Street Child
Chapter 737 Street Child
The moment the bright light came on, the small room shrouded in darkness was completely revealed to everyone, and Saiman, who had been fierce just now, suddenly became embarrassed.
He Ming casually picked up the small stool that fell at his feet, wiped it carefully with his sleeve, and handed it to Salamantini. Then he did the same thing again, and after dealing with another small stool, he handed it to Lacus Klein.
"Ah? Thank you."
Lux Klein looked at the stool that He Ming handed over in surprise. At the same time, she saw that He Ming's sleeves had turned gray.
He Ming nodded slightly and looked at the pile of debris not far away for the third time.
"Wait, wait. There's a stool here."
Fearing that He Ming might find something incredible from the messy pile of junk over there, Saiman was startled and quickly found all the stools in the room, wiped them carefully, and personally delivered them to each person.
Everyone in the recycling house exchanged glances, sat down, and then looked at He Ming together.
Now, the person has been found.
Everyone in the recycling house was also watching how He Ming would deal with this young man.
"You can sit down too."
Hearing He Ming's words, Saiman was stunned for a moment, then smiled uneasily and sat down on the ground.
"The stools are all given to you. I'll just sit on the floor."
After saying this, Saiman showed a determined look, as if he was a man waiting to be executed.
Who knew that what came next was not the verdict he had imagined, but an inquiry from Lacus Klein.
"Excuse me, is that person your friend?"
Lacus Klein's words made Saiman stunned for a moment, and he subconsciously looked at Salamantini.
During the previous conflict in the clothing store, he felt a sense of oppression from Salamantini that almost suffocated him. Because of this, when he saw Salamantini just now, Saiman subconsciously thought that He Ming and the others were here to seek revenge.
"What happened just now is over. What you need to do now is to answer Klein's questions properly."
As soon as Salamantini opened her mouth, Saiman felt as if a huge rock had been lifted off his shoulders, and he immediately felt relaxed.
Perhaps, nothing can compare to this moment?
"Yes. He is my good friend who I grew up with, my good brother Ahmed."
Saiman didn't know why Lacus Clyne asked this, but when he answered, there was a hint of sadness in his expression.
"I'm so sorry! Actually, we heard some of your conversation just now."
Lacus Klein said cautiously.
But she still underestimated Saiman.
Saiman just smiled helplessly and shook his head.
"That's not necessary. In fact, whether it's me or Ahmed, what we do is not something that can be seen in the open. Don't think that I pointed at Ahmed and said that he was not following the right path, but in fact, my petty thefts are also crooked."
"Human trafficker?"
He Ming said suddenly.
Saiman was startled, but nodded silently.
Then he looked outside the door, raised his hand and pointed to the sky, the only thing that could be seen from the open door, and said.
"I heard that recently in the sea near this city, they are going to build an elevator that seems to be able to send people into space?"
"Orbital elevator. But what does it have to do with you, or with Ahmed?"
Liam watched Saiman's expression carefully.
This was perhaps the first time that Liam took a natural person other than Luo Jule as an object of observation.
"Ah? Oh, that seems to be the name."
Saiman patted his head and continued.
"After the news spread, someone said that the construction of the rail elevator would require many workers, so they opened the application channel to everyone. At the beginning, some people did successfully apply, but perhaps because more and more people came from all directions, the application channel was suddenly closed one day."
"Then, those people hiding behind Ahmed appeared?"
The professor raised his chin and narrowed his eyes slightly.
She had almost guessed the general outline of the situation.
"Well, yes. Those people said there is an internal passage that allows people who want to find a job to join the orbital elevator construction project." Saiman shook his head.
"But in reality, it's just a lie. In the name of recruitment, living people are being sold as pigs."
"Did no one notice?"
Lacus Klein was a little bit unbelievable.
"So what if you find out?"
Saiman smiled bitterly.
"All we want is to survive. Even if we don't join the people behind Ahmed, we will starve to death sooner or later. If we go, at least there is a glimmer of hope. If we don't go, we will starve to death! If it weren't for the fact that this port city doesn't have winter, I'm afraid I would have been frozen to death like those people in the far north."
"one more time···"
Saiman bit his lip and struggled for a moment.
"After one of our operations was exposed, we were surrounded by a group of people and were almost beaten to death. Ahmed begged the leader of the other side to let him take the punishment instead of us. I don't know what Ahmed said to the leader of the other side, but in the end we were all let go."
"And when Ahmed left with the enemy leader half a year later and reappeared in front of us, he looked just like what you saw just now."
Saiman gritted his teeth.
"They have turned into scum who disregard human life and wantonly sell living humans like pigs!"
After roaring angrily, Saiman suddenly sat down on the ground dejectedly.
"Of course. I have no right to say anything about him. Because I am also a scumbag."
Everyone listened to Saiman's self-deprecating words in silence.
Even Lacus Klein frowned tightly, and looked at He Ming from time to time, with a hint of help in her eyes.
He Ming shook his head silently.
Saiman noticed this scene, but his mind was as clear as a mirror.
"Sister, that's not necessary! Put away your kindness. I'm just a scum struggling to survive. I'm not worth saving. If there's anyone else here who's worth saving, it's probably only that guy."
"Apudu."
When Saiman mentioned this name, his eyes revealed a hint of admiration and helplessness.
"Even when he was in the most difficult times and almost starved to death, he never did anything worse than scum like me and Ahmed did."
"Hey. Come to think of it, it could be because of this! Recently, Abdu's luck seems to have improved. During a scavenging trip, he found a piece of iron that fell from the sky and made a lot of money."
"Not only did it feed my brothers, but it also cured my sister Ali's illness."
"wait wait wait!"
Suddenly, Luo Qiuer stood up abruptly.
"Repeat what you just said!"
Saiman was stunned for a moment and said subconsciously.
"Not only does it make my brother..."
"No! It's the last sentence."
Liam spoke hastily, interrupting Saiman's retelling.
"One more sentence? A lump of iron falling from the sky..."
"Yes!! That's exactly what I said!"
Luo Jule and Liam exclaimed immediately.
After the former cheered, he turned around and looked at He Ming.
"He Ming, it is indeed a very lucky thing to meet you today!!"
What is the name if you have realized something.
"Did you find the person you were looking for?"
"Yes, it is!"
