they should work harder and dig more ore to repay our kindness, food and warm shelter, instead of wasting time and energy on things that are meaningless to them.

Comrade head nurse, since he still has energy, you can arrange some new jobs for him. "

"So he's still alive?" Gu Sen asked with a strange expression.

"Probably still alive, if it's warm enough in their toilet."

Zhuo Ya gloated and said, "In the afternoon, the head nurse took us to check the sanitation of the shacks where the prisoners lived. The head nurse thought that the toilets were too dirty, which would affect the health of the prisoners and thus affect the mining speed. "

"So the prisoner of war has been cleaning up the feces accumulated in the toilet since dinner, and let the prisoners who live in the same shack watch and learn from it."

Mikita took the topic and continued, "I also went to see it. Comrade head nurse is a very hygienic lady. She asked the romantic prisoner to take off his clothes and disinfect them, um, all the clothes."

"And let Irene help her lover wash all the rags"

Zhuo Ya spread her hands, "I want all of us to watch and learn from the sidelines until the rags are clean enough to be used as gauze. Because of this, we didn't even have dinner."

"Comrade head nurse is really a clean person"

Gu Sen smacked his lips, "Although this kind of thing sounds a bit cruel, it really needs to be snuffed out at the beginning. Otherwise, those prisoners of war will probably put all their thoughts on seducing women, and they will always be there." Can't they fall in love in a warm room, let's dig ore with a pickaxe?"

"I guess, Comrade Head Nurse must be an angel sent by Comrade Stalin?" Wei Ran couldn't help expressing his inner thoughts.

Hearing this, Zhuo Ya raised her glass, took the initiative to touch Wei Ran, and said with a smile, "If Comrade Head Nurse hears you commenting on her like this, she will definitely introduce the most beautiful nurse to you."

Wei Ran spread his hands when he heard the words, "I just told a fact."

　It is inconvenient to go out, and I have changed it every day in the past few days. I hope you will forgive me.
