When I went to college, I had five roommates, all of them. My birthday last week, five people all over the country came to Beijing, took the opportunity to return to a poly.
There's a buddy, with his wife and children. The young men read high school and read famous schools in Shanghai.
Eating more than ten, the young man pulled the chair in the corner of the room, opened the bag and started the problem.
I said, how do you make this child so tired?
He did not speak, the man himself said: "not a good school, two years can only participate in the college entrance examination, it may be a idiot."
After scolding the son, his father told me the current big city education disdain chain.
In high school, a class of dozens of children, more than half of the exam abroad, the rest of the college entrance examination. Organic will go abroad to look down on the national college entrance examination.
This is not two samples when we go to college, one looks down on two, and two look down on the specialist.
I asked the man, then I would be relieved to get out of age.
He said he was not at ease, but it had to be sent, and the foreign countries were better than at home.
I said that's not sure - look at the way his son writes the homework, and stop it.
I have several friends back, when screenwriter, do show, there is a written public - every day lives to work overtime, no difference with the domestic study.
They say, "foreigners" have been out for a few years and think they are more like "Chinese".
It reminds me of my great grandfather a 1922 case investigation, the deceased was a returned student, just to find a job, muddleheaded slaught'red, death thriller.
Great grandfather looking at one month, to the murderer, the investigative process in nocturnal notes.
With other records are not the same, he checked the case, also interviewed the murderer's family, in the case of later wrote a follow-up survey on the 1000.
He wrote:
"There is a lot of impulses to kill. Impulse, is because of bitterness. It is a bitterness, force, non handedly relieves."
The following is the original story I arranged according to my grandfather's survey notes and interviews.
"Nocturnal nocturnal" is a note from my grandfather, Jin Mu, who records the story of his night Voyager survey from 1911 to 1928. My home in the Kim family, these stories will be organized into the vernacular, told everyone to listen to.
Case name: Blood handprint case
Site of the case: the back door of the New World Mall (near today's Xicheng District Oriental Hotel, Xuanwu traditional Chinese medicine hospital)
Time of the case: February 28, 1922
Recording time: the end of June 1922
At the beginning of the early February, two early in the morning, I walked out of the South Gate of the new world mall. I had a smoke in my hand and looked across.
No one on the street, six points should be de barber shop was closed, rotating lamp red white and blue light was dazzling.
I'm waiting for a weird thing to happen.
Chen Yingde, the boss of the daytime hairdresser, came to see me, he was the Baodi hometown of Xiao Bao. He said the store out of the strange, in the evening, there will be blood fingerprint color turn lights, very terrifying.
It's clean in the morning, and it will appear at night again, for seven days, every day.
The tricolor lantern is a symbol of the hairdresser's industry, which is extended to China. Mention of columnar hairdressing industry originated in 1506 as a sign of bloodletting Medical Book: the top brass sink for a leech, the bottom of the tank for collecting blood; and the pillar of the red and white striped from medieval barber washed bandage hanging in the post drying move, the wind of the the bandage wrapped around each other to reverse, post. (pictures were taken in the four hairdresser's)
Not only is the blood fingerprints, but also out of several "sworn revenge".
Have a shave shave the apprentice cinnabar (blood) is a barber shaved, then shaved eyebrows, finally Chen Yingde also planted, and the guests quarreled, also take the doings of ghosts and gods razor blade to scratch his thumb.
For twenty years the barber, razor early with his fingers like, how could take back?
Chen Yingde said he had a jump on his right eye, and he knew it was bad. After three days of jumping, it was a great murder, and there must be an accident.
The barber shop is opened in Xiang Chang Road, just opposite the "big world" of Beijing, the new world mall. In the six year of the Republic of China (1917), when the store opened in November, four thousand or five thousand people bought tickets every day.
After the stampede, the police hall was under the plaintext, requiring no more than three thousand people to enter the field every day. The barber's shop has been stained with the light of the mall, and the business has been very red.
