I, the only extraordinary in this world

Chapter 115 How Deep the Net is, How Strong the Fire Is

"Your mother's drug addiction is only temporarily suppressed, and she will definitely commit it again later, and it will become more violent each time."

Chewing the rice crackers, Li Heng said calmly.

"This is the terrible thing about banned drugs. Chemical substances cause neuroorganic changes, which cannot be resisted by human will, so there is no possibility of eradicating addiction."

Of course, Li Heng did not mention another situation, that is himself.

Human beings at his level of evolution can already rely on their own spiritual will to change their physiological characteristics to a certain extent to affect the internal chemical environment of creatures, which is basically equivalent to being invulnerable to all poisons.

Prohibited drugs can no longer make Li Heng addicted.

Of course, things like Tibetan spirits are something else to talk about, they are too special.

Sangji lowered his head sadly, and sighed. He also knew that drug addiction is too difficult to get rid of. It must not be caused by this monster in front of him... Oh no!Man of God, it can be cured with two slaps.

"Go, go."

After eating the rice cakes, Li Heng turned and walked towards the village where Sangji was.

The small village called Dongba where his family is located is considered a relatively peaceful and stable village in this area.

Compared with some villages farther away near the delta, at least most of the villagers here still make a living by farming, and they plant normal crops such as tropical rice, abaca, chestnuts, etc., and they have not grown poppies yet. the point.

But having said that, along the way, what Li Heng saw was nothing worth comforting.

Short and skinny underage children ran around naked on the dirt road in the village, like two hanging ribs moving back and forth.

When passing by Li Heng, he suddenly stopped, gnawed on his nails with his yellowed and rotten teeth, and stared eagerly.

Li Heng knew that his gaze was on the two remaining rice cakes in the bowl he was holding.

Stretching out his hand to pass the bowl over, the skinny child froze for a moment, then stretched it out with the hand that just gnawed his nails, but stopped halfway through.

He suddenly turned around and ran away, got into a haystack, got out after a while, and ran back.

Reaching out to Li Heng again, he handed over a piece of mud.

To be precise, it was an ugly mud elephant with a crooked nose.

"Oh, I remembered, there was a juggling troupe passing by this area last week, and it should be the elephant he pinched, because it's missing an ear, haha~"

Sanji looked at him and smiled.

Although there are many elephants in Southeast Asia, and there are also wild elephants, they can't be seen everywhere. At least in such remote places, if you want to see elephants, you can only wait for those juggling circuses to pass by.

This kind of opportunity is quite rare, after all, except for a down-and-out team who can't get along in the city, who would go to this kind of place to tour.

After taking the muddy elephant, the kid grabbed the rice cakes in his dirty, sore hands and ran away, taking a couple bites and grinning back at him.

Li Heng's expression remained flat, showing neither joy nor sorrow.

It wasn't until the child ran away again that he said lightly: "He may not survive this year, if he doesn't receive regular treatment."

Sangji was stunned by his smirk, and turned his head to look at Li Heng.

"As far as I can see, he has at least three kinds of infectious bacteria, symptoms of a tropical parasitic disease, and some childhood diseases. The sores on his body are the manifestation of the disease's deterioration."

But this is also normal. The child mortality rate here is as high as 3% or more. This is still official data. In addition, the proportion of hidden reports and no statistics in remote areas is even higher.

As for the medical resources here, it is not without, it can even be said to be quite abundant, and it is not backward, and some are even quite advanced and in line with international standards.

Because Princess Beach, which is not far from here, has many enterprises, companies and manors, and a modern hospital is built there.

The main service targets of these hospitals are the operators and managers of major companies there, as well as family members of local big families. Such medical resources are definitely not bad.

It's just that for the villagers here, it's almost the same whether they have this resource or not.

They don't even have the qualifications to register.

If you want to cure the child just now, the medical resources and costs are actually not high. Specific antibiotics for several infectious diseases, parasite cleaning agents, plus some conditioning drugs, and a two-week supply of nutritional protein is basically enough. It will be cured.

In China, at most, tens of thousands of dollars can save a child's life.

But here, this amount of expenses can definitely wipe out the bottom of an ordinary household here, making it impossible to live at all.

So what is the most cost-effective way for the village couples here?
Of course, there are a few more babies, the cost of curing a child is enough for them to give birth to four or five more!
There is always someone who can carry the past and survive.

So the fate of that child just now is actually doomed long ago, if this reality has not changed in any way.

Withdrawing his gaze, Li Heng didn't pay any more attention.

Because of similar situations, there is no end here.

I came to Sangchi's house again. This is a typical Southeast Asian stilt-style dwelling. It is divided into two floors.

