He had indeed struggled, but his extremely weak body could not support him to stand up at all.He tried several times but ended in failure, and could only lie on the cold ground.

"Although it's too much to say, please go and save the children first! We adults can barely survive this attack, but the children can't stand the pain."

He looked at Joan in front of him and made his request to her.Compared with these suffering adults and the elderly, they still hope that the limited drugs can be used on children.

"You don't need to talk, I will try my best to help you ease your condition. I'm not sure about the medicine I brought, but it's no problem to save the vast majority of people."

Hearing Joan's words, the infected person in front of him felt relieved.He finally pointed to the gathering area of ​​the children, and then fell to the ground as if in a coma and did not move.

After confirming that he was only excessively weak, Joan took a dark clue and went to where he pointed.They still decided to follow that person's advice and use the medicine on their children first.

"Actually, your medicine may not be needed this time. I feel that their attacks will stop soon. Each infection will last no more than two hours, and it will disappear in 10 minutes at most."

Ansuo said to Jeanne based on his observations in the past few days.The situation is as she said, the shouting around has decreased somewhat, as if the symptoms have passed.

"Is it possible that there is a kindergarten in your place? Can you gather children together and take care of them?"

Joan of Arc asked secretly while on the road, but she never thought that such a place could exist, and enough resources could be integrated to take care of these children who were unable to survive.

"How is that possible? It's just that children tend to cry more when they get sick. If they are around other people, they may be beaten because they are too annoying. Don't forget that they are so weak now, they were very strong a few days ago!"

While talking, Ansuo brought Joan of Arc to a dilapidated house, where there were about twenty children lying on the ground weakly, if it wasn't for the chest still wide, it would be almost dead.

Seeing this scene, Joan also knew that the time for the onset of illness had passed.They don't need holy water to heal themselves now, so it's better to save the medicine and use it next time.

At this time, several infected people moved here with their exhausted bodies.When they saw Joan of Arc, their eyes were full of vigilance towards strangers.

But they didn't do anything, or their weak bodies did not allow them to do anything to Joan of Arc.They just looked at Joan with wary eyes. If she behaved recklessly, they could only risk their lives to fight her.

At this time, he discovered the secret clue of someone behind him and quickly explained Joan of Arc's identity to everyone.When they heard that this person was a cadre of the infected person organization, their faces were full of expressions of disbelief.

The city doesn't allow this kind of organization to exist, or it hasn't allowed this kind of organization to rescue them for many years.

Now even practicing medicine in this slum is becoming less and less, and now there is such a thing, they have to be vigilant when such a person pops up suddenly.

And when they heard that she had medicine that could alleviate the condition, their eyes suddenly showed expressions of greed and suspicion, and they began to whisper to each other to discuss something.

"Go back, don't lose face outside. They came here to save us, are you planning to do something embarrassing?"

An old man who was supported by other people walked over with difficulty. After seeing the expressions of the crowd, he angrily drove them away with a cane. The people around him seemed to be quite afraid of him, and left in a hurry.

This is a black cat, it should be said that it is a somewhat atavistic black film.The difference from normal Ferrin is that he is now like a standing cat.

I don't know whether it's old age or some reason, but his black hair has started to turn white, especially the hair on his head has turned into a color that is neither gray nor white.

"This old man is the manager of this place, but it's a joke. I'm a manager who has no practical role. I just want to manage such a group of unlucky people who are about to die."

After the old man introduced himself, he seemed to find it quite funny, and couldn't help laughing at what he said just now.

Joan could see that his eyeballs were beginning to cloud, as if a thin layer of mist shrouded them, and he seemed to be dying.

"Let's go inside the house. The sun is quite poisonous at this time. It's rude to throw someone who helps us like you into the sun..."

Chapter 170 The city of Longmen, the water is too deep

Joan of Arc followed the old man to a very dilapidated house.How old is it, you ask?There are no chairs in this room, only two broken wooden posts.

Joan looked around, and then looked back at the manager in front of her, a black cat whose fur was grayed out from overwork, and an old man who was dying.

"I just heard from An Suo, thank you very much for coming here to help us. Please forgive me for being wary of other people. We haven't seen people like you for many years."

There was a look of nostalgia in the old man's eyes. I don't know when, the organizations helping the infected in Longmen gradually decreased, and the few scattered ones disappeared.

So much so that they couldn't believe it when Joan of Arc appeared.I even suspect that the situation here is related to this suspicious person, otherwise why does she have special drugs?

