Chapter 169
Chapter 169
In the early morning of the next day, I was suddenly kicked awake.
The two leading men cursed and told me to get up and go out to work.
They hit me hard yesterday. I had a big bump on my head and felt pain.
Soon, the two men took me and the group of beggars to the city center.
I was arranged at an alley at an intersection. They asked me to beg for money here and they would come to collect it after dark.
And they set a goal for me. If I couldn't get 100 yuan today, I would have no dinner.
But I'm not that stupid. Although I'm in pain all over, I still have the ability to move. I plan to find a chance to run away later.
Otherwise, if I stay here, my ears will be cut off sooner or later, and these two people are cruel and ruthless. I don't know when I will die.
Because the places they chose were the most crowded places, there were many people on the road.
When these people saw that I was covered with injuries, they soon felt compassion and many of them threw the change in their hands into the broken bowl in front of me.
There were 10 cents, 20 cents, and 50 cents.
Before long, there were a few dollars in my bowl.
What made me curious was that the people who gave me money looked like ordinary people in ordinary clothes, while those who were dressed brightly and beautifully were rarely willing to look at me.
The eyes of these rich people were full of contempt, not to mention charity.
I was very happy to see the money in the bowl. I looked around and did not find any trace of the two men. I thought it was time for me to escape.
With the few dollars in the bowl, I could buy a ticket back home.
Although I would definitely be laughed at by the people in the village if I went back with injuries and the identity of a pauper, the current situation did not allow me to hesitate. If I went any later, I might lose my life here.
I started to act.
I stuffed the money into my pocket and ran in the opposite direction of the two men just now.
In short, I had to escape from this area first.
I ran for about ten minutes and met the beggar who stuffed me with steamed buns yesterday.
The money in the bowl in front of him was more than mine, and it looked like there were more than ten yuan.
It seems that what he said before about making hundreds of yuan a day was not a lie.
A disabled person like him really makes people sympathize more.
It was because of him yesterday that I joined this team. I almost lost my ears, and I was very angry.
But I couldn't be cruel when I saw his lame appearance.
I hesitated for a moment and walked in front of him. I wanted to ask him to go with me.
But he looked at me as if he was a fool, and then he turned his head to the side, and didn't even say a word to me.
Seeing this, I was too lazy to pay attention to him.
I wanted to save his life, but since he didn't appreciate it, forget it.
I didn't hesitate any more and continued to run away.
As I was running, suddenly a stick was swung over and hit me on the head directly.
I felt severe pain and dizziness. I touched my head and it was all blood. I stood up with all my strength. After seeing his appearance clearly, I felt desperate.
It was the man called Lao Er.
Without waiting for me to say anything, he dragged me into the alley next to him.
I was about to shout for help, but he covered my mouth tightly.
Two more men appeared next to me and they punched and kicked me.
After seeing that I stopped moving, they looked at me twitching on the ground with cigarettes in their mouths and said nonchalantly: "You deserve it. I told you to run. I'll just break this kid's legs!"
"Go back and see what the big brother says. This kind of young man will be honest after a lesson. Okay, you two should go to your position and guard it quickly to avoid any other problems!"
The two men flicked the ashes and nodded, then walked out of the alley.
Only then did I understand why the beggar ignored me just now.
He had known for a long time that there were many people watching him in this area, so he didn't dare to run.
I felt like my whole body was about to fall apart, and I was twitching in pain.
The man called Lao Er squatted down, grabbed my hair, and stared at me.
The scar on the corner of his eye was particularly clear in my eyes.
"In my eyes, everyone has one chance. Your chance has been used up. The next time you run, it will not be as simple as becoming disabled. Last time, there was a person who wanted to run like you, and he ran twice. Later, I broke his hands and feet, and pushed him out to beg with a cart, earning more. Do you want to be the next one?"
After saying that, he stood up again.
"Go back to your position, remember your goal today, if you don't get 100 yuan, not only will you not have dinner, I will also break one of your legs, go!"
I trembled all over, my hands clenched tightly, but I couldn't do it.Method.
There were too many of them, and it was unrealistic to escape.
It took me nearly an hour to get back to my original position, dragging my aching body.
But I still wanted to escape. If I didn't run, I would die sooner or later.
I looked at the pedestrians on the road and wanted to ask them for help.
So when there was no one around, I grabbed an uncle on the road and asked him to help call the police.
I told him about my situation, but he hurried away from me as if he had seen a ghost.
Later, I met several people in a row. I asked them for help one after another, but they all had the same expression. I didn't understand why.
Finally, someone told me that they said that this group of people were famous gangsters in the neighborhood, and they had many eyes and ears. Even if they called the police, they would find them on the way. By the time the police came, they would have evacuated.
Feeling the pain coming from my body, I fell into despair. Could it be that they really turned me into a disabled person who had to beg for food for the rest of my life?
At this time, I began to regret that I should not have come here. Maybe I should have honestly farmed in the village like my parents.
As expected, every choice I made was wrong.
This time, I will completely ruin my life because of this wrong choice.
Just when I was extremely desperate, several figures appeared in front of me.
"Ying Zhi, you see this child is too pitiful, let's give him some money."
I looked up.
A couple appeared in front of me.
The man was about 40 years old, wearing a dark suit, a delicate tie, and shiny leather shoes. His hair was neatly combed to one side, exuding a mature and steady temperament.
There were two people following behind them, holding things in their hands.
"Kid, how old are you?"
The man squatted down, and I saw that he had a slightly upturned mustache on his face.
"I'm 18..."
"18, older than Tianyi and Tiancheng, looks really pitiful, Ranran, give me some money."
The man stood up after saying that.
The woman next to him nodded, took out money from her bag and handed it to me.
But my attention was not on the money.
I could see that the man in front of me was not simple, he might be a powerful person in Kyoto City.
"Brother and sister, can you save me..."
I knelt down and kowtowed to them.
