Under the bright sunshine, Gorman drove the small fishing boat slowly to the edge of the abandoned dock on the other side of the lake.
Before everyone disembarked, Gorman turned off the engine and reminded, "In order for all of you to concentrate on the work at hand, please leave your communication tools and electronic equipment on the ship now."
Hearing this, these people didn't have any objections. They each took out mobile phones, watches, tablets and other things, and placed them in a plastic basin prepared by Gorman in advance.
What made Wei Ran particularly concerned was that what the young man named Niniel handed over was a slightly outdated BlackBerry push-button phone that was not turned on at all, and two spare batteries.
Seeing that Wei Ran seemed to have noticed his cell phone, the young man named Niner took the initiative and asked slowly in a hoarse and deep voice, "Do you want to exchange contact information with me?"
"If it's possible, I'd be very happy and honored." As Wei Ran spoke, he took out his business card from his pocket and handed it to the other party with both hands. He took the business card with both hands and glanced at it, and Ninel took it out of his pocket.
An atomic seal was printed on the business card with a red email address, and then returned to Wei Ran.
"My cell phone may be unreachable at any time, but I can always be contacted by email." After finishing speaking, Ninel had already put away the seal and jumped onto the pier.
"Do you need me to give you another business card?" Wei Ran asked as he put away the stamped business card.
"No, I've already remembered it." Ninel raised his hand without looking back.
He's a weirdo...
Wei Ran muttered secretly, and was the last one to jump onto the dock, letting Gorman lead them along a gravel road overgrown with grass to the locked fishery prison No. 33!
Opening the rusty iron door amidst the clanking noise, everyone also discovered that a lot of things had been placed in advance in the open space full of weeds.
Among these items were tents with packaging, two large barrels of fuel, and even a generator, several lawnmowers, motorcycle saws, and even two particularly conspicuous small wheel loaders.
Of course, in addition to these things, there are also buckets of paint, roller brushes and iron brushes for polishing that are also packaged, and there are even a few travel bags with people's names on them, as well as some insulated boxes and ice cubes.
Blocks of preserved ingredients and simple cooking tools.
"Teacher Gorman, what are you going to do...hey! Where are you going, old guy?" Jima asked warily when he saw that Gorman had turned around and walked back.
"Of course I'm going back to do my business."
Gorman said matter-of-factly, "I'll give you a week to clean up all the weeds and garbage in the prison yard, as well as the road leading to the dock from the door, and then repaint all the doors and windows."
"Can…"
"I will come here every day to deliver food and daily necessities to you."
Gorman didn't give these young people a chance to speak at all, "Okay, kids, work hard and don't get into trouble."
Before he could finish his words, the young man named Niner had already unscrewed the lid of the oil drum, obviously preparing to burn the weeds here as quickly as possible.
"The fire can only be used for cooking and boiling water. The weeds must be carefully cleaned with the tools I prepared for you."
Gorman said one step ahead, "Nineel, you are responsible for protecting the safety of others. Victor, you are responsible for supervising that everyone is not allowed to eat fish in the lake.
Jima, you are responsible for protecting all the girls, not allowing them to be harmed or molesting them. Maya, you are responsible for supervising Jima. You can allocate other tasks among yourself."
"Clang"
Although the young man named Niner did not respond to Gorman's instructions, he simply threw aside the stainless steel washbasin he had just prepared to receive the fuel, and simply pulled out a lawnmower from a pile of supplies.
The remaining Wei Ran and others looked at each other, and wisely did not ask any more questions. They stood in a row and watched Gorman leave in the boat amidst the roar of the lawnmower. Then they all relaxed.
Take a breath.
"Victor, you offended Gorman
Sir?" Ji Ma asked first.
"No, have you offended him?" Wei Ran asked. "I...um...probably not."
Jima muttered something uncertain, then turned to look at Thorne and the three girls standing together.
"The last time I saw Uncle Gorman was when he sent Maya to study in Kazan a few years ago."
Thorne, who came from afar, removed himself in time, "Uncle Kajik is right, Uncle Gorman does have a brain problem, and all psychiatrists have brain problems."
"Gentlemen, are we unable to leave for the time being?" Maya asked loudly, squinting her eyes and avoiding the grass debris blown by the wind. "It seems so at the moment!" Ji Ma was the first to answer.
In this case, let's allocate the work." Maya flapped her palms and said loudly, "Mr. Ninele, can you stop for a moment?"
"Nineel, stop for a moment!" Ji Ma shouted to help. "What's wrong?" Nineel turned off the lawn mower and asked slowly in a hoarse voice.
"We need to arrange our work," Wei Ran said with a smile.
farmer machine
"No problem." After hearing this, Ninel immediately walked back and said, "I will listen to your arrangements."
