Chapter 389 This Dad is Really Unreliable
Xiang Chu said disapprovingly: "How is it possible that I can't get out?"
After saying this, he hurriedly collected the useful items from Kenzaburo Kuritani.
Seeing him so calm, Song Xi smiled and said:
"Anyway, I've entrusted my life to you. It doesn't matter if you can't get out."
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "Then let's be a pair of star-crossed mandarin ducks! Let's go."
"Not serious!"
Song Xi said coquettishly, grabbing his hand with a false attitude.
The two held hands and walked in the direction they came from.
In such an environment, it is easy for single men and women to develop ambiguous feelings.
At this time, night had fallen, and the cave, which had been dimming and flickering, fell into complete darkness.
The two men walked quickly with flashlights and came to a fork in the road.
Xiang Chu carefully looked for footprints on the ground and chose the right direction.
Song Xi said happily: "Luckily I have a flashlight, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to find a way out."
Xiang Chu shook his head and said, "I don't think the power of this flashlight will be enough to get us out of the cave, so we should save it."
After saying this, he turned off the flashlight, took her hand, and walked forward in the dark.
Because the ground was uneven, Song Xi's high heels stepped on a mossy stone.
"Ouch!"
Song Xi screamed and accidentally twisted her foot.
Xiang Chu picked her up before she fell.
He then turned on the flashlight, took off her socks and examined her foot injuries.
Song Xi threatened: "Xiang Chu! My leg is broken, what are you going to do?"
Xiang Chu handed her the flashlight and said with a smile, "It's just a dislocation!"
He grasped her slender feet, twisted them forward and pulled them hard.
"what--!"
Song Xi couldn't help but cry out in pain.
But after turning my feet, it feels much better than before.
She said angrily: "You hurt me so much, you carry me on your back."
"it is good!"
Xiang Chu gladly accepted the order and walked forward carrying her on his back.
Song Xi was very happy and whispered in his ear:
"Xiang Chu! Have you ever carried Ning Caiwei on your back?"
Xiang Chu said tacitly: "Of course!"
Song Xi turned the flashlight on and off unhappily and continued to ask:
"Did you carry Kong Ling and Wang Manxue on your back in Zijin Mountain?"
Xiang Chu flatly denied: "No!"
Song Xi shouted, "You're still lying to me! They both said that."
Xiang Chu said helplessly: "It seems that I have memorized it."
Song Xi smiled slyly and said, "Your position is not firm. They didn't say anything at all."
Xiang Chu said bitterly: "My sister Xi! You still play hard to get."
Song Xi said domineeringly: "Humph! You will never escape from my palm in this life."
At this time, the flashlight in her hand flickered and was running out of battery.
Xiang Chu said anxiously: "Save some energy and find the next fork in the road."
Before he finished speaking, the light of the flashlight dimmed and went out.
Song Xi threw away the dead flashlight, hugged his neck tightly and said:
"Xiang Chu! It's up to you. I'm really sleepy. I'll take a nap first."
"All right!"
Xiang Chu wanted to cry but had no tears, but in his heart he was crying out,
"You can sleep well even when life and death are unpredictable."
Soon, we arrived at the next fork in the road.
He took out the ZIP lighter he used to light cigarettes and looked for any traces.
After finding it, turn off the lighter immediately and walk forward.
Song Xi actually fell asleep on his back, and seemed to be talking in her sleep: "Xiang Chu! I'll leave my life to you. It doesn't matter if I can't get out."
Xiang Chu was deeply moved and comforted her softly: "Sister Xi! You can get out. I still have a lighter."
Song Xi remained silent, as if he was between wakefulness and dreaming.
There was one fork in the road after another. Xiang Chu briefly turned on his lighter and found the direction to go based on the direction of the wind and the shoe prints on the ground.
I don’t know how long it took, but when the kerosene in the lighter ran out, a faint light appeared at the entrance of the cave ahead.
"Great!"
Xiang Chu felt relieved.
"Fortunately, Sister Xi is slim, so I'm not tired carrying her all the way."
He muttered to himself, carrying her on his back and moving forward following the faint light.
Before walking out of the cave, he called softly, "Sister Xi! We're almost out of the cave, wake up quickly, or you'll catch a cold."
Song Xi smiled and said, "Fortunately, Sister Xi is slim, so I'm not tired carrying her all the way."
"You're awake!"
