  Gang Shen Yang thought Hagi Fox, is a casual thing entirely.
  At the end got a cold, so college was turned into pneumonia lung disease really was. In order to complete convalescence in 2023, he had no nostalgia to quit the job Mitsubishi Bank, one in May, led his wife to Karuizawa Fangzi to the north of his friends to Sasaki's this small Hill. From the higher age, he liked mountain. He originally wanted to join into the English Department Sasaki, but the family insisted he read the economy, when so often absent from school, the two or three books into the backpack to travel. Since the wire off to the bank's window lattice with the middle, he then mountain late in the spring of beauty, quiet and cool heart pleasing to the eye, even felt a strong nostalgia.
  Before leaving Tokyo, between husband and wife had this conversation.
  "I would like to enter a nursing home as is, where it spent a considerable period. You will not be such a determination, at the beginning do not have to go along."
  "Yes, some determination."
  "There now with Karuizawa completely different. One summer, even a figure is also served with friends. Tianyi particularly cold, to the winter season, from November to now this time, snow everywhere, with the community is isolated. stand it? "
  "No matter bear can not stand, anyway, there is no other way."
  Answer, her lips quivering, a pair of black eyes in the surface of the tear or two. Like dew on the grass plot on the tip like, tears round to stick in the eyelashes, the blink of an eye to the nose straight down the handsome rolled down, scattered.
  Hagi is also silent Gang up, a trial of strength with a lighter draw matches. In this program, in addition to the need for early convalescence, he has also felt a secret joy of romantic Mystic, put it to his wife that he deliberately exaggerated, is that the outpouring of feeling, but the tears and back to the Buddist up to the reality of the trouble, made him feel a bit unpleasant: the widowed a few years ago, his temper became worse, but the surface still pretend to be friendly solemn stepmother; stepmother's daughter - a bit lame, missed the wedding, is not quick-witted sister; become their cold, lightly humiliated goals wife. Fangzi was originally a friend of the family servant, Hagi the surrounding hills despite the opposition since her marriage, although the family was kind enough to live with, but he and his wife lived in a small alley toward the past, often leased to foreign ambassadors Western-style house museum staff. The stepmother and sister were living together in Japanese-style house adjacent to it or the father specially invited from Nagoya, construction foreman and carpenter, though not quite Hongzhuang, but the style is very elegant. They are still the way according to my father was alive and habits through life. The Karuizawa north to take a turn to recuperate, but also to make such a separation is geographically farther away from some. Compared to swallow now, the Fangzi would rather endure the loneliness and inconvenience Mountain. Stepmother can find my sister married into a suitable son, let him take care of home. Then their responsibility to take care of the family can also be freed, also dismissed the bank job, and why bother and what is necessary to stay in Tokyo boring too! Gang Hagi This attitude seems in his widow stepmother, with her husband from the official sector into an active case of two businessmen in contrast to that is not sterile, is back, and think this is wrong cast of marriage. If it is the right of marriage, the wife will never let her husband have done this not be known to do: to do a little sick, put Mitsubishi's job to throw away, ran out of Tokyo to go. The first is that out did not sound, but also can not tell people to say. This anger, somehow fell from the so-called in a day hospital revealed a return to the front surface of the Fangzi head, for her, it is difficult to endure. If not, when the uncle of Admiral Cheng actively support them, and even two weddings are not held in common. Hagi Gang intentionally avoiding his father left the leaf-equipped Hills, try to walk away several times by a friend of the Villa and inconvenient, but also for this reason. When a major earthquake in Japan Bridge ① Fangzi lost their parents, after staying at home aunt Ushigome area, grew up in poverty, the hard-won on the women's vocational school, while traveling in the school the first time get the train. Kang himself how to live without Hagi, in her are unimaginable. However, if this is the normal time to leave Tokyo, and she may feel even more miserable too!
  ① Nihonbashi, Tokyo, Japan within the poetry center, financial and commercial hub.
  In short, they like to come here. The total surface is transferred to recuperate. Suddenly, he is a fox raising, just as at the beginning of that, it completely by accident. This idea was first raised fox farm led Fangzi time to see cause to the. Fox Field in support of that side of the station, Hagi Gang to the mountains to the total time to get there take a turn. "This time I told my wife was holding together with everyone in the mood to _set_tle down here, and like him to care. Sick thing, but ran out of ammunition fills in Tokyo, so I thought some time to grow some potatoes or something, to When the farmer friends. can be read fine rain farming it. "
  Hagi Gang said such a hearing, Yang Ping _Set_o fox farm owner advised him to keep Fox, said: "The clear reading of farming rain? Harvest live is not so easy to dry Yeah. Just here to be planting in mid-May, late September began to frost, busy, the big cost is also not receive anything fresh. Or Yang Yang crops Sure than fox. keep it at the beginning of a pair of two pairs, first with small-scale dry, do not benefit non-profit management, it can be very interesting! dealing with living things, have to up the morning at dawn, have beds the things by the book to it. physically weak people, do such activities on health is also good for it! "
  "That would be a good idea. But I do not like to raise this way Fox ah. However, when the bank teller, I do not what self-confidence had come forward."
  Gang Yang Zhelian Hagi, showing adenosis quality collar neck and prominent Adam's apple long, smiling. Although it is self-deprecating tone, but tone is rarely heard in Tokyo, hearty, lively. Ping _Set_o pour over the tea the second time, and that wanted to do for as long as there is no problem, still continue to support Fox talk about things.
  "Keep other stuff too, keep Fox, you cherish it, this is the biggest secret. In fact, as you get to use, will naturally produce a feeling dear. I Well, according to my wife that love fox also worse than the love of family on! "
  A wave of his wife, is a corner of the room to chat with Fangzi. The house is not a Western-style, and shop floor is cement for the summer from Karuizawa to under the foreign guests can wear shoes, go in, the wall is also a cheap wallpaper paste. Them the layout of the room into the corner of the window like a glass case, standing in a glass case in front of Ah Long, pointed collar placed on the inside of the silver fox, hand cage, waistcoat, and said how they how cheap, compared with three increasingly, the price is only - half. This is a shoulder a large waist, four-year-old woman up and down, round, plump face, as often as residents of this plateau, there are some UV drying out of the dark red spots, thick arms and legs, strong body and strong, like a pretty woman. Standing, wearing a Western shirt Fangzi, although sub-similar, look a lot still full, but made it very delicate thin by comparison of the. In particular, half-white hair, back slightly bent, a small flat skeleton _Set_o, wave front in Afghanistan, not here with as her husband, inverted image is the father. A wave is a second wife, watching her husband to talk to a difference of more than twenty years. Ping _Set_o's two sons have flown, it is said, they said the fox family, refers to the stepmother. But Hagi Gang believe that just as some people say flat _Set_o is a liar, and he is one good place to be, like, this is not necessarily within the dispensers as bad as people say. The relationship between themselves and stepmother from a thought, but he did not want to imagine that this woman is very bad. Gang of emotions in Hagi, this ingredient are many. In fact, he often went in a mood to reflect on the bitter aftertaste since childhood, never hated, resisted, with Fangzi marriage thing, be the only one exception. Tears
  Glass case above the old wall clock, this time in a feeble voice played ten.
  After listening to the last ring, flat with his wife beat _Set_o say hello, and said, while he was leading when the guests to the farm for corn dumpling point. Said, as he rose from his chair, received the guests went to the backyard. The front rack up the floor a little hut off the ground, in front of the open space of about two-floor, which is a pair of fox home and playground. Such a unit, connected to a crowded cell, separated by barbed wire across the open, have a barbed wire surrounded the outside wall to form a rectangle of the tribe. Where not much, but in the empty brown grass fields and the middle ridge, you can see the fox, for the twenty children that there is no established several roof, the light has four wire frame home. Ridge in the field, drilled just bud early sowing of peas, grass tied to the goat, fox homes dotted the drawing looked like a Japanese paper. There are also other buildings of a grid pattern, which is the same as cascade high tower watch tower, from above, saw that a fox can be a house. Fox, not a small house, in their movement across the field open to the sun. Heard the sound of approaching people, warning them to look back and a long bushy tail, and some to toss, turn and fled into the hut, and some pointed ears erect, with silver-gray eyes shoot your breath to see you hanging for a while, and then line of sight, changing the tip of the nose all right Side to get on the ground close to the wire. Swinging the tail and some business as usual, kept moving around slowly. Coat, said the characteristics of the so-called silver alone, one by one, looked sharp on a black, middle white, close to the root of the skin is gray; the whole looked like under a layer of frost, the white lines more Yingjie , the more regarded as fine varieties, made collar, the price is high. Concentrated in the tip of the tail also white hair, white ball into a ball shape, and is said to be more valuable. But here they do not see. Feed is adequate, Chen grains than there are fish, care is also very good, so smooth coat, plenty of sunshine in May under the plateau shiny, in a barbed wire next to a small pear trees are blooming, the branch head full of white flowers, looking like an impressionist painting-like.
