c-1 Extra Story Xue Jiu (I)
The sky is gray, and any city will have dark and damp corners. Corners where the sun cannot shine are a hotbed of darkness in human nature and a paradise for evil.
An abandoned construction site is where a gang that is as small as possible gathers.
How small is this gang?
One van can fit everyone in and transport everyone.
But even so, this gang still controls nearly ten children.
Their daily work is very simple. Let these children go out to beg, let off guard, steal, take the blame, do anything that is inconvenient for them, and seek out-of-bounds benefits for them.
In their eyes, these children are not people, but property.
If necessary, anything can be sold.
Adults have their own adult world, and children have their own child’s world.
These controlled children huddled in reinforced concrete corners, avoiding the sun and rain, licking their wounds and hugging each other for warmth.
They don’t even have names and can only call each other in the order in which they joined the gang.
Huo Da is the leader of the group and the strongest one. In Scarface’s words, Huo Da will go into black boxing and make a lot of money in the future.
Therefore, Huo Da not only has privileges in the gang and does not have to go out to beg or steal, but he is also the king of children among children.
Huo Da took two mouthfuls of the boxed lunch, stuffed it casually to his companions, and asked,
“Little bastard, is there someone new here today?”
The boy ranked eighth was not originally named Wang, and he couldn’t tell what his surname was.
But since he is ranked eighth, it is not up to him what his last name is.
The bastard nodded, “It seems so.”
Someone asked, “Is it the ninth or the tenth?”
The fourth child who was reading a book raised his head and said, “Old Ten, how do you remember the numbers? Didn’t I tell you? Count with ten fingers!”
Hearing this, the man opened his palms and counted them one by one.
“One, two, three, four…I only have nine fingers!”
“Idiot! You don’t have a head on your neck!”
“…”
“Don’t make any noise!”
Big Huo was the biggest and had the loudest voice. As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone else fell silent.
“Isn’t Lao Jiu dead? So it’s Lao Jiu!”
“What Huo Da said makes sense!”
Everyone nodded while sharing the lunch boxes.
As for the Lao Jiu they were talking about, he was standing in the corner at the moment, wearing a pair of boots that didn’t fit him, not knowing what he was thinking.
Huo Da jumped down from the steps, pushed away the children around him, and walked straight towards him.
“Hey, new guy, how did you get here?”
The new Lao Jiu replied seriously, “Here he comes.”
Huo Da:……
Huo Da asked patiently,
“I’m asking you, why are you here!”
The other party asked, “Who am I?”
Huo Da felt confused, “I am me!”
The other party said seriously, “Then why can’t you talk about me and have to talk about me?”
Huo Dao came up in anger, “Boy, are you looking for trouble?”
After hanging out with this group of people, Huo Da was the king of children, so he naturally got a little gangster spirit and learned a lot of swear words. No child had ever dared to talk to him like this.
“I’m not looking for trouble.”
The child said seriously,
“Civilized people don’t often call themselves Lao Tzu.”
Huo Dali said confidently, “I’m not civilized!”
The child was particularly stubborn and pointed at the group of adults who were smoking, drinking and playing cards.
“So, you want to be like them when you grow up?”
Huo Da was stunned for a moment, and felt that what the other party said was reasonable, and then he became angry again.
“Who are you? You care about me so much. Believe it or not, I will beat you!”
The child nodded, “Letter.”
He had bruises on his face, and it was obviously not the first time he had been beaten.
Huo Da was stunned for a moment, frowned and asked, “Aren’t you afraid of getting beaten?”
“Afraid.”
Being spanked will hurt, and of course children are afraid of pain.
“Fear of being beaten and telling the truth are not in conflict with each other.”
If you don’t tell the truth because you’re afraid of getting beaten, it’s better to get a beating.
Huo Da’s raised fist was hanging in the air. He gritted his teeth, breathed heavily in his chest, and stared fiercely at the child in front of him.
Huo Da didn’t want to beat him. In Huo Da’s eyes, the kid couldn’t bear the beating at all.
But Huo Da had to beat him, because Huo Da is the king of children, and there can only be one king among children. When his status is challenged, Huo Da can only respond with the best method.
“Your name is Huo Da, right?”
The child suddenly asked,
“how old are you?”
“I’m 11 years old!”
“I am 9 years old.”
Huo Da frowned, “So?”
“It’s not fair for an 11-year-old to beat a 9-year-old.”
Huo Da was stunned again. There is no doubt that he is a fair person.
“Then…then what do you think we should do!”
The child said seriously,
“When we are the same age, let’s fight again,”
“good!”
Huo Da readily agreed and didn’t feel there was any problem.
The previous tense atmosphere was gone. Huo Da went to the pile of children to get half a lunch box and handed it to the new Lao Jiu.
“Lao Jiu, what’s your last name?”
The child looked down at his boots while eating.
This is all he has left.
“Xue, my surname is Xue.”
The child swallowed the food in his mouth and said seriously,
“Call me Xue Jiu.”
…
Due to some unlucky reasons, the van fell into the river.
None of the people in the car survived.
Xue Jiu contacted the media through some unknown method and found someone to expose the gang.
After receiving social attention, the lives of these children are finally better.
At least, they no longer have to sleep on the streets and make a living by cheating.
The children gathered around Xue Jiu, chirping like a bunch of sparrows, full of yearning for a better tomorrow.
Since Xue Jiu came, their world seemed to have light.
They walked forward, and no one noticed that Huo Da stood there without moving.
Xue Jiu stopped, looked back at Huo Da, and shouted,
“Huo Da, let’s go.”
Huo Da subconsciously took a step forward, and soon froze again.
Why should I listen to you?
When I am with Xue Jiu, I am not even allowed to call myself Lao.
Huo Da, who was standing in the shadows, stopped and turned his head to look at a corner.
There was a cartoon picture there, which was the Ultraman that Lao Jiu liked the most.
Lao Jiu died, and they couldn’t do anything, not even a photo. The money they collected was not enough to buy Lao Jiu a toy, so they had to get a sticker and worship it like the funerals they had seen.
They said that people will turn into light after death, and maybe Lao Jiu turned into Ultraman after death.
In front of the Ultraman sticker, there were various things, including half a cigarette butt, a comic book, a half-eaten apple…
And a pair of boots.
Xue Jiu left the pair of boots that didn’t fit there.
Xue Jiu said that if Lao Jiu came back, he would find them faster with a pair of shoes.
This city is big, I hope Lao Jiu doesn’t get lost and doesn’t look for too long.
Finally, Huo Da retracted his gaze.
“Damn it, wait for me!”
He cursed and caught up with everyone, and walked into the sunshine together.
……
