Chapter 152: Others
The car is driving on the road.
The boy sat in the passenger seat, covered in bandages, and the bodyguard was driving.
Except for the boy's occasional opening to point in the right direction, there was silence in the car.
"Smack!"
A plastic bag fluttering in the wind hit the windshield, stayed for a moment, and was blown away again.
The car drove to the slums.
"Stop. The boy said.
The car leaned against the side of the road, and the door was just opened by the boy and pulled back shut.
"You can't move right now. ”
Retracting his arm, the bodyguard explained.
"It's my business. You can go back first. ”
The boy pushed the door open again, placing a hand on his shoulder, stopping his next move.
"Do you want to run away, kill someone and still want to push the pot to us?" the man in the suit had a gloomy face.
Seeing the actions of the man in the suit, the two bodyguards frowned secretly.
The boy didn't panic a bit: "I want to run away, but it's because of something else." ”
"Oh?"
"Today, I would have had two tasks. However, I only did one. ”
The man in the suit raised his eyebrows, moved his hand up, and clamped the boy's neck. The two bodyguards narrowed their eyes, but did not move.
"Heh! Don't even listen to your boss? Are you bold, or are you lying to me? Don't fart! Give me an explanation, or I'll kill you!"
"Let's be honest, I've wanted to leave for a long time. ”
The man in the suit was stunned.
"Ahh
He screamed in pain and quickly retracted his arm, a tooth mark clearly visible. When he came to his senses, the boy jumped out of the car and ran into a bungalow. The two bodyguards rolled up the corners of their mouths in unison.
"Don't chase it yet!" he was furious.
However, the two bodyguards were still sitting firmly in the car.
The man in the suit stared at the two bodyguards in disbelief: "What are you guys doing here!"
"We are only your bodyguards, in other words, we are only responsible for your personal safety. ”
"A tooth mark, hehe, it's not even a minor injury, is it?"
The two sneered, so angry that the man in the suit turned red and white. He glanced at the two of them fiercely, opened the door and got out of the car, and chased after them.
The bodyguard in the back seat put his hand on the doorknob.
"Don't meddle. ”
"But!"
"Doing this is close to our professional bottom line. Think about your wife and children. ”
After a few seconds of hesitation, the hand on the doorknob finally retracted.
"Do you often encounter this kind of thing?"
"Not much, but there have been a few times. ”
"Do you really feel okay with it?"
"I can't get by. After this year, I will change careers. ”
There was a moment of silence in the car.
"Whew!"
A lion's roar provoked the two of them to sit up straight.
At the door of the bungalow, the male ghost in the suit crawled out crying wolf, dragging urine stains on the ground behind him. Seeing this scene, the two people in the car glanced at each other and did not get out of the car for the first time. Looking intently, a lion was hiding in the darkness behind the door, and the white stripes on its body that looked like bandages were faintly recognizable. As if thinking of something, the faces of the two changed.
"If I'm not mistaken......"
"You guessed it right. ”
"Uh, hehe, I remember something. ”
"Tell me. ”
"Not long ago, this guy said he wanted to hunt lions!"
"Just by his cowardice?"
"Who's to say it's not?"
There was a burst of laughter in the car.
"Eh, what are you going to do when you change careers?"
"Anything, it's better than this one. ”
"Needless to say, the quality of this line depends on which owner it is. ”
"What do you mean?"
"I'm here to find one, and when I find one, I'll call you. ”
"Good!"
"Alright, let's get to work!"
"Get to work!"
The car door opened, and the two walked towards the man in the suit who was limp on the ground.
At this time, the laneway behind the bungalow.
A motorcycle with wooden sticks nailed to its pedals, leaning against a wall. On the side, several teenagers, both large and small, gathered around the boy.
"It's all done?"
"That's all done, I'll leave it to you. The boy said.
"Rest assured, the plane ticket to the Rainbow Country has been handed over to Sammy. ”
"He should already be on his way to the airport, don't worry, he'll take your mother to the best hospital in the Rainbow Country. ”
"Of course, take the money to do things. If he can get into the university over there, how can he rely on his qualifications alone? He can't rely on the tuition fees you give him. ”
The boy shook his head: "If he wasn't the only one who could speak English, I would have liked to save up some money and let you go there too." ”
"What are you going to do there? or stealing?"
