Hades system

"Abo, cover your body with mother's padded jacket, and let mother carry you up, okay?"

By the parking lot at the entrance of the hospital, Jiang Biyun took out her dark ragged padded jacket from the back seat of the small tricycle. Standing beside her was Bai Ziren, who was already wearing several thick winter clothes and was sweating on his forehead. Instinctively, she insisted on putting the clothes on the young man's thin body amidst Bai Ziren's murmur of resistance.

"Good boy, be obedient, your hands and feet have been unreasonably cold these two days."

Touching Bai Ziren's cold palm without a trace of human warmth with his hands, Jiang Biyun frowned worriedly, and a few traces of worry crossed his wrinkled face due to work.

"..."

Bai Ziren bowed his head and said nothing, he couldn't explain to his mother why his body had these abnormalities; he couldn't tell his mother, Mom, it's cold, you should wear more; he even He didn't even dare to show any expression that was too rich, for fear of frightening the mother who still treats him like a babbling child until now.

"Come on, let's go home!"

After many days of worrying, a smile finally bloomed on Bai Ziren's discharge from the hospital today. Jiang Biyun bent down and wanted to half-carry Bai Ziren, who was already much taller than her, onto the tricycle, but in the next second, he saw himself walking the same way. The silly son, who would fall into a mess, slowly but steadily sat on the small bench in the tricycle.

"Abe!"

Jiang Biyun almost shouted in surprise. It took her three months to teach Bai Ziren to eat with a spoon. As for the more difficult movements such as climbing stairs and riding a tricycle, it took her three months before Bai Ziren was injured and hospitalized. She did it with great reluctance, but just now, her son did it so coherently...

Jiang Biyun couldn't be more happy for a moment, she almost didn't know what to do to unlock the tricycle, and then she laughed all the way back.The cold wind on the road is bitter, and the air in this southern city seems to be wet and cold. The scent of wintersweet on the side of the road has reddened the flowers on the tree branches. Bai Ziren smiled and wrapped his winter clothes tightly around his body. Laughter seems to carry the warmest temperature this winter.

Today is the day he was discharged from the hospital.Before he was discharged from the hospital, he saw Fang Xiaoya again.This girl who obviously hasn't escaped the shock that Bai Ziren brought her is standing in the corridor, looking at the scenery outside the window calmly, her parents are standing beside her to accompany her, Bai Ziren didn't choose to go up Talking to her, I just stood in the distance and watched for a while, then followed my mother out.

After leaving this hospital, everything is a new beginning.

He will no longer interfere with Fang Xiaoya's debt repayment, and there are some things that can't be helped by a bystander.

Time will tell whether Dong Quan'an's death is worthwhile. Bai Ziren doesn't know if Fang Xiaoya will let him down. He just knows that his brand new life has begun. From today on, he is no longer a That fool who will never have hope and future, he will use his own efforts to make himself live well and live to the best.

……

"Oh, Xiao Jiang, Ah Bo was discharged from the hospital today?"

"Yes, Aunt Sun, are you out shopping?"

"That's right, my granddaughter came back for dinner today haha, so I bought a few fresh live fish... Oh, why don't you take one home! Ah Bo is now about to replenish his body..."

"Hey, no, no! How can you be so embarrassing..."

The tricycle slowly drove into the residential area deep in the alley. Jiang Biyun stopped to talk to the familiar old neighbors. Bai Ziren, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, looked up dully at the various wires on the balcony of the residential area. The clothesline, and above it, a few sparrows flew panic-stricken in the blue sky.

"Snapped--"

The crisp sound of eggshells cracking sounded, and Jiang Biyun and Aunt Sun in front of him stopped talking in surprise. When he turned around, he saw that Bai Ziren, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, had egg yolks and broken eggshells on his face and temples. A broken rotten egg remained at his curled feet.

"Stinky fool! Stinky fool! Please eat rotten eggs haha!"

The laughter of children came from the balcony of the opposite residential building. Every household in the dilapidated and old-fashioned buildings looked almost the same. While angrily cursing upstairs, he took out a few pieces of toilet paper in his pocket and gave Bai Ziren to wipe them carefully.

"These little red bastards! They are working hard all day long! The adults in the family don't know how to teach them!"

Aunt Sun on the side interjected angrily, and Jiang Biyun smiled bitterly when she heard the words, and for a while, she was no longer in the mood to chat.

She has lived in this alley for more than ten years. Except for Aunt Sun and a few old neighbors who are reluctant to talk to her, most of the people living here are full of disgust for her and Bai Ziren's existence.Fools, idiots, idiots who poop, these hurtful words appear in Jiang Biyun's ears time and time again. She may not care whether she is living a happy life, but she does not want her children to be humiliated like this ...

Thinking of this, his eyes were a little red. Jiang Biyun wiped his wet eyes with the back of his hand, touched Bai Ziren's head comfortingly, and finally said with a sob, "Let's go home."

