767 I Am Here (1/2)

The rain was obviously smaller.

When looking upward from the ground, it felt like a group of Cupids were peeing from the sky.

One day ago, the heavy storm was like Spartan warriors peeing. When the rain hit a person on the face, not only was it painful, but there was also a strong temperament in it.

The boss of the s*x toy shop in Cuba Town had a raincoat on while he hid under a canopy and smoked on the last cigarette that he had without wasting any of it. He stood up in a despondent mood, turned around, and asked the boss of the pet shop beside him, ”Tamron, I'll use a box of Jissbon in exchange for one of your cigarettes.”

The 70-year-old Tamron was cooking soup in the middle of the space under the canopy. He used the spoon to stir the liquid inside the stainless pot and said scornfully, ”You want my life, right? I'll save the cigarette for myself.”

”The rain is going to stop soon, and the road is almost repaired. The cigarette you have left may not be worth anything by then.” The boss of the s*x toy shop threatened Tamron.

”Don't tell me that you can finish that box of Jissbon before the rain stops?” Tamron chuckled. ”I'm willing to use this cigarette in exchange for a cow, or maybe a few calves, which I can sell as pets. Think carefully, what else can you sell?”

In Cuba Town, cigarettes were the most precious items at the moment, and the price of cows had dropped the most. The town did not just lack sufficient feed, but also space for cows to rest and move around. Even the carcasses of the dead cows became very troublesome.

Tamron used to have a habit to stock up on many things. When he got older, he could not be like other town residents, who could go for a grocery haul once every week or every two weeks. He usually asked others to get things for him, or sometimes, he would go out to buy necessary with a pickup truck.

Before the flood, Tamron had just finished a major transfer of resources. So, now, he was probably the richest man in Cuba Town.

”I'll take a silicone reverse mold doll in exchange for your cigarettes. It's a new one, but I want two cigarettes!” the boss said while gritting his teeth. There were few people who wanted to exchange cigarettes in the town and even fewer people who wanted to exchange goods with him.

Tamron was a little tempted. He thought about it and asked, ”Whose reverse mold is it? By the way, I want a thicker one with and a lot of materials inside.”

”Which type?” The boss frowned.

”Just like the sloppy field in front. The type that is abandoned.” Tamron pointed ahead of him.

The boss rubbed his eyes and looked over. A few seconds later, he cursed angrily and said, ”Who will get such a thick silicone doll? That's a real woman, idiot!”

He did not have the time to say anything else, he cleared his throat and shouted, ”Help, help, somebody had an accident…”

While he shouted, two great swimmers in charge of guarding the spot tied ropes around their waists, carried the assault boat and headed to the river with the now incredibly high water level.

Both of them used nearly an hour to pull a plump person back to the road currently under repair in Cuba Town.

The town residents surrounded them.

During the time where there was no electrical supply and phone signal, everyone's curiosity tingled like that of a kitten.

”Give him CPR!”

”Artificial respiration.”

”Push out the water and feel the pulse.”

The crowd was eager to give their own suggestions. Then, they saw the two muscular men sitting on the plump person.

”Cough…”

That plump person spat out water before he slowly recovered. He cradled his chest and gasped heavily.

The town residents around him cheered, and the two rescue team members kept bowed to the crowd. This was what they just learned from Tian Guozheng, and they felt good about themselves.

The boss of the s*x toys shop stared at Tamron with a scornful look, then looked at that plump person and said, ”You want a silicone doll as big as this? Do you know how much materials are needed to build it?”

…..

”Where am I?” Naldo opened his eyes and asked immediately.

”Cuba Town,” everyone answered at once.

”Cuba!” Naldo's immediately opened his dazed eyes widely.

”Where did you come from? How did you get here?” Tamron looked at Naldo with a cordial expression and passed a thermos cup to Naldo before he said, ”Drink some beef soup. It has been cooked for the whole day.”

”I'm… I'm an insurance agent.” Naldo thought about it and decided to hide the truth that he was a news reporter. However, he had indeed worked as an insurance agent before. With that title, that could explain why he had to work under such bad weather and could also help him build the foundation for his cover for his investigation later.