The children laughed.
"I have a sum of money left for you. Just under the wall behind the door, and you will find out if you touch it, and there is a piece of loose soil. The boy said.
"Are you leaving?"
"A wound, inconvenient. ”
"I'll take you!"
The boy immediately refused: "No! I have to go alone!"
"Why?"
"It's been two years since I became a lion, but no one else knows, thank you for keeping it a secret. But just hearing that I had an excellent sense of smell led the mine boss to take me under his command. Do you think, under normal circumstances, that he would have let me go, not to mention, I had ruined his business today and turned into a lion in front of his business associates. ”
"We know you don't want to bother others, or you'll be going to the Rainbow Land with your mother. ”
"Then be careful alone. ”
"Stuff and money, all in the bag. ”
Looking around at his friends from childhood to adulthood, the boy took the backpack from the hands of one of the teenagers, turned over and got on the motorcycle.
"You should also be careful, and for the next period of time, try to stay away from my house. ”
As he spoke, the boy spun the key, twisted the handlebar, and the motorcycle flew out with a "buzz".
"Goodbye!"
"Goodbye!"
"Goodbye!"
Amid the loud shouts of his friends, the boy waved his hand and easily turned out of the alleyway, walked to the street, and drove off into the distance.
......
The summer nights in the African savannah, when temperatures drop and herbivores mostly sleep soundly, is the prime time for hunters of all kinds to forage for food.
In a camp in the wild, several middle-aged people and a few young assistants set up a camera with an infrared telephoto lens aimed at a leopard found during the day several miles away.
On the dead wood on the other side, sat a white-haired old man and a man.
David Attenborough, a graduate of Cambridge University, was a BBC TV presenter and made cameos and voice voices for 29 BBC nature documentaries for 60 years between 1954 and 2014. And this 'hunting', Mr. David, is the thirtieth work you have participated in. ”
"Wow, my name is so loud!" the old man said in an exaggerated tone with surprise on his face.
Everyone was amused and laughed.
"Haha, of course. And I'm still a big fan of yours, and I've memorized all your classic quotes. ”
"Really, let's do it again?" the old man invited.
The man smiled and nodded, and said the first words.
"In my opinion, the natural world is the greatest source of passion. ”
The man paused for a moment, then started again, and this time, the two of them said in unison: "In my opinion, the natural world is the greatest source of surging passion, the greatest source of visual beauty, and the greatest source of intellectual interest." She is the source of all abundant and magnificent life, and because of this, she makes our lives worth experiencing. ”
In the end, everyone else joined in until the last word came out, and everyone cheered and applauded, and the old man was in high spirits.
"It's amazing, it's amazing! To be able to sum up such a precious and enlightening profound words in his life, he deserves to be called the father of the world's nature documentary!" the man sincerely admired.
"False praise, false praise. The old man was already so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut.
"By the way, Mr. Henry, we just met, and you haven't introduced your profession yet!
A young assistant in the photography team said with a smile, and in the relaxed atmosphere, everyone also looked at the man with full curiosity.
"I'm a scholar of paleohistory, so to speak. ”
"Oh, archaeologist, what about your team?"
The assistant looked left and right, spread his hands, shrugged his shoulders and shook his head, looking stupid. Along with the old man, the others laughed.
The man also smiled: "Actually, I'm here to wait for someone." ”
"Wait for someone?"
"Uh-huh, you see, isn't he here now?"
As soon as the man finished speaking, a louder and louder wheezing sound came from the grass beside him. The professional and high-quality photography team immediately recognized that this was the voice of the lion. They glanced at each other, immediately dropped their belongings, and ran towards the off-road vehicle not far away.
"Henry, come here, that's not a man, it's a lion!"
"I know!"
"Huh?"
They were all stupid, especially after entering the car, and seeing the next scene made them even more dumbfounded.
