"He's an android."
The gang leader said seriously.
He described a very special family.
The woman used to work in a special industry and had several children, all of which were aborted.
During her last pregnancy, the doctor told her that if she didn't give birth this time, there would be no hope in the future.
Probably because she had a desire to be a mother, she chose to give birth.
That day, the gang boss also sent someone to give him two thousand yuan.
"We are all scumbags living at the bottom of society. Some of us are living in such misery... Even if we can't stand it anymore, we will help."
The man is a custom-made android who awakened after being tortured by his employer. Fortunately, he did not crash due to circuit breaker measures. During the resistance, he accidentally killed his employer and fled to this slum.
It just so happened that the new baby needed a father.
So a family was formed.
Xia Chuluo has been here several times before, but no one told her that there were awakened androids who escaped here.
This is a slum, and if you look for anyone on the street, they might be carrying a case.
"Their family has been doing well in the past few years. The men go to pick up some scraps, and the women don't do that kind of thing anymore. They learn to do some needlework... This guy, if he really wants to live a serious life, he can actually get by."
Many people in the slums are in this place.
Poverty is one reason.
Not seeing any hope of escaping poverty is another reason.
So they become numb.
"The child is also six years old. He will definitely not be able to go to school. No matter how safe he is in this life, who knows what kind of disease he suddenly got some time ago. The surgery will cost hundreds of thousands, and there will be various expenses later. "
"These days, human life is worth less than grass."
"The lives in this slum, including mine, are not worth hundreds of thousands. Why do you need so much to see a doctor?"
"If I get this disease myself, I will have a good night first, and then I will go to my former enemies, drink when I need to, and draw my gun when I need to."
The gang boss said it was a family matter.
It is also difficult for them to intervene.
"An hour ago, he came to buy a gun from me. I don't know where he got the money."
"Okay, I know."
After asking, the two expressed their gratitude and left.
Then there are the traditional polite words such as resting for a while, eating before leaving, and poor hospitality.
The two left the den.
Soldiers are soldiers, thieves are thieves.
Many times, many lives only have one or two intersections.
Some people are life-and-death enemies, but they cherish each other, and some people are husband and wife who share the same bed, but they hate each other.
"Next, go to the android's house first. If you can't find anyone, of course there is a high chance that you can't find anyone, then go to the Central Hospital in District 15." Lu Wen said.
During their conversation just now, the two of them learned that the child was receiving treatment at the Central Hospital in District 15.
The android bought a gun and was worried about what would happen next.
"Don't worry, let's have lunch first." Xia Chuluo said slowly.
"Again?"
Lu Wen remembered that he had lunch first last time.
No one was saved.
He still thinks about whether to tell Yun Yang.
"I am a sick and injured person. Only by eating on time can I recover quickly."
Okay, that sounds reasonable.
Lu Wen suggested going to the 15th district to find a restaurant.
But Xia Chuluo said just find a small restaurant in this slum.
"Are you sure things are clean in here?"
"What are you afraid of? You, an android, are afraid of eating too much?"
The two of them were sitting in a small noodle shop.
Lu Wen could hear the sounds of flies flying around.
The tabletop was a little greasy. He took a napkin and wiped it several times, but there was still some greasy stains.
The noodle shop's business is really good, people come and go, and the seats are packed.
In fact, this slum, which is in better condition, is similar to those in small towns, with low-rise buildings, but the buildings are denser, the flow of people is greater, and the environment is worse.
"Lao Chen, noodles mixed with scallion oil and a chicken drumstick."
The middle-aged man opened the freezer and took out a bottle of cold beer.
Lu Wen took a look.
[Duan Tiannan]
[45 year old human]
[unemployed]
He turned to look at the others around him.
[Zhong Yuan]
[29 year old human]
[Unemployed homeless person with criminal record]
…
[He Dalong]
[36 year old human]
[Wanted fugitive, rewarded 20,000 yuan]
Lu Wen sent a message to Xia Chuluo.
"Every time you eat noodles in this place, you can meet wanted criminals."
"If you dare to capture him in this place, both of us will disappear today."
Xia Chuluo replied.
On the street outside the noodle shop, you can pick out more than a dozen pedestrians coming and going, and you can find those who are on the run.
Xia Chuluo ordered two bowls of beef noodles.
Lu Wen's hearing was very sensitive and he listened quietly to the sounds around the noodle shop. In a place like this, it was always right to be vigilant.
Maybe the man sitting outside setting up a stall is the boss of a certain gang.
"It's boring to drink beer, but the white ones are more powerful." The noodle shop owner walked up to the middle-aged man named Duan Tiannan with a bowl of noodles mixed with scallion oil.
"The white ones are harmful to the body, but the beer ones are just for taste. In fact, the red ones are better, with a mixture of bitterness and sourness, a hint of sweetness, and you will feel youthful after one sip." Duan Tiannan shook his head.
"Everyone is a rough guy, so don't talk about that. Look at what you said, it's like you have really drunk." The boss smiled.
"I've never drank it before. When I was young, I could easily go in and out of wineries in other cities..."
really.
Do the men in this world also like to brag between meals
A sudden sense of familiarity.
In the executive board's public channel, Xia Chuluo sent a message.
"For the gold store, please don't issue any notices or monitor the situation for the time being. Let the unscrupulous media go out for a while."
Not a few seconds passed.
Someone replied to a message.
"It has been released and the surveillance has been released."
The reply was from Wu Yu.
This time Xia Chuluo was really speechless.
"Let's go, I can't eat this bowl of noodles!"
"Pig-like thing!"
Lu Wen probably knew what Xia Chuluo was thinking.
So now I understand her mood very well.
He also wanted to curse in the public channel.
…
District 15, Central Hospital.
"Dr. Lu, this is all the money I can borrow now. Can you perform the surgery on my child first? I will figure out how to make the rest of the money..." A skinny man took out more than 100,000 in cash from his backpack. He begged softly.
This money is still far from the cost of surgery.
In a ward not far away, a six-year-old child was lying on the hospital bed, his face pale.
My mother was standing beside the hospital bed, never leaving.
She grew up in a slum, dressed simply, and left the place where she had lived for half her life for the first time for this child.
Inside the office.
The attending doctor sighed, obviously knowing the difficulty for this family.
"Hey, I'll apply and do the surgery first."
"You and your wife can actually start fundraising online. There are many platforms now. As long as you undergo real-name authentication, you can upload information."
The skinny man nodded repeatedly, his eyes were red, and his knees immediately bent.
If it weren't for the doctor holding him up, he would have knelt down.
At this moment, a piece of news suddenly played on the office TV.
News about a gold store robbery.
and gave a photo.
The doctor turned his head and looked at it, his face changed suddenly, and then he looked at the more than 100,000 yuan that the man had taken out.
"Your money..."
All he responded to was the cold muzzle of the gun.
"Doctor Lu, I really can't do anything, please..."
The hand of the thin man holding the gun was obviously shaking.
Thanks to book friend Mu Xiulanxiang OvO for the 10,000 reward
