Chapter 56: Born to be a Man
"He's an android."
The gang boss said seriously.
He described a very special family.
The woman used to be in a special industry, and she was pregnant with a few children, but she was all killed.
The last time she got pregnant, 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.
On that day, the gang boss also sent someone to send 2,000 yuan over.
"We are all scum living at the bottom of society, and some of us are living too badly...... If I can't stand it, I'll help it. ”
The man is a custom android who awakens during a violent attack by his employer, but luckily does not die due to the circuit breaker, accidentally kills his employer in the resistance, and escapes to this slum.
It just so happened that the newborn needed a father.
And so a family was formed.
Xia Chuluo had been here a few times before, but no one had told her that there were escaped awakened androids here.
This is a slum, and anyone who is found on the street may carry a case.
"Their family has been fine for a few years, the men go to pick up some waste, and the women don't do that kind of work anymore, they learn to do some needlework...... This person really wants to live a serious life, but he can actually get by. ”
A lot of people in the slums, the reason why they are in this place.
Poverty is one reason.
The lack of hope of escaping poverty is another reason.
So they went numb.
"That child is also six years old, he will definitely not be able to go to school, and he will be safe and sound in this life, who knows what kind of disease he suddenly got some time ago, and it will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to say that the operation will be better, and there will be various expenses later."
"In these days, human life is cheaper than grass."
"The lives of people in this slum, plus mine, are not worth hundreds of thousands, so why do you need so much to see a doctor."
"If I have this disease myself, I will live happily all night, and then I will go to my former enemy, drink when I should drink, and draw my gun when I should draw my gun."
The gang boss said it was the family's business.
They are also not easy to intervene.
"An hour ago, he came to me and bought a gun, I don't know where he got the money."
"Okay, I got it."
After questioning, the two expressed their gratitude and left.
Then there are the traditional polite words such as taking a little more rest, eating before leaving, and being inconsiderate.
The two left the den.
A soldier is a soldier, and a thief is a thief.
Many times, many lives actually only intersect once or twice.
Some people are enemies of life and death, but they pity 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, it's very likely that you won't find anyone, so go to the central hospital in District 15." Lu Wen said.
During the conversation just now, the two learned that the child was being treated at the central hospital in the 15th arrondissement.
The android bought a gun, and he was worried about what would happen next.
"Don't worry, let's have lunch first." Xia Chuluo said slowly.
"Again?"
Lu Wen remembered that the last time he had lunch first.
None of them were saved.
He still wondered if to tell Yun Yang.
"I'm sick and wounded, and I need to eat on time to get better quickly."
Well, that sounds pretty plausible.
Lu Wen proposed to find a restaurant in the 15th district.
But Xia Chuluo said that he could just find a small restaurant in this slum.
"Are you sure it's clean?"
"What are you afraid of, you're an android and you're still afraid of eating a bad stomach?"
The two sat in a small noodle restaurant.
Lu Wen could hear the sound of flies flying around him.
The table top was a little greasy, and he took a napkin and wiped it several times, but it was still a little oily.
The business of the noodle restaurant is very good, and people come and go, and the seats are full.
In fact, this slum in a better situation is similar to those small towns, with low buildings, but the buildings are denser, the flow of people is greater, and the environment is worse.
"Lao Chen, mix noodles with scallion oil, add a chicken leg."
The middle-aged man opened the freezer and took out a bottle of cold beer.
Lu Wen glanced at it.
【Duan Tiannan】
[45-year-old human]
【Homeless】
He turned his head to look at the others around him.
【Zhong Yuan】
[29-year-old human]
[Unemployed vagrant, with a criminal record]
……
【He Dalong】
[36-year-old human]
[Fugitive wanted criminal, bounty of 20,000]
Lu Wen sent a message to Xia Chuluo.
"You can meet a wanted criminal when you eat noodles in this place."
"If you dare to take him down in this place, we will both have to disappear today."
Xia Chuluo replied.
On the street outside the noodle shop, pedestrians come and go, and they can screen out those who are on the run.
Xia Chuluo ordered two bowls of beef noodles.
Lu Wen's sense of hearing is very sensitive, and he quietly listens to the sounds around the noodle restaurant, and in this kind of place, it is always right to be vigilant.
Maybe the uncle sitting outside the door setting up a stall is the boss of such and such a gang.
"It's boring to drink beer, but it's strong to be white." The owner of the noodle restaurant walked up to the middle-aged man named Duan Tiannan with a bowl of scallion oil noodles.
"The white hurts the body, and the beer tastes, in fact, it is best to be red, bitter and sour, a faint sweetness, and a sip is youth." Duan Tiannan shook his head.
"Everyone is a rough person, don't talk about that, look at what you said, it's like you've really drunk it." The boss laughed.
"Why haven't I ever drunk it, when I was young, even those wineries in other cities came and went freely......"
Really.
Do the men of this world also like to brag between meals?
A sudden sense of familiarity.
In the public channel of the Executive Board, Xia Chuluo sent a message.
"The matter of the gold store, don't issue a notice for the time being, don't release the monitoring, and let those unscrupulous media dry for a while."
It didn't take a few seconds.
Someone replied to a message.
"It's been released, and the monitoring has been released."
The respondent is Wu Yu.
This time, Xia Chuluo was really speechless.
"Let's go, I can't eat this bowl of noodles!"
"Pig-like stuff!"
Lu Wen probably knew what Xia Chuluo was thinking.
So now I understand her feelings.
He also wanted to scold in the public channel.
……
District 15, Central Hospital.
"Doctor Lu, this is all the money I can borrow now, can you do the operation for my child first, and then I will find a way to ...... the rest of the money" A thin man took out more than 100,000 cash from his backpack and pleaded in a low voice.
This money is still far from the cost of surgery.
In a nearby ward, a six-year-old child is lying on a hospital bed, his face pale.
The mother was standing by the bedside, not leaving an inch.
Growing up in the slums, she dressed modestly, and for the first time for this child, she left the place where she had lived for half her life.
Inside the office.
The attending doctor sighed, obviously knowing that it was not easy for the family.
"Hey, I'll apply, let's do the surgery first."
"You husband and wife can actually launch fundraising online, and now there are many platforms, as long as you have real-name authentication, you can upload information."
The thin man nodded again and again, his eyes were ruddy, and his knees immediately bent.
If he hadn't been held up by the doctor, he would have fallen to his knees.
At that moment, a piece of news suddenly played on the office TV.
News about the robbery of the gold store.
And a photo is given.
The doctor turned his head to look at it, his face changed sharply, and then looked at the more than 100,000 yuan that the man had taken out.
"You ...... money"
All that responded to him was the icy muzzle of the gun.
"Doctor Lu, I really can't help it, please......"
The thin man's hand with the gun was visibly shaking.
