Chapter 222: Poking the Steel Teeth Rabbit's Nest
The staff repeatedly asked and confirmed, and the child's father insisted that he had not abandoned the child at all.
Seeing that the father was so nervous about the baby and didn't look like he would abandon the child, the staff had to treat the incident as a misunderstanding.
"Since you didn't abandon the child, then you can take the child back home! Be careful next time and don't just leave the child on the ground. It's so cold outside, aren't you afraid that he will freeze to death?"
The man touched the child's red cheek with some distress, and murmured: "I don't want to take him around, but if we don't go out, how can we live together..."
When the staff heard this, they couldn't help but feel some sympathy for the father and son. However, sympathy aside, they still had to give warnings.
"Forget about it this time, but if it happens again, I will report it to the higher authorities, deprive you of your custody rights, and place the child in a nursery."
"If the girl hadn't brought your son here, he would have probably been frozen into an ice cube. How dare you extort five kilograms of food from her? How dare you extort five kilograms of food from her?"
Hearing this, the man turned his head to glance at Xia Xiaoman, then silently lowered his head and hugged the child tightly in his arms.
He did have the idea of abandoning the child. His wife died, he didn't know how to take care of the child, and the child never had a full meal when he was with him.
He didn't want to take the child to the shelter because the shelter was dirty and the child was weak. If he went to the shelter, he might catch some disease.
He was also unwilling to send the child to a nursery.
He had observed nurseries, which were full of orphans who had lost their parents, as well as abandoned babies. The nursery staff were only responsible for feeding the children and not taking care of anything else. He saw several children surrounding a skinny child and beating him, and he also saw older boys bullying little girls.
He didn't want his son to be bullied, and he didn't want his son to become a bully.
After thinking for a long time, he decided to send the child to a wealthy family so that the child would have enough food to eat and live well. If the person who adopted the child was kind-hearted, he might be able to raise his son into a talented person.
Xia Xiaoman was the first person he targeted. Judging from Xia Xiaoman's clothes, she should have no shortage of supplies, and she was a woman, and women were generally soft-hearted.
In addition, Xia Xiaoman lives alone in a detached villa outside, which shows that Xia Xiaoman has certain abilities, otherwise how would a woman dare to live alone outside?
After considering for a long time, he just put the child at the door of Xia Xiaoman's house.
Unfortunately, Xia Xiaoman is not an ordinary woman. There is no such thing as soft-heartedness in her life.
When the man saw Xia Xiaoman taking the child to the sewer, he was worried that the staff would send the child to a nursery, so he showed up and took the child back.
"I know I was wrong. I will never be separated from my son again..." After this incident, he finally understood that he would not feel at ease even if he gave his son to a wealthy family to raise.
Instead of worrying about his son's life every day, it would be better to keep the child by his side and let fate decide whether he lives or dies! At least they can still be together.
Seeing his good attitude, the staff member's expression eased a little. "Show me your ID and register it. Someone will come to check on your child from time to time in the next two days. You..."
Before he could finish his words, several people ran out from a small waterway ahead, and one of them shouted in panic, "Police! Someone's dead! Someone's dead!"
The soldier next to him turned cold, ran up quickly, grabbed the man who was talking and asked, "What dead person? What happened?"
"Someone was trying to catch steel-toothed rabbits and poked a drain pipe into the rabbit nest. Hundreds of steel-toothed rabbits jumped down and bit the man who was trying to catch the rabbits to death!" As soon as the words were spoken, several steel-toothed rabbits fled to the soldier's feet in panic.
The soldier reacted quickly and stepped on the rabbit to death, then ran into the sewer.
When Xia Xiaoman saw the steel-toothed rabbits running around in the sewer, her scalp tingled. She said something to the staff, then quickly climbed out of the sewer and stayed away from this place of trouble.
There were actually only forty or fifty steel-toothed rabbits that jumped out of the sewer pipe, and more than a dozen of them were rabbit cubs that were less than a month old. The person who spread the false news is accustomed to exaggerating the facts.
The soldier went over and found that only one person was attacked by the steel-toothed rabbit, and the others were not injured, so he quickly took control of the situation at the scene.
But people nearby saw with their own eyes the steel-toothed rabbit falling from the top of the pipe and biting a living person to death.
From then on, people living in the sewers have been paying close attention to the situation on the ceiling all the time. Once they hear any unusual movement, they will become nervous, worried that the steel-toothed rabbits will fall from the ceiling and bite them to death.
Everyone in the sewer is in danger and dares not sleep too deeply at night for fear of being bitten to death by a steel-toothed rabbit in their sleep.
At this time, some people began to talk about private bases and regretted why they did not move to private bases.
The private base has separate rooms, and you live on the ground, so you don't have to worry about the invasion of steel-toothed rabbits. There are also heated beds in the private base, so you don't have to worry about freezing to death when you go there.
Now they have nowhere to move to if they want to.
Don't even think about finding an empty house to live in. It's easy to find an empty house, but it's hard to get fuel. The sewer space is small, and a piece of honeycomb coal can be used for a long time. But if you move it out of the ground, it will leak everywhere, and there won't be enough coal. The end waiting for them is freezing to death.
The uninformed survivors in the sewers envied those who moved into the private base, and lamented that those people were lucky enough to have moved to the private base early so they didn't have to suffer in the sewers like them.
However, in reality, the group of people they envied were now standing on the wall of a private base with guns pointed at them. Outside the wall were well-trained soldiers...
…
On the other side, Xia Xiaoman climbed over the wall and returned home, and found a little blood on the white snow in the yard.
When he opened the door, he saw the blood on the corner of Maodan's mouth that he hadn't had time to lick clean, "You sneaked out to catch steel-toothed rabbits again? Aren't you tired of eating them? Why are you still eating them?"
"Awoo!" Stupid human, how could a wolf get tired of eating rabbits? It just wants to change the taste occasionally.
Maodan licked the corner of his mouth. Since he had been discovered by the shit shoveler, there was no need for him to hide anymore. He raised his noble paws and rushed into the yard to chase the Steel-Tooth Rabbit.
Xia Xiaoman was too lazy to pay attention to it. He took the rabbit fur blanket out of the space and spread it flat on the kang. He looked at it carefully, cleaned the stained areas, and put it back into the space.
These rabbit fur blankets are made in a hurry, and some are collected from citizens. The quality varies. Some blankets have fine stitches and smooth fur, while others are rough and the fur is tangled.
However, they are all made of steel-tooth rabbit hair, and the poor stitching does not affect the warmth effect.
