"Never Leave"

…

Touching stories are always a favorite of journalists. They like to dig out the flashes of humanity in such tragic stories, and it is precisely because of these flashes of humanity that they can resonate with readers.

Only when readers feel that they have been moved and have gained something new will they write to the newspaper and spontaneously promote the article, triggering heated discussions in society, and then advertisers will be willing to place their ads on them. Advertise in your personal column.

Of course, some reporters felt that this was not "painful" enough, but it was a story about a father who died at the hands of gangsters to protect his wife and children.

To be honest, it did meet the standards of propaganda, but this story happens more than once in every country every year, and these reporters thought that there should be more pain points found in this story!

You must know that they risked huge risks to come to a troubled area not just to report these ordinary news. They also need some more valuable returns and some more impactful news.

Someone asked Garton a question, "Were you by his side when he died?"

Garton was stunned for a moment, and almost everyone was blank in thinking for a moment, including Lin Qi.

He knew these reporters were fucked up, but he didn't expect them to be fucked up to this extent, but he soon recovered.

He recalled an interesting story. In order to get first-hand information, a news reporter stopped medical staff from rescuing the injured in an accident, pulled out the injured's oxygen mask, and asked him, "Do you know that your whole family Are they all dead? How do you feel about this? Do you want to cry?"

The survivor's only thought at the time was probably "Do I want to draft it? Three days and three nights, midnight, ow!"

Facing this reporter's question, some things in Garton's memory that he didn't want to recall came to mind again, including Mr. Simon's indifference and ruthlessness, as well as the disgust and contempt in his eyes when he looked at Garton, all this and more What he didn't show was what fueled his urge to pull the trigger.

His upper eyelids twitched. It was definitely not a sad expression, and Lynch became a little interested.

"Yes, I'm not far from him. I don't want to..." Out of politeness and the fact that there were so many people watching here, he answered this question and planned to refuse to answer the following questions.

But the reporter didn't give him a chance, "Did you hug his body when he fell? Did you watch the blood flow out of his body and onto you? Were you scared? Did you call out to him?" To wake him up, how do you fight against those gangsters, or do you kneel next to your father who died to protect you and beg them for mercy?"

Garton's fists were clenched, but the reporters were very excited. They couldn't help but give a thumbs up in their hearts to the tough questions raised by this colleague.

These questions are really tricky. Not only did they open up Garton's wounds, but they also dug into them with a red-hot cigarette butt.

Someone asked about this reporter's origins. When people heard that this reporter was from the "Federal Times" of the Bayler Federation, they suddenly showed a clear look on their faces.

What they love most is no-holds-barred news reporting, but this is also attractive to those who are full of intellectual curiosity.

They didn't even know at this time that the author was prepared to be beaten, which would make him more famous and make the report more attractive to people.

But it is a pity that Garton is a "Nagalier" after all. He has mixed blood, but he is still a Nagalili at heart. He was born here and grew up here. He is a native of Nagali. Er people.

This also gave him a natural reverence for foreigners, even if he himself was considered half a foreigner.

He didn't take action, just looked at the reporter a few more times, then shook his head, "I refuse to answer these questions, they will make me painful!"

"Is it because you were helpless and watched your father die in front of you, but you couldn't do anything?", the reporter friend still didn't want to let him go so simply, and chased him.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little abnormal, Lynch stood up and said, "Although we pursue more authentic reports, we should not rub salt in other people's wounds. Can we avoid similar questions?"

The reporter who was expecting Garton to shake his fist at him suddenly became obedient. He knew very well that the best Garton could do was beat him up. People like Lynch who have become the ruling class in the local area, when they are angry, they will You will lose your life.

For the sake of his own life and the savings in the bank, the reporter bowed slightly with a flattering smile on his face, "Of course, Mr. Lynch, I'm sorry for my reckless behavior just now. I really wanted to cause this turmoil." I told others about the tragedy, so that I ignored the feelings of the person involved, I'm sorry, Mr. Garden."

