Chapter 17: Rent Collection
Opening the roller shutter door of the garage, a strong light shone into the garage.
Looking at the light source, Ning Yuan found some huge spotlights, which hung in rows on the iron curtain in the sky.
It appears that the lower Braider Floor relies on these rows of spotlights to sustain the daytime light source.
The industrial power is really strong.
Looking down, he saw the petite Monina.
She was still wearing the pink doll dress from yesterday, and under the strong light, Ning Yuan noticed that the dress had been washed and turned white.
There are some water marks on the corners of the costume, with a faint smell of alcohol.
Monina was holding some rectangular plastic boxes in her arms, and the game posters painted on the box were yellow, which looked old.
"Brother Ning Yuan! You see, I've got a lot of games with me! ”
The little girl raised the games in her hand one by one and said, "Look, this is Ninja X Dragon Legend, this is the mystery of Kador, and this, it's super fun!" Red Dragon's Sky! ”
"So many games?"
"I've been saving this for a long time! It's fun, big brother playing together. ”
"Okay, okay, little Nina, my brother asks you something." Ning Yuan squatted down and asked, "Where did you make these eyes?" ”
"It was done at Dr. Smack's!" Monina laughed: "I used two good eyeballs, brother, do you think it looks good?" ”
"It's beautiful." Ning Yuan nodded, and then asked, "You are still so young, why do you want to change your eyes?" ”
"Because I was born blind." The little girl paused, lowered her head and said, "Dad has no money, he can't operate on me, and he stayed up until he was five years old, and the nerves are fixed, and the risk of reshaping the brain area is too great, so no one wants to do it for me." ”
Ning Yuan thought to himself: This little girl's background is really pitiful.
"But Dr. Smack is willing to do it for me." The little girl smiled happily and said, "Dr. Smack reshaped the occipital lobe brain area for me, and gave me this new pair of eyes, and the fee is very low, he is a good doctor!" ”
This doctor is not bad.
Listening to Xiao Nina's description, although this doctor has a strange name, he is very good in terms of medical skills and character.
Now the ability is liberated!
Ning Yuan made up his mind.
"It seems that he is very good."
"That's right, he's fine! He cured a lot of neighbors! Monina said happily, "And give me candy." ”
"Can you tell me where his hospital is, then?" Ning Yuan asked as he looked at Monina with a smile.
"Brother, are you going to pretend to be a prosthetic?"
"No, I'm going to have an ability induction surgery."
"Wow!" Monina looked at Ning Yuan in shock: "Brother, you want to liberate your abilities!" Be sure to show Monina when you get back! ”
"Okay, Nina." Ning Yuan then asked, "Tell me the location of the hospital." ”
"Hmm!" Monina nodded and said, "I'll share the location of the hospital with you!" ”
Ning Yuan took the sharing request, looked at the three-dimensional navigation on the map, and found that it was not far from here.
So he got up and said, "Nina, I'm going to leave now, and I'll play with you when I come back." ”
"Oh, okay, I wish my brother to unleash the high-tier ability!"
Despite Nina's efforts to maintain her smile, Ning Yuan could still feel Nina's emotional loss.
Perhaps, this little girl is too lonely.
He rubbed Monina's head and said with a smile: "When I come back, I will accompany you to play for a night, so that you can play games!" ”
"Great!" Monina laughed happily, stretched out her little finger and said, "Let's pull the hook." ”
"Okay, let's pull the hook." Ning Yuan stretched out his little thumb and hooked Monina's hand, turned around and closed the garage door.
Nina hummed a little song and walked away happily, while Ning walked towards the landing pad.
If you want to take the elevator downward, you have to cross the entire landing square.
In the center of the square, Hank was lying on a rocking chair basking in the sun, holding a bottle of beer in his hand, taking a sip from time to time.
It doesn't look pleasant.
After seeing Ning Yuan, Hank's face instantly drooped, and he said coldly: "You'd better go out and don't come back!" ”
"Hank, why are you so malicious to me?" Ning Yuan was annoyed by Hank's mean posture, and he asked, "What do I Ning Yuan owe you?" ”
"Heh, I want you to be a little scoundrel on the street, what, do you still expect others to give you a good look?" Hank took a big gulp and said in a huff.
Ning Yuan was a little speechless.
To put it bluntly, they just look down on me.
However, was the original owner a street gangster?
