Chapter 290 My Mother is My Only Relative
Wang Xueliu didn't care about that. She knew that the people in this organization were ruthless. If you don't kill them, they will kill you. She sent a signal to Qin Shili, and the two darts in her hands flew out at the same time. Qin Shili's darts also flew out. The three people arrived before they even reached Li Jianwei's house.
"I'll go over and take a look. You stay alert!" Wang Xueliu was worried about Que Dongjin. He said to Qin Shili and walked over.
When Wang Xueliu entered the room and saw two people lying on the ground, she slapped them again, killing them. She had a premonition that Li Jianwei's mother might have been killed by these two people.
Wang Xueliu had just stood up when she heard Que Dongjin cursing inside: "Beast!"
"Dongjin, is she Jianwei's mother?" Wang Xueliu asked as she walked in.
"Yes. I will kill them!" said Que Dongjin.
"We've already killed them. Let me carry her and leave here quickly!" Wang Xueliu said as she walked to Li Jianwei's mother and carried her on her back, "Even if she dies, we'll carry her to bury her! Let Jianwei see his mother for the last time."
"Let's go! What kind of organization is this? So vicious! How did I join such an organization?" Que Dongjin said as he followed behind on guard.
"The Military Control Commission has always been like this, cruel and ruthless," said Wang Xueliu.
"I wonder how Zhang Dahu's grandmother is doing." Que Dongjin said.
"The Military Control Commission is currently targeting Li Jianwei. They may not have issued an ultimatum to us yet, so his grandmother should be fine. Okay, let's get out of the city quickly! Dahu and the others may be waiting for us outside the city." Wang Xueliu said.
"What's wrong? Jianwei's mother..." Qin Shili saw Wang Xueliu carrying Li Jianwei's mother on her back, and the person on her back didn't say a word.
"His mother was killed by those beasts!" Que Dongjin said in a muffled voice.
Qin Shili stopped talking and followed behind.
"I'll explore the way ahead, Xueliu, you'll be in the middle, Qin Shili, you'll be on guard at the back and be careful." Que Dongjin said.
After Que Dongjin finished speaking, he led them out of the city. As soon as they turned a corner in an alley, two patrolling Japanese soldiers appeared in front of Que Dongjin with guns drawn. They asked in stiff Chinese, "Who are you? What are you doing?"
"Your grandpa! A murderer!" Que Dongjin said as he threw a dart, piercing the enemy's throat. He went over to take out the dart, wiped it on the devil's clothes and said, "You are looking for death! Grandpa is dying! Hurry up and follow me!"
Wang Xueliu didn't say anything and followed Que Dongjin closely. She knew that when Que Dongjin was angry, he would not avoid a few Japanese devils, so it was bad luck for them.
Que Dongjin led them out of the city and never encountered the devils again. After leaving the city gate, they arrived at the meeting point, where Dahu and his men were already waiting for them.
"Jianwei's mother can't walk anymore?" Dahu asked.
"She, she was killed by people from the organization." Que Dongjin said.
"What? You said Jianwei's mother died? Let me see, how could this be possible?" Dahu's grandmother said, trembling.
"Grandma, don't look at it. Don't let those beasts scare you!" Que Dongjin said.
"You just said that someone from the organization killed his mother. What happened to Jianwei? How did your organization kill his mother? Did you and the organization..."
"Grandma, don't ask me anymore. I can't explain it to you right now. Our organization is a bit messy. We have left the organization and formed our own team to fight against the Japanese." Zhang Dahu said.
"Why did Jianwei's mother die?" the old man said, shedding tears.
"Wu Kui, carry grandma on your back and hurry up." Que Dongjin said.
"Grandma, come, I'll carry you." Wu Kui said.
"I don't want you to carry me. I can walk." said the old man.
"Grandma, please don't make trouble. Let Wu Kui carry you! We will take turns carrying you." Zhang Dahu said.
"Da Hu, talk to grandma nicely. Grandma, this mountain road is difficult to walk on. We are familiar with it, so let us take turns carrying you!" said Que Dongjin.
"Okay, I'll listen to Dongjin," said the old man.
"Xue Liu, come here, let me carry Li Jianwei's mother on my back, you take a rest." Qin Shili said.
"Xue Liu, let Qin Shili take over and carry you on her back for a while!" Que Dongjin said.
"Okay. Dongjin, you lead the way! Dahu and I will stand guard behind." Wang Xueliu said.
"Okay. By the way, don't say that Li Jianwei's grandmother was killed by the Military Control Commission after we go back." Que Dongjin said.
"Why? Why can't we talk about what the Military Control Commission did?" Jiang Wukui asked the old man with his back turned.
"Tell him it was the Military Control Commission who did it, he will be even more sad! Tell him it was the Japanese devils who did it!" said Wang Xueliu.
"That's what I mean. Let him hate the Japanese devils. If he says it was the organization that did it, he will be even more sad," said Que Dongjin.
"Grandma, did you hear that?" Zhang Dahu was afraid that his grandma would tell the truth.
"I don't care about your business. I'll just do what you say. How come my old bones don't die, but Jianwei's mother died?" The old man was still crying.
"Stop talking, grandma. Let's go!" Zhang Dahu said and asked them to go through the front door.
