Lin City base, slums, in a low shed, a woman with disheveled hair and dirty body was squatting on the ground, carefully cleaning the corpse of a mutant mouse. The mutated rat is more than thirty centimeters long. Although it has a lot of flesh, women are reluctant to peel off the skin, and even throw away the internal organs. Even the thin intestines were cut open and carefully cleaned.

The clean water used in the base is all provided by people with water system abilities, which is expensive, and people in the slums can't afford it, so they can only buy water that has been precipitated after being used by others. Disinfectant is added to this water, so it always smells of disinfectant. However, people living in slums dare not dislike it at all. Even such water is not available every day.

In order to save money, we will reuse the used water. At first, it would be too dirty and unaccustomed, but as time went by, I gradually got used to it. These people work hard every day from dawn to dusk, but earn very few credit points. If they want to survive, they can only save desperately!

The small basin was filled with half a basin of filthy water. After the woman washed the cleaned mutant mouse and internal organs in it, she directly picked up a thin iron rod and pierced the mutant mouse, and roasted the hair off on the fire. Then put it into the pot and cook it together with the internal organs. Gradually, a stench and unpleasant smell came out of the pot.

If this taste was changed to pre-apocalyptic, no one would eat it except the homeless on the street. However, people in the slums have long been used to it. As soon as this smell wafts out, some people can't help but wrinkle their noses and take a deep breath. Then, he greedily looked at the small shed, and couldn't help swallowing.

Almost every day, such scenes are staged in the slums. The small sheds here are close together, and the aisle in the middle is pitifully narrow. The originally clean aisle has long since become greasy and black, and all kinds of odors permeate the air, gradually merging into an indescribably strange smell, which can make a normal person faint! People outside are not willing to come in such a messy place, and the people who live here have been exposed to such a smell for a long time, and after getting used to it, they don't feel much.

The woman seemed to hear the sound of saliva sucking outside, and her eyes looked out through the large and small gaps in the shed vigilantly. While watching, she greedily sniffed the smell coming out of the pot, picked up the spoon next to it and stirred in the pot, and saw that the meat had turned white, which was obviously ready, so she quickly turned off the fire.

She didn't take the bowl either, she just scooped a spoonful of it with a soup spoon and put it near her mouth, even ignoring the heat, she swallowed it directly into her stomach. At this time, a weak and eager voice suddenly sounded behind her: Quick...give it to me! Seeing that the woman didn't listen, he said loudly again, I caught this! Give it to me! Give it to me!

The woman pretended not to hear, picked up the meat in the pot with chopsticks and stuffed it into her mouth. Seeing this scene, the man became even more anxious, and couldn't help cursing: Damn... dead woman! I was injured trying to catch this mutant mouse, how can you eat alone!

When the woman heard this, she turned her head and glared at him impatiently. It was a thin old man lying in the corner of the shed wrapped in a dirty quilt. The quilt was covered with all kinds of stains, and his hands and feet exposed outside the quilt were covered with scars. When he saw the woman turn her head back, hope suddenly appeared in her cloudy eyes, and she stretched out her arms to beg, Give me some food, I'm going to starve to death.

The woman looked at him hesitantly, not knowing what to do, the door was suddenly knocked open, and a figure rushed in. This man was originally tall and tall, but now he was slightly hunched over, his skin was sallow, and there was a hideous scar on his face. After he rushed in, his eyes lit up when he saw the meat in the pot, he rushed up and pushed the woman away, grabbed her chopsticks, grabbed the meat and stuffed it into his mouth frantically, like a starved ghost reincarnated!

The woman wanted to rush over to snatch her, but he kicked her in the stomach. After stumbling a few steps, she happened to sit on the old man on the ground, making him scream miserably, and kept cursing, You bastard! Good to die.

The man ate the meat, looked at him and the woman with disdain, and retorted: I am a rebellious son? If I hadn't gone out to work every day to support you two, you would have starved to death outside! If it weren't for you You two old bastards didn't keep an eye on the eldest sister and let her run away, how could I be reduced to this kind of situation? Bah! Two old bastards! After finishing speaking, he continued to eat meat, and soon the meat in the pot was gone. All that was left was a small pile of bones.

The woman was kicked badly by him, and she didn't recover from it for a while, and she didn't dare to fight with him. She could only watch him eat all the meat, sit on the ground and cry sadly. The old man lying on the ground was very angry, but he was not in good health, and he was seriously injured for catching that mutant mouse before, how could he have the strength to get up and teach this unfilial son now? Hearing his son's words, he also regretted endlessly in his heart. If Li Qingyun hadn't been caught and let her run away, how could their family have fallen into such a state?

While regretting, he remembered the pile of supplies that Li Qingyun bought back then. There are so many supplies, he was really blind at the time, and he took in those poor relatives regardless of his daughter's dissuasion! These white-eyed wolves, not only ate their supplies, but also took their supplies to give gifts in exchange for good errands for themselves. After Li Qingyun left, he directly occupied their supplies and houses, and drove them out!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel, if Li Qingyun hadn't left them behind and ran away with others, how dare those heartless things drive them out? It's a pity that after Li Qingyun left, there was no news, no matter how much resentment he felt in his heart, it would be useless. Thinking of Li Qingyun, he also thought of the unfilial son in front of him, and couldn't help but start to regret, why didn't he see that this was a beast in human skin? If he had been nicer to Li Qingyun back then, wouldn't the girl have left them alone?

The man didn't bother to care about what he was thinking. After eating the meat, he drank the soup in the pot. Then he sighed comfortably, pointed to the small pile of bones and said, Why are you crying? Isn't it here? Is there anything else? After breaking it, you can make another pot of soup and make do with it. After speaking, he ignored the man and woman in the corner, wiped his mouth and walked out.

After he left, the woman cried even harder, and kept saying, Qingyun, where are you? Why are you so cruel, you don't even care about your parents. Come back soon, come back .”

It's a pity that the hope base and the Linshi base are separated by mountains and rivers, so it is impossible for Li Qingyun to hear these words. R1152