There was a lot of freshness, little wandering, and the end of the year, and the garden of the top floor had been sealed for several months. By the beginning of this year, three thousand tickets, originally limited to the new world, could not be sold out.
Following the "big world" in Shanghai, Beijing built a new world mall in the new city of Xiang factory in 1917. This four story building is provided with a boat shaped restaurant, cafe, mirror and elevator, all was the most strange things. Figure for the mall photos and newspaper "published 1920" Shun mall sale advertising.
Chen Yingde said it was not so simple.
He heard a rumor that the top floor was sealed because a young man jumped from the building and broke the "pulse" of the mall, so the business was not as good as it was.
The young man is more evil is killed in a barber shop in front of the door, Chen Yingde worried that the blood fingerprint is dead.
I heard on the floor laughing, I often go to the open-air cafe, a fence and guards, have not heard of people killed, even if someone jumping across the street, and then how to break the barber shop in front.
The appearance of blood handprints can only be a mischief. I promised to help him find out the pranks.
After one night, all the smoke in my pocket was smoked, and the yawns were yawned one after another, and the barber didn't happen.
Was walking back, behind suddenly came two shout, also called the sentence "I fuck".
A look back, the distant trees in the rock, vaguely see two figures, not tall. I chase the past, they ran into the alley, not a shadow.
Back to the place just before, it was noticed that the ground was wet, and the light of the street lamp was reversed.
Under the old locust tree lying a man wearing a suit, two red eyes staring at me, it's eyelids.
The neck open a big hole, the blood flow on the forehead, the hair has been torn off, revealing the scalp, head is bald behind several blocks. The broken hair was sprinkled on his face, and some of them were stuck in the eyes.
I shouted to the policeman on duty, he was scared and back a few steps foot in a small piece of skin with blood, I said I'm afraid the eyelids, policeman on duty to sit on her hat, trembling asked me what happened.
For the period of the Republic of China the policeman on duty when the Republic of China incense factory, as the center of the Road Commercial Plaza et al concentrated areas are equipped with booth.
After explaining the situation, I made a written record with the police and left the address and business card.
Back home, it's more than three. The head can have dizzy spells a close your eyes, eyes, are the two red eyes.
Sleep in the afternoon, to the downstairs noodle, ate two bowls of hot boiled mutton noodles, that come around.
Boil mutton surface is old Beijing Home Dishes, "boil" is actually put the food into boiling water boiled slightly.
Wang Lianglai looked for me and said that the outside two district police had caught a suspect and let me go over to see if I could identify it.
The identity of the body has been found out that, about thirty, called Wu Yueqi.
The cause of death is a fatal injury on the neck, a little trace of struggle, and the eyelids and hair were cut and pulled away shortly after death. The time of death was about five hours after I found the body.
Wang Liang said, in the body of the right pants pocket police found the oriental hotel room key.
The waitress at the front desk said Wu read Qi lived in 302 days three days ago, ordered five days' room, and also told her that he was an expert in law. He was going to work in Nanyuan, and had the opportunity to invite her to fly.
The Orient Hotel completed in February 19, 1918, is located in the New District of Beijing road incense factory was the center of today, Xicheng District Wan Ming Road No. 11. It's a western style hotel with toilets, lights, fans, hot and shower hot water, and telephone. Lu Xun, Guo Moruo, Ba Jin, Lao She and other cultural celebrities all lived here.
The police found Wu Yueqi's trunk in the room inside, except for a few books, only some personal clothing, did not find the air Nanyuan coach appointment.
Wang Liang smiled, the Wu Yueqi is probably not what the experts, still a swollen face, pretend, box not as valuable, not enough room.
The car driver of the hotel testified, and the day before Wu Yueqi died, he went to the barber's shop to pick him up. He saw a big fight between Wu Yueqi and his boss, and he was bombarded.
The boss was waving a razor, flushed, eyes bulging, and Wu Yueqi desperately.
In the period of the Republic of China, the Oriental Hotel had 7 cars, which were specially delivered to the guests.
