Ning Fan's eyes lit up.
yes!
The leaders of the Three Unification Cooperation Zone are difficult to contact with their current identities.
But Song Kai might have a way!
After all, he is the chief executive.
Although, up to now, Ning Fan still couldn't figure out the status structure between the leader of the Three Unification Cooperation Zone and the heads of each region, he roughly estimated that even if there was a gap, it should not be big.
"I heard that you went to the Soul Return Basin this time for your captain?"
Song Kai seemed to be in a much better mood.
For the first time in so many years, he felt hope.
Even though this possibility is not yet completely confirmed, just having the thought is already a luxury for him.
If any father had any other choice, how could he ask someone to kill his own son?
"right."
Ning Fan nodded: "Our captain voluntarily turned into a ghost in order to avenge his brothers."
"Hey! Lin Chuan, right? I heard Old Xu mention him. He's a very righteous man."
Song Kai sighed, "But, in this fucked-up world, good people usually don't have a good ending."
Ning Fanting agreed with Song Kai's statement.
Kill people and set fires, and you’ll get a golden belt; build bridges and repair roads, and there will be no corpses.
Su Bei killed people in various districts just because he had a father who was the commander. Even if he was caught, he could not be punished.
"Well, I'll cover all your expenses for your trip to the Soul Return Basin."
Song Kai suddenly said, "Give me a list of what you need and I'll find someone to help you get it. I know this place better than you do."
This made Ning Fan and Qiao Fei feel a little embarrassed.
"No, we have enough money now."
Qiao Fei waved his hand: "Besides, the person hasn't been found yet!"
"It's okay. Old Xu said you guys are reliable, so I trust you."
Song Kai said angrily, "Even if you can't find my son, let's just consider ourselves friends. After all... you gave me hope."
As he spoke, Song Kai sighed again, "If this person has no hope... living would be too difficult!"
Ning Fan suddenly understood why Song Kai often drank with Xu Jiang.
Because of his son.
Although he is the chief minister, he is also a human being.
There are always hurdles that cannot be overcome and things that are difficult to think about.
Alcohol……
It can temporarily paralyze him.
Ning Fan had always had a question in his mind, and after hesitating for a while, he couldn't help but ask it.
"Brother Song, I'm actually quite curious, what exactly does Old Xu do?"
Ning Fan said seriously, "I can sense that he has a high reputation in Area F21, but..."
Song Kai smiled: "But this old guy seems to be quite out of tune, right?"
"right."
Ning Fan smiled bitterly, "However, he asked the Wolf Alliance to help us. He seems to be quite reliable..."
Very contradictory.
Just like his son Xu Ben.
Silly and smart.
"Old Xu! He's a genius."
A smile played on Song Kai's lips. "I just said that in this world, good people don't have a good ending! But at the same time, people who are too bad... don't necessarily have a good ending either."
Ning Fan didn't interrupt.
Song Kai continued, "As for Old Xu, he's that kind of guy... You say he's a good guy, right? He does act pretty disgusting sometimes! But if you say he's a bad guy... I'd be the first to disagree!"
There is no mindless kindness.
Nor can one do the ultimate evil.
This is Xu Jiang.
"Then why do people in Area F21 seem so in awe of him?"
Ning Fan still couldn't figure it out.
There are many people like this, so why is Xu Jiang so successful in Area F21?
"Is it because he came down from the city?"
“Bullshit.”
Song Kai seemed refined, but when he mentioned Xu Jiang, he seemed to change. "He was thrown down from the upper city! To put it bluntly, why should we treat the trash that the upper city doesn't want as trash as we want? What's the matter? Are we from the lower city so weak at the knees?"
Speaking of this, Song Kai fell into memories.
"Actually, when Old Xu was first picked up from the [Road of Grace], he was living a pretty miserable life."
Song Kai sighed and said, "You know, the people in Upper City look down on us. They think we're rats in the gutter, cockroaches, and bedbugs! So, how can we not feel resentment towards the people in Upper City? Coincidentally, there's a man from Upper City who was thrown down. Who do you think would be nice to him?"
"It's so hard to find a noble man from Shangcheng who has fallen into our sewers, so shouldn't we vent our frustrations on him? When Old Xu first arrived, there was nothing to eat or to live in. Many people would go to the garbage station and kick him whenever they were upset."
"Old Xu didn't have any conflicts with anyone. He just slept in the garbage station every day. If he was hungry, he would eat whatever he could find. Haha, someone even said at the time! This Shangcheng master is so humble, even more like a cockroach than us..."
Hearing this, Ning Fan and Qiao Fei felt a little emotional.
Although Xu Jiang looks like a beggar now, no one would have thought that he once lived such a life.
"And then?"
Ning Fan asked, "After a long time, will everyone accept him?"
"Are you kidding me?"
Song Kai directly denied Ning Fan's speculation: "Could hundreds of years of resentment be released so easily? This kind of suppressed release will only become more intense! This matter... Actually, I can't tell you."
Ning Fan felt a little uncomfortable.
This is a long story, half of it is told, and then it stops...
A bit dog-like.
"Oh! Forget it, the old man didn't intend to hide it anyway. In his life, the thing he fears least is other people's mouths."
Song Kai seemed to be in the mood as well, and he felt uncomfortable when asked to stop.
"Then there was a young widow whose husband, a traveler, died outside, leaving her alone! This young widow was kind. Seeing Old Xu eating garbage every day, she would occasionally bring him some food. It wasn't good food, just leftovers from home, but it was much better than that garbage."
"Old Xu wasn't polite either. He waited for the young widow to bring him food every day without even saying thank you! After more than a month... the young widow got pregnant!"
Ning Fan was stunned. "Old Xu is quite resourceful, isn't he? He can even pick up a widow in a garbage station?"
Qiao Fei glared at him: "You're becoming more and more like Huizi with your broken mouth now!"
Ning Fan smiled awkwardly and said to Song Kai, "Brother Song, please continue."
"That child! It's not Old Xu's!"
Song Kai explained, "That's the seed the young widow's husband left behind before he left! It has nothing to do with Old Xu!"
Ning Fan suddenly thought...
"That child..."
"Yes, it's Da Ben."
Song Kai nodded. "At the time, many people thought that the young widow was a bit cheap. She was trash that the people in Upper City didn't want. It was a bit shameless for you to cling to her just after your husband died. So, I don't know when it started, but the rumor spread that the child in the young widow's belly was the result of Old Xu's manipulation!"
"From that day on, the little widow's life... has never been peaceful."
