Chapter 62: The Old Negro III

That day, as soon as Shen Chong and Cody returned home from the police station, as soon as they entered the house, Shen Chong began to disinfect! Take off your essence first! Flush in the bathroom! Wash! As soon as he thought of the social scum and environment in the police station's cell, Shen Chong felt a tingling sensation in his body! After taking a bath for more than an hour, Shen Chong ordered Chinese takeout again, and Shen Chong ate a large portion of 'Gong Fried Chicken and Yangzhou Fried Rice', which can be regarded as a little compensation for his imprisonment last night. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info and then fall asleep! Shen Chong slept from noon to more than 6 o'clock in the evening.

Shen Chong got up from the bedroom in a daze, he walked down the stairs in a daze, the spacious room was deserted, Shen Chong really missed his daughter and wife Linda now, at this time the phone rang, it was Linda who called, and asked Shen Chong why no one answered last night? Shen Chong was afraid that Linda would not be at ease, so he made up a reason to prevaricate.

I said I was going to celebrate Independence Day and go to a party.

Shen Chong put on his pajamas and came to his study.

At this time, the night of Raccoon Town was dark, and the night was approaching, and Shen Chong, who had eaten and drunk enough, began to roam the Internet.

Shen Chong don't look at 30 and stand, in fact, there are still some childlike hearts, he will go online to the Chinese 'singularity', look at the anti-Japanese and anti-American, leave a message for the novels he loves to read, these days Shen Chong is reading a novel called "Sheng Painting Danger", to say that the author writes okay, but it is too slow! It's been a year since I wrote it, but I haven't reached the topic yet? Slow, slow can't wait, like a computer with a virus in its memory! So Shen Chong wrote on the message board:

"The article is simple, the words are incisive, the paragraphs are clear, and the author's writing skills are unfathomable; The characters are vivid, the characters are refined, the personalities are diverse, all of them are like knives, the edges and corners are sharp, and the descriptions of the characters can be described as vivid; The plot is interlocking, staggered, one after another, sometimes depressing and sometimes agitated, and the author's grasp of the reader's psychology can be described as nuanced; The story narration is comprehensive, the analysis is thorough, there is foreshadowing, there is interpretation, there are no dead ends, through the plain story to reflect the unique characters, and through a variety of characters to interpret the wonderful story, the beginning of each paragraph can be described as distinct, but later it can always be melted into a furnace, alas, people have to admire the great ingenuity!

In general, the writing is still good, but the center point is not fast enough, this book is "Sheng Hua Danger", everything should also revolve around this, otherwise don't take this title, it's too off-topic from "Sheng Hua Danger", it's just a serious off-topic, and the foreshadowing is too long, this is looking at "Sheng Hua Danger"? Or is it a glimpse of the civic life of a small American town? ”

Then, he began to play his favorite computer game "StarCraft", sometimes Shen Chong also talked to his black neighbor Cody about playing CS on the Internet, compared with Cody's anti-terrorism level, Shen Chong is really not a level, after all, he is a bachelor's degree in the American military, Cody can get the most headshots every time, and he likes to use M4-M249- and Graoke-17 the most.

And 'StarCraft' is Shen Chong's favorite! Shen Chong likes to use 'Zerg' to play the level! Especially watching those cute little Zerg start to grow, reproduce, and evolve, and the excitement every time he the Zerg army to attack the city and conquer the land, it's amazing! Watch as the enemy resistance struggles through the torrent of the Zerg army! In the end, I was overwhelmed little by little! Dense and frantic gunfire! Explosions! Especially when the human resistors were torn to shreds by the Zerg, the screams accompanied by the splash of blood!

Shen Chong could even imagine those in-game resistors being thrown to the ground by his endless Zerg army, their armor torn open, the Zerg's sharp grip piercing their bodies, and their sharp teeth tearing at their bodies!

