The eloquent words moved many young people. Being able to stand here means that they are mentally prepared to encounter danger. The poor life and heavy family burden made these teenagers breathless. But even so, they still retain their illusions about tomorrow and their expectations for the future, so they came here.
If given the choice, no one would take the initiative to join any gang and live a life of dancing on the edge of danger.
But they have no choice, either to become a worker at the bottom of society, working hard all day long to earn a meager salary that is barely enough to support their family. Then at the right age, marry a man who is also uneducated and holds a job that is considered a "low-level industry" in the eyes of the big shots. He lives in a dark and simple shanty and spends his gloomy life amidst the trivial matters and quarrels of life. lifetime.
Or, risk your life to fight for a brilliant future. Even if they might fall down on this road and stay in place forever, at least they tried. They have tried to use their own hands to luxuriously embrace the future and ideals they want. Even if they may die in the end, at least they have embraced it.
When the time comes, they won't regret it.
Instead of wasting your whole life, it is better to light up the light of the moment!
The heavy breathing reflects the inner agitation of each teenager. They want to roar and cheer. They never thought that they were really only one step away from their dreams. They had already embraced the future and ideals in their arms.
It was not a dream, nor was it a lie, but something real, enough to make them feel that the sun was bright and the sunlight was a warm thing.
Du Lin's promise completely cut off their last hesitation. If life can be bought and sold, then sell it to him happily!
After a moment of silence, Dulin looked at Dover, "Put the gun on and go find that bastard Graf. I hope he went to Wheat Garden. But if he's not there, come back immediately." Then he pointed. He asked one of the young men who had communicated with him several times and was also stained with blood, "I remember your name is... Ellis?"
The young man named Ellis stood out from the crowd, and many people focused their attention on him. He was one of the first teenagers to join the hometown association. His father died in the Great Patriotic War. The empire issued a pension of 86 yuan, and he could also receive an allowance of four yuan every month. But he has two younger brothers and a younger sister at home, his mother is still ill, and he has a grandmother and a grandfather. The burden and pressure of life are very heavy.
Before joining the hometown association, Ellis worked as a helper in a hotel, earning only four cents an hour. He had to work eleven hours a day, but it was only calculated as six hours - there was a legal provision in the imperial law that did not Child laborers over the age of 16 cannot work more than four hours a day, and children under the age of 18 cannot work more than six hours a day.
He did not dare to resist because he knew very well that if he lost his job, his family would have no hope for life. With such a meager salary, he simply cannot afford the cruel reality of being without work for several days or more than ten days. So even if he is extremely reluctant, he must deal with everything numbly until his friends find him.
Ellis is a bit stronger than other teenagers, but a bit shorter. It may be because he started doing manual labor at a young age and lacked necessary nutrition for a long time, so he is half a head shorter than others. He stood in front of Du Lin with an excited look on his face, his heart beating like a drum, beating wildly, and even the pain of the wounds on his body was ignored by him at this moment, as if it didn't exist.
He watched Du Lin raise his hand, point at him, and open his mouth, "From today on, you will be promoted to team leader!"
His body began to tremble slightly, which meant that his family, his family, and their dark future had been completely changed. He walked up to Du Lin excitedly, held Du Lin's hand in his hands, and kissed the back of Du Lin's hand with trembling lips. He kept saying thank you and thanking Du Lin for promoting him, tears pouring out of his eyes.
No one knows what happened to him in the past seven years.
nobody.
Sometimes he felt that he might feel better if he died, at least he wouldn't have to live in despair and walk in a gray world every day. If he hadn't been worried about the future of his younger brothers and sisters, and if he hadn't been worried that his mother would collapse after losing him, he would have chosen eternal comfort.
But today, all this changed with one look and one word.
He didn't know how to thank Du Lin, how to be grateful, how to make the other person feel his heartfelt gratitude.
So he kissed the back of Dulin's hand as he would the bishop on a pilgrimage to church.
This was the most solemn etiquette he could find among the few etiquettes he knew.
"Take a few people and find Wood. Don't act recklessly. If you may be in danger, leave immediately." Dulin looked at the boy who was so excited that he cried. He felt a little sad for some reason. He patted Airlie. Si's shoulder, "You deserve this. Of all the people here, you have the most wounds on your body, so you deserve this, kid!"
Ellis nodded vigorously, wiped his tears, and bit his lip, "Don't worry, I will definitely find Wood, even if he is hiding in the sewer!"
Du Lin took out a cigarette and threw it over, lighting it for him. Ellis didn't know how to smoke, and he didn't have the money to buy cigarettes due to poverty. He only took one puff and choked and coughed. The teenagers around him laughed kindly, which also relieved some of their subtle emotions. Du Lin put away the lighter in a funny way and patted his shoulder again, "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go!"
After Dover and Ellis selected the boys they thought were good and left, there were only six boys and four girls left in the room. The boys were left to deal with emergencies, while the girls needed to clean up the place that had just been renovated and was smashed.
Du Lin arranged their work and returned to the office. He sat on the boss's chair and looked out the window, feeling a little unhappy.
According to the plan, Wood was provoked by assassinating his henchmen to make him lose his sense of proportion, and then let him come over on his own initiative. Dulin believed that Wood would not kill Graf's mother and his brother because doing so would only make others think he was weak. This view was particularly fatal for a guy like Wood. Even if he had such an idea, as long as he had calm people under him, he would be dissuaded from doing so.
Someone killed your closest brother, but you killed some women and children to vent your anger
Do you still dare to call yourself a "tycoon"
A strong desire for revenge will force him to choose another way, which is to find Du Lin, because he knows where Du Lin is.
The facts did develop as Dulin expected, but he did not consider that Graf actually ran away with the two teenagers. Needless to say, Dulin knew that he must have gone to save his mother and brother.
Dulin doesn't blame him, because it's his family, and it's still in danger. This is what a "son of man" should do. But he ruined today's plan to kill Wood with one blow. If Graf had been present at the time, Robben would have had no chance to get on the bus with his strength. Although the teenagers were ruthless, their strength was still much weaker than that of adults. . Regardless of whether Graf holds Robben or Wood, the final outcome is the same.
Looking at the faint clouds and mist floating in the sky outside the window, Du Lin shook his head expressionlessly.
