[British and American Drama] Mental Correction

[Chapter 5]

The winter of [-] was extremely long. Even after many years, the other two, headed by Ladis Grutas, could not forget the cold and fear that penetrated into the bone marrow.

And this winter also left a lot of sequelae. The last survivors are Ladis Grutas, Geinz, and Paul. It's nauseating to see, and their reluctance to hug any child - especially a girl - even after more than a decade.

This feeling is too indescribable.

Mischa Lecter is like an evil child in a horror story, possessed by the devil. She has never gone downstairs. Every day, Geinz brings the food to the middle of the stairs, and Hannibal takes it away. .She only sleeps during the day, and at night she keeps her eyes open and holds a gun to guard against them. Once she finds that someone wants to resist/sneak attack or escape, she will use the weird marksmanship that comes from nowhere to demonstrate and warn.

In January 1945, just as they ate the legs of their comrade-in-arms Dortlich, Soviet bombers dropped shells from the sky, blowing up half of the house.This feeling is both panic and inexplicable joy.Grutas and the others didn't even look back at the dilapidated house and whether the people inside survived.

This kind of days of being locked up in a cramped corner almost made him lose his blood.Because Grutas clearly realized that no matter how ruthless he was, at least he resisted eating his companion's corpse!Even though he had peeked at Misha's body, he had made an excuse first... For example, the girl is not in good health, she has lung disease, if there is no food, not only her, but her brother will also die.

And if she was willing to sacrifice herself, Grutas would guarantee that Hannibal would survive.

But no chance, they became her dogs, her servants.Using the knife she threw from the attic, to cut open the body of her companion... This is simply a nightmare!

The four of them fled all the way, but they happened to encounter a confrontation between the Soviet and German troops.Grutas and others had to join the German army again, but this time it was no longer Hitler's SS.And this is the greatest luck. On May 1945, 1946, Germany announced its unconditional surrender. On that day, all SS troops were unconditionally disbanded/disintegrated. In [-], they were all sentenced by the Nuremberg Nationality Military Tribunal as a criminal organization. All SS members were therefore sent to the military. court……

Of course, this is the story of Grutas and the others.Let us continue to turn our attention to January 1945.

At the beginning of this year, the Soviet Union finally joined forces with Poland, the Czech Republic, France and other countries in an extremely powerful way, possessing the strongest force/weapons since World War II, and launched a new round of concentrated attacks on Germany!Therefore, on this day at the end of January 1945, Hannibal and Claire witnessed the Soviet bombers drop shells from the sky and blow up half of the house where they lived.

In the chaos, all Hannibal could do was to hug Claire tightly, waiting for the bomber to move the battlefield, so as not to bring innocent people like them into it.

And then, he swayed his small body, staggered out of the room with Claire on his back.He didn't even know how long and where he had gone. When Hannibal woke up, Claire was no longer by his side.

According to the nun, they were rescued by Soviet soldiers patrolling the battlefield, while Claire had to be transferred to the hospital because Misha's body was too weak and her lung disease was too severe.

As soon as Claire opened her eyes, she saw Hannibal's dirty little face and unkempt hair, with slightly sunken cheeks.Only the pair of ice blue ones were always bright. After noticing that Claire opened her eyes, her long eyelashes trembled, and then quickly rushed out of the ward: "Doctor! Doctor! Misha is awake!"

In a daze, Claire was surrounded by several nurses and doctors for examination.Feel the pain in the brain.Out of the corner of her eye she noticed that Hannibal had red chilblained hands, something she hadn't seen before.

"your hands?The unfinished words could not be uttered due to the hoarseness and pain in his throat, but Hannibal had already silently retracted his hands into his sleeves and hid them behind his back: "Misha finally woke up~" The boy awkwardly changed the subject, but his eyes could not help Worried, he slipped to Claire.

Claire said nothing.

The experience of this winter seemed to revive something in her body and make something die.So much so that even though Claire had the intention of caring about Hannibal, she felt extremely tired inside.

And as sensitive as Hannibal, he will not be indifferent.

The two brothers and sisters spent 1945 in such an inexplicably stiff and awkward atmosphere.It was a chaotic year, the war ended in the city, they left Lithuania and returned to the Soviet Union, where they owned a property belonging to the Lecter couple.It is built near the Volga River like a castle. After the river flows gently, this land becomes more precious and beautiful.