The dust of the human nuclear bomb has not yet dissipated, and more Zerg soldiers are close at hand! They have no advanced and high-tech weapons, only the most basic claws and teeth of a species, they are not afraid of death, let alone selfish, only have an offensive consciousness of their own goals and prey to death! Any weapon and fighting spirit of humanity is so futile in the face of these terrifying-looking and infinite number of biological warriors! In the end, only a bloody corpse and corpses were left everywhere.

It's no wonder, Shen Chong uses other races, including the human race and the god race, no matter how you use and learn, you can't use it well, but once you use the 'Zerg', Shen Chong will soon be able to learn without a teacher!

"Ahh All right! Another game!! Yes! ”

Shen Chong stretched his waist! exaggerated the action of opening the big mouth when the 'zerg' bites!

"Cool! Alas! That's right! The clothes haven't been washed yet! ”

Shen Chong walked out of the study and went to wash the clothes he had taken off, just as he was about to wash his clothes, he remembered the photo of the old black man Mark found at the door of the police station, Shen Chong took out this photo from his pocket and looked at it, this photo is the size of half a CD box, it seems that it has been a long time, the original black and white photo has turned brownish, and the characters and background inside are still very clear!

Shen Chong put the clothes in the washing machine, returned to the study, and put the photos into the scanner. Shen Chong was on the computer and began to carefully examine the photo.

The place in the photo looks like a residential area, all of which are small American-style two-story buildings with gray roofs and white walls, and there is a letterbox in front of the door, just like my own home.

Under the blue sky, surrounded by trees and lawns, the background looks like Southeast Asia, probably the Miami area! It seems to be a middle-class residential area on the outskirts of a city, or some unknown country town in the United States, but Shen Chongjue's former possibility is very likely, these houses are all the same style.

Shen Chong choked at this time, and began to be attracted by the characters inside, and he used the mouse to zoom in on the picture.

In the photo, a tall and sturdy black man, wearing an American-style military uniform, with an armed belt tied around his waist, a pistol hanging on one side, two magazine covers on the other, and tall leather military boots on his feet, even in the black and white photos, can be seen to be polished!

He had a hearty and innocent smile on his dark face, and he looked like an officer. On his shoulders is a little black boy in a white shirt and bib shorts riding around his neck. The child is beautiful and lively, and the legs in small leather shoes hang down on his chest, and his face is full of childish innocence. The child was still playing with the boat-shaped hat on his head.

The black officer, with his sleeves rolled up to his elbows, revealing his thick, strong arms, held the calf of the child on his shoulder, afraid that he would fall, and next to him stood an Asian woman in a white robe.

She had long black hair, and she was standing next to him smiling naturally, looking at her 30s, probably about the same age as his wife Linda, she was beautiful and simple, and it was obvious that they were a couple.

Judging from his appearance, this should be the old black man named Mark who had a one-night 'relationship' with him in the cell last night.

"Are you handsome when you're young? Hey! It's a bit like Cody! Shen Chong said with a smile.

When he first arrived in the United States, Shen Chong, like many Chinese, looked at almost all black people, and it seems that after so many years, this sentence still has some basis.

Shen Chong took a closer look at the surrounding environment, the style of clothes the woman was wearing, and so on! He saw in the lower right corner of the photograph written in English: Saigon, May 28, 1974

This is in Vietnam? Vietnam a few decades ago?? South Vietnam?! American-Vietnamese War! He's a soldier! Was he an officer?

Shen Chong was thinking about it, and his eyes fell on a wooden sign not far from the family of three, just like the address in front of his house, which read: Building 19, Mark. Rogers

"Ahh Your original name was 'Mark. Rogers: 'Ah! Shen Chong said and tapped the keyboard a few times, "I'll do you a favor, you always have to give a tip!" However, I don't need money, so I'll make a copy for me to use as a desktop! Keep a memento! Shen Chong said as he copied the photo, put it in a folder, and then turned it into a wallpaper. I went back to the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of diet Coke and started playing games again.

The next day, Shen Chong was still the same, running with Cody to do abdominal push-ups, then going home to take a shower and have breakfast, and took a turn on the way to the bookstore to find Officer Mabin at the Raccoon Town Police Department.

