Chapter 112: A Tragic Background
All-accomplishment does not mean all-knowing.
Su Mo only knew what he had experienced from a "player's perspective".
What didn't appear in the base game of "Dawn" and didn't write it in the official setting book, Su Mo didn't know.
For example, if you ask Su Mo when he can take a certain task, where to pick it up, and how to complete it, he can recite it backwards.
But if you catch a random passer-by NPC on the street and ask Su Mo what this person's name is, what he does, and what his background is, he will definitely not be able to answer.
Knock Dong is the second case for Sumer.
In the game "Dawn", Dongdong is just an NPC that can help fight, and can help fight after the strategy is successful.
But the producer didn't arrange any side plots for her, and her life story was not mentioned in the setting book.
So Su Mo didn't know anything about Dongdong's past.
And when the game becomes a reality, everyone becomes flesh and blood, even the unknown passers-by on the street have their own complete lives, and of course Dongdong is the same.
Hearing that Dongdong killed his family, Su Mo was shocked: "Why did you kill your parents?" ”
Dongdong touched the little wild cat, and his eyes became deep: "I didn't kill my mother, I killed the man." ”
Su Mo asked tentatively, "You said your father?" ”
"He's not my dad!" The thump suddenly became louder.
She clenched her fists and lowered her gaze, as if suppressing the anger in her heart.
"He's not my dad, he's just having sex with my mom."
"That guy was a gangster who took care of the bar, and my mom worked as a waitress there, and he took a fancy to my mom, and he took possession of her, and then he had me."
"My mother was very unhappy with him, struggling in the mud of life every day."
"I heard from others that after I was born, that man was obsessed with gambling money, and he gambled every day, and gambled for nothing."
"My mother knelt down and begged him to stop gambling, and the man scolded her, beat her, snatched my milk powder money and continued to gamble."
"Later, my mother was desperate, and in order to support me, she had to sacrifice herself to the rich customers in the bar, sleep with them, and get handfuls of handouts to buy me food and clothing."
"You may not believe it, but in the first two years of my memory, I didn't know what it was to be hungry and what was cold. Because as long as my mother is around, I will be able to eat and clothe me. ”
Speaking of this, don't turn your head to prevent Su Mo from seeing her face, and her voice trembled slightly: "Those people say that my mother is a cheap woman, and anyone can sleep." ”
"But in my heart, she's the best mom in the world."
Su Mo listened a little distractedly.
Yes, if it weren't for listening to Dongdong himself, he really couldn't believe it.
In a place like a border where people are not as good as dogs, Dongdong's mother actually gave her a well-fed and clothed childhood.
It's hard to imagine what kind of sacrifice this ordinary and great mother made.
Su Mo asked blankly, "What happened later?" What happened to your mom? ”
Knock Knock: "Later, after a long time, the man found out about my mother sleeping with the guests. ”
"He came back and tied her with a rope and punched her in the face for a whole night, beating my mother to death in front of me......"
When Su Mo heard this, he unconsciously clenched his fists: "So you"
Dong Dong turned her head to look at Su Mo, maybe the scars of the past had already formed a scar in her heart, she didn't shed tears, only those eyes were red as if they were stained with blood: "That night, when I was sleeping, I stabbed the man in the throat with scissors. ”
This was the first time Su Mo knew about Dongdong's story.
He couldn't imagine how painful it was.
Many people say that childhood is golden and always sunny in recall.
But whenever Dongdong looks back on his childhood, there is only a "cheap" mother in other people's mouths and a physiological father who is not as good as a beast.
Dongdong silently looked at the lake and continued to tell his story: "After stabbing that man to death, I wandered the streets alone, begging for food, rummaging through garbage cans, and stealing food from wild dogs."
"No way, although I don't have a home anymore, my life goes on, I have to live."
"Later, I joined a small group, a small one, a dozen people. People often form groups to cross the rusted walls from the sewers and go to the inner city to steal the rich people's belongings, and then bring them back to the border to resell. ”
"They were very nice to me at the time, they thought I was a sister, they would give me good food, they would go to bars together, dance and sing together, and they would take me to drag race. Everyone hooked shoulders and laughed every day, which once made me feel at home again. ”
Su Mo lowered his eyes and did not speak, waiting for the next turn.
The story is beautiful.
But Su Mo knew that the word "beautiful" did not exist on the border.
It's a bad land.
Even in fairy tales, there is only darkness left.
Dong Dong sneered and continued: "Of course, the group supports me, and I also have to contribute to the group. ”
"All the dirty, tiring, dangerous work, they gave it to me. Anyone in the group will do anything, and they will push it on me and ask me to go out and take the blame. ”
"Because I was the only child in the group, the law in the inner city could not control me, so the sheriff could only arrest me in the bureau and detain me for a few days, at most beat me up to vent my anger, and finally let me go."
"So, everything that everyone commits is carried on my back, and I am beaten by the sheriff almost every day."
"But I'm willing, because I regard the group as my family, I regard them as family, and it is right for my family to help each other."
Speaking of this, Dongdong's eyes became a little playful: "Later, when I was 10 years old, they went to a rich man's house to steal something, and the matter was exposed, and the other party was powerful and called many sheriffs to hunt us down. ”
"Just like before, I was pushed out to confess, and I met the rich man at the Sheriff's Bureau, and he only said one sentence at the time - abolish her."
Dong Dong subconsciously put his hand on the prosthetic body of his left arm, and his fingers were clenched very tightly: "The sheriff found a place without surveillance, and four or five people surrounded me with throwing sticks and beat me." ”
"My left arm was broken, my spine was broken, my lower body was completely paralyzed, and only my right arm and head could move."
"Instead of beating me to death, they threw me back to the border. Because that rich man thinks it's too cheap for me to die, and becoming a waste person and living is the best revenge for me. ”
Dongdong reflected the moonlit lake in his eyes, and said faintly: "I remember very clearly, it was raining heavily that day, and the road was full of cold water. ”
"I fell to the ground, crawled with the arm that I could still move, and kept crawling, crawling for more than six hours, and finally crawled back to the group stronghold."
"I don't really have any luxury, I just hope that everyone will touch my head, comfort me, and remember to share a bite of food in the future, it's enough."
She sneered at this point and said sarcastically, "But do you know how they reacted at the time? They told me to get out, and they said I was useless, and the group didn't raise waste. ”
"I will never forget the indifferent eyes of those 'friends' for the rest of my life, and I will never forget the eldest person, whom I have always regarded as an elder brother, who kicked me in the face."
She pointed to the right cheek three centimeters below the cheekbone, and smiled sadly: "Just kick here." ”
Su Mo closed his eyes and couldn't help but sigh softly.
He finally understands why Dongdong has developed such an irascible and aggressive personality.
Because the dark environment required her to be like this.
If you want to survive on the border, the only way is to be ruthless.
As cruel as others treat you, you have to be more ruthless than the other party.
If you want anything, even if it's just "alive", you have to fight, to grab, to trample others under your feet, and then your head will break and bleed and climb up.
This is the frontier area.
A cruel land.
The closest place to hell in the entire Crescent City.