  "It looks beautiful, is not so scary too!"
  Fangzi never been so near to carefully read a fox, now wildly over the child with great spirit to go side to side. Her words, for the fairy tale or not a very good reputation in other parts of this beast, with a kind of sympathy.
  "Afraid of a fox ah. Wife!" Ranging from opening next to Fangzi husband, walking in front of the flat _Set_o first burst in, "said the fox sinister, suspicious of strong heart, it is because Fox always wary of were a kind of Fear. This can also be said to be quick-witted, to master the habit to play with it, There is nothing more harmless animal in it. "
  "Block statue of a fox will give you stand it!"
  "Ha ha ha. But no such sympathy, it is not good care ah. Wife seems very like the live stuff, right?"
  "At this point my wife is a fellow with you. Dog friends, cats, birds matter, what wants to keep. Rat badly ruined the kitchen, but mixed with rat poison, she could not do it. In love animals, this point, perhaps more than you do, Mr Ping _Set_o! "
  "Little mouse Chuliuchuliu, and also very cute thing!"
  "Temperament gentle ladies always the case. You see, the world hates women living thing, there is no good thing."
  So Ping _Set_o and persuade them to support Fox, said his wife, then there are the best assistant.
  A wave was used as a clean, dry corn dumplings and earned just squeeze the milk of goats, Hagi Gang and Fang Zi be a meal to eat lunch early, and went home.
  "How, Fox raised you?"
  "Oh! No matter how you like animals, but Fox said support ... ..."
  "If really dry up, the Tokyo family will faint."
  "They will think you are mad to!"
  "Lung disease and mad! For them, it would be more lost dignity."
  "Let's not say things you do not want to Tokyo?"
  She felt a little tired, leaning on a cane chair, Zhang Mei under the two slightly curved blue in the eyelids screwed some up himself Side, said: "How still, how comfortable ah! You always said Hill, ah, Hill ah, come here to really know its benefits. came, I was somewhat worried that too quiet, lonely you, will not un_set_tling. the same quiet, quiet are different here yet. in Tokyo home In what though you will, do not come back late late, around the kind of silence, really scary, but here on the matter, the more quiet, more pleasant feel. "
  "No distracting thoughts and ambitions, honest heart, who will be the case. Had people just start in the middle of nature in this life, love nature, this is for thousands of years, tens of thousands of years ago the love of the resurrection of life."
  "The reason I do not know, but every morning, open the window, I always say keep up Asama Good morning. Because the mountains seem to greet it with me!"
  "Not only is the mountain, where we for the sheep, forest trees, streams, rocks and water, will also feel the morning every night, chatted with them yet. Everything will teach people to feel that there is a soul. The only way to make fully integrated with the nature of life. You wait and see. nature will become more beautiful, more rich, so that any person can not but feel like this. In another few days, the mountain plateau of pomegranate will put this decorated in a red, green larch will become even Xin grass in bloom, will sing the cuckoo and the oriole. you want to see the opening of the lily of the valley on the ground, then they will shy white mountains flowers. "
  "'m Really glad ah!" Fangzi like a child-like, with a lively splash of tone said.
  Into June, although mountain spring, late spring scene was entirely. Last month, although the cherry, pear opened, but the early morning light between the hills covered with a thin layer of snow often, there is now only one place at a mountainside depression signs keep till winter, soft Zihui color day by day to the concentrated. Snow across the valley at the ramp foot of the mountain people of the village called it as "a light blue", until it is exposed to one apparently, that means spring is deep, without fear of frost, sow can feel at ease. Idiot along the plateau gradually turning green, is also at this time. First, along the sunny grass, a little green shoots emerge in the root. Just as the water drops in the glass two or three drops of blue ink, is not white water, but can not be said with the color, looked just like a little bit of change, but day by day decaying leaves turn green, Q unknowingly becomes clear grass green photo eye. From the slopes of hills in the jungle in the middle, the leaves withered into a dark brown and gray, tangled into a ball group, is the high weight of the snow had thatched lodging and weeds, this time also with green Emotion to stand up. Village women and children to sweep away these weeds rustling to mushrooms. Into a cup that is concave, beautiful brown and mushroom flavor. Plucking and vegetables, then again, mining bracken you, digging Angelica Rights, adopted purple calyx, the view from here at the beginning, these wild mountains, the village has become when people lean valuable food. November down to the cellar because of the vegetables eaten quickly, and expect to accept fresh from the ground, the more we have to wait until August. Hagi frequently to the nearby hills and Fangzi a south-facing slopes up. She went to adopt a basket fern, Hagi Gang to bring in his pockets loaded with a small shovel to dig Angelica chest. The kind of reddish purple soil angelica root, looked bright looking, ignorant of the Road is also very fragrant. Soil angelica oil cooking fern dipped in miso and, for Hagi Gang, from the time used to travel from the mountains there is a great charm.
  "Tokyo Baba sent listless listless vegetables, root vegetables lot of money."
  "Say such things, can not live deliberately sent the mother ah!"
  "But they will say, go somewhere that ghosts, and even vegetables have to send it from home."
  "Anyway, here heard, it does not matter."
  "You come to the mountains, do not care what becomes a full."
  "So it was time to fat to get going, really annoying. But you have completely changed appearance Rights."
  "Too healthy you, drag me to go to China, it can be good. So health Wait recovery is a good point."
  "The thought of this, Fangzi felt so worried about her husband's sick, actually deserves gratitude; and she will be remembered, marriage gave them so much support for the uncle, his only son, as ordinary soldiers, just launching the out to killed in action in Shanghai to do the fighting. However, more than a month of mountain life changes brought Gang Hagi is significant. body, his face all over his flesh. He likes reading, but also painting oil paintings, original Start painting from the mountains, and often draw some amateur enthusiasts with a sense of good works Su Park, and now these are more took root. wearing a blue sweater, whistling, jumping lightly towards the balcony action, has also been used to light does not have the flexibility. Fangzi it, For the first time in such a place to live extends the Chang Chang, the same effect on her was more notable for the performance. not only as she said, fat it, and the mountain of the sun, a bit like the half-breed her forehead and straight nose are tan colored wheat. In Tokyo, even if the thick face to wipe the rouge, would immediately disclosed to the original white, Now with an almond-like faces are always rosy. because the span during the day is to wear short-sleeved thin sweater, so the two arms of drying out a distinct line of bare hands, until the fingers are also darker than tanned face, but also red in the palm through the white, soft look. Fangzi the two hugs in the chest, fell on the line of sight is naked under the skirt a pair of slim, but that seems a little bit to become thick the calf, said: "I quickly became friends keep fox-like floor dispensers. "
  She was referring to raise fox farm wife Ah Long Flat Nose into her appearance, is Fangzi most afraid of. She felt so tanned into the country people look good, and think a little bad boy, but not know it adds to her beauty. Hagi is different from the past often used Gang vision, gaze looked tanned wife. Originally, he Fangzi of love, which to a lot of doping for the unfortunate, poor, innocent orphan who gracious mercy. Can also be said that he grew up craving motherly love sinking, lonely heart, lonely hearts in the same found a home. Thus, his love is clear, practical, although intense, but dry static, even burn, not violent. In sputum mixed with bloodshot eyes, the time series of high fever, he was more than he thought after the death of death how to make her happy. Although not say, but he was just back from a ship's uncle and Sasaki had entrusted it all. Although the thought of a short married life was like a thing of the past, but after all, from the lowly, stigma and poverty in the rescue of a poor woman, he seems to think that you can safely rest in peace by. But lately the mood Gang Hagi was somehow different. He thought, and then repeated if the sick, dying, he would not so willing to leave his wife to die. Of course, the uncle and Sasaki will try to make her stepmother and sister does not occur with any major trouble negotiations, face to affluent to live. But this does not guarantee that her life as a widow. On the contrary, very relaxed when the idea of the kind of naval servicemen's uncle, is actually very likely to persuade her to remarry. Then, there will come an unknown man, possession of her gentle, honest and dedication, even just a secret between himself and her, those lovely move, ear whisper, also all away, and can not appreciate their value, their really have to look at this situation from heaven is not it? Hagi Gang suddenly snapped the ivory chopsticks to leave on the table.
