Chapter 151: Man is not as good as a rat
Another gust of wind blew, mixed with plastic bags flying everywhere. It's messy and dirty, and it's just unsightly.
But I don't think it's ugly at all.
……
It is likely that Dr. Liu was arrested by them.
After waiting for about four or five hours, I felt more and more that this was a big possibility. According to his ability, there was no problem at all in getting rid of a few people, and he was much faster than those people, and if he could find shelter or a favorable environment, he would definitely be able to get out of danger quickly...... But now so much time has passed, alas......
What's next? If Dr. Liu really has an accident, then he must accept this reality, cheer up, and plan the next step; If Dr. Liu is okay, he just goes to do other things, or he can't come here to join me for a while, then he will have to wait forever......
In the end, I decided to wait here for two days and see how it goes. If, after two days, he still doesn't show up, I'll take matters into my own hands.
As night began to fall, I began to look for a safer place to spend the night, the most sheltered places in front of me were already occupied by the homeless, and the rest was near the garbage dump. I walked over, found a decent open space next to the two or three piles of garbage, found a random piece of paper and spread it on the ground, and I lay down. This place is just blocked by garbage, and people outside can't see that there will be a person in the garbage heap, so it should be very safe, I think, even if Qin Lingjin's people come to search, they won't come here.
It's early summer, and it's a hot day, so I don't need to cover any quilts at night, but in the dungeon of the Tianyue Building, I have never covered any quilts, and the experience of sleeping in a harsh environment for several years has made me completely adaptable to sleeping on the floor anywhere in the world.
There are a lot of mosquitoes, which is an underestimate for me. And the money and medicine, this is my lifeline, I take advantage of the night, tie these things up, stick them under my armpits, and then press them sideways to sleep, this is the safest way at present.
I didn't say hello to the people who collected the garbage, and they didn't bother to pay attention to me, although my clothes were not sloppy, not like a standard tramp, but there are always some people in the world who don't want to stay in the crowd and prefer to be alone, so they are not surprised.
I was tired, turned on my side, and fell asleep at once. In the middle of the night, in a daze, I suddenly woke up...... I started to have nightmares again, and when I opened my eyes, I thought I was still in that dark dungeon, waiting for that little hole to open!
I was covered in a cold sweat and curled up in a ball as if I was in a dungeon. The nightmare came to mind, as if someone had opened the big iron door, and he was holding a big axe and slamming it down on me! When I was about to hit my neck, Dr. Liu appeared, and he took a chicken feather fan, and easily fanned the person away...... But another, taller and more vicious man, rushed in and slashed the great axe at my neck, and I saw my head fall off at once, and blood gushing out of the veins and meridians of my neck...... I could clearly see the head on the ground rolling, it was my own, and my eyes were still blinking...... Terrifying!
I don't dare to think about those details anymore...... Suddenly, I felt that my neck was itchy and painful, and I slapped it vigorously with my hand, and my hands were full of blood! It turned out that mosquitoes were to blame, and if you touch your hands and feet again, almost all of them are mosquito-bitten bags! I couldn't laugh or cry, and I thought that if I lived here for a long time, those mosquitoes would probably become my best friends, just like the rat friends I missed so much.
People are inferior to rats.
A lot of times, I think that's the case.
……
I touched my armpits, and the things were still there, and I was immediately relieved. At this time, I carefully observed the garbage around me: most of them were construction waste, and some of them were broken sofas and dining tables thrown away by others, as well as some broken hardware and old steel bars, which were estimated to be sold in a few days. Therefore, my temporary home is only temporary.
But I'm also thankful that everything is beautiful except for the mosquitoes that make me uncomfortable. Except for that nightmare.
If my heart is full of anger, I will not mind any hardships and hardships. As long as you can complete the plan in your heart, all the effort and suffering will be worth it.
I raised my head, looked around carefully, and looked at all the homeless people carefully, but I didn't find Dr. Liu.
Alas...... It seems that he is more than lucky.
I lay down again and looked at the cement slab of the overpass, which in the night seemed to be a huge python, winding towards me and pressing on top of my head......
The night sky began to brighten gradually, and the horizon began to spit a little bit of white, pale green above, pink below, and slowly turned golden red...... It was the scene of the morning light. Oh, my God! What a wonderful feeling...... It's been a long time since I've seen anything like this...... The darkness in the dungeon made me forget what it was like.
I stared blankly at the sky, goosebumps all over my body, and inexplicably moved in my heart......
I don't know why I was moved, but I felt that my heart was trembling all the time, and I couldn't calm down for a long time......
I stood up and found that the wound on my thigh was much better, and Dr. Liu's medicine was amazing...... I walked to the open in the middle and habitually did those warm-up exercises, because my legs were not good, so I couldn't run, I had to do push-ups, and I did hundreds of them in one go, and my face was not red or panting. After pulling my muscles and doing the fighting moves a few times, I went to the breakfast stall at the intersection, bought some breakfast with the money given by the doctor, and sat down on the ground to eat.
After filling my stomach, I started to wander around the area, trying to observe the area around the dump, especially if someone was chasing me, and how to escape from the best path.
The homeless men were still sleeping, and a few of them, probably hungry, got up and walked to the dumpsters at nearby intersections to rummage through leftovers...... I felt sad and remembered the steaming breakfast I had just eaten, so I walked to the breakfast stall, bought a few big buns, and walked over to hand them over.
They took it with their dirty hands and looked at me blankly.
One of them was the same middle-aged man with bad intentions yesterday, and he also took the white bun with his dirty hand, and smiled at me, and I noticed that his cheekbones were very high, a little ridiculously high.
Watching them swallow like wolves, my heart ached sharply, and my eyes were hazy with tears. I remembered how I was eating dry food in the dungeon, especially that time, when there was no water, and the dry food got stuck in my throat, and I almost choked to death...... These scenes came to mind, and I suddenly realized how kind and lovely they were.
If it weren't for the fact that I had a mission, I would have liked to have a good conversation with them. Every homeless person has their own story, and they may be reluctant or even disdainful to tell it to others, but it does not mean that their inner world will be barren.
From their eyes, I saw numbness, confusion, and resignation...... Perhaps, their lives are doomed, and they have fully accepted it, but before that, they may have struggled and tried, but they just couldn't do it......
I thought about it a lot...... Gradually, the sky was completely bright.
The streets and overpasses became bustling with traffic, and the bustling crowd was hurrying forward...... I remembered the shot of myself driving to work before...... I don't know why, I even remembered the situation when I drove to see Han Bing that day, Han Bing, this beautiful woman, I don't know what's wrong now?
……
Wait until tomorrow night, if Dr. Liu doesn't show up, I'll go it alone—I secretly make up my mind.
