Without waiting for Gao Yang's answer, Mrs. John Smith thought of something. Her eyes lit up, and then said in surprise, "you're Chinese. Did John's boss find it?"
The strong man who was kicked down was still humming. The onlookers pointed at Gao Yang. In this case, Gao Yang couldn't speak. Gao Yang smiled at Mrs. John Smith and said, "can we talk in another place? It's not very convenient here."
Mrs. John Smith nodded repeatedly and said, "of course, please follow me."
The boy rescued by Gao Yang looked at Gao Yang suspiciously, turned to which girl, and said firmly on his face: "follow me, or you will be killed. At least don't see your father again until he calms down."
After hesitating for a moment, the girl was obediently held up by the boy, and the boy said, "wait a minute, I have to find my baseball."
After glancing down on the ground, the boy picked up a yellow baseball from the ground, stuffed it into his pocket, and immediately went to Mrs. John Smith and said, "Mom, let's go back."
Mrs. John Smith looked anxiously at the strong man still lying on the ground, and then at the girl pulled by the teenager. She sighed and didn't say anything, but took the lead to walk to her house after making an invitation.
Mrs. John Smith and his son live in a tin shed. The tin shed is divided into two rooms inside and outside by a cloth curtain. Although it is very small, it is clean and tidy. At least it can be called a home.
After Gao Yang and ye Lianna sat down in the only two broken chairs, Mrs. John Smith said awkwardly, "I'm sorry, the family is very poor. Why did you come to me?"
After thinking about it, Gao Yang said in a deep voice, "I'm Mr. Smith's friend. Although I only said a few words to him, he indirectly saved my life. Yes, I was also a passenger on the crashed plane. I was sitting next to Mr. Smith at that time."
Mrs. John Smith was surprised to cover her mouth and said, "my God, there are really survivors. You are the only one missing. I remember your father's name. He firmly believes that you are not dead. Thank God, you are not dead. Oh, God, your family must be very, very happy."
As she spoke, Mrs. John Smith burst into tears. Gao Yang stood up, hugged her gently and said in a deep voice: "I'm sorry to remind you of something sad. I came this time to return Mr. Smith's relics to you. When the plane crashed, I took his knife, and then Mr. Smith's knife saved me many times. I think I should return it to you. I'm sorry. I wanted to save Mr. Smith at that time, but he has suffered misfortune."
Mrs. Smith nodded and sobbed, "I understand that he can't survive. Thank you for trying to save him, but it's all God's will. I'm sorry. I'm a little impolite."
Gao Yang took out the hunting knife from the bag held by Ye Lianna, solemnly took it in front of Mrs. Smith and said, "I'm sorry, this knife has left some traces for me. I hope you won't mind."
After taking the knife, Mrs. Smith took it out and looked at it. Tears flowed again. She sobbed and said, "yes, this is John's knife. He ordered it from a knife maker in the United States. I'm glad his knife helped you. Really, I think John must be glad that his knife helped you survive."
Gao Yang nodded and said, "if it's convenient, I'd like to go to Mr. Smith's cemetery and say thank you to him personally."
Mrs. Smith sighed and said, "sorry, his cemetery is in Ethiopia. We don't have the money to transport his body back, and no one is willing to pay for us."
Although very disappointed, Gao Yang was not surprised. Looking at Mrs. Smith's situation, she knew that if no one else came forward, she would not be able to transport a body from Ethiopia to South Africa.
Gao Yang took out all the dollars he brought and said in a deep voice, "I can see that your situation is not very good now. Please take this money first. I don't mean anything else. I just want to help Mr. Smith. Also, if you need any help, please mention it and I'll try my best to help you."
Mrs. Smith looked at Gao Yang, shook her head and said, "no, thank you. I can't accept your money. I understand your kindness, but John is happy to help his friend. Out of respect for him, I can't accept your money, but I have to say thank you. You're a good man."
Gao Yang took the money and thought it was bad to force it back to Mrs. Smith, but he couldn't take it back. If he didn't know, it would be fine. But he really couldn't care if he saw Mrs. Smith's bad situation with his own eyes.
When she was in a dilemma, Mrs. Smith's son suddenly said: "Hello, sir. My name is Frye. This is my girlfriend. Her name is Ella. My mother and I thank you for your kindness, but some money can't change our situation. You look like a rich man. I take the liberty to ask you. Can you give me a job? As long as I have a job, I can change my life and my mother's life. I can do anything, anything!"