  "Ah, how is it?"
  "Students! Trying to eat!"
  "I'm sorry. I do not raw it!"
  Fangzi really scared to eat, to own a small dish of salt baked trout delivery in the past. Hagi Gang angry, in fact, because the fish is not cooked or roasted unfamiliar, but because the man suddenly thought of that unwarranted, and she may be sitting down to dinner.
  "Into the matter, as it!"
  He immediately regretted it, also the piece is actually not as half-baked roasted trout out of small chopsticks.
  One night, Hagi Gang confession everything. Fangzi listened, lying on the breast Chouchouyeye husband crying, hate him, blaming him why he thought the terrible nausea that in mind, rather than telling myself. She even scolded him like a mother Side, said he was more sturdy body this time around, there is no need for thinking ill, died of these extra things. And vowed that no matter what she is going to be together with him dead, without him, he is not live. Such vows are generally absolutely can not abide, but Hagi Gang that she seems to be able to license the line. Just as she told to come and the mountains, like, if a go die, now she will not hesitate to prepare to die. Recent somehow difficult to control their impulse to jealousy, though has a clean break with the past, but how to do because the future has not yet felt the Liushenwuzhu stereotypes, for the "Incident" has been difficult to muddle down the name of the war caused by all the tumult of the outside world His hatred and unhappiness, and the resulting sense of nothingness, there is a disease once thought of recovery will be pulled to fight the despair arising from all this that Hagi Gang feel sick a little bit better even looked up as if , also must difficult to fully recover, so he often felt even on his death is an easy temptation. However, only the secret He was not disclosed to the Fangzi. Fitted out with such deliberate happy, he once told a story.
  "True as that done according to it?"
  "Of course, the other is a god thing. Since that time, the old man and wife as God before the waiter, but they have aged too can not do anything live. One evening, they both are in front of the yard overlooking the surrounding beauty the lake, the old man's body suddenly grow leaves come. wife surprise, but her body began to become a tree. seeing two people are covered with leaves the body, feet turned into roots, trunk body becomes , two hands into a tree. but does not yet face into the tree, two people face to face, and said: 'old woman, goodbye, let's vow to the gods demand, and now to come. really deserves thanks ah !''Good-bye, Father! 'two men took leave of each other, this time the green leaves of their mouth sealed. old man, tall and straight into a tree, Castanopsis, his wife turned into a beautiful banyan tree Since then, standing side by side for ever and ever on the lake. how about, the story is beautiful, right? "Fangzi nodded, moved to speak, the eyes of a bubble with tears. She began to think that if they can get this kind of happiness, what will become the tree? Larch? Fir tree? Or acacia flowers is now open, Shanteng? The next few days, this choice becomes Fangzi the pleasant thought.
  "I must change hackberry. '
  "I do not like the kind of tree."
  Fangzi know to wear clogs with rain is made with this wood, she has a lush for such a large oval-shaped leaves grow trees to a little contempt. Therefore, deliberate smile Hagi Gang said, make her play. As uncivilized savages the top of the rock as their ancestors, to the crisp, taut lightning gods like the trees, with such feelings to talk about the case, where the sound is very natural and full of realism.
  On this front, the raising of farm fox carrying a basket of eggs in the flat _Set_o visit them here. Eggs that they laid down, usually not when they had stepped back to take the way, is to let the A wave to sent, personally, your visit today, Ping _Set_o, it is because otherwise things I want to discuss.
  "Just a vendor, the next determined how?"
  Rattan chair in the hall just sat down on his mouth, is to ask them to not buy next to a support fox field.
  "In the past around with you mentioned, it is a rich man half of the front axle to engage together as a pastime, fox house, though small, with five pairs, six pairs also raised high, but with a small villa-style house, on the You can be too appropriate. and also three thousand ping away land, said to be thirty thousand will come forth, like that which can be white to like! "
  "Gan Meyao then hurry to sell?"
  "This band has - a time to keep fox farm to house twenty-huh, and now are like this. Disputes with China, and now has become a shooting big battle, and taxes the rest of the money, What all have to buy government bonds, this time also talk about what the Silver Fox collar! about Rentongcixin, and it would have discouraged friends. Now the building, even though there still, but there's also the remaining two or three foxes the. At this time, urge you to support Fox, seems very contradictory, but you do not want to reap some profit in it, than dry crops, live, on your right, health is also very good indeed. If you do not want to raise Fox, light red house, buy it also will not lose out with conviction. "
  "There is a fox it?"
  "There are three pairs. You do not want to, I can leave. Anyway, I be in this life and forged a bond with the fox, just die, ready to go on. Ha ha ha ha."
  Ping _Set_o SEEDS Xunde brown smoke revealed the buck teeth, big mouth, Hehedexiao the. He has sat down for lunch, Hagi had to fight to listen to his Gang talk about his so-called bond from the beginning - this is his half the experience, but also the history of Japanese industry, support Fox.
  Ping _Set_o started to raise in the Sakhalin Island fox is four years in a large, local town but also from the Fengyuan north two miles and more of a Deserted Village. The original name of the village called Noah lek Sand Russia Khabarovsk, time has been called by Japanese small marsh village. However, seven more than a dozen families, there are four Russians. Surrounded by a desert of wet grassland, rivers and swamps everywhere. Is therefore derived from the name of the village.
  There are many foxes on the grass. There is a cross fox, from head to tail tip of hair along the spine with a black pattern, from the neck to the shoulder with the same color under the hair just to pay into a cross pattern. CLP fox and red fox San Mao. The sun came out to illuminate the Sunburn people, but they often Jumping on a swamp mist, this is the best for the fox's interest-bearing conditions.
  "That is the Temple when the Cabinet, Ambassador of gold sir. At that time the community kind of air, that why the fox from the foreign country for this stuff! But, Mr. Ambassador, helped a lot of busy, for I bought a dozen pairs. three pairs of on board died, and the remaining seven pairs of flat to be his wife in Japan. one-thousand round, at the time, but a considerable sum of money miles! I deliberately from Hokkaido to Beijing, went to Yokohama to pick up these Fox, a thought I will personally tends the past, just seen pictures of these foreign good species, similar to what sexual anxious, thinking about the early look, coupled with fear can not put them to the Hokkaido area Taipingwushi , then it can not sleep at night feel at ease with what! "
  He went on breathlessly, as wildly about what happened yesterday, full of excitement and joy. His words, there is a man obsessed minds of the non-United States, although some self-praise, it sounds not so offensive. Hagi Gang and Fang Zi deftly put lunch with him eating with one hand, felt similarly to hear him. Although previously heard some bits and pieces, but this whole story in detail is the first time I heard today. "Too much trouble today, Mrs. it! Western this stuff, we do not know what that smell great too!" Ping _Set_o chunk of bread thrown into the mouth, praised the delicious roasted meat, and that the opportunity to ask them to try Fox taste of meat.
  "Oh, fox meat you eat it?"
  "Not now, after the autumn when the good to eat on the fat."
  "There is smell it?"
  "We are worried about this, but nothing. I heard the meat was scarce Jingjing, the Chinese New Year this year, when a good friend of a friend's house to send two, they are happy, sent a large sum of money, just scared me the jump, said that if Fox can sell them meat, how much to send to do. My wife saw it a good one, he said, before the fox is not as valuable, and spend so much effort and feed do not come together, not as killed meat, quit buying it raised fox, specialized chicken get on, you say, what I have to say about it? I would say, I was started by the fox, regardless of losing money to make money, in this life be with the fox Paoshang way, if you do not want to, you can get out. ha ha ha ha. "
  Ping _Set_o again opened his mouth, sent a shrill hollow laugh. He seems to forget, say industry is the decline of Fox raising these facts, would be to induce care to buy a new fox the impact of the other field. This sounds Hagi Gang, the idea is very interesting, Hagi Gang bank job finally done in 2023, came to know the level _Set_o told him it deliberately, not just for warm, but in the end to what a good level _Set_o level, and cunning to what extent, he Mo Buzhun. Moreover, even if the experience of his remarks is that Fox raised it, but when he was young went to Sakhalin Island, is how to go? If he has two sons have no relation, then the A wave is outside the Of course there is a house wife, this room where his ex-wife now? He now looked like Ah Long is not only father and daughter, in fact, a difference of age of fifteen-year-old, how is two people to a piece of that? where he was born, How is a living place for this particular interest? all Hagi Gang all do not know. The last question is easy to find out out. Just ask your family where it will lead to many of the origins of other words. But Hagi has always been very reluctant to intervene in Gang lives of others, so even so did not ask.