Speaking of which, two police escorted a person over and asked me not to see him last night. The man's face is white, the fish is swollen and his nose is red.
It's Chen Yingde, the boss of the barber shop.
Chen Yingde's two meaty hand shaking, Lang Lang sound of handcuffs. I saw the eyes, tears, words to his mouth, police stare, swallow.
I laughed and shook my head, saying I didn't see him. The police frowned and asked again, and I said I didn't see it.
I did not see the face of the two figures last night, but both were not tall and thin. And familiar with the Hutong terrain, I went through the past and disappeared.
Wang Liang came to tell me, just let Chen Yingde go to see the corpse, went to the morgue door, he legs, two policemen pulled, he freaked out early.
"Look, grinning face, brush on the white mouth, absent-minded, shouting" GuiTiTou ", not unlike what can be under the ruthless hand murder and eyelid."
I nodded, said the blood fingerprint, I know Chen Yingdeming last night squatting there, also specially in the vicinity of murder, which can not be justified.
Wang Liang nodded and shook his head. "But the police found an old razor from Chen Yingde. There was dark brown bloodstain on the hilt. I couldn't miss it by myself.
This is the old style razor in the Republic of China.
Chen Yingde said that he had left his razor hand in the first two days, and I told Wang Liang that the blood might have been left at that time.
I made a guarantee, the police agreed to let go, but he told Chen Yingde not to run around and come back at any time to cooperate with the investigation.
At the police station, Chen Yingde walked or wobbly, and I took him all the way back to the barber's shop.
The barber shop rose last year and redecorated it.
The wall with black and white tiles, twelve chair line two line, the chair is opposite the rectangular mirror, mirror with white lace. The dresser and furniture is old, is used in foreign goods.
The picture is the Western barber shop during the period of the Republic of China. Divided into "to" four levels, of which two Yuan Heng barber shop employees seven or eight people, a senior hairdresser there are fifteen monthly income of six yuan.
The heating room open, guys sit at the door, five or six barber sitting in a chair sigh, uniform is a white shirt, one with a knife and scissors for another haircut.
Two guys jumped to his feet, for me and Chen Yingde tea, said the morning investigation team to catch a person, all the guests away.
Mouth dudunangnang, February 2-emergence, originally is the best business, the police rushed to the mix.
The first time Chen Yingde door to the root of incense, playing God is empty, inside the worship of God is not in the barber.
Two cups of tea drink, Chen Yingde face the color return, said he and Wu Yueqi fight.
At three p. m. The day before yesterday, Wu went into the barber's shop. Chen Yingde saw him with wax, wear good fit suit, also spray perfume, that was a well-dressed man, dare not neglect, personally go into battle.
Haircut, shampoo, shaving a down, Wu Yueqi very satisfied, hand wipe the hair, in front of the mirror to turn, Nigel praising the partial cut well, sort of Barry (Paris).
A suit head. The demonstration chart is Wang Demin (academician of the Chinese Academy of engineering, oil development expert, the founder of Chinese oil field Stratified Mining and chemical oil flooding technology).
Chen Yingde a happy, ready to give him something in the best of spirits, "hole".
"Drill" is the eyelids over, with a razor in the eye gently scraping, to eyesight. This is Chen Yingde from a Baodi teacher to learn the skills, usually only regular customers and guests who will play.
Chen Yingde's razor just next to the eyelids, Wu Yueqi jumped up from his chair and shouted.
Chen Yingde pulled him to explain, two people move hands, hit the table legs, rickety wooden God Xi, Luo progenitor like fell, hit Wu Yueqi in the head.
Wu Chi Chi picked up and threw it down to the ground. Luo Zu's neck broke, his head fell down and rolled to the side.
"Shave his head for half his life, without this gas." But the Luo Zu head smashed, I can give him?" Chen Yingde said he worried with the razors Bang he hands out, that's when hurt.
Chen Yingde is the progenitor of origin, Luo Luo Gang Zu is titoujiang God, insult Luo He also suffered insult than fathers.
