Rain of Favor of the Dark Sky

Mary sat in a dilapidated alley with a dazed face. She was wearing a thin summer dress in late autumn and shivering in the cold wind. She didn't understand why she was in this place.

With a confused mind, she tried hard to recall what happened before, but her muddy brain could only vaguely recall the memory fragment of handing over the translated documents to Wu in Yushou's office, and what happened after that I can't remember, and naturally I don't know how I got here.

A low groaning sound came to her ears suddenly, and Mary came back to her senses, and hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound, and found that Takeshi Yamamoto, who was still full of energy talking and laughing with her before, had collapsed not far away On the ground, it looks bad.

"Awu! What's the matter with you?" Mary came to him eagerly and shouted, but Takeshi Yamamoto remained in a coma and did not respond to her call at all.

"What's going on here?" Mary said very helplessly, reaching out to search around him, and finally found Yushou's special communicator, but no matter how she pressed the switch, she couldn't get in touch with other people.

Anxious Mary immediately stood up and ran out of the alley to find help, but when she saw the old buildings outside the alley, street signs full of German, and passers-by wearing clothes from the 40s and 21s, she immediately I was completely stunned, this is not Italy, not even the [-]st century, where did she and A Wu come to?

When Mary was still at a loss, someone said beside her in Chinese: "Are you Chinese?!"

Mary, who had been listening to Japanese or Italian at Vengley's headquarters, suddenly felt familiar when she heard the familiar Chinese. She turned her head to look at the person who came, and found that it was a gentle-looking young man, staring into Mary's dark eyes. Eyes full of anticipation.

"Yes, I am Chinese." Mary also replied in Chinese, and the other party immediately said with great joy: "I knew you were Chinese. It is so rare to meet compatriots in this foreign country. I am a doctor of the University of Berlin. Lin Xiuyan, a student in the department, how about you?"

"My name is Mary." After reporting her name, she said eagerly: "Brother Xiuyan, can you help me? My friend is injured and needs urgent treatment. Can you please help me take him to the hospital? I will definitely do it afterwards. Thank you very much."

After saying this, Mary subconsciously touched the wedding ring on her ring finger, feeling a little pain in her heart. She never wears jewelry, only this significant ring never leaves her body, but now she doesn't care about other things in order to save people , the ring must be sold to make up for medical expenses and rewards.

"What are you talking about? We are all Chinese. We should help each other in this foreign country. How can we talk about remuneration?" Lin Xiuyan said a little unhappy, and then asked: "Your injured friend is here Where? I'll go and have a look! After all, I'm also a medical student, so I should be able to help."

Mary hurriedly led him into the alley, and Lin Xiuyan crouched next to the unconscious Takeshi Yamamoto before examining him carefully, "It looks like there is no trauma on the surface, but his forehead is very hot. He must have a high fever. Go to the hospital for an injection and you'll be fine." , bring your ID and follow me!"

"Documents?"

"Although the main target of those SS soldiers is the Jews, they still often make trouble for us Chinese. They randomly check our documents. If we don't have the documents, we may be arrested. It will be difficult to figure out when the time comes."

"What should I do? Neither I nor A Wu have any documents!" Mary said eagerly, then remembered to ask: "You mean the SS, what year is it now?"

Lin Xiuyan was very strange to her question, but still replied: "It's [-] years now, it's already mid-October, why do you still wear so little?"

He said that he took off his coat and put it on Mary in a very gentlemanly manner. Mary, who had been shivering from the cold, hurriedly thanked him, and then tried to recall his historical knowledge, "In 1940... Germany, Japan, and Italy just recently Form an alliance!"

"Yeah, these three countries have become allies, and the pattern of the world has become complicated again. Huh, those damn Japanese have become more and more crazy after becoming allies with Germany and Italy. I dream of being beaten by Japanese soldiers." Trampling on my homeland, I can't wait to go back to China to fight against the Japanese, use my medical skills to help all the compatriots who are fighting, and drive those Japanese devils out of China with everyone!"

When Lin Xiuyan mentioned that Japan became emotional immediately, he almost gritted his teeth and said these words, but Mary's heart suddenly thumped, and she looked worriedly at Takeshi Yamamoto who was still in a coma. If Lin Xiuyan knew that Wu was from Japan People will definitely not save him.

As a Chinese who received patriotic education since she was a child, Mary naturally hated Japan, which invaded the motherland during this period, but Wu is a good person, and she is also her friend, so she must not ignore it.

Fortunately, Lin Xiuyan did not realize that the tall man lying on the ground was Japanese. He stretched out his hand to help Takeshi Yamamoto who was in a coma, and said with concern: "You can't go to the hospital without a certificate. Come back to the school dormitory with me." , There are a few Chinese students there, everyone can take care of each other, as for his high fever, I still have some antipyretics, I should be fine after taking it.”

"Thank you very much then."

"Don't be polite to me. We are all Chinese. We must help each other in this difficult time. Only in this way can we drive the Japanese devils out of our country."

Lin Xiuyan, who looked very elegant but actually a passionate young man, carried Takeshi Yamamoto on his back and walked towards the school. Mary hurriedly followed, feeling very grateful to have met this enthusiastic compatriot.