  The next morning, Hagi Gang said: "The fox farm today to keep a look!"
  Like to see him look like the night to consider.
  "Really want to buy it?"
  "They specifically came to tell for a while, anyway, go take a look to say."
  Two people there, waiting for a long time flat _Set_o'll take them away. Fox was raised by the sale of the field, separated by a good piece of potato species and has been a chicken coop, _Set_o of the land next to flat, or even equal to the level of land within _Set_o, the other side and hold a piece of white birch trees woods, the middle of a small spring, meanders into the creeks, lush next to a long piece of celery.
  "Ah, with a basket to be good."
  Fangzi wearing a pair of white sail cloth shoes, with her husband behind, lightly jump over the stream. If it is not tight with Hagi Gang urged her: "Hey, those things later date!" She really did not want to walk away then squatting at the waterside.
  "Yes, this eye spring, and yesterday I did not tell you. This is what a baby!"
  _Set_o walked in front of one side flat, side look back and say, well this band are playing in the hills sloping down from the shallow gravel between the strata, and often no water. But this spring but never dry eyes are small, dry, under the snow in the winter, but also continue to gush, and the water is lukewarm.
  "So, snow several feet deep? Ping, Mr. _Set_o! Skiing we always to go pills Ze marsh and deer, just passing through this area."
  "It was probably the relationship Asama it, snow is less than a foot deep. However, the cold fresh island with birch too similar to Fox this is good for raising conditions. So, you want to be here New Year, without adequate preparation is make life difficult. the house for the winter is very well equipped, even with this, I want you to buy it do not suffer losses. "
  "Really want to wash when in backpack fitted with towels and soap to Kusatsu Onsen to go."
  Was taking a bath at an inconvenient time, there is a Gang said Hagi, kept the Fangzi amused. Kusatsu do not need to go, it is because the dry climate of the plateau here, but cool, wipe with hot water every day, would not be much like a bubble in the bathtub, and a week there is always something you want to go home, Shu Ping time, just say what, people will help them burn the main bath water. But this is only good in the season when the weather cold, it would have to make other plans. For the same reason, the sight of the kitchen and dining-room seats six shops which the court system of the house has a large iron stove, Hagi Gang called up; "Oh, this stuff can be good."
  Stove is oval, above the size of a stove eyes, large cooking pots can sit, you can put a small frying pan and kettle, either cooking, but also heating, very convenient. Households in the village often the plateau, as the Russian peasant has a samovar, every family has such a stove. From November to enter the long winter, when it became an indispensable belongings, people burning stove all day, even Teppanyaki will be white.
  Ping _Set_o home and now have also used this stove for cooking. Sometimes a bath to his home, the next long while suddenly encounter rain, Ping _Set_o put them beside the stove received, said: "re-warm about it here!"
  He then threw a firewood stove to go, that sun Dry wood immediately in the kindled fire in the embers. Furnace whirring noise issue, on the small kettle boiling on the stove eye up. So tea is brewed here. Not only convenient, but also very simple, just what is the Mountain House, so Hagi Gang like the stove and no less than like Tokyo that British-style heaters home, he would like to get one recently.
  "It's in this area are invited to a village three miles away to do the blacksmith, the blacksmith dispensers, craft very well, but just too lazy to ask him to do this can be done out of the year when there are virtually no, awful friends. you ask him to do it, ah, next year the winter it would not open it! "
  Listening to his tone, as if that alone stove, the house is worth buying, but he did not the nerve to say so out in the end.
  Keep fox farm in the back. Wire loop into the Fox house, high watch tower, equipment and configuration _Set_o home with the next exactly the same level, only a small number, like the latter a model. There is no fox. When homeowners move out, the fox _Set_o entrusted to the care of the flat.
  Ping _Set_o intend to return the favor yesterday, entertain them to lunch, They declined. Not only because polite, but because the next morning Fangzi saw in Karuizawa sent from the bread has been eaten to use baking powder as usual, made a pot of their own face, her hair is so intense fear of sour face , so they'll be back.
  "Do not have time to sent each time the bakery can bake it at home Jiuhaola. But do not rely on the ordinary into the oven."
  "This time we will go do a real bread oven. You come to the sale of dry bread, I'll do support the sale of Fox, how?" Hagi Gang with a pleasant smile, his white teeth said. Then they immediately serious, quite emotion added: "What is still a good career."
  Fangzi not understand why he suddenly talking about this to. But before she could ask, but could not help but exclaimed: "Oh, the window open it!"
  They can already be seen in front of that big hill is located in the half, around the middle of a small piece of white birch Villa had. Came out, according to this approach with a small mind, there is no lock, but the windows and doors are shut properly, how to actually reveal a pink window curtains? Two people ran down the hill slowly up . Not to the door, heard footsteps Sasaki, from the window of his house unearthed strong upper body fat come.
  "Yes you, can startled us."
  "We thought it came a thief. You come good."
  "Walking time is really long ah. Let specifically from Tokyo to the guests wait two hours, but also a bit that it!"
  "Ah, wait so long?"
  Fang Zi said, then let her admirably to serve a lunch, then went into the kitchen. Hagi rattan chair closer to the hills to her friends after a long absence, said: "Today is not what a walk. Is an important thing to go out, this may be my turn for the better life."
  "Well, what do you fresh!" Because the other side smiling all very deliberately exaggerated, so Sasaki used the same tone asked: "probably not apply when the reporters to think of war in China to see it?"
  "It is so simple!"
  Hagi Gang told him the level of support _Set_o Fox Field told a friend, Sasaki seemed really surprised, Yan Juaner dangling from his lips tightly, silent child, long from nose spray a smoke.
  "Buy down, really want to keep fox it?" '
  "I think Yang Yang may also wish to see."
  "This is wishful thinking. Really like the fox farm raised, said the treasurer's that simple? Health benefits even if it tends the fox, to buy feed, collecting fodder, especially at this time, it is not so easy ah."
  "These things, Ping _Set_o, said he can one agent."
  "Even so, but listen to you, as if the bathroom to the house and the stove, there is a small spring that eye only want to buy fox farm raised, only want to keep a fox. Thousand flat land, according to the wild in this area value not on price but also in Tokyo ten pings. opponents are the kind of opponent, so-so, you had better big when the miles on! "
  "You say it is on fox when, or dispensers if?"
  "Is a walk back and forth, all hell!"
  "I do not think that way."
  Gang-Ping _Set_o Hagi made a pass defended him from engaging in Sakhalin Island, half-raised foxes since described the experience again, that this has always been his passion for, it can take credit for some of the. Hagi Gang believes that raising the level for the fox farm _Set_o things around, went to get a large commission of money, of course, goes without saying, but under the current situation in the now, business is gradually fading, a partner in the mood to Dora is not false, but also a great ingredient for preparing for the first time people in the warm winter here. "Anyway, you will not be on what children think the worse."
  "At this point, here, but another world. And I do not get out of bed for patients, they still have a good career." Hagi Gang replied. His words and his tone is and come back in half the same way with the wife. And also with the same time, not say anything, but he felt that if the start of a simple, regular life, the kind of inexplicable recent hazy feel envy and the death of his temptation, and perhaps can be overcome.
  Lunch, a bottle of grape collection of French business, coupled with the beer, making Sasaki even more excited. He is now engaged in the Translation of Japanese classical works, and today is living next to Karuizawa, a British consultant to ask where, by the way here, so have to take advantage of the tram back to half past three. "To look at, Relax! Did not think you go so well, Fangzi next year comes, will give me a raise Hagi Gang produced the silver fox farm fox collar, right?"
  "Well, before you buy into. To invite you to buy a wife as a souvenir." Fangzi freely eating together with them, she is not joking easily, but this time they made such a joke answer. "But, Mr. Sasaki, the things we do not support Fox decided it!"
  "Determined!"
  "Oh!"
  Sasaki's tone more than her husband is also decisive, Fangzi simply scratching their heads, she had just crossed a fried potatoes, to go to the mouth, but in the fork stopped halfway. In fact, until the time Hagi Gang, has not yet determined. But the moment of this sentence, yet all decided. Sasaki with that with a drunk, under the eyes have reddish eyes like a pair of naughty children, could not help looking at the couple, he said: "So, you know? Support fox farm buildings are all like some of that tower is doing? "
  "Is the watch tower it."
  "That goes without saying. But watch what?"
  "Yeah let the fox run away!"
