She took two blows from the sturdy man next to her, and beat the leader of the three men in an extremely ferocious way. The miserable screams attracted people around to watch, and until the sturdy man begged for mercy, Fu Anan bit off a piece of meat from his shoulder with her teeth.
hetui—
She spat out the blood mixed with the meat in her mouth. Her face was bruised but she looked at them fiercely.
This strong man is even more miserable than her.
Not only was he bitten, his hand was also broken. He wanted to pick a weakling, but he ended up meeting someone who didn't care about his life.
The man uttered two words with trembling lips: "Crazy, crazy!"
"What?"
Fu Anan rubbed the bruised corner of his eye and approached him expressionlessly. The loser who couldn't even win in a hand-to-hand fight was still whinning there.
The man was so frightened that he took two steps back.
Seeing so many people gathering around him, including some he knew, such an embarrassing thing made his face turn pale. He supported the three of them and left in embarrassment.
Damn, bad luck.
Fu Anan rubbed his arm that was hurt by the beating. If he hadn't been a newcomer and didn't know the situation, he would have killed these three blind men.
She emerged from the crowd and headed towards the accommodation she had just chosen, attracting more attention along the way than before.
The house we stayed in was barely a second floor.
The boss here is a skinny, dark-skinned woman with many wrinkles and sun spots on her face. She looks like she is in her fifties, but her voice is still very young. "How many people?"
"Me alone."
After Fu Anan finished speaking, the woman raised her head and looked at her, then lowered her head again, "We have one room on the first floor and three rooms on the second floor. Which one do you choose?"
Fu Anan thought for a moment, "Is there any difference?"
"The first floor is more expensive, and the second floor is cheaper. The second floor is directly exposed to the sun, so it is hot during the day and cold at night. The first floor is better."
The boss spoke quickly, and then started clacking the abacus in his hand.
Anyone who has lived in a second floor apartment knows that a second floor without insulation is like a steamer in the summer. In this environment, it is impossible to have an insulation layer.
Hearing this, the boss stopped using the abacus and asked, "What do you want to pay for it?"
Fu Anan took out a small gold piece from her pocket and put it on the counter. She happened to glance at the boss and found that the hand she was using to hold the abacus was missing two fingers.
She pinched the little gold with her remaining fingers, took a bite of it, and weighed it in her hand. "That's all. Only enough for five days."
"Then stay for five days."
Fu Anan replied.
She followed her boss into the last remaining room.
The room is small and the windows are small too.
The lighting in the room is not good. The sun is now very gloomy, and it will be dark very quickly in the evening. The layout inside is also very simple. There is not even a stool except for a bed.
"Is there a light?"
"No."
"Is there a place to wash up?"
"No."
The boss frowned at her delicate appearance and said, "If you want to take a shower, go to the canal in the east and pay for water. We only provide accommodation here, not water, food, or daily necessities. Many men and women are taken away by wild beasts in the Gobi Desert every year, and their bodies become one with the land. This is not the place for you, little girl. I advise you to go back to where you came from as soon as possible."
After saying this, the woman with only three fingers left.
This stunned Fu Anan, who felt she had been cheated, and slightly reduced her resentment of wanting to return the money.