Not long after entering the bamboo gate, a thin, old, wrinkled woman came out, with a yellowed turban wrapped around her head, and the clothes on her body were not at all the ones Li Heng saw when he was in China to promote the style of Southeast Asia. The bright and beautiful national costumes in the short video are a rather old toga with a grayish white color and a horse rope.

She came forward with some respect and fear on her face.

"Sir, you are back, thank you so much earlier"

The middle-aged woman with half-white hair was so humble and weak that she bowed to Li Heng to thank her.

If it hadn't been for Li Heng's timely arrival to suppress her drug addiction, she would have already hit the wall and died in pain and madness.

Li Heng also just nodded lightly, without expressing too much.

Originally, he hated addicts very much. In his opinion, people who took banned drugs were hopeless and did not deserve sympathy.

But everything happens for a reason, Sanji told him that his mother's drug addiction started three years ago.

At that time, his father was working as a labor worker in a company called "Yasco" on Princess Beach, and he was introduced by the recruitment arranged by the iron union.

Later, a labor accident occurred, and her spine and thighs were all shattered, and she was severely paralyzed and bedridden ever since.

Yasco and the ironworkers' union concealed the cause of the accident, and refused any compensation and medical treatment on the grounds that his father's low proficiency in his work caused the accident.

He even planned to sue Sanji's father for the wrong operation that affected the company's normal production process and caused huge losses, so he wanted to claim compensation!

Later, after gaining a solid understanding of the economic situation of Sanji's family, the ironworkers' union of "Daren Dade" negotiated with Yasco to abandon the claim.

And repeatedly told the Sanji family: "If it wasn't for President Darcy's benevolence and kindness, you are also a member of the trade union, so you wouldn't bother to talk to Yasco. If you know what's good, you should be grateful to President Darcy! Otherwise, it's fine. Compensating your shabby hut with that rotten paddy field will not make up for the loss of other big companies!"

So under the "pity" of the president, Sangji's family finally kept their only family business, so that his paralyzed father would not have to live in the wild.

But the paralyzed father is struggling with severe pain every day, and his life is worse than death. There is neither real treatment nor the determination to relieve him.

Until someone sent him a "miracle medicine" to "relieve".

What that thing is, in fact, everyone knows, people living in this kind of place are not aware of these things, and there is no one who is ignorant of its harmfulness.

But so what, under the endless pain of near-death despair, any sliver of relief and joy can make them happy and forget this painful world for a short time.

Therefore, Sanji's father was immersed in banned drugs in the last days of his life, and survived the last suffering of the rest of his life.

More than a month after being paralyzed, his father died of serious injuries because he did not receive complete medical treatment.

To some extent, death may be a kind of kindness and relief to him.

But for the living, this pain is more deeply rooted and stays in the world.

Sangji's mother, who lost her husband, not only has no support, but she has to face all the heavy burdens and sufferings by herself, and she has also fallen into great mental pain.

When she closed her eyes, she could see her husband's maggot-festered body and hoarse and painful wails before his death. Under the endless insomnia and nightmares, she finally chose to numb herself with the banned drugs that her husband hadn't finished taking before his death.

And, it has been out of control ever since.

Suffering will only create more suffering. It is not a practice, nor is it a bitter medicine.

Li Heng couldn't treat this kind of person who walked into the dark quagmire with pure malice and disdain.

But there are not many words of sympathy, because if it is only sympathy, then he will be too busy.

There were so many people worthy of sympathy in this world that he couldn't even look at them, and sympathy couldn't save them.

"Since the Iron Workers' Union is such an organization, why did you join it?"

Li Heng sat on a special wooden and bamboo bench and asked Sangji.

"But it's even worse if you don't join"

Sanji replied naturally.

Li Heng nodded, he already understood the truth.

Just like people in a famine would gnaw bark, is the bark delicious?

There is no other way.

Li Heng's eyelids drooped slightly, he didn't know what he was thinking, and it took a long time before he spoke again.

"Let's get down to business first. You have been a member of the iron union for so long, do you know that they have a logistics line called GN-WD?"

This was a clue he got from the owner of the bar. It was through this logistics line that the person suspected of Ma Hongtu sent the goods to the bar.

"Forehead……"

Sangji was stunned for a moment and opened his mouth. He was about to say something but held back.

If he followed his usual style and way of thinking, he would definitely frown and shake his head before blurting out "I don't know".

Because he doesn't like to think so much all the time, but he basically doesn't want to think deeply about things that don't get answers in his superficial consciousness.

After all, answering "I don't know" is the most trouble-free and labor-saving.

