Soul to the Rhine

Chapter 69 Follow-up
I don’t know, the square was completely in chaos.

In fact, Rosia had no idea who was brave or stupid to attack the German officer's residence.

Not to mention that there are actually many German soldiers guarding here, and secondly, almost every German officer has a mission. The ones who really have nothing to do in Paris are the SS Skeleton Division and the Gestapo, and those people are all living in Paris. In the main district of Paris.

Most of the people who live here are defense officers, and there are actually not many who are at home for Christmas.

Maybe their sneak attack will kill a few fish that slipped through the net, but they will pay a greater price afterwards, and may affect the entire people of Paris.Even though Germany was now in a sensitive period of negotiating a contract with the French, Hitler would not allow his officer corps to suffer such an insult.

This incident came and went as quickly as it happened, and it soon ceased.There were a few more bodies in the square, but overall there were no major casualties.

Rosia pulled Pino up, then helped Aunt Mesa, who was a little unable to walk, and staggered out.

People on the avenue had long since fled. Not far away was the German officer's apartment complex, but the sky was already filled with flames. Many apartments had collapsed in the middle. German soldiers were putting out the fire outside. I don't know if anyone inside was injured or dead. officer.

The entrance to the avenue had been sealed, and two groups of German soldiers with guns angrily blocked the entrance.When they saw the three Luosiyas approaching in embarrassment, they immediately stopped them and pointed their guns at them.

"who?"

"I, we are family members here..." Rosia was a little nervous. She looked inside and didn't see Werner at all, and the soldiers were still watching them eagerly.

"We are Chief Werner's family. How is he doing now? Is he in there?"

When the soldier heard the familiar German language, his expression softened: "Are you talking about Major Werner? Yes, he is inside and should not be injured."

After hearing the news, Aunt Mesa immediately relaxed, only to realize that her own nerves had been stretched to the point of breaking.Rosia continued to ask: "So, can we go in?"

"No!" The soldier refused directly: "From now on, this place will be closed under martial law. No one can enter except soldiers and doctors."

Aunt Mesa became anxious again: "But our home is inside, what should we do if we don't go in?"

"This is an order and must be obeyed." The soldier was unmoved.

Rosia glanced inside again. The surrounding area was completely sealed off and soldiers were everywhere. It was very strict. It seemed that they would not be able to enter until the perpetrator was caught.

"Yes, we will respect your mission. So, may I know what happened inside? The officers inside usually have a good relationship. We are very worried."

The soldier glanced at them again, then shook his head: "I'm sorry, I don't know. I only know that someone attacked the officers living here. For details, maybe you can only wait until Major Werner comes out to ask."

It was indeed a sneak attack!Rosia said enough: "Well, thank you for your hard work."

Under the watchful eyes of a group of soldiers, she could only pull Aunt Meisha and Pino away temporarily.

"Xia, what's going on? Why would someone attack here?" Aunt Mesa still couldn't let go. She would always think of the shattered appearance of the apartment inside.If they hadn't come out to take pictures today, if Pino hadn't wanted to play in the square, they might have been buried in it.

Rosia didn't know how to explain it to her, so she could only ask her tactfully: "Aunt, you should know how we live in Paris legitimately, right?"

Aunt Mesa was stunned for a moment, then trembled: "Are you saying that the French were the ones who attacked us?"

It seemed that Aunt Mesa had a strong sense of involvement and had already regarded herself as the target of the sneak attacker.Rosia shook her head: "I don't know, maybe he's French, but maybe he's not."

She still remembered that the last time she and Heinrich were attacked in the main area, the soldier she met halfway was not French, but she couldn't tell which country he was from.There are too many countries in Europe, and almost every one of them has a grudge against Germany. She can't analyze who is responsible for this sneak attack. Just like the soldier said, the specific estimate can only be asked after Werner comes out. .

The blockade was carried out very quickly, and it didn't take long for a large number of French police to come to assist the German soldiers.

Although Germany has occupied France, it is easier for the French police to handle some matters, such as dispersing nearby civilians and managing the outermost blockade.

