Chapter 107 Take Me Away

Before Gao Yang could answer, Mrs. John Smith thought of something, her eyes lit up, and she said in surprise, "You are from China, John's boss found it?"

The strong man who was kicked down was still moaning, and the onlookers pointed at Gao Yang. Under such circumstances, there was no way to speak. Gao Yang smiled at Mrs. John Smith and said, "Can we Do you want to talk in another place? It's not convenient here."

Mrs. John Smith nodded repeatedly: "Of course, please follow me."

The boy who was rescued by Gao Yang looked at Gao Yang suspiciously, then turned around to go to the girl, and said firmly: "Come with me, or you will be beaten to death, at least don't see your father again until he calms down gone."

After the girl hesitated for a while, she was obediently held by the boy and stood up, and the boy said: "Wait a minute, I have to find my baseball."

After looking down at the ground for a few moments, the boy picked up a yellowed baseball from the ground, stuffed it in his pocket, and immediately walked up to Mrs. John Smith, saying, "Mom, let's go back."

Mrs. John Smith glanced worriedly at the strong man still lying on the ground, then at the girl pulled by the boy, sighed, did not say anything, but made a gesture of invitation, and took the lead towards her home. go.

Mrs. John Smith and his son lived in a tin shed. The tin shed was divided into two rooms by cloth curtains. Although it was small, it was clean and tidy. At least it could be called a home.

After asking Gao Yang and Yelena to sit down on the only two broken chairs, Mrs. John Smith said awkwardly: "I'm sorry, the house is very simple, why did you find me?"

After Gao Yang thought for a while, he said in a deep voice: "I am a friend of Mr. Smith. Although I only spoke to him a few words, he indirectly saved my life. Yes, I was also a passenger on the plane that crashed. , I was sitting next to Mr. Smith."

Mrs. John Smith covered her mouth in surprise, and said dumbfounded: "My God, there are indeed survivors. You are the only one who disappeared. I remember your father's name. He firmly believes that you are not dead. Thank God, you Really not dead, oh my God, your family must be very, very happy."

When talking, Mrs. John Smith's tears flowed down, Gao Yang stood up, hugged her lightly, and said in a deep voice: "I'm sorry, I reminded you of the sad things. I am here this time. I want to return Mr. Smith's belongings to you. When the plane crashed, I took the knife from his body. Then Mr. Smith's knife saved me many times. I think I should return it to you. Sorry, I wanted to save him at the time. Smith's, but he has had his misfortune."

Mrs. Smith nodded and sobbed: "I understand that his condition is impossible to survive. Thank you for trying to save him, but this is God's will. Sorry, I lost my composure."

Gao Yang took out the hunting knife from the bag Yelena was holding, solemnly brought it in front of Mrs. Smith, and said, "I'm sorry, I left some marks on this knife, I hope you don't mind."

After Mrs. Smith took the knife, she took it out and took a look, tears streaming down again, sobbing: "Yes, this is John's knife, he ordered it from a knife maker in the United States, I am very happy that his knife has been Helped you, really, and I think John must be glad his knife helped you survive."

Gao Yang nodded and said, "If it's convenient, I'd like to go to Mr. Smith's cemetery and thank him personally."

Mrs. Smith sighed,

Said: "Sorry, his cemetery is in Ethiopia. We don't have the money to bring his body back, and no one is willing to pay to help us."

Although disappointed, Gao Yang was not too surprised. Seeing Mrs. Smith's situation, she knew that she would not be able to transport a corpse from Ethiopia back to South Africa if no one else came forward.

Gao Yang took out all the dollars he brought, and said in a deep voice: "I can see that your current situation is not very good, this is not much money, please accept it first, I have no other intentions, I just want to Do something for Mr. Smith, and if you need any help, please don't hesitate to ask, I will try my best to help you."

Mrs. Smith looked at Gao Yang, shook her head and said: "No, thank you, I can't accept your money. I understand your kindness, but John is very happy to help his friends. Out of respect for him, I can't accept your money , but I have to say thank you, you're a nice guy."

Holding the money, Gao Yang felt that it was not good to forcibly hand it over to Mrs. Smith, but he couldn’t do it just by taking the money back. It’s fine if he didn’t know about it, but seeing Mrs. Smith’s dire situation with his own eyes, he really couldn’t ignore it. .

When Gao Yang was in a dilemma, Mrs. Smith's son suddenly said: "Hi sir, my name is Frye, this is my girlfriend, and her name is Ella. My mother and I are very grateful for your kindness, but some money can't help you." Change our situation, you look like a rich man, I am very presumptuous to ask you, can you give me a job? As long as I have a job, I can change my life and my mother's life, I can do anything ,anything!"