"It doesn't matter. Since I chose this path, I won't care about doubts. After all, everyone's life is so difficult that if you are not vigilant, you will not be able to survive."

As Joan said, when malice permeates all environments, kindness is like a poisonous cake that makes people suspicious.

Whether it is Joan of Arc or Tallulah, this situation can often be seen when rescuing others in the snow field, so their actions just now are no surprise to Joan of Arc.

"I still want to ask, how long have you been in this situation? What caused this situation? Doesn't Longmen have any reaction to this kind of thing?"

Facing Joan's answer, the old man had no intention of hiding anything, and said:

"It's been a while. It was only a case of this kind of disease in other areas before. Everyone chose to watch. Later, when it seemed to be serious, they threw everyone away here."

The old man recalled the scene of the illness, and couldn't stop worrying in his heart.They didn't know whether it was a plague or what the reason was, and they could only live in fear.

Afterwards, the old man showed a very terrified expression on his face, as if recalling something terrible.I saw him open his mouth several times, but he didn't make a sound several times.

"They blocked the news here, and those who didn't get sick all left. Only a few people came back from time to time to take a look. Only Longmen?"

Speaking of Longmen, the old man smiled a few times with a disdainful expression.Even though it lives in Longmen, it regards itself as garbage.

"Everyone around doesn't want Longmen officials to know about this. They are worried that Longmen will ruin their lives. So let us stay here and wait for death. Those who want to find a doctor have been dealt with by them."

When the old man spoke, there was a look of anger and sadness in his eyes.That sentence was dealt with and said very simply, but even Joan could hear the blood in that sentence.

Maybe, in the pile of corpses she saw before she came to Longmen, there were opponents who were unwilling to wait for death and wanted to find a doctor?

But after thinking about it, this place is still far away from that place, and the dragon gate can't move at will, so many people in the slums should have done it.

"As far as what's causing it ... we really don't know the exact cause. Our lives have not changed much before the onset of the disease, so we can't determine the specific cause."

The old man thought about it seriously for a while. They had been thinking for a long time, but they found nothing at all.

And the slums are too messy, and no one knows what caused it by something inconspicuous.It's not like they didn't suspect something was wrong with the food or the water

It's a pity that it's useless for them to doubt, because they die faster than this if they don't eat or drink.And they have no choice.

That's why after inviting Joan in, he didn't even give Joan a glass of water.Although there is no conclusive evidence, it is better to be cautious about this kind of thing.

Suddenly, the old man seemed to have suddenly remembered something.He approached Joan of Arc and said to her seriously:

"I heard from people from other places that many companies recruited a large number of infected people under the pretext of providing painkillers. They said that they were allowed by Longmen, but once those people left with them, they would Never came back."

The words of the old man are also obvious, the degree of suspiciousness and black heart of these enterprises are not low!Just by providing painkillers and food, people are selling their lives to their business...  

As for no more news, they should have a corresponding reason to prevaricate... No, they may not even need to prevaricate, at worst, they would say that the disease relapsed and died.

It's so cruel, even though Longmen claims to have a good attitude towards the infected, it's actually not much better.Only it doesn't drive you to death like Ursus.

"So, child! If you want to help the infected, let the dark cable take you to other places! Our place is meaningless. No matter who makes the final move, we can't change the fate of our own death."

The old man scratched his head, then spoke as if expressing an exclamation.Joan of Arc saw a sense of vicissitudes in this old man.

He may have the ability to escape. An old man who can manage this kind of place in an orderly manner must not be simple.

But now, the scene where the old man looked at the sky seemed extremely sad.If he is alone, he can definitely escape, but now he doesn't want to escape anymore.

Perhaps he was also a participant in the turbulent era of Longmen. He came to this city with his dream, but in the end he lost completely, and could only linger here.

"You're right, but I think some things still need to be tried, don't you? I'll leave the medicine with you first, and try its effect after you get sick."

Joan of Arc recognized the old man's words, but she still hoped to help them.Now she can't do much, the only thing she can do now is to give medicine.

Although the old man said so decisively, Joan could still see from his eyes that the desire to live still existed.It's just that the old man buried that emotion in his heart and refused to let it out.

"You... well, I'll just listen to your opinion honestly. On behalf of all the infected people around here, I would like to thank you. Thank you very much."

