Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 723 Butcher Young

An idea can never become the consensus of everyone.

The organizers of the parade couldn't restrain most things except the parade in haste, so people on Market Street were still affected by this riot.

Most of them are small traders with unstable doors and windows, and new immigrants who don’t even understand the language. They were forced to leave their homeland and come to this cold foreign land, working hard all day long. But these people who have been at the bottom of society all the year round Poor souls are still getting ransacked in this riot that shouldn't have happened downtown.

The stubborn ones soon regained their composure, and obtained new start-up funds in the form of selling themselves, credit, and usury—usually a few tens of pennies spent on preparing a basket of breakfast.

With the optimism they had to maintain, and the hardships they had to endure and take for granted, these hardy, hopeless guys returned to the streets after the riots, just as they would every time they ran out of savings. Must go hungry to enter the factory in general.

The location of 381 Market Street is as filthy as most places on this street. People have long been accustomed to the sewage flowing across the ground, and they don’t know the location of the raw meat stalls emitting a stench on the street——and other places in Yanan City The residents are different. The people living here never use deodorants, which makes their body smell not much better than the stench from the stalls.

No. 381 Market Street is a model house on the third floor above the ground. The side of this corner building located at No. 381 was dug out by the residents here—people who can’t even read will not recognize it when renovating the house What load-bearing walls, they will simply fill them with steel bars and cement when they feel that the building is tilted and unsupported.

The fact that such a house can last until now is a miracle that most people except the residents here can hardly imagine.

The location of the original three-story corner building was abruptly stuffed into a six-story simple model house. These models looked very simple and thin. It was hard for Chen Yan to think of the reason why these models could support a building with a height of dozens of floors. .

Maybe it's because the building above has been hollowed out long ago?Just because the corner building is too dense, and the surrounding buildings are connected and supported by various transformations, so this corner building has not collapsed until now?

When he came here, "Chen Yan" looked at the scene here, and quickly realized that No. 381 was not a specific house number, but a "residential area" that had been transformed—or " slums” as a general term.

There are many such slums in the lower city, and the number is still increasing every day.

When he walked up the hollow iron stairs leading to No. 381, a beggar-like person lying in a "doghouse" made of wood and plastic by the side of the stairs spoke:

"Who are you looking for?"

"Chen Yan" answered truthfully:
"I'm looking for Ms. Yang... Lana Yang, do you know where she is?"

The beggar raised his head, revealed his dirty, unshaven face, and glanced at him:
"It's been a long time since no one came to look for her...I advise you not to look for her. His son is the boss of this area now. If he finds out that you came to look for his mother, your right hand will be cut off." .”

Um?Just came to look for her, and was about to have his hand cut off?
It seems that Lana Young must have had a bad time these years.

Also, is Wilke Young's son that good?

As the boss, he should be able to receive protection money and be able to support his wife, right?

Chen Yan thought to himself, judging by Wilke Yang's age, his son is about the same age as himself now, and to be the boss in a district, he must be strong enough and vicious enough.

According to his promise to Wilke Young, he needs to give some of the money to Lana Young and his son to ensure that they can live a better life.

But if their son is now the boss, it proves that their mother and son are doing well, and Chen Yan doesn't need to do anything more.

"Chen Yan" thought the same as Chen Yan, so when he realized this fact, "Chen Yan" turned around and prepared to leave.

"Hey, don't go."

The beggar called to stop "Chen Yan", stretched out his hand, showing a mouthful of yellow and black teeth:

"Give me the hush money, I won't tell him that you came to find his mother... He hates other people's idea of ​​his mother the most. The person who came to see his mother last time had his eyes gouged out by him!"

"Chen Yan" thought for a while, let go of the handle of the gun in his pocket, squeezed out a penny, and threw it in front of the beggar.

The beggar caught the penny, stuffed it into his inner pocket, grinned at him, and greeted him behind him:
"Boss Butcher, you're back!"

"Chen Yan" turned around, and saw a young man full of hostility.

The young man was about 25 or [-] years old, and his not-so-handsome appearance was made gloomy by his hostile temperament. Chen Yan usually would not use the adjective "ghostly" to define a person's appearance, but This young "Boss Butcher"...

His appearance really can only be described as "ghostly".

The moment he saw "Chen Yan", he was a little confused, and pointed at "Chen Yan" with his fingers with many calluses:
"You... Are you the one on the Internet... What is that name? What is Chen?"

"Chen Yan" denied:

"My surname is not Chen."

Butcher thought he was mistaken, because adult Asian men looked as little different to them as they did to other races.

"I'm in a good mood today, so you just need to get the hell out of here."

After Butcher finished speaking, he bumped off the shoulder of "Chen Yan" and walked up the stairs.

"Chen Yan" looked at his back, and immediately saw the cotton wool exposed from the shoulders of his cotton coat, which made "Chen Yan" realize that even if he was called the "boss", he seemed to have a good life. it is good.

Then, "Chen Yan" needs to fulfill its promise to Wilke Young.

"I'm here on behalf of Wilke Young."

When he heard this name, Boss Butcher froze as if he had been electrocuted.

Then suddenly turned around, staring at Chen Yan with bloodshot eyes, and uttered a word from his chapped lips:
"Come."

"Chen Yan" followed him up the stairs without fear or hesitation.

With a flash, Ogami stepped on the roof of a model house in a blind corner of their field of vision at a tricky angle, and affixed to a position not far behind them, moving forward in the cracks of the dilapidated houses. The building became his natural cover, and Chen Yan obviously felt that Ogami was much more relaxed than before.

After reaching the third floor, Butcher Yang opened the door of the model house and signaled "Chen Yan" to enter.

"Chen Yan" was not afraid, and just walked in.

Butcher Yang closed the door with an unfriendly expression.

As a result, Chen Yan lost their vision.

Fortunately, Ohgami came to the roof of the model house quickly and silently. Chen Yan poked his head out from his shoulders and into the ceiling, and finally got a view of the house.