Frye looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, and his girlfriend looked younger, about fifteen or sixteen years old. She still had an immature face and was dressed in shabby clothes. She didn't look very beautiful but neither Ugly, but a big bruise on her forehead made her look pathetic.

Gao Yang thought for a while and sighed, "I'm sorry, I can't give you a job."

Fry looked disappointed, he shook his head, sighed and stopped talking.

Gao Yang hesitated and said: "As a white person, shouldn't it be easy to find a job in South Africa? I know that your situation has changed a lot since the end of partition, but it shouldn't be difficult to find a job, right?"

Mrs. Smith smiled bitterly: "Both John and I used to be employees of the South African government, he was a professor at a university, and I was a government official, but John used to be a militiaman, and he was involved in arresting terrorists, so the partition ended He got fired shortly thereafter and couldn't find any work, and I couldn't get any work after I was fired, and after John died we couldn't pay the rent anymore and had to move here, now South Africa , all the job opportunities are in the hands of black people, they will not give Fry any position, in fact, the white people who live here are in this situation, we have no choice but to gather here by doing odd jobs and begging for a living."

Frye said indignantly: "Those black people can't even turn on computers, but the government still only gives them jobs. They have messed up this country. If my father had money, we would have left this country long ago."

Gao Yang sighed and said, "Sorry, I don't intend to discuss the policies of the South African government, but I can give you a sum of money to let you leave the country. As for jobs, I can't provide them."

Frye looked at Gao Yang and said, "You look rich, can you tell me what kind of job you do?"

Gao Yang thought for a while, and finally said: "I'm sorry, I can't tell you this."

Frye said: "Sir, I want to take my mother and my girlfriend out of here. As long as I can leave, I can go anywhere. I swear that I will return the money to you."

Gao Yang nodded immediately and said: "There is no problem with this, I can give you as much money as you need, as long as I have it."

Mrs. Smith looked hesitant, and finally sighed: "Fry, you only have a junior high school education, you can't find a good job, and you still have to take Ella and me, where can we go?"

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Smith smiled apologetically at Gao Yang, and said, "Thank you for your kindness. If possible, I hope you can sponsor Frye to leave, but I can't ask for more. Ella and I can wait for him After making money, we will pick us up and leave."

Frye was a little excited, and said: "Mom, if I leave, Ella will be beaten to death by her father, don't you see what happened to Ella today? As long as I work hard, I will be able to support you, and I will also return the money to this gentleman."

After Frye finished speaking, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. He smiled embarrassedly, and said to Gao Yang: "Sorry, my mother and I are too excited, we don't even know your name yet."

Gao Yang also smiled awkwardly. After hesitating for a while, he decided to tell the truth.

"Sorry, my name is Gao Yang, but please don't mention to anyone that I have come to you, because I am in trouble in China, and you may deal with Chinese people in the future, so please be sure to keep a secret for me. "

Fry's eyes lit up immediately, he looked at Gao Yang and said, "I understand, you committed a crime, that's why you are so rich, sir, I don't care what you do, I can be your best helper, trust me , no matter what you do, please give me a job, swear in the name of my father, I will be loyal to you!"

Mrs. Smith's complexion changed drastically, and she said sharply, "Fry, what are you talking about?"

Gao Yang said embarrassingly: "I'm sorry, the job I do doesn't seem to be a crime, but it might be a crime, it depends on the country's law, and my job is very dangerous, well, I'd better tell you guys, I'm a mercenary."

Fry immediately said: "Mercenaries are not a crime, but they can make a lot of money. Damn, why didn't I think of it before, sir, please accept me, I can do everything for you!"

Mrs. Smith said sharply: "Fry, you are only seventeen years old, what you should do is to find a job, the profession of mercenary is not suitable for you!"

Frye turned around and opened his hands to his mother, and said with a wry smile: "Mom, don't you know that I used to work for drug criminals? Don't you know that I shot and killed two drug dealers who were robbing land for them? You do know , I do this and they only give me a thousand rand, just because I'm white, just because they know I need that thousand rand, dare to kill for a thousand rand, you know there is no thousand rand , Ella is dead. Also, Ella’s father beat her again today, if she doesn’t want to leave, Ella will die sooner or later, and you and me, that bastard will not let us go, so I think , the profession of mercenary is the most suitable for me."

Mrs. Smith finally couldn't bear it any longer, she covered her face and cried bitterly, while Ella hugged Frye and started crying too, Yelena sighed, looked at Gao Yang and said, "Maybe you should give him a chance."