Frye looks seventeen or eighteen years old, while his girlfriend looks younger, that is, fifteen or sixteen years old. She still looks young and worn. She doesn't look very beautiful, but it's not ugly, but a large bruise on her forehead makes her look pathetic.
Gao Yang thought for a moment and sighed, "I'm sorry, I can't give you a job."
Frye looked disappointed. He shook his head, sighed and stopped talking.
Gao Yang hesitated: "as a white man, shouldn't it be easy to find a job in South Africa? I know your situation has changed a lot since the end of partition, but it shouldn't be difficult to find a job?"
Mrs. Smith said with a wry smile: "John and I used to be employees of the South African government. He was a university professor and I was a government official. However, John used to be a militia. He participated in the arrest of terrorists, so after the partition, he was soon fired and couldn't find any job. After I was fired, I couldn't find any job. After John died, we couldn't afford the rent anymore , we can only move here. Now in South Africa, all job opportunities are in the hands of blacks. They won't give Frye any positions. In fact, the whites living here are in this situation. We have no way but to gather here and make a living by doing odd jobs and begging. "
Frye said angrily, "those blacks can't even open computers, but the government will only give them jobs. They make a mess of the country. If my father had money, we would have left the country long ago."
Gao Yang sighed and said, "sorry, I have no intention to discuss the policies of the South African government, but I can give you a sum of money to leave the country. As for work, I can't provide it."
Frye looked at Gao Yang and said, "you look rich. Can you tell me what you do?"
Gao Yang thought for a while and finally said, "I'm sorry, I can't tell you this."
Frye said, "Sir, I want to take my mother and my girlfriend out of here. As long as I can leave, I can go anywhere. I swear I will pay you back."
Gao Yang immediately nodded and said, "there's no problem. I can give you as much money as you need, as long as I have it."
Mrs. Smith looked very hesitant and finally sighed: "Frye, you only have a junior high school degree. You can't find a good job. You have to take Ella and me. Where can we go?"
After that, Mrs. Smith apologized to Gao Yang and said, "thank you for your kindness. If you can, I hope you can help fry leave, but I can't ask for more. Ella and I can wait for him to make money before we leave."
Frye was a little excited and said, "Mom, if I leave, Ella will be killed by her father. Don't you see what happened to Ella today? As long as I work hard, I will be able to support you, and I will return the money to this gentleman."
After Frye finished, he suddenly felt something wrong. He smiled shyly and said to Gao Yang, "sorry, my mother and I are so excited that we don't even know your name."
Gao Yang also smiled awkwardly. After hesitating for a while, he decided to tell the truth.
"Sorry, my name is Gao Yang, but please don't mention to anyone that I came to you, because I'm in trouble in China, and you may deal with Chinese people in the future, so please be sure to keep a secret for me."
Frye's eyes lit up immediately. He looked at Gao Yang and said, "I see. You committed a crime. That's why you're so rich, sir. I don't care what you do. I can be your best helper. Believe me, no matter what you do, please give me a job and swear in the name of my father that I will be loyal to you!"
Mrs. Smith's face changed greatly and she snapped, "what are you talking about, Frye?"
Gao Yang said awkwardly, "sorry, my work doesn't seem to be a crime, but maybe it's a crime. It depends on the law of which country, and my work is very dangerous. Well, I'd better tell you that I'm a mercenary."
Frye immediately said, "mercenaries are not a crime, but they can make a lot of money. Damn it, why didn't I think of it before? Sir, please accept me. I can do everything for you!"
Mrs. Smith snapped, "Frye, you're only seventeen. What you should do is find a job. The career of mercenary is not suitable for you!"
Frye turned to his mother, spread his hand, and said with a bitter smile: "Mom, don't you know that I used to work for drug criminals? Don't you know that I shot and killed two drug dealers who robbed territory for them? You know, they only gave me a thousand Rand because I was white, because they knew I needed a thousand Rand and dared to kill for a thousand Rand. You also know that Ella would die without that thousand Rand Also, Ella's father beat her again today. If she doesn't find a way to leave, Ella will die sooner or later. And you and me, that bastard won't let us go, so I think the career of mercenary is the most suitable for me. "
Mrs. Smith finally couldn't help it. She covered her face and cried bitterly, while Ella hugged Frye and began to cry bitterly. Yelena sighed, looked at her and said, "maybe you should give him a chance."