Back in the male dormitory of the University of Berlin, Lin Xiuyan put her on the bed and began to look for antipyretics. After hearing the news, several Chinese students who came here welcomed Mary’s arrival. They not only gave her food, but also saw her dressed Shao also went to the girls' dormitory to help her borrow clothes, which warmed Mary's heart. Compared with the indifference of modern society, she really felt the warmth of a family here.

"Everyone is so enthusiastic."

"The main reason for my enthusiasm for you is because you are a lovely girl. There are not many Chinese in Berlin, and girls as eye-catching as you are even rarer, so all of them are excited." Lin Xiuyan of the medicine told the truth, which immediately caused condemnation from other people. The lively and relaxed atmosphere made Mary relax, and the worries and anxiety in her heart were also relieved.

Mary, who took the antipyretics, fed the medicine to Takeshi Yamamoto, who was in a coma, and sat by the bed to take care of him. At this moment, a German girl came in with her clothes in her arms, and said very friendly to Mary, "My name is Ella, yes Lin's classmate, you are Mary! Nice to meet you."

Mary is quite gifted in languages. Because she has been learning German recently, she barely understood what she said. She stood up and said politely in German: "Hello, Ella, I'm glad to meet you too."

Ella handed her the clothes in her hand and said kindly: "It's inconvenient to wear boys' clothes. These are my clothes. Please wear them if you don't mind."

"Thank you." Mary took the clothes gratefully, feeling very lucky to have met so many good people.

She felt warm in Ella's clothes, and Ella smiled and said, "Mary, go to sleep in my dormitory tonight."

"Sorry, I have to take care of a sick friend, so I can't leave." Mary refused apologetically. She really didn't dare to leave. It would be bad if Wu was found out as a Japanese, and she had to be by her side.

"This handsome man is your lover." Irene blinked at her, and Mary hurriedly explained: "No, Wu is my friend."

"We'll become lovers in the future."

"It's not like that, please don't make fun of me."

"The Chinese are very shy in this regard!

Ella said with a smile, this made Mary very speechless, it should be said that foreigners are very open in this regard!

When it was completely dark, it was already raining outside. Ella, who did not give up at all, was still persuading Mary to go to the girls' dormitory for the night, "Are you really going to live here tonight? It's a boys' dormitory after all! Come back with me." , your friend and others will take care of it."

"No, I really don't feel at ease if I don't stay here." Mary still refused, and she was not at ease leaving A Wu here alone anyway.

"Poor little Mary, I don't feel at ease if you stay here. It's like lambs living among wolves. I'm afraid you will be swallowed up tomorrow."

Lin Xiuyan, who was reading next to him, rubbed his aching temple and said, "The people in this dormitory have already borrowed in other dormitories, and I will go to sleep next door in a while, so you can rest assured, Ella."

"Be sure to lock the door tonight, little Mary."

"I will." Mary said seriously, and Ella couldn't help hugging her and said, "So cute, are all Chinese girls this cute?"

Lin Xiuyan looked at the distressed Mary and said to rescue her, "Ella, aren't you going to immigrate to the United States soon? Why are you still hanging out at school if you don't go home and pack your things?"

"This is my last day at school, and I'll never see you all again."

Ella looked at Lin Xiuyan sadly, while Mary said in surprise, "Are you going to immigrate?"

"I don't want to leave either, but I'm a Jew. Germany's Jewish policy is getting stricter and stricter. I really don't dare to stay here anymore. My neighbor was arrested by the secret police on Crystal Night and never came back. I I'm really afraid that one day I will be captured by those horrible people."

Ella's face was full of fear and anxiety, Mary hugged her and comforted her: "It's okay, as long as you immigrate to the United States, you will be completely safe."

"Actually, I am very lucky. My family has relatives in the United States. Immigration is easy, but many compatriots cannot escape this country as easily as I do."

Ella had a sad expression on her face, and Mary couldn't help but feel sad. This dark period of Nazi rule is simply a history of blood and tears for all Jews!

Lin Xiuyan put down the book and said with a sigh: "It doesn't matter if you are an immigrant, the sooner you leave the country that divides people into different categories and cruelly persecutes the Jews, the better! Huh! Both Germany and Japan are crazy, barbaric and sinful countries." !"

When it comes to Japan, refined youths once again enter the patriotic and passionate youth mode, and their faces are full of disgust.

Mary fully understands his feelings, and feels guilty for hiding from him. She hardly dares to face him. She is tidying up the corners of Takeshi Yamamoto's clothes as if to cover up, when a black wallet suddenly falls out of his pocket and spreads out on the ground. , The documents belonging to Takeshi Yamamoto in the wallet were also exposed to the light immediately.

Seeing the Japanese language on the certificate, Lin Xiuyan's expression changed, and he rushed to the bed and said viciously, "He's Japanese!"

"I'm sorry, I didn't hide it on purpose." Mary hurriedly apologized, feeling very uneasy.

"Take this Japanese out!" Lin Xiuyan yelled out of composure, and he was very annoyed that he saved the most hated Japanese in his life.

