Chapter 81: Winter Is Coming (2)
Natasha is an ordinary Soviet woman.
She once married her husband because of love and gave birth to a child.
It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and disaster occurred, and the meager wages of the two people were completely gone.
The food at home became less and less, and they even secretly killed their daughter Tony, and the whole family ate a meal of meat.
told his daughter that Tony accidentally ran away.
The daughter ate the meat that day, and the daughter ate it happily, God, I hope the daughter will never know the truth.
But even so, the food at home is still not enough to eat, and seeing that her husband is still reading a magazine with candles, she feels that she can't live a day like this.
Forcing her husband to go out to find a job, she took her daughter to play at home.
Without Tony's company, her daughter has been forced to stay at home alone, and she is really worried that her daughter will be locked up.
When two people, one older and one younger, were playing at home, they suddenly heard a burst of gunshots.
Natasha hugged her daughter's head and comforted her, but she was a little flustered.
When I played with my daughter later, I was absent-minded all the time.
The watch at home unconsciously went to seven o'clock in the evening.
Natasha was even more restless, her husband hadn't returned yet......
……
In the snowy slopes, a homeless man set up a pot in his snow cave, and under the pot was a simple stove made of his own, and in the furnace was burning red coal.
After a while, the snow in the pot melted and rolled.
The homeless man threw a piece of leather belt into it, and the pitch-black belt kept tumbling in the pot, and a foul smell permeated the whole pot.
But the homeless man kept sniffing the pot as if he had smelled something delicious.
Beside the homeless man, there were also a lot of belts, and even fine clothes, and the homeless man was now wearing a brand new, very warm clothes.
In the past, homeless people would never have been able to wear such clothes.
That night, Natasha waited at home for her husband who went out all night to look for a job, but he did not return until dawn the next day.
Natasha was worried about her husband, but she couldn't go out to look for them, their daughter was too young for her to go out with her, let alone leave her at home.
"Mom, it's raining......"
"Baby, I said, don't play with fire in the room."
The daughter once lit a fire in her room because of the cold, and as a result, the dolls in her house were set on fire, and the temperature of the fire melted the snow on the roof and seeped into the house.
"I'm not playing with fire...... "The daughter turned away in displeasure.
Natasha could only follow.
When she entered her daughter's house, there was nothing her daughter said about the rain, and she looked at her daughter helplessly.
I walked up to my daughter, and just as I was about to talk to her, I felt something drip on her face.
Natasha touched her hand and looked at it, then looked up again, looking up at the top of the room.
In her daughter's room, above the place where she was squatting, small droplets of water continued to condense, and after a while, the small droplets fell again.
This time, Natasha saw it clearly.
The snow melted.
That was the first thought that crossed Natasha's mind at the time.
The second thought is...... Leave.
Her father used to be a meteorologist, and under his father's influence, Natasha also had a certain understanding of meteorological disasters.
The snow in the Soviet Union is now so thick, once the snow melts, it will be a big disaster for people living in low-lying areas.
So, even if her husband hasn't returned, she has to plan to take her daughter out of the low-lying city and into the weather observation house that her father once built in the mountains.
However, people like Natasha who found the snow melted so early are a minority, and many more people don't have the opportunity to find the snow melting.
There are also people who find out that the snow has melted, but they are not interested in it.
The ski trails make it convenient for people to travel, and it also makes it not so cold when people go out.
However, the trails also block the view and prevent people from knowing what is happening in front of them.
Many people didn't realize that not only Natasha, but also many people in the villa also drove away from the impregnable villa castle with people and supplies very early in the morning.
Natasha is going to leave with her daughter, and before she goes again, she has to be fully prepared.
She cut her and her daughter's hair short and cut a men's haircut that easily covered her eyebrows. (If you really can't imagine such a hairstyle, you should consider it a non-mainstream hairstyle!) )
In this way, it will not be seen at a glance that it is two women on the road, and the safety will be improved a lot.
Then she found the protective gear of her husband's school football team, put it on her body to make herself look stronger, and put on her husband's big clothes outside, completely disguising herself as a man.
After packing up her things, she left notes for her husband in various parts of the house, saying that she and her daughter went to the weather observation point that the family frequented, and then locked the door and left.
The reason why they didn't leave a detailed address was because they were now two women, and they had left a detailed location, and once someone else followed this address, she and her daughter would be in danger.
After doing all this, Natasha and her daughter went to the garage to drive the family car out, and the two of them drove to the weather observation point.
Natasha drove intently, and the daughter next to her kept watching the sides with a doll.
Maybe it's because she hasn't been out of the house for a long time, and the little girl is so curious about everything outside.
Even the occasional homeless person passing by can arouse the interest of the little girl and make the little girl look at him for a long time.
"Mommy, Daddy......" Suddenly, the little girl pointed out the window and said this sentence.
Hearing this, Natasha immediately held up the car.
"Where's Daddy?" Natasha asked her daughter because she didn't see her husband nearby.
"There......"
Natasha followed her daughter's finger and saw a man buried in the snow, only half of his body exposed, with no clothes on him.
She recognized it at a glance, it was her husband.
Half of his body was covered with frost, and his expression was peaceful.
She covered her daughter's eyes and closed her eyes herself, calming her frightened and grief-stricken heart.
When she calmed down and decided to pull her husband out of the snow, a homeless man came out of the snow cave next to her.
The homeless man was wearing the same clothes her husband had worn when he went out yesterday.
After taking two steps, he stopped, then turned around, staring at the two of them with crazy eyes.
Natasha quickly started the car and quickly left the place.
After they had driven far away, Natasha could still see the homeless man standing there looking in their direction through the rearview mirror.
……
To the north of the Soviet Union, there are snow-white glaciers.
With a "boom", a huge block of ice separates from the glacier and slides into the water, making a huge splash.
There was also a faint clicking sound from other places.