According to legend, Luo Zu is hairdressing industry founder, also called Luo Zhenren, due to the emperor saved many barber barber, who was the patron deity. The day of the 13th day of the seventh month of the Chinese lunar calendar is the birthday of Luo Zu, and the barber of the whole city of Beijing will be celebrating on this day.
I asked Chen Yingde to call him at the police station "GuiTiTou" is what mean?
Chen Yingde said "GuiTiTou" is not Wu Yueqi alopecia, alopecia areata, after the death of the head was bald several blocks, eyelids cut, only now, this is against Luo Zu.
He said, his hands clasped together, thanks to a few day.
The barber and man was shrunken, terrified, man also learned Chen Yingde action worship days.
I just gave a person a hair cut, thin, deep eyes, the same age as I am.
I took him down the razor handle of this knife is not new, but the more general than the blade sharp, like a new blade for blade.
I gave him a razor, sitting on the chair, looked up and stretched out his neck, and asked if he could give me a shave? In a separate side.
For the period of the Republic of China the barber's chair and shaving tools. (pictures were taken in the four hairdresser's)
Chen Yingde quickly nudged him with his elbow, "Xiao Fang, Kim's." Then smiled and told me proudly, "barber shave, technology is first-rate, also stay over the ocean.
Chen Yingde greeted the man with a hot towel, patted the shoulder of the small square and whispered. The small side opened the drawer, took out a box of shaving powder, sprinkled it on the brush with water, and began to ring on my chin.
When I asked him to shave, knife like new, how to wear?
Fang paused and said sharpening is using the old technology, how to find such a stone, what is learned, grinding, said you do not know.
Pointing to the wall, a belt was hung, and then, only to say the knives, I used the skin of the horse's buttocks.
A small hand pull belt, another hand on fast off, and then turn left again, and it was repeated several times.
The small side said that the razor, the blade has no burr, shaving and slippery, careless cut, do not know pain.
The knife cloth, also called the asylum cloth, is an auxiliary tool for the old haircut razor, which is mostly made of raw cowhide and canvas. Is used to maintain the razor blade. Shave before the razor in the cloth swinging a knife on the back of the "swing", can remove the burr on the edge, the more sharp blade.
Just then, the mirror, the door stood two small cloth coat wear Tsing Yi, fifteen baby face, six years old, looked crafty and sinister. The hand that is lying on the glass, the little finger of the left hand is less.
React, whirled, two men staring at me, I just want to get up, chin Ying in the blade, a blow to the face, take out a blood.
Small quickly with tissue on the wound, bent down to apologize, I interrupted, called the sentence "it is according to the blood fingerprint", shouting chased out, two men ran away.
Chen Yingde also cried, and the barber and the man rushed out and followed me.
I ran to the street, grabbed one back, he turned over a razor. As I flashed, a carriage passed through, and the earth squinted. When the soil was scattered and then looked, the two had disappeared.
The chariot of the period of the Republic of China, when the carriages were used more to carry the firewood.
Pick up the razor, worn smooth wood handle, the knife carved vague words, has a clear view.
The small square first chased, the nose tip is all sweat, ask me the couple?
I said I ran and asked him if he knew the razor in my hand.
The small side of the eye, say no, and the store is different.
When a group of people came, Chen Yingde gasped for breath of air, took a razor, that knife is the older generation of barber, is now rarely used.
He thought for a moment, said there are several West flyover tiaozi will use.
As the saying goes "tiaozi - a hot", refers to the past and a barber pole, a head of a copper wash basin, below is a small fire, the other end is a drawer, can sit "shoot a barber".
The small side then asked me, how do you know that the blood handprints were the two of them?
I said I saw the blood fingerprints on the lampposts, the left ones, and the little fingers on the upper part were missing. Just now, at the barber's door on the glass, one of them had a short hand and little finger, which is just the left hand.
Man with blood fingerprints are they ghosts, is certainly jealous barber shop business is good.
The two boys are round cut, head is not high, is like the back of the death of Wu Yueqi the night I saw the figure. Chen Yingde asked me, is the blood stamp and the murder of the same gang?