"Weeding does not require manpower," Thorne said first. "I will find a way to make the lawnmower work by itself later."
"So all that's left is cleaning the doors and windows?" Maya asked rhetorically.
"There is also enough breakfast, lunch and dinner for all of us."
Olga pointed to the tents piled together, "In addition, I think we need to set up the tents together first. The buildings here are obviously very old. It might be better to set up a tent outside for the night than to sleep in those abandoned buildings.
It’s safer.”
"How about the ladies take care of the cooking and weeding, and we take care of the rust removal and painting?" Jima suggested with a hint of favoritism.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "I have no objection"
Ninel was the first to express his stance. He turned around and walked towards the lawnmower and said, "I'll clear the tent site first."
"We have no objection either."
Wei Ran and Thorn expressed their opinions at the same time. They picked up the tent bag without even removing the label.
After a while, the roar of the lawnmower sounded again, and the weeds around everyone were cleared one after another.
At the same time, the three girls each took out a large-bristle brush and swept the grass residue all over the floor into a pile aside.
The remaining three people were not idle either. Wei Ran was responsible for helping everyone set up tents one after another on the cleared gravel road. Ji Ma and Thorne cooperated with each other and used the motorcycle saw familiarly.
Several dead street trees in the distance were cut down, and amid the hum of the engine, they were cut into half-meter-long sections, which could be used as stools or firewood.
They continued to work like this until the sun was about to set. Seven tents of various colors in an arc shape had been set up on the corridor inside the entrance of No. 33 Fishing Farm Prison. And behind these tents, the roots of a street tree that had long since died and been cut down were also erected.
It was doused with fuel and lit, and piled with collected grass residue that had a rich grassy smell.
For a moment, thick white smoke steamed up, easily driving away the mosquitoes that were raging in the evening.
On the other side of the seven tents, three girls who had become friends also lit an extra bonfire, chatting and laughing, using the relatively fresh ingredients to prepare dinner for everyone.
A little further away, in various places in the prison, Wei Ran and others also tied ropes to lawnmowers according to Thorne's instructions, and tied the other ends of the ropes to street lamp poles or to lawn mowers.
On the street tree, or simply use a loader to knock a calf-thick wooden stick on the ground as the center of the circle.
Accompanied by the roaring sound one after another, the weeding machines were started one after another. Under the traction of the rope, they began to work around the center of their respective circles. At the same time, because the rope was wrapped around the center of the circle, the center of the circle was shortened a little bit, thus reducing the scope of weeding.
"Would you like to take a dip in the lake outside?"
Ji Ma, who was responsible for driving the loader, asked loudly,
"The water in that lake looks very clean, and I just found swimming trunks in the travel bag with my name on it."
"I also found swimming trunks, so of course I have to take a shower." As Thorn spoke, he had already taken off his sea soul shirt. In fact, whether it was the sea soul shirt, T-shirt or the camouflage pants and high-waist military boots on the lower body,
, these were all found in Wei Ran’s travel bag when he was setting up his tent.
In order to avoid getting their clothes dirty, everyone naturally didn't mind changing into the clothes Gorman helped prepare before starting work. But even so, the flying grass blades still made their whole bodies itch unbearably.
"What about you? Do you want to go together?"
Wei Ran sent an invitation to the taciturn Niner. He naturally knew that if we go back a few decades, the lake outside would definitely not be considered clean. But after so many years, the lake is living water connected to the river.
, naturally I don’t care that much.
"Then let's come together." Niner nodded nonchalantly, agreeing to Wei Ran's invitation.
Hearing this, Jima immediately increased the speed of the car and returned to the tent first. He extended the same invitation to the three girls and added with a gentlemanly look, "You can wash in the lake at the door. We'll wait a little further."
When you are done washing, just shine the flashlight at us and we will come back then."
"Are you going?" Maya asked the sisters Olga and Olena, who were obviously moved.
"Of course I want to go!" Before the two sisters finished speaking, they had already stood up and got into the tent they shared.
"You guys stay away," Maya clenched her fists towards Jima and threatened in a joke, "If you dare to swim over here, I will ask my brother to put you into an oil drum and sink you into the lake."
"Don't worry Ji Ma, I won't do that."
The shirtless Thorne gave Jima reassurance with a smile, and then bent down and pulled out a pair of bright red swimming trunks and shorts from his travel bag, and strolled towards the outside of the prison.
lake.
"Don't blame me for not reminding you."
Wei Ran patted Ji Ma on the shoulder, "Although Thorne will definitely not do that, the father of those sisters, Ivan, will definitely sink you into the lake."
After saying that, he ignored Jima's angry expression and took out a pair of large swimming trunks and a change of clothes from his bag, beckoning Nineel to walk to the lake outside.
