Chapter 46 The Thirteenth Day, The Relentless Hunting Machine(1/2)
Life always goes on regardless of human will.
Regardless of adaptability or not, happiness or not, everyone lives like this.
Time is like a sharp carving knife, carving irreparable marks on the stone of time.
The light blue sunlight in the afternoon passed through the window lattice and shone on my face, but it was not warm.
Ren Zhong lay quietly on the chair, enjoying the rare peace and comfort.
He has gradually become accustomed to everything around him, even the strange blue sun.
This is his own home.
He didn't need to count in details, the number thirteen emerged subconsciously in his mind.
It has been thirteen days since I came to this world.
Every day was extremely fulfilling, leaving him almost no time to remember, let alone feel sorry for himself.
Under the premise of deliberately strengthening his memory, he clearly remembers every day, every thing, every person, every beast, and every journey.
As a foreigner who has lived for countless years and hundreds of millions of miles away, he has been trying his best to become familiar with and understand the world.
Every memory is his precious survival resource, and it would be a pity to lose even one drop.
Ren Zhong stood up from the recliner, walked to the window, and looked down from the low balcony to the almost invisible slums.
Now, Ren Zhong has blended in very well, is at home like a fish in water, and can disguise himself very well, almost even being able to deceive himself.
He had even gradually forgotten the ferocity of the hunter.
But whenever there was no one around, there was still lingering confusion and anger in his eyes.
Although he has lived a good life, he still hates this world from the bottom of his heart.
Other people's affairs are too far away, but he often sees the young mother and son who live next door to his house.
The old woman is not lazy. Almost every morning, she and her son put the heavy sewing machine at the door and mend clothes for people.
Her fee is an average of 0.02 contribution points per piece.
However, due to the existence of the 10% transaction tax, she had to adopt the accounting method of charging. When she needed to buy something, she would go to customers with higher accounting amounts to pay on their behalf.
But here's the problem.
Some customers will refuse to pay.
Some customers die happily with unpaid debts.
It is common for old women to lose all their money in business.
As for the young man, he would either wander around the town like a ghost during the day, looking for casual workers, or go to a second-hand bookstore to browse the books there.
He had read the "Xinghuo Town Gunsmith's Survival Guide" for the third time.
The mother and son worked so hard, but still lived in such misery.
Under Renzhong's mansion, there are still naughty children gathering together from time to time, doing graffiti, or using the high-end alloy plate wall, which is much more stable than ordinary houses, as a goal to play football.
Then from time to time, parents would come over in panic, tugging on their children's ears, taking off their pants and spanking their children, both boys and girls, downstairs, looking at him with pleading and nervous eyes, and mouthing
He apologized profusely.
Many of the matriarchs wore ill-fitting baggy clothes that were obviously leftovers from the men in the family and were completely empty.
As long as they lean down, Ren Zhong can see so many scenery that cannot be described as spring or tragedy.
No, here comes another scantily clad woman.
She is tall and her hair is slightly messy.
She faced the sky with her bare face and tried her best to look up at Ren Zhong's window in the sunshine.
She raised her neck and puffed out her chest.
She was showing off her slight beauty.
This is the eighth time she has come downstairs to Ren Zhong in the past few days.
Ren Zhong knew what she wanted to sell.
She's not the only one either.
Even, there is him...and them.
Just a passable board house, a first-level exoskeleton suit for beginners, and a brand new motorcycle can turn these low-class people into moths to the fire.
This cannot be said to be noble or despicable, it is just a way of living for all living beings to show their special abilities.
However, Ren Zhong does not enjoy all this.
Having seen heaven, he could not look straight at hell.
There was only anger in his heart, and anger reminded him every moment that the world should not be like this.
Anger can only make him realize more clearly that he is actually incompatible with this world.
Avoiding the earnest gaze of the woman downstairs, Ren Zhong clenched his fists, turned around, and returned to the room.
Tonight, it’s time to fight hard.
…
Since the eighth day, he has spent five extra days outside at night.
Starting from the ninth day, he started paddling a little bit.
Due to severe lack of sleep, he was indeed depressed. Not long after he was in the car, he put his head on the window and fell asleep.
When he woke up again, the team had just completed a hunt and were about to get back into the car. When Wen Lei tried to move him to the passenger seat.
Ren Zhong rubbed his eyes in confusion, "Are you done yet? I'm sorry, why didn't you call me just now?"
Zheng Tian smiled and said: "Actually, I called, but Brother Ren, you didn't react at all. We thought that our opponent was not strong and we could handle it ourselves, so we let you sleep a little longer."
Ou Youning also said: "Yes. Brother Ren, you are just like being a night watchman. Just rest peacefully, we can handle it. Anyway, now we are in the morning..."
"Ahem!" Zheng Tian coughed violently, interrupting Ou Youning.
Ren Zhongzhong looked like he didn't get enough sleep during the day, which was a little abnormal, but still acceptable.
No one stipulates that if you sleep at night, you are not allowed to sleep during the day.
In fact, even if many people sleep well at night with their watches, they often stay at home lazily during the day and do not want to move.
Being awake like that is no different from being asleep.
Ren Zhong thought for a moment and said, "Then, wake me up when you encounter problems, such as the beast's den or the second-level beast."
"OK!"
Ever since, Ren Zhong started paddling confidently and boldly in the morning.
It's just right, anyway, when it's almost noon, people from the professional team will always find ways to come to your door and ask for a chance tax.
Due to heavy paddling, the team's hunting progress in the morning was naturally lackluster.
Zheng Tian, who is not stupid, has already seen through Ren Zhong's previous behavior style.
Brother Ren is deliberately avoiding the blackmail from professional teams.
Although Zheng Tian felt in her heart that there would be a risk of exposure sooner or later, it was a bit dangerous and could easily lead to accidents.
But then she thought, since this was the census officer's decision, even if the professional team discovered the secret, it didn't seem to be a big deal.
By noon, Ren Zhong, who had only been woken up intermittently twice in the morning, finally had enough sleep and was completely refreshed.
In the afternoon, the entire team changed from the morning's decline and started a large-scale sweep again.
The one being targeted today is still Shuya Mountain.
The small Shuya Mountain is like Shen Wansan's cornucopia, filled with endless beasts.
Even if a bunch of leeks were cut not long ago, new rodent beasts have sprouted and they can't be cut off.
On the ninth day, the harvest was still abundant.
…
Everyone's connivance further fueled Ren Zhong's arrogance.
On the tenth day, Ren Zhong simply went to bed as soon as he got in the car.
Others even deliberately lowered their voices during communication for fear of disturbing him.
He paddled like this for five consecutive mornings.
The hard-working image in everyone's mind gradually collapsed.
Maybe this is the corrupt life that barren people will never understand.
Playing and singing every night to the fullest, only a carefree senior citizen can live such a heartless and well life.
Ren Zhong compressed his operation time during the day, but the team's gains during these five days did not decrease.
To be continued...