  On hearing this answer, Sasaki took over the upper body to the back, with a laugh, he was smiling in a daze to the two people who explain that the purpose is not so simple, that is to monitor the tower in January to March fox mating period, to see which of the fox completed the task, which just not completed.
  "To give birth to good little fox coat, you have a pregnant female fox is especially good thing, is to this. This is a couple of years ago, when I went to visit, listen to the treasurer said. He did not with you say that? "
  "Heard, he said."
  "You're down does not matter, so Fangzi disillusioned and can not sell something that he shot, the treasurer's probably afraid of this, so it did not say to you. No matter how you defend him, he is an old fox."
  "That nickname is the treasurer of course!"
  "Are the same, a pair of fox!"
  Sometimes weak but strong. Marriage, too, Puzhi Hagi gentle hills, once made up his mind, it will become tough and focused, stubborn people. This time, also in accordance with the large ones, and even winter January and February, in the tower to monitor fox mating the drudgery of such a silly, nor that he hesitated. He should pay is exhausted Sasa Tuotuo to full pay. Tokyo's stepmother has not discussed with the only notice a cry. But Cheng has written to his uncle's letter a detailed, but this is a decision later. Uncle's letter, the general things always were written by the aunt, this is a reply to accidentally offended.
  Thanks re: Wen health has been gradually restored, very pleased. Fox also raised the good things too. Jun Sasaki, beware of the so-called fooled, the advice can be a sense of true feeling, but when the fox is also limited and the. Management present on the intrigues, and very popular scam is really annoying. Uncle Yu Hu recently Jiangzai for water ①, and even want to get side of the line before meeting with the machine, fear of the ear is difficult to do so. Treasure health, never, never. Fangzi Department Please regards.
  This letter was sent days after the issue of the fifth Villa. Hagi Gang later learned, when his uncle did not have as clear of a ship's captain announced, went to sea.
  Not to the summer, Hagi Okazaki moved to support fox farm go. Sasaki Villa lend him the time, once said: "We thought for a long time at home this year have not been to the beach to go." But Hagi Gang know, Sasaki to take advantage of the summer to do some work on the desktop, this Villa is necessary for him , so he did not want to give people trouble by the friendship. He has been another of a empty house, or have the right to buy a. Fox hurriedly bought the support field, this is one of the reasons the idea of keeping everything.
  Move, their lives a big change. Young couple, every morning, to get up. Previously, as long as two people to do simple meals can be had, now Fangzi must first use the kitchen stove, get a big pot, received from a neighbor came to the three to do the fox feed. A wave to teach in accordance with the practice of the wheat, corn and other grains with the surface of fish cooked with Jianzhi to do, to make a Cai Yu. Feed, Ping _Set_o promised full help, the fish is straight from the Jin River all the way over there to let the contracts for fisheries _Set_o level there, and distributed to them.
  "We eat, seems to have very fragrant too!"
  "So, you want to not give the fox that he eat it?"
  "You did not rely on it!"
  After the summer, Sasaki for the first time that side from the railway came to visit when the front of the house that day and they're working, Sasaki a meeting, the first sentence is: "have turned into connoisseurs it!" "Really, did not think you still capable this. "
  Sasaki's wife led to her only son to be mill, year-old child came true, with even more surprised look said. Hagi Gang and the old left are split firewood. Always leaves the woods from behind the trees thinned down, sawn section by section, Hagi long-handled ax Gang and then swing it to split. Fangzi wearing a gray old husband's pants, his head wrapped in white towels, the firewood thirty-four as a hold, to windows down.
  "I heard the winter, to have five or six such firewood pile Caixing. Almost nothing of our own in no time. You see, just did such a point of big deal to intervene, that is it."
  Hagi Gang off thick gloves, red swollen hands out to them to see, and then hand made horn in his mouth, toward the back suddenly shouted out: "old left, break for a while and have a smoke it ! "
  Fangzi view of the occasional visitors, dropped the firewood ran over, whispered to be the mill: "deaf!"
  "Ah, no wonder!"
  They had to smile.
  Ogikubo origin shall be mill, from her end of the line straight and the face is shown in temperament, but also with the Fangzi completely different, but this did not prevent their mutual friendship that exist between husband. Sasaki and Hagi just as the character of the opposite hills and tighter integration, as they both also due to the difference between surface are attracted to each other.
  Long-awaited reunion of the women, said, asking each other to give each other to see, there are so many things, life in Tokyo talked about getting a hard up and need more effort, more strength, more Buddist enriched.
  "For example, a combined milk, now with the general approach also can not get hand friends. You gotta do good things, said the milk shop, send him things, the end also brought back a fraction of the time afterwards."
  See the goats, the milk shop to be within the mill suddenly remembered that the treasurer to highlight cheekbones. Hill's stake in the grass half-lines, it can be achieved in the context of the rope and turn, Zhang with a pair of pink eye socket a little round eyes, bleating of people are intimately cried. Child has never really left there. Hagi Gang and Sasaki homes in the Fox waiting in front of women, a man kindled a match, both of them lit a cigarette.
  "I also do not want to press on how the bank job, in the final analysis, if still hate it as barbed wire. Shut in there, counting other people's money.'m Really dry on my life can not stand. But now the thrust to the wire fox where beds the back and began to come to their job. I often think this is ridiculous. "
  "How you say that the world is nothing but some silly things. China do not like this? What made a statement that is not expanding, not war, but in the end become like this today. In their deception and rhetoric before, these foxes had Jiaqiweiba it gentlemen! "
  In order to strengthen the tone and mood for a naughty child-like, Sasaki playing a bit barbed wire, the original timid in the sand on the floor with squinted at them - on Fox, panic ran into the house go. Hagi Gangti a letter from the uncle.
  "He said, when the fox, do nothing!"
  "True. About your uncle who, for the government, military or rather, how to deceive the people were in the bottom line to know more."
  "I think the more we know the bottom line, and I feel more uncomfortable. Standing of his position, although not say, but I know that uncle for now Japan is absolutely against the war."
  "Your uncle is not so much opposed, but rather that the Navy itself against it. In this regard, the Army those guys, all I do not know the depth of the delusions of grandeur. So there is no rule of law."
  "What will become of the situation in the end? Me, the newspaper also five days later to see."
  "Europe is imminent crisis. ① Henderson ambassador to Germany in London, Berlin, back and forth between the exchanges, as if trying to stop, but Hitler used his old means to all of a sudden surprise, then everything is finished. Europe was fire, the United States will not sit idly by. That is again a world war. "
  "What a stupid man! From the last war in the lessons should be enough, but not over a quarter century ... ..."
  "Ignition can indeed take the lead in Japan, this is terrible. Many people revel in the war economy, but also a sense of the seriousness of it not. However, I believe, will one day be out of Japan and China, we make the same amount of outflow blood. Sometimes I fatalist, but for me personally, I am not willing to take up arms in this war. In order to keep them pulled me out of war, whatever crafty things, how unpromising thing, I work hard. At this point, you have a capital in! "
  "I go for you!"
  "Anyway, where you can say such things out loud, just this is very rare. If Tokyo, immediately people would say:" go with me to the Department. "
  Sasaki throw away cigarette butts, separated by a green, white birch, the goat is still there do not want to move to real children and women over there looked at. As though his son is deaf like, shouted: "Hey, I really children, here are a good thing ah! Come on! Have fun where the fox!"
  Ever since that day, less than five weeks, Hitler invaded Poland and provoked the war in Europe. Third in the winter of December, the Japanese surprise attack on Pearl Bay, the Pacific War broke out. May no longer be a planet to experience it with their blood the birth times of flood. Creation of human wisdom and everything it sank in the flood of blood, the same as if only the day and night, are now only two things - to kill and be killed. This is life, that is, philosophy is art, is the cause.
  In this era, and finally adhere to the maintenance work Hagi Fox Gang, can be said to Noah's Ark-like miraculous luck. Meanwhile, all the things they are strongly stacked in a winter kind of chaotic life, but also true and that the ark exactly the same.
