Catastrophe

Chapter 75: lost hope

Although the big fat man's shot didn't hit Ning Zhe's vital point, a lot of iron sand still hit him in the leg. Ning Zhe didn't feel the pain at first, and he didn't feel the pain from his leg until he moved. After the tingling and numbness, just when he was about to rush up, a room in front opened the door again, and a client who was frightened by the gunshots ran away, but when he passed the door of the main room, Was shot down through the door.

Seeing this scene, Ning Zhe did not dare to act rashly. He had seen the power of firearms. Even if he knew that the opponent was holding a gun that was not very lethal, he still did not dare to underestimate the enemy.

But after waiting for about a minute, there was no movement in the main room, which made Ning Zhe feel very puzzled, because during this period of time, the other party had already reloaded enough. According to the logic of normal people, he held a gun in his hand. , and knowing that the other party has no guns, will definitely rush out.

Ning Zhe didn't know if there were any other people in Heiqi's help near the dark prostitute. After hesitating for a while, he rushed up and pushed open the door of the main room from the side. He glanced at the room, but found that the room was empty. Ran along the rear window.

"Brother! There's still a catch!" Lin Xun then jumped into the yard and pinned the man with the arrow in the leg to the ground.

Ning Zhe turned around, walked quickly to the man, and put the knife on his chest: "I ask you to answer, if you don't lie, I won't kill you!"

"...Okay! I'll say it!" The young man on the ground sweated on his forehead and nodded decisively.

Seeing the other party nod, Ning Zhe quickly asked, "Is there a person named Zhao Yi in your prostitution kiln?"

The young man shook his head: "I don't know! In order to prevent the family members of the prostitutes from finding them, the Heiqi prostitutes will call them all by their code names, and no one will call them their real names."

"Are you guys in the market town?" Ning Zhe changed his questioning method.

"Yes! The people sent this time are from four market towns, a total of three women and one man. The man was redeemed by his family, and the remaining three women were all locked in the backyard! This is the key! "The young man took the key from his waist and handed it to Ning Zhe.

"The Black Flag Gang recently joined a new person named Li Bin, did you know?" Ning Zhe continued to ask.

"I know! He can make guns! The dirt gun that Old Fatty held in his hand just now is said to be made by him!" The young man nodded: "Li Bin is very much valued by Xiao Qi in the gang, and now he is a celebrity by his side. But if you want to find him, it should be very difficult. Xiao Qi has a lot of enemies, so his whereabouts are not fixed. Every day, he lives in the prostitutes under his banner randomly, and few people know his true whereabouts!"

"Go away!" Ning Zhe walked quickly to the backyard after listening to the young man's words, and he did not make up for his contract. Even so, the chances of this young man surviving were still low, because Ning Zhe believed that Xiao Qi would never spend a lot of money. resources, to manage the life and death of a low-level pony, so waiting for the fate of the youth may be more painful than direct death, but these have nothing to do with him.

The backyard of the courtyard is very narrow, with only a few low-rise self-built houses. Ning Zhe opened the first door and glanced into the dark space. He could only vaguely see a lot of people crowded in the room, and said solemnly: " Zhao Yi, are you there?"

"…"

No one answered, all the boys and girls in the room who were about to be tortured to the point of insanity all huddled together.

"Zhao Yi! Zhao Yi! Can you hear me?!" Lin Xun saw that there was no response in the room, so he shouted at the top of his voice.

"Ning Zhe! Lin Xun! Is that you?" Suddenly, a female voice came from a room in front.

"Zhao Yi!" Ning Zhe heard the familiar voice, ran quickly to the door of the room, and unlocked the door.

The moonlight entered the house, Zhao Yi's clothes were torn, and there were scars on her body and face. Obviously, she suffered a lot of torture during the few days when she was detained by the black flag, but she did not compromise. won't be locked up here.

"How are you, can you still walk?" Ning Zhe walked quickly to Zhao Yi's side and gently supported his arm.

"Wow-"

The moment Zhao Yi was touched by Ning Zhe, she lost control of her emotions, hugged him and started crying: "I know you won't give up on me! I know you will definitely come to pick me up! When I'm being bullied, as long as Thinking of you, all anxiety in my heart will be suppressed! Even if you are in the ends of the earth, as long as I think of you in the world, I will not be afraid of anything!"

The other arrested men and women were a little stunned when they saw this scene. In the past few days, they have been constantly being abused and beaten by the black flags. Most of them chose to compromise, only Zhao Yi has always insisted. At the same time, the people from the Black Flag Gang also called Zhao Yi a bitch, saying that she was a meat seller, but she pretended to be innocent.

For these insults, Zhao Yi has always been very strong, and even a few other people in the room who had the courage to persevere were also influenced by her. In the eyes of these people, Zhao Yi is a strange woman who would rather not bend. But I didn't expect that she was so vulnerable.

"It's alright! I'll take you home!" Ning Zhe felt that his collar was wet with tears, he gently helped Zhao Yi up, and then looked at the others: "You are free, take advantage of the black flag The reinforcements haven't come yet, hurry up and go!"

"thanks, thanks!"

After listening to Ning Zhe's words, many people swayed to get up from the ground and ran towards the door, but some people stayed where they were.

"Hey! How many of you are deaf? Do you still want to stay in this kennel?" Lin Xun asked with a frown as he looked at the people in the corner.

"My parents are dead, and the refugee village I live in has no place to enter the factory. If I go out, I will definitely freeze to death and starve to death. If I stay here, at least there is a way to survive!"

"I was injured when I was beaten before. I chose to stay and help the Black Flag to make money. They might even give me treatment. If I leave, if I get infected, I will be useless!"

"I think it's good to stay. I heard that as long as you agree to their conditions, you can eat and drink!"

"…"

The people who stayed have their own ideas and rhetoric. After all, not everyone has the backbone and retreat like Zhao Yi. They can afford to put it down, and they can pay for their own stubbornness, even if Be prepared for death.

There is a term in academia called Stockholm Syndrome, which is a rare and special psychological phenomenon. This symptom mainly refers to the fact that after the victim is treated badly or fears the environment, it will have a negative effect on the perpetrator. A special positive emotion, such as sympathy, identification, wanting to help the perpetrator, etc., and then the victim develops a certain degree of dependence and trust in the perpetrator, and even assists the perpetrator in turn.

These people who want to stay have already developed a strong sense of identity and attachment to the black flag at this moment, and even regard the black flag gang as their savior. They are numb and dare not resist the injustice in life. Yes, when they saw others go to the kiln to sell their bodies, they would despise and despise them, but when it was their turn, they would find various reasons to excuse themselves. Their cognition of life is only a function of the body. Living, I will not resist in order to yearn for a better spiritual world, and I will not know what rights and interests I have as a human being.

Mr. Lin once said to Ning Zhe, he said that when people come into this world, they must have something to pursue and nostalgia for. It was the fear of death, but Ning Zhe felt that these people in front of them had no spiritual attachment, and they could not even find the meaning of their lives.

At this moment, he suddenly understood Su Fei's words, these refugees are losing hope.

This is a sadness, a sadness caused by one's own cowardice. ?
