Chapter 30 He's a Man
Shangguan Nianci and Li Muxue looked at each other, all of whom were full of surprise. Then the two quickly ran over to stop the shouting newspaper boy and bought a newspaper.
Since there was no photo of Lin Rui in the newspaper, after reading the detailed contents of the newspaper, Li Muxue looked at Shangguan Nianci with some disbelief and said, "Nianci, do you think it would be that guy Lin Rui?"
Shangguan Nianci looked at the eye-catching typing of Captain Lin Rui in the newspaper and murmured: "It's him, you forgot. When you met last time, he mentioned his army number and position. The newspaper wrote it very clearly, and it was undoubtedly him."
Li Muxue poked her head and looked at the newspaper in Shangguan Nianci's hand, wrinkled her cute Qiong's nose and said, "I didn't expect that Lin Rui was so powerful that he became an anti-Japanese hero."
Shangguan Nianci recalled the scene where Lin Rui gave her the envelope at St. John's College. She had finished reading the story Lin Rui told, and she was deeply moved by the tragic ending of Supreme Treasure and Fairy Zixia.
When we first met, Lin Rui promised him a little stubbornly that he would join the army and serve the country in the future, and the scene where he was accidentally injured by a military police in Wujiaochang in order to save him.
Looking at the newspaper in his hand again, Shangguan Nianci's heart was gently touched by something.
Holding the newspaper, Shangguan Nianci showed an undetectable smile on the corner of her mouth, and she said with endless sweetness in her smile: "He is a man, a hero!"
...
Shanghai, No. 865 Nanjing Road, Central Daily News Shanghai Branch.
A young woman about 22 or 3 years old, about 1.65 meters tall, wearing a tight black suit and high heels, walked quickly to the office door of the branch president Li Changqing, and saw that the office door was closed.
The young woman raised her hand and knocked on the door a few times, and a thick male voice came from inside: "Come in."
The young woman pushed open the door and walked in. She saw a middle-aged man sitting behind the desk working at the desk.
"Uncle, are you looking for me?" the young woman walked over and asked.
The middle-aged man looked up and held his glasses and said, "Shiran, you are here, that's it. I just received a task. After thinking about it, you are the only one who is right by my side."
"Oh? What's the mission?" asked the young woman called Shiran curiously.
The woman's full name is Li Shiran. She is 24 years old this year. She graduated from Stanford University in California, USA. She was a reporter at the Shanghai Branch of China Daily at that time.
The man in front of her, whom she called her uncle, was the president of the China Daily branch in Shanghai, and was also a director of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection in Shanghai. He was specifically responsible for leading the agents and intelligence personnel of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection in Shanghai.
Li Changqing said: "You must have heard of Captain Lin Rui, who just made great contributions on the front line?"
"Yeah, I heard it." Li Shiran nodded slightly.
"It's like that. We didn't find Lin Rui's photos, especially those in military uniforms, so the publicity effect was much weaker. The headquarters instructed us to send a battlefield interview team to the front line to interview Lin Rui on the spot, take a few photos of him in military uniforms, and it's best to do an exclusive interview so that we can promote it."
"You should know that our country needs heroes now, and Lin Rui just happened to be the case. I learned about Lin Rui's background. This person was born in a scholarly family and was from St. John's University. So, after thinking about it over and over again, I decided to let you go for an interview, which is more appropriate.
Because no matter in terms of literary talent, background, etc., no one here is better than you. Lin Rui is not very old, he is about the same age as you, I think it should be easier for you to communicate with him than others when you interview him."
Li Shiran said in surprise: "I didn't expect that Lin Rui was from St. John's University? He is still so young."
"Yes, both civil and military, and both wise and brave. With his background and his achievements now, he will surely make a fortune in the future and his future is limitless!" Li Changqing looked at his niece meaningfully and said.
The Li family was also considered a wealthy family in the Republic of China, but it was far inferior to the Lin family. After understanding Lin Rui's origin, Li Changqing had his own little girl in his heart, so he thought of appointing Li Shiran as a war correspondent to interview Lin Rui on the front line.
Seeing that Li Shiran seemed to be thinking about something, Li Changqing asked, "Shiran, how about it, are you willing to go?"
"Yes." Li Shiran looked up at Li Changqing's gaze and said, "I just happened to want to see the style of the anti-Japanese heroes, so leave this task to me."
"Okay, you can prepare for it. I have already greeted Captain Ma of the Shanghai Police Corps. He will send a team of military police to escort you to the front line. When there, there will be people from the Tax Police Corps to answer." Li Changqing said.
Li Shiran nodded: "Well, then I'll leave first."
"Pay attention to safety." Li Changqing instructed.
"I know, don't worry, uncle." Li Shiran responded and turned around and left.
...
On the front line of Jiangwan Road, Lin Rui's eighth company became the most awesome company in the entire tax police regiment because of his great contribution.
In addition, the battle suffered a considerable loss last night, so I did not receive any combat missions for the time being. Instead, I remained on the streets of Jiangwan Road, a reserve team that has actually become our rear position.
Sun Liren had the intention of letting the Eighth Company rest, and because he received a notice from his superiors, there would be war reporters coming to interview, so he did not quickly put the Eighth Company on the front line and continued to participate in the war.
Of course, with the great victory of Jiangwan Road, the Japanese Marine Corps' troops in Shanghai were greatly weakened, and the offense became much smoother, and the war was not that tight.
If the battlefield is really in a hurry, Sun Licai won’t care about any interviews and will definitely dispatch Lin Rui and his hero company to the first time.
In a ring-shaped fortification facing the street, Lin Rui was inspecting the position accompanied by Zhou Weihan and Lin Feng.
Zhou Weihan followed Lin Rui, listening to the rumbling cannons coming from the front line, he couldn't help but say, "Company Commander, why did the regiment keep us as a reserve team? Listening to the dense sound of gunfire, but he could only wait and see, it was really itchy."
Lin Rui said: "It is probably because the team is polite to the subordinates. Now is a rare opportunity for rest and rest in our eighth company. Just be content. If the battle is unfavorable, this temporary rest and rest will become a luxury at that time."
"We have killed all the Japanese on Jiangwan Road. Will we be able to push them all the way and easily solve all the Japanese troops in Shanghai. Why will the battle be unfavorable?" Zhou Weihan said disapprovingly.
Lin Rui just smiled bitterly and did not refute it. He could not tell Zhou Weihan and others now that the Battle of Songhu will be defeated and Shanghai will definitely be lost.