Some images come to mind, and the original owner in my memory is indeed taking over the business on the street.
Could it be that his original owner really mixed in the streets?
This damn memory, why haven't you regained it?
Forget it, bastards are bastards, he asked Hank, "You look down on me so much, and you still rent me the house?" ”
"I hope that one day you will die outside, and all the things and money will be mine." Hank burped and said unabashedly.
Ning Yuan really wanted to shave this old bastard's ear, but after thinking about it, this thing was Monina's father, so he gave up.
"How much better can you be than me?" He sneered and said, "I'm a lot older, I know how to drink all day long, do you have something to do?" ”
"What the hell is going on with you?" Hank took another sip of wine and sneered, "What are you?" Worthy of commenting on me, too? ”
Then, he pointed to Ning Yuan's nose and said drunkly: "I've seen a lot of street slickers like you, but I can't beat others, and I don't have any money, so I just mess around on the street all day long, and I still want to make a name for myself?" Hehe, forget it before it's too late. ”
"It's like you're pretty good, so you should buy Nina a new dress, and you know how to drink all day long." Ning Yuan couldn't help but scold: "Damn, I smelled it early in the morning, you drank and stained Monina's clothes, and she didn't change them." ”
"Who said I didn't buy her a new dress, it's not because it was left for her by her mother...... ! What do you care about me? Hank said with a disdainful face: "How do I raise my own daughter, and what does it have to do with you?" ”
Monina is a single parent.
A memory flashed through Ning Yuan's mind, Monina had told the original owner that her mother had been shot dead by thugs in her early years......
Died in the alley with her unborn brother.
Since then, Hank has been drinking heavily, not sobering for a single day, and losing his job.
It's no wonder that Hank would have such a lot of malice towards street gangsters.
But what does this have to do with me......
He felt like he had been in a senseless situation.
"......" Ning Yuan was silent for a while: "Okay, what do you like, goodbye." ”
"Get out of here before it's too late!" Hank said coldly, "It's better to get out of here and don't come back!" ”
"You think I want to come back." Ning Yuan sneered: "I'm going to liberate the ability, and when I become the ability, I'll move away, and I won't serve you." ”
"Hehe, you're laughing at me." Hank seemed to have heard some shocking joke: "If you become a stranger, I'll eat upside down." ”
Ning Yuan shook his head, unwilling to say anything more, and turned around and walked towards the elevator.
Once you've solved the ability, find a way to move out of here.
This Hank's brain is somewhat seriously ill, and his brain is pumped after drinking, so I really pity Monina, who has to take care of such a rotten father.
Hank's voice came from behind him: "Get out!" ”
“……”
Coming to the elevator, he pressed the electric iron button.
After a while, the elevator went up, and five or six strong men came out of it.
They looked very murderous with prosthetic bodies and tattoos, large gold chains, small watches, and pistols pinned to their waists.
"Fat brother, I heard that this Hank used to have a bit of a friendship with the Big K Gang."
When the fat man at the head heard this, he smiled and said, "Then we have to let him suffer some hardships." ”
After saying that, he rolled up his trouser leg, revealing a golden prosthetic leg, and said, "I'll take good care of him with this leg later." ”
Suddenly, the surrounding gangsters burst into laughter.
Gangster's?
It doesn't sound like the Big K Gang, but the Dahl Gang.
Ning Yuan lowered his head to avoid being recognized, and then he stepped out of the way and motioned for the group to come over.
The gang didn't even look at Ning Yuan, and walked straight towards Hank.
He was relieved that the two thugs they had killed last night hadn't been discovered by the Dahl Gang.
Resolving abilities matters.
He just wanted to get on the elevator and go down, but hesitated.
They came for Hank.
Maybe Monina will be in danger too.
Ning Yuan thought about it and forgot it.
I don't know Hank's family well, and I've only known each other for a few hours, so there's no need to stand out for strangers.
But when he thought of Monina's eyes just now, he suddenly softened a little.
This little girl is really miserable, her mother is gone, and she is congenitally blind, and she finally met such a drunkard father after recovering her eyesight.
She is still very kind-hearted and deliberately left a birthday cake for herself.
He thought for a moment and let the elevator go down, while he stood still.
