Rainstorms like waterfalls, lightning and thunder, inside the cold steel walls, the First Central Hospital.
In the high-end VIP independent delivery room, the air is fresh and the environment is very elegant.
At this time, a doctor with a handsome face, deep eyes and clear outlines stood beside the hospital bed. He said in a deep voice to a young and beautiful mother lying on the bed.
"Sister, my brother is not forcing you. Let me tell you the truth. The child's organs are atrophied and his nerves are incomplete. The probability of survival is very low. Even if there is a miracle and he survives by chance, there is a high probability that he will be disabled and disabled.
Mental retardation. And it’s not that serious. He may not even have basic cognition.”
"Is there really nothing we can do?"
The woman in front of me asked crying.
"Hey~ there is no hope at all."
The doctor slowly took off his glasses, wiped them, and sighed helplessly.
"My poor child."
The woman in front of her was also completely desperate. This was no less than a death sentence.
"However, a young couple happened to be sent next door just now. On their way to the hospital to prepare for delivery, they were killed in a car accident. The only good thing is that the fetus was saved. We only need to exchange the two children.
After that, I will erase all evidence. As for this child, I will find a way to adopt it and raise and take care of it myself."
"But I can't let him go."
"If you don't want to let it go, you have to let it go. In his current state, if he was born in a chaebol family, it is very likely that he will be erased as a shame. Even if he is not erased, he will spend his whole life being laughed at by everyone, not to mention
Your status is unstable now. If something like this happens again, you might be affected too. By then, if your status is not guaranteed, our family will also be implicated, so think about it yourself!"
"I see."
The woman in front of me replied with tears in her eyes and made up her mind.
"Okay! I'll do it right away."
Then the doctor turned around and left the delivery room.
Not long after, a healthy baby born in the car accident was brought in by a nurse and placed next to the woman.
The woman looked at the baby placed next to her, tears falling drop by drop.
When everything settled, the doctor walked towards the general ward outside and came to Ward A302.
He pushed open the door to the ward, only to find that it was empty. He was stunned and shouted loudly.
"Someone is coming!"
"Doctor Xiao, what's wrong?"
Several nurses ran over in panic.
"Where's the baby?"
"Taken away by the family members of the deceased..."
Twenty years later, outside the high wall of the Demon City of Country Z.
In a private house with dim lighting and a stale smell in the air.
The lightbulb flickered on and off, and a buzzing sound came from the TV. At this time, a dark figure sat up on the bed, wrapped in a quilt, and slowly turned his head.
A young man with messy hair and a very thin face appeared.
At this time the alarm clock also rang.
"Buzz~~"
Su Mo got up and turned off the alarm clock, got dressed, walked to the kitchen and took a look. The vegetable basket was empty. Then he walked to the refrigerator and opened it. The huge refrigerator was cleaner than his face.
Su Mo could only sigh helplessly.
"It's time to work again."
After washing up, he walked to the corner of the room, picked up an old snakeskin sack on the ground, and walked out of the room.
The moment I opened the door, dazzling sunlight came in.
He raised his hand to slightly cover his black eyes, and the dazzling sunlight reflected on his fair face. His handsome face had a sense of morbid weakness, his thin lips moved slightly, and there was a hint of laziness in the corners of his mouth.
Su Mo came to an old street. Although it was very old, it was an urban village located in a prosperous big city.
There are very small storefronts on both sides of the street, and the storefronts are all old apartments. Due to the age, most of the wall surfaces have fallen off and are pitted.
Su Mo walked to the door of a convenience store nearby.
The owner of the convenience store was an aunt who weighed 200 pounds. When he saw Su Mo, he smiled brightly and picked up a bottle of orange juice and handed it to him.
Su Mo opened the lid and drank.
"Would you like some more bread?"
Aunt Li asked with a smile on her face.
"No, I'll just go to the bun shop next door to have something to eat."
Su Mo replied tacitly, then shook the old snakeskin bag in his hand.
Aunt Li suddenly realized it and quickly replied: "Wait for me!"
Then the aunt hurriedly walked to the cashier, picked up a pile and counted it, then walked out, put it into Su Mo's snakeskin bag, and said with a smile.
"This is this year's rent. The total is twelve thousand yuan. Please keep it."
"oh."
Su Mo responded, turned around and was about to leave.
Aunt Li quickly called Su Mo to stop.
"etc."
"whats the matter."
"The lease expires next year, can it be renewed? As for the rent..."
Aunt Li looked at Su Mo nervously. You must know that the rent in Xinjie outside starts at 120,000 yuan a year.
"As usual."
Su Mo waved his hand listlessly and replied.
"Thank you so much, please walk slowly!"
Aunt Li smiled broadly and replied with a smile from ear to ear.
Su Mo walked towards the next store with a cold expression and started collecting from door to door.
Along the way, the owners of hair salons and small restaurants saw Su Mo and greeted him with a smile.
"Good morning, charterer!"
"good."
Su Mo responded simply.
Everyone laughed and put the rent money into Su Mo's bag.
At noon, Su Mo dragged a heavy snakeskin sack to a nearby Four Seasons Internet cafe.
This Internet cafe looks a bit old, but the location is very good. It is directly opposite a university in Xinjie.
"Uncle Wang!"
Su Mo shouted in a rare voice.
Then a man with white hair came out. When he saw Su Mo, he hurried up to help drag the sacks.
"Xiaomo, why don't you transfer the money and still accept cash?"
"When my grandfather left, he repeatedly told me to collect cash. If people don't have anything to do, problems can easily arise."
"That's right. I don't see you going out normally. You can't do this."
Uncle Wang nodded in agreement.
"It's no fun to go out alone."
"Okay, by the way, you came just in time, let me tell you something."
"whats the matter?"
"I might not rent anymore."
Uncle Wang sighed helplessly to Su Mo.
Su Mo was also stunned. He asked a little puzzled: "Why don't you rent? The rent here is very cheap. I won't rent if others want to rent. If it doesn't work, I won't charge you this year's rent at the worst. What can I say to you?
Also my grandpa’s best friend.”
The reason why Su Mo's rent is so cheap is because twelve years ago, he and his grandfather moved here from Gaoqiang and were helpless. The neighbors here took great care and concern for them.
Later, my grandfather purchased all the properties and land in this urban village from a real estate developer and managed them uniformly.
Before his death two years ago, his grandfather had specifically told him that everything would continue as before until they moved out without rent.
"Xiaomo, I understand your wishes, and I also know what you said. But what you don't know is that Internet cafes can't continue to operate. Nowadays, young people don't like to play this anymore, and they are all using VR equipment. Especially...
Recently, the era-changing technology ZR and the first epic game, Star Ring, were released. Who is still playing with such an old hand-operated computer without even a single person being seen for a day?"
"Then if you don't open an Internet cafe, what are you going to do?"
"I plan to return to the countryside to retire."
"But I remember your relatives in the countryside, haven't they always relied on you to send money? Where will the income come from if you don't provide money?"
