Lin Qichi had only done one disgraceful thing in his life - in the autumn of 1946, he squatted at a junk stall in Jiangtan, Chongqing, and spent half a month of rice to buy a scrap watch.
The watch is made by Shen Zesheng. S. Z. Was engraved on the back of the glass, and the hands were nailed to eight forty-seven.
In 1928, at Jinling Branch, Engineer Shen, who was studying in Germany in the Ordnance Industry Administration, came to borrow a book. His cuffs were stained with engine oil and he said, "A broken clock can be repaired." She believed it.
In 1937, he stayed at the gunpowder magazine and lost half of his legs. When he reappeared, he was already a cripple technician in Tongzi Mountain.
Later, she bought his death watch at a garage sale and stuffed it under her pillow for half her life. □□ He broke the watch movement during a house raid, but she laughed: "He deliberately broke the spring and left a gap in the gears because he was afraid that it would jam me."
In 1997, Taipei sent back an old book with an attached page that read: Shen Zesheng died in 1995, and his last words were "Things should return to their original owners."
When the new building was completed in 2005, her granddaughter asked Zhong why he didn't leave.
Eighty-nine-year-old Lin Qichi touched the glass and said: "The master didn't teach me how to move, so I just showed it to scare mice."