As soon as Shen Chong entered the hall on the first floor of the police station, he saw Officer Ma Bin who he was looking for. He was wearing a police uniform and a lean body, with police equipment hanging from his waist, drinking a cup of coffee in one hand, pinching his waist with the other, leaning against the wall, with a sullen expression.

"Hello officer!"

"Ah, hello Mr. Shen! Is there anything wrong with you? ”

"Do you recognize the old black man named 'Mark' who got angry with you yesterday?"

"What? Do you have something to do with him? I know! He's not bothering you! ”

"No, no, I picked this one, and I'm here to give it back to him."

Shen Chong handed the photo from his pocket.

Mabin looked at it and froze!

"Oh my God! Damn it! ”

"What's wrong, officer?"

"It's nothing, I'm going on patrol. It's probably the whole class today. Forget it, you should go and give it to him, Mr. Shen, I quarreled with him yesterday over this, and you know the reason, and now they are all on fire, I will give you the address, can you go? ”

"Me?"

"yes, the last thing he wants to see me is right now."

"But I'm going to my bookstore?"

"I know it's too much, Mr. Shen, I could have brought it to him later, but this photo is very important to him, just like his fate."

Shen Chong was silent for a few seconds.

"Okay, I'll go find him."

"Here's the address. Thank you, Mr. Shen. ”

"That's right! Police officer! ”

"What's wrong?"

"Just call me Shen in the future. I'm not as old as you. ”

"Yes, Shen."

Ma Bin looked at Shen Chong's back, and felt in his heart that even if Mark is like this, I can't take care of him like this, our relationship was the same as that of my eldest brother and younger brother before, I knew that he had been hurt, and I also had my life.

Shen Chong lined up the new odd job, the son of the barber shop owner, a young black man, Gao Ge. After Davids' location, I went to Mark's house after lunch to return the photos.

Shen Chong's shop is on Oregon Avenue, while Mark's residence is on the southernmost side of Acre Avenue. Since it wasn't too far away, it was just walking.

Mark's residence is in an apartment building on Akere Street, a matchbox-shaped, six-storey, light-gray apartment building that is easy to find from a distance, topped by two large billboards from the famous Abe Layla company introducing the company's new products, toothpaste and a new fitness sports drink. The red 'parasol' logo unique to Abe Rela is located on the left side of the roof, and the stairs on both sides of the apartment building are clinging to the wall like huge evergreens.

Most of the people who live here are mainly low- and middle-income earners, as well as new immigrants who have not yet settled down.

Shen Chong crossed the road and entered the gate, the yard and the corridor were quite clean, after asking the security guard at the door, he learned that Mark's room was at door 211 on the second floor, Shen Chong came to the door, and was about to knock on the door, suddenly! Shen Chong heard a ** sound inside the door! It seems to be painful!? Shen Chong tentatively knocked on the door, and the sound inside seemed to be loud again! And, like on the move?! Shen Chong knocked again and still no one opened the door, but it was certain that someone in the house was in trouble! It just so happened that the door opened by itself! It seems that his master did not forget to lock the door, but closed it.

After Shen Chong slowly pushed the door open with anxiety, he was frightened when he saw a scene!

I saw Mark lying on the ground in disheveled clothes, his hands pressed on his abdomen, and his huge body was constricted into a ball! The facial features on his face were distorted by pain! On the shiny and dark skin on his forehead, beads of sweat the size of beans dripped down!

"Mark, what's wrong with you?!" Shen Chong stood at the door and said a little overwhelmed.

Mark raised his head, looked at Shen Chong who was standing at the door, and stretched out a hand to Shen Chong in pain, "Help!" I. "In the moment when Mark's consciousness has not completely disappeared! He felt like he was being held in Shen Chong's arms, and then he didn't know anything.

When Mark woke up, he thought it was noon the next day, he had an oxygen mask on his face, both hands were inserted in the infusion bottles, he was weak and weak, he had Ma Bin by his side, Ma Bin greeted himself guiltily, and told Mark that it was Shen Chong who saved him and paid the medical and hospitalization fees for you.

Mark nodded, as if to say, got it.