He also apologized to Mr. Garton. Garton was unable to have a fit and could only accept his apology with a nod.

This is also his character. Over the years, he has suppressed himself too tightly, and some things have gradually changed from a pretense to a habit, such as his manners.

The group of people entered the room and saw the hostess of the house, who was also a local woman.

She was kneeling on the side of the coffee table and preparing for the coming guests. When some people led by Lynch came in, the hostess immediately stood up, bent over, and lowered her head.

The status of women in Nagalil is pitifully low. Before Mr. Simon passed away, she was almost as low as a maid in this family. Now that Mr. Simon is dead, her status is at most as high as that of a housekeeper.

This is not to say that Garton is not good to his mother, he is actually very good to his mother, but in the traditional concept inherent in the locals, women have no status.

Even between husband and wife, the husband rarely regards his wife as "family", but more like treating his wife as a free servant.

This is a common knowledge of the society, so the status of the hostess here will not be improved just because of Mr. Simon's death, unless she has a very prominent background.

After Lynch sat down, the others also sat down. They also wanted to talk about what happened before, what is happening now, and what will happen in the future.

Garton's mother, the hostess of the house, knelt beside Lynch again, and he was the most honored person here. According to tradition, she needed to make Lynch feel at home.

Garton's attention was quickly focused on the next conversation, "I inherited everything here, and I also feel the damage caused by this chaos. I hope more than anyone that the chaos can stay away from us."

"To achieve this, the first thing we have to do is to strengthen ourselves. This is the common wish of me and other members of the family. Only when we are rich and powerful can we avoid these problems..."

At this time, Garton actually still holds a very traditional idea of ​​​​being a member of the family to understand the world, including most people in the Al-Shabaab.

They believe that as long as the people in that family become rich and have the ability to receive education, the situation here will naturally get better.

If you want to achieve this, you must mention economic development and industrialization, so when Jiadun spoke, he said "wealth and strength". Some people were thoughtful, while others laughed and said nothing.

In fact, you can't blame who is right or wrong, he is still a young man after all.

Of course, what Garton wants to tell people more is that from this moment on, everything here will be used and owned by him, and he is stating his position.

"...I will restart work next. I noticed..." He glanced at Lynch sitting aside and smiled slightly, "Mr. Lynch's factory is recruiting more workers. This is actually a A very good phenomenon.”

"I believe in Mr. Lynch's ability. He is optimistic about Nagaril, which shows that we really have the potential for development. So why do we still want to leave or escape? Why not continue to build our home here?"

Garton focused most of his attention on the next development. After listening for a while, Lynch stopped paying attention. This young man was a little surprised when he saw him at first.

He seems to be quite smart and tolerant, but looking at it now, he still lacks something special, a kind of aura. What he shows is what he tries his best to show to people, not his essence.

This may sound confusing, but this is precisely the most critical difference between big businessmen and small traders.

When Lynch was a child, about six or seven years old, in the era he lived in, during certain seasons, silkworm farmers would come to the school gate to sell silkworms.

After selling out, these silkworm farmers will leave, which is a big pain for a group of students. They only have silkworms but no mulberry leaves, and they can only watch the silkworms die one by one.

At that time, Lynch had a business idea. He used his vacation time to go to the Sericulture Research Institute to pick up mulberry leaves from other fields and sell them at the school. He sold them for more than 20 yuan in just one day.

You must know that at that time, an adult's monthly salary was only about 100 yuan.

The good times did not last long, and the school quickly confiscated his money and criticized his behavior in a circular. Later, some people collected mulberry leaves to sell, but these people were just students.

The biggest difference between them and Lynch is that Lynch can see wealth, while these people can only pick up what others have left.

It's like the young man in front of him, who is trying to show the results of his "learning". He, including those around him, think he is smart and what he says makes sense, but Lynch knows that this is just an illusion.

There are some things that cannot and cannot be learned.
