19 An irresistible will
The middle-aged judge didn't take Andy out of the church himself.
After taking him out of the Starry Sanctuary, the other party sent a servant to do it as if he had thrown off his burden.
When they left, they didn't go to the main hall, but turned around to the back door.
I didn't see any familiar figures on the road.
As we moved away from the Sanctuary, it seemed that the transcendent world that was already close at hand was gradually blurred and untouchable.
Andy could only see here some elderly nuns and church helpers, doing all kinds of menial chores on the side of the road.
What they are talking about is not those high-flying things, but what to eat tonight, there are more and more thieves in the fish market, and everyone who always likes to be lazy and does not work and other parents.
The funny thing is that in this bottom world, even the servants are not willing to take Andy through the last stretch of the road.
On the way, he ordered an old nun who was washing clothes to do it for him.
"You look very sick, kid, why don't you go to the hospital?"
"You're here to get free relief food?"
The church area covers a large area, and the old nuns are a little nagging, asking a lot of questions along the way.
But she was very kind, and when they parted, she saw Andy grunting with hunger, and kindly gave him a biscuit.
This is also Andy's only food since the early hours of this morning, so far.
Leaving the church area and onto the busy street, Andy walked towards the apartment building where he had been housed.
As a result, as soon as he arrived nearby, he found that the apartment was engulfed in flames at the moment, and the red color was surging, and the billowing black smoke from the window attracted a large number of passers-by.
Andy narrowed his eyes at this.
But before he could think of anything else, there was a sudden sound of footsteps approaching beside him.
Looking sideways, Father Matthew's female assistant was hurrying towards him, as if she had something important.
However, when it came to the near future, she stopped talking again, and finally simply said: "The priest has been transferred from his original post, and he will not be able to return in a short time." β
With that, she placed the brown travel backpack she was carrying at Andy's feet, and then turned away without looking back.
It seems that he doesn't want to have anything to do with Andy anymore, and he doesn't plan to help him, a foreigner, find a new place to live.
Andy didn't say anything, just picked up the backpack that he had asked the female assistant to take care of before, unzipped it and looked at it.
There were some of his daily necessities inside, and a black suitcase was among them.
"You slept soundly."
The probe touched the box, and after feeling it, Andy was relieved.
Because it takes a lot of time to participate in the assessment, before that, he found a way to put the contents of the box to sleep - relying on a little knowledge of herbology.
Now it seems that the dosage is a bit too much......
With his mind set up on how to improve the recipe, Andy grabbed his backpack and strode to a fast-food restaurant not far away, considering filling his stomach first.
Order food and take a window seat.
Just as he was munching on a hamburger, a bearded middle-aged man wearing a cap suddenly walked out of the back kitchen, approached the back, grabbed the plate on Andy's table, and then slammed it to the ground.
"Don't try to get any food from us, you goddamn thief!"
He roared loudly, looking at Andy with a look of disgust.
"Hurry up, and get the fuck off, you're not welcome here!"
This guy came very suddenly, and what he said was very inexplicable.
After swallowing the food in his mouth, Andy said in a puzzled tone, "Are you?" β
"I'm the owner of this shop!"
The bearded man said, kicking the boy hard in the chair under him.
The ferocious force caused the metal chair legs to rub violently against the tile surface, making a piercing creaking sound!
"Hurry up and get out, what are you still rubbing?!"
β¦β¦
"This little thing, it's a bit ruthless......"
Not far from the fast food restaurant, a car is parked, and there is a young man in the driver's seat, who is using a telescope to observe the situation in the store.
So he saw that the tall bearded boss was about to kick the second kick, but he was tripped to the ground by the boy's skill!
Then, the fatal point of the bearded boss was kicked several times.
The boy who seems to be thin and weak, but his strength seems to be surprisingly great.
After a few consecutive blows, the adult man who kicked him wailed again and again, covering his crotch and screaming in pain, which made the young man's eyelids jump subconsciously.
"Do you want to arrest someone, big brother?"
The peeping young man then lowered his binoculars and turned to look at the co-pilot.
There was a middle-aged man reading a newspaper sitting there, with a handsome face, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and the whole person looked polite-
It was the mayor of the city who first followed Father Matthew to the hotel to pick up Andy!