……
In the center of the square, seeing the arrival of this group of people, Hank instantly woke up, he stood up, and asked tremblingly, "Big brothers, is there anything wrong?" ”
The fat man looked at Hank and said coldly, "Hank, we're here to collect security management fees." ”
After listening to the fat man's words, Hank's face suddenly turned pale: "I have already handed it over before, you can ask the ...... of the Big K Gang"
"Big K-Gang? Hahaha...... The Big K Gang slaughtered us last night! ”
The fat man stretched out his metal legs, kicked Hank to the ground, spit a mouthful of phlegm in Hank's face, and scolded angrily: "Keep your dog's eyes open and take a good look, we are Dahl's gang!" ”
With that, he kicked Hank again.
The attack of the metal leg was so powerful that Hank's stomach turned upside down, he covered his stomach and said tremblingly: "Brothers, my money has been handed over to the Big K Gang, I really can't take it out......"
Before Hank could finish speaking, the fat man kicked him again.
"Dick! It's so unlucky! The money actually went to the grandsons. The eldest brother rubbed his wrist and said, "Tell you, how much do you give to Big K's group of grandsons, you will give me twice as much!" Compensate us for our moral damages, you know? ”
"I really don't have any money...... Yes! ”
Before Hank could finish speaking, the fat man kicked him a few more times, and Hank, who kicked him, spat out a few mouthfuls of blood and splashed the fat man's legs.
Then he put his shoe on Hank's face and said, "I don't care what means you use, hand over the money, understand?" ”
"I ......" Hank said bitterly, "Guys, I'm just a jobless, I really don't have any money!" ”
"Then I don't care." The fat man snorted coldly: "Then go and buy these parts on your body, can you get together?" ”
"Don't bully my daddy!"
Seeing that her father was being beaten, Monina ran over anxiously, and the game boxes in her arms were scattered all over the ground.
The little girl tried to remove Hank's face and feet with all her strength, but found that she couldn't move at all.
"Nina, you go quickly......" Hank spurted a mouthful of blood from his mouth and said weakly, "Nina, it's none of your business here......"
"Daddy!"
The fat man smiled lewdly, reached out and pinched Monina's face to take a closer look: "What a cute little girl, with good eyes." ”
After hearing this, Hank sat up despite the pain in his body, pulled Monina behind him, and then begged: "Brothers, it's okay, a few days of grace, let my daughter go." ”
"Shut up!" The fat man kicked Hank in the stomach again, and the painful Hank almost fainted, and he was delirious for a while.
Then the fat man carefully looked at Monina's eyes: "Heh, the eyeballs of semi-biochemical materials, which are specially used to modify the brain area, can link the biological nervous system without damage, well, yes, not bad." ”
"What are you going to do?" Monina asked in a panic.
The fat man took out a pistol from his arms, wiped Monina's face and asked, "Do you know what this is?" ”
“…… Gun. ”
"Hey, hey." The fat man put away the foot that stepped on Hank's face, then put the muzzle of the gun into Hank's eye socket, and asked the little girl, "Do you know what will happen if I shoot?" ”
Monina looked at the black gun, and tears welled up in her eyes: "You let go of my daddy!" Please, let go of my daddy! ”
"Do you know what happened to your father?" The fat man grinned, revealing a mouthful of gold teeth, and asked with a demonic smile.
Looking at the fat man's fierce face, Monina was very frightened and said, "I don't know. ”
"Your dad owes us money." The fat man smiled and said, "I see, you two have good eyes." ”
Monina looked at the brutal gangsters, then at her father, who was kicked to the ground, and cried, "If I give you eyes, you can let my father go." ”
"Of course ......"
Suddenly, a shrill voice came.
"I'm rubbing! You fat man is disgusting! It's such a big person, bullying a little girl, okay to make a face? ”
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and found a young man with his hands in his pockets, it was Ning Yuan.
"Our Dahl gang errands, what's your business?" The fat man said sharply: "What, you want to find death?" ”
"No, no, no, I don't want to die." Ning Yuan sneered, stepped forward and said, "How much does he owe you?" How about I give it back for me? ”
The gang members of this gang of bastards don't even let go of such a young girl.
He wanted to just take out these gangsters, but then he thought about it.
These people have so many guns, and the bullets don't have long eyes, so it's not good if you accidentally hit Monina.
Forget it, let's break the fortune and eliminate the disaster.
Anyway, this money is not his own, and Ning Yuan is not distressed when he spends it.
Saving a life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter......
So he stood up decisively.
