Chapter 259 The person in the photo is the girl he likes.

When Lusca grinned, he revealed a row of bright white teeth. He turned to look at her, gave her two thumbs up and bent them together, and said, "She must be your girlfriend, right? She's very beautiful, and you two are a perfect match."

He didn't actually remember, but he nodded subconsciously. "If nothing unexpected happens, yes."

A girl can't possibly occupy his heart for so long for no reason.

Howard shook his head, seemingly with some regret, "I really look forward to the day you regain your memory."

He has not yet regained his memory; he can only barely remember his own name and understand German and English.

It's likely that he has a high level of education, or that his family background is much better than others.

The pocket watch he carried was very important to him; it was the only thing he had found on the battlefield. He couldn't remember the name of the person in the photo. He had been trying to figure out where he came from these past few days, but to no avail.

He saw the numbers on the men's clothes on the battlefield. The numbers started with "from the capital." He thought that perhaps if he returned from the border first, he could find the answer.

Besides these, he knew nothing else.

So much so that he met Howard and Lusca on the street.

On his way to the train station, he entered a small restaurant, where the two people sitting at the next table were communicating freely in their native language.

Howard and Lusca came with a mission, but because their mission involved some undercover investigation and they didn't want to attract too much attention, they kept a low profile.

However, two people who look different are speaking German, which inevitably arouses suspicion from others.

Du Chenzhou happened to be sitting in front of them. He learned from their conversation that they were visiting China. After hesitating for a moment, he took his luggage and went up to remind them.

"The restaurant is full of all sorts of people, and your appearance is likely to attract attention. In addition, the situation here is complicated. The people around you could be anyone, and your language is different from others. If someone with ulterior motives overhears you, you could be in mortal danger."

Howard and Lusca looked at Du Chenzhou walking towards them with suspicion. They had been having a lively conversation, thinking that since no one could understand their native language, no one would pay attention. However, they were surprised to find that someone could actually understand their language. The two of them immediately became alert.

At that time, Du Chenzhou was still injured. When he arrived at the train station, he went to a nearby hospital to get his wounds bandaged. The two looked at each other in bewilderment.

Seeing their confusion, Du Chenzhou's expression remained unchanged. He simply explained his purpose in fluent German.

“I don’t mean anything by it, I just think it would be safer for you to be more careful. China is in turmoil right now, and since you’re here on a secret visit, it’s always been to avoid causing any disturbance.”

He had overheard the entire conversation between the two people.

There weren't many people in the restaurant yet. Even though the general level of education among the population is not high, there's always a chance that some other people might understand it.

It's incredibly audacious of them to discuss such important matters between the two countries so openly.

Lusca was still in shock, while Howard looked on with admiration.

"Can you understand us?"

Du Chenzhou put his bag on the table and sat down not far from them. "If I can understand, then others can understand. I'm doing this for your safety, but it might not be the case for others."

The restaurant owner looked over, but Du Chenzhou's expression didn't change.

Lusca quickly extended his hand. "What's your name? What do you do for a living?"

Du Chenzhou paused for a moment, then reached out and shook his hand. The other person knew the etiquette of shaking hands, so he must understand Chinese culture.

"Du Chenzhou, I don't know the rest."

His words are always concise and to the point; a few words can stir up a storm in one's heart.

Lusca could tell he probably had a story, so she didn't ask any more questions. Instead, she asked him, "Would you like to travel with us? We're going to the capital. If you're willing, you can be our translator."

They were completely unfamiliar with the place and its people. Although they would be received by someone in the capital, the journey would still take several days, and they knew nothing about the road ahead. They also only knew hearsay about the people of China.

But if an indigenous person were to act as their translator, the journey would be much smoother.

Du Chenzhou was originally unwilling to meddle in other people's business. He didn't even know who he was or what news his family had. But he thought that he was also going to the capital, which was on the way, and he happened to know some foreign languages. Traveling with the three of them would make things much easier for him.

After a few seconds of thought, Du Chenzhou nodded. "No problem."

The three met by chance, and on the way, they began to talk about Du Chenzhou's memories.

Knowing that he had no idea who he was, Lusca and Howard both felt a pang of regret.

But soon, Howard patted him on the shoulder again, "Don't worry, once we get to the relevant department, we'll definitely help you find a solution. It's only fair, we understand."

Du Chenzhou's plight was pitiful, but they had no better solution until they reached their destination.

During their journey, they also learned about Du Chenzhou's personality. He was always very thoughtful and answered all their questions without reservation.

Seeing that he was staring blankly at a photo again, the two of them couldn't help but wonder.

What kind of girl could make someone keep thinking about her? Just from the photo, you can only barely see that the girl is indeed pretty, but a person's charm should be more than just their appearance, right?

Thinking about it, the two of them began to look forward to it.

Du Chenzhou remained silent, staring blankly at Shu Ying in the photo.

She was wearing a white dress, not the kind of dress worn in China, and her hair was slightly curly, making her look like a porcelain doll.

He closed the pocket watch with one hand, rested his head against the train window, and closed his eyes.

Is this girl not in China?

The people in the photo have a fashionable air of an international metropolis in both their demeanor and clothing. Although they have a very dignified Eastern appearance, there probably isn't a family like that anymore at this time of year.

Du Chenzhou's mind was in turmoil. Every time he saw the person in the photo, his heart would race. He had no doubt that this was the person he liked, but he didn't know if the two of them were in love with each other.

Now, he feels lost every time he opens his eyes. He doesn't know where he came from, where his home is, or who is still in his family.

Of all the world's wonders, he alone has no home.

Although he has a girl he likes, he doesn't even know her name.
