Chapter 2 "Immortal Jump"?
During this period of work, because there was not enough accommodation assigned to work nearby, Li Zicheng had been living in an old civilian apartment not far from the corpse pit. The floors are not very high, but there are 12 floors, and there are 18 rooms on the first floor.
There are about 300 people living here, most of them infected with the virus, gangs, smugglers, etc., and some of them chose to move here because the rent in the city is too expensive for them to afford.
The apartment is mixed, so the security is very poor. In addition, the area is remote, and the government does not manage it, so many criminals have begun to do mischief, smuggling drugs, tobacco and alcohol.
The rent collector of the apartment is naturally also a gangster, and no one knows which gang it is. However, there is a reason why this apartment is so dangerous, and there is no water or electricity, but there are people who pay to live here.
Because, the gang also has their own management system for the apartment, the first is to prohibit fighting, stealing, and robbing others in the apartment, and there will be thug training on every floor.
With these rules and regulations, it's a lot safer than the outside.
In fact, there are many such apartments in the world, and most of them are also in the hands of these gangs.
Although the southern government wants to take back control of the apartments, it has been slow to do so because of the limited number of government troops. The frontier needs to be guarded by troops, so if it is taken back by force, then the remaining troops are far from enough, and if they do it, it will be those innocent civilians who will suffer.
"Damn, just arrange me to work in this kind of place, the place where I live is not as good as the guard room where the old man lives!"
The person who spoke was none other than Li Zicheng, and this was not the first time he had complained, since he lived in this apartment, he had to complain several times a day.
"What a broken place, I have to run to the first floor to go to the toilet, and there is not even a light at night..."
It's night, and because there is no water and the sewers are in disrepair all year round, the toilets on every floor are unusable. Li Zicheng can only use a flashlight every day and run from the fifth floor to the first floor to go to the toilet.
Li Zicheng took his mask and put on a windbreaker and went downstairs, and just after he came out of the toilet, a girl in a faded brown dress ran towards him, grabbed Li Zicheng's hand, and asked hoarsely:
"Brother... Brother, do you need service?"
After asking, she pulled the collar of her crumpled shirt so that Li Zicheng could see the scenery inside her.
Li Zicheng glanced at it, his eyes paused, and the girl thought he was fascinated, so she continued:
"It only takes forty..."
Seeing that Li Zicheng still didn't speak, the girl continued to reduce the price and said:
"Thirty... How's thirty?"
Li Zicheng listened, shook his head, turned around and left directly.
The girl still refused to give up, unnaturally kicked her high heels and chased after her, grabbed Li Zicheng and said:
"Two... Twenty... Is twenty okay? That's the lowest price..."
Seeing that Li Zicheng still insisted on leaving, the girl said pitifully in a voice that was almost crying:
"Please, if I don't make a penny when I go back, they'll kill me."
"It's not that I don't help you, it's that I really don't have any money."
Li Zicheng opened his mouth and replied helplessly, besides, even if he has money, he doesn't dare to play around, who knows if the person who served this girl last time was sick?
He has seen a lot of this kind of girl, whether it is a woman. Most of them are doing it to earn some money to support themselves and their families, but a small number of them are abducted by gangsters to sell yin. The government also turned a blind eye to this situation.
Hearing the girl say this, this girl must be the second kind of person.
The girl saw that Li Zicheng said that he had no money, so she had to let him go back, but the moment Li Zicheng went up the stairs, the girl smiled sinisterly, and then dragged her thin body and disappeared into the corridor.
Seeing that the girl didn't keep up, Li Zicheng sped up his pace back to the room. After all, in this kind of era, I can't eat enough, so I still have the heart to care about the life and death of a girl.
Besides, he didn't want to provoke the gangsters, he just wanted to work quietly in the corpse pit for a while, and when the captain's anger was gone, he would naturally let him go back.
Li Zicheng returned to the room, felt that he had only squinted for a while, and then heard someone knocking on his door outside.
"I don't need any services for this..."
Li Zicheng thought that someone had come to serve again, so he shouted at the door:
"Let's go! Don't bother me, I still have a job tomorrow! ”
After Li Zicheng finished speaking, the knocking on the door outside stopped, he thought that the people outside had left, turned over and was about to go to sleep.
But the next second he turned over, the door was violently slammed, and people outside were knocking on his door with something.
Li Zicheng felt something was wrong at this time, and was about to get out of bed and put on his shoes to ask what was going on, when the door was already pried open.
A group of people came in outside, and soon the small room was crowded into black, and five or six flashlights shone on Li Zicheng's body. Fortunately, Li Zicheng was a soldier, and in the middle of the night, there was a group of big men with axes, who suddenly broke into the door, and they were too frightened to speak, and Li Zicheng said calmly:
"Big brothers, are you looking for the wrong person? The little brother has just arrived, and he hasn't seen you at all! ”
"Looking for the wrong person? I don't think I'm mistaken! ”
The one who spoke was a scar man with a cigarette in his mouth, who looked like he should be the leader, quite tall, about 1.85 meters.
Then he turned his head and pulled out a thin figure hidden behind him, and said to her:
"Come here, let's see if it's this person?"
Li Zicheng's eyes narrowed, and when he looked carefully, he found that this thin figure was the girl he met when he went downstairs to the toilet just now. However, there was a red, swollen slap mark on her face than it had just been.
The girl nodded stolenly, indicating that it was Li Zicheng.
At this time, Li Zicheng seemed to understand something, this special play "fairy jump"!
Seeing that the girl nodded, the scar man looked at Li Zicheng and said:
"Good boy, new to the city? When you first arrived, you played white prostitution in Lao Tzu's territory? Believe it or not, I cut you! ”
Li Zicheng was stunned, he thought it was a drama of "fairy jumping". It turned out that it was this little who smashed it, because he didn't bring in a guest tonight, and he was afraid of being fed to the dog when he went back, so he said that he didn't give money to the prostitute.
Seeing that Li Zicheng didn't speak, he continued to speak:
"Now you have two choices, the first is to pay the money, and it is doubled, and the second is to be cut by us and used to feed the dogs in the yard, how to choose it yourself!"
After speaking, the scar man extinguished the cigarette in his hand, lifted the axe in his hand, and scratched it with his fingertips.
Li Zicheng's face remained unchanged when he heard this, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he chuckled disdainfully:
"And what if I don't choose either?"
