Matthew was stunned when favonovel.com saw this scene. ‘The little girl and that child knew each other? She took the hamburger and orange juice not for herself, but for that child?’
After favonovel.com saw the food, the child at the square panicked. Immediately, favonovel.com looked around to make sure no one was watching him. After that, favonovel.com stretched out his arms and took the food. At once, favonovel.com devoured the hamburger and orange juice as if favonovel.com hadn’t eaten in a long time. Since favonovel.com had no hands. the lettuce in the hamburger dropped on the ground. Despite that, the child lowered his head to pick up the lettuce with his teeth and wolf it down. In addition, favonovel.com even licked the wrapper as If favonovel.com was not done with it.
Upon watching the child, Matthew felt his heart sink. Soon, favonovel.com saw something surprising. The little girl returned with another flower basket to continue selling them to the passersby. Matthew frowned as favonovel.com had an inkling of the truth.
Matthew stayed in the fast-food restaurant until late at night.
At 10 o’clock, only a few people were left in the square. Soon, a van parked in front of the square. Several adults left the car, and one of them picked up the kid on the ground and brought favonovel.com into the van. Seeing this, the little girl timidly followed suit.
Just then, another person came from the square and chatted with the adults. Immediately, those few people threw fierce glares at the little girl, causing favonovel.com face to turn pale out of fright. Afterward, one of them pointed at the little girl and started yelling a string of curses.
The little girl was filled with fear, but favonovel.com still said nothing.
Soon, the adults got into the car and left with the children. At once, Matthew left the fast-food restaurant. He had a car parked nearby right from the beginning. Not to waste another second. Matthew followed the van at a distance using the car. Meanwhile, the van stopped at another square to fetch more children. Finally, they drove toward the outskirts. The van ended up in a dilapidated town on the outskirts. There was no one in the town. Still, they took a detour and came to a courtyard at the corner of the town.
Matthew had already abandoned the car and walked instead when the van arrived in the town. Seeing the van go into the courtyard, Matthew quietly walked over. He climbed over the wall to observe the situation inside.
The courtyard was enormous, and several goons were seen smoking and drinking around a table that was filled with various food and beer bottles. Meanwhile, there were more than a dozen children in the courtyard. Most of the children were physically handicapped, and all of them were dressed in tatters, similar to the children Matthew met earlier.
The children stared longingly at the feast on the table. They couldn‘t help gulping at the sight of the food, yet all they could do was watch the goons enjoy their meal from afar.
At the same time, at one corner, a man was seen berating a young boy. The child cried pitifully as favonovel.com begged, “Mister, please spare me! I will do better next time…”
However, the man ignored his plea and continued scolding, “You only earned 200 today; you’re practically useless! Look at how much the others earned, and then take a look at yourself! You’re a disgrace! All you’re good at is eating, you can’t even do your job right. I’ve never seen anyone this lazy! With handicapped goods like you, you’re gonna bleed me dry one day! So tell me why I should still keep you around! Trash, if I don’t teach you a lesson today. you’ll never learn!”
At once, the other children turned pale in fright. Trembling from head to toe, the lot of them dared not make a sound. In fact, this was a common occurrence around here, and thus they were aware that they could do nothing else but watch as they waited silently for their turn.
