Chapter 21: The Last Raise
Six hundred people take about two hours to walk from the Stadium to Taiping Road.
Gong Ting worked it out on the stairs, with the sling off and his shoulder complaining.
He gave the speaker the south wall and the doctor the cots and the boy a whistle.
He told them he would be back in an hour.
Nobody asked where he was going.
Bai Jin was waiting outside the gate hut in the dark with his arms folded.
Gong Ting knew the expression on his face by now.
"Don't say it," said Bai Jin.
"Say what?"
"That we should be on the wall," said Bai Jin.
"We should be on the wall."
"The wall has the speaker," said Bai Jin. "I've never seen anybody frighten a raider more. Come in."
The hut was cold and smelled of the stove.
Gong Ting lit the lamp and sat on the camp bed, which creaked.
Bai Jin stood in front of him and did not sit down.
"I want to ask you something," said Gong Ting.
"You always do."
"I know." He turned his hands over on his knees. "I've had thirty-one raises. I've never asked for the one I wanted."
Bai Jin went still.