But today he didn't answer like that. For some reason, in front of this foreigner with ghost-like power who made him awe-inspiring, he didn't want the other party to feel that he was a stupid piece of wood.

It was also the first time in his life that he wanted to prove himself in front of others!
I kept scratching my head, overcoming the itching that kept rising in my skull, as if a new brain was about to grow.

"I...I have to find..."

Grabbing his scalp, Sangji ran into his room, and began to search through boxes and cabinets, and soon he brought out a large pile of paper or scattered notepads.

Some of his own, and some of his dead father's.

"My dad used to belong to the iron union, maybe he wrote down relevant clues"

After speaking, he rummaged through the dust, earnestly like never before, just to prove his usefulness in front of Li Heng.

Seeing him like this, Li Heng didn't bother him anymore, but he didn't get involved to help him, so let him think and find it by himself.

And he wasn't in a hurry, it was just a clue.

It's still the same reason, he has many choices, the big deal is the same as last night, he went directly to the Iron Workers Union to have a friendly exchange with President Darcy.

It's just that if you do that, the commotion will definitely be much bigger than last night in Marta Town.

It was just a "little boss" last night, with only a dozen people under his command, and the size of the plate was only that of the shop.

But this Ironworkers Union is completely different. It is an old organization that was born after the independence of Southeast Asia. It has a history of decades and three generations of management. It has nearly tens of thousands of members. The network spans the three countries of Siam, Laos and Shan Pyu.

It is conceivable that if one day it is discovered that the president of the iron union has disappeared out of thin air, there will be huge waves along the long Jinliusha River, even if it "overturns" one or two "big ships".

If he really wants to do this, Li Heng may have to use his brain a little bit to think about how to make his actions more appropriate and safe.

And soon, Li Heng also heard the voice from Sangji.

"Found it! Sir, I found it!"

"See if it's this..."

He walked over with a notebook and pen and paper, on which were some records written in pen.

"My dad used to work as a warehouse keeper and porter in and out of the labor union for a period of time. Because of his literacy, he was called to work as a storage recorder for a period of time. These are some of the backup books he left at that time."

Li Heng nodded. Fortunately, Sangji's father still knew some characters and taught him how to read them.

After looking at the content here, Li Heng knew that he should be able to match.

The so-called logistics line is actually a series of records such as which trucks run which routes at what time, what goods are transported, and which warehouse management they belong to... etc. Any place with sound logistics management will have such records. .

As a workers' association, the Iron Workers Union actually has an exclusive independent logistics and transportation system, which is responsible for the transportation of some materials in this vast area. It is conceivable that its relationship is deep and deep.

You must know the roads in this kind of place, ordinary people don't dare to run around in sports cars without bodyguards!
They were able to walk unimpededly on the hilltops and territories of various forces. This was the achievement of the Iron Workers Union, or in other words, several generations of Darcy's family.

Looking at the backup records of these warehousing, as well as the model and code of each transport truck, they form a so-called logistics line.

"GN should mean the convoy sequence coded at the beginning of GN. WD is divided into Windsor Highway and Daoting Warehouse. There is indeed a dedicated freight convoy on this combination!"

With the mood of exploration and discovery, Sanji found the corresponding logistics line according to the law.

"Then... yes! Look at the timetable I used to arrange when I was on duty. There should be the time when the related fleet enters and exits the warehouse, so that we can infer the approximate running time of this fleet on the line!"

Enjoying the pleasure brought by using his brain, Sanji couldn't stop at this moment.

Seeing him working so hard for himself, Li Heng couldn't help chuckling and said: "As a member of the Iron Workers Union, if you do this, it is tantamount to betrayal. Are you not afraid of being liquidated by them afterwards?"

"Betrayal? Liquidation?"

Sanji froze for a moment, as if he hadn't thought about it at all.

Seeing him in a daze, Li Heng patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's just a joke. If this kind of organization can be called betrayal, then there is really no morality in this world."

"You can rest assured to do things for me, and I will take care of all the consequences."

Li Heng's calm and steady words stabilized Sangji's mind like a sea god needle.

Sanji nodded. After seeing the man's demon-like power, he already understood what to do.

However, this existence with the power of ghosts and gods, his behavior is more like a human being than the guys from the iron union and those big companies.

Soon, he found relevant clues.

"According to the latest records, the delivery and purchase of goods by the trade union are very regular. They will deliver a product in about two days. About one kilometer!"

He stood up and pointed towards the outer door, where there was a lush tropical forest.

Li Heng also came over together, staring directly at the deep valley with deep and distant eyes, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Then start here and see how deep and thick this net is"

"And my fire, can it burn to its source?"