Xiang Chu wanted to cry but had no tears.
The sky is full of stars, the wind is cold, and the mountain road is winding.
The two walked down the mountain hand in hand and ran back to the car.
Xiang Chu looked at his watch and smiled:
"Not bad! I'll take you home before ten o'clock."
Song Xi said tactfully: "No! I'll take you there first."
When Xiang Chu walked into the house, he found three people waiting for him in the living room, and Jiang Mei was crying.
Ning Caiwei hurried forward, shedding tears, and said, "Brother Chu! Your call sign called and said that Dad was accidentally caught by the Japanese military police while posting anti-Japanese slogans on the streets of Shanghai."
"what?!"
Xiang Chu was stunned.
He never expected that Ning Xiaoquan would be so enthusiastic and do what patriotic students would do.
Xiang Chu came back to his senses and hurriedly comforted him: "It's okay! I will rescue Dad right away."
After saying this, he ran up the stairs to the second floor. Seeing Ning Caiwei following him, he hurriedly stopped and supported her.
Entering the bedroom, Xiang Chu hurriedly sent a message to the Shanghai Japanese gendarmerie:
"Chun He! Mr. Ning Xiaoquan of Red Heart Trading Company has mental problems. He was instigated to post reactionary slogans on the street and was arrested. Please release him immediately. First generation!"
Half an hour later, the reply came: "First-class leader! Please send someone to the gate of the gendarmerie to pick me up early tomorrow morning. However, according to regulations, you need to take time to go to the gendarmerie to endorse me. Chunhe!"
Xiang Chu quickly replied: "I know the rules, thank you Chunhe!"
Xiang Chu turned to Yi Huaan and sent a message: "Mr. Yi! Go to the gate of the gendarmerie early tomorrow morning to pick up Ning Xiaoquan. Remember to give Akita Haruka some gifts."
Soon, Yi Huaan replied to the message: "Great! I'll be there tomorrow morning."
Xiang Chu called back: "Please send Ning Xiaoquan to the cargo ship bound for Hong Kong, and then fly back to Chongqing from Hong Kong."
Yi Huaan replied: "Do as you ask!"
In the blink of an eye, a crisis was resolved.
Ning Caiwei hugged Xiang Chu and shouted, "Daddy! You are so awesome."
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "Hurry up and tell mom and brother and sister-in-law that dad will be back to Chongqing soon."
At this time, Jiang Mei and two others had already arrived at the bedroom door.
Jiang Mei burst into laughter and said, "Your father is really unreliable. He even posted anti-Japanese slogans on the streets of Shanghai. Isn't that a clear sign that he will be caught by the devils?"
Xiang Chu said thoughtfully: "No! Dad is such a smart man, why would he post slogans on the street? Was he instructed by someone?"
Ning Buqu smiled and said, "Brother-in-law! Don't think about it. Dad coming back is better than anything else."
Ning Caiwei shook her head and said, "Dad was so timid before, but now he dares to be righteous and awe-inspiring. He must have been taught by someone and baptized by advanced ideas."
“It must be Yi Lao!”
Xiang Chu understood in his heart.
The next day, Xiang Chu and others went to work.
Ning Changde led hundreds of engineers and began to dig air-raid shelters.
Jiang Mei asked in confusion: "Changde! Why do you want to hollow out the mountain?"
Ning Changde smiled and said, "Sister-in-law! Xiang Chu said that in order to prevent the enemy's planes from bombing, we need to connect our three families together."
"This kid! His ideas are just different from others."
Jiang Mei smiled bitterly, paused, and said mysteriously,
"Oh, right! Your brother was caught by the Japanese military police while posting slogans on the streets of Shanghai."
"Ah?! My brother put up signs?"
Ning Changde was so shocked that he was stunned and couldn't recover for a long time.
Jiang Mei smiled and said, "Xiao Xiang was looking for someone and he was released this morning."
Ning Changde wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Sister-in-law! Please finish what you want to say at once. You scared me so much that I am sweating."
Jiang Mei said thoughtfully: "Changde! How come Xiao Xiang has such great abilities? He seems to be all-powerful."
Ning Changde also pretended to be mysterious and said: "I heard that Xiao Xiang has become a high-ranking official of the Japanese army and will be promoted to a general of the Japanese army soon."
"Ah?! The devil general?"
Jiang Mei was so shocked that she almost fainted.
