"If I had been patient and patient, she wouldn't have been drowned alive because she was looking for me..." Adam forced himself to laugh, "So, I am half the reason for becoming an orphan."
Lin En did not expect that a casual chat would reveal such a sad past: "You did nothing wrong in this matter, so you don't have to feel guilty. Now try to live a good life, and your parents will be happy for you in heaven."
"Thank you." Adam thanked him.
"It's nothing." Lin En's heart was touched again by the people in the carriage.
Adam is only seventeen years old, but he has been living with guilt for who knows how many years.
And those who should be ashamed the most, the factory, the judge, and the stepfather who should bear the responsibility, are probably all still alive and well.
Look at it this way.
Reiner's choice to come to the imperial capital of Lazerin to change the world was a very wise decision.
The problems that fall on the people at the bottom cannot be subversively changed by doing something drastic elsewhere.
Only by solving the problem at its root in Lezein can we bring hope to more people.
The train is moving.
As Lynn and Adam talked, two hours were about to pass, and the train was about to make its last stop before arriving in Lezein.
"...My advice may be a bit too taken for granted, but I still hope that you can listen to it. If you have the ability, when you encounter a suitable opportunity, do as I say and learn." Lin En did not.
Sora helps Adam, he can only make Adam recognize this accelerating world and make up for what he has lost.
"Is knowledge really that important..." Adam asked.
"Of course, with knowledge, you can at least have a stable job and plan your life. Living confusedly may not be a bad thing, but living clearly is more worthy of your try."
"But can people like me learn knowledge..." Adam asked again.
Linn paused and said: "Yes, it's not easy, but it can be done."
"Okay... thank you... I will also go to Lezein this time. I will try to find a job in Lezein. While working, I will try to find ways to read and so on." I have never been given any friendly advice, only by society.
Adam, who had been tortured frequently, finally had some hope for the future.
In the future, it seems that there will not only be endless work to earn money, eat and sleep.
Look up.
There is a rope ladder hanging down from a height that does not reach the top.
Where does that lead?
How to hold on to the rope ladder? And how to ensure that it doesn’t fall down midway?
have no idea.
But the second path in life is already in front of me.
"Come on." Linn blessed Adam and decided to secretly put some money into Adam's pocket when he got off the bus.
This was the greatest help he could give to this boy he met by chance.
"Thanks--"
"Boom! Boom!"
Suddenly, a deafening knock sounded, interrupting Adam's thanks to Lynn.
Everyone who was sleeping or drowsy in the carriage was startled by the sound and woke up instantly.
"Don't fucking sleep! Listen to me! We won't kill everyone! But each of you must hand over half of your belongings!" Four or five tall and strong men poured into the front and rear sections of the carriage.
Some of the Han men were holding machetes, and some were holding pistols. They all glanced at the passengers in the carriage fiercely, "If you are dishonest and are found out by us, then if you want to keep the money and your lives, you have to answer to me."
this!"
"Oh my god! Robber!"
"It's over, it's over...why are there really robbers..."
"Why don't you come earlier and come later? I just got on the train and got off at the next stop."
The carriage suddenly became chaotic, with some people hiding money in a hurry and some trying to escape from the carriage.
"Quiet the hell! Anyone who dares to make a sound again will be shot!" the strong man in the lead shouted sternly, pointing his gun in all directions.
Under the threat of other gangsters, the order in the carriage was barely under control.
Linn looked at each other when Reiner woke up, took out three coins from his pocket, and was ready to deal with it.
"How could these robbers bring machetes and guns?" Capa clenched his fists and whispered.
Everyone has to be checked when boarding the train.
Weapons are not allowed to be brought in unless you have special documents or have reported them.
It was also because of this that Linn left his gun in the apartment and thought of going to Lezein to get another one.
These people were able to bring in so many conspicuous machetes and pistols. Either they had some unexpected means, or they bribed the inspection personnel.
If it's the latter, it's really hard to guard against.
Even the train staff turned to the robbers. How could ordinary passengers successfully resist?
Here, after the experienced robbers took control of the situation, they immediately started searching from the front.
"Take out all the money!" The robber leader put his gun on the head of the passenger sitting in the front.
"You, didn't you say just give me half..." The passenger who was pointed at the gun had never seen such a scene before, and he stuttered in fright on the spot.
"Of course! But you have to take out all the money first! I need to make sure you really give half of it!" the robber leader said, "Hurry up! I only give you ten seconds! As for the rest! Hurry up and get ready.
When you are here, it’s not ten seconds! Ten! Nine!”