"Brother Ning Yuan!" Monina screamed in surprise and quickly hid behind Ning Yuan: "Brother Ning Yuan, save my father." ”
"Hmm." Ning Yuan nodded.
"Oh? Looks like you're trying to be a hero. The fat man looked Ning Yuan up and down, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll give you this opportunity, that pair of eyeballs is worth more than 100,000 in the market, and I'll count you 130,000." ”
"130,000?"
"Yes, 130,000." The fat man said mockingly: "With your poor sour appearance, can you afford it?" I'm telling you, heroes aren't that easy to be a hero! I advise you to get out of here as soon as possible! ”
Hearing this number, Monina tugged the corner of Ning Yuan's clothes: "Brother, this is too much money, forget it, Nina was born blind, and if she has no eyes, she just goes back to the past." ”
Looking at Monina's sad look, Ning Yuan rubbed the little girl's head: "Isn't it 130,000, don't worry, I have it." ”
"Ning Yuan......" Hank struggled to sit up and said weakly, "Thank you......"
"Grass and mud horses, you don't have to speak!" The fat man lifted his leg and kicked it again, wanting to kick Hank's body, but was stopped by Ning Yuan's leg.
The fat man's metal legs are very strong, and Ning Yuan really can't stand it if he doesn't use some unloading skills.
He felt a hot pain in his legs, but his face still pretended to be casual: "Fatty, you're not right, I said I was going to give you money, and you still fight?" ”
"Huh." The fat man's face turned red for a while, he didn't expect that his powerful prosthetic body would be held up by a person with a meat leg.
He looked at Ning Yuan with an unkind face, and then suddenly smiled: "Okay, you can pay the money." ”
"Okay, I'll transfer the money."
With that, he retracted his leg.
Hank looked at Ning Yuan calmly in front of him, and was a little surprised in his heart, which was completely different from his previous impression.
In his impression, Ning Yuan definitely didn't have so much money, and he was so calm in the face of gang people......
Hank suddenly remembered that he had never seen this kid shoot.
Thinking of his previous words, he suddenly felt a hot pain on his face. This kid may not be a street gangster, and he has a lot of background.
can easily hand over 130,000 yuan for his daughter, which is definitely not a small amount.
But why can't you even pay the rent before?
And I heard him talking to the gang before...... Did you hear me wrong?
None of this aside, Hank is worried about another thing at this time.
130,000 ah...... How to pay it back?
After bringing up the transfer page, Ning Yuan felt a little unhappy.
130,000!
The flesh hurts to death!
But for the sake of the little girl, bear with it.
"Thank you, Brother Ning Yuan, Nina will definitely return it to you in the future." Monina said with emotion.
"Haha, Nina, you can just grow up healthy." Ning Yuan said with a smile, and then brought up the transfer page.
Eh, the 230,000 start-up capital that just arrived is more than half gone.
But this is for Monina, Ning Yuan thinks it's worth it.
"Transferred: 130000."
After transferring the account, Ning Yuan said angrily: "130,000 has been given to you, you can leave quickly." ”
The fat man looked at his transfer page and asked with a smile, "130,000?" Where? ”
He looked at the sky and laughed, "Why didn't I receive it?" ”
"!" Ning Yuan couldn't help but scold: "No! Do you really want to collect money again? ”
"Haha! Hank, this old guy, I've got it packed up today! We're going to clean up all the people who come and go with the Big K Gang! The fat man sneered and raised the gun in his hand:
"I'm telling you, just because she's Hank's daughter, I'm going to fix this eye today, and I'm going to make these disobedient people remember it for a long time! You have what it takes to kill us! ”
Looking at the muzzle of the black hole, Ning Yuan felt that his lungs were about to be blown up.
It seems that the fat man has made up his mind from the beginning, he not only wants to swallow the money, but also wants Monina's eyes.
Is he so unscrupulous with his gangster identity?
Served!
He could finally understand why, at the last moment, Brand would say that Bravel's lower district was full of wildness, violence, and disorder.
I slept outside and almost had my organs harvested, and little Nina was about to be taken away if she stayed at home!
What a place!
It seemed that this matter could not end well, and Ning Yuan silently wrote down the location of all the weapons of this gang.
Later, he will have to strike first and solve the battle as quickly as possible, so as not to accidentally injure Monina.
Just when Ning Yuan was about to burst out, a younger brother behind the fat man suddenly reminded: "Wait! Fat guy! Isn't this kid the one who has the power! ”
