《fall into darkness》Revisiting the ghetto
Advertisement
When leaving, Fino drove alone, instead of going to the scavenger castle that Du Di'an had seen before, but went directly to the residential area, parked under the high wall, and let Du Di'an get out of the car and walk back by himself.
"Don't I have to be a "scavenger"? "Du Dian was a little puzzled.
Fino jumped back to the carriage and said impatiently, "We have already tested you, so there is no need to go there to test. After a few days, someone will take you to report." After speaking, the rope in his hand shook. , the black carriage galloped away.
Du Di'an frowned slightly, turned, and walked along the street to the Jula couple's house. Fortunately, he followed the El's carriage back once before and wrote down the route, otherwise he would have to get lost.
By the time he returned to No. 108, Linking Street, he was gasping for breath from exhaustion, his body was dripping with sweat, and his legs were sore. Although Jula and his wife lived not far from this high wall, only seven or eight miles away, his body had not recovered from the aftermath of the freezer, and his physical strength was much weaker than that of ordinary children of the same age.
At the door of the house, the Jules couple stood there and looked around. When they saw Du Dian appearing from the corner of the street, their eyes lit up and they quickly greeted them.
Grech said, "Why didn't anyone send you? You walked back by yourself?"
Jula rolled his eyes at him and said, "Go back and talk about it."
Gray woke up, immediately picked up Du Di'an's tired and weak body, and hurried back home. After closing the door, Jula found a cotton towel to wipe Du Di'an's sweat, and said with concern, "Child, are you all right? Those people didn't treat you well, did they?"
When Du Di'an saw their reaction, he knew what most of them knew, and asked, "Do you know?"

"Someone from above informed us that you are qualified to join the guards." Gray looked at Du Di'an's hot red face and said suspiciously: "Did you fail your test?"
Du Di Anxin thought, it seems that the identity of the "scavenger" also needs to be kept secret, and said: "Passed, someone will take me to report in a few days, but I don't want to go, can I refuse this matter?"
If he could choose, he would still be willing to learn the law first, master more things, and then go outside the giant wall to see the scenery there.
Gray breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Do you know how many people who want to go have no chance? You still want to refuse, but being able to be a guard will save you from worrying about food, drink, birth, old age, sickness, and death in your life, just standing guard every day, just It's great to have a big salary and no one dares to bully you."
Jula looked at Du Dian tenderly and said, "Do you still want to learn the law?"
Du Dian nodded seriously.
"I asked for you." Jula smiled and said, "When you go there for training, you can also study the law, not only the law but also medicine, geology, sewing, etc. It's a comprehensive school. ."
School? Du Dian was startled.
Many people can't tell the difference between a college and a school. Simply put, an academy specializes in one subject, such as a law school and a sewing school, but a school is composed of multiple colleges, and the things learned are very comprehensive!
"What is there to learn about the law? When you become a guard, you won't have to worry about anything." Gray patted Du Di'an on the shoulder, smiled, and encouraged: "Come on, I heard that there will be eliminations in the training camp, But you have to concentrate and don't be brushed off."
Du Di'an was relieved and learned comprehensively? This is exactly what he wants.

"Auntie." Du Di'an seized the opportunity and said to Jula, "I want to borrow some pocket money, and I will definitely pay you back in the future!"
Jula was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "As much as you want, I'll give it to you. If you borrow it or not, it's all a family."
"That's right." Gray smiled and said, "Having lived here for so long, Dean should change his tune."
Du Di install pretended not to understand what he said, made an estimate in his heart, and said, "About one hundred copper coins."
"So much?" Jula and the two were stunned. One hundred copper coins were almost equal to their living expenses for half a month. Grech said, "What do you want to buy, you need so much?"
Du Di'an had already thought about the reason and said, "I want to buy some food and go back to see my friends in the orphanage." After speaking, he said silently in his heart, I will borrow you first, and then I will visit you later.
Jula smiled slightly and said, "It should be, for you." After that, she took out a stack of green copper coins from her wallet, counted it, and handed it to Du Di'an exactly one hundred.
Since the advent of printing technology ten years ago, the Xinghai Bank under the management of Silvia Giant Wall has issued a large number of banknotes. In just a few years, they have replaced coins and circulated to various households in residential areas. I also gradually got used to trading with light paper money.
"Thank you!" Du Dian took it immediately, without any points, and put it in his pocket.
Seeing this, Gray couldn't say anything else and waved to Jula to make dinner.
The next morning.
Du Di'an got up on time, had breakfast after washing, said hello to Jula and his wife, and went straight out. Although he didn't know when the "scavengers" would send someone to pick him up, he didn't have to go to law school for classes these days.
"Sulphur..." Du Di'an vaguely remembered the practice of gunpowder. It was a holiday when his sister told him to make firecrackers for him, but he didn't know what else he needed besides sulfur. After all, he was still young at the time. Not interested in these things.
Du Di'an did not go directly to buy sulfur, but called a carriage, went to the slum, and got back something that belonged to him.
Soon, after entering the slum, Du Dian walked directly towards the Meishan Orphanage, and then turned into a remote and dilapidated street when separated by four streets, and went straight forward, the smell of feces and rotten bugs along the way. , made him frown slightly, and not long after, he came to a huge garbage dump.
Garbage dumps in slums are really garbage dumps.
Here, you will never find anything that has value for use. It is a fool's dream to want to Taobao in it.
Therefore, even the poor will not come here, because all the items discarded here have been turned over long ago.
Du Di'an stood far away and could smell a strong smell of rancidity mixed with excrement and urine. Many poor or homeless people were still willing to solve the problem of excretion here.
There are seven or eight black garbage dumps, as huge as hills. Du Di'an seemed to be familiar with the road. He came to one of the garbage dumps, looked left and right, and after confirming that there was no one nearby, he bent down and squatted down. A black cloth of garbage and unknown mucus, this black cloth revealed a tiny hole, just enough to accommodate such a thin and thin body.
Of course, this is not a coincidence, but this void, which he opened with his own hands.

The Hand of Sigmar. A Warhammer Fiction.
Adebar von Bolstedt was a normal young Aristocrat once. Third son of the middling von Bolstedt line of Altdorf, capital of the prestigious Empire at the heart of the Old World, but when a quarrel with his brother escalates he decides to leave his pampered home, and soon finds himself stranded in the countryside. When confronted about his presence he claims to be led by the God-King Sigmar, but with the name of the Protector of Mankind come his responsiblities. Soon Adebar finds himself tasked with ridding a town of a mad killer, and settling some lethal family quarrels.Word from the AuthorGreetings! The Hand of Sigmar plays out in the much beloved Warhammer Fantasy setting (owned, of course, by Games Workshop). Do not fret, however, as I've made it a point to make the story digestible even to the uninitiated, and maybe even be a good introduction to the setting. This work will be shorter overall, partly because its born out of a sudden passion, partly because I thought I'd try my hand at a more comfortable story than the grim darkness of the 41st Millenium (psychotic murderer and fraudulent holyman included). Depending on how this does and my time allows more adventures may be coming.While I cannot claim the places, concepts and gods etc. mentioned within as my own, the story and all characters flowed from my own fingers.