I find that they know that you know that several tiaozi live?
Chen Yingde nodded.
The second day, I and Chen Yingde and two man a block to the west of the bridge, the alley was us over and over, most of the room stinking, the door is not locked inside, dirty and messy, with real feathers (beggars live almost).
Chen Yingde said he had lived here before, and a dozen people were squeezing in a room, eating and drinking and lazara all in one piece.
The entrance of a house on a drum, inside a dark water. One smell, the smell of blood, look carefully, there are a few chicken hair floating on it.
I dug in with a shot to the wall, cover, out of a dark red bloody handprint. Don't look like a three color turn on the light?
A few people nodded all the wrong.
Chen Yingde and I were sitting at the door, and the man hid the way out of the Hutong. Wait until dark, footsteps near, two round buzz back. It didn't run off this time, and Chen Yingde and me were caught on the left.
Open the flashlight, two doll faces, it is the two guys on the glass.
The man pressed the two of them on the ground, and the indignation of a small finger said that the business had been robbed of the barber's, "sometimes half a month can only be in the middle of the month."
I asked him why according to blood fingerprints, he glared at me and turn lights the barber's not good stuff, can't stop, the wealth to the barber shop, the barber said they heard "severed" (the destruction of Feng Shui).
According to the blood fingerprint is to give the barber shop strokes off bad luck, Chen Yingde.
"The night of Wu Yueqi's death, why were you both there?" I asked the two round of speculation.
Two people very stubborn, only that they did not kill people, do not know what other. One of them stared at me. "I think you are more like a murderer. We see you. Why do you doubt us?"
Chen Yingde was silent for a long time, with a sigh, let man let go, said before he is running the flyover, can understand, if they are willing to follow him back to the barber shop, you can do.
Buzz round looked at each other, stood up and patted on the earth, a little stunned. Hesitation, or shake the head.
Chen Yingde asked why they didn't want to. They looked at me and went back. I said I was relieved. I knew you didn't kill.
The older the buzz round hesitated, "not afraid of you, is afraid of the barber."
"Which barber?" I asked.
"Shave you for that."
That night, found the body before they bumped into a man, face a little familiar, like a barber Chen Yingde barber shop. All the time can't think of who, that day back to the barber's peeking is to make sure of this.
The man they say is a small square.
Chen Yingde is muddled, the small side is a murderer? I touched my jaw and said that I could not completely confirm it, and I was very concerned that his razor blade was new.
Can not long ago Chen Yingde told me that the store just from the number and entered a batch of razor, you don't need to change the blade.
The second day back to the hairdresser, the man said that last night the small square hurried, said that the family had urgent affairs, suddenly to take the train back home Hunan.
The little side called Fang Sichao, and came to the hairdresser for three months. Chen Yingde and others only knew that he had studied in France before, and could say a few words of French. He did not live with the barber, and he was not familiar with anyone.
The only hobby is to write and draw on the book, and not to let people see it. The man said he had a sneak glimpse of something like a car steamer and something like that.
Wang Liang went to the front door west station to inquire. There were too many stations to stop. It was hard to know if Fang Sichao had a car. The express line Jinghan a week from the first time, this week's early start, the fastest next week.
Zhengyang west station, also known as the former West Station, is the Beijing Hankou railway in Beijing end point station was built in December 1900.
A big living man disappeared out of thin air.
I got a sign in the "daylight", and I wrote the name of the above. I also posted a photo, saying he was missing, and I was looking for someone to know him. At the top, I wrote the phone and address at home, and stressed that there was a reliable message.
The picture is an inspiration for the people of Nanjing in the period of the Republic of China.
There were a lot of people on the phone, but they were all the people who ran the rewards.
A week passed, and the phone was gone.
Wang Liang said I was busy, why should a guy right kill, makes no sense at all, said I was a bad case for investigation, people would love to see the worst comes to the worst.