But the reality is that neither 8-year-old Claire nor 11-year-old Hannibal can guard such a place.They don't even have the right to live here justifiably!Because the property owner died after the war without a will, and the two children were both minors. In addition, the country needed such land resources. This property was undoubtedly expropriated by the country and established as a shelter for those who lost their loved ones in the war. Children's welfare home.

And Claire and Hannibal were able to live in it.Even in the form of being given alms.Because this orphanage only accepts boys, they will be assigned some "jobs" during the day to make them pay their own labor in exchange for food, and there are no girls.Claire's presence is even more noticeable.

In particular, she has a lung and respiratory system disease. All microorganisms such as viruses and bacteria can cause infection, and even smoking and dust can make her weak.This is Misha's ailment from birth.

She gets sick more easily than others.

For this reason, Hannibal petitioned to be relieved of Misha's "job," which was matched by his willingness to work two "jobs."Claire watched silently, because the living environment in the winter of 94 was too harsh, which caused Misha's lung disease to break out rapidly afterwards, and her body was obviously weak.This kind of hardware damage made Claire inevitably feel powerless even if she was strong-willed every day.And this half-awake, half-trance state also made her seem to be divorced from reality, and looked at Hannibal from the perspective of a third party.

He is not cherishing Claire, his precious is always his fellow sister Misha.

Yet Claire was never Misha.She knows this better than anyone.

In such a state of mind, Claire stopped talking to Hannibal.

To be precise, she wasn't communicating with anyone.Only one thing remained to occupy all of Claire's thoughts: why didn't she wake up from this dream?What is the meaning of this dream?

Protect Hannibal?She did it.Even though the tactics were extreme, the young man once feared her and stayed away from her.Kill the bad guys?She did it too, and the last three should not live long. As far as Claire knew, none of the SS soldiers had any good results.

In her silence, one year, another year passed quickly, and three years passed in a blink of an eye.

"Hannibal! What are you doing!!" the so-called squad leader Ivan roared again!He clearly disliked Hannibal in particular.No matter what this young man does, he can always step on his anger point, look, now he is once again caught in anger——

"I told you to weed and you see what you did! Weed! Weed, understand! But you actually shaved off the bitter chrysanthemum that I planted in the left and right small gardens!! Do you know how long it took me to take care of it! Gone!!!! Gone!!!”

Ivan's eyes were red. If Principal Balshak hadn't held him in his arms, he might have rushed forward impulsively holding his sickle!

But the person who made him so angry was a handsome young man with long black hair and blue eyes.When he smiled, there was this fine scar on his face, which looked like a dimple at first glance, and it looked extraordinarily sweet and charming.The blue pupils were inexplicably gloomy and melancholy.In the face of Ivan's strong anger, there was no helplessness or panic.

Hannibal even gave an extra cold smile: "If you're talking about those big-leaved grasses, it's me, and they're a real pain in the ass to clean."

"Aw! Hannibal! You bastard!" Ivan was furious.Behind him, a pair of cool little hands grabbed him: "Ivan." Just a name calmed the hound down.

Ivan turned around: "Why did you come downstairs? Misha, you're sick, go back upstairs." Misha, that is Claire, nodded coldly.She glanced at the nominal elder brother with the same eyes as Hannibal, and then pulled Ivan up the stairs under the complex and deep expression of the other party.

And Hannibal behind him?The contented smile on his face was completely restrained, and his eyes were heavy.At first glance, there is a huge difference from the innocent boy a few years ago.

And it all started two years ago.

Claire has never approached Hannibal since she decided to distance herself from him, and has ignored the boy's numerous overtures without hesitation.There was no reason, she just wanted to try if she could wake up from her dream if she stayed away from Hannibal.Even she wasn't sure if it was really better to wake up.

However, these obviously have no effect.And just a year later, after the deadlock between her and Hannibal had been completely reached, Ivan came to this place.His parents died as anti-Japanese heroes. At the age of 15, he was seven months old, so he was placed in this orphanage.And Ivan's first week here coincided with the early arrival of winter this year.The cold snap made Claire fall ill quickly, and because of the shortage of manpower, Ivan, who had just arrived and had not yet established friendship with others, became the person to take care of Claire.

In the following two years of getting along, even Claire himself didn't know why he caught Ivan's eyes, which made him start to pay attention and take care of himself.

And after their relationship started to get close, the conflict between Hannibal and Ivan gradually escalated.
