Chapter 173 Death Anniversary It is their death anniversary, and also hers
The big sister drank another cup of tea, but this time she didn't drink it so quickly. Instead, she savored the taste carefully.
The tea was still steaming when it was handed to her. When she blew away the rising vapor, she felt as if she had blown away something.
"Later, of course, I walked around the streets and alleys, traveling all over the country, hoping to make something of myself." She turned the teacup in her hand, not even minding the heat.
The real NPC took a closer look at the other person's hand and found that it did not look like the hand of an unmarried Omega of this age.
In the public's impression, these Omegas should have delicate and smooth skin, just like the young master sitting next to him.
But the hand holding the teacup was covered with calluses.
Perhaps from this little detail, he could tell how much the other person had experienced over the years.
However, he also understood that what he could imagine was definitely just the tip of the iceberg of her life experience.
But fortunately, she is not mysterious, and can even be said to be very eager to share.
He had enough time to listen to the other person's story and take the opportunity to experience another life.
She took the last sip of tea and said, "I was too naive at the time and didn't realize how difficult my situation was. Or maybe I left school so easily that I thought survival was an easy thing."
Everyone exchanged glances but remained quiet.
Most of them came to this place because they couldn't survive outside.
This is not their home, but it is a rare place for them to stay in this world.
Before coming here, they had been unable to live the life they wanted due to worldly pressure.
After coming here, they suffered from prejudice, and listening to the big sister's experience became a good way for them to relieve stress.
Whenever they have something bothering them, they are willing to listen to her talk.
Those experiences are so far away from most people's lives that they seem like legends.
But when they thought that the protagonist of the legend was among them, they gained courage.
Have the courage to resist and the courage to pursue yourself.
The counselors don't want their students to have to hide in this place in order to continue living.
This is a refuge for many Omegas who are in bad situations or have tragic experiences, but this young master should always be bright and beautiful instead of hiding in a fortress that may collapse at any time.
They came to the headquarters to hide away temporarily, not to live there permanently.
What's more, an undisciplined child like Xiao Ou will be thrown out from here sooner or later.
He had no doubt about this, after all, he knew his own students well.
This place is definitely not suitable for each other, so being able to return home safely is naturally the best option.
But you also need to have a home to return to.
Now the attitude of the other party’s parents and brothers... he is not very sure.
Xiao Ou is the most beloved child in their family, and in theory he can return home at any time.
But the essence of the cause of this conflict can be said to be that they want the child to "leave" home, marry someone else and form a new family.
The big sister continued to tell the story: "I did go to a city farther away. I even went to a big city. In my eyes at that time, it was simply the center of the empire. Countless people from all over the world gathered there. I was just a junior high school student and I was inconspicuous at all."
Although she is not tall now, no one dares to say that she is inconspicuous.
"I wanted to settle down there, but I couldn't find a decent job," she said with a self-deprecating smile. "Even today, employing Omega child labor is a felony. I think my enthusiasm back then was stupid now."
Some people leave their hometown and go to big cities to pursue their dreams.
But some people just want to survive.
"In order to avoid being caught, I threw away my ID card." She said it easily, but in fact she was frightened.
Once, I was almost caught.
She was worried that this incident would affect her "glorious image", so she hardly ever mentioned it.
It was only mentioned vaguely when he was speaking most enthusiastically, but basically no one cared.
They all wanted something more exciting and inspiring.
Those Omegas hope to be inspired by her experience, and she is also happy that her self-narration has such an effect.
What she said was just a part of her extraordinary life, but it has become a "legend" that many people can chew on and savor.
At first, it was just to kill time and relieve boredom, but later, those past events could be called the dreams that Omegas with similar experiences yearned for.
In fact, she is also very clear that not everyone can do what she does. When she thinks about it carefully, she is definitely lucky to be alive today.
Her luck may be highlighted by the misfortune of more people.
She wanted more people to be as lucky as her, but that was impossible.
The only thing we can do is let as many people as possible draw strength from her experience, which is a good thing.