Thorne chose a position about 50 meters away from the prison door. Without waiting for Ji Ma, who came a little later, the three of them took off their clothes and put on swimming trunks, then stepped on the cobblestones and walked in.
After spending the whole day on the lake, the quick work of small pieces made the smell of pebbles enter the pole center for two vertical miles.
Taking advantage of the remaining sunset, Wei Ran also noticed that there seemed to be an OTS-22 submachine gun hidden in the clothes Nineel took off, which was extremely rare even in Russia.
Of course, compared to the unusually rare but unattractive submachine gun, what surprised Wei Ran even more was that Niner's body was covered with various scars.
Some of these scars seemed to be caused by cuts, some seemed to be left after healing from gunshot wounds, and some seemed more like burns.
Wei Ran calmly withdrew his curious eyes, swam a distance away, and sank into the lake. At the same time, he was also secretly thinking about his purpose of coming here.
Speaking of which, whether Maya, Niniel, or the pair of sisters who were watched extremely closely by the medical soldier Ivan, they all belonged to the descendants of the members of the death knell, but he and Jima were special...
No, no, no, in a sense, the two of them can be regarded as the successors of several teachers such as Culp from Hongqi Forest Farm. They seem to be equally qualified to come here.
On the other hand, compared to Ji Ma and others, he could probably guess their purpose of being thrown here to repair the prison - if nothing unexpected happened, those Deathstroke members who had been missing for more than 20 years would return here.
And is buried here forever.
From this point of view, except for him and Jima, the rest of the people had unshirkable responsibilities and obligations to come here to prepare for the next funeral.
Wanting to understand this, Wei Ran, who was still sinking his whole body under the water, couldn't help but
He began to think about Nineel's identity again.
The taciturn young man with a hoarse voice looked almost the same age as himself, but the wounds all over his body hinted at how exciting and dangerous the life he had lived had been.
Of course, apart from these doubts, there is no doubt that he is the son of assaulter Fischenk.
"Wow!"
Wei Ran, who had been holding his breath underwater for a long time, popped his head out from the splashing water. Then he saw that the young man named Niner had already swam a long distance away. Looking at him like that,
Apparently he was planning to swim to the other side and back again.
In comparison, Thorne is much more normal. This strong man who came from Hasa is currently whistling and scrubbing his body with fine sand.
Look at Jima again. It's rare that this guy doesn't have any evil intentions towards the girls in the distance who are shouting and jumping into the water from the dock. At this time, he is squatting in the water with his butt sticking out, enjoying himself.
I'm cleaning my sweat-stained clothes.
"When did this guy become so diligent?" Wei Ran muttered with a strange look on his face.
Hamida Hikari Lighting Day Shift’s Big Shop 33 “Because those are Maya’s clothes”
Thorne pointed to another pile of clothes discarded randomly on the shore and said helplessly, "That's what this silly boy Jima just took off."
"This idiot..."
Wei Ran twitched the corner of his mouth, not bothering to look at his embarrassing brother any more, and also splashed in the water and swam to the other side of the lake a hundred meters away.
Before the sun completely set, Wei Ran and others, who had played in the water and washed their clothes, lit up their flashlights at the prison door, put on clean clothes, and returned to the prison with their washed clothes.
By the time they had hung their clothes to dry, Maya and the other three girls had already distributed meals to everyone, and bottles of cold beer with water drops were even placed on the wooden box that served as a table.
However, before having dinner, Wei Ran and the others walked around the yard and stopped all the lawnmowers that had been trimmed into circular areas and were restricted by ropes near the center of the circles.
As the long-abandoned prison fell into silence, everyone also noticed the summer stars in the night sky above their heads gradually lighting up in the floating white smoke.
"I guess Uncle Gorman must have put us here for a reason."
Thorne, the eldest, was the first to raise the cold beer bottle, "No matter what the old guy is planning, how about we have a drink first?"
"For meeting in this ghost place" Olena raised her wine bottle with excitement. "For new friends"
Olga also raised the wine bottle with great interest. For these two girls, this kind of camping experience was a unique experience that they had never had before.
"Indeed, for the sake of new friends." Wei Ran said, raising the bottle of wine and reaching out to Nineel, who was sitting next to him and spoke little.
"For...for the lawnmower."
Nineel, who was obviously not used to this kind of situation, stupidly said an unrelated toast, and then the three girls were the first to laugh out loud.
"For the beautiful smiles of the three beauties," Jima smiled playfully and also gave his own toast. "Cheers!"
Amidst the cheers of the crowd, the cold beer bottles collided together, making a series of crisp and sweet knocking sounds amid the laughter.