  For the old left, the fox mating Ye Hao, watch tower opposite the snow-capped mountain Asama smoke, it is all about, are nothing but a phenomenon, so long as at any time to see, do not miss to become . Hagi Gang and Fang Zi with three meals a day and also to stay with the old house sitting in a chair in the hall around the stove to eat. Winter mountains stove as the center of life is lost in a fog, and just as the Earth's orbit does not leave the sun. Not only the old remain, and even then that would stretch your nose to mouth are called upon to goats and chickens, and now is a partner in this little world. In addition, multi-out from the vegetable cellar where potatoes, cabbage, radish like vegetable, on the house on the ground will freeze things, are built on the side with the quilt; day burn in wood are piled in late able to reach out to the wall; washed shirts and other personal clothing, but also with a rope hanging in the head. Fangzi in this little world, as do the fox Cai Yu, preparing food for the family, sometimes for the neighbor's A wave of women according to New magazine style beautiful work cut pants. Tailor the table is the table, but also Hagi Gang's desk. Originally, Hagi Gang for the consolidation of the room has got a little older, and even put a pen has to be mind errors, but in the second year of winter, but also be able to calmly live in such an environment. _Set_o when he joked to peace on this issue, once again stressed that: just because this is home, so to spend the winter here, so buy the house very well!
  "Downtown Tokyo, where the evacuation, so the prices rise with a very fierce. Take this house Well, now more than double the price can not buy hand. It is said that between the front of the station less than three dilapidated house and sold five thousand miles round. "
  "That can be really incredible!"
  "But have to finish off the fox, because the United States is the largest clients of it! Way, dealers also have to wash friends. Coupled with the marketing you, friends rationing, strict management and together, the more fish Shashi Hou to post ① Guarantee does not. Now, you know, spent a lot of time and money, and even half orders also can not. fox s not like goats and chickens, hay and grains alone can not cope. that will immediately affect the hair's luster Yeah! my wife what that guy said aggressive, even when people have to tighten their belts, but also raise the kind of thing to eat the expensive stuff to do! Yesterday, we had a fight it! "
  _Set_o on each level, all talk about something like that. Hagi Gangan comfort, he said, war is like the sick disaster, the heat will slowly get better for a refund, and will not fight always, advised him not to make things like too desperate.
  "You're right. In me, this is a lifelong career. So I have determined: that is their hunger, but also the idea to eat the fox. To the most when there is no way that a pair, two pairs are into, but also continue to support Fox keep when the species. say go together, or a question of money, you do not need to take off the skin to immediately go to cash, I told you different, and this difficult it! "
  "Where! Each other are the same."
  "I have a stained body odor."
  "Really? Mr Ping _Set_o There was a indeed a fox smell it! Did not you smell it?"
  "He may feel proud of what. - War sluggish confused his business, but also really a bit pathetic miles."
  "His wife said he told her, whether Sino-Japanese War and Russo-Japanese War, no marked two years, so be patient this year, will end, and will get a big win."
  "This ... ... ... ... what would happen then," Hagi Gang shook his head. However, he doubts the change than was estimated to be still too optimistic. After only one year is not over, and from then on, war is a strike it much. Although the Japanese in the past engaged in war, but rather, do not understand how it was wars. Now, the first time they knew: the use of endless oil, coal, steel, rubber, cotton and all other substances, the organized production of Hercules-style in front of the spiritual power of a simple high-spirited, in order to carry out this kinds of agitation empty issued cry, bluff and deception hiding coax, etc., are of no avail.
  Fourth year of winter, the residents of the plateau, together with the evacuation of people to come here, an increase of nearly doubled. The broken front of the station house of the baseless rumor sell high has become old, now, buy a plaster shop faded down the four half-seat room, and that number have come to similar price. Roast the kind of dual-use stoves for cooking, the price is up more scary, once a bad throw deep in the junk room in the heap are also collecting them; As it is difficult to use iron hand of the ocean made for a profile of two new Furnaces, will take four or five hundred to buy a round.
  Sasaki want to be the mill in the autumn his wife and children evacuated to the Hill in real time, in order to get a stove, but also spent a lot of twists and turns of the first. Although the school closed, but were mobilized to monitor the students go to the factory, he can not leave Tokyo. Therefore, he could only first wife to the mountains, look here, when the New Year, or to the evacuation of towns and villages in the county acted to similar plants, and occasionally look at the way to the house. Scattered in several family life, which is currently in general. Fortunately, the village has been evacuated to house dozens of residents, so the young wife and young son live in the mountains, it does not then do not worry; and has experience in the winter Hagi Gang to live in less than three ten minutes walk of the railway that side, which made him feel that it is a dependent. Women with more added each other close, and in order to really feel Mende Huang Bu Zhiyu children, are often required to Fangzi mill house to house. Asama Mountain and surrounding mountains, fields, despite its vast expanse, but the road is less than five inches of snow. In the single to take a narrow shallow ditch the snow, walk in front of the real children, and often two boots together, like skiing Side slip moving. He also likes the old left to do the same with my mother birch cane, walked to draw lines in the snow. Snow lying down in the corrugated-style place, as if with a pale blue. Mother sometimes used the same stick to his painting birds. In addition to the days of snow outside of the sky, often cloudless, a piece of the clear. In the warm atmosphere during the day, so playing to the guests, really enjoyable than summer.
  "There is not so short of food, while they probably do not think that U.S. aircraft bombed Japan's 'Florence'." Bring something home to evacuate to Nara, Hagi Gang said.
  "Then, people in the factory area is dangerous it!" Shall immediately thinks of the mill from the living area being the husband of the factory here.
  "I was Mr. Sasaki, the mill also said to be calm, can not wait to return to Tokyo to miles."
  "That is quite surprising, but children are not able to really do the kind of bold. And people like that Sasaki is usually the case, is not out of any error."
  "I said so, each time it met all comfort her."
  However, soon after the comfort of others who have become the person who was comforted.
  "Real children, or to feed the goats eat it. Hey, you get to keep the grass uncle."
  Mill to be really clever to coax children into the reactor room to the side, only two remain in the soil in the fireside room, it not only to hear in detail the disease, but also to keep true to the ward with children with go. It is said that the patients from yesterday evening, skip the fourth consecutive blood, now groggy and fell asleep. Hemoptysis is the first to stay in and the old fox carried the fox lay down fresh pot when the panic-stricken old running back to stay, the truth becomes a mute, only makes strange guttural sounds, blindly pointing Fox homes. This expression makes Fangzi surprise, she quickly ran; in the Fox house, she saw the snow in front of some scarlet spots. Hagi wearing a navy blue sweater of the hills, his long, thin body against the fence, being with a handkerchief Cazui. See Fang Zi ran exactly like the weep of his eyes and rounded, soft, brown eyes microstrip, float a delicate smile, that vision, neither sorrow, nor be dismayed, but a panned gas if children begging for forgiveness respectful gaze. Approached until the Fangzi side, he did not change the look, as if to Fangzi the Ziying like sucked into the eye, looked at her a trial of strength.
  In the back room of the ward, arrayed from the origin in the next Karuizawa hands of foreigners are now bought back the bed, install the bought from the first heating hemoptysis special stove. Compared to the dining-room, kitchen, dual-use, the old left, goats and chickens live together in the room, the even more clean, like two.
  "Oh, the original mill is to be his wife."
  Head placed ice packs, like awake, sleepy hazy's Hagi hills, carrying the window seems to sit - next to her, as the Fangzi. Although voice hoarse, but his calm face after sleep, with reddish cheeks burned, and on weekdays, and looked not much different.
  "How do you think? Fangzi just take out the ice went!"
  "Head does not hurt, and spirit better. This time may no longer attack friends."
  Then his words, to be sure the mill, said: "is it! The future, you quiet rest for some days to become friends." But in a week, not to stop hemoptysis.
  This area of the village is no doctors, no, rather, did not need medical residents and villages. With densely in the future, patients had to Kusatsu, Karuizawa area and small all go to a doctor. However, most do not charge those kind of things and spend money, but letting nature eliminated the plateau as the weeds with withered with the coming of winter the same. Later, because of the war to evacuate to a name here, animal husbandry, doctors began to practice medicine in front of the station. He is an experienced old doctor, had been the hospital in Chiba, now over to his son to continue opening. He gives the impression of good, also interested in painting, from the time of attack since last year, for the diagnosis and treatment of Hagi Gang, and their exchanges have over the relationship between doctor and patient, so it is difficult to find even the nurses, he also hard from his son There has to be. Hagi Gang mill to be going home, and often the way there. At that time, really put the children to look after a neighbor Ah Long. Fox took care of long ago by the flat of the _Set_o. Everywhere in Japan, when the fill not the belly, at any rate did not call the nearly starved to death for the fox, because the dip of the Gang of subsidies Hagi light. But the fish still can not buy no matter if your hands, often near the mine on private slaughtering, by the offal of bovine animals can also be reluctant to deal with. The level of total babbling _Set_o fox poor appetite, Ah Long often fought together.
  "Look, what this person you think that now is when? True, the U.S. plane to come and bar, to a roar then click to Fox House, Nick was happy!"
