Chapter 616 A Guide to Mutation of Abyssal Residents (1)
"Sir, feel it with your hand."
At the corner of the street, where the street lights couldn't reach, a skinny man stood in front of Lu Li. He opened his tattered clothes while talking.
"See? I am really suitable for anatomists. Every bone is clearly defined."
"Sir, I'm getting thinner day by day, because of the lack of nutritious food, I'm really getting thinner day by day! Just feel my ribs and you'll know."
The man in front of him became more and more excited as he talked.
As a last resort, Lu Li reached under his shirt and touched it lightly. As the man said, the touch was no different from touching a washboard.
The reason why this scene happened was because after Lu Li went to the nearby police station to hand in the mission, he met this man on the side of the road. He called himself Jack, a bad street name.
Jack is a coachman, and he uses the power of his feet to send guests where he wants to go, rather than the power of animals. In fact, he is destined to not be able to support livestock like this.
Out of good intentions, Lu Li reminded the man that the world is not stable recently, so it is best not to go out in the middle of the night or in dense fog.
Then, he began to complain about convenience, talking about how difficult life is, that if he does not work for one day, he will not be able to eat, and the rent will be due in two days.
On the one hand, it is starving to death, and on the other hand, it is being swallowed by weirdness. Anyway, it is death, just choose the strangest way of death.
After all, Jack knew how bad it was to be hungry, and he didn't want to starve and wait for death.
"Let me treat you to dinner."
Lu Li sighed, and planned to spend 20 minutes with the poor man in front of him. He knew how terrible obsession and resentment were—
The reason why Ms. Meacham and the cafe she runs is so magical is probably because of the power drawn from obsession.
And Jack happily accepted the invitation.
One has to ensure that one is alive first, so that one is qualified to talk about dignity.
"Sir, in fact, I have enjoyed seven years and four months of happiness." Jack was walking on the road, and Lu Li was helping to pull the cart. A passer-by waved to him to get in the cart, but he shook his head and refused.
At this moment, he indulged in the memory of his old life, but it was not good.
"At that time, I had a good wife and three beautiful little girls, but they all died. The girls were infected with scarlet fever. Even if they emptied their savings, it didn't help at all. They passed away within two weeks."
While Lu Li was listening, he walked towards the restaurant. There were still some money-hungry businessmen who did not go out of business. Soon, the two brought a fly restaurant.
Bratwurst sandwich: 4p.
Half pound cold meat: 7p.
Brisket for two: 5p.
Offcuts: 1 penny.
...
A row of alloy utensils are placed on the long window panel, like a small bathtub to catch the oil dripping from the hot roasted knuckles, and there are several pots of boiled beef next to it, which are strung together with metal nails.
Seeing the driver swallowing the roasted elbow, Lu Li ordered one for him. At the same time, he thought to himself:
After this guy finished eating, he followed the smell to Wensley to confirm the connection between him and the young "Xibei guy" in the cafe.
If the Wensley he knew wasn't affected much and could return to normal after a night's sleep, then it would be up to the two of them.
If his condition deteriorates, or even disappears, he can only find a way to save the person and get everything back on track. As for how to develop next, it is up to the person concerned to decide.
With something hidden in his mind, Lu Li inevitably lost his mind. Opposite him, Jack was still rambling. After all, this poor man has been silent and suppressed for too long, and no one has been willing to sit down and listen to him for a long time.
Tonight, it is rare to meet a kind person. It is really good luck.
Jack thought to himself.
So, he changed the topic to a more pleasant one, talking about all kinds of delicacies, and what good dishes his wife would cook in the past.
Lu Li listened absentmindedly, and thought to himself: Without a wife or a child, his own condition is very poor, whether it is physical condition or financial condition, it is all worrying.
Frankly speaking, when the spiritual tide is revived, every poor person is like a time bomb, which will explode at any time. The most terrifying thing is that there are too many poor people to count, and the number far exceeds that of the middle class and rich people living in the West District.
Where can it be saved?
Unless people are organized and a violent action is launched only against the upper class, the redistribution of social resources is completed in the simplest and most brutal way.
"I once went three days without eating anything."
After eating the big elbow, the coachman leaned back on the chair. It had been a long time since he had eaten so much. He picked his teeth with a bamboo stick, feeling inexplicable, "At that time, my wife and daughter had just died, and my family had no savings, nor Mind working, only a little orange peel in my stomach."
"But you are full now, don't think about these sad pasts anymore, and look forward to everything."
At this moment, Lu Li was having a headache. His original intention was to let the coachman have a full meal and give him a sum of money to make him feel better.
As a result, things backfired.
Jack was full, and his almost exhausted energy was replenished, and then, he began to recall the sad past, as if reminiscing about bitterness and sweetness.
Because of this, he ignored the gentleman who gave him a meal, and still babbled, wanting to confide all his thoughts:
"For three days, I only ate a piece of orange peel, and cried in the cheap rental house during the day until I fell into a coma."
"After waking up, driven by the instinct to eat, I wandered the streets, looking for anything to swallow on the ground like scavengers."
"In that case, I was so desperate that I decided to put all my eggs in one basket." Thanks to the presence of a well-dressed Lu Li, Jack managed to get a half bottle of gin, and he drank it, and soon became drunk.
"Sir, you should be able to understand what I mean. I just wanted to do a big case, but at dawn, I returned to normal. My weak body was hungry and cold, and I couldn't even kill a mouse."
After being treated so unfairly, normal people would think of revenge for everything.
There can be no exceptions!
So, this is what Lu Li has always been worried about. Jack had planned to make a big case, but because of hunger, he couldn't even kill a mouse, so he had to give up. That is, he was powerless.
The spiritual wave gives everyone the opportunity, as long as there are evil thoughts and obsessions in their hearts, they can have unimaginable and unheard of power.
"One day, you will no longer be weak, as long as you have any thoughts in your heart, you can easily realize them..."
Lu Li became serious, and asked in a deep voice:
"How will it be done?"
It's easy to get drunk after drinking fast wine, not to mention people who haven't touched alcohol for a long time.
With little hesitation, Jack said with his tongue open: "Naturally, I will make a big case and get back all the things that others owe me."
For a moment, Lu Li had the urge to act first, to eliminate the potential danger before it caused a tragedy!
But after a little thought, he still gave up.
Although ticking your fingers can put an end to a life, it doesn't conform to your own ideals. Once you do this, how is it different from an executioner?
In the afternoon, the community street notified that I went to the hospital and wasted time. There will be three shifts tomorrow, and I will greatly increase the rewards. Today, two shifts are normal.
