The country is broken

"Where are you talking? We have all heard about Comrade Li Wei's contribution to the Anti-Japanese War. We really admire it." The shopkeeper of the pharmacy did not know where he learned about Li Wei.

"Excuse me, what is the shopkeeper's name?" Li Wei remembered that he forgot to ask the shopkeeper's name. He was not surprised that the shopkeeper of the drug store knew something about him. task personnel.

"My surname is Lin, and my name is Lin Qing. I have been in the party for four years. For work needs, you can call me shopkeeper Lin. May I ask who is that person outside the door?" Shopkeeper Lin said cautiously. He had been told by gestures and winks that Li Wei had brought another person this time, and the organization only said that Li Wei had come alone.

"Oh, the one who came with me outside is called Fan Guowen, a troubled overseas Chinese who was separated from his parents. He happened to meet him on the road. Seeing where he could go and find it difficult to survive, he took him along and found his parents. Just hand him back, he doesn't know about my mission." Li Wei explained that people on the periphery of the organization still maintain vigilance and confidentiality.

"Okay, now I know what to do. I have already arranged your residence. It is in a small courtyard of our own comrades in the east of the city. May I ask whether Mr. Gu will live with you, or I will arrange it for him. " Shopkeeper Lin said. [

"Let's live together. Let's divide into two rooms. If you have time, please pay attention and help find the whereabouts of his parents. Also, do you have any information about us this time? I want to get acquainted." Li Wei decided on a good place to stay. Then continued.

"Here is the information of the College of Engineering of Northwest Associated University. The student union has developed several underground party members who can cooperate with you in selecting talents. We have already arranged for you to enter the school. It is free of examination and recommended. Do you need to use a pseudonym?" Shopkeeper Lin handed over With more than a dozen pieces of paper, he was clearly thoughtful and had already arranged the details of Li Wei.

The biggest advantage of universities during the Anti-Japanese War is that they don’t have to pay tuition fees, they only need to pay some books and food expenses, and there are no restrictions on the status of students entering the university. Regardless of family background, as long as they pass the entrance examination, they can go to university .

Li Wei read the information carefully, it was very detailed, and then he raised his head and said: "Very good, this information is very useful, I don't want to use a pseudonym, I will use my original name, there are many people named Li Wei in the world, and just don't recommend it , you have to take the exam directly to get in, and recommended students are too eye-catching." After reading the materials, he took out the zppo lighter he brought from Hyundai, made a handsome lighting gesture, and lightly lit the materials until reduced to ashes.

"Are you sure it's okay? What if you don't pass the exam?" Shopkeeper Lin was a little worried. It seems that there are not many people in the Eighth Route Army who can read and write. Going to college is another matter.

"Don't worry, I don't even have this confidence?" Li Wei smiled faintly. In modern Chinese universities, the knowledge content is only equivalent to that of high school, which is already very good. For his kind of linear algebra and calculus Those who are good at everything, have even read the books of modern universities, and they are afraid that they will not be admitted to this kind of universities that only have the level of modern high schools.

"Okay, I'll do it right away, let someone take you to your residence to settle down first." Shopkeeper Lin felt relieved, it seemed that the quality of the people sent by the superior was indeed different.

Li Wei took Fan Guowen, who had been waiting impatiently at the door, and a pharmacy clerk to the pre-arranged residence.

As a temporary residence for college life in Chenggu County, the landlord is a barber, surnamed Jin, who has good haircutting skills. The first floor of the house is his barber shop. He is a good friend of Lin, the shopkeeper of the pharmacy, when he was young. Although he is not a party member, he also works for the organization and uses the barber shop to cover up the organization's reception and hidden work.

Thanks to the pharmacist, Li Wei was arranged to live in a small attic on the second floor under the leadership of Master Jin, and Fan Guowen was arranged in a single room next to it, but seeing Fan Guowen's dirty appearance, Master Jin He and his wife brought hot water for him to take a bath and change clothes.

Li Wei looked at the small room. The entrance on one side was just facing the street. There was a desk and a few chairs in front of it. Mosquito nets, washbasins, towels and mats are all available.

Surrounding the house twice, he found a relatively secret place on the rafters of the attic roof, took out the weapon parts in the suitcase and stored them in, then tidied it up again and sprinkled it with dust to disguise it.

This is a knock on the door of the room.

Li Wei opened the door and saw that the landlord, Mr. Jin, was standing at the door holding some things.

"Master Jin, please come in, please come in." Li Wei hurriedly let Master Jin in.

"Okay, okay, Comrade Li, the place here is a bit small, don't look outside, don't be polite, just treat it as your own home." Master Jin was very enthusiastic.

"Then it will take some time to trouble Master Jin." Li Wei said politely.

"Here is the application form for Chenggu County Middle School. The exam will start in three days. There are also some review textbooks, which you will also need. Take a rest today. I have some food in the kitchen for you. Let's eat first." Go." Master Jin placed the bowl in his hand on the square table in the middle of the room.

"Well, it's really troublesome, Master Jin." Li Wei looked at the steaming white rice in the bowl on the table, some pickles were sprinkled on it, and there was a golden poached egg with an attractive aroma. Li Wei couldn't help but let his index finger Dazed, he didn't eat well all the way, and he unceremoniously pulled out the chopsticks to pick up the rice with extra vegetables. [

"How old is Comrade Li?" Master Jin looked kindly at Li Wei who was devouring the food.

"Nineteen!" Li Wei said without raising his head. The white rice and poached eggs that he hadn't eaten for a long time had a special temptation.

"You're so young, I really can't tell, I thought you were in your 20s, have you ever studied before?" Master Jin seemed to be doing his homework, and it was quite lively when he came to someone's house, especially when Li Wei's words and deeds brought a This kind of special affinity makes Master Jin feel like a distant nephew.
