Chapter 46 Confirm Identity, Sorting Out Clues
Boom Town!
A mining town in Arizona, compared to Phoenix, the capital of Arizona, and the world-famous Grand Canyon of the Colorado and the Hoover Dam, Prosperity Town is not a fart, so inconspicuous that it can be ignored.
The town is located in a desert, about 2 hours' drive from the nearest big city. Currently, there are more than 300 households in the town, with a total population of less than 1,000.
The loss of a large number of young and strong people and the serious aging of the town's population are the superficial reasons for the town's depression. Deep digging is the problem with the town's economic lifeline.
Prosperity Town is a mining town, and its history can only be traced back decades. At first, there was only a mine here, but because of the needs of the miners, it evolved into a small town.
From the name of the town, we can know that the mining industry has flourished here for a while, and there is no inexhaustible mineral vein in the world, so Prosperity Town naturally began to go downhill.
...
Russell rode a motorbike around the town. Even though the town has a small population, it occupies a large area. It would take at least a whole day to visit the town on foot.
He learned a lot of information about the town through the relocation advertisement posted on the roadside. He has very little memory about the 'eight-legged monster' in his mind, let alone the background setting of the town. Now he needs to listen and see more .
After circling the small town, barely getting acquainted with the terrain, Russell drove home following the house number.
The family address was clearly written on the driver's license. Russell thought his family was of average quality, but according to the house number, he found that his family was in good condition, not only good, but also very wealthy.
The three-storey single-family villa has a large yard in front of the door, and the green tree garden looks good.
Russell took out his driver's license and confirmed that this was indeed his home. Then he parked the motorcycle in the garage. He didn't want to be killed by the owner with a gun for trespassing into the private area.
His worries were destined to be superfluous. When he was walking towards the three-storey building, a small black and white French fighter jumped out from the dog door and jumped around his feet.
"Hey dog, what's your name... Oh, I almost forgot, you are a real dog, not a sand sculpture system." Russell held Fadou in his arms, and the latter barked a few times, trying to reach his neck and meet him close.
The door is unlocked, which is good news, because Russell did not bring the key, but it is also bad news, because Russell has a legal identity but no memory, and does not know how to face the person who is about to appear.
"Stinky boy, you still know how to come back, and you haven't seen anyone for a whole day. Did you go racing again?"
It was probably the kitchen room, and an elderly woman walked out, wearing an apron and smoking a cigarette in her mouth. The old woman has a fashionable look, with curly hair and makeup. The lavender eye shadow shows that she is not old, at least she is still young.
Russell was a little confused, the old woman was white, he was yellow, how did fate make them a family?
Could it be...
His identity is a mixed race?
It doesn't look like it!
Russell didn't know how to address the other party. He frowned and looked like he was having a headache. He walked over and took the cigarette out of the old woman's mouth, and put it out in the ashtray.
"At your age, it's better to smoke less, even if it's for yourself."
With that said, Russell went up to the second floor with all his strength. According to common sense, his bedroom should be on the second floor.
The old woman was very dissatisfied, and said to Russell's back: "Stinky boy, you should call me Aunt Gladys!"
"Yes, Aunt Gladys!"
"It's time to eat, so don't go upstairs."
"Keep my share, I'll eat it later."
Listening to the response from the second floor, the old lady Gladys shook her head and said to herself: "The kid in the rebellious period is really annoying, this kid is getting more and more rude!"
Russell searched on the second floor,
When he didn't find his room and was at a loss, Fadou helped him a lot, barking at the ceiling. It turned out that his room was on the third floor, and he had to pull down a ladder to go up to the attic.
The room is a bit messy, the clothes that need to be changed are thrown all over the floor, and there is a musty smell that is common in male dormitories. The source is the smelly socks in the corner.
Russell opened the window to keep the air circulating in the room, and cleaned it up by the way. He also threw the source of the poisonous gas into a garbage bag.
The attic of less than 20 square meters has a separate bathroom, and the rest of the space is divided by bookcases, wardrobes, single beds, and computer desks, making it slightly crowded.