"I, I..." The passenger hurriedly opened his clothes, took out a wallet from his inner pocket, and handed it to the robber leader tremblingly, "They are all here. Don't kill me, be careful.
, be careful of fire..."
The robber leader took the money and glanced at his men, who immediately came forward to search the man, and carefully searched the gaps in the seats and the suitcase: "Boss Xin, no!"
"Very good!" Boss Xin, the leader of the robbers, looked through his wallet with satisfaction, took out the only twenty silver coins in it in front of everyone, and stuffed ten silver coins back in, "I will do what I say! Just do it!"
Take half! As long as you are like him, I guarantee that no one will die here today! I also want to advise you not to use any tricks! I have seen a lot! Don’t play any tricks for a little money. In the end
I even lost my life! Next one!"
"It's all here." The second passenger had already prepared his wallet while Boss Xin was speaking publicly.
"search."
"yes."
The passengers handed it over, but Boss Xin arranged for his men to search it after taking the wallet.
"Boss Xin, this guy stuffed a one-gold bill under the seat cushion!" The strong man in charge of the search quickly found the money from under the seat cushion where the passenger was sitting.
"No wonder there are only five silver coins in the wallet!" Boss Xin stuffed the five silver coins into his pocket and threw the wallet on the ground. "Very good! Very good! Someone is so eager to set a negative example! Then give it
See what happens to others who deceive us!"
"No, no, no... this money, this money is not mine..." The passenger who was held up by two strong men panicked and defended, "I am very poor, I cannot have a gold note, you must
Believe me……"
"It's too late! I chopped off his left hand!"
"yes!"
This group of robbers had obviously experienced countless such scenes, and they acted very neatly. They held the passenger down and stabbed him on the wrist.
"Ah!" The controlled passenger looked at his broken arm that was bleeding profusely and his left hand that fell to the ground, and cried out in collapse.
Apart from the screams, there was no sound in the carriage.
In the afternoon, they were shouting in the carriage. When they met the robbers, the passenger who all rushed up and beat him up was even more pale. He kept wiping the cold sweat from his forehead and did not dare to make any sound.
After the passenger with the amputated hand was dragged to the connecting position of the carriage, Boss Xin loudly warned again: "This is the first one! I also hope it is the last one! Otherwise, I will have no patience and just chop off the hand!"
"Brother, all my money is here." The third passenger was so frightened that he handed it over to Boss Xin without waiting for him to ask for it.
"Search." Boss Xin took the money and ordered his men to search him.
This time the passengers were calm and did not hide any money.
He returned half of the money in front of other people.
When he arrived at the fourth passenger, he took the wallet but did not arrange a body search. When he arrived at the fifth and sixth passengers, he still did not search him.
The seventh passenger thought that the robbers had let down their guard, and in order to preserve their hard-earned money as much as possible, they mustered up the courage to hide part of their money in their waistband.
However, when Boss Xin faced him, he suddenly changed his words: "Search him!"
This group of robbers had done many similar things and knew the tricks of the passengers very well.
The front part hidden in the waist of the seventh passenger was found within a few seconds.
"Okay, do you think I won't search? Do you think you can hide the money if I don't search?" Boss Xin didn't listen to the passenger's explanation, and didn't talk nonsense to the passenger. He asked someone to drag him aside and use a rope.
Forcibly strangled to death.
The carriage became even more silent.
Everyone just wanted to make a living, how could they have thought of boarding such a cruel train.
Lin En, who was sitting in the middle seat, had a sullen face, feeling that this group of robbers was not simple.
They have rich experience and choose to search sometimes and not search sometimes, just to make the passengers confused about the rules. In order to avoid being found out unluckily, they can only hand over all the money obediently.
In this way, the robbers can avoid searching everyone and wasting a lot of time.
At the same time, they are also very likely to collude with the staff on the train. Otherwise, if there was such a big noise here, the staff on the train should have stopped it long ago.
Even if they failed to stop it once or twice, the railway should have taken precautions and would not have allowed these robbers to run rampant for so long.
Therefore, Linn does not feel that she is unlucky.
This scene should be experienced by many passengers. As long as you take a bus, you may encounter this group of robbers.
Now, I have to find a way to solve this sudden change, otherwise I and Reiner will have to hand over at least five thousand gold in vain.
Especially when a robber sees so much money, he may change his mind and choose to eat it all.
But how do you use extraordinary power in front of so many ordinary people?
How can you avoid causing any trouble and affecting your trip to the Imperial Capital after using your extraordinary power?
