Chapter 679 Phoenix Bathed in Blood, Part 8



In the following time, Lin Xue focused on tracking the beggars outside the hospital.

This investigation actually led her to discover something: the beggars at the door actually belonged to different factions.

There were Red Party members, White Party members, and even Japanese spies.

However, she did not intend to get involved with any party. Her mission was to take Han Xue away from Shanghai and send her to the Red Party's base.

"My injuries are almost healed. When are we leaving?"

Perhaps because of the large amount of medication used, Han Xue's injuries recovered very quickly.

By the third day, all her wounds had scabbed over, but she would still tear open one or two wounds when she moved around a lot, but the rest were fine.

"I'm already looking for a way out. All the roads leading out of Hai's territory are blocked by the Japanese, so it's going to be a bit difficult for us to leave!"

"However, I've come up with a perfect solution: let's stay one more day and leave tomorrow night!"

The Japanese blockade was more severe than Lin Xue had imagined, so he decided to delay for another day and set off tomorrow night.

"I know it's tough on you. I know the situation outside is serious, but we can't just stay here forever!"

"If someone sees you going in and out like this, we'll be trapped like turtles in a jar!"

After three days of good food and drink to nourish her body, Han Xue felt that she could run 20 kilometers without feeling weak.

It's best to leave as soon as possible!

After resting at the hospital for another day, the two secretly slipped out of the hospital together late at night.

After leaving the hospital, Lin Xue hailed two rickshaws, and the two of them got in and left the hospital area one after the other.

She had already prepared good citizen certificates and forged identity documents for the two of them.

I was questioned several times along the way before finally arriving at the train station.

Because the two of them carried very little luggage, only a small backpack, they did not arouse the suspicion of the Japanese soldiers.

Lin Xue then obtained two more train tickets through a special method, and the two boarded a train bound for Chongqing.

"Little brother, are we not going to take any of our things?"

The two pretended to be siblings and sat on a train bound for Chongqing.

Han Xue was still feeling sorry for the medicines they had collected, knowing that Phoenix had spent a lot of money to get them.

These days, people are even throwing away their medicine in order to take the train.

"I've already hidden the things on the train, so don't worry, I'll retrieve them before I get off!"

In fact, Lin Xue had stored all those things in her spatial storage, but she couldn't tell the other party that.

Let's just assume she already tampered with things on the train, and not make Han Xue worry about it.

"Ticket inspection! Everyone, please take out your good citizen certificate and train ticket. Make sure you keep these two documents safe. If you lose them, you will be treated as a fare evader!"

A group of Japanese soldiers in civilian clothes were checking tickets one by one on the train for the third time.

Even those who try to evade fares will eventually be forced to the last carriage.

Unless they jump off the train and escape, they will be captured by these Japanese devils and sent to labor camps.

"Where are your tickets?"

"Why are you taking so long? Let me, your sir, search it!"

Not far from Lin Xue and her group sat a father and daughter. One of the girls was a little slow in taking out her ticket, and the men began to grope her.

"Please, don't make a move! The tickets are all with me!"

The elderly father, seeing his daughter being insulted and not daring to resist, quickly handed over the ticket.

"Hmph, why didn't you say so sooner when you were with me?"

"Next time, please be quicker with your ticket purchase. You're really delaying my business!"

Having gained a little advantage, those people didn't dare to go too far. After checking and confirming that everything was correct, they continued to the next row.

"What a beast!"

Han Xue clenched her fists, wishing she could go up and fight those people.

"That clown won't last much longer!"

"Stay calm. Before we leave the train, I'll find a way to cripple these guys' hands!"

Lin Xue wanted to cripple more than just their hands. Since they were wasting food while alive, she thought it better to send them to hell to atone for their sins.

"Alright, but don't take any risks. It's not worth risking yourself for a few small fry!"

Although Han Xue was angry, she had not lost her composure.

She took a deep breath to calm herself, and the ticket inspectors soon arrived at their location.

Lin Xue calmly handed over the two tickets and the certificate of good citizenship. One of them was an old woman whose face had been deliberately made ugly by Lin Xue, and the other was a brat who hadn't even grown his hair yet. They didn't attract the attention of the two of them.

Those who know the two are siblings, but those who don't might mistake them for mother and son.

After those bastards left, a few elderly men and women, carrying their own baskets, went along the train carriages selling their local specialties.

There were freshly made pancakes, steamed buns, and vendors selling hot water.

People who sell things on trains are probably connected to the Japanese.

They have some connections, and as long as they don't run into the patrol teams, no one dares to mess with them.

"Pancakes, delicious pancakes! Young man, would you like to buy some and try them?"

An elderly woman carrying a basket approached Lin Xue and asked the two of them questions.

Do you have scallions in your pancakes?

"I won't buy it if it doesn't have scallions!"

Lin Xue glanced at the contents of the basket; the pancakes were all high-quality, each one golden and crispy.

"Yes, young man, you're from Shandong, right? Only people from that region like to eat scallion pancakes!"

The old woman smiled and agreed, then took a few steps back, took two scallions from another old man, and went to Lin Xue and the other woman's side.

"My hometown is in Shandong. Later, I came to Haishi with my parents and have been doing business in Haishi ever since!"

"This is my first time going to another city with my older sister to pick up goods. Sigh, business is getting harder and harder these days!"

Lin Xue complained to the old lady as she took the pancakes out of the basket.

"Who says it isn't true? It's really too hard to make a living these days!"

"These pancakes and scallions will only cost you thirty yuan in legal tender!"

Seeing that Lin Xue had taken two rolls of pancakes, the old woman handed over the scallions she was holding and then told her the price.

"Alright, it's been so many years since I've had this stuff, I've been really craving it!"

Lin Xue muttered to herself, but reached into her pocket and pulled out a few Chinese banknotes, taking out 30 yuan and handing it to the other person.

"Alright, I'll be on this train for the next few days. If you finish eating, come back and buy some more from me!"

The old lady's face lit up with an even brighter smile as she sold her goods and continued walking forward with her basket.

Lin Xue handed a rolled-up pancake to Han Xue, and then handed her a scallion.

Eat as much as you can, and save the leftovers for later use as provisions!

He lowered his voice and leaned close to Han Xue's ear, whispering his instructions.

"clear!"

Han Xue pulled one pancake from the pancake, then put away the scallions and the rest of the pancake.