I didn't refute his head back and forth, is Fang Sichao to the scene I shave. Is the injury on the chin, is it really an accident?
It was half a month after receiving the telephone from the Nanyuan air coach.
The phone is a young student surnamed sun, speak with a Fujian accent in the dining room, saw the newspaper. He said that the ideas in the newspapers were so long as their new maintenance technicians.
But the man surnamed Wu, not called Fang Sichao, asked me if I would mistake the name.
I told him to describe this master of Wu carefully, he said, thin, deep eyes, close to the back, do not love to speak, the more like a person.
I asked what, called Master Wu said: "Sun Xueyuan Wu Yueqi", my palms sweat.
When I put down the phone, I dialed again Wang Liang's phone and told him what sun cadets had said on the phone.
Wang Liang said, the police did not find the air Nanyuan coach appointment in Wu Yueqi's room, then thought he was an idiot, fabricated identity, may offer to Wu Yueqi, let Fang Sichao away.
Fang Sichao did not disappear, and he served in the aviation church with Wu Yueqi.
In order to prevent me not to act rashly and alert the enemy's death, Wu Yueqi told sun students, just to say that I want to visit him, Wang Liang found a motorcycle police cars, and I went straight to the Nanyuan navigation education.
In the early Republic of the Republic of China, the car was called the motorcycle, and the motorcycle was called the two wheel motorcycle. A police motorcycle appearance with the ordinary two wheeled motorcycle is no different, usually equipped with a loudspeaker, loudspeaker for arrest and command.
Nanyuan from Beijing ten kilometers, on the outskirts of the road is not easy, a dusty road, spent 1.5 hours to get.
It was registered at the guard's office in the Aviation Institute, and the motorbike was opened to the airport.
One side of the airport is a barracks. The soldiers of the Beiyang army are training, and the other side has built a factory shed. The gate is lined up, with seven or eight light blue biplanes and three or four deep gray transport planes.
The Beiyang government set up an aviation school at the former site of Beijing Nanyuan barracks headquarters. In 1913, the trainees were selected from the army, and the Beiyang Government disappeared in 1928. Nanyuan aviation school was withdrawn. Nanyuan aviation school school for 15 years, a total of 4 graduates of flight 158 students, this group later became the backbone of the national and provincial government run by the air force.
The middle of the track there was a small plane frame of yellow soil, only a two seat. Wang Liang was very excited and said he knew it. It was a British trainer, called love.
The head of the machine and the wing of the wing stood two skilled workers, wearing dark blue work clothes and being inspected.
The picture is the British Efro (Avro) -504k trainer. The 504 aircraft is the RAF trainer. It is also widely used as a fighter, and produced more than 8000 units in the first World War.
One of the faces was blocked by a wooden propeller. He moved a few leaves, the blade turned, the faster, the engine came to the engine and rumbled.
One side of the master loosened the arm of the wing. The plane swayed and slid forward for a while, slowly leaving the ground and flying.
I recognized Fang Sichao at one glance, changing his hairstyle and turning it into a suit, but it was the same as before, with a deep eye and a camel back. He looked at me, took off his gloves, and was calm on his face.
When the police arrested him, he was standing in the place without struggling or running away, holding his hands as if they were waiting for them. Wang Liang started the motorcycle, and we went back.
Suddenly, the plane came to a circle and rushed towards us. Wang Lianggang began to wave to the plane, and soon realized that the plane was out of control, and it was going to crash quickly.
The motorcycle runs at the fastest speed. After the airplane is catching up, the voice of the propeller is bigger and bigger. Wang Liang has a sharp turn. Behind the crash, the airplane hit the ground and exploded.
Then a worker in the mechanic witnessed the process of the plane crash: the first fire on the right wing, the smoke rose from there, and the fire became bigger and burned to the tail.
The whole plane was a big ball of fire, the head of the plane hit the lawn, and it exploded in a moment.
After Fang Sichao's arrest, he explained the process of killing Wu's killings, but was vague about why it was killing and said he was not clear.
