Crow of the Pretender

The weather was a bit gloomy, but it wasn't raining, and there was a slightly cooler wind blowing.The day after tomorrow will be the time for the special train "Sakura" to arrive at Suzhou Station.

Bo Ning walked alone on the bluestone road, there were not many pedestrians on the road, so he saw the bright mirror flashing out from the corner in front of him at a glance. She was carrying a few packs of Chinese medicine in her hand and went in the opposite direction of Bo Ning.

"Miss Ming Jing? Is she holding... traditional Chinese medicine? Could it be that she is sick?" Bo Ning felt strange. He didn't stop Ming Jing, but waited for her to go far away before walking towards the corner where Ming Jing appeared.

After the corner is a small stone road, with white walls and blue tiles on both sides.Bo Ning saw an old man sitting in front of another family, so he walked over and asked with a gentle smile: "Grandma, do you know if there is a medical center near here? I want to get some medicine for my father. "

The old lady looked at Bo Ning, and saw that he had a very handsome face, and he smiled cutely. The reason for asking for directions sounded very filial, and he didn't look like a bad person no matter what.

"Yes, yes. There is a medical clinic at the end of this small road."

The old lady spoke with a Suzhou dialect accent, the old man was very caring, and worried that Bo Ning would not understand, so she pointed her finger.

Bo Ning thanked the old man and walked along the stone road to the path.

The house with white walls and blue tiles, the stone road with a little moss, and a young man in black form an ink-like landscape painting.

At the end of the stone road is another east-west road, and Bo Ning saw the medical center.He first looked around, seeing that he was the only one on the road, so he crossed the path and walked into the medical hall.

There is a slightly bitter smell of traditional Chinese medicine in the medical hall, obviously this is a medical hall that favors traditional Chinese medicine.However, some Western medicine tools, such as stethoscopes, can still be seen here and there.

The owner of this medical clinic should not be over 40 years old, Bo Ning thought, because most of them at that age are old Chinese medicine practitioners, and rarely know how to combine Chinese and Western medicine.

There was no one in the hospital, so I don't know if it was in some room behind.After Bo Ning carefully looked at the front hall of the hospital, he finally cleared his throat, and asked loudly, "Excuse me, is anyone there?"

"Someone..."

On the second floor of the medical hall, a woman in a white coat appeared. She stood on the second floor and said something, then turned around and walked down the stairs.

"Sorry, I was upstairs and didn't hear it." The woman smiled apologetically, "Sir, please sit down."

This is a very gentle looking woman with a soft voice. She is different from Yu Manli and Ming Jing who are both Jiangnan women that Bo Ning has met.This one is more like a lady from a big family, with a lot of temperament.

"Sir, do you want to see a doctor?"

"Ah, no." Bo Ning shook his head, "I want to grab some medicine."

Su Yi was a little wary of the arrival of the young man in front of her.Because Uncle Li is currently on the second floor, and Ming Jing has just left.

"No problem, sir, do you have a prescription?"

"Of course..." Bo Ning put his hand into his bosom, although he lowered his head, he noticed the female doctor from the corner of his eye. She had a calm expression and crossed her hands on the table, "Oh, it's strange, where is my prescription?" ?”

Bo Ning fumbled for a long time, but did not find the prescription from his pocket.

"Did you forget to bring it? There is no way to get the medicine without a prescription, so you have to come again next time."

Of course, Bo Ning didn't have any prescription. He touched the pocket up and down on his body, with an annoyed and helpless expression: "I might have left it on the table."

"Is that so? The gentleman will come again next time? Or go back and get it now?" Su Yi became even more skeptical. She hoped that this unknown person would leave immediately.

Bo Ning didn't intend to leave, he said: "Actually, it doesn't matter. I have taken medicine for my father many times, and I remember the prescription. Every time I bring it, it is just in case. At worst, I will wait until I go back." Just be right once."

Seeing this, Su Yi naturally couldn't open her mouth to drive people away, so she asked Bo Ning to write about her going to grab the medicine.

Bai Ning silently wrote a prescription for treating rheumatism. This is the prescription he remembers most clearly. It was the medicinal materials and a few prescriptions he memorized for a long time when he was lurking in Nanjing and disguised as a pharmacy assistant. The simple prescription is now in use again.

Su Yi took a look at the prescription, and found that there was nothing wrong with it, it was just an ordinary prescription for treating rheumatism.

And this usage is obviously suitable for the elderly.While Su Yi weighed the medicine, she looked at Bo Ning unobtrusively.

The young man wore a leather jacket with a lambswool collar, a style very popular among young boys nowadays, and a checked beret.Very ordinary, the dress of a young man from a middle-class family.

Judging by his proficiency in writing the prescription just now, it seems that he does often catch this medicine, but Su Yi has opened a medical clinic here for several years, and has never seen this young man.

"Sir, your medicine pack is ready." Su Yi packed the medicine and handed it to Bo Ning, "Mr.'s accent doesn't sound like someone from here?"

Bo Ning took the medicine bag and nodded: "Yes. I am from Shanghai. I came to Suzhou to see my father. He just moved here to recuperate. The old man is old and doesn't want to make trouble in Shanghai. I don't Don't worry about him, just take the time to come and have a look."

