Lu Xun is now studying Japanese with Jiro Matsumoto at Hongwen College, a language school in Niukuai, Japan. 1904 was admitted to Sendai Medical College (predecessor of Northeastern University Medical College). Because of the scholarship, Mr. Lu Xun was so keen on the novels of famous writers such as Natsume Soseki that he didn't study hard in his freshman year (Mr. Lu Xun told himself).

Later, the Russo-Japanese War broke out and related documentaries were shown in schools. Among them, when the Japanese army killed China who was a spy for the Russian army, the people in China who watched the film actually cheered.

Lu Xun realized that China people could not be cured by medicine, so he turned to medicine to seek literature.