  A wave of a temper, just want to burn the wok Gulp thrown instead of rolling bombs. This day is also when the menacing noise, animal husbandry, to be led doctors came in the mill, said: "Ah Long daughter-in through your back room with use."
  Sasaki, animal husbandry and doctors do not oppose the call came, but also take the initiative to ask "how to do what, where Nara?"
  "Yes ... ah ..."
  "His weak heart, but very powerful ah."
  Only the force required to move a little mill choking throat, did not immediately reply. To the point where the disease has seriously, which she also did not expect. Animal husbandry and medical professional with his calm attitude of the line said, death is only a matter of time, and often air, rail can not operate normally, short notice, probably could not get one o'clock. Hagi had to be the mill, and his stepmother relationship Gang told a doctor. They came suddenly, it would mean that the patient declared dead.
  "Or other Sasaki came to say it."
  "Okay."
  Mr. and animal husbandry to deal with, asking about her condition, has been required to mill things. Mobility is in the eye Ma Lei Fang Zi patronize the time required to Sasa Tuotuo mill can handle something, but this time she was away, Mr., animal husbandry, the mind but also uneasy. She told the doctor to discuss such important things, which made her heart was a serious shock, but I thought I could take this opportunity to meet with her husband after a long absence, but can not help but secretly feel the joy, which in turn made her feel guilty. In this way, she even kept in the dark Fangzi feel too sorry for.
  "What is it, this is not no big deal thing."
  Sasaki came, sat in a big bed, on the disease said only these words. Then he went on a monologue: a letter to his wife for a week to go before receiving the next day, enough to wait five hours up the night train - not so much a "go", rather like a potato similar to the "loaded" into the sacks, the time is coming Kumagai, and air raid sirens sounded, a full stop in the dark for two hours, every sound a warning, become more and more like Tokyo to Tokyo, long ago , April 13 bombing of the fires, from a historical sense, have the opportunity to see this spectacular and not bad; difficult to deal with is the big day for flying fighter jets overhead, compared to that airplanes, B29 spectacular leisurely look back, in the bright blue spring sky, wings outstretched grew up, Jizhuan the propeller as if to a body wearing a glittering crown, it all looked that way symmetrical When the fleet flying when shiny silver, although the enemy, but Could it be like to watch, or even see God, this mechanical beauty of the Acropolis of Greece is really as much as a new harmonization of the United States ; and so on. He deliberately put it in a nice irony, to the misery and evil coated colors, according to this argument that he, as if no casualties as the same.
  "But, no matter how beautiful Rossi Law ① grow, the devil is always the devil. You can live in this land, in their jumping out of the loop, it is happy ah."
  "Yes ah, I'm happy." Hagi Side Gang echo replied. Then he made a sly smile, as if to say, why do you use that tone of cautious words, I had seen through. He looked at each other intently, and then in a low but very firm voice, said: "But Sasaki, specifically tell you to come, not to hear the news ah bombed Tokyo."
  "Then you say, just like me who come to Tokyo, what other things to talk about it?"
  Sasaki deliberately admit defeat to explore with the same smile, lying in bed looking at his thin pale, scattered with black hair on the forehead of the face.
  "That is quite the. But instead of listening to you talk about, I'd have something to tell you about the. But you're ... ..."
  "You mean that I get off at the beginning of a lot of nonsense Walawala? The good, then up to hear with you, - Preface less Syria."
  Rather than the patient and probing conversation between the patient, rather, they are like high school together in the years lying in bed dorm ① on the controversy. This of course is to avoid the sentimental dejected, contrived on purpose to each other, but even so, or what looked away to the hills Hagi walls. Two oceans white stacked tilted down pillows, pillow from the low-lying at the ocean to see his thin boy-like items in the Ministry of Sasaki's eyes suddenly heated up.
  "Talk about it tomorrow." Hagi Gang again dictates. "After a while again fever friends. Come tomorrow morning!"
  "Look, all right."
  "Still alive by tomorrow morning."
  Hagi Gang That made tears wetted his face, quietly floated a smile.
  Sasaki had to say: Do not say that no shadow of it! But he refrained back, stood up from his chair.
  Ward the following morning, bathed in the clear atmosphere of the sun in May Chuxun. Soft spring sun was just as plain as a small bedside table a vase, stuck Pu Liu, issued a shiny silver-gray velvet, like a little bit of that loneliness of the winter the plateau is over, the spirit of the patient appears to be better than yesterday, the original from the nose down to the chin between the traces of a micro-black beard clean shaven, thin face also appears handsome up.
  "Said this morning that you want to come, specially modified a lot." Fangzi side of the case removed a small breakfast, one side says happily. Sasaki's coming, so she played a naive spirit cheer.
  "You come as a surprise yesterday, friends." Hagi Gang also said with a smile. And then going out of the room Fangzi Huanzhu: "Fangzi, Sasaki I have something to discuss, and you can come back the afternoon, Mr. grazing. Do not let the old left to go, you better go and look, there being nothing."
  Only two people. Meanwhile, no one to speak first, then suddenly asked Hagi Gang: "the date today?"
  "九号."
  "So, we come to a full four years to the day after tomorrow, and really fast!" Dazed look up to the roof of the Hagi lime hills, soliloquy Side said. He maintained that the supine position, and then added: "I have not!"
  "Blood would have died two or three times slightly, it would not have lung disease in Japan, friends."
  "You say, I am of course happy, but we still do not deceive each other, right then. I already have a mental preparation. I'm happy you said yesterday, I said, it is happiness. That is not lies. To live here, in front of you all the time in the die, in a time like this, is already more than the so-called happiness it! "
  "So, should not their despair, anxious pursuit of Siya! At any time, lose the will to survive as a people, is cowardly. Even if you just think of Fangzi a person can not die ah!"
  "You say, I'm sorry too it!"
  They talked face to face, the face from Hagi Gang tears Susu, the Sasaki has had his own handkerchief for wiping out. Hagi Gang used intravenous protruding nails lost both hands the color of his hands wiping away his tears.
  "Excitement of poor health, or not talk about them now."
  "Since the thought, then determined to fight to live it! But you inverted image in the pursuit of something like they would rather die happy. This is not the luxury of forgiveness.",
  "Is too much to ask?" To clean the duvet on the chin is the head, chew the above case, the temporary silence up Hagi Gang nodded, and again he said, "you say this, if true Everything is so. In this war, the sleep is great here, the luxury of raising lung miles! "
  "Do not the thread of her conversation with these issues come up citizenship."
  "The patient got me to fight, not no use you?"
  "No, that is, before the same disease. We - that is, it should be used in the plural - and has been living over that way; people find it difficult, we do not feel that difficult. Of course, this is material that, in short, in social life, because we are rich, it is accounted for a large cheap. to graduate from college, can casually quit his bank job, as a pastime like to keep half of Fox, this can be in bed, are also For the same reason; and I have never done anything for them in return, just enjoy. However, such a cheap thing, of course, not always to be like this, in the end do not know when, we must pay the same price! "
  "Is not able to pay you sick?"
  In accordance with the ideological context, it should be said that disease is a must to replace the dead. Although wildly recklessly Sasaki deliberately speak, but such things, after all, difficult to export. Hagi, but he saw the eagle turned over the hills that light up the eyes. He knew he did not say exports, Hagi Gang is also understood. However, Hagi Gang said that what does not waver, and even joked: "reimbursement method, vary, there will be various. This point, I worked as bank job, know more than you."
  He also said he deeply felt: not only the individual or class to make such reimbursement, but also between States and the States to make such repayment, Sasaki said he had been out in Japan one day, it must ask the Chinese to flow through the same amount of blood, and the idea of a clock is also connected, Italy and Germany surrendered, the Japanese have enemies and the world, this day was about to come.
  "I just ① from the Manchurian Incident broke out against the war since the day, but I did not take any action. Can be interpreted as a general knowledge of these molecules Beiqie. But, have the same idea, not his own in the war killed, is losing their loved ones, whether willing or not, have been strong with a sacrifice, and I also survived even this. than that, the war situation has been predictable in the future after the defeat of the battle, stay alive countries who have to bear the pain and humiliation, I was dead, and even do not have to taste that humiliation, in fact, this is not just a luxury, but can be said to be selfish. "
  Hagi Gang talk about other people now use things like tone and the kind of calm, with day and night linger in the heart of the kind of toughness, self-management self to go on.
  Hagi Gang consent raised his eyes to like, and then look to move again on the pillow of the Pu Liu, smiled: "Maybe next year, this flower is my miles."
