Chapter 763 Going Home (please vote for the big chapter)
The early morning sunshine shone on the crystal snow. The young man's thin body walked through the shadows under the alley and carefully looked at the surrounding environment.
Although one day and two nights had passed, some shell casings embedded in the ground and damaged walls that were not covered by snow still spoke of the fierce battle that took place that night.
Finally, He Ao's footsteps stopped at the exit of the alleyway. He squatted down and pushed away the snow with his thin palms. A large mass of blood soaked in the snow appeared in his field of vision.
He was silent for a moment, then raised his head and looked ahead.
Traffic passed in front of him, and a wide but old street appeared in front of him.
The night before yesterday, Iroh was on this street, riding an off-road vehicle and 'passing by' his parents.
He 'saw' his parents fall in front of him, and watched his parents' blood-stained bodies fall in front of the speeding off-road vehicle.
This area should be the gathering place agreed upon by my father and brother, so the off-road vehicle drove in this direction.
However, the parents failed to arrive at the meeting place in the end, and Ilo's SUV was damaged and failed to stop at the meeting place.
So they passed each other on this street.
Iroh saw his parents for the last time.
He Ao shrugged the tip of his nose, blinked his eyes, then stood up from the ground, turned his eyes and looked around.
The remains of my parents are not here. They were either taken away by scavengers or something happened to them in an accident.
It stands to reason that since it snowed yesterday, the scavengers in a chaotic area like Aka District should not be so efficient.
Maybe you should ask someone who lives nearby.
This is not an abandoned area, but a normal residential area. Even if bullets rain like rain outside the windows, people living here cannot leave their homes and run to other places.
There must have been eyewitnesses to the big movement that night.
There are no outdoor cameras around. There are some shops along the street, but most of them are closed and have sublease notices posted on them. The business in the area does not seem to be very good.
Only a few chain stores further away are still open.
However, chain store employees basically work in shifts, and the employee on duty now may not necessarily be the employee that night. Moreover, this kind of chain store will allow store employees to close the fully enclosed gate when they encounter a crisis, so employees may not be able to see the outside scene.
.
Even so, He Ao ran over and asked around, and the results he got were basically not the employees on duty that night.
There was only one employee on duty at a chain convenience store that night, a young woman with chestnut hair.
She said she heard the sound of moving things after the gunfire ended, but she had closed the gate at that time and did not dare to open the door, so she did not know what happened.
The employee also asked He Ao if he was lost and looking for his parents, and offered to help, but He Ao politely declined.
Soon, He Ao returned to the alleyway entrance with thought.
If you can't get any information from nearby shops, you should consider looking for some brave people who are active nearby.
"The damn puppies helped these people, they even picked up the bullet casings that could be picked up. They really didn't leave any way for us to survive."
Just when He Ao was thinking, a cursing voice came from deep in the alley.
He Ao raised his head and looked ahead, just in time to see a group of young people with tattoos on their faces not far away, searching for something and heading this way.
At the same time, those young people also discovered him.
The leading young man glanced at He Ao, took out a switchblade from his pocket, walked over quickly, and looked at He Ao with a smile, "Little brat, what are you doing?"
Then he glanced at the bracelet on He Ao's hand, "Do you have any money on you? Transfer some money to me for flowers?"
He Ao turned his head and gave him a confused look.
"You didn't really hear that, did you?"
The young man unfolded the switchblade and waved it in front of He Ao's field of vision. "Robbery, you know? Robbery!"
"Boss, this seems to be a child. Doesn't he have money?"
A fat attendant behind the young man carefully answered.
"What do you know?"
The young man spat, looked at He Ao, and said loudly,
"Look at this boy, he has tender skin and tender flesh. His skin is so white and tender. He looks like a young master from a wealthy family.
"Look at the clothes he's wearing. They're dyed so heavily in red. I've never seen paint that looks like blood. It looks very high-end. This kid must be rich."
He gestured with the switchblade in front of He Ao's field of vision, "Little kid, come out with the money quickly. If you don't want to take the money, let your parents get the money. Come on, haven't you heard that children shouldn't run around alone?"
?I will teach you a lesson today."
"Boss," at this time, another follower behind the young man said, "There seems to be really blood on him..."
"ah?"
The young man was stunned.
At this moment, He Ao raised his hand, pinched the young man's wrist, twisted and flicked it.
The switchblade in the young man's hand fell instantly and fell into He Ao's other hand. Immediately afterwards, he was directly carried by He Ao's strength and did a backflip in the air. He faced the ground and fell to the ground with a bang.
Before he could cry out in pain, the switchblade caught by He Ao was thrown out and inserted into his neck with a 'buzz' sound.
The sharp blade of the switchblade was close to his skin. As long as he moved a little, a gash would be cut in his neck by the switchblade.
At this moment, the young man felt that his mind was completely blank. He could not understand why such a child had so much strength and why he could be subdued in one fell swoop.
He wanted to call for help, but was shocked to find that several of his followers had disappeared in a flash the moment he fell to the ground.
He wanted to break free, but one hand was tightly clamped by the young man, and the twisted arm clamped his body.
Then, he heard a cold voice from behind, "I ask, you answer."
The voice was young and hoarse, and it should have sounded unintimidating, but it was like a whisper that passed through his soul, making him tremble subconsciously.
A cold feeling climbed up his back in an instant. He didn't know whether it came from the snow on the ground or from the boy's voice.
He shivered and wanted to nod, but almost the moment his neck moved, he felt the cold blade of the switchblade, and then he subconsciously tensed his body.
"Are you picking up things in this alley?"
He Ao ignored the young man's movements and asked quickly, "What did you pick up?"
"Bullet casings, bro,"
The young man paused, and then before He Ao asked, he took the initiative to pour beans and said, "There seemed to be a security company fighting here the night before yesterday. Let's come over and see if there is anything good left here that they don't want, even bullets.
If you collect the shells, you can sell them for a lot of money."
"You just found out the news today?"
He Ao continued to ask.
"We knew it the night before yesterday, but we didn't win over the nearby Puppy Gang. We can only wait until they finish harvesting before coming here."
The young man answered quickly.
"You were here the night before yesterday. Did you see the body?"
He Ao asked in a low voice.
"like···"
The young man paused and seemed to be thinking.
"Um?"
He Ao raised his eyebrows slightly and exerted force on his hands.
"Ah! Yes! Yes! Yes!"
The young man screamed in pain, "I was hiding in the alley across the street and saw a group of people in black suits, who seemed to be people from the security company involved in the shootout, taking away all the bodies."
"All the corpses?" He Ao asked calmly, "Have the corpses of both warring parties been taken away? Do you know who the warring parties are?"
"It seems that they have all been transported away. The clothes of the corpses were all different and they were all pulled into the car, but I couldn't identify who was who. It was so chaotic that I didn't even dare to poke my head in."
The young man said carefully.
He Ao fell into a brief silence.
Combined with what the chain convenience store clerk said about the sound of moving things, it seems that the person who attacked the parents did take away the 'remains' of the parents.
Theoretically speaking, this kind of battle will only take away one's own remains. After all, one more corpse means more burial expenses.
Unless they hold the corpse for use.
"Brother, brother, I was wrong, brother, please let me go."
When the young man heard that He Ao stopped asking questions, he said carefully and tremblingly.
"get out."
He Ao let go of his hand.
"Thank you, brother, thank you, brother. If you take a walk to pick up money, meet a rich woman on the road, buy lottery tickets and win a big prize, you will live a long life."
