Nine hours later, a metal train full of "goods" stopped outside Kyoto, in the station that belonged to Danbo Industries.
After the carriage was pulled open, the stench of feces gushed out from it. Bright flashlights shone in, illuminating the haggard faces with disheveled hair and dirty faces.
They gathered together. Some were male, some were female, some were old, and some were young.
Their faces were bloodless, some were pale, some were sallow, and none of them were healthy. Some people shrank back uneasily, some took the lead nervously, and some young girls bit their lips, tried to wipe their faces clean, puffed out their chests, and quietly pulled down their necklines, trying hard to show their value.
There were also people whose eyes were filled with hatred and anger, gritting their teeth.
Most of them had no strength left.
They just lay on the ground numbly, panting in a daze.
Without exception, they were all mixed-race.
In the silence, Lin Shijiu looked at those gazes, wanting to say something but hesitating. But soon, he retracted his gaze and turned to leave.
When he got out of the car, he said to the person there, "Please count the number of people, Ueno-kun. Wash them clean and check them. Be quick and finish before the next batch comes."
The burly man with sharp teeth nodded and didn't say much nonsense. He raised his hand and put on the hood of his raincoat. He waved his hand behind him, and a dozen people immediately rushed in with short sticks and began to "unload" the goods violently and efficiently.
The whistles were sharp.
From time to time, there were rough urges and angry curses.
The mixed-race people on the truck were chased down one by one. Regardless of whether they cooperated or resisted, someone immediately stripped them of their clothes. Regardless of gender, age, or age, they directly tied plastic wristbands with printed codes on their wrists, locked them, and stuffed a small piece of soap into them.
Then, outside the door, someone holding a faucet turned on the spout, and the cold water violently washed everyone's body.
There were sharp exclamations, impatient urges, and rough roars and urges.
After washing up, the people were pushed into a temporary disinfection corridor. After passing through the suffocating white fog, they were stuffed with a set of dried uniforms. Immediately, they were sent to the temporary settlement by the carts.
No one explained, and no one came out to comfort them.
There was no time to waste. There were more people waiting behind.
I'm afraid that the people who came to this place … wouldn't believe the lies of the 'rescuer' either.
Most of the mixed breeds would only think that they were being sold again as cheap tools, disposable consumables, and sent to a crueler place.
When they couldn't resist, they could only numbly pray that the darkness waiting for them in front of them wouldn't be too dark.
But he did not dare to imagine that there would be light.
"The cars from Kyushu have already arrived?"
The smoking homeless man scratched his head and took out a can of beer from his coat pocket. He raised his head and gulped it down. Wiping his mouth, he joked, "So fast … Don't people from Yingzhou like to dawdle? Why are they so fast this time? Dragon Head's words are indeed effective. "
The cabin in the woods glanced at him and ignored him.
That's the third batch tonight.
There was more to come.
Sharp curses came from afar.
"You will die a horrible death! You will all die a horrible death! "
In the stinking car, the old man holding the dying child screamed and struggled, but he couldn't resist the rough pull of the Extreme Dao and was dragged out.
After the child was taken away by the medical guards, he was also stuffed into the washing line. He wailed and cried, but his cries were drowned out by the sound of running water.
It was unclear.
"Look, they don't believe you."
Lawrence tilted his head and lit a cigarette. "Besides, they might not be grateful to you for all you've done."
"Could it be that my teacher did all this so that they could line up and walk up to him one by one to thank him?"
The cabin in the woods was amused and shook his head indifferently. "Come on, he doesn't care."
"Sounds so noble and pure. It makes me, Green Sun, ashamed." Lawrence shrugged.
"Since you know you're Green Sun, don't show up in public so high-profile, okay?" The cabin in the woods indifferently moved a step to the side, then raised his collar, revealing the symbol of Inspector Danbo. "Mr. Lawrence, what are you doing here?"
"Can't I take a look?"
Lawrence looked at him innocently. "I used to have a discerning eye. I could tell at a glance that your teacher was not an ordinary person. We still have a relationship. Don't be so cold.
Besides, the mixed hero White Paper Man is a member of our Green Sun … You can't just wipe your mouth and leave after freeloading, right? "
Once people started to be shameless, they would be invincible in the world.
Especially an organization like Green Sun, which could always surprise people in unexpected places.
For example … the great hero 'White Paper Man' who had recently risen to fame in the border area, a good example of Green Sun, the light of the righteous path appointed by the great commander.
Undercover in the Astronomy Association, defeating the Luming Hall, assassinating Minister Yusheng, saving Danbo and leaving, and so on. There were countless rumors.
For a time, it attracted the hot blood of many men and the love of many girls.
After being freeloaded by the Astronomy Association, Green Sun began to freeload the Astronomy Association.
You said that Huai Shi was a spy. I said that White Paper Man was our spy. He was a chess piece that the great commander painstakingly buried in order to save innocent mixed race compatriots. You didn't expect it, did you?
If you don't believe it, you can ask Huai Shi!
This brand-new publicity strategy from the inside out revealed a smell that Huai Shi was familiar with. It really made him speechless and unable to refute it.
He wanted to refute your motherf * cking bullshit, but Danbo and Green Sun really did have that kind of illicit relationship in private. For the sake of a long-term friendship, it was even more difficult to separate them too much.
He could only pinch his nose and acquiesce.