Wu Yueqi took off his suit jacket into the barber shop, Sichao Party took the dress down, pocket out a folded paper.
Fang Sichao glanced at the open, air is taught the letter of appointment. While people do not pay attention, he put the paper into his pocket. The name of the evening appointment from the hotel to pick up Wu Yueqi to kill out.
For the period of the Republic of letters of appointment of Daxia university.
The police found Wu Yueqi in the air to teach the letter of appointment, the hotel staff confirmed he came to Wu Yueqi.
I went to the prison to interview Fang Sichao, and he refused to see it. Inquire around, contact his family by telephone. His big brother knew that after Fang Sichao's murder, he was silent for a long time, and he cried at the other end of the phone.
Later he came to Beijing to visit him, we see one side, fangdage handed me a dark cloth.
There was a broken and rotten French version of the confession, three written diaries, and a stack of ten - centimeter thick letters. It's all Fang Sichao's belongings.
Big brother said, what I want to know, maybe it's in it.
The picture is the French version of "confession" in 1912.
In addition to diaries and letters from home, I also turned a lot of old newspapers, and spent several months. In Fang Sichao's past, there was a history of unknown origin.
In nine years (1920) at the beginning of the year, Fang Sichao and a lot of knowledge youth, want to study abroad, but the home economy is not well-off, and did not go to the group of students studying in the US boxer indemnity.
At this time, they got a message: To study in France, can work half to read.
Although France is no more than the United States, but it is also western, the level of science and art is also high, and at that time is fighting, and the value of Fa Lang is low, so long as we can pay six hundred yuan per year, we can go.
At that time, Fang Sichao was twenty-eight years old, married for three years, and had a two year old son.
At the beginning, the father did not allow him to go abroad, his hunger strike, mother love dearly, her dowry and case-dough all out to seek his wife, brother and sister borrowed six hundred dollars to raise tuition is so last.
Party Sichao diary said, and he with more than 300 people in Hunan youth.
I checked the information. From the beginning of eight years of Republic of China (1919) to the end of the nine years of the Republic of China (1920), the number of people who went to France reached more than 1600 people, and the number of people who went to Sichuan was the largest in Hunan.
This batch of students which was called "the movement".
Most of these young people haven't learned French before. Some even like Fang Sichao, they misunderstood "half work and half reading". They thought they were studying while working. They didn't expect to earn their tuition first, and then they could save enough tuition to study.
Fang Sichao had a dream before going abroad. He liked airplanes, wanted to go to French engineering, and went into a factory to make planes.
When he arrived in France, he did enter the Renault aircraft engine plant. But because he didn't know the technology, he couldn't understand the local language. He worked as a fitter. He worked hard and hard.
There is such a paragraph in the diary:
"Today, 5 minutes late, the French foreman will not come in, saying that this class is my absenteeism, and I have to wait for the next class. Half a day's salary is so bad. Three months, every day to go back to sweat, a slow movement, is also being scolded as a Chinese pig. I really don't know what it is for France.
In addition to the factory when Turner, fitter, a lot of work study students in France has become the coal workers. The picture shows the photo of the students who work thrifty after the Ramsey coal mine is raised in France. The picture comes from Zhang Qianyi's book.
Fang Sichao also had a dream of saving the country. He wanted to translate the lack of technical books in China with his fellow countrymen. The book was called "the practical technology of copper and iron cold work". But the time to pay rent and meals is enough to make the workmanship full, and no time to read and learn French. In the cold and humid basement, I can't sleep at night.
Last September, when the students in France were making the most trouble, the students working hard and frugal occupied the University of Lyon and France, protesting against the fact that the school refused to accept them, but they were recruiting students at home.
In the street, everywhere pull banners parade waving a baton Chinese students and French police.
In those days, Party Sichao stuffy didn't go out in the basement. He received a letter from home, the wife Dutch act.
He left in the year, the wife of depressive illness, had several illness, but no money for the doctor, in order not to add to the home, she Dutch act. It was twenty-six years old when he died.
