Chapter 93: The Situation is Critical
"Hanni...... Ahem...... Are you going to go again? ”
My sister Jennifer slept very lightly because of her illness, and she couldn't sleep when she heard a little noise.
Hearing her feeble inquiry, Yang Lingling didn't plan to pay attention to it.
With her playstyle, efficiency has always been a priority, and the setting of an "NPC" sister like Jennifer is useless at first glance, and spending time on her is tantamount to wasting time.
But I don't know why, Yang Lingling suddenly remembered Yang Wuji's words - "Just treat it as a parallel universe world." ”
After hesitating in her heart, the memories of Hanni's "personality" suddenly came to her heart.
After experiencing the wandering loneliness and loneliness of his childhood, he was extremely touched and grateful by the adoptive father's and adoptive mother's meticulous care for Hanni, and this strong affection was transferred to their own daughter, who was mentally handicapped and sickly after the adoptive parents' death.
So no matter how hard life is, the young Hanny grits his teeth and works hard for his sister's medicine and food tomorrow.
Perhaps it was also the brother and sister who relied on each other for their lives that touched Yang Lingling, and she walked to the bed lightly according to Hanny's habit in her memory, half-squatted down, and pinched Jennifer's hand:
"Keep sleeping, Jennifer, I'll go out and I'll be back before dawn, it's a good job this time, I'll make a lot of money, and I'll take you to eat bread tomorrow morning!"
Jennifer's pale little face reflected the moonlight in the dark, and she opened her eyes and looked at her brother worriedly:
"Hanny, I don't want to eat bread, if only you could come back soon......"
"Don't worry, I will, sleep in peace."
Watching her sister close her eyes again, Yang Lingling was silent for a while, turned around and picked up her wide coat, pinned a short dagger to her trouser belt, and left the old apartment building.
Her destination, four or five blocks from the apartment building.
According to the "personality", Hanni's usual work is basically doing odd jobs in the factory, or helping with transportation at the docks, and he can't earn a few dollars in a hard day.
But today is different, there is indeed a "good job" waiting for him.
That is to sentry the people who carry moonshine.
Two days ago, while he was working on the docks, a man who called himself the "Dead Dog Gang" called him over and asked him if he would be interested in making money.
Hanny knew that none of these gangsters were good people, but he was in dire need of money, so he agreed to help with the sentry.
When it happens, he can earn a full $5!
Although the Dead Dog Gang only told him to help keep watch when unloading the goods, and did not say what the goods were, Hanny knew that it must be moonshine, after all, moonshine was the most profitable thing at the moment, and everyone knew it.
He thinks he is quite clever, and he has flexible legs and feet, and he can run quickly, so he should not encounter danger.
Yang Lingling looked at Hanny's memory, a little speechless.
At a young age, without an identity background, he dared to follow the gangsters when he came up, and the danger was directly full, and this kind of thing, once it was stalled, he couldn't run if he wanted to, I really don't know how difficult this start will be.
"Forget it, it's a novice task."
She touched the dagger on her waist, and while familiarizing herself with the "attributes" of this body, she hurried towards the unloading place in her memory.
An hour later, Yang Lingling gasped, ran to the basement entrance of a single-family building, bent down and knocked on the basement door, at intervals of three long and three short.
Soon, the basement door was pushed open from the inside out, revealing a tall, thin man wearing a gray peaked hat with wrinkled features.
"Come on in."
As he spoke, the man turned sideways and let Yang Lingling in.
In the basement, there were dim kerosene lamps, several dark figures sat around a small round table, and in the corner were two teenagers who were thinner than Yang Lingling.
"You three, listen up," a middle-aged man with a sallow figure and a shiny head on his head chewed cigarettes while inarticulate at Yang Lingling and the other two teenagers:
"Wait until the next time you hear the movement, send a signal as promised, if you find a note (police), you will lure them away to Lao Tzu, and the ugly words are ahead, we will find out where your home is! If anyone dares to make trouble, Lao Tzu will definitely hang his whole family on a tree, do you hear? ”
The two teenagers were so frightened that they didn't dare to squeak, only Yang Lingling nodded in understanding.
She looked at the bald man in front of her, who was as thin as a piece of wood, and wondered in her heart where she could stab with a dagger to make a critical attack, stabbing the other party to death, and whether he would explode equipment or something.
Her green eyes, glowing in the dim light of the oil lamp, like a hungry jackal in the wilderness, made the bald man's heart faintly hairy.
However, Hanni Ken is a typical poor child, although he is only half a head lower than an adult, but he is thin and thin, his ribs are visible, and with a clean and delicate appearance and short white hair, he does not look threatening.
Therefore, after the man felt his retreat, he was a little annoyed and angry, and couldn't help but rush up and kick Yang Lingling to vent his anger.
"Wait, sooner or later I'll kill you." Feeling the real pain coming from her body, Yang Lingling secretly said cruel words in her heart - her name of "Silent God of War" was piled up with the corpses of countless NPCs and players!
The atmosphere in the basement was silent and oppressive, and after another hour, led by the man in the cap, several people pushed open the door of the basement, sneaked out, and spread out on the street outside the house in the direction they had promised.