"Awu is still running a fever! Please, at least let Awu stay here for one night, and I will take Awu away tomorrow when the rain stops." Mary begged, really about to cry, even if Awu is Pengo Lie's rain guard, she must not Get in the rain when you have a fever!

"What does it matter to me that he has a fever? Do you know how those Japanese killed us Chinese? Do you know how many Chinese people were killed in the Nanjing Massacre, and how miserable they were? This Japanese is a friend, a traitor! A traitor! Take him and get out of here! Otherwise, I will be impolite!"

Lin Xiuyan, who was about to be driven into a frenzy by the Japanese and the pro-Japanese traitor, screamed angrily, regretting helping these two people very much.

"I also hate Japan, which invaded China. I also wish that the Japanese who killed the Chinese would die, but Wu is innocent, he is not a bad person, you can't generalize!"

"I only know that the Japanese invaded China, and this man is also a Japanese, that's enough!"

Lin Xiuyan reached out and grabbed Takeshi Yamamoto by the collar to throw him out, but Mary stopped him immediately and begged, "Please don't do this, he's still sick."

"I don't care! This Japanese must get out!" Lin Xiuyan yelled uncompromisingly, determined to drive him out!

Ella next to him couldn't stand it anymore, broke his hand and shouted: "Enough is enough, I know your relatives were killed by the Japanese, and I hate them very much, but Mary is right, you can't generalize! No matter what There are good guys and bad guys in every race, what is the difference between your behavior and those SS soldiers you hate the most?"

Speechless Lin Xiuyan slammed the door and left. Mary breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Ella and said thanks, "Thank you, if you hadn't helped me to speak, Awu and I would have been kicked out."

"Love...Even the hatred of the country and the family can't separate two people who love each other..." Ella was full of literary emotion, and Mary was speechless again, saying that she was not a lover. Why did she still think so?

"Let me stay with you tonight, lest Lin come to chase you away on a whim in the middle of the night." Ella said kindly, and Mary asked worriedly: "Isn't Ella immigrating soon? Is it okay if you don't go home?" ?”

"It's okay to stay here for one night."

"Thank you very much." Mary thanked gratefully. She was in the boys' dormitory and might be kicked out at any time. She was actually very uneasy in her heart, and she felt a lot easier with Ella accompanying her.

A few hours later, the rain outside stopped, and a ray of moonlight poured into the room from the deep night sky. Ella had already fallen asleep, but Mary, who was sitting by the bed, was not sleepy at all. Living in this crazy and chaotic era and country , Her heart was full of uneasiness, without the slightest sense of security.

Looking down at Takeshi Yamamoto who was still in a coma, she held his hand as if grabbing a life-saving straw. Mary said in a very low voice: "Awu, I'm so scared now, do you know? We arrived in Germany in [-], I don’t know if we can go back. Although a Chinese student named Lin Xiuyan helped us, he hates the Japanese very much. We will be kicked out tomorrow. You must wake up as soon as possible, otherwise I really don’t know what to do OK?"

She whispered to Takeshi Yamamoto who was in a coma, and the night passed peacefully like this.

In the early morning of the next day, Mary, who was lying on the bedside for a nap, was awakened by the sound of students washing up outside the door. Sitting upright, she reached out to touch Takeshi Yamamoto's forehead, and felt relieved when she found that the temperature had basically returned to normal.

Ella sat up from the bed in a daze, rubbed her sleepy eyes and said, "Have you been sitting there all night? How tired!"

"It's okay, I'm not tired, and I took a nap." Mary smiled relaxedly, "Awu's fever has subsided, and he should be able to wake up soon."

"That's the best. You're hungry. I'll go to the cafeteria and bring you something to eat."

Aila, who got off the bed with her shoes on, was about to go out, when there was a rush of footsteps in the corridor, the door was suddenly knocked hard, and Lin Xiuyan's eager voice came from outside the door, "It's not good! Ayla Pull! The SS is coming to the school!"

The blood on Ella's face faded immediately, and she opened the door in a panic, only to see Lin Xiuyan who rushed to report and said anxiously: "The SS has come to the school! I heard that all teachers and students of Jewish descent will be taken away. , get out of here with me!"

An anxious Lin Xiuyan dragged Ella out of the dormitory. Mary felt worried as she watched the two leave, and secretly prayed that Ella could escape the purge of the SS.

A few minutes later, there was a sudden commotion outside the door, with the sound of chaotic footsteps and knocking on the door. Mary was terrified, subconsciously grasped Takeshi Yamamoto's hand and said tremblingly, "Awu...wake up...it's scary..."

The door was suddenly kicked open, and two SS soldiers in black uniforms rushed in and searched everywhere. After making sure that no one was hiding in the closet or under the bed, they looked at Mary and ordered, "Gather at the playground immediately!"

One of them was about to grab Takeshi Yamamoto, but Mary hurriedly stopped him: "Don't do this! He's still in a coma!"

Mary was roughly pushed to the ground. Although her elbow hurt when she hit the ground, she completely ignored her fear. She got up and continued to stop these Nazi atrocities. However, with her weak strength, she couldn't stop those two at all.
