Chapter 364: Heal Each Other
A small apartment with one bedroom, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom, you can have a panoramic view of the whole house when you stand at the door.
Except for the canned cat on the table and a large jar of oatmeal, it felt like no one had ever lived.
The guitar man's name is James, and this small house is a relief house arranged by the community. The cost of living here is to report your health to the community staff at all times and to receive detoxification treatment. Methadone is regularly provided to drug addicts in place of white powder. It's just that methadone also has a lot of side effects, and long-term use will form physical dependence.
However, compared to white powder, methadone is much less harmful. James tried to get rid of his body's dependence on methadone, but he didn't expect the two addictions to occur at the same time, and it would become the same as before.
James helped Song Guyan and Chen Dongyu pour a glass of water each, and sat on the sofa a little depressed.
After carrying the addiction, James had no ability to act at all, so Song Guyan and Chen Dongyu could only help him back home.
In front of Song Guyan and Chen Dongyu, James was very ashamed. After all, these two Easterners saved him, but he behaved so badly, and he didn't know if he had hurt them during the chaos.
As if to make a better impression on himself, James recounted the process of his addiction.
The environment in the United States is indeed a bit poor, the bottom wants to escape from reality, the middle level is too stressed and needs to decompress, and the problems at the top are in the young people. Some students take drugs to help them concentrate on their studies. Using marijuana to aid learning, I don't know if the book has been read to dogs for so many years.
No, dogs are smart too.
This in itself is somewhat anti-intellectual, these young people are the elite of the future, but they are obsessed with these things, it must be said, from the younger generation to rot. Even the president, who has just left office not long ago, admits to being contaminated with this stuff when he was young.
It was terrifying for them to be exposed to these things for the first time, and to be told by James, a pure American. Even if you stop smoking as an adult, some of the damage is irreversible.
The most dangerous thing is that some states condone marijuana, and it will not stop its trafficking, you must know that white powder is extracted from this kind of thing, how can it not be harmful.
Like antibiotics that are rampant in the country, marijuana is somewhat overused in the United States. Ordinary people need pain relief when they seek medical treatment, and the doctor will prescribe some, and if the child has ADHD, the doctor will also recommend a little. I really don't know if they think this thing is a cure-all, or if it's irresponsible.
James only got this thing because he followed the trend when he was a student, and once he got it, he couldn't get rid of it anymore and ruined his life. According to the official report released by the United States, drug users make up 8.2% of the U.S. population. The United States is the world's largest illicit drug market, with less than 5 percent of the world's population consuming more than 60 percent of white powder. Profits from the drug trade are as high as $80 billion a year, and the authorities confiscate only 1% of the drugs. Every year, 20,000 Americans die from drug use and tens of thousands are sent to prison.
The addiction of teenagers is even more alarming, with the number of people over the age of 12 who have used white powder increasing by more than 50% each year, and the number of deaths tripling.
What a horrible thing it is for addicts to die silently in the streets, to take risks to get drug money, and for young students to smoke white powder as a fashion.
Sometimes, when we compare the situation in China and the United States, we have to sigh at how much power has been invested in China to keep things that poison people out of national borders. This is probably the meaning of Xu Jiayu and superfluous ones, and there are too many comrades who Song Guyan does not know the meaning of their work.
After being abandoned by his family, James chose to give up on himself, living on handouts and street singing. Hoarse, inactive and useless.
In the disqualification of the world, it vividly depicts how the Great Courtyard Yezang fell step by step, and finally never recovered, such a life really has no meaning and motivation to survive. Never change, just blindly degenerate, give up on yourself, and eventually become a wasted person.
This life took a turn for the better until a stray orange cat came into his life.
When everyone abandons James, but there is a cat who will not leave because of the can of one dollar he gave, the hope of survival with respect is incomprehensible to outsiders.
The orange cat was not a stray from the beginning, but because it had cat plague, it was abandoned by its original owner.
The mortality rate of feline plague is more than 80 percent, and there is no medicine that completely guarantees a cure. James spent all the money, even begging the doctor at the pet hospital, in exchange for shoddy medicine.
A poor man is short-willed, and if he can save his dependence, James does not hesitate to kneel to the doctor.
