Chapter 353: Senseless Killing

Everyone has their youth and a heart as fiery as fire.

But for many people, although the fire is burning, they don't know where it will end.

The first impression of the border is undoubtedly that it is dirty and messy. All kinds of dirty garbage can be seen everywhere on the streets, flies are constantly circling around them, and various residential buildings have been in disrepair for many years. Ivy grows wantonly on the building, and there are a lot of mosses attached to the surface of the wall, revealing a shabby atmosphere everywhere.

But in a certain shabby building, there is a different world.

"Squeak--"

The door was pushed open, and a young man covered in blood walked into the room.

This room is clean and tidy. It can be seen that someone cleans it every day. There are all kinds of brand new furniture in the room, flowers bloom proudly on the balcony, and the wind blows through, bringing a refreshing fragrance, revealing a warm feeling that is incompatible with the border everywhere.

"Gordon, you're back." The hostess wearing an apron walked out of the kitchen.

Seeing Gordon covered in blood, she was startled and asked in panic: "Gordon! Are you hurt?!"

"No, it's all other people's blood." Gordon took off his bloody clothes and threw them into the clothes basket, cursing, "Those bastards of the Gray Snake Gang dared to block me on the way."

"I have a full body of Fearless Level 1 prosthesis, and those trash dared to challenge me? I killed them all one by one, let's see who dares to provoke me again!"

The hostess asked worriedly: "Will they chase us home?"

Gordon said calmly: "Karen, I've told you many times that before I go home, I will make sure there is no tail behind me. There are still my brothers around here24 Keep an eye on him for hours, nothing will happen. "

Karen's eyes looked a little resentful, and she said, "Gordon, every time you go out, you fight with people, and you come back covered in blood. I'm really worried about you like this."

Gordon shook his hand and said impatiently, "Don't talk too much. This is our business as men. What do you know as a woman? Just take care of the family affairs."

"I'll take a shower first. Is dinner ready? Hurry up and serve it on the table. I'm starving."

Karen whispered, "It's ready, go wash it, I'll help you pack the clothes."

After Gordon entered the bathroom, Karen silently sorted the blood-stained clothes, washing them in the machine and washing them by hand, and then hung them all on the balcony.

When Gordon came out of the shower, the hot dinner was already on the table.

As soon as he sat down, a little girl walked to the side.

She is Gordon and Karen's daughter, 14 years old this year. She held a plate of spaghetti with meat sauce in her hand, carefully placed it in front of Gordon, and said obediently: "Dad, eat noodles."

"Yeah, good boy." Gordon picked up the fork and ate the spaghetti in big mouthfuls.

Karen brought two smaller spaghetti, put them on the table, and said softly: "Agatha, you come and eat too."

The family of three sat at a table, eating food silently, no one spoke, and the atmosphere seemed a little dull.

Gordon buried his head in eating noodles to fill his stomach that had been hungry for a day because of the fighting.

Karen and Agatha looked at each other from time to time, as if they were making some kind of eye contact.

Karen kept blinking at Agatha, signaling her to speak to her father.

Agatha seemed a little embarrassed, looking at Karen eagerly, with timidity in her eyes.

The two had agreed that Agatha would speak up, but her daughter was shy and backed off at the last minute. Karin had no choice but to speak up herself: "Gordon, I have something to discuss with you."

"Say it." Gordon didn't even raise his head.

Karin seemed cautious and spoke in a low voice: "Let's move to another city, how about that? We'll go to the capital. If you don't like it there, we can go to another city."

Gordon frowned, stopped eating noodles, raised his head and asked in confusion: "Why are you talking about this suddenly?"

Karin lowered her eyes and said: "My daughter and I don't like the border. Since the Rusty Wall Isolation Act was enacted three years ago, the environment here has become more and more chaotic, and we can hear gunshots every day."

"Every time you go out, you always come back covered in blood. You fight this today and that tomorrow. We don't like this kind of life."

Gordon laughed angrily and said heavily: "Kalin, are you still asleep? Do you know how people outside call me now?"

