Chapter Twenty-Seven: Liv's Home
"You can't touch the seeds, and you still want to say it? Everywhere there will be some unknown guys who have the idea of seeding seeds, and then ......" Raff laughed: "It's also that the Authority won't hang the corpse out for public display now." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½foβ
"Don't worry, you have to do everything. You're all the ones who can recover your debts from the membranous lizard, and you're still afraid of a little girl? The little leader patted the young man on the shoulder: "Keep an eye on it, go and grind it slowly." β
"Grind slowly?"
"Of course, if you don't do it, you will lose your old capital, and you can still be in the mood to take care of other petty debts? Listen to me, run to her more often if you have nothing to do, and pay attention to her financial situation. Doesn't she get 30,000 a month? If you owe money for any month, you should pay attention. The dead skin guards it every day, annoys her, and makes her unbearable. Raff pulled down the oil paper and replaced it: "The Authority is in charge of personal injury to the seeds, you just don't touch her, there are other ways." β
"Do you think that asking for debts is to fight and kill? That's all stupid methods, and those who collected debts hundreds of years ago didn't do it. β
'Running to her every day?' Kaiyun swallowed, and for some reason, he seemed to feel the soft touch of the girl's right hand again. And the very good-smelling light fragrance on her body seemed to hide the scorching stench in the gasoline can, gently wafting on the tip of his nose.
'What do you think?' The boy shook his head and quickly turned his energy to business: "That's all there is to it." β
That night, Kaiyun pinned Liv's picture to the wall of her debt collection target. He lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. In my head, there is always a girl's smile and smile. The little robot butler sensed his master's mood and tuned the radio to a softly rhythmic blues tune, which only made the boy unable to sleep the more he listened.
He slapped the radio, got up and did dozens of push-ups on the ground, exhausting himself with a series of exercises. Finally, when he finally fell asleep, dreaming of his fascinated Agarta......
The girl was still beside him, and in a golden color, the two of them were talking and laughing on the clean streets of Agarta.
But the good dream didn't last long, and as soon as the scene changed, the terrifying mechanical monster with only the upper body appeared in front of Kaiyun again, and kept asking the same question:
"Where's the body?"
"Where's your body?!"
Call! Call! Call!
'It's been two days in a row...... What the?! Kaiyun woke up from his nightmare, braced himself up, gasping for air. In the past, when collecting debts, no matter how dangerous things were, he had never encountered such nightmares. He really didn't understand why this dream appeared so often after seeing the mysterious body at Technician No.
Inadvertently, with a twist of my head, I saw a photo of the girl on the opposite wall......
That strange dream, coupled with Liv's innocent smiling face, doomed the boy to a sleepless night. Early in the morning, the boy took down Liv's photo and put it on the table, with dark circles under his eyes, and got up early to go to the girl's place. He told himself that this was just following the method that Raff had taught him to keep an eye on this hot A-grade seed, but his footsteps unconsciously quickened because he might see Liv.
Once they have become Class AB seeds, the Authority will assign them a specific area if they wish, avoiding possible environmental disturbances from slums or other places. With this privilege, most of the seeds can't wait to move out of their scrap metal houses, large and small, and live in the housing built by the Authority.
And when she signed the contract with Liv yesterday, Kaiyun learned that Liv was a little different from these seeds, and after living in the seeds' residence for two or three months, she applied to go to an abandoned factory dormitory outside the slum. There, the girl adopted some homeless children.
'What a crazy woman. Kaiyun looked around the surroundings and muttered, "I can't live in a good place, and I ran to such a dangerous place." β
Any resident of District 16 knows that it has experienced a dangerous chemical accident. After that, it was abandoned by the Authority. Unlike the residential areas where huge factories are gathered, and the slums full of garbage, this place is not the same black sky and scrap metal as always......
Those abandoned factories and tower cranes stood like giant monsters in the dim light, and were blown by the wind from time to time, making a creaking rust grinding sound, exuding a kind of apocalyptic smell of everything dying.
When Kaiyun came here, he had to be extremely vigilant, paying attention to the homeless people around him who were eating in the garbage, and the criminals who were desperate to take risks for a mouthful of medicine money in the dark.
A homeless man with a sunken head rummaging through piles of rancid garbage and a dead cockroach in his mouth, looked at the boy and laughed. A mouth, full of mechanical fangs, bared like a beast. Kaiyun swallowed, pulled out a scarf and mask with Macia's fist and rugby logo in his pocket and put it onβthis was already a person who openly said that he was Macia, and more was better than less. Naturally, there is no way for madmen, but for those who are still a little conscious, with the prestige of Macia, it can more or less reduce the danger.
This is the original factory area, there is no danger to pass through here, and then walk about 1 kilometer, you will arrive at the abandoned factory dormitory area. Before he could get closer, Kaiyun saw a semi-circular building reinforced by steel plates and iron frames, standing alone in the ruins of a building.
The difference is that the wall of the house facing the main road is printed with a huge stripe. The lines are exactly the same as on Liv's right face, and at the same time, there is also an English letter 'A', which very clearly indicates that there is a Grade A seed with the highest security level.
From here, it was not clear that the girl was not at home, Kaiyun leaned over in three or two steps, and stood only five or six meters away from the building. The light that shot down yesterday still made him scared when he remembered it.
Although it was daytime, Area 16 was always shrouded in a dark cloud of black oppression. The boy raised his hand and covered his brow, trying to see the situation on the other side of the building: 'This place...... No security at all? Let's not talk about this woman, doesn't this have a lot of children? Are they safe and secure? β
By the way, what about the adopted child she was talking about? Kaiyun frowned: "Why didn't you see any of them?" β
Something is wrong. In Kaiyun's impression, the children in District 16 are basically divided into two types because they are not seed identities. The children who pass the first selection always appear in any place without scruples, running and jumping, while the children who do not pass must beware of organ traffickers and all kinds of dangers, so they become silent and rarely move.
But no matter which one you choose, you can always see them moving outside, and here......
This so-called 'adopted a large group of children' A-grade seeds, but I can't see any children?
'Cheating money on seed status, Macyan's bastard thing, really nothing good. Kaiyun cursed, gritted his teeth, and walked straight towards the building.
As he approached, he suddenly heard the laughter of children coming from a window on the ground floor. And the girl's melodious voice like a silver bell also floated out with laughter: "Haha, you are too cunning, then I will test you a little harder." Who knows...... The old Christmas Eve and the new Christmas Eve, which two characters are commemorated respectively? β