When he is desperate, he feels very much like the protagonist in "When Happiness Knocks on the Door". When the protagonist blocks the toilet door, the tears that flow silently are the most heartbreaking moments.
Fortunately, the big orange cat survived the feline plague and quickly returned to normal.
Supporting each other, James survived the darkest days, and began to force himself to quit his drug addiction and want to return to a normal life.
The big orange cat couldn't understand what James was saying, and lay lazily on the couch.
One, two, three went over to tease the little fat man from time to time, and the big orange cat was not angry, and changed his posture and then pretended to be listening to James's story.
The big orange cat also figured out the character of one, two, three, don't look at Demu is a little two, but he is kind-hearted, and it will not hurt it.
Maybe it's been a long time since I've spoken to anyone, but James talks a lot. When he reacted, he looked apologetic.
Song Guyan and Chen Dongyu have already helped him a lot, and he has been nagging for so long.
Chen Dongyu's English is slightly worse, and he can't understand half of it, so Song Guyan helped translate the more important part.
After understanding James's story, Chen Dongyu didn't know what to say, just glanced at one, two, three and so gently.
The one, two, three, who had returned to normal were still very sensitive, and he turned around and looked at the shovel officer, and then shivered.
Chen Dongyu shouldn't be a fool, right?
One, two, three immediately distanced himself from Chen Dongyu to prevent him from doing anything bad.
Chen Dongyu has a black line in his head, and he can't express his emotions when he gets along with this stupid dog. No matter how much emotion you express, it's not as affordable as a big chicken leg.
……
At the Metropolitan Police Dog Training Center Hotel, Song Guyan held down the non-stop struggle of Zhou You.
"You stink to death, you are not allowed to go to bed without taking a bath!" Song Guyan said angrily.
Zhou You was made to death, and they have grown so big, so let's wash it yourself.
Isn't it just a matter of applying some shower gel, rubbing it off, and rinsing it off under the spray head. It's such a trivial matter, do you think I don't understand my IQ?
Song Guyan didn't talk nonsense with him, and walked directly to the bathroom with Zhou You.
It's not that I haven't let Zhou You take a bath by himself, and every time he makes a mess of the bathroom. Song Guyan cleaned up almost twice or three times as long as taking a bath, so no matter how much Zhou You struggled, Song Guyan would not agree to let him bathe himself by himself.
After putting on the shower gel, Zhou You felt Song Guyan's hand roaming over his body, wanting to cry without tears.
You're a dead pervert, and people are still in trouble!
No, the innocence was taken away by Song Guyan a long time ago, and he was bathed many times.
After washing and drying, Song Guyan threw Zhou You on the bed, cleaned up the bathroom, and took a shower himself.
After changing into pajamas, Song Guyan climbed into bed.
"Look at the ghost, you perverted dog!" Song Guyan noticed that Labrador's eyes were staring directly at his chest, and a pillow flew over.
Zhou You, who was already beside the bed, was hit hard and fell straight on the carpet.
Hehe, I lost my mind, I really lost my mind just now.
After tossing for a while, Song Guyan and Zhou You finally quieted down.
Lying on the soft bed, Song Guyan is actually not as plain as it looks on the outside.
When she learned about the story of James and the big orange cat, the impact on Song Guyan was very big. For no reason, Song Guyan recalled the time when he lived with Labrador.
In her most youthful years, she carried too many things. Especially when she lost her mother at a young age, her revenge made her choose to go to the police academy in anticipation of the opportunity to catch the real murderer. Even if her boyfriend at that time wanted her to study abroad together, Song Guyan refused.
I can't say who has failed anyone, I can only talk about not loving enough, and I can't give up my ideas.
At the end of the four-year police academy, Song Guyan was thrown by his father to the police dog base as a clerk, which is absolutely unacceptable for the proud Song Guyan. The desire for revenge and hostility towards his father filled Song Guyan with negative emotions.
At this time, Labrador appeared.
From the careful care in childhood, to the later training together and common progress, it has gradually worn away the negative energy in Song Guyan's heart.
James meets Big Orange Cat, regains his belief in survival, and begins to try to get rid of his addiction. Song Guyan believes that with the big orange cat, he will definitely be able to succeed. Because Song Guyan met Labrador, it healed her heart full of holes and gave her the motivation to struggle.
