"The little guy is quite a good person." Yudkao took the wallet handed over by the little rascal, took out two gold marks from it, and threw them up and down.
Now Youdekao doesn't care about money and other material things at all. As long as he wants, he can use secret techniques to steal from the vault.
The glittering gold marks were tumbling in the air, and the little rascal's eyes followed the gold coins.
"Do you want it?" Yudkao said.
The little rascal nodded quickly. After all, he was just a child and didn't know how to control his desires.
"If you want, take me to the butcher Eisen's stall. But you can't tell anyone about this, understand?"
After Yudkao finished speaking, he handed the two gold marks to the little rascal.
After receiving it, the little rascal bowed to Youdekao. Generally speaking, it was not news that a thief was killed on the spot after being caught in the East District. Today, he not only gained something, but also avoided the disaster of being killed. He was really grateful for this. The two gold marks would bring fresh and delicious food to the little rascal's family. They would no longer have to eat the hard black bread for a few days.
The little rascal was about to lead the way for Youdekao, but Youdekao put his hand on the little rascal's shoulder.
He leaned over to the little rascal's ear and said something,
"In order for you to keep it a secret, I have to leave a backup plan on you. So, I'm sorry."
The little rascal turned his head, but he saw an endless universe in Yudkao's eyes. He saw the weirdness in the vast Milky Way;
It was a vast universe, but malicious gazes were coming from the void of space.
This scene only flashed through the little rascal's eyes, but he already had an instinctive obedience to Youdekao in his heart.
Because of Youdekao's invisibility, speed, and current intimidation, the little rascal no longer dared to say anything. He had already surrendered to Youdekao.
The secret technique that Youdekao used was one of the ones he acquired during the trial. It could make anyone who saw his eyes fall into a state of panic, and could even control the person being cast to some extent.
In previous trials, Youdekao survived pain that ordinary people could not endure, but he also gained a lot of mysterious knowledge and greatly improved his physical fitness.
He was about to use this knowledge to severely torture Eisen, whom he hated.
The little rascal was a little confused at this time. He only remembered that he had to lead the way, so he walked alone like a walking corpse.
After a while, the little rascal brought Yudkao to Eisen's butcher shop and stood there motionless. Yudkao snapped his fingers in the little rascal's ear to cancel the influence of the spell.
Yudekao walked around the little rascal who was standing there in a daze. Yudekao waved to the little rascal without looking back and said,
"Go back."
The little rascal ran back home, holding two gold marks tightly in his hand, as a gift to his mother.
Although the spell had been lifted, Yudkao was unaware that there would be any residual effects.
The butterfly in the center of the ocean flapped its wings, and was about to set off huge waves that would sweep across the entire city of Umr.
After returning home, the little rascal gave the two hard-earned gold marks to his mother who was washing clothes at home.
"Mom, praise me~" The little rascal was acting coquettishly to his elderly mother. He puffed out his chest and was very proud to be able to contribute to the family.
The old mother wiped it on her body, and after drying it, she hugged the little rascal and cried.
"Fool, why do you want to learn from your damn thief father? I don't want you to follow his old path and get beaten to death."
My mother’s embrace is warm and her words make sense, but I have three younger brothers and two younger sisters at home, and they are all still young.
The burden of the family cannot all fall on the old mother who washes clothes for others every day. For Xiaohuatou, as the eldest son, he must bear part of the family responsibilities.
Unfortunately, the little rascal had never been to school and did not have the money to learn a skill from a craftsman to support his family; it was completely impossible for his old mother to support him to go to school, and it was already very difficult for him to barely make ends meet.
All the little rascal can do is to become a street thug and make some money to supplement his family income through despicable means such as cheating and fraud.
Little Naughty's younger brothers and sisters are still children under five years old. They just play and cry at home every day.
One night, the little rascal who gave his food to his younger brothers and sisters woke up hungry in the middle of the night. He saw his old mother standing by the bed of his youngest brother, crying and wanting to strangle him to death in his sleep, but she couldn't do it. Seeing his mother's desperate and helpless look, the little rascal grew up a lot overnight. He didn't resent his father who died early, nor did he resent his mother who worked hard to support the family. He only resented this society with a huge gap between the rich and the poor.
Those nobles and wealthy businessmen held banquets every now and then, and each time they wasted countless food for the so-called aristocratic etiquette, while these children from the slums could not even get enough to eat.
From that night on, the little rascal got up early and went to bed late every day, and while playing with his friends, he looked for opportunities to steal some money to help with the family income.
Every day before going home, the little rascal would wait outside the bakery along the street. If he bought brown bread before the bakery closed, he would get a bag of sliced bread crusts for free, which was his younger brothers and sisters' favorite snack.
This kind of life repeated day after day, but the little rascal always believed that such days would not last long.
He always had hope and expectation for a better life, but unfortunately he met Yu Dekao, the man who changed his destiny.
——
"I've been waiting for this for a long time, Eisen."
Yudekao was talking to himself not far from Eisen's butcher shop.
It is called a butcher shop, but in fact it is more like a frozen meat warehouse.
Normally, Eisen would purchase livestock from farms, bring them here to be slaughtered, and then place them in a refrigerated area to keep them fresh.
Since Eisen's butcher shop business provides door-to-door delivery service, this advanced business model has brought him many opportunities to deal directly with nobles and wealthy businessmen. Therefore, his butcher shop is just an empty shell, with usually only a hired guy watching listlessly.
Youdekao stood at the door of the butcher's shop and observed quietly. When a customer came forward to consult and communicate, diverting the waiter's attention, he activated his invisibility secret technique and walked into the frozen meat warehouse behind the waiter.
What hit me was the stench of meat and the greasy smell of blood on the ground. Given such a working environment, it was no wonder that the guy outside the door was so listless.
Eisen placed the animal's viscera in iron buckets according to categories. On the table nearby were a few pieces of meat skin and a meat-cutting knife. Slaughtered pigs, sheep and cows were hung on hooks in the air.
All this caused Yudkau physical discomfort. The scene was even bloodier than an operation and made Yudkau feel like vomiting.
He resisted the urge to feel sick and nauseous and walked inside, his target being the freezer.
"It looks like I won't be able to eat meat for a few weeks." Yudekao said self-deprecatingly as he walked.
