A middle-aged man with a cigarette in his mouth coldly asked the group of children in front of him,"How much money did you get today? Take them out and take a look." These children were not old, and the oldest was no more than ten years old. Their faces were dirty, and there were some bruises on their bodies.
The children took out their money one after another. They were all loose notes, and the largest amount was no more than 50 yuan.
"Hmph, this little bit of money isn't even enough to fill the gaps between my teeth. I'm warning you, work harder tomorrow. If you bring back so little money, I'll teach you a lesson.”After saying those harsh words, the man turned around and left, slamming the iron door shut.
"Lin Lin, are you alright outside today?”Seeing that the man had left, a slightly older girl ran to a young boy and asked with concern.
Wang Lin sighed and said,"It's okay. You should think of a way to get more money tomorrow. Otherwise, Uncle Li will be angry again."”Wang Lin was only seven years old this year. He was the one who handed in the most money among the group of children. The total amount of money he handed in today was 200.
The reason why he could get so much money was definitely not because he was young. There were many children who were younger than Wang Lin. Then, how did Wang Lin get so much money?
This was because he was blind. He was blind, but Wang Lin was not born disabled.
"Little friend, can you help me? How do I get to this place?" A middle-aged man in his forties held a city map and asked Wang Lin gently.
Wang Lin gave the uncle a simple explanation, but the uncle still asked with a puzzled look,"Sorry, I'm still not sure. Can you come to the car and show us the way?”
It was the weekend, and Wang Lin didn't have to go to school. When he thought of the slogans in school that said to help others, he nodded.
His little brain had never thought that it was this decision to help others that sent him into the devil's den. After he got in the car, the people in the car immediately closed the door, covered his mouth with cloth, tied his wrists and ankles with ropes, and covered his eyes.
In the end, Wang Lin was sold to a gang by this group of people. This gang specialized in buying children from human traffickers and making them beg or sell flowers on the streets.
In the beginning, Wang Lin was like the other children today. He couldn't get much money back and was beaten and scolded every day.
Wang Lin had indeed thought of running away, but he realized that someone had been watching him. He had tried to ask for help from passersby, but he was immediately pulled away by the man who was watching him. The man even said confidently,"Brat, why don't you study hard and come out to wander around! Come back with me!"
Of course, he was beaten and scolded again when he returned. The most serious one was hanging him from a spinning electric fan and whipping him with a belt, beating him half to death.
After a few times, Wang Lin gave up on the idea of escaping.
The leader of the gang was called Uncle Li by the other members. One day, he heard Uncle Li on the phone.
"What is it? A pair of corneas could be sold for 500,000?”Uncle Li suddenly looked surprised." Okay, okay, okay. Wait for me. I'll bring her to you right away."”
Uncle Li glanced at the children in the room and quickly locked onto one person. He waved and said,"Wang Lin, come out."
"Uncle will take you to the hospital today.”A rare smile appeared on Uncle Li's face.
Uncle Li seems to be in a good mood. He probably won't hit me, right? Wang Lin thought to himself. There were indeed many bruises and wounds on his body. He should indeed go to the hospital.
Uncle Li drove Wang Lin to a remote small house. There, a person in a white coat was waiting. There were some things that looked like knives and scissors beside him. Wang Lin didn't know what they were at all. He only felt that they were sharper than ordinary knives.
"Come, lie on it obediently. Uncle will give you a check-up.”The man in the white coat said gently.
Wang Lin listened to the doctor's words. Perhaps it was because his gentle voice made him feel at ease. He obediently lay down on the table.
The man in the white coat picked up the syringe and sucked something that looked like water from a transparent glass bottle. Then, he injected Wang Lin with the needle. However, this injection wasn't very painful, so Wang Lin didn't struggle. After the liquid in the syringe was injected into Wang Lin's body, Wang Lin immediately felt a wave of sleepiness. He couldn't resist it at all and quickly fell asleep. Before he fainted, he saw the man in the white coat smiling at him.
This was the last scene he saw with his own eyes. When he woke up, he found that his surroundings were pitch-black and he could not see anything. Uncle Li said that there was something wrong with his eyes and that he would die if he didn't cut it off quickly. Now, he had already cured him.
After that, he lived the same life as before. He knelt on the street every day with an empty broken bowl beside him. Uncle Li did not beat him much because he could hand over money that satisfied Uncle Li every time. If there was anything different, it was that he no longer had to sell flowers because a blind man could not sell flowers alone.
Uncle Li sat in a luxurious room and laughed at a man with a crew cut and sunglasses.""Hahaha, Third Brother, let me tell you. That Wang Lin is simply a ready-made money tree.”
The man with the crew cut took a sip of wine and suggested," Old Si, since blind people are so rich, why don't you blind all those children and let them all beg on the streets? Wouldn't your income be more?"”
Uncle Li waved his hand. What if someone still wanted to buy corneas? Wouldn't it be a waste to remove the corneas in advance? One had to know that a pair of corneas cost hundreds of thousands. Besides, they could get money from picking up junk and selling flowers, even if it was a little less. However, compared to the price of a few hundred thousand, that was nothing. Anyway, I'm not losing money now.”
Another younger man in the room said in admiration,"Hahaha, fourth brother is smart. He knows how to earn more money. If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have blinded all the children under me.”
Uncle Li shook his finger and said,""You can't say that. Being blind has its benefits. At least we don't have to worry about those children escaping. So, brother, you've got some iron rice bowls, hahahaha.”
……
At night, all the children fell asleep. Perhaps it was only at this time that they felt the most at ease. At least in their dreams, they could meet their former family and friends, laugh, eat, and play games with them.
"Eh? What was this place? I can see now?" Wang Lin was extremely happy because he could see again. Moreover, he was not in the warehouse now. Instead, he was standing in a place that looked like a corridor. There were many carvings on the walls of the corridor, and the carvers were very skilled. What made Wang Lin uncomfortable was that the carvings in the corridor were all demon carvings. Coupled with the dark blue lights beside the corridor, it made him feel very uncomfortable. He always had a gloomy feeling.
"You clearly know that they are only the most basic soldiers. How much do they know about the core of the rebellion? They are just cannon fodder and tools used by Sakur to realize his ambitions. They are not the main members of the rebellion at all. Even so, do you still want to kill them all?”A little boy who looked to be about eight years old shouted at a little girl of similar age who was leaning against a pillar.
"They must die. This is also a warning to everyone in the Imperium! I think it's because I was too kind to the people in the empire in the past. I was so kind that they could be arrogant and that's why there was a rebellion. This incident was a good example for everyone.”The little girl leaned against the pillar with her arms crossed in front of her chest and said in a matter-of-fact tone.
"What is this place? Who are they?" With doubts in his mind, Wang Lin took a step forward. However, the scene changed drastically. The entire background changed from a gloomy corridor to a burning city. He was now standing on the roof of a building.
A white-haired, red-eyed girl with a pair of black wings on her back was fighting with a guy who looked like a knight.
"Although you are very powerful, you are not my opponent. Give up.”The girl who had clearly gained the upper hand in the fight said to the " knight."
The Knight shouted in an unusually determined tone,""Unless I die, I will never give up!”
What was going on? Why am I seeing these things??
Wang Lin suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head, as if his head was about to be torn apart from the middle.
My head…hurts…it's going to split…
The surrounding scene kept shattering and eventually returned to infinite darkness.
"Get up and get to work!" A familiar middle-aged man's voice rang in her ears, but she still couldn't see anything.
Was everything just a dream? Why did I have such a dream?
However, Wang Lin didn't have the time to care about his questions because he was about to go to the streets and kneel again.
