"Then let's go quickly." She worried that if something really happened as Yu Chen said, it would be very troublesome.

The app on the mobile phone is quite comprehensive, from the comprehensive map and some relatively small alleys are marked, so that they can find his home along the map.

But the more troublesome thing is that even if you locate the place, you can't use the fastest method for a while, and you can only find it after going around the map for a long time.

An Xia glanced at the map, and compared it with the road on the street: "It should be here."

Yu Chen felt that the front was open in all directions, and there was a crossroad not far away. If the location was not sure, it would be easy to get lost.

He approached the sidewalk and stepped on the brake: "Show me the map."

An Xia obediently gave him the map.

Yu Chen glanced, there was an arrow key on the phone that was exactly where they were, and the place with a red circle was where they were going, and there was still a distance, if they were driving, they should go straight ahead.

But if this is the case, sliding up will not match at all.

Because the map shows that if you go forward, there is no way.

There are no too obvious road signs here, and it looks completely confused.

An Xia looked at it for a long time and didn't understand what was going on with this software.

"We should go this way." Yu Chen glanced at it, "If the above map is true, we should go back in the direction we came from now, only this way is correct, and there should be no way ahead. .”

There is a red cross sign on it, and a small note in the lower left corner says no driving. Most of the places like this have no way to go.

An Xia was a little embarrassed: "The problem is that we did drive here following the directions on the map. Why is there no way here?"

Yu Chen looked at the map above and pondered for a while: "Probably because from the very beginning, we were headed in the wrong direction."

An Xia's eyes widened, with an expression of disbelief: "Why, I clearly followed the instructions on the map!"

No wonder, she said how she felt that the drive was getting more and more deserted, and there was no one around here, if she continued to drive, she might really get lost.

"Ordinary pointing direction keys should be forward, but this software seems to be a bit unusual, and the direction keys are set to the opposite direction." Yu Chen thought about it a little, and found the reason for the matter.

An Xia was so angry that her teeth itched. When she downloaded the software before, she said why there were so many bad reviews on the software, but she was in a hurry to use it, so she didn't look at it carefully.

She is now speechless.

If I knew it earlier, I should have seen the bad reviews inside.

Fortunately, this software is not ignorant of flexibility, and setting it as the starting position here can finally save a little time.

It's just that, by the time they found someone, it was almost noon.

It was obviously starting in the morning, but the delay was the most in the middle of the journey.

An Xia looked at the alley that could be seen all the way to the end, the wall was wet, and the traces of sewage left over the years had eroded the white wall to reveal the original side, looking dirty.

The ditch on the ground is a sewage ditch, which is so widely exposed to the outside. There are all kinds of garbage in it, as well as thrown clothes, and excrement of animals or humans. When I entered, I could already smell an unbearable stench.

An Xia felt her hair go numb.

She had seen stinky gutters, but she had never seen one that smelled worse than this.

The mouse passed by majestically, turning a blind eye to An Xia and Yu Chen, and disappeared after a few squeaks.

The walls are covered with scribbled and drawn watercolors. An Xia glanced at them, but couldn't tell anything inside. It could be seen that they just wanted to destroy them.

The sky is overcast, and it feels terrible to match the environment.

She frowned, this alley is not long, but it has become the most difficult thing to go through.

Thinking of this, she took out two masks from her bag.

She handed one to Yu Chen, and then unpacked it for herself to wear. Although the smell was still as good as new, it was much better than before.

On the contrary, Yu Chen was a little different: "Why do you carry a mask with you?"

"These are essential things for a girl." An Xia glanced at him, seeing that he took the mask from his hand and tore it off neatly, and then helped him put it on.

"Does this feel better?" Her voice was muffled when she was wearing a mask, but she could still hear what she said clearly.

Yu Chen nodded.

Actually, it didn't do much for him.

His sense of smell is a little more sensitive than others. In this case, a mask can't stop it at all.

But he acted nonchalantly, so that An Xia couldn't imagine how uncomfortable he was because of this stinky ditch.

"Let's go."

Through the alley, you came to a residential area.

It's hard to imagine that there would be people living in it.