The wheels of the small tricycle slowly began to turn, and Bai Ziren's thoughtful gaze was still on the residential building opposite the alley. Compared with his mother's anger, his thoughts were wandering elsewhere at the moment, and there was also a hidden danger hidden in his dark eyes. unknown emotions.

Everything that happened just now could have been easily resolved with his current ability.

But unfortunately, at the moment that rotten egg hit him, he happened to be distracted.

From the moment his mother rode a tricycle into this small alley where he had lived for more than ten years, he felt a strange atmosphere.The residential area that was supposed to be full of life is more shrouded in a depressive atmosphere that belongs to death. This kind of atmosphere may not be perceived by ordinary people, but Bai Ziren, who is the owner of the Hades system, can clearly feel it. .

It was a kind of eerie tranquility similar to that on the beach before a tsunami or an earthquake. All the stray cats and dogs in the alley had disappeared, and the birds were scattered in the sky, which made Bai Ziren more sure. The reason for my own thoughts is that from just now, every resident who passed in front of him has a cyan light that belongs to the dying person above his head.

Whether it's the middle-aged women who are sitting at the entrance of the alley picking vegetables and looking at themselves and their mother with contempt, or Aunt Sun who just talked with her mother for a while, or is hiding under the balcony on the easternmost side of the third floor. The little boys covering their mouths and laughing, all had that kind of blue light on their heads that heralds the coming of death.

Bai Ziren used the system's viewing function to scan the information of these people one by one. Along with the system prompt sound of Didi, he heard a cold mechanical voice saying so programmatically in his ear.

……

[Drip——The balance of target Wangju's lifespan: 6 hours Cause of death: Fire caused by circuit aging]

[Drip——Target Sun Fangxiu's lifespan balance: 6 hours Cause of death: Fire caused by circuit aging]

[Drip——Target Zhao Dongdong's lifespan balance: 6 hours Cause of death: Fire caused by circuit aging]

……

In six hours, night will fall.

City Y is developing rapidly, and the urban construction is changing with each passing day.Except for this dormitory area that originally belonged to a certain fertilizer factory, there are very few buildings in this city that retain the style of the last century.

As far as the eye can see, most of the wooden stair railings and balcony guardrails are on the verge of collapse due to moths. The messy wiring in the old residential area is placed on top of people, and various clotheslines and broadband network cables are intertwined and intertwined, like a dense The cobwebs are generally layered on top of each other, and the edges cannot be seen.

The people who live here may never have cared about how many safety hazards there are behind this kind of decay scene that is unique to old residential areas.And just six hours later, because of a household's electricity theft, it will bring a monstrous fire to this old residential area that is less than 200 meters long and has a total of more than 11 residents.

Thinking of this, Bai Ziren slowly closed his eyes. His mother's three-wheeled tricycle shuttled through the narrow alley, and he listened to the sound of the car bell, the sound of cooking, and the sound of children crying. , the sound of husband and wife arguing, he could hear the movement from the homes of every family passing by, this was the sound that he had grown up with, and he could hear every day for a long time.But deep in his memory, he didn't even feel any nostalgia or liking for it.

"Ah, did you see that, that's the one who lives there, the little Jiang's kid... I heard that he has a bad brain, he's so old that he can't even speak..."

"Isn't that an idiot... Alas, this kind of brain problem is the scariest thing. I want to go back and tell my husband to keep our children away from him. Idiots are not responsible for killing people... "

"My father said that Bai Ziren is a fool. This kind of person will never be successful in his life. Didn't you see that he even asked his mother to feed him..."

"Stinky fool! Stinky fool! Do you want to eat candy? Hey, I threw it on the ground, can you pick it up with your mouth..."

Those ear-piercing voices that were hidden deep in the memory, even if they regained their sanity, still seemed to be ringing in their ears, those distorted faces that always looked disgusted, those who could feel it even if they couldn't understand it at all. malicious words.

Bai Ziren couldn't tell what kind of mood he was in at the moment. After all, he was only a teenager, and he didn't have the noble character of Old Dong that would make most people ashamed. He hated from the bottom of his heart the things that had hurt him and him. Mother's person, but there is another voice in his heart that tortures his still young heart over and over again.

……

Which is more important, my anger or a hundred lives...

As long as these people are all dead and their ghosts are recovered, I can get a lot of money...

I'm not a saint, I can't do that others have treated me so badly, I still want to save them...

But...Knowing that they are dying, but deliberately not saving them, isn't it a person who is a thousand times uglier than these people...

All kinds of messy thoughts rushed through Bai Ziren's mind. The gloomy Bai Ziren clenched his palms tightly. The sky as far as he could see had been dyed yellow by the setting sun. He sighed softly and looked at the The mother, who knew nothing about what was about to happen, had already made a decision in her heart.

——He wants to be worthy of his own conscience, and he is only worthy of his own conscience.
