Traveling through the Republic of China to become a special agent, the system is very easy for me

Yuan Ye closed the bedroom door, returned to the living room, and prepared to knock on the door of another bedroom, which was the room where his mother and sister lived.

As soon as I walked to the door, it opened and Yuan Wan came out, looking like she was worried.

"Brother, you are back."

In fact, she didn't fall asleep either. She was waiting for Yuan Ye to come home and tell him her decision. She didn't know whether her brother would disagree like her parents and whether he would be angry. She was very conflicted, but she had to tell him no matter what.

She heard some noise in the living room and knew her brother was back. She hesitated for a moment, should she tell him now or wait until tomorrow morning?

She finally decided to tell her brother now so that she could know his attitude earlier and maybe he would support her.

She respected her brother very much. When her brother decided to join the army, the whole family opposed it, but she was the only one who stood firmly on her brother's side.

"You haven't slept yet."

Yuan Ye smiled.

"I just heard from my father that you don't want to go to Hong Kong anymore. What's going on?"

"I'm going to the New Fourth Army base in northern Jiangsu to fight the Japanese invaders. Gu Yu will also be going, along with a few of her classmates. We've already agreed that we'll leave in a few days, and we'll set off as soon as we get the notice.

Brother, I think you will support me!"

After Yuan Wan finished speaking, she looked at Yuan Ye expectantly, feeling uneasy.

Yuan Ye was surprised. He didn't expect that Yuan Wan was going to the New Fourth Army base in northern Jiangsu.

He originally thought that Yuan Wan didn't go to Hong Kong because she was reluctant to leave her original school and classmates. It seems that he was overthinking it.

He knew that his sister's ideas were progressive and she was as patriotic as many other students, but she was still too young. Could it be that she was just acting on impulse?

Wasn’t that what happened to me a year ago?

When you actually go to the battlefield, you will find that ideals and reality are not the same, and war is cruel.

Although he experienced the cruelty of the battlefield, it did not change his original intention to serve his country.

But Yuan Wan is only seventeen years old and still a girl. She has never suffered any hardship. She knows nothing about the reality she will encounter in the future. Can she withstand the impact of the huge gap between ideals and reality like herself?

What should she do then?

This is what Yuan Ye is deeply worried about.

Yuan Ye put away the smile on his face and said:

"Sister Wan, your desire to serve the country is commendable, and it's not that I don't support you.

But you are still too young and you don’t expect that the difficulties in the future will be beyond your imagination.

You should think about it carefully. I hope this is not just a momentary impulse on your part.

I think you should finish your studies first, and when you grow up, I will support you in whatever you do."

Yuan Wan was a little disappointed, but she was not particularly surprised by Yuan Ye's reaction. After all, her brother was no longer the passionate young man he was more than a year ago.

She thought for a moment and said firmly:

"I have thought it through. With the Japanese invasion rampant, there is no room for a quiet desk in such a vast country as China. It is time for us to step forward and serve our country.

More than a year ago, when the Japanese invaded Shanghai, didn't you resolutely join the army to fight against the Japanese?

At that time, everyone in the family was against it, and I was the only one who supported you. Why don’t you support me now in the same situation?

Your decision at that time may have been made on impulse, because you have now withdrawn from the anti-Japanese team and are no longer a passionate young man. You work as a small clerk in the government to make a living. You have your ideas and I respect your choice.

But I was definitely not acting on impulse. The New Fourth Army is an anti-Japanese force that needs knowledgeable and cultured young people like us to join. That is where we can put our talents to use.

I heard from others that the base was very difficult due to the blockade by the Japanese invaders. I have been mentally prepared and will never regret it.

I hope my brother will respect my choice, just like I respect yours."

Yuan Wan no longer had any hope that Yuan Ye would support her, as long as he didn't oppose or obstruct her.

Of course if Yuan Ye objected, she would ignore his objection and her parents' objection and continue with her choice.

She thought that Gu Yu would definitely encounter the same situation as her, but they had already agreed that they would never back down, no matter who objected.

Yuan Wan's powerful words made Yuan Ye stunned. Is this still the same sister as before?

It seems that he underestimated her.

There was no way to refute her words. Of course Yuan Ye didn't want to refute it either. He knew that even if he objected, it would be of no use.

As long as she is mentally prepared, there is nothing wrong in choosing this path. Didn’t she also choose this path of serving the country more than a year ago?

He was a little sad about Yuan Wan's misunderstanding of him. He was still the passionate young man he used to be, and his original intention had not changed, but he could not explain to Yuan Wan, let alone tell her his identity as a hidden agent.

He sighed and said:

"Okay, I can't convince you. I respect your choice. I will help you convince your parents. Of course, I won't tell them that you are going to northern Jiangsu to avoid worrying them. Just say that you want to stay in Shanghai to study."

When Yuan Wan heard this, she jumped up happily, hugged Yuan Ye, and said excitedly:

"Thank you so much, brother. I knew you would help me. You are such a good brother to me!"

Yuan Ye smiled and said:

"You didn't have this attitude just now, your expression changed so quickly!

I think if you don't agree, I doubt whether you will still recognize me as your brother."

Yuan Wan looked indifferent, let go of Yuan Ye, and said with a smile:

"Your suspicion is correct. Fortunately, you knew what was best for you and agreed. Otherwise, you would be in trouble."

Yuan Ye was a little amused and said:

"Okay, no more jokes. After mom and dad leave, you'll be staying with me for the time being."

Yuan Wan shook her head and said:

"Gu Yu asked me to stay at her house and wait for notification. Once the notification comes, I will immediately meet up with the others and set off. It's not convenient to stay here."

Yuan Ye knew that this must have been arranged by the Red Party's underground organization, and that someone was specially assigned to take them away from Shanghai and go to the base in northern Jiangsu.

An idea suddenly came to Yuan Ye's mind.
