Volume 1 We... Is it just Chapter 51 The Tragedy of the Times
The short-sleeved man picked up the little girl at once, while the long-sleeved man picked up the black bread and water on the ground, and the two were ready to leave.
But Lin Zhengtian couldn't stand it anymore, and stretched out his hand to stop the two: "You can take the things away, and the children can stay." ”
The two of them glanced at Lin Zhengtian strangely, didn't you help us catch people just now, and now they turned their faces so suddenly.
The long-sleeved man lowered his face and said viciously, "Brother, what do you mean by this?" ”
Lin Zhengtian just said coldly: "Leave the child behind." ”
"Hey, you're still energizing, aren't you?" The short-sleeved man suddenly looked dissatisfied.
Lin Zhengtian shook his head and didn't speak again, but kicked the short-sleeved man away, and then caught the little girl with one hand.
Seeing the situation, the long-sleeved man immediately swung his fist, but Lin Zhengtian reached out and held his fist, and then twisted it.
"Ahh The long-sleeved man knelt on the ground with a scream, and the things in his arms were scattered on the ground.
Now Lin Zhengtian's strength can properly crush ordinary people even if he doesn't use holy light.
He put down the little girl, then kicked the long-sleeved man again, and said coldly: "Get out!" ”
Its powerful murderous aura immediately frightened the two of them pale, and then covered their chests and fled in a panic.
When Lin Zhengtian saw that the matter was over, he continued to wander on the road, ignoring the little girl's puzzled expression.
And when the little girl saw that she was saved, she didn't care about this strange person, picked up the black bread and water that were already dirty on the ground, and ran away.
She didn't notice that Lin Zhengtian was secretly following her.
Even though she was panting and her body was at her limit, she still kept running, all the way to the slum, to a small dilapidated house, and pushed the door in.
A weak voice suddenly sounded: "Sister Hima, is it you?" ”
After closing the door, Jima finally breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and walked to the side of the bed with the things in her arms in her arms, regardless of her tired body.
It can be seen from her perspective.
At this time, a little boy about 5 years old was lying on the bed.
The little boy had a pale face and a thin body due to a chronic lack of nutrients, as well as dry lips, and apparently had not been watered for a long time.
Due to the pollution of the factory for many years, the water source of the river has been completely polluted, and only the clean water transported from the well or from other places can be drunk, so the clean water has also become a precious resource.
"Well, Klin, it's my sister who is back, and you see what good things my sister brought you." After taking a few deep breaths, the little girl held back her tears and the pain on her face, and took out black bread and water with a smile on her face.
When Kling saw something, his eyes lit up suddenly, revealing a light of hope, but after a while, he showed a sad look: "Sister Jima..."
He noticed the bright red palm prints on Sister Jima's face, as well as the mud on her body.
She must have suffered a lot, and she might even have been caught and beaten.
Kling said something very much, but at a young age, he didn't know how to express his concern and distress, so he could only reach out and touch his sister's face, silently shedding tears.
"Clin, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying, is it that my sister is late, are you too hungry, is my sister not good, and she is running too slowly. Jima was in a hurry, took out the black bread, and soaked it in the water.
Because this kind of black bread is very hard, if you don't soak it in water until it becomes soft, you may gnaw your teeth if you eat it directly.
"Woo... Sister Hima, when will Mom and Dad come back..."The more Kling cried, the more sad he became.
When Jima heard this, her eyes suddenly dimmed.
Both of their parents work in coal mines outside the city, and one person usually comes back every few days to bring them something to eat and leave some money for them to buy their own food.
In the past, they wouldn't come back for more than a week, but now they haven't seen their parents for more than two weeks, and they haven't even asked someone to come back with a message.
It is likely that something has happened, but for the sake of her brother, she still comforts herself every day, and her parents may come back tomorrow with a lot of food.
But now that the family has eaten all the food and the money has run out, and seeing that her brother is getting weaker and weaker, she really can't help but want to steal a little bread and water.
I didn't expect to be almost caught.
She couldn't help but shudder at the thought of the consequences of being caught.
Those who are caught at the police station, if someone goes to redeem it, it will be fine, and at most they will suffer a little.
But if there is no one to redeem it, the whole life will be over.
At that time, he is likely to be sold to a black factory, working 18 hours a day, not to mention, and may face bullying from those people at any time.
Or sell it to those clubs, and the good-looking ones may be cultivated and live for a few more years.
The unsightly ones were pulled out directly to pick up customers, and finally died of illness in bed.
As far as she knew, this is how the big sister next door died.
Her whole body was rotten and smelly, and she was thrown in the slum like garbage, and if she hadn't been reminded by others, she wouldn't have believed that the person was the big sister next door before.
cried to the end, and finally the two of them were really hungry, and the black bread finally soaked softly, and the two began to eat slowly.
Even if it was such bitter black bread, the two siblings ate it with relish, and even a little bread crumb fell on the ground, and they picked it up and ate it.
And Lin Zhengtian, who was outside the door, saw such a situation and felt very blocked in his heart.
Children of their age should still be at the age of coquettishness in their parents' arms.
But they now have to endure pain that they shouldn't have tolerate.
This is the tragedy and pain of this time.
After a long time, Lin Zhengtian still left, and he didn't lend a hand.
It's not that he doesn't have compassion, it's not that he doesn't want to help.
Rather, it is an inevitable process that the progress of the times will go through.
Humans start by exploiting animals, then exploiting themselves, and finally by machines.
The progress of every era is accompanied by bloodshed and sacrifice.
If the times don't change, even if he helps one now, there will be thousands of children like Hima and Klin in the future.
To change the times, it requires the joint efforts of the vast majority of people and the sacrifice of generation after generation in order to move towards a better future.
This is far from something that he can change alone.
With heavy steps, Lin Zhengtian began to continue to wander the slums.
He saw someone wailing in pain on the bed, but no one paid attention to it.
He saw people standing motionless on the side of the road, and the passers-by completely ignored him, and eventually starved to death on the side of the road.
He saw that someone could not bear the pain and committed suicide, but the corpse was eaten by hungry wild dogs.
He saw people robbing, people stealing, people raping, people taking drugs.
I watched too much, and I became numb, and I would stop it from the beginning, but then I was indifferent.
He felt his hot heart grow cold.
There is no longer the enthusiasm that I had at the beginning, and the enthusiasm to step on the injustice of the world.
Finally he spun around, and before he knew it, he was back in front of the two children's house.
