My father fled in a hurry and didn’t even have time to say goodbye. He only took a quilt with him. I never saw him again. Years later, I made several guesses about what had happened to him. One thought was that he had been caught by the Japanese and hadn’t survived the grueling life of an enslaved laborer. The second guess was that he had joined the Communist Eighth Route Army and possibly had died on the battlefield. I didn’t think that there was any possible chance that my father would have become a bandit, since he had always been an honest and timid person.
I was the only patient left. I spent three months in the hospital ward. After recovering, I wanted to go back to the army where I belonged. The hospital leader persuaded me to stay and work for them, since he knew I was a medic. “You can make the revolution anywhere. We need medical staff anyway, so why not just stay here? Besides, your 13th Brigade is faraway south now. ” he said to me. I thought that sounded reasonable and agreed to stay. But I didn’t want to work in the Fourth Medical Unit where I had almost died.
Japanese became the official language while the Chinese language was forbidden in school. Since a Japanese inspector only came to school to check up on the students once a week, many Chinese teachers, who resented the education aimed at enslavement, were reluctant to teach Japanese and secretly taught Chinese in the class when the inspector was away. When he came to school we would quickly hide our Chinese textbooks. I remember clearly the day when the inspector, a middle-aged, short, viciouslooking man with whiskers, came to check up on us.
