890. Habessel (4/5)

Sheriff Willis said: "I don't know how you do in your industry, but I tell you, no matter how you do it normally, no matter whether you can only harvest garbage and shit."

He pointed to his head and continued: "As long as you suck a few shots of Starlight X, you will become the most powerful treasure picking king in the world. Megan Fox, Scarlett, and Christine Stewart, they will crawl under your crotch."

"At that time, you will find that the guys who are talking to you about business are Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, Jim Walton...."

Listening to his introduction, Li Du suddenly had an idea and said, "So powerful? Can you do business with the Tusenberg family then?"

Sheriff Willis was stunned and asked, "Tucenberg's family? Who?"

Bell showed a surprised expression and said, "Are you talking about the Tucsonberg family in Boston?"

Li Du nodded and looked at him and said, "Do you know?"

He has never figured out Steve's identity. He has searched online for information about the Tucsonberg family and found some families related to this surname, but they have no power.

Obviously, what he found was not right, and based on his knowledge of Steve and Elson, the Tucsonberg family was definitely a terrifying behemoth.

This is very strange. The United States is not strict with Internet blockade. Netizens can express their opinions online, so a huge family cannot leave no trace.

"I happen to know one thing, that is an old family in Boston, which has existed since the war, but now there are few children and usually engage in shipping in Boston."

Li Du recalled that there seemed to be such a related introduction in the information he found, but he ignored it.

For a family whose most powerful person is just a first mate of the ocean ship, all of them are not as powerful as Elson's energy.

This way, Bell's words did not help him, and Steve's doubts remained in his heart.

The police blockade of the road did not last long. This time they raided the manufacturing workshop of Starlight X and left immediately after getting the harvest.

Starlight X is a synthetic product. The police and hospitals have not yet developed the pharmacological components that cause diseases, so we need to follow the clues from the manufacturing workshop.

The police evacuated and the convoy continued to march.

They entered the slums and then stopped at the open space at the entrance of a seemingly bankrupt factory.

There is a big sign on the open space, which says: Do you dare to seize opportunities, follow your dreams, take risks, fall in love, believe in yourself, ask questions, let go, make mistakes, do it again, tell the truth, be responsible, find happiness, live in the present -?

The big brand itself is blurred, not because of the wind and rain, but because someone has smeared all kinds of things up. Judging from the color and smell of these things, they should be excrement.

In addition, there was a damage on the sign. Brother Wolf took a look and judged it, saying, "This is a bullet hole."

After their car stopped, many people suddenly ran out, most of whom were children, and a small number were adults. Most of them were in wheelchairs or holding crutches and armrests. They were disabled.

Seeing Bell, these people cheered and someone asked, "Hi Chris, you are here, you are here, thank God!"

"We thought you wouldn't come again," a black man with crutches smiled. "The police blocked the road early this morning, and they said that even a fly could not fly in."

Bell went up and shook hands with him, and said, "The fly did not fly in. My treasure picker companions and I are here. Hi, Byron, are you safe lately?"

Byron, a black man, shrugged, "That's it. Except that his legs hurt a little from time to time, the overall situation is pretty good, at least life can continue."

Bell gave him some shopping vouchers, took out a box from the carriage, and said, "This is what a guy, I, hope it will help you."

Byron opened the box and inside it was a pair of prosthetics flashing with metallic colors. The color was silver. He patted it with his hands and made a clanging sound.

"Cool, you've found my legs." Byron laughed.

He pulled open his pants and exposed two broken prosthetics inside.

The people and children who came out surrounded them, Bell waved and brought the treasure-picking people into the door, and a new world was presented to them.

This is a abandoned factory with a vast workshop, a dense small building, and a basketball court, badminton court and other sports venues.

The grass outside the factory is sorted out in an orderly manner, with washing clothes and bedding hanging on the open space. Most of them are worn out and cleaned, completely different from the messy slums outside.

A news car drove in, someone looked around holding the camera, and a female reporter smiled, first interviewing Bell, then interviewing other treasure pickers and slums.

Bell was familiar with this, and he quickly finished his answer and came over to greet Li Du and others who participated in this kind of charity for the first time.

Hans said: "You also found a reporter? Is it from California TV? This is really amazing."

Bell smiled and said, "I said that I will not let everyone do charity for nothing, and will give everyone some rewards. Obviously, my reward is to give everyone a chance to be on TV."

Li Du was wandering outside, and a boy said to him: "Brother, don't leave the castle, don't go to the alley where there is no one. We don't want to collect your body."

Some blacks and Mexicans stayed in the streets and alleys not far from the factory. They were playing with knives and weapons in their hands, their eyes were straightforward and cruel, like a group of wolves.

Slums are a severely affected area of ​​public security in all parts of the United States. There are all kinds of idle people living in the streets. Li Du has never been exposed to this kind of environment, but he can feel from the clothes and even the eyes of people here that this is hell.

The streets and buildings in Habersel are messy, old and dirty, with garbage cigarette butts everywhere, and there are various black graffiti on the walls. The meaning of graffiti can refer to things like male and female genitals.

Li Du glanced around and looked around. It seemed that there was no clean building or a clean and energetic person who could see.

This is the gap between the rich and the poor in the United States. He has read the "Jane's Financial Report". Last year, the richest 1% of the population in the United States received 22% of the country's income, and the richest one-thousandth of the population received 11% of the income.

Since 2009, 95% of all income increased in the United States has flowed to 1% of the wealthiest groups. Recently released demographic survey data shows that the median income in the United States has not changed in almost 25 years!