"I, Gordon, the king of the border! In the past few years, I have defeated more than a dozen large groups. "I defeated the Alpha Team of the Anti-Violence Section 4 by myself! I am now the recognized king of the entire border!"

"I shed so much blood and sweat, and finally climbed to the top and became the king. Now you ask me to retire and live in another city? Are you kidding me!"

Karen looked gloomy and said incomprehensibly: "Sometimes I really don't understand why you are so obsessed with false reputation? Is it so important to you whether to be the king of the border?"

Gordon: "Yes! It's very important! Because I don't want to be looked down upon again!"

He poked himself hard in the heart, his tone full of resentment and violence for the past: "You know how much we suffered together when we were young!"

"When I was 20 years old, do you remember? My father passed away. I had no money at the time and couldn't even pay for the funeral. "

"The coffin shop owner saw that I had no money, so he deliberately made things difficult for me, saying that if I could learn to bark like a dog 10,000 times, he would give me a coffin for free."

"What can I do? In order to bury my father, I barked! I stood at the door of his shop and barked from morning to night, looking like a dog. Everyone who passed by looked at me like trash! What can I do? I have no money and no power, so I can only do this!"

"And the first time I joined a group, you know, I followed the boss of the Rhino Gang, the flat-headed fat guy."

"At that time, we were drinking with a big customer, and just because I accidentally touched his chopsticks when I was picking up food, the fat guy used a beer bottle to crack my head in order to curry favor with him."

"That's not the end! The two of them also peed on my head together, and the two pees were poured directly on my face. The disgusting smell made me I will never forget it in my life!"

Speaking of this, Gordon's eyes were full of ferocity: "At that time, I swore in my heart that one day, I would stand out, and I would make sure that no one in this world would dare to look down on me!"

Looking at the indignant Gordon, Karin's expression seemed a little sad: "Just for a little face, you kill so many people every day, is it worth it?"

Gordon said loudly: "It's worth it! Why not? Isn't it just to live a breath? ! "

"I am now the king of the border, everyone is afraid of me, everyone must submit to me, I will never be bullied again, only I can bully others!"

"That coffin shop owner, doesn't he like to hear dogs barking? Later, I specially killed a dog and sewed the dog's mouth to his mouth, so that he can bark for himself every day, barking for a while Lifetime!"

"And that fat guy, you want to pour urine on me, right? I'll just push him into the toilet and let him drown in the urine!"

"This is the king, understand? I hold the power of life and death, whoever I want to live can live, whoever I want to die can die! This is what I've been fighting for half my life!"

Karin asked, "What about us? Are my daughter and I not important to you at all?"

Gordon was stunned for a moment, and asked in confusion, "Why do you ask that? You are all my family, of course you are important."

"We have known each other since we were young, and we have always been inseparable. We have never been apart even in the most difficult times."

"I am successful now, and many women want to pay me, and my brothers also say that they can take more, but I tell them, it's impossible! You are my first wife, Whether you are rich or poor, I will not abandon you, nor will I consider any other woman. "

"I love you, Karen, and I love our daughter too. Why do you ask me this question?"

Karen covered her face and held her forehead, and said weakly: "You said you love us, but you never considered our feelings. For so many years, you just go out to fight and kill every day. Agatha and I don't want to see you like this."

Gordon was a little angry and pointed at his nose and said: "Do you dislike me going out to fight and kill every day? Why do I do this? Isn't it for you? ! "

"If I don't fight, don't fight, don't develop my own power to make money, how can I support you and your daughter?"

"Look at the things you are using now, such as the beauty instrument I gave you, which is a high-end product in the inner city. One unit costs hundreds of thousands."

"And when Agatha was sick at the beginning of this year, I specially asked for a private medical team from the inner city to give her the best care. It cost more than one million for one trip."

"How many people in the border area can afford these things? If I wasn't the king of the border, would you have lived such a good life? Do you still despise me now?"

Karen pursed her lips, stretched out her hand to hold Gordon's arm, and said in a trembling voice: "Gordon, we don't mean to despise you, but this is not the life we ​​want."