Brother in the ICT article scold him, said the family owes a debt ass, Xuan son (Fang Sichao's son) of the body is not good, so he hurried home to pay.
The Beiyang Government in order to quell the students' mood, pay for travel to foreign students are willing to return to the majority of work study students are not willing to hastily return, Party Sichao hesitation, received travel, and ask the students to borrow some money, a week later to leave for home.
Back in Changsha, he only stayed at home for two weeks and went to Beijing.
He thinks with the background of Liuyang, should not be difficult to mix a middle school teacher's work. It turned out to be a great disappointment. When he applied for a middle school teacher in Beijing, he found out that he had a master or doctor in Qinghua, who didn't even have a diploma.
The family constantly urged him to send money, and he found a hairdresser as a hairdresser, with the barber skill he learned in France.
The diary says:
"When Chen Yingde told him a few French sentences in front of guests, he felt uncomfortable." in France, two years ago, he came back to be a barber.
n the end, the diary was also covered with a bulletin which I had posted on the "day of the day".
He knew that he was found before I went.
In May, I went to the Nanyuan aviation institute again, and they said the plane crash was an accident. Small electric oil (gasoline bottle) go flying fire, students lack of experience, the coach can react, aircraft landing failure, finally crashed.
One teacher shook his head, "I think not, komago although young, but also old students, will not make that mistake, it is that the new mechanic, check it carefully enough, may not find fault lecythus."
March 31, 1922 (Friday), at 10:20 in the morning, Baoding Airlines team Ma Yufang driving "Hendry Pugh" aircraft landing at Baoding airport, the aircraft altitude is too low, the tail hanging near the airport the plane crashed on fire. The driver Ma Yufang and the 13 crew were all burned to death. The air crash was the largest number of deaths in China's flight accidents at that time.
I was shocked, "little sun? Fujian?
The teacher said: "the young man is very good, I don't understand him, but." I sighed with a sigh.
Last night, I sent the draft of the story to Xu Lang to see.
I asked him, what do you feel about living abroad? He used to practice in the United States for a while.
He said he was a little shy at the beginning. He always felt that people pointed to it, and he was used to it for a long time.
After a while, he also sent a message: the habit, is identified himself as a "foreign", and not go into the - when not working, or a little upset.
Jin Mu also left school, the last batch of students in the late Qing Dynasty. From 1905 to 1911, it was in several cities in Japan.
There is little mention of this life in his notes.
However, I think he is "suck".
A few months before the homicide case, he mentioned in his notes that he published a book that year, Yu Dafu's novel sink, telling a story of a Japanese student.
In October 1921, Yu Dafu published a collection of short stories "depravity", Shanghai has the book reprinted Taidong press, published in more than 30 thousand volumes, a good writings make people copy them. Yu Dafu wrote in the preface: "sunk is the psychology of a young man who describes a sick man, and it can also be said to be the anatomy of the Hypochondria of the youth melancholy."
By now the psychological medicine, Party Sichao and Yu Dafu are likely to be depressive illness, appear mental disorders.
The present students still face similar problems.
A survey of the Yale University in the past few years found that 45% of the Chinese students said they had symptoms of depression.
"100 years ago, want to study salvation.
After 100 years, want to study to change the fate of almost a year overseas to bankrupt cost is about 10 times the domestic wage income, many families to send their children abroad to sell.
According to the statistics of the global think tank and the domestic recruitment website, 80.5% of the returnees are currently paid less than 10 thousand yuan. This is the source of anxiety for many foreign students: low returns.
Studying abroad in order to find a better job and gain social status? Or do you learn something that you like to learn?
This "input" logic is the root of stress and anxiety.
Not only study abroad, but many things in life have fallen into the logical trap of "input-output".
For example, to go to school for a job, get married to have children, raising children as old age, no fun, only heavy "goal in life".
In a few years ago, a girl who had just graduated, said that he had made a plan to go to Germany to read philosophy. The reason is simple, because like philosophy, Germany can see more authentic philosophy.
That's not the same, isn't it?
