Chapter 14 - Struggling

Although Night City is prosperous, life is not easy, just like Ah Jin predicted before, they have no education and no connections, in this place that is better than paradise, they encounter walls everywhere and are constrained everywhere.

They live in the most rudimentary, cheapest basements; White water, pickles, and steamed buns are their three meals a day; When looking for a job, no matter how tired they are, they basically rely on two legs, and although well-wishers tell them that the subway ride is cheap and convenient, they rarely try it. In their opinion, instead of spending two yuan to take the subway, it is better to save it and exchange it for a small steamed bun is more cost-effective!

People say that big cities are full of opportunities, as long as you are willing to explore them.

But why are they turned away even the waiters in a small restaurant? This also can't blame others, people want a high school diploma, but they can't get it at all.

The waiter couldn't do it, so Yutong thought about going to the construction site to do coolies with his own strength, but the foreman didn't even sweep it, just squinted at her, and replied coldly: "I don't want women on the construction site, let's find another job." ”

Because of her slight appearance, Ah Jin will always be targeted by those indecent places, and let her do work such as a massage girl, a wine girl, and a female public relations.

At first, Ah Jin always refused, but the cruel reality gradually made Ah Jin begin to waver, she wanted to bow her head, but Yutong resolutely stopped her, Yutong said: "Ah Jin, no matter how difficult it is, you can't do that kind of work." ”

"But if we don't, we won't survive." Ah Jin sighed and said.

"Even so, we can't afford to fall, you know? Kim! Yutong anxiously persuaded.

The persuasion of his friends finally dispelled this idea. But the backbone can't be eaten, this is not done, that is not good, is it possible that they are going to starve to death in the night city?!

"Yutong, let's go back, I think we will plead for mercy, and the bookstore proprietress will hire us again." The cruel reality finally made Ah Jin retreat, and she was disappointed.

"No, we can't go back, if we do, you'll be drowned by the spitting stars, and others are pointing behind you, aren't you uncomfortable?" Yutong persuaded earnestly.

"Maybe they've forgotten." Ah Jin whispered slightly expectantly.

"No, Ah Jin, they won't forget, as soon as you go back, it will become a topic of "hot discussion" for them again. Ah Jin, believe me, there will be no life. Yutong once again firmly persuaded.

After a long silence, Ah Jin finally smiled and nodded.

In a blink of an eye, half a month has passed, Yutong and Ah Jin still haven't found any jobs, and their lives are becoming more and more difficult, and they have reached the point of not having enough meals.

The basement couldn't afford to live, so they had to be a female homeless man, so the bus and subway station became their habitat, and they "fought wits and courage" with the urban management personnel, fighting guerrillas everywhere, just to find a place to live.

The harsh living conditions finally made them sick, they had headaches, fevers, and weakness, and they lay in dark corners, unaware, and they thought they were going to die.

In the fog, a man of medium stature and resolute face was touching their foreheads with concern, taking their temperatures, and taking medicine for them.

It's strange, this time, Yutong didn't dislike it, didn't dodge, she let this man heal herself and Ah Jin. Inexplicably, a warm current surged in her heart, and she even hoped that he would not leave and stay by her side forever.

But he left anyway, leaving behind a note on when to take his medicine and a whole bunch of medicines.

A week later, they recovered, and found the newspaper wrapped in medicine.

When they excitedly read the information in the upper left corner of the newspaper "recruiting female workers, education, experience, age within 40 years old......... they couldn't help but shout: "We have a job." ”