Along the way, no one spoke anymore.
Li Jianwei, Xie Mengqi and others were waiting in Yandongli, and no one went to sleep.
"Do you two think Que Dongjin and the others have already headed back?" Li Jianwei looked at Xie Mengqi and Zheng Can.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Do you miss your mother too much?" Zheng Can asked with a smile.
"I really miss her. I haven't been back to see her for a long time, but Dongjin went to see her for me." Li Jianwei said with a smile.
"Children miss their mothers, and you miss your mother too now that you're an adult," Xie Mengqi joked.
"Who doesn't miss their mother? My mother is the only relative I have," said Li Jianwei.
"It's normal to miss your family members, and it's human nature. It's hard not to miss them," said Zheng Can.
"Zheng Can, do you miss your parents?" Li Jianwei asked.
"Me? I wanted to. But I can't remember. My parents were beaten to death by the Jap devils. I was wandering around alone and was then accepted by the organization." Zheng Can said.
"I'm sorry, Zheng Can, I didn't know that it brought up your sad memories." Li Jianwei said.
"It's okay, I'm used to it. Those little Japs won't be able to stay away for much longer. If we can drive them out of China, my parents can rest in peace in the underground," said Zheng Can.
"Those little Japanese devils should be killed to death!" said Xie Mengqi.
"The Japanese devils are so despicable! From now on, I will kill one if I see one, and kill a pair if I see two." said Li Jianwei.
The three men were so angry about the Japanese that they wanted to fly out and kill a few of them.
"Stop! Don't talk! Listen, is there any sound? Are they calling us? They are back!" said Xie Mengqi.
"Jianwei! You guys come out..."
"Dongjin called us, why didn't they come in and let us go out? What happened?" Li Jianwei's heart dropped, he had a bad feeling.
"Don't think too much. He called you to go out and pick up your mother! Let's go." Xie Mengqi said as she walked towards the tree hole, and replied as she walked: "We are coming!"
Que Dongjin heard Xie Mengqi's answer and didn't say anything. Hearing their footsteps approaching, he said, "Mengqi, you and Zheng Can don't come up yet. Let Jianwei come up first. The two of you, bring up the tools that can dig the soil from below."
"What did you say? Tools for digging? We don't have any!"
"Anything that can dig the soil will do! Look for it! Iron tools or something like that!" Que Dongjin said loudly.
"I know." Xie Mengqi also felt something was wrong.
Xie Mengqi and Zheng Can walked back, muttering, "What are the digging tools for? Why do we need to dig? We can only use knives and hooks."
"Mengqi, could it be..."
"Don't talk nonsense!" Xie Mengqi didn't want to face reality.
At this time, Xie Mengqi and Zheng Can heard Li Jianwei crying outside.
"We are still too late. Jianwei's mother was murdered." Xie Mengqi said.
"How could this happen? Who did it?" Zheng Can asked.
"Who else could it be? The Military Intelligence Bureau!" Xie Mengqi said.
“Too cruel!”
"This is their usual style! But we didn't think of this. We should have brought his mother over earlier!" said Xie Mengqi.
When Xie Mengqi and Zheng Can were about to reach the tree hole with their tools, Que Dongjin slipped down and said to Xie Mengqi and the others, "I came down to tell you that Li Jianwei's mother was killed by the Japanese."
"The Japanese killed him? They acted so quickly? It wasn't the Military Control Commission? That's strange." Xie Mengqi asked.
"Mengqi, you are too familiar with the Military Control Commission, and we can't fool you. In order to prevent Li Jianwei from feeling overly guilty and grieving, we said that it was the Japanese who killed his mother. That's right, it was the Military Control Commission who did it." Que Dongjin said.
"The Military Control Commission was really cruel," said Zheng Can.
"Okay. Remember! Don't let anything slip! Go up and bury his mother!" Que Dongjin said.
The three of them climbed out of the tree hole and came down to the ground. Li Jianwei was still crying on his mother.
Que Dongjin pulled him up and said, "Jianwei, the dead cannot be resurrected, please accept my condolences! Kill more Japanese devils in the future to avenge your mother! Let's go and bury her. Let's go to that open space! Bury her there so she can see us killing the enemy!"
"You little Jap devils! I will tear you into pieces!" Li Jianwei said crying.
"Da Hu, why don't you take your grandma to the cave and let her rest first?" Wang Xueliu said.
"No. I want to give her a ride. I'll go too." said Da Hu's grandmother.
"Okay! Let her go with us." Que Dongjin said.
Jiang Wukui carried Li Jianwei's mother on his back and walked towards the open space. At this time, there were already stars in the sky, but the night was still dark.
The night wind was blowing, and it was a little chilly. However, Que Dongjin and the others did not feel the chill. They were just on their way, and instead felt their bodies were hot. However, Zheng Can and Xie Mengqi had just come out of the warm cave and felt a little chilly.
Everyone came to the flat ground. Jiang Wukui put Li Jianwei's mother down. Li Jianwei sat beside his mother, still sobbing.
"Jianwei, don't be sad and take care of yourself." Que Dongjin said.
"Let's start digging." Wang Xueliu took the iron hook and started digging, and Xie Mengqi and the others followed suit.