An Xia's life was not satisfactory when she was a child, but An Guofeng had a job and a house left by her mother. Although it was a little bit hard, in general, she didn't have to worry about food and clothing.

But as soon as you walk in here, there are countless lines of sight looking at it.

The eyes are mostly lifeless.

The child was sitting outside the iron gate with his legs curled up, his eyes had no light, and his skinny appearance seemed to be malnourished.

She looked all the way over, and the eyes of most people were like this, the sound of quarreling, the sound of crying babies, and the sound of scolding children. A place for people to shelter.

Perhaps for them, no matter how unbearable it is here, it is the only home they can rely on and live in.

Walking all the way, she felt very uncomfortable when she saw the child.

Because she found that there are not only one or a few children like that, but many.

Yu Chen could feel the oppression and pain behind these gazes, and could even understand what kind of situation they were in now.

There was pleading and fear in their eyes, but there was no such ruthlessness in their eyes.

An Xia will soften his heart, but he won't.

He has been the pride of heaven since he was a child, and he is ahead of most people in terms of resources and everything, but it is precisely because of this that he understands better than others that this is a society where the weak prey on the strong.

Even if they helped him today, what about tomorrow, the day after tomorrow.

Besides, he is not a kind person.

He didn't want to say that being weak is a sin, but in this society, being too weak really can't survive.

An Xia looked at Yu Chen hesitantly, hesitated to speak, just when she was about to speak, Yu Chen gently held her hand: "We are almost there, let's go."

An Xia glanced back and nodded.

From Yu Chen's meaning just now, she already understood what he wanted to express.

After passing the alley, the oppressive atmosphere weakened slightly.

"Just now, would you blame me?" Yu Chen said.

An Xia shook her head: "No, of course you have your reasons for what you do, and there are so many people in the world who can help you. In fact, I also knew just now that my thinking was wrong. It may be that sometimes I am too much of a virgin."

Speaking of which, she gave a wry smile. When she saw the child's eyes, she couldn't help but want to do something, knowing that it was wrong.

"Am I too stupid sometimes?" She lowered her head a little bit disappointed, this is obviously not the time to care about others.

"Of course not." Seeing that An Xia lowered her head, he couldn't help rubbing An Xia's head, "Your kindness is something that most people don't have, such a good disposition is very precious, besides, you understand , even if we take action now, the ones who can save them are only for a while, and the only ones who can save them are themselves."

An Xia took a deep breath.

He was right.

An Xia tried her best to forget what happened just now, and when she came back to her senses, Yu Chen had already stopped in her tracks.

"It's here." Yu Chen said.

An Xia looked around, all other places were dead ends, this place was already the deepest place.

The place in front of me was just an ordinary rental house, the outside looked dilapidated, even the door was crumbling, as if it could hit someone accidentally!
There is still a chain hanging on the door. The person should not be at home, otherwise it would not be locked.

"He doesn't seem to be here. Are we late? Has he already left?"

This was the only possibility An Xia could think of.

Yu Chen frowned, never expecting such a situation.

"Are you here to find Zhou Laosan?" Just then, an old and hoarse voice came from their voices.

An Xia and Yu Chen turned around.

The old man hunched over and coughed from time to time. Although it was winter, he was wearing a military overcoat. After wearing it for many years, there were already many traces of mending on it.

"Is the Zhou Laosan you mentioned the owner of this house?" Yu Chen pointed to the house behind.

"Yeah, I locked the lock of their house with my help. What do you want him to do?"

The old man had gentle eyes, and simply looked at them a few times, without any other meaning, just out of curiosity.

Both Yu Chen and An Xia were dressed formally. Although they couldn't see their faces clearly, the old man would still recognize people after living for so long. One could tell at a glance that these two people were either rich or noble.

He wondered in his heart, when did Zhou Laosan know such a powerful person?
"We have something very important to look for him, do you know where he is?" Yu Chen could tell that the old man should be quite familiar with the old man Zhou, at least a little more familiar than a simple stranger.

"What can he know? He is drunk every day, and he can't take care of him well, and he still has the mind to take care of other people's affairs? He should be drinking now, and he probably will be back soon."
