"Jonas...Jonas..." Kelly's shout came from the woods.

Zhou Nan stood up. Since the wound had not completely healed, he did not dare to turn his head. He turned his body directly. He responded in a low voice: "I am here..."

The fat Kelly walked out of the woods and looked at Zhou Nan'an safely, with a happy smile on her face. "Mr. Hoffman called from Brussels. Due to the railway strike, the goods in front were not received. He urged to send a cart of margarine and sausages as soon as possible, so your seal is needed."

"Okay, I'll go back right away... Are there any other requests? Where are the vegetables?"

"It's spring now, and Belgium will not be short of vegetables..." She carefully measured Zhou Nan's forehead with the back of her hand. "Fortunately, there was no fever, Yonas, your wound has not completely healed, don't blow the air outside."

Kelly's husband Jansen was an assistant Hoffmann looked for when he returned to Germany. After the outbreak of World War II, he was killed by French guerrillas on the way to transport reserve supplies to the battlefield.

Two of their children starved to death in the early 1930s, leaving only one eldest son two years older than Zhou Nan, and died on the battlefield the year before yesterday. Since then, the lonely and helpless Kelly came to Hoffman's house to be a servant.

She is a German woman with a good mentality, with a tough personality and hardworking attitude. Apart from being a little nagging, Zhou Nan found no shortcomings in her. Without her husband and children, she transferred her love for her children to Zhou Nan.

Here, only she and Zhou Nan were brought by Hoffman, who usually took special care of Zhou Nan. She also helped Zhou Nan to help those maids and Zhou Nan get vulgar jokes.

Unfortunately, after Zhou Nan was taken back to the country by the purchasing group, he never saw her again, nor did he meet someone who was very kind to him but did not seek reward.

Seeing that the snacks in the basket didn't move, she asked, "What's wrong? Don't you like these cookies the most?"

After experiencing his dream life, in addition to his mentality, Zhou Nan found that his taste seemed to have become aging. In the past, he liked sweets and barbecue food, but now, he prefers salty food and drinks soup.

"No, maybe it's the cause of the injury, I don't seem to be interested in sweets now."

She lifted the basket and held Zhou Nan's arm while walking, saying, "There is very little sugar now, but the salt will not be less. You like salty. I will roast some vegetable biscuits for you tomorrow."

"Thank you, Kelly."

"No, my child, you never have to say thank you."

Zhou Nan looked at her with some emotion and met her warm gaze. The two of them smiled and walked forward together.

After walking about two hundred meters along the path inside the woods, a three-story Dutch country house stands in the river by a slowly flowing river.

The front entrance of the villa faces a lawn. The two floors on the left side of the lawn are the male servant's residence and utility room, and the two floors on the right are the maid's residence and kitchen.

This place was originally owned by Viscount Hemstrasse, a direct relative of the Dutch royal family. However, after Arnhem was occupied by the German army, it was occupied by several German major figures. As for Viscount's relatives, men were locked up in concentration camps for labor reform, and women were arranged to work in factories.

Although Zhou Nan was a foreigner, he was raised by Hoffman like his son and regarded him as his own child. Because of his work nature, although he was unable to occupy a bedroom in the villa, he also had a small office and a dedicated telephone.

Speaking of this, I have to first introduce the Hoffman family. The Hoffman family is actually just an ordinary family of merchants. Otherwise, they would not have run from Hamburg to an island city occupied by the Japanese in the 1920s.

However, during his business in Island City, Hoffmann met Alexander von Farkenhausen, the last German advisory group in the Republic of China at that time. Farkenhausen was very grateful to Hoffmann, and during his time in China, he introduced him to a lot of businesses to make their family grow stronger.

In 38 years, the Japanese army occupied Qingdao again, and Zhou Dazhuang died in the resistance. The sixteen-year-old Zhou Nan followed the Hoffman family to Shanghai. Then, he followed the dismissed Falkenhausen to Germany.

On the way to follow the Hoffman family from China to Germany, the old Hoffman was unlucky. When he was in Singapore, he contracted malaria and died in a foreign land before he arrived in India.

Shortly after returning to his hometown in Hamburg, World War II broke out again. Due to his experience as a merchant and his relationship with Farkenhausen, Hoffmann did not become an officer, but instead became a businessman serving the army.

When Farkenhausen became the governor of the German army to Belgium, he also gained a fortune by taking advantage of this relationship and became a military supplier in the entire Belgium, transporting supplies to the German army and police forces.

Arnhem, a military city that is just a stone's throw from Germany, has become the logistics supply point for the German army. Hoffmann was in charge of Belgium, so Arnhem left Zhou Nan in charge. From the summer of 40 years to now, he has lived in this small town for three years.