Over time, even the people of Green Sun started to believe that their family had recently gained a big shot who was insufferably awe-inspiring in Danbo. He was truly powerful beyond compare.
"… So, let's talk about it."
The cabin in the woods rubbed his eyebrows. "I'll say it in advance. I'm just a tool and don't have the ability to make decisions …"
"I know, I know." Lawrence nodded knowingly. "It's all the teacher's task, right? If there's a problem, you'll blame it on others. You and your teacher have really learned from each other … Don't worry, it's not trouble. I'm here to do a good deed and help Danbo solve its problems."
Lin Shijiu looked back at him, full of doubts. "Even Green Sun is starting to do good deeds. What's wrong with this world?"
"Even the leader of the Six He Society wants to abandon the dark and join the light, let alone Green Sun, right?"
Lawrence no longer entangled on this point and said straightforwardly, "Indeed, I need to congratulate you first. Danbo has completed the crucial second step. After the next hybrid statistics and birthplace are completed, it will become the holy temple in the hearts of all the beastmen … But the key is these people."
He raised his finger and drew a circle around the stinking train in front of him. "What are you going to do with these people?"
"Danbo is free to arrange them." Lin Shijiu replied coldly. "You should ask Yuan Yuan about the relevant planning."
"Ah, I understand. Danbo needs manpower. All kinds of things have to be done. It lacks manpower and manpower. As long as the hybrids want to live a stable life, they want to be able to find a home there. It's really a good thing."
Lawrence smoked and suddenly asked, "But what about those who don't want to live a stable life? What are you going to do? "
The cabin in the woods did not answer him.
And Lawrence had already stepped forward. He stood in front of the stinking carriage and looked inside.
He did not dislike the filth in it.
Instead, he took a deep breath of the stench and exhaled a dim smoke.
He sighed softly.
"Look, Mr. Lin. The feces, the blood, the phlegm, the stench, the enclosed space, the endless fear and waiting. This is what they have experienced along the way," he said sympathetically. "How pitiful."
The cabin in the woods replied coldly, "We have done what we can."
"I know, I understand, I understand." Lawrence turned his head and smiled, but it was exceptionally mocking. "Do you know? Even in such an environment, for many people, this was already heaven.
Compared to the mines, devil's dens, and poison kilns they used to live in, it's like a villa by the sea. It's spring and flowers bloom. It's unimaginably beautiful — "
As if recalling the past, the tramp's eyes lit up with a strange fire. "For many people who are even more unfortunate … this world is like hell."
"You can't save them, Mr. Lin. You, your teacher, the ivory tower behind your teacher, even the former utopia and the Astronomy Society are the same."
He said firmly, "They have long been destroyed by misfortune, pain, and despair. They have been destroyed by everything they have experienced.
Family, love, hope. After everything they relied on for a living was taken away, they were injected with malice and grew up in a dark place like hell.
A stable life and a beautiful future can't heal them. Their hearts have long been filled with hatred and anger. Your Danbo is not their heaven, nor is it the place they want. "
"They are your burden." Lawrence told him, "As long as they have the chance, they will take revenge. As long as they are still alive, they will become hidden dangers and poisonous seedlings.
No matter how many times you try to save them, they won't be used again. "
The cabin in the forest lowered his head indifferently and lit the cigarette at the corner of his mouth. "Danbo has its own management system. You don't have to worry about it."
"The system can't solve all problems."
Lawrence said, "There are more suitable places for them in this world."
He glanced into the distance.
In the deep night, there was nothing.
He was referring to a more distant and ethereal place — the bottom of the sealed border, Canaan.
The place where the abandoned gathered together to keep warm.
"I want to take them away," Lawrence said.
The cabin in the forest did not say anything.
He just smoked.
He raised his head silently and stared at the sky above his head.
But there were no stars in the sky, only dark clouds.
He suddenly thought, if the teacher was here, how would he answer?
But then, he suddenly did not want to continue thinking.
Because he already knew the answer.
That guy would definitely shake his head indifferently, right? A cold rejection, a mocking retort, and mercilessly cut off Lawrence's thoughts, silently putting all the burden on himself.
Regardless of what kind of disaster a moment of kindness would bury in the future, he would never allow anyone with a future to walk into hell and go to that kind of place.
Fortunately.
Fortunately, he was different from the teacher.
The cabin in the forest shook his head and laughed self-deprecatingly.
No matter how brilliant the teacher was, it was inevitable that there would be scum students, right?
The world was like this.
It was really sad.
He lowered his head and stopped looking at the sky. He finished smoking in silence. After stepping on the cigarette and putting it out, he let out a long breath and talked to himself.
"Danbo is not a prison," the cabin in the forest said. "This is a place where you can come and go freely."
After saying that, he no longer paid any attention to Lawrence.
He turned and left.
.
Outside the station, in the back of the car, the girl, who was a little bored from the long wait, was playing games with her head down when she heard the sound of the door opening.
"Back so soon?" She looked up curiously. "I thought you would be busy until late."
"I'm a little tired. I want to rest."
"Do you want to go back? I can drive. "
"No need."
The tired man rubbed his face and lowered his head. "Just a little … sleep for a while."
"Then sleep, 'Mountain-kun'."
The girl reached out, rubbed his hair, and told him, "It doesn't matter how long you sleep. I will be with you."
She smiled, and her eyes were as bright as stars.
A gentle hug.
The cabin in the forest closed his eyes.