The old man looked at Joan for a while, and finally had no choice but to agree to the matter.He stood up tremblingly, intending to bow to Joan, but Joan quickly stopped him.

The old man didn't hold on any longer, or it might be that he was too weak to stand for too long, so he sat on a stake with the support of Joan of Arc.

In fact, it is more likely that the old man could not break free from Joan's hands, so he could only sit down as he resigned himself to Joan's arrangement.

Good guy, this kid looks weak and weak, but I didn't expect him to be quite strong.Put me back straight away.

At this time, the dark cable who was checking the situation outside came back to report the situation to the old man.Another seven infected people couldn't take it anymore and chose to commit suicide.There are also a few who are seriously ill. They chose an open place and blew themselves up.

The arrival of this report made the old man silent for a long time.I didn't expect that someone would explode due to illness in this outbreak...

If this continues, even if the people around want to hide the situation here, how long can they hide?

"Miss Joan, please go outside and wait for a while. I will talk to this child, and then let her take you out of here."

Hearing the old man's words, Joan of Arc could only nod and walked outside.Still, she put the extremely simplified version of the holy water on the table and explained how to use it.

After saying this, Joan turned around and walked outside the house.Looking at the sun hanging high in the sky, he couldn't help but let out a sigh.

Inside the house, Ansuo looked nervously at the old man in front of him.She seemed to be able to guess what he was going to say next, but it wasn't what she wanted to hear at all.

"Child, have you lived in this area for some years? I still remember that you entered my room when you first came here. At that time, you looked for something to eat when you saw no one around..."

Chapter 170 The investigation that came to an end

An Suo didn't expect that the old man would actually start talking to her at this time, and didn't know how to answer for a while, so he could only touch his head embarrassedly and said:

"Hasn't those things been in the past for many years, and you have promised me not to mention the previous things?"

At that time, she was still a child, and her parents could only choose to abandon her in this slum because they couldn't afford the resources to raise her.

At that time, she was still young, and she didn't have such brilliant stealing skills. She couldn't support herself by herself, so she could only choose to sneak into some places where the owner was not at home to steal some food.

It was also at that time that he was caught by him who came in.After that, he occasionally treats her to a meal and so on, and until now, Ansuo also helps him from time to time.

"Son, I know you don't want to part with me and the things here. But this time you have to find a way to get out of here, you really can't stay here anymore, we will implicate you..."

Joan of Arc was still looking at the sky outside, and suddenly she was startled by the word "No" yelled secretly in the room, she turned her head to look at the closed door and patted her heart that had almost stopped suddenly.

This voice was too sudden, and then the voice became quieter again. Joan who was outside the door looked at the room and couldn't help taking a few steps back, and she was also careful about this kind of thing.

It's not because of anything else, the main reason is that the sudden yelling is really unbearable, so it's better to be careful.

Then, after a moment of silence, there was a heated argument.What Alina and her two said actually included colloquialisms and dialects, making Joan unable to understand what they were talking about.

It didn't take long for the sound in the house to quiet down again.Just as Joan of Arc was fully prepared for the next loud noise, she found that the secret cable opened the door and ran out without a word in a daze.

"what's going on?"

Joan of Arc quickly looked into the house, and saw the old man sitting there a little lonely, his eyes filled with heartache and reluctance, and he was beating the ground with his crutches.

It seems that the two people should have gone through a heated discussion because of something, and the result of the two people in the end was that they broke up unhappy, and finally ended up in the current situation.

"I'm really sorry for letting you see a joke, Miss Joan of Arc. At first, I thought I could persuade this child, but I didn't expect it to turn into such a situation in the end."

After all, the old man looked up at the roof.I don't know if I'm recalling my past, or I'm thinking about what I should say next.Anyway, I just sat there and didn't make a sound.

"Actually, you don't need to be too pessimistic about this matter, old man. Everything you think has not happened yet, maybe this matter will usher in a turning point?"

At this moment, Joan roughly guessed what was going on just now, so she sat down to persuade the sad old man alone.

At this moment, Joan of Arc naturally knew exactly what he was thinking.For an old man who knows how Longmen handles such things, he will naturally look at this matter with pessimism.

This is not alarmist talk, just like Wei Lao Er's method of always killing danger in the bud, no matter what kind of sacrifice it will lead to, this kind of thing will happen naturally.

But didn't Joan come here to help them solve this problem?Do you know what the outcome of this matter is, so you have to treat what happened here as if it didn't happen?