Due to his relationship with Farkenhausen, even Seth Inquart, the governor of the military government, would give Hoffman a little bit of a thin face, so Zhou Nan lived a very leisurely and comfortable life in this small town.

The European battlefield during World War II was not a special period, but was actually very peaceful. It took Germany five days to occupy the Netherlands. In the following four years, there were no major casualties. Even if the Germans wanted to kill the Jews, they used trains to pull people into the concentration camp in Poland.

In Zhou Nan's impression, until the Market Garden Operation, in four years, the Germans killed less than 2,000 Dutch people. Compared with another war of 30 million people, the war here can really be called a war of civilization.

But later, in order to retaliate against the Allied Market Garden Operation and punish the Dutch who helped the Allied forces, the 44-year-old Hunger Winter Plan appeared, causing tens of thousands of people to die from famine.

During the three years Zhou Nan has been here, he feels that he lives in a peaceful environment. Of course, the Dutch people here are not so happy because they need hard work but their income is very low.

Zhou Nan considered himself just a little person. Although he had some cleverness, he did not have great wisdom. He was also kind-hearted and unwilling to actively participate in more affairs. Because in the era of war, the more things he did, the more people you might hurt.

Anyway, in Zhou Nan's memory, the five years from 39 to 44 years were the happiest time in his life. After returning to China from Europe, he was completely trapped in a world without light, and he did not settle down until his old age.

In the small office, two men and one woman and three young men were counting the bills. One was a soldier from the Belgian military government, responsible for coordinating the transportation of goods, and the other was a Gestapo, responsible for supervision, and only one woman was a company employee. Of course, in the warehouse near the railway station, dozens of people were under management by Zhou Nan.

Seeing Zhou Nan come in, the two men just nodded, then lowered their heads and whispered. The woman named Lena stood up and said, "Jonas, there are a group of officers on the Brussels on the turnover, but the railway to Belgium was blown up and it takes two days to repair it, so a batch of supplies must be sent to Brussels in advance."

"I already know about this..." Zhou Nan turned around and looked at Kelly.

Kelly took out the seal, looked at the shipping order, and then stamped it. She carefully maintained Zhou Nan's responsibilities.

After completing the work, several people entered the chat mode again. Lena looked at the bandage on Zhou Nan's head, "Have your injuries been healed?"

"It's much better, thank you for your concern."

Julian is a somewhat decadent young man. His newborn son died of scarlet fever. Although several months have passed, he still has not recovered.

He looked at the list, turned around and took off his hat from the wall, patted it with his hand, and put it on his head. "Jonas, can I get a box of sausages to give to my mom?"

"The goods in the warehouse have been kept in the book, but you can move a box into my bedroom, you need to do it yourself."

The supplies in Zhou Nan's room were deliberately prepared for some unplanned supplies every time, so it was convenient for Zhou Nan to build a relationship here, so even if you give Julian a box, it was nothing.

Although the supplies are very tight everywhere now, ordinary people are hungry, and they will never be hungry, the person responsible for transporting supplies. Just like in the bitter era, chefs will not be hungry.

"Thank you, I will give you my dagger made of shell casing in the back."

"No, that's your beloved thing." But Julian shook his head and said nothing, walked out of the office. The dagger was polished and prepared to give to his son, but now his son is dead.

As a Gestapo, Lucas bit his jaw and had a square and wide face, because of this habit, which made his jaw look wider. "Since his death, he has been eager to go to the battlefield. Maybe life is just a burden to him now."

Zhou Nan sighed and said, "If you know how to be satisfied, you will not be humiliated. If you know how to stop, you will not encounter danger. Only in this way can you maintain long-term peace. Only once in your life can you be responsible for yourself."

Lucas patted Zhou Nan on the shoulder and smiled, "Don't promote your me to me, I'm a devout Christian."

Following him out of the office, Arnhem's Chief Executive Michelle, who was a serious and conservative German, even more fearful to young people than the police chief Hansen and the Gestapo captain Hederson.

Lucas quickly saluted him. Zhou Nan was not a soldier, but he stood up straight and nodded to him. A smile appeared on his serious face, waved his hand, signaling Lucas not to salute anymore, and asked Zhou Nan: "Jonas, the guerrillas who buried the mines have been arrested. They will be tried in court tomorrow, and you can also go and have a look."

If it were the past, Zhou Nan would have agreed without thinking, but now, he smiled and said, "No, I won't go. If they were threatened by my life because of my life, it would only make me feel guilty."

Michelle shook his head with some disapproval, but he had no intention of educating Zhou Nan, just said: "If everyone had your tolerance and compassion, there would be no war."