Pino was young and would be greatly shocked by such a scene, while Aunt Mesa was worried about Werner's safety and was in a trance.Rosia was caught in the middle, and suddenly found that she was the calmest person, and now she was considered a person with seniors and juniors, and she had to take care of both sides.

Waiting outside was not an option, because she was out to take photos and send letters today, so she brought some money with her, and Aunt Mesa also had a lot with her, so she arranged for the two of them to stay in a nearby hotel, and she came down again , prepare to observe the situation and find where Werner is.

There are basically no civilians around here, except for German soldiers and French police. There are not many high-end hardware facilities in this residential area, and it is quite far from the hospital in District [-].As soon as she came over from the hotel, she saw several stretchers being carried out from the blockade area, and several soldiers were shouting and directing them.

"Who are you? You can't go in here. Leave now!"

Rosia only glanced twice before she caught the attention of the leading soldier. She quickly took out her work ID: "I, I am a doctor, a doctor at the North Central Red Cross Hospital in the [-]th arrondissement of Paris."

This hospital is famous throughout Paris. The soldier was stunned for a moment, looked at her critically, and took the work permit.

"Paul, come here!" He called back, and soon another soldier ran over, and it turned out to be the one he met at the entrance of the avenue before.

"Sir, what are your instructions?"

"Take her in." He pointed at Rosia and returned the work permit to her: "Okay, you can go in, but please remember to be careful about your words and deeds. We will send soldiers to follow you all the time."

"Yes, yes, thank you!" Rosia nodded quickly and followed the soldier in.

The lockdown looks very strict from the outside, but actually when I went inside I found that it was even stricter inside, almost to the point where there is one person every three steps and one sentry every five steps.There was a team of soldiers guarding each apartment building, and some firefighting officers and soldiers braved the fire and rushed inside to save people.

Not far into the house, Rosia discovered that Aunt Mesa's house was unfortunately located in the area where the collapse was most severe, but fortunately, the collapse only reached the neighbor's apartment.Although I don't know what's going on inside, it hasn't been affected much on the outside.

Rosia stood in front of the apartment, looking around, wanting to open the door and take a look.She walked up the steps and took out the door key, but was stopped by the soldiers behind her.

"Miss, I have to follow you to protect your safety. There may be a sneak attacker hiding here, so please don't go in until our soldiers are completely sure that this place is safe."

"Uh, this is my home, can't I enter?"

"Not now." The soldier emphasized.

Rosia was speechless. Well, the Germans were always cautious and she would not argue with them in this regard.

Werner didn't know where she had gone, and she hadn't seen him yet. She took two more steps forward, and suddenly a stretcher was carried out from the apartment next to her. Several soldiers were running quickly, and they were lying on it. with a German officer.

"Doctor, where is the doctor?"

The soldiers behind Rosia rushed over like the wind, and brought her up: "Is Captain Tal seriously injured? This lady is a doctor."

"I don't know. The captain's condition is very bad. It seems that he was shot, but he couldn't find the location."

Rosia was dragged forward and took a look. The officer's face was pale, his face was sweating, and his hands and feet were shaking. It was a very familiar symptom.

"I can't save it. It's a penetrating heart rupture. I need to be sent to the hospital immediately." She shook her head directly and reminded them: "If you want to send it to the fourth district, you'd better find Dr. Jim. His professional level is The highest in the entire hospital.”

Several soldiers hurried away carrying a stretcher.

Most of the way along this avenue, most of the officers were not at home, and the casualties were not large, but anyone who was injured was basically in danger. She didn't bring a medical kit with her, and she couldn't even do first aid. The only thing she could do was Tell them which doctor is more suitable for this officer.

After walking a short distance, Rosia finally saw Werner. He was giving orders to several groups of soldiers on the side of the road, and he didn't look injured.

She breathed a sigh of relief and stood on the side of the road waiting. Werner quickly finished explaining. He turned around and saw her stunned for a moment before striding over.

"How did you get in?"

"Work permit!" Rosia waved the ID on her hand: "Are you okay? My aunt is very worried about you, but I think she is not in a good condition, so let her and Pino stay in the hotel over the square first."