Live well to have a chance.
From the police dog base, to the criminal investigation corps, from Shanghai to Huacheng and Tyrande, Song Guyan is realizing her dream.
Song Guyan touched the Labrador's dog head, and Zhou You snorted in his sleep, and he didn't know what he was dreaming about.
The competition system of the International Police Dog Competition is a total of two days, and the first day is an examination of basic qualities, which will be ranked, but not eliminated. The next day is the main meal, and every link will be eliminated. Finally, teams and individuals are ranked based on the results of the two-day competition.
There are many countries and a huge number of police dogs, and the two-day competition system is still very tight.
When the genius was bright, Song Guyan took off Zhou You, who had not woken up, from the bed. Before the game starts, sober up first, otherwise you will be confused when the game comes.
Not all fighters can win a match with a yawn like Zhang Jike. Being able to represent the country will definitely not be weak. Especially for police dogs, where talent and effort are equally important, the population advantage is of little use.
At the end of the morning game, the most eye-catching performance was not the strongest Cuihua, nor the smartest Zhou You, but the stupid one, two, three.
This stupid dog has won the first place in several results, which simply stunned everyone in the team.
Of course, this is also related to the events of the morning competition, most of which are tests of physical strength and endurance, which are all pieces of cake for one, two, three.
As long as you don't have too much IQ, one, two, three can always be smooth. Chen Dongyu was also a little proud, after all, he had helped one, two, and three wipe his butt for so long, and he was finally able to raise his eyebrows once, which was rare in his life.
"Yes, very good in the morning. The leader of the team said with a smile, "Keep in shape in the afternoon, don't eat too much at noon, pay attention to rest, don't be confused." ”
Seeing that the trainers are in good spirits, the overall performance is very good. The leader of the team secretly calculated, and the team score was temporarily first, although they were not much ahead of the United States and the polar bears, but they were also ahead, right?
The leader of the team doesn't have a big dream, so he wants to make a merit and then go back to get a promotion or something.
"Woo~" Cuihua squinted her eyes and showed her big white teeth.
Who is this annoying guy, I know Bibi every day, and I annoy it to death.
Zhang Shanwen smiled wryly, and hurriedly drank Cuihua softly.
After all, he is a leader, and although he is a layman, he has not done anything to direct the work of the insider. At most, he talked a little more, so he wouldn't be so embarrassed.
Cuihua reluctantly restrained a little, but looked at the leader of the team with eyes full of unkindness.
I can't afford to provoke and hide, so the leader of the team explained the precautions and quickly slipped away.
The leader of the team is also bitter, I haven't been so for a long time. He can be regarded as having some power in the unit, and there are a few people under his command who can be called. But in front of a group of trainers, majesty is nothing.
The leader of the team can only comfort himself with the trainer to achieve good results, and he can get some benefits, otherwise he is really uncomfortable.
After the leader left, the trainers were much more relaxed.
The biggest hero, Cuihua, slowly followed the hair on her paws, hiding her merit and fame.
Cuihua glanced at the one, two, and three who were scurrying around, and her face showed a little doubt.
Isn't this broken dog always pestering himself, why did he suddenly ignore others today. This sense of disparity makes the arrogant Cuihua very uncomfortable.
Zhou You looked at the two dogs indifferently. What the hell is going on, one, two, three finally got out of unrequited love, and this cuihua who loves to ignore it has begun to pay attention to one, two, three.
You two dogs, do you want to stage a bloody TV series?
Zhou You pursed his lips speechlessly, with the irritable temperament of the two of them, as soon as they got close, Mars hit the earth, and it was impossible for them to be together.
I've given you the movie Bob the Stray Cat before, but in fact, it was written by an Englishman, and the author is also very good. There are physical books, but they are made into movies by Hollywood. The whole thing of the big orange cat, the prototype comes from this. The movie is a bit niche, and the expression is very clear, that is, the healing of cats to people. Of course, there are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand spectators, and everyone feels differently. (The pace of the movie is a bit slow, and there is a protagonist, I personally think it would be better if there were only orange cats.) )
