Chapter 59: The Road Back. The First Order
Gu Ji saw the boy's shadow instantly go upstairs and enter the house on the left.
She immediately took back the talisman paper behind Zhao Xiaona, turned around and followed her.
The door of that house was not locked. As soon as she went upstairs, she heard the sound of things being smashed from inside.
Zhao Xiaona caught up, panting, half because of fear and half because of fatigue from climbing the stairs.
My health is really not good. I stay up late every day and am not as good as the 80-year-old grandma next door.
"Gu——"
Gu Ji covered her mouth, "Shh, listen."
There was a very light scent of grass mixed with wood in her palm. Zhao Xiaona's ears suddenly turned red and she nodded.
Intermittent cursing could be heard in the room.
"You old bastard...you...die...I'll kill you..."
Crackling, jingling and clanging.
There were also weak groans.
"Oh my god, this can't be true!" Zhao Xiaona said with a sigh, "Master Gu, I've heard before that the caregivers hired by the community are very unprofessional and take a lot of kickbacks. Those caregivers don't get much money, so they steal things from the homes of these old soldiers and abuse them."
She had only heard it, but she didn't expect it to be true.
Shouldn't everyone have respect for these people? Why are some people so vicious!
Gu Ji pushed open the door, and the old living room was filled with a musty and damp smell, as if wood had been soaked in water and was rotting.
The curtains were all closed and it was pitch black.
Gu Ji and Zhao Xiaona slowed down. The house was not big, with two bedrooms and a living room. Usually the master bedroom was on the left, but the sound came from the second bedroom.
Now the sound is clearer.
Gu Ji could also see a man in his thirties, dressed in a nurse's uniform, rummaging through things while poking the old man lying on the bed with a clothesline.
"Where's your money, you old fool?!"
The old man's eyes were empty and numb, as if he had become accustomed to all this.
The old man spoke, his voice very weak, "The money... didn't you take it all..."
The man's face was grim, and he let out another "Pah!" "Damn it! Isn't this month's pay due today? Where's the money?! You only give me this little every month, and you still ask me to take care of an old fool like you. I'm so unlucky!"
He began to search frantically again, cursing.
Little did they know that all of this was clearly seen by more than one million fans in the live broadcast.
Meow Meow Meow: [Send Carnival x10]
Meow Meow Meow: [Master, please, can you help me cut him down! ! ! ! Aaaaaaahh ...
The moon slowly becomes round: [Next time I must buy a phone that can penetrate the screen, so that I can kick my foot on his hook and kick him away! ]
Sha Jian: [Look at the teacher's painting on the wall, and that badge. This guy really deserves to die!]
Jiang Langcaijin: [A thorough investigation!! How could the caregivers be so cruel to the elderly?! This wouldn't be the first time this has happened, right? Two years ago, other nursing homes were exposed for abusing the elderly, including veterans. They were the ones who protected China in the first place. These people are simply beasts.]
Little Prince Sprite: [Could this beast be a spy? I suggest arresting him.]
Gu Ji looked at the pair of cloudy eyes in the cramped darkness.
She could now see everything clearly in the dark, so she could clearly see his tears. He opened his mouth, whispered, and lip-synced slowly.
But Gu Ji pieced together what he wanted to say.
"Help me."
His soul was crying out for help.
He once feared no life or death on the battlefield.
But the descendants of the people he protected are torturing him.
The aura from that caregiver was extremely turbid and a very ugly gray-black color.
It's obvious that he has done a lot of bad things.
"Hey, stop looking, we've already called the police." Gu Ji's voice pierced through the darkness, frightening the caregiver so much that he trembled all over, and finally he spotted the two people standing in the living room.
When he found out that they were two girls, his guilty and frightened expression disappeared immediately.
He walked out and after seeing the two of them clearly, his expression changed again.
These two girls are so pretty!
He whistled, "Are you from the community?"
"no."
That’s right, there aren’t many good-looking people in the community, they’re just a bunch of old women.
The man rubbed his hands and took two steps closer. He found Zhao Xiaona holding up her phone and filming him. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Little beauty, are you filming a video?"
Close eyes: [I am blind.]
Almost Mole: [Master, please, can you please give him two slaps? 】
The Moon That Never Sets: [I don't even need to be a master to read a person's face. A man with drooping eyebrows, white spots under his eyes, a pointed face, and monkey cheeks is either a creep or a pervert! !]
Although Zhao Xiaona's voice was shaking, she was even more angry. "I'm going to shoot the beast!"
The man didn't react yet, "Who are you talking about? Me?"
"Who else could it be if not you? You're a caregiver, hired by the community to clean for the veterans, talk to them, and cook for them. And you?! You actually abused him! Are you still human? If they hadn't fought so hard to survive, would you be where you are today?!"
Her father had served in the army before, but was discharged due to health reasons. What her father was most proud of was that he had been a soldier. He often told Zhao Xiaona about the difficulties the country had faced at that time.
What's more, when I was a child, the school often organized us to watch anti-Japanese movies together.
Haven’t these people seen it?!
The nurse finally reacted. He didn't expect that these two girls would dare to call him a beast!
"Damn it." He spat and pointed at Zhao Xiaona: "Do you believe that I will make sure you can't get out of this door later?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Ji placed his hand on his wrist.
The nurse chuckled, "You're quite sensible, little girl. If you let me have some fun, I'll let you go."
As he spoke, he touched his belt.
The old man with hollow eyes lying on the bed suddenly got out of bed, stood at the door, and let out his last angry roar in a voice as rough as sandpaper.
"Let go of these two women comrades!"
Emerging from the shadows, the old man's face was finally visible.
The facial features are blurred and the skin is bumpy.
Zhao Xiaona covered her mouth with her hands, tears streaming down her face. "It was the grandfather whose face was injured by the dynamite!"
The old man was hunched over, his ribs were clearly visible with his breathing, and there was no flesh on his face.
His eyes were also burned and he could not see clearly. His nose was burned so badly that only a small section of the nasal bone remained.
His fingers were twisted, and there was no intact skin. The years had turned into scars covering his entire body.
He held a tickler in his hand, still shaking, "Let go of our comrade!"
Very powerful!
Time has not been kind to him, or even bad.
His memory has become blurred in his aging soul, but he will never forget to protect the people and his comrades.
It was their first order when they joined the army.
