This psychologist is weird

Chapter 294 Despair
"Come on, be good..."

The voice of the woman coaxing the child came from the side.

It was the street, a narrow alley between two houses,
In the alley, at the corner, leaning against the wall at the corner of the alley, there is a shed that barely shelters from the wind and rain,

Walking along the street, the three of Chen Lun walked past the entrance of the narrow alley,
Naturally turning his gaze around, Chen Lun's eyes fell on the shed at the corner in the alley by the street.

In the shed is the woman who carries her child on her back and picks up things on the ground during the day,

At this moment, the woman was half on her side, lying on the outside of the shed, blocking the somewhat poorly covered shed,
In the back of the shed, in the arms of the woman, lay the child she carried on her back during the day, and she shielded her own child from the wind.

"... Be good... go to sleep..."

The child seemed to have fallen asleep, but the woman was still gently coaxing the child and patting the child on the back.

The three of Chen Lun walked through this narrow alley, and moved forward along the street.
After passing the narrow alley, there is another house with some light.

It seems to be using some kind of flaming lamp, the light reflected on the windows of the house is a little dim,
The flames flickered, and the light flickered along with it.

"...Is the child asleep?"

"Just fell asleep, keep your voice down..."

From the house came the voices of men and women,
After the woman said something, it seemed that she leaned in front of the candle and blew out the flickering flames.
It was dark in the room.

"... I see in the closet... a lot of your clothes are gone."

Then, in the darkened room, a woman's voice came out again.

"...After two days, the rent of the house will have to be paid. The wages will be paid a few days later than the rent. There is not enough money in the house, so our family cannot be kicked out."

"...I have enough clothes to wear. I have made a deal with people. I will put some clothes there first and exchange some money. When the wages are paid, I will go and change them back... I will put the money. There it is."

"I saw it... My neighbor, Maritise, found a short-time job and can earn a lot of money... I looked around today, but I couldn't find it. I'll look for it tomorrow..."

"Cathy..."

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"I have a job in the store where I went to mortgage the clothes. I wash the clothes and pay by the piece. I can take them back and wash them and then take them over..."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier... I'll be there tomorrow... In this way, I can buy your clothes back without waiting for your wages to be paid."

"…Thanks, Kathy."

"We're a couple... let's go to sleep."

After some rustling noises were heard in the room, it became quiet again.

The three of Chen Lun also walked past the room.

Going forward along the road, you can see some houses with lights or dark on the front side, and you can also see some narrow alleys on the side of the street.

There were also some noises, and voices came from time to time.

"...Candice, go downstairs for dinner."

"Wait a minute, I'll finish drying the clothes I collected and washed today."

During the daytime, outside the shop selling old clothes, the stalls that had been spent had already been taken into the house by the stall owner.

Raising his head, the stall owner shouted to his wife upstairs who was still drying the clothes,

"I'm here to help you..."

The stall owner walked into the house, put down the dinner he just made, and went upstairs.

……

"...Why do you buy so much meat? One catty of meat can be exchanged for several catties of grain."

"...Not much. The quality of the flour from the workplace is better, and I sold it for more money. I haven't eaten these things at home for a long time, so I bought some... The child probably wants to eat it too, seeing how he swallows. .”

"...I won't allow it next time, there are several catties of grain..."

The man who sells flour on the street during the day is also in the house. It seems that the family is really busy making dinner.

There were rustling noises, voices, and some lights from inside the house.

……

"...What a delicious dinner, I feel like I'll be able to sleep well tonight."

"...Moke seems to be getting married. I met him and his fiancée during the day and invited us to the auditorium the day after tomorrow to witness their wedding."

"... That kid Mo Ke... has reached the age of marriage."

"...When the factory pays wages in two days, let's buy some meat and come back..."

In the tall and low old houses on the side of the street, in the narrow alleys on the side of the street, there are some small rustling sounds, or some trivial words,
There are voices of children, voices of adults,

Some couples were talking about trivial things, and some couples were looking forward to the future.

It seems that the figures seen during the day when this street is still busy can all be gathered here and found in the houses crowded on this street.

Trivial voices continued to be heard from the street,
Chen Lun turned his head back again, landed in front of him, moved his feet, and walked across the street,

The three of Chen Lun walked forward, walked gradually through this street, and gradually walked to the end of this street,

This time, at the end of this street, there is no corner and no way to go. The end of the street and beyond has been submerged in the inextricable darkness.

Chen Lun stopped, his eyes fell in front of him, Shu Rou and Rao Chang followed and stood by Chen Lun's side.

Behind him, he could still hear some rustling and voices coming from the street he passed by.

"...The current sky is probably the time when the city of Morina was bombed."

Shu Rou raised her head a little, and looked at the sky above her head.

The sky of this street has been replaced by the spreading night,

I can't see the stars and the moon, but it's only covered by the cloudy clouds that stretch their teeth and claws.

The street that passed behind was also submerged by the permeating night, but there were barely some houses, and the houses were lit with dim lights.

Before answering, Chen Lun raised his head a little, looked at the dark night above his head, and then lowered his gaze a little.

"... Mom... what is that?"

"It's like the stars are falling."

At this moment, behind the three of Chen Lun, on the street they walked by,
A very clear child's voice sounded, and there was still some doubts in the tone.

"... run!"

Immediately afterwards, there was a heart-piercing cry from a mother,

"... run away!"

"Boom!"

Immediately afterwards, there was a deafening sound of shells exploding.

Chen Lun turned around and looked at the street he had walked before,
On the street, the original tranquility was shattered by shells falling from the sky.

On the street, there were all kinds of painful, heart-piercing, and fearful cries intertwined.

Cannonballs fell from the sky and landed on the houses on the street, on the street in front of the houses,

A series of old and dilapidated houses, under the bombardment,

The house is collapsing, the walls are crumbling, the house is collapsing, and there are shell fragments flying everywhere, and all kinds of things are splashed on the ground.

"……what!"

"The house is going to collapse, run, run..."

"...Mom, mom! Woohoo..."

Amidst the deafening explosion of shells and the roar of houses collapsing,
Mixed with the screams and heart-piercing shouts from the people in the houses on this street,

Frightened at first, the child, who had no time to cry, gradually began to cry,
It was just crying and shouting, and it stopped abruptly, drowned by the roar of shells.

There was a figure on the street, torn apart by the shells falling on his side.

There was a figure in the house, the old house was bombed and collapsed, the collapsed roof pressed half of the body, and screamed in pain, followed by the whole house collapsed, and there was no scream. up.

A figure ran out of the house before the house was about to collapse, trying to avoid the collapse of the house,

It's just that outside the house and on the street, they were also bombarded by artillery fire, splashing shrapnel, stones, and various broken things. There was nowhere to hide,

Instead, looking at the houses occupied by the bombers on the street, the screams of others, and the shells constantly exploding on the street, I was a little dazed.
