Like Hayes, Kang is an orphan. He is taken care of by neighbors in the neighborhood, so he also regards the surrounding neighbors as his relatives and their children as their siblings.
But at that time, the 12 brothers and friends from the same neighborhood who left Kang, in the end, only he returned. Kang distributed all his retirement funds, including disability pensions, to the elderly who lost their children, and only kept the medal and still overloaded his poor life. The reason why he hung that player was because as long as Kang calmed down alone, he would think of those brothers who died in battle, but he had no extra money to get drunk. He could only use these prayers to numb himself, or at least there was a voice that could make him think about it all day long.
However, even though he had almost nothing, he was still targeted by someone. The gangsters nearby found out that he had a medal. This kind of thing may not be very rare in the Astral Army, but it is indeed a rare thing in the nest. Even people collect this kind of thing in the middle nest and the upper nest.
At first, they took Kang out to pick up scatters and broke the window of his small house and went in to steal it. However, Kang was more alert. Although he did not carry the medal, he would not be placed in a conspicuous place. After rummaging through the boxes and cabinets without results, they simply decided to grab it directly, so today's scene came into being.
Logically speaking, these three gangsters were nothing in Kang's eyes before, but in addition to missing a leg, his nerves were also damaged in battle, which often caused him to twitch inexplicably. In addition, he drank a little wine today.
“…Or I’ll let them have one leg and they…”
After walking for more than ten minutes, they arrived at this place called the Ruins.
This is a dirty, huge garbage dump, full of bulky, jagged debris, which looks like hills piled up with various metals, stones or plastics. Due to the strong radiation that had existed in the past, the ground here is always soft, with steam and pungent steam rolling among various ruins. From time to time, you can see scavengers covering their faces with towels or rags passing through the garbage-covered site, and they all look cautious.
Occasionally, giant rodents with arms length run by in the gaps in the ruins, and even threaten and scream at people, as if driving out the invaders.
After searching for a while, Hayes and others finally found the location where Peak's house was located. There was a short and broken metal hut. The roof and walls were pieced together with large metal plates, which were almost exactly the same as the surrounding environment. If you look from a distance, you would think it was just a garbage dump. The walls and weapons of the house were filled with potholes and rust, and the grooved columns covering the vents were dilapidated.
Before he got close, Hayes saw a hunched figure sitting in front of the open door of the house. She was too short and too old, like a child curled up in a ball of wrinkles on her face. In the stinky breeze around her, she sat on the ground, letting her messy hair sway in the wind, her eyes straight, her eyes were dull, and her lips were covered with white blisters, both of which were haggard and haggard.
Even though Hayes and others approached, she did not respond. She sat blankly, looking like she was waiting for someone.
Hayes walked forward and glanced at the room. It was pitch black inside and there seemed to be no one.
Remember correctly, Peak should have a brother and father. Haven’t he returned home yet?
Then he squatted down and was about to speak.
The other party's face suddenly became bright, and he suddenly reached out and grabbed Hayes' arm, and kept saying vague words:
"Did you see my child? I have two children and a husband. They are gone. Have you seen them? Can you help me find them..."
She grabbed Hayes' arm and pulled forward hard.
Hayes' tears quickly burst out, and his two wives were a little helpless.
At this moment, the poor old woman suddenly fell to the ground with her knees and held Hayes' arm hard.
"Did you see my two children? Have you seen my husband? Save them! Can you help me get them back!"
Her sad cry burst out from her hoarse throat. Kang didn't dare to look at her again, sobbing silently with his face covering his face.
At this time, a figure looked around not far away for a moment and walked over carefully.
"Do you... know Mrs. Raddy?"
Everyone turned their heads and saw a person with a greasy face. His appearance was basically impossible to see clearly. He had almost only one pair of eyes exposed, covered in a gray ragged cloak, his back was almost bent at 90 degrees by a bag as big as him, and he was holding a metal stick on his hand.
"I am Peak's comrade."
"Ah, Peak, he...whether of others?"
Hayes shook his head, the man immediately understood, and then sighed softly.
"It's so unfair. Mrs. Lady and Mr. Julio are both good people."
"what happened?"
"Oh, Peak went to join the army to change the medicine for Mrs. Radie, but although Mrs. Radie's health has been temporarily cured, she waited at the entrance every day for Peak to come back. Who knew that not long after, her other child was hit and killed by the Raiders on the way to sell scrap metal. Those beasts! More than a dozen cars ran over him, and in the end there was no human form... Mr. Julio was in poor health, and he was furious on the way to collect the child's body. He had already left when he was discovered. That day, Mrs. Radie... became like this."
As he said that, the man put down his baggage and took out an aluminum box from it.
"I can't do anything, I can only deliver meals to Mrs. Radie every day to see if she has anything to do."
Hayes stood up, took two steps, suddenly knelt down on his knees, and kowtowed three times to the man.
"ah?"
"Thank you, this is what I did for Peak."
"Ahhh... no, just... it's just a small matter. I almost died when I encountered an accident before. It was Mrs. Lady and Mr. Julio who took a long time to rescue me and help me stop the bleeding... This is what I should do, I just really don't understand why good people are always in trouble. Peak is also a good guy. Every time I see that I have carved too much, I will help me carry it all the way to my house. Why..."
The man said, crying, and wiped his face with a sob.
"Ms. Lady sat in front of the door every day. Every time she saw me, she would lie on the ground and beg me to find her two children and husband..."
Hayes stood up, turned around, knelt in front of Mrs. Lady, holding the other person's haggard face with both hands, the touch seemed to be an old bark.
Then, he held back his tears and squeezed out a smile.
"Mom, I'm Peak, I'm back home."
“Pick…”
Mrs. Lady gradually widened her eyes, and Hays took out a rough and even ugly black iron sky eagle pendant left by Pick. This was Mrs. Lady's birthday gift to her son when she was an adult, and Hays then hung it around her neck.
Seeing the pendant, Mrs. Lady's eyes gradually changed from excitement to softness, her turbid eyes burst into tears, and her dry hands covered with scars reached towards Hayes's face.
"Pick, you... are losing weight."
Hayes held the other person's hand and controlled his choking sound. He was about to take the other person up, but he found that Mrs. Lady's feet were not only without shoes, but also covered with scratches caused by various sharp objects. Her whole foot shrank a circle more than normal people, and even her left toe was completely black and necrotic.
He could no longer control his tears and said softly:
Chapter completed!