"You don't know, every time there was a gunshot outside the window, Agatha and I were too scared to make a sound, for fear that criminals would come to our house."

"Every time you come back late or can't contact us, we stay up all night, worrying about whether something has happened to you."

"We don't have to have those valuables and luxurious treatments you mentioned, they are all superficial things."

"All we want is a stable life. I hope Agatha can grow up well. As long as this life is safe and sound, it doesn't matter even if we are not the best."

"What's more, we have saved a lot of money now, and we can live well if we find a place to live again, right? "

Gordon raised his hand impatiently: "I don't want to tell you anymore. It's a man's business to decide which way to go. Women should stop talking and just be a good housewife."

"My connections and career are all in the border areas. I can never leave. If you and Agatha don't like it here, you can move to other cities by yourself. Don't worry about the money. I have plenty. I will send it every month. I will also visit you when I have time."

After hearing this, Agatha's eyes flashed with tears. She grabbed Karen's sleeve and choked up, saying: "Mom, I don't want to be separated from Dad."

Karen looked at Gordon with complicated eyes. She smiled miserably and her tone became sad: "I understand. You just can't let go of your face."

"You've been bullied for too long before, and now you've finally climbed to the top. You've become addicted to the feeling of being on top."

"What do you mean by for us? That's not true! You're doing it for yourself! You can't let go of the false name of the King of the Border, and you're afraid that others will laugh at you after you retire!"

"Gordon, is your face more important than your family's happiness? Are you going to live for that little bit of face in this life? Keep fighting, keep fighting, waste your life in fighting and killing, until everyone in the entire Border is afraid of you, and you're satisfied with that?!"

"Bang!"

Gordon slapped the table with his palm, and the strong palm force directly cracked the tabletop, and scolded: "I told you! Women don't care about men's business! Eat!"

Karen didn't say anything, just lowered her eyes and silently stirred the pasta on the plate, and forked some large pieces of meat to Agatha.

Agatha opened her innocent big eyes, carefully looked at her quarreling parents, and dared not say anything.

"Ding-ling-ling." Just then, the ringing of the cell phone broke the silence.

Gordon took out his cell phone and answered it: "What? Those bastards dare to come? You wait there, I'll be here soon."

After saying that, he pushed the plate forward and stood up and left the table.

Karen asked: "Where are you going?"

Gordon put on a punk-style jacket and said coldly: "A batch of goods was robbed by the Spider Gang, and several brothers died. I fucked him, I didn't beat them last time, today I must kill them from top to bottom, let others know the consequences of messing with me!"

Karen hurriedly stopped him: "I just came home and didn't eat a few bites of food, you want to go again?!"

Gordon impatiently pulled her away and walked to the door: "I've told you several times, don't mind men's business. Leave some food for me in the refrigerator, I may be back late."

"Gordon!" Karen shouted at his back, choking, "Today is your daughter's birthday!"

Gordon was obviously stunned for a moment, turned his head and looked at Agatha.

Agatha bit her lip and sat on the chair, looking at Gordon sadly, her big eyes full of grievance.

Gordon then discovered that there was an unopened birthday cake in the kitchen behind.

There were so many things to do that he even forgot his daughter's birthday.

Karen's voice was trembling, and she said in a pleading tone: "Today is Agatha's 14th birthday, and she has been looking forward to it for a long time. I asked her what gift she wanted before, and she said she didn't want anything, just hoped that her father could accompany her."

"Gordon, just this once, okay? I don't care what you are going to do later, you just spend a good birthday with the child today, I beg you"

Gordon stood there silently, looking a little hesitant.

Not long after, the phone rang again, and the brothers called to urge him.

Gordon gritted his teeth, shook off Karen's hand after a moment, and said to Agatha: "Baby, Daddy really has something to do tonight. If things can be done quickly, I will try to come back early. If I can't come back today, I will make up for your birthday in a few days. Be good."

After saying that, he turned his back to his wife and daughter and walked out of the house, once again heading towards the killing that he had repeated countless times in the past, without looking back at them. (End of this chapter)
