Hume is an honest man.

Whether they are Americans or Japanese, whoever occupies Manila has nothing to do with him.

He just wants to live well with his family.

When the Americans come, he is loyal to the Americans.

When the Japanese came, the object of his allegiance naturally became the Japanese.

Living on is better than anything else.

As for colonies, freedom, etc., in Hume's opinion, they were too far away from himself.

However, what worries me is that my son has joined some kind of organization.

That is against the Japanese.

The whole family will suffer!

Hume tried to persuade his son countless times, but Ruth would not listen to his words at all.

How could it happen?

Hume sighed and returned home.

But when he got home, he found a strange young man waiting for him.

"He said he was a friend of Ruth," Hume's wife whispered.

Son’s friend?

Don't you belong to some kind of resistance organization?

"Are you a friend of Ruth?" Hume asked cautiously.

Xiaozhong smiled and nodded.

"Ruth hasn't been home for a few days. Where is he now?" Hume asked quickly.

"Go out and talk."

Xiaozhong stood up and walked out without even looking at him.

…

"You work in Warehouse No. 7?"

Xiao Zhong lit a cigarette and asked slowly.

Hume nodded.

Xiaozhong took out a few photos and handed them over.

"This is?"

Hume took it and glanced at it, his expression suddenly changed.

In the photo, it is my son.

However, the son in the photo was tied up and there were even scars on his face.

Hume only had one son. Seeing his son like this, Hume was frightened: "What do you want to do? What do you want me to do?"

"As long as you do what we tell you, your son will definitely not be harmed. Come with me."

Hume followed him numbly and got into a car.

I absolutely cannot let my son get hurt at all.

"There is a bag at the back." Xiao Zhongdan said calmly, "That's for you."

Hume opened the bag carefully.

Inside, are three time bombs.

"I will teach you how to use them." Xiao Zhong said without looking back, "You put them in the warehouse."

Hume understood it instantly.

The other party wants to blow up Warehouse No. 7!

"No, no!" Hume looked pale and kept shaking his head: "This will cause my whole family to be killed by the Japanese. No, no."

"No." Xiao Zhong smiled: "Put the bomb, you leave, and then I will arrange for you and your family to escape from Manila together, and you will come back after the Japanese are defeated.

Hume, you have no choice, promise me, or watch your son die."

Seeing that Hume had not yet agreed, Xiao Zhongdan said calmly: "You can leave now, and I will never stop you. Early tomorrow morning, Ruth's body will appear at your doorstep."

Hume sat there blankly, saying nothing.

Xiaozhong didn't say much and waited for him calmly.

After a long time, Hume opened the car door and really left.

However, when leaving, he carried the bag Xiao Zhong gave him.

…

Hume got up early in the morning, just like every other day.

His wife, without thinking too much, just prepared breakfast for her husband as usual.

Hume thought for a long time last night.

No matter what, we must rescue our son.

Even if you risk your own life for it.

After breakfast, he picked up the bag and said, "Get ready. We may go back to other cities to stay for a few days."

His wife was startled, and before she could ask, Hume had already left the house.

…

"Mr. Hume."

Takei, the director of Warehouse No. 7, smiled when he saw Hume: "You always come so early."

He is the Japanese who appreciates Hume the most.

For the entire power system of Warehouse No. 7, it is enough for Hume to be here alone.

He must make good use of Hume.

"Ah, yes, Mr. Takei." Hume said respectfully: "The circuit in warehouse No. 5 was not repaired yesterday. I will come earlier so that warehouse No. 5 can operate normally."

"Don't work too hard, Mr. Hume." Takei smiled broadly: "If all people were like you, then I would be able to worry less."

"Ah, by the way, Mr. Takei." Hume seemed to suddenly remember something: "The wiring in warehouse No. 5 was built by Americans. It is too old and I need to completely replace it.

It's really troublesome to check every time it comes in and out, and I'm worried that I won't be able to replace it today."

Takei must have understood: "I will call warehouse No. 5 in a moment. You can come and go as you please today."

As he said that, he patted Hume on the shoulder: "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Hume."

…

Hume never expected that he would be so calm.

Blow up the arms warehouse!

But for the sake of his son, he had to force himself to do this.

He has been working diligently all morning.

When he saw that he was eating lunch, the Japanese who was assisting him reminded him.

"Ah, I brought my own food."

Hume opened the lunch box: "I'll eat here, and I'll hurry up later."

The Japanese also know that Hume is a diligent man and have no doubt about it.

As soon as the Japanese left, Hume's heart suddenly started beating wildly.

When he came in for the second time, he finally brought three bombs in quietly.

He is very familiar with everything here.

Once warehouse No. 5 explodes, it will quickly detonate all nearby warehouses.

By then, the entire Warehouse No. 7 will be plunged into a sea of ​​explosions and flames!

And all of this was done by myself.

He carefully placed the three bombs one by one.

After pressing the timed detonator, his heart relaxed a little.

…

"Mr. Hume, where are you going?"
