After the mother and son returned to their bedroom.
Lin Jingyu took action again, patrolling from the rooftop to the first floor.
Then they checked the area around the entrance and the backyard.
After finding no problems, they returned to the first floor.
Sitting on the sofa, she took out a book to pass the time.
Until the early hours of the morning, gunshots were faintly heard.
However, the gunshots were quite far from the area, so Lin Jingyu immediately stood guard at the door.
The gunfire then became increasingly frequent.
However, the sound still came from a distance, and thankfully it didn't affect this side.
The gunfire seemed to continue almost throughout the second half of the night.
It didn't stop until just before dawn.
Everyone remained vigilant until dawn, at which point they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Xiao Yu'er, come and make breakfast."
After waking up, Madam Zhang greeted everyone, "After breakfast, you should all get a good night's sleep."
"good."
Lin Jingyu naturally wouldn't refuse.
They were busy in the kitchen when Xu Anyang and the others returned with the three young men.
Apart from looking tired, everyone is safe and sound.
Their return brought a lively atmosphere.
An Yalin came out carrying her son who had just woken up.
No one mentioned what happened last night.
After having breakfast, Lin Jingyu and the others went back to their rooms to rest.
I slept until about three or four o'clock in the afternoon.
They discovered that the others had not returned.
It is clear that the 'sweeping operation' is not over yet.
Although everyone was worried about the situation outside, no one brought up the topic.
"Little Sister Jingyu~"
Wen Lechun and Zhang Hongyu ran in.
It startled everyone.
"What's wrong?"
When Madam Zhang saw her third son, she couldn't help but ask, "Yu'er, where's your father?"
"Dad's at the station."
Zhang Hongyu wiped away his sweat. "I'm starving. Is there any food left at home?"
"I'll go make you some noodles."
Just as Lin Jingyu was about to go to the kitchen, Wen Lechun called out to her, "Little sister Jingyu, don't rush. Grandpa Zhang asked us to come back and get something. He said you know what it is."
"Oh~"
Lin Jingyu paused for a moment, then immediately understood what her grandfather needed.
So he asked, "Is the enemy's firepower very strong? How can so many of you not be able to defeat them?"
"The enemy's firepower is indeed very strong."
Wen Lechun said with a wry smile, "Almost everyone has two or more guns."
At the beginning, no one knew that our people would suffer a great loss.
The police station doesn't have many of these items in stock.
The armed forces department emptied out all its inventory.
The fighting was intense last night, especially on the train station side, where dozens of lives were lost on both sides.
It was, to say the least, extremely tragic.
The expressions on the faces of everyone present changed.
"So, you're saying you don't have enough bullets?"
Lin Jingyu couldn't help but frown, "What if it's tonight..."
"Don't worry, the Japanese suffered nearly a hundred casualties last night, and we captured more than a dozen of them alive."
Zhang Hongyu stated bluntly, "Even if the Japanese had a large number of people, it would be impossible for them to bury three or four hundred people in the county town."
We'll search again tonight, and we should be almost done cleaning up.
"The Japanese soldiers this time are all elites."
Wen Lechun sneered, "They lost so many people in one go, I wonder if they will dare to come to Chunnan County to cause trouble again."
"Everyone be careful."
Lin Jingyu added, "Come with me, I know where Grandpa put it."
A large blank sheet of paper was carried down from the second-floor study.
Everyone looked at this thing and couldn't help but show their curiosity.
"Don't move."
Zhang Hongyu interrupted the three boys' eager thoughts, forbidding them from opening it to look.
Madam Zhang cooked a small bowl of noodles.
After the two finished eating, they carried the large cardboard box away.
"Sister, what is it?"
Lin Ruinan asked curiously, "How come I didn't know we had such a big cardboard box at home?"
"It seems to be something extraordinary."
Zhang Wenxi pondered, "Third Uncle values it highly, so it must be something good."
"You don't need to know, and it's not something for you to play with."
Lin Jingyu gave a perfunctory reply, then instructed them, "Keep your spirits up tonight, and don't let anything go wrong."
...
After dinner.
Lin Jingyu and the others continued to perform their respective duties.
Gunfire continued throughout the night.
However, the gunfire was not as intense as last night; there were occasional bursts of gunfire, but only a few scattered shots.
That night.
Lin Jingyu was also sitting on the sofa reading a book.
However, she remained focused on everything happening outside.
Until the early hours of the morning.
Suddenly, a series of hurried footsteps came from the backyard.
Lin Jingyu's expression changed slightly.
She sensed that an unfamiliar presence had crept in.
Luckily I stayed home, otherwise...
The thought that the Japanese devils had still managed to sneak into their home filled him with both hatred and anger.
A cold glint flashed in her eyes, and she immediately darted behind the door leading to the backyard.
As long as the other party doesn't come in, she won't take the initiative for the safety of her family.
If they dare to come in...
They stood quietly, motionless.
The faint sound of footsteps grew increasingly noticeable.
It came as expected.
Lin Jingyu hesitated, wondering whether to use a gun or just use her fists.
If a gun is fired, it will definitely wake up the elderly and children who are already fast asleep.
At least using fists and feet isn't that as amazing.
The decision was made in the blink of an eye.
