Hyde No. 3 Asylum.

A plate of cold water rushed down, and then picked up the soap and rubbed it on his head and body a few times. Lin Chu was wearing only a pair of shorts, standing in the courtyard taking a bath.

There was a bathroom in the room, but it was too late, and Lin Chu was afraid of making noise to others, so he simply took a shower in the courtyard outside.

The face twitched, but it was the hand that touched the wound on the back, and was whipped by the thin man in the afternoon, and he didn't need to look at Lin Chu to know that the place was now red and swollen, and it was really painful to be stimulated by cold water and soap.

After washing it in a hurry, he felt that the smell on his body had disappeared, and Lin Chu hurriedly put on a towel and prepared to go back to the room.

"O merry eyes...... Charming ......"

A jumble of singing burst into my ears, followed by three figures hooked shoulders.

"Quietly, a lot of people are asleep now. Lin Chuyi frowned and shouted.

"It's Brother Lin, I haven't slept so late. The three people who had just come in stopped their absurd singing, and the one with dyed yellow hair who was walking on the left immediately put down the hand on the shoulder of the other person, straightened up and stood still.

The other two looked a little drunk and staggered as if they were about to fall.

Shrugged his nose and sniffed a few times, Lin Chu's face was blank: "You three, go out to drink again." ”

The yellow-haired man who spoke was called Gai Fanze, and the other two were Shi Cheng and Qi Yi, both thirteen or fourteen years old, and like Lin Chu, they were all orphans who grew up in this shelter.

"Well, just drank a little, today on the street Brother Huang's birthday, we were all called to join in the fun, and we drank a few drinks as soon as we were happy. Gai Fan said with a smile, but immediately gave a big hiccup, which didn't make people think that they had only drunk a little.

Lin Chu was a little angry: "How many times have you said it, you are so young, you can't drink." Also, you don't know what that guy is doing with squint eyes, what are you doing with him?"

"There is food and drink, why can't we go, you don't know, how can we eat enough food in this house. "It's Shi Cheng who speaks, and I don't know how he grows, obviously everyone eats the same inferior food provided by the shelter, but he can keep growing up, only thirteen years old, and that head is almost one meter eight.

"Can you take advantage of the yellow squint in vain? let you eat and drink, and you will be asked to sell him in the future. What does he do, open a casino, and let you kill people and set fires when he can't say anything. ”

"It's so serious, we're just helping to run errands, pass on a word or something......"

"Isn't it serious?" Lin Chu was completely angry, "Now it's running errands and passing on words, and in the future, it's just watching the scene, lending money, collecting money, and cutting people." Squint-eyed yellow, that person will do something that suffers? I can't say that I will let you take the blame and go to jail or something in the future. Something good for you. You've sold yourselves, and your lives are so worthless, so ......cheap."

"Yes, our lives are worthless. ”

Lin Chu pointed at the three of them with one hand, and scolded violently, but was suddenly interrupted by Shi Cheng's words.

Shi Cheng straightened his neck and blushed: "We are not like those who are born with gold and silver, we can stretch out our hands with clothes and open our mouths with food." It's not like you, you have a smart brain, and you can be patient with your heart, and you can read well in an environment like a shelter, and you can be admitted to high school, if it weren't for the federal regulations, we probably wouldn't even be able to read the books we have now. What do you think we're going to do in the future? After two years and sixteen, we won't be able to stay here. ”

"If we don't find a way now, what will we do then? Do we really want to go to work in some factories or dig holes in those mines according to the so-called recommendations of the containment results?"

"It's not like you don't know how dark the people in charge of this shelter are, and the people who send them are all places that no one wants to go, what kind of collapsed mines that have been dug twice, and the keepers of wild beasts that have not yet been tamed...... That's really going to work hard, and the employment contract is signed for eight years and ten years. ”

"Follow the squinted eyes and Huang people on the street, although it is not very glorious, but in the end it is a way to live, at least it is freer. ”

"Just the day before yesterday, the news reported the leakage of poison gas in the sealed cabin of the Jiutian Pharmacy Factory, do you know what I saw? Several workers who were suffocated to death at the scene were Brother Ming, and Brother Ming had only been working there for two months since he got out of the shelter. ”

In the end, there was some crying in his words, Shi Cheng squatted down, hugged his knees with his hands, buried his head in and cried out with a whimper.

Brother Ming? Lin Chu was stunned, he was a person who often had a hearty smile on his face, he was happy all day long, and he didn't know where so many things came from in the shelter to make him happy, and the words that often hung on his lips were "Happy is also a day, and unhappy is also a day", I still remember when I first entered the shelter, I was often bullied when I was small and frail, and at that time, Brother Ming often hid a steamed bun and then gave him half of it.

"Alright, alright. Gai Fan patted Shi Cheng's shoulder, turned his head to Lin Chu and said, "Brother Lin." You're good for us, we know. But we can't help it, but don't worry, we're not brainless, even if we work under the yellow squint, we try not to get wet, and dangerous things will be avoided. ”

"Moreover, Brother Lin, you have been here for the last few days, in the past few years, with you, those people in the adult home dare not come to provoke, and the people in charge do not dare to bully us too much, once you leave in the future, we will not have to rely on ourselves. This is also for everyone in this nursery to find a backer outside. I don't want to live the days of eating gluttony and hiding the blade when I go to bed. ”

Yes, Lin Chu was also stunned, the shelter was full of orphans with no relatives and no reason, and those with slightly better qualifications were also adopted, and the rest were often some children who were not so good in relatively speaking, even if they hadn't taken the lead in confronting the managers and pit them a few times, it is estimated that they would have been adopted a long time ago.

There is also Brother Ming, you must know that one of the very important reasons why Brother Ming chose to go to the Jiutian Pharmaceutical Processing Factory is that the factory can make an appointment for three months' salary in advance. And Brother Ming basically gave himself those three months' salary, and I still remember what he said when he patted himself on the shoulder and persuaded himself to accept it.

"Live as a person and be an example to the friends in the hospital. And this money is not for you, and you will have to pay me back ten times as much as you earn in the future. ”

The words were still in my ears, but I didn't expect to hear the news of him again that it was actually his death.

Looking down at the long scar on his right chest, the ugly wound like a centipede seemed to remind him of the cruelty of this world.

Sighing, Lin Chu said a little lonely: "Forget it." It's too arbitrary for me to go my own way, maybe your path is not bad. I'm leaving, I can't control you, I can do whatever I want. Donburi, you are the most clever of the few, and you will have more eyes in the future. There are also a few of you, who are relatively old here, so let's take care of the little brothers and sisters in the courtyard in the future. ”

"We'll do that. Also, no matter where you are, you are also our Brother Lin, and if you are willing to take care of us, it will be too late for us to be happy. Gai Fan nodded and replied busily, Lin Chu called him a nickname to prove that he was really not angry, and at the same time pulled Shi Cheng, who was squatting on the ground, and motioned him to get up.

"Go back to bed, it's so late, be careful, don't wake up others. After Lin Chu finished speaking, he turned around and left, and his back was full of gloom.

Behind him, there was Gai Fanze's voice scolding Shi Cheng: "What are you doing to explain my brother's affairs? Don't you know that Brother Chu and Brother Ming have the best relationship? Are you sincere in wanting to make Brother Chu ......unhappy?"