Soon, the sound of horse-drawn carriages was heard not far away, and three or two horse-drawn carriages drove in the dark from the direction of the port.
Today's weather is very good, the moon and stars are scarce, and the "moon" of this world is yellow and red, and the moonlight is shrouded in people, like a yellow veil.
The three carriages stopped, and several strong men with loaded guns jumped out of the carriages.
Yang Lingling stood on the escape ladder of the building next to her, observing her surroundings attentively while looking at the carriage.
When she saw the strong man in the carriage start to unload, she suddenly felt that something was wrong.
It's so quiet all around.
It's the dead of night, but there's no reason you can't even hear the sound of snoring, moaning, or barking!
This is not in line with what she knows about the night from the "character setting", that is, Hanny Ken's memory!
"There's a problem!"
Her heart sank, and while she continued to keep her attention on the sentry, she quietly shifted her position and climbed to the top floor of the building in the dark.
As a result, by the moonlight, she actually saw that in a few alleys around the unloading site, many figures could be faintly seen! That's at least thirty or forty people!
Now Yang Lingling immediately understood that these people were sold!
The people in ambush in the alley are either from other gangs or the police!
"Damn! What kind of luck is it that the first time I took over the work of the sentry, I was ambushed......"
She complained in her heart, her mind turned sharply, she thought about countermeasures, and finally decided - to run away!
Those who were ambushed not only had a numerical advantage, but also launched a siege network, and the people of the Dead Dog Gang were simply turtles in the urn.
At this time, if she really reported loudly as agreed before, she would definitely become the first target, and maybe there was an ambush of gunmen in the nearby high places!
Even if it is dark now, Yang Lingling doesn't want to use her life to test the accuracy of the "NPC", you must know that according to the rules of the game, if you die once, you will be eliminated, and there is no chance of resurrection, so you must directly withdraw from this game test!
"Go home first, these people know where I live, and maybe they will slip through the net, and if they know that I am safe and sound, they will definitely treat me as a spy and send someone to retaliate. A real spy will definitely add fuel to the fire! ”
Yang Lingling's thinking was very clear, she sneaked down the escape ladder and returned the same way by moonlight.
After rushing home, Yang Lingling quickly packed up some commonly used clothes, some food and some change, and then woke up her sister, half helped and half hugged her to leave the apartment left by her adoptive parents, planning to find a place to hide for two days first.
Fortunately, not long after the summer has passed, the temperature outside is not too low, and the clothes and blankets she brought with her will not make the two of them cold.
Although my sister was very puzzled, when she saw the serious expression on Yang Lingling's face, she didn't dare to ask more, but tried to keep up.
The two of them found a random bridge hole and slept all night.
Early the next morning, Yang Lingling wrapped her face in a coarse cloth scarf and used the S$2 advanced to her by the Dead Dogs Gang to buy some food that was easy to preserve.
By the way, I inquired about the situation last night, and it turned out to be the same as she thought, the people of the Dead Dog Gang suffered heavy losses, seven or eight people were killed by the police, and more than a dozen were arrested, all three truckloads of moonshine were taken, even the wine cellar used as a basement was sealed, and even the boss who rented the wine store to them was tied up by the police!
After hearing this, Yang Lingling became more careful, and after buying food, she began to look for any abandoned houses or unfinished buildings, planning to find a random place with a roof and hide for a few days.
Then find a way to change your name, change your hairstyle or something, do some disguise, come out to make money, and find opportunities to find a way to other cities.
But what she didn't expect was that the revenge of the Dead Dog Gang came sooner than expected.
I don't know where she leaked her feet, just three days after the incident, Yang Lingling and her sister were targeted by the people of the Dead Dog Gang!
Although she immediately found someone wandering around their hiding place, and pulled her sister to run away from the other side in time, but because of her sister's physical reasons, the two couldn't run fast at all, so they were unfortunately blocked in the alley by each other.
There were three people on the other side, led by the bald man she had seen in the basement before, followed by two strong men.
The strong man's hard and powerful fist knocked Yang Lingling to the ground with one punch.
There is also a stall of sewage on the ground that has accumulated for an unknown amount of time, poured into Yang Lingling's mouth and nose, fishy and smelly!
Sister Jennifer's cry came from behind:
"Nope! Don't hit Hanny! Don't hurt Hanny! ”
While crying, she lay on Yang Lingling's body, trying to protect her "brother".
As a result, she was pulled behind by the bald man and kicked her.
Jennifer's weak body slammed into the cold stone wall of the alley, bleeding from her mouth, and she collapsed to the ground with weakness.
Yang Lingling endured the severe pain and fishy smell, and while trying to protect the vital point in the punches and kicks of the two strong men, she touched the dagger on her waist with her hand, and shouted wildly in her heart:
"Stinky old brother! What about cheating?! What about the cheating?! What about hanging?! If I don't come again, I'm going to fight with them! ”
At this moment, a thick voice like an ancient giant beast suddenly sounded from behind the bald man:
"Didn't I say that you weren't allowed to hit Hanny?!!!