After hearing this, the mayor sighed and said, "It's not enough, he is a minor, and this crime is nothing." β
"How many more then?"
"Of course."
The mayor nodded and said: "If he goes to a house, we will let him fight, and even if he doesn't die, he will be tired to death." β
These cold-blooded and ruthless words seemed extremely ordinary in his mouth, as if to say, the weather is really good today.
In the tone, there was no kindness and flattery to Andy at all.
"But what if, this kid endures it?"
The young man in the driver's seat was a little worried, "If I were him, I wouldn't do it, because it's easy to see it's a trap." β
"It's okay."
The mayor smiled and said, "If he doesn't do it, we'll continue to let people humiliate him and insult him until he does it." β
"And if he can really endure that, it doesn't matter."
When he said this, the elegant-looking middle-aged man put down the newspaper in his hand and said in a very ordinary tone:
"Hotels, restaurants, wet markets, welfare homes, and even the black market, as long as he is in the city, in the country, all public and private places, will be closed to him."
"He may be very powerful, but even if he doesn't think about the cancer in his body, how many days can he live without eating, drinking, or sleeping?"
"But what if he runs out of the country?"
"Aviation and railways have banned him, taxi drivers won't open their doors to him, and our army is waiting for him at the border......"
When he said this, the mayor couldn't help but sneer, "In this case, where can he run?" β
ββ¦β¦ Is this too exaggerated? β
The young man in the driver's seat smacked his tongue when he listened, "Who did that kid provoke, and he went so hard to target him?" β
"Against?"
The mayor was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed dumbly, "You, you really think too much." The old gentleman didn't really look down on this child, and he couldn't have put any effort into him. β
"And what's going on?"
"A bunch of people like me, when they smell it, are vying to be the old gentleman's dogβthough I think it's wishful thinking."
With that, the mayor looked out the window with a slight mockery at the black-haired boy who had stepped out of the door of the fast-food restaurant.
On that afternoon five days ago, he didn't even have a chance to talk to the boy, and he was complacent when he handed over a watch.
And now, five days later, he has become the master of the other party's fate, able to pinch the other party and insult the other party at will.
As long as he wants, he can even arrange a sniper and kill this child.
This exaggerated change of status is just because of a thought of the old gentleman......
"Power, that's a fascinating thing."
With such emotion, the mayor suddenly said: "The hotel where this kid stayed five days ago, you will take someone to smash it for me, the fat man in it, broke his three legs, and his wife was sold to the red light district." β
"This ......"
The young man in the driver's seat was stunned when he heard this, "But I heard that the fat man and the boy don't deal with each other, and they don't say anything bad about him?" β
"No matter how much he doesn't deal with it, he also took in the boy for three days, and he hasn't asked for room and board."
"But will the big guys pay attention to such small characters?"
"No, but what if?"
When he said this, the mayor looked serious, "I'll tell you, even if it's a dog now, as long as it has something to do with that boy, we all have to go over and kick it a few times." β
"If you don't kick, others will."
"It's too late, you can't even drink a mouthful of soup!"
These words were simply too impactful, and the young man was stunned for a moment when he heard this, opened his mouth for a moment, and only said: "Will this lead to any consequences?" β
"The consequences? The priest was transferred, and then there was a time when he was unlucky, and the old gentleman was there, what could happen to those of us who wanted to slap him off? β
"Well, I mean, if we offend that boy like this, if he regains power, won't we?"
"Boy? Regaining momentum? β
The mayor's expression was stunned when he heard this, as if he had heard some cold joke, and looked at his own brother with a very strange gaze.
"You think, an ant." At this, he hesitated, as if organizing the language, ready to explain the situation to the idiot.
"What kind of momentum can you get to overthrow an elephant?"
"We're not elephants."
"Of course, of course we're not. But if the ant will come and bite us, then the elephant, who disdains to take care of us, will not be indifferent, because it involves the face. β
Saying this, the mayor patted the other party on the shoulder, and his tone was regretful.
"It's a good thing, you know, a good thing you can't even dream of."
"It's a pity that this kind of good thing doesn't happen at all."
"Why?"
"Because that kid only has two doses left in his hand, even if we don't do anything, he won't survive the third day."
