Which buried things, I originally intended to go early tomorrow morning when no one to dig a look out.

But that night, because of the loud noise I did not sleep all night.

Seventeen, the whole night sounded seventeen.

No warning, no pattern.

The sound was terrifying, at least in the quiet of the night, which was too scary.

These ghosts buried what in the end, I know nothing.

Why to bury such things, I am even more puzzled.

I only know that the buried things will not be simple, and there must be danger.

At dawn, I couldn't suppress my curiosity.

I climbed out of the tunnel and left the house.

Confirming that no one was around, I slowly made my way to the outskirts of Beiping.

I looked at which piece of ground where the ghosts had buried something and watched the surroundings.

No one was alone, a good opportunity to strike.

I took a few steps forward, intending to take a closer look at the buried earthbag.

But not far in front of me, I saw blood.

Beside the blood was the body of a wolf, a broken carcass to be exact.

It had been blown into several pieces and was indistinguishable.

I couldn't even recognize it because half of the wolf's head was stuck in the soil upside down.

And there was a deep pit next to the bloodstain, and the pit was a large area of scorched black.

I carefully observed the ground, there are many small pits like dirt bags.

Also saw a trace of reflection, I took a few steps up from the ground to pick up the reflection of things.

Is a very thin piece of metal, with a layer of scorched black.

This should be the source of the sound of the explosion, but also the cause of the explosion.

I gently picked up under the nose and smelled, with a burnt smell.

In contrast to a pit on the ground, the pit is buried inside this thing.

Carefully squatted down and shaved the soil on the outermost layer of an earth bag, and indeed the metal shell was exposed.

Is a small round metal block, I understand that it must be light.

I can now be 100 percent sure which explosion last night must be related to this.

When I slowly shaved the earth around the metal block and took the mine out, my hands were shaking.

I started to turn around to leave when I heard a click just before my back foot stepped on it.

The crunch of metal.

I stepped on a mine?

I tensed my body and did not dare to move, standing in place and did not know what to do.

I tried to slowly squat down and put the dug out metal block to the ground.

Then began to gently poke away the soil around the feet.

Gently plucked away until you see the metal block under your feet.

I really stepped on it, what a mistake.

I don't know how to do, I guess a loose foot metal block will immediately explode.

A gamble? Withdraw and run?

Such a thought appeared in the mind.

Will I run faster will not be blown up?

When I was ready to move my feet away, I heard a voice I couldn't understand coming from behind me.

"どうしたんだ？?"

(What's wrong?)

A ghost's shouted voice came over.

My heart tightened.

Slowly twisting my head, I turned my head.

An oni was right behind me, looking at me.

I thought I was finished.

I didn't even have a weapon with me in order to dig for the metal block.

As I pondered the ghost if I came up another half step I would punch him in the head.

The ghost slowly crouched down and muttered something to himself.

(Stepped on a mine? Did not bring a gun and came out, right. Look nervous are unable to speak, this situation I can solve.)

As the ghosts lowered their heads, I realized that because I was wearing a uniform the ghosts took me as one of their own.

The ghost observed for a moment raised his head and looked at me and said, "問題ありません。"

(No problem.)

There was silence, I had no idea what he was talking about.

I made a harmless face with my hands spread out.

The ghost gave me a thumbs up then took the gun off his back.

I started to get scared, was he going to kill me with one shot?

The ghost removed the bayonet from the gun in front of me.

The ghost then chanted and put down the gun and bent down with the bayonet.

(Meet me counted lucky, if others will certainly give the bayonet to let themselves removed. And I am one of the few people who have dismantled real mines during training, so let me help us will be fine. Don't worry, you know. I'm planning to marry my beloved Ai-chan after this battle. What? Are you scared silly and can not speak? Don't be nervous, if the bombing is accompanied by me. (I wonder if the emperor will give me a martyr medal after the bombing, I'm still a little excited to think about it.)

The devil once again plucked a bit of earth and grabbed my foot. Stabbed the knife into the metal block, and then lifted my foot.

There was no explosion.

"素晴らしい." The ghost shouted happily.

(Great.)

The ghost picked up the bayonet from under my foot, which at that moment had a metal block stuck above it.

The ghost was still talking about something.

(See, now this mine is useless. What a thrill. Be careful next time.)

And I laughed happily.

The ghost saw me laughing and laughed along with me, and pulled the metal block off the bayonet.

Pointing to the hole where the metal block was cut, he said something.

(This cut was just this one small opening, although we had trained how to disarm the mines. But the first time there will definitely be small mistakes, but watch out.)

The ghost finished smiling and handed over the metal block.

I smiled and took it and said, "谢谢."

"何だと？ 中国の？" The ghost looked flustered.

(What? The Chinese?)

The next moment the ghost looked to the gun on the ground aside, when the ghost reacted to it.

I had already taken the ghost's hand and pushed the bayonet in the ghost's hand and stabbed him in the throat.

Then the ghost went limp in front of me, and I held him.

Slowly placed him on the ground, making sure he didn't touch any other dirt bags.

He saved me, and I had to kill him.

What an irony, with the metal block given by the ghost in my hand I hurried back home.

I put the metal block on the table and lit three incense sticks.

Seriously, I kowtowed ten times.

He was a benefactor, but unfortunately he was also an enemy.

If there was no war, I think I would have entertained him with the best wine and meat.

Although I couldn't understand a word he said, I knew he was a good man.

After knocking a full ten times, I lifted my head.

Picked up the metal block on the table and studied it.

Finished cutting the metal block with the bayonet on the gun.

The metal block was divided into two parts.

The lower half of the black block should be the source of the explosion.

And the upper part is interesting.

Several pieces made of thin metal sheets.

The sealed cylinder has been cut open and inside is a firing pin.

If the iron is pressed down and then bounced up, it will drive the firing pin to strike on a black stone.

I tried to hit the stone with the firing pin, a knock on the sparks.

I think these sparks on a bit of the black block underneath will explode.

But I did not dare to try, because I know which boom must not be too powerful.

I put the metal block aside and stopped thinking about which thing.

In the following days, I began to try to avoid the ground with dirt bags.

I would also be careful when hunting in the forest, and the ghosts seemed to have settled into Beiping City.

Except for the ghost soldiers who stood on the city walls and patrolled every day, there were no ghosts out on patrol.

I don't know if the ghost units that were sent out had already beaten half of China.

One night, a month later, I was asleep in the tunnel.

Suddenly, I heard the sound of footsteps.

I immediately woke up alert and nervously held my breath to observe.