  Sasaki While saying he was too much afraid, but do not want to interrupt him. Sasaki know because he talked so happy, and his fantasy that reincarnation is indeed for him to love nature religious people, but also not written a line of his pen in the last verses.
  "Thank you. Because of this thing to please you, so just want to hurry up to meet you. I'm so happy. You have to wait for me to be nice mill, Fang Zi is so good woman. Please you and be like me, be kind to her. did not need such a thing is said with you. - Nara there, I would also like them to bury the hatchet. though what is not noisy planes, in short, no matter what attitude stepmother and sister I usually experience with them is not good. I would like them to apologize, please treat them kindly Fangzi. But thinking, not a biological child when the mother of fate it is deep. We should have faith each other, live in harmony ah. so I thought, I met Fangzi, too, is a fate, it can be said that fate, it can be said a man at unpredictable things. and your office so close, I think really is not fathom Jiaoren through things. for the land, neighbors Ping _Set_o for his wife, for the old left, I think it is true. I'm not somewhere else but had to come here, as neighbors, or master, began to raise fox, which is strange fate. is a group of foxes, in this sense, I think they are cute even more than previously. 三号 homes in Fox's pregnant, probably the day before yesterday, Ping _Set_o to said another one week to be born. If Fox can see Tsai was born without incident, I would die, then I can be happy it! "
  Hagi Gang little desire to achieve the final, and he lived more than two months, in the end of the war two weeks ago and died. Stepmother and sister in early June from central line to Nara Bypass here once, near Nagoya, were told some terrible images of machine gun fire after they go back. This time not even had time to notice them. Relatives to attend the funeral as the only evacuation to the next two or three people in Karuizawa, they just come out fills out, Sasaki came before the death, all things entrusted to him. This place is no crematorium. Coffins in the evening, by the level _Set_o, the old left and those who dealt in front of the station and the porters who carried to the foot of the mountain and the village head in full bloom Ku Caihua Bucket Big depressions, people dug a hole, the cross on the coffin Hang Hau, the top placed three bags of charcoal, into a pit full of round wood, and finally, cover with water on the mat. This is their arrangements for the cremation ceremony. Were supposed to lose the primary by the ignition, but also have to represent from the point of Sasaki. Women were driven back, and even burned his body Sasaki they saw smoke inside in a heap after the cover, but also to persuade others to give back. This is the local rules. He walked back with Mr. and animal husbandry, roads deep in the weeds is a dense, narrow roads and people can not have two parallel, cold dew, Chong Sheng Haw, is the fall of the mountain. There was no moon, but the stars shining, the sky light grape color, emerge with the hazy shadow Asama. Night blooming lily musk Xuan, speckled, lush patches of grass from the high to head out. This may seem a little Yaoqi beautiful flower, for this mountain fog filled the night silence increased microalbuminuria dreamy atmosphere. Hagi Gang Sasaki know very fond of this flower. Faint air waves of smoke floated, he twisted back to look around, have not see the fire, the emotion of walking in front of the animal husbandry, said: "This is what truly wild funeral, to say that Gang of Hagi it is appropriate funeral. "
  Fangzi did not happen we are worried about things. Have been worried that she will cry very tough battle, but he did not how to cry, just staring wildly silly silent, not to be strong to pull her mill, even the rice does not want to eat. Even in the end of the war spread to every corner of the broadcast, people meet, talk about it all the time, she is completely indifferent, as if the matter had also forgotten the war. However, she did not want her husband dead, not forgotten the oath, nor is it dishonest, but not follow her husband's will, to abandon the remains here until the official funeral will be held in Tokyo time. Her husband's death, like thunder lightning tree, gave her a heavy blow to the body limbs, although the same, but the interior is like an important part of the machine, like a broken fuse, leaving a basket case has been light, and as scientific way up the robot assembly of complex words can not say the same Fangzi can only say "yes", "no" and other phrases. In essence, you can abide by the oath that she is dead along with her husband; because only one remaining from that there is no physical change Xingshi Bale.
  "Yes the situation a bit bad, Fangzi not happen accident? Yesterday, her bedroom window one day it stops."
  "It is no surprise, but also mentally tough than the lung miles."
  Sasaki couple even privately about these any more.
  Tokyo house, in the May 15 raid in the burned. The stepmother also lived in Nara as usual there. Hagi Gang careful with his banker-like detailed arrangements for the Fangzi that all that was entrusted to Sasaki. But the volatile situation after the war, these problems need to negotiate things, not so easy to run. Therefore, we look forward to Hagi Sasaki uncle Gang Hua will return. Currently, only know that he is wounded because of the convalescent hospital in Taiwan, the thought that he would not come back soon, but will not be back in February birch, and suddenly Daoshan Zhong.
  "Ah, I thought what a what!"
  Open the door from the inside to be mill, taken aback, in the same tone to the room shouted: "Fang Zi, Fang Zi, uncle coming!"
  Recent Fangzi like bed a few years, finally to save the lives of patients, thin body was thin and long, her toe open, walked out of staggering pace, with deep down in the dark round eyes, a loss uncle lost his left arm looked at by the mill to be helped off the boots in the back. Hagi is almost the same stature Gang, face looks very much like the uncle, with difficulty into the back room, looking down at her, said: "Oh, Fang, Shinichi have suffered ah!"
  Long time never heard of the term of endearment, no different from her husband's call. She did not answer or greeting, then stumbled uncle flew to wearing the suit he does not wear the chest, dying Gang released in Hagi had not burst into loud tears.
  "This is how you, how is this matter, to be strong and more!"
  Fangzi not stop crying, do not want to leave his uncle. Been frozen, including the heart, the feelings of all the sorrows, as if in this moment turned into tears. Uncle just like coaxing general, and with the long time required to mill the Fangzi endless sobbing pulled back room to go.
  From this day to catch, Fangzi life slowly revived. The atomic bombing of Hiroshima who lost his wife and daughter, family, and I also own uniforms and with a social waste, lonely old people will be reduced horizon, but also find a new life.
  Villa finally going to be back to his mill, often came to see them. Hagi Gang took over his uncle's work during his lifetime, Fangzi also the same as the CI Hou Gang Hagi, kindly wait on his uncle, Ping _Set_o neighbors have started to raise foxes as Hagi Gang taught the same time, teach the elderly. Sixty-year-old veteran will, obedience, obedience to all the guidance, as a new start exercising sailors from the deck from the same brush. He put the fox and then come back.
  Said the old left his uncle said the same thing. This defeat, the generals and the country people formed a partnership.
  Intervet ① in the dense sea battle, he was blown from the bomb under the bridge down, but not dead, alive. Now come to this mountain, took over half did not live to his nephew left for raising the age of Fox Business, he quietly submit to the fate of this incredible. Just as Fang Zi Xing Shi is alive, he is nothing but fighter planes bombed the airport, or only red rust-stained steel wreckage of the munitions factory. But when he and the old deaf ears all the time is still left with a loudspeaker shouting orders to the old sound.
  "This is what has useful ah!" He laughed alone ha ha.
  Ping _Set_o to treat neighbors as wildly cousins will treat the old birch, which made him very proud. Meanwhile, the U.S. military stationed in Japan, is estimated Silver Fox will also be sold, which made him very happy. He talked with Hagi Gang, from the island of Sakhalin after a fox has been painstakingly raised, again and again about the old will. Hua Crushed out his cigarette ration, followed by suction aspiration of the soil local people from Angelica and crushed leaves of Polygonum grass, gentle listening. He said that when he was stationed as a young military officer in the U.S., heard the first gold from the United States Ambassador to enter the Silver Fox to help things. Ping _Set_o heard, could not help but awe of.
  "Yes Well, you say the fox is not completely for the fate of myself."
  Since then, Ping _Set_o to often use 'you "to refer to Cheng. Every time I hear, Betula always block that, do not use this name. Ping _Set_o's wife, Ah Long, also greatly opposed to:" Look, you What this person, now the emperor, like we are related to you, Mr. Hua also control what your name really unbearable! Despite the flattering you, he is not like Hagi Gang Master, and then would like to take a lot of money, it can not do it! "
  Winter came, over the years, and entered the fox mating period. Jiaochun public fox, from morning till night, until the middle of the night, breaking twenty degrees below zero cold, constantly call him. Surveillance, after the names as it is, morning, leaving the old, the afternoon is birch. To shift, Hua Fang Zi to him earlier are invited to open for lunch, eating out of the house immediately, from the watch tower above the old to stay under the DPRK, with shouting orders to the voice cried: "the old left, and come on down!"