Russell turned on the old-fashioned computer with a big butt, and it took a long time to start up. He didn't find the information he wanted in the folder, so he got up and looked in the bookcase again. Fortunately, there are five diaries, and through fragmented records, he gradually understands his identity.
First of all, Gladys has no blood relationship with him. His biological parents are of Chinese descent. He was a worker in the McCormack mine and died in a mining accident when he was young.
Mr. McCormack, the owner of the mine, adopted him. McCormack died half a year ago. Before he died, he asked his sister Gladys to take care of him.
Gladys has no children under her knees, and she has been raising Russell all these years. Russell has settled here for a long time, and even the French fight named 'Bruce' was named after Russell.
According to the diary, Russell liked to read Batman comics during that time...
Ugh, this is the worst Batman has ever been hacked!
Russell put down the diary, still a little dazed in his mind, because his family has a mine, even if it is an adopted child, he also has part of the inheritance rights. Partially, because Mr. McCormack has an engineer son who left home ten years ago for the big city.
Russell's vague memory was partially recalled. If I remember correctly, the hero of the plot is the engineer who has been away from home for ten years, that mustache.
The fleeting memory was fleeting, and Russell was afraid of forgetting, so he immediately wrote the scattered fragments in his diary, writing as many as he had. Although I don't know what the world mission is yet, but I can't get around the spider, because it is originally a monster movie with a spider theme.
The cause of the story, that is, the reason for the collective mutation of the spiders, came from an unknown chemical substance on a transport vehicle.
Russell wrote down the word 'Jinkela' in his diary. Considering that the spiders grow like crazy after taking hormones, there is no problem in naming it Jinkela.
Yes, it’s the gold-colored one that was scrambled by Africa and Neon!
Jinkela! Raising spiders! cave! shopping center!
Russell wrote down a few key words, relying on these piecemeal pieces of memory in his mind, trying to sort out a complete plot.
It's a pity that he skipped and watched this movie at the beginning, mainly to watch the big-breasted girl Ashley.
It's not because I just like this actor, but because I covet her beauty... Bah, to put it the other way around, it's not because I covet her beauty, but because I just like this actor!
It is really difficult for him to sort out the complete plot now, but a few keywords are enough.
In monster-themed movies, the finale is either that the monster kills the human, or the human kills the monster. The ending of the eight-legged monster was that the spider was killed by detonating the mine. Russell believed that his world mission should also be to destroy the spider, otherwise, it would be to protect someone from the spider attack.
"Russell, your dinner is in the kitchen, remember to brush the plates."
"Okay, Aunt Gladys, I'll come right after I take a shower."
Russell closed his diary, and decided to go to the mine tomorrow, and also to the spider breeder, as well as the shopping mall. Of course, Ashley's line can't be broken. The world mission is likely to be triggered by the hero and heroine. The hero has not returned yet, and the female sheriff is most likely.
Russell pushed open the closet, wanting to get a clean change of clothes, but found an M9 pistol in the closet. In the world of League of Assassins, he thought about the M9 obtained from the item card and locked it in the bedside table.
When Russell finished the shower and went downstairs, Fadou was already sound asleep in the bed, and Gladys was sitting in the living room, reading the newspaper and listening to the radio at the same time.
Russell was sitting across from Gladys with dinner, and the radio was full of fabricated gossip, mixed with foul language and black slang, and the announcer said what he thought, without any logic at all.
Russell kindly said: "Aunt Gladys, your age is not suitable for listening to these. Believe me, you should listen to some classical music, which can cultivate your sentiment and keep your mind young."
Gladys put down the newspaper and squinted at Russell: "Stinky boy, do you have any opinion on my age?"
"Well, my fault!" Russell shrugged: "I just think...he's talking nonsense, don't you think so?"
"No, you haven't experienced society, and there are many things you don't understand. The announcer seems crazy, but he satirizes reality. I think he knows a lot of inside information."
Russell: "..."
as long as you are happy!