Werner shook his head: "It's okay, but how many days off do you have?"

"Ah?" This thought was a bit jumpy, and Rosia reflected for a while before saying, "Three days, what's wrong?"

"If you can ask for leave, you can go a few days later." Werner's expression was a little solemn: "Although it has not been found out yet, I guess that these people are probably from the fourth area, and the attack techniques are very unfamiliar. , just not running slowly.”

"Then?"

"This place will be taken over by the Gestapo soon, and I can't control the affairs here. You should try your best to stay at home and not go out."

A soldier's analysis is naturally reasonable, but some things can be calculated, and some things no one can say for sure. Rosia has always felt that disaster cannot be avoided, not to mention that she stays quietly in the hospital, as long as she is not sent When you go to the battlefield, no one is looking for trouble, so there is basically no danger.

So three days later, when it was time to go to work, she returned to the hospital on time.

The apartment was sealed off and they had been living outside for the past few days. Aunt Mesa caught a cold suddenly and could only lie in bed to rest.As one of the "victims", Werner was also summoned to the main area to collect evidence. Only Pino was left at home. She was worried and took him to the hospital.

Christmas has just passed, and most people in the hospital are beaming.

Rosia was very popular in the hospital. People greeted her frequently on the street. Little Pino made a complete guest appearance as her son. She explained all the way to the thoracic surgery building that the rumors were still the same. At first she was a little embarrassed, but later she simply Don’t care anymore.

There were not many people in the office, most of them were unmarried people, and the nurses with children had taken a few days off, but Vitti came a day early, and her eyes widened when she saw Pino.

"Where did this child come from? Is it yours, Doctor Luo?"

Rosia could no longer change her face in response to such questions. She bent down and said to Pino: "This is your sister Vitti. Take a look, is she pretty?"

Pino is very sensible, especially in front of outsiders. He can be called a girl killer. He is not tall, but he held Vitti's hand and gave her a kiss. With the sound of "Boom", Viti's heart almost melted.

"Oh my god, if this were my son, I wouldn't even let him go out." Viti yelled exaggeratedly, not wanting to take his hand back.

Rosia couldn't help but laugh. Pino had never encountered an opponent in this cheating-like skill, so she felt free to bring him here.

"Well, where is Bello? I haven't seen her for a long time. Is she okay?"

Vitti looked at Pino with a smile and said casually: "It's okay. I heard it was healed before Christmas, but I took leave a few days ago and I don't know what I was doing."

"By the way, we don't have to go to work in the afternoon, we have to go to the backyard for class."

what?Rosia was stunned for a moment: "Class?"

"Well, Dr. Jim is going to give a lecture, and the entire thoracic surgeons and nurses are going to listen."

"Why?" After staying in the hospital for almost half a year, I have never heard of such an event.

"I'm not sure, but did you hear that there was a sneak attack in District [-] on Christmas Day? It seems that several injured German officers were sent over and asked Dr. Jim to perform surgery. You know, didn't Dr. Jim still... He's single, and it's Christmas again. He originally had a date with a beautiful girl in a cafe, but he messed it up like this. He must be in a bad mood."

"..." Rosia felt guilty and wanted to wipe her sweat!

"Don't worry too much!" Vitti picked up Pino and said indifferently: "Doctor Jim lost his temper, just train us."

"Don't you need to worry about this?" She kept remembering Bello's instructions when she first came here, and she didn't dare to get close to him.

Vitti waved his hand: "Don't worry, this year's new batch of intern nurses are beautiful and single. He still has to protect his image."

"..."

Since there was nothing to do in the morning, Rosia and Vitti went directly to the backyard.The same group of Jews still live in the backyard. They have been resting here for a long time and their health has improved a lot. However, currently only the women are in the hospital, and the men, except for their children, have basically gone out.

The hospital only takes them in on a humanitarian basis and does not interfere with their activities, so it is not clear where they have gone.

There was a four-year-old boy among the Jews. He was about the same age as Pino. The two quickly played together and soon ran to the lawn below.