"After giving up my ID card, I couldn't get a legitimate job even if I reached the age where I could work legally. After all, I was already an illegal resident," she said, looking up at the sky, but in fact she only saw the ceiling. "So I continued to work as a thug."
She looked at her hands and said, "I learned a lot of useful skills in my last job. I believe I can go further in my career."
Ye Xuan didn't know what to say.
Is this the "career path" to take?
No, what exactly is the setting of this map?
Until now, he has never been exposed to any truly "normal" job.
Is there any value in the existence of the laws here?
He seemed to understand why Xiao Ou had always been so moody before.
In this strange world, it must be hard to keep your mind stable, right?
"The third time I ran away from marriage was two years after I went to that city." She felt a little nauseous when she thought of that incident. "At that time, my 'master' took bribes from the enemy and wanted to 'sell' me to the enemy to be their 'wife'. Can you imagine that in cities these days, there are still things like 'shanzhai' that can be put into history museums!"
Real NPCs are obviously unimaginable.
He originally thought that it was just a borrowed expression, but he didn't expect it to be the literal meaning?
The elements of this map are too complicated!
Xiao Ou asked his teacher with a confused look on his face: "What is a 'Ya Zhai Fu'? What is a Shanzhai?"
Seeing the clear stupidity in his student's eyes, the counselor resigned himself to explaining it carefully.
It is normal that the young master is not exposed to these things in his life, and he is not taught in school.
There is no other way but to rely on his "life mentor" for some guidance.
The eldest sister shook her head, and was very disgusted with the experience: "Tsk, the pheromones of that 'village owner' are absolutely unimaginable in this life. I have never asked about pheromones that are so pungent, choking, and impactful. It's like a low-quality perfume, and it's a low-quality perfume that is packed in a cheap glass bottle and then smashed on the gravel ground, just like the worst kind my mother used to spray."
You can’t find any good perfume in the slums, and most of the people who wear perfume are not “good people”.
She remembered how suffocating the fragrance that filled her entire nostrils was when she was beaten to death by the man who gave her life.
To her, it was like the smell of death.
The smell of perfume mixed with wine, blood, and vomit became a haze hanging over her childhood.
Fortunately, perhaps due to genetics or family tradition, her understanding and learning ability of physical skills far exceeds that of ordinary people.
After the fourth grade of elementary school, her mother, who had taught her so much, could no longer suppress her unilaterally.
Once, there was a fight in school and she was called in.
It was a complete mistake, a terrible mistake.
Because no one would have thought that a little Omega girl in the middle grades of elementary school would use such a reckless fighting style.
What you don't want is not only your own life, but also the other person's.
At that time, it couldn't be said that she had no method at all. She just learned the fighting moves from her parents. She was not good enough in front of experts, but she was invincible among the children in the whole school.
This is a school in the slums, a place where fighting is the most unrestrained.
Even so, she used her fists and feet to gain three years of stability.
If not for this, with parents like that, she would definitely be a poor little girl who was bullied at school.
After finally getting through the process of going to higher education, she thought she could go to a school farther away from home, but she was not able to do so.
Everyone around her seemed to be telling her that she couldn't escape from this place.
In fact, she knew at that time that letting the people there live a life that was not considered a "human life" by people in some parts of the empire was not poverty.
In other words, it is not just poverty, it is not mainly because of poverty.
There are some things that you can never do in a place like this.
Such as gaining her own freedom.
She is now staying at the headquarters of an equal rights organization, not afraid to go out and face the world.
But she is needed here.
She knew very well what happened here every day.
It is said that there are two Alphas standing at the door now, and I don’t know if they will break in.
But there is no need to panic if they break in, she will come to meet them.
During the late night break-in, she was sleeping so soundly that she didn't notice the alarm.
Normally she was very alert, but last night she happened to have a drink, which was rare for her, and got drunk, which was even rarer for her.
There was nothing special about it, it was the anniversary of her parents' death.
To be more precise, it is the anniversary of their death as "her parents", and they are still alive.
That was the day she truly decided to break off relations with them.
It’s not appropriate to use the anniversary for this kind of thing, so let’s use “death anniversary” instead.
It is both the death anniversary of their parents as well as her death anniversary as a daughter.