"Mr. is really filial." Su Yi listened, and boasted more or less sincerely.

Bo Ning smiled shyly, as if he was embarrassed by Su Yi's compliment, and then asked: "By the way, what is your name? My name is Bai. I think this place is not far from my house. I think I will send people from my family here in the future." You grab the medicine here."

"Miangui, my surname is Su." After Su Yi finished speaking, she thought for a while and said, "However, sir, let the family members go to a big pharmacy to get medicine. I won't be open here for a few days."

Bo Ning was slightly surprised: "Why? I see, Dr. Su's medical center is pretty good? But, because the place is a bit remote? Or is it... a funding problem?"

Su Yi smiled gently, and looked at Bo Ning's concerned expression and shook her head: "Not really, I just want to live in another place, this medical clinic...maybe we will open another one when we go to another place."

"Oh, then I wish Dr. Su a new start in a new place." Bo Ning was very understanding and did not continue to ask, he took the medicine and said goodbye to Su Yi.

"Mr. Bai, go slowly."

Su Yi stood at the entrance of the medical hall, looking at the figure fading away on the bluestone road.Regardless of whether this young man came here with ulterior motives or not, Su Yi readily accepted his words of blessing.

In fact, she is about to go to Shanghai for latent work.And it is indeed a new place and a new beginning...

Bo Ning walked out of the bluestone path with the medicine in his hand and returned to the main road.In the medical clinic just now, that doctor Su seemed to be fine.But Bo Ning had an intuition that the medical center was not an ordinary one.

He opened the door very loudly at first, even if he was on the second floor, he would not fail to hear a little movement, but that Doctor Su waited for him to yell before coming out.

After that, he pretended not to bring the prescription, and most people would tell him to look for it carefully, and he didn't want to let a customer go easily.

But Dr. Su directly said that he would come back next time, or go back soon.There seemed to be a feeling that he wanted him to leave quickly.

Why rush to let yourself go?Bo Ning thought that it was most likely that there were other people in the hospital at that time.

However, Bo Ning didn't really care much about Dr. Su in the medical center and who was hiding there. He only affirmed that they were not Japanese strongholds, and he didn't care about anything else.

The reason why he went to test it was because he was worried about Ming Jing's safety, and because Bo Ning's paranoia had recurred. He will start to act tomorrow, and he wants to eliminate all hidden dangers that may cause chaos.

Bo Ning walked to a shop with the medicine in hand. The three people in the shop saw Bo Ning coming in, looked at each other, and tacitly sent away the customers who were choosing fabrics in the shop, and then Guo Qiyun closed the shop door.

"How is it? Have you got the explosives?" Bo Ning put the medicines on the table and asked Mingtai, "You will complete the action on the train the day after tomorrow by yourself. Have you memorized the action plan?"

"I got it..." Mingtai nodded, but his expression seemed a little strange, Bo Ning glanced at Mingtai and asked, "Why? What's the problem?"

Mingtai was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but think of the back figure he saw that was very similar to Brother Ah Cheng when he was picking up the goods.

"No, it's fine."

Bo Ning frowned: "Mingtai, the task of the day after tomorrow is very important, I don't want any mistakes. If you can't finish it, just tell me, and I will replace it immediately. But if you don't say it, once the task goes wrong, it's because You can't bear the consequences of your reasons, understand?"

"Yes! Brother!" Mingtai's expression turned serious, he was a little ashamed, he shouldn't be distracted by some ambiguous matters.

Bo Ning squinted his eyes, stared deeply at Mingtai, and took a long time to look away: "I will be the section chief from now on. After the task is over, if you don't mind, you can talk to me if you have any questions."

Mingtai felt warm in his heart and nodded.

"Eh? Section Chief, this medicine?" At this time, Guo Qiyun wanted to ease the atmosphere, so he raised the medicine on the table and asked.

Bo Ning glanced at it nonchalantly, and said, "Oh, it's for Station Master Bai."

Guo Qiyun?

Yu Manli/Mingtai?

Bai Chenglin?

The next day, the sun was shining brightly, a rare sunny day.

The "Sakura" special train entered Suzhou Station at [-]:[-] a.m. and stopped for an hour to rest, not only to pick up a few more passengers at Suzhou Station, but also to allow the high-ranking officials on the train to have a little exercise.

Cheng Jinyun was wearing a delicate dress and walking on the platform with a small handbag in her hand. She walked to a carriage and was about to pedal.

"Wait, please show your ID." The military police in front of the car stopped her, Cheng Jinyun was not surprised, she naturally took out the ID from her handbag and handed it to the military police.

The gendarme opened the ID, and a photo of Cheng Jinyun was pasted on it. The name column said Keiko Kiyoshima, a reporter from the Suzhou Branch of the Tokyo Daily News.

"Sorry, Miss Qingdao, please!" The gendarme returned the ID to Cheng Jinyun, bowed slightly, and let the door open.

"It's ok……"

The author has something to say:

Cheng Jinyun is online, um, bombing/train action ing...

Bai? Only deserves to have a name but no camera? Cheng Lin: I...have rheumatism?

Park Lane: I said you have it, and you have it.
