Chapter Two: Author's Note I wrote this book not to attract attention with a spy story, nor to glorify prostitutes. I simply wanted to awaken some people—not to forget the heroes without tombstones. Especially the countless nameless heroes like Liu Ruyan. Who were they? They were the daughters of impoverished scholarly families in Suzhou, the peasant girls sold by their own parents during the escape from northern Jiangsu, the thirteen or fourteen-year-old children, their eyes blurred with hunger at the docks, lured onto a ship by traffickers with a single word. They were sold into brothels, pushed into the mire, living in the dirtiest, darkest, and most despised corners. But when the nation was in peril, when the people suffered, when that era needed someone to stand up, it wasn't just the famous figures who stood up, but also them. They used their own methods—passing on intelligence, hiding comrades, giving away their wealth, even sacrificing their lives—to light up glimmers of light for this country. Then they died. They died without unit numbers, without uniforms, without tombstones. No one held memorial services for them, no one wrote their names in textbooks. What they left behind might just be a fleeting mention of "anonymous" in some file, or perhaps nothing at all. Even more tragically, because of their identities, some people are unwilling to remember them, even unwilling to acknowledge what they did. "Prostitutes"—these four words are like a branding iron, seared onto their bodies and into the memories of future generations. Some might say: what good could people from such places possibly have? What's there to say about their stories? But I insist on speaking out. Because they were also daughters, also sisters, also who once nestled in their mothers' arms, also who chased butterflies on the field ridges. Being sold was not their choice; their descent into prostitution was not their fault. They struggled their entire lives in that cannibalistic world, ultimately risking their lives for a new China they might never see. Why shouldn't such people be remembered? Bai Yulan was called a "whore" for eight years, but in the end, she lived her life as a ghost, determined to drag down the person who killed Liu Ruyan. Aunt Jin was called a "brothel madam" her whole life, yet in the end, she gave away all the money she had saved her entire life to save a complete stranger. Hongling was just a maid, but in the end, she risked her life to buy Liu Ruyan a few minutes of life. Their identities were dishonorable, but their feelings were genuine. Their sacrifices were real. Their love for their country was real. I wrote this book to leave something behind for them. Even if it's just a glimmer of light, even if only a few people see it, even if no one reads this book in a few years—at least, they lived. They lived in this book. Liu Ruyan died, in the Huangpu River. But her zither music still lingers in the wind, lingering for ten whole years. Bai Yulan disappeared; some say she died in a well, some say she became a madwoman singing by the river. But the gold bar she threw into the river has rusted into mud. Hongling fell, in a pool of blood. But those three words she studied until her death—jasmine, jasmine, flower—were remembered by Xiao Taohong, and by those who remembered her. Aunt Jin grew old, her hair white. But she held Xiao Taohong's hand, walking towards the tall chimney of Yangshupu, towards those waiting for them, towards that uncertain tomorrow. They were gone. But they left something behind. This is the whole reason I wrote this book. Not for sensationalism, not for emotional manipulation, not for any "traffic" or "eyeballs." Just to remember. To remember those heroes without tombstones. To remember those who, despite their stains, gave everything for the Republic. To remember those jasmine flowers blooming in the mud, blooming for themselves, fragrant for themselves. The river still flows. The wind still blows. That song is still being sung. Listen. —Lone Goose, March 13, 2026