As the first sip of wine was taken away, the tall Olga took the initiative to clink the wine bottle with Nineel, who was sitting between her and Wei Ran, and asked, "Nineel, what do you do?"
"Courier" Ninel took a sip of wine and drank slowly with a hoarse voice.
"What a coincidence, my father is also a courier. He often drives boats to deliver goods to surrounding villages."
Olga raised her slender legs and continued to ask, "Which city are you a courier from?"
"My sister seems to have taken a liking to that courier."
Olena whispered into Maya's ear next to her and made a judgment, "But she has never been in love, so
It looks really clumsy."
"That's right!"
Maya also covered her mouth and whispered in response, and at the same time used her other hand to push away Jima who came over to eavesdrop.
"North America," Ninele replied slowly, "Anywhere in North America." "Huh? North America?"
Olga was stunned for a moment, then clinked the wine bottle with Nineel again, "You look more honest than Victor, but you are really good at joking."
"Is Victor good at joking?" Although Ninel spoke slowly, he calmly changed the topic to Wei Ran.
"Him?" Olga took a sip of wine and deliberately teased, "I don't know much about Victor. He is too timid."
"Don't take me along with you when you're flirting." Wei Ran directly exposed the other party's little thoughts, and at the same time, he touched the wine bottle with Thorne who was sitting next to him.
"You're a bastard who ruins the atmosphere."
Olga rolled her eyes helplessly, and angrily picked up the red cabbage soup she made by herself and took a big sip. At the same time, her cheeks also became wet due to the alcohol or the temperature of the red cabbage soup or something else.
Nice pink color.
These young people were sitting around a bonfire in the open air, having dinner in an abandoned prison at night. At the same time, far away in the mental hospital in Kirov city, a group of people gathered around a dining table.
Among these people were Gorman, Anna and Dalia, Leva who was missing an arm, and a man who had lost both legs and could only sit in a wheelchair, but his eyes were stupid and he made peeping noises from time to time.
Laughing middle-aged man.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In addition to these people, there are also people on this long table that even Wei Ran is standing next to and don’t know. They are men and women, and some are wearing majors of the Russian Federation Army.
Some of the uniforms are what ordinary people wear.
But among these people, Culp was not the only one. Even so, compared to the gathering at the Kazan Red Flag Forest Farm a few days ago, the faces of these people at this time were all filled with uncontrollable excitement - except for that one
A man who has lost his legs is immersed in his own world and cannot get out.
In the center of the dining table, in addition to the Walkman, there is a small speaker that is not too big but has very good sound quality. At this time, it is playing the last words left by the members of the Deathstroke team more than 20 years ago.
After a long time, Dalia closed the walkman she had finished working on and stuffed it into her bag.
"On the day of the funeral, I want to meet the young man who helped us."
The middle-aged man in a major uniform said and looked at Anna, "What is his name?"
"Jima, his name is Jima Arach" Anna replied calmly.
"Is this the little star you recently trained?" the major asked in confusion, "how did you find him?"
"He is a scumbag who gets bloodshot in his lower body when he sees a beautiful girl," Gorman said with a look of disgust. "But thanks to this bastard who can't control his lower body, he tried to seduce a Chechen girl named Ashura some time ago.
.
It was a very coincidence that the beautiful girl’s mother adopted many war orphans, one of whom experienced the first Chechen war and had met Captain Culp and the others. It was also with the help of some clues he provided that we found the compound.”
"I thought it was because of the historian you trained," the major suddenly realized.
"He is good at the history of World War II and, of course, script editing." Kajik said casually with a hint of disappointment in his casual tone, "I would like his help, but he can't even explain the causes of the two Chechen wars.
It’s clear, but it’s quite clear about the Battle of Stalingrad, but what’s the use of that?”
"Who knows what's the use of wasting energy on training such a historian..."
The major muttered, and then said loudly, "Anyway, let me meet the young man named Jima when the time comes, and I will thank him properly."
"It's not necessary to meet each other"
Dalia, who had not spoken a word from beginning to end, lit up a cigarette and said, "If you want to express your gratitude, find a way to arrange more interviews and charity activities for him.
Although that little guy has various
Although he has shortcomings, he is very obedient and loyal, so we are going to train him to be a movie star that is well-known to everyone in the Russian Federation at least."
"yes!"
The major subconsciously stood up and saluted, and his respectful attitude seemed a bit out of tune with the atmosphere in the room.
"I am not qualified to accept your salute."
After finishing speaking, Daria stood up and said as she walked out, "That's it, everyone will wait here for a few more days and arrange the funeral when Culp brings them back."
"Where's the bell ringer? What about the bell ringer?" a woman in formal clothes asked before Daria left the room.
"Keep looking." Dalia sighed as she stopped and walked out of the room.
