Once in the unit chat, SUN Li Tak accidentally mention these Jews to leave the home to a friend's book, the other immediately exclaimed: "! This is a World War II left something worthless."<br><br>SUN Li Tak surprised. He never considered "money" issue. Like with all the family, since he knows these books, they were told it was "someone else's stuff." 70 years, the book with the twists and turns of this household, but I'm never at home as a family property.

Everyone thought that these books never squarely in the sights of a catastrophe.<br><br>SUN Li 8-year-old German, the first time the book has been unforgettable memories. That afternoon, he saw his uncle Lam Sheung Yee as "SPINNER spirit lock" doom against the house. Outside a hustle.

They will be shipped back to the book room, affix the seal, leaving the sentence: "After a few days to come back!"<br><br>The presence of all stunned. The next day, Lin Chi Road, personally went to the annual session of the oldest of Religious Affairs.

He did not see those books, did not wait until the book's owner.<br><br>This year, Lin Tao Chi hearts of the most concerned about, but it is still a few steps out of reach of these books. Do not wait until the book's owner, has become a lifetime of regret Lindau blog. Eldest son had died, and he hopes his son Lam Sheung Yee little hands, these books can wait for their owners. "This is my grandfather's dying wish." SUN Li Tak said.<br><br>Uncle Lam Sheung Yee same worship Lindau blog. SUN Li impression in Germany, he was as smart and capable and grandfather, received numerous awards in the unit. The nearly 20-year-old older than his elders, young people do not lose curiosity. 20 years ago, the uncle and nephew had explored the question: what time will be more advanced than the transmitter of things, so that we can easily contact with foreign countries?<br><br>10 years ago, when the computer is just entering the home, Lam Sheung Yee on playing the internet. In the Lin family is the oldest, he is also the Lin family first learned to send "E-mail" person. SUN Li Tak understand that behind uncle obsessed network, hidden in a wish.<br><br>"He wanted to find, to find the owner of these books." SUN Li Tak said, "even by personal power needle in a haystack to find that he was willing to try."<br><br>Extreme lack of clues, so that these attempts failed. As a devout Christian, his father died from the beginning, Lam Sheung Yee always pray for these books until 2006 sudden death sudden illness. This is his wife PAN Lu left the deepest impression, he even gave the family a chance to leave the other exhortations. PAN Lu remember, her husband put it up on their own, like father like then:. "They'll be back."<br><br>Find the owner of the book, as well as his last wish. PAN Lu took the baton and SUN Li Germany, trying to keep the patient. But compared to the former, they are more anxious.<br><br>In September,http://www.noshironet.jp/bbs2/light.cgi?res=21", the unexpected discovery Lindau Chi handwritten "confession material", the PAN Lu far to find a student in Germany. She and Steve Schneider Germany wrote a letter and asked him translated into German, according to "explain the material" at the end of the German address sent out. The rise of the letter is "Mr. Karl Angell or his descendants?", PAN Lu wrote:. "If you remember this group of books, and Shanghai, please contact us, we've been waiting for you."<br><br>The letter was sent was returned. German post office told mailers "Recipient no such person." Carr may have already moved out of a place. PAN Lu bit disappointed. She was afraid the owner could not find a book that will make her uneasy rest.<br><br>She also wrote a letter, sent to Shanghai Jewish Refugees Museum.<br><br>Special Story<br><br>Jewish Refugees Museum curator served six years, Chen Jian and his colleagues try to find dozens of Jewish refugees in Shanghai and stories. However, upon receipt of the appeal letter Pan busy, he still felt "Pizhen a bit."<br><br>"This is the most exciting thing we encountered pile. It is a story of the past is not the same as any." Chen Jian this is quite confident. Previously, the story of his contacts are "Jews come back to the Chinese people," This is the first "Chinese people looking for the Jews." But clearly, the story is far from special significance in that.<br><br>In 2007, Chen Jian to Germany to visit the Holocaust Memorial, one of the exhibition describes the history of Jewish refugees in Shanghai, but make it by stimulation. There was a small globe, marked with during World War II to provide shelter for Jewish refugees country. Chen Jian see position on Shanghai, stuck in the side of the Japanese flag. Locals explain, some unknown to the Jews because Shanghai Tilanqiao concession area was the day, thought it was the Japanese saved them.<br><br>"Later, the German historian told me that Jewish refugees on the year's most gratitude is a sudden influx of 20,000 people Tilanqiao, greatly affected the lives of local residents, but throughout there is no harm to them together." Said Chen Jian "Obviously, when the Jews in trouble, the same war-torn China to help people reach out to them. You have to clarify this history."<br><br>It is for this idea, Chen Jian and his colleagues started a stretch of historical data collected so far. The story of three generations of the Lin family, apparently provided the best evidence. "If you do not trust the deep Jewish refugees and Chinese residents,woolrich outlet, why did he put the book to him, and not others?"<br><br>Makes it even touched, is the Lin family "honor its promise of perseverance." "For decades, the displaced themselves, why pay so much for the book cost? Why not throw away? Sell?" Appears in Chen Jian, Lin Chi Road, has a kind of "Chinese bones spiritual strength."<br><br>PAN Lu and Sun Li Germany does not want to hype their own stories. PAN Lu repeatedly said,tn reuqin pas cher, "I do not want to disturb too many people do not want to make people feel that this is how a big deal. We just want to find the owner of the book." But promised to help find through government channels, Chen Jian, tried to persuade them to open the story, "We especially need this spiritual strength."<br><br>Yesterday, October 16, 2013, these books finally completely public. In the year of Moses Hall, PAN Lu and Sun Li Tak to the public for the first time to unlock the secrets of the wall garret. Chen Jian told them that the memorial has sought assistance through the German Consulate General in Shanghai, the other said it would contact the local authorities as soon as possible, a closer look migratory status Carl and his family through the file system. In such a way the possibility of finding large.<br><br>Afternoon, more than 2,000 books were sent to Hongkou District Library. Professionals will be finishing the registration, and took custody of them until you find the owner. SUN Li Tak feel some comfort. At least he and his aunt no longer need to fear these books, they can safely leave the old home, waiting for my grandfather to honor commitments.<br><br>They do not expect, if found each other, what will be the scene. SUN Li appears in Germany, this is not a special thing. "Found, return the book to them, it wants to."<br><br>But he occasionally this idea: "If the descendants of Carl hear their parents talk in the story of these books, they will come to us?<br><br>
