Chapter 5 Rescue
"Mom, will Daddy come and save us?" When the man was gone, I shrank into my mother's arms, for a ten-year-old boy, who would have thought of such a horrific kidnapping, at this moment, the only thing I could rely on was my mother.
"Yes, definitely, hold on a little longer, Dad will come to our rescue soon!" Mom whispered comfort.
In the dimly lit basement, it was impossible to distinguish between day and night, except for a dim light that emitted a crumbling light.
I don't know how long I stayed here, when everything was calm, the tiredness hit again, and my drowsy head rested on my mother's arms, which was the only warm place in the cold world, but I didn't expect that this would be the last time I felt the warmth of family affection in the world.
When I woke up, it was still dark in front of me, I thought that when I opened my eyes, all the disasters would pass, I was still lying on the soft big bed, and every nightmare was the same when I woke up, but this time, I woke up from the dream, and the horror was still there!
I pursed my lips and let out a rumbling sound in my stomach, "Mom, I'm hungry!" ”
Mom was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised her hand and knocked on the cage hard, making a loud noise, "Hey, give us something to eat!" ”
When I looked up, I found that the two strong men had set up a barbecue grill at the door, and two large leg of lamb were roasted on it, and the fat in the meat dripped on the charcoal fire and made a sizzling sound, and a slight white smoke came out.
The whole basement was filled with the rich smell of meat, which caused me to be hungry and drooling.
The two strong men glanced up at us, snorted disdainfully, and continued their movements, ignoring us at all.
Seeing this, my mother knew that it was useless to say more, so she touched my head and said helplessly: "Bear with me, when we go out, my mother will take you to a big meal!" ”
I pouted and said aggrievedly, "But I'm really hungry!" I can't take it anymore! ”
My mother looked at me with a distressed expression: "Mom will tell you a story, haven't you always wanted to know how the scar on Dad's back came from?" Mommy will tell you! ”
"That'...... All right! "I fought back my hunger and listened to my mother's reminiscences.
“……”
Mom's gentle voice seemed to have a magical power, and before I knew it, I fell asleep in a daze, forgetting my fears, forgetting my disasters, and forgetting my hunger.
I don't know how long I slept this night, I felt like a long, long time, even in my sleep, it felt like a century had passed, and no one could understand better than me what it meant to live like a year.
After all, my mind can't withstand hunger, I was woken up by hunger, my stomach seemed to be against me, even my belly was twitching, you can't ask a ten-year-old child to be able to endure the pain of bodily functions, so I looked at my mother again.
She didn't seem to know that I had woken up, her head leaning back against the iron cage, her hair disheveled, her eyes hollow, staring blankly at the roof, lifeless, like a dead person.
"Mom!" I screamed tentatively, but nothing happened.
"Mom!" I screamed in fear, and her body shook violently, as if she was frightened by me, but this time she finally came back to her senses.
"Woke up?" She looked down at me.
"Mom, my stomach hurts, I'm dying of hunger." I clutched my stomach and looked at her pitifully.
"Bear with me, you are a man, you must learn to be strong!" Mom said to me earnestly.
But at this time, I was so hungry that I was about to lose my mind, and my mother couldn't listen to her words at all, just kept crying and crying out about hunger.
What I didn't expect was that this was the last thing my mother said to me, if I was given another chance, I would definitely not make a noise, even if I starved to death, I would have to say a few more words to her.
Mom got up weakly, held the iron cage with both hands, and shouted to the big man outside: "Give us something to eat, otherwise I will die here, and you won't get any benefits!" ”
"Then you will die!" One of the big men turned his head to look at us, his face full of indifference, not caring about our life or death at all.
"Good!" Mom said coldly, and then there was a scene that I will never be able to let go.
Mom shrank back, turned her head to look at me, what kind of look was that, resolute, helpless, and dead.
I froze in place, and then I saw my mother suddenly move forward, hit her head on the iron cage, there was a loud bang, blood flashed, and the dazzling bright red flowed down my mother's forehead, and her body slowly fell into my arms.
I was stupid, and sat there in a daze, letting the blood stain my shirt red.
"Yo, this stinky watch is really not afraid of death!" One of the big men walked over with great interest.
"Give them something to eat, if they die, it's hard to explain it!" Another man picked up a piece of meat and walked towards me.
What brought me back from shock was not the tempting food, but a loud bang at the door.
......The iron door in the basement suddenly exploded, and the smoke mixed with the fire rushed to my face, followed by two loud bangs, and the iron door was blown away and smashed three meters in front of me.
I didn't know what was happening, it was all coming too fast, and when I came back to my senses, I saw an incomparably blazing white light in front of me, which was several times stronger than the sun, and there was a sharp stinging in my eyes, and tears poured out like a flood that burst the embankment.
"Ah......h
Although the pain took over my senses, I heard two gunshots, and then everything calmed down, and the cage was opened from the outside, and I felt a pair of large, trembling hands hugging me.
I heard someone calling, but the sharp pain in my eyes made it difficult for me to hear the voice, and after a while, my eyes gradually eased, and then I heard a man's howl in pain, the voice was so heartbreaking, so painful, so familiar, so ...... Father!
"Mr. Han, don't be busy being sad first, she's not dead yet!" A rough voice came suddenly.
"What? Not dead? Dad instantly raised his tone.
"If she is taken to the hospital immediately, and she is still saved, after a delay, her blood will run dry." Although the rough voice said words to save people, the tone seemed to be full of care.
"Yes, yes, send to the hospital, hurry, hurry, wife, you can't die, hold on, do you hear?" I heard my dad talking to himself in a panic.
Someone carried me out, I heard their conversation, I knew that they were talking about Mom, not dead, she was not dead, I was so excited, I almost forgot that my father had not spoken to me until now, if I had usually stopped doing it, but today it was surprisingly quiet, at least I knew that I was saved.
