Chapter 355
When Homura Akemi first saw this pink-haired girl, she was very interested in her.
She had been sickly since childhood and had been staying in the ward. She saw the most middle-aged and elderly people and rarely saw children, let alone people of the same age.
Although there are many children in the outpatient clinic, if it weren’t for the dispute with her father two days ago, she would not have left the ward and gone to the outpatient clinic.
This is because she is withdrawn and has low self-esteem, and also because she doesn’t want to cause trouble for the medical staff.
In her current situation, every meal comes from the charity of others, so how can she dare to run around?
What if the nurse doesn’t find me when she looks for me? Will she be angry? And ignore me?
Ordinary people don’t have to worry about too many things, but for someone like her whose lifeline is held in the hands of others, she must consider
As a child from the countryside, she was already very self-abased, and in the Japanese cultural atmosphere, she dared not cause any trouble to others.
In addition, she has another eager expectation that she can’t even express herself.
What if one day, my father finds a way to pay off his debts and wants to leave, but can’t see me?
Although this idea is ridiculously naive, if her father really had this kind of love, he would not have left her here for so long without visiting her.
But it is natural for cubs to rely on their parents, and even humans are no exception.
No matter how you are treated, even if you know your parents’ nature, you will inevitably hope that they will change their ways one day.
This self-deception reached its peak when she met Madoka.
What attracted her most about Xiaoyuan was not her innocent and cute little round face, but her appearance of being immersed in happiness and being well protected by her parents.
At just one glance, Homura Akemi could tell that this child was not the same type of person as herself.
However, she did not feel jealous, just a little envious.
157 Especially when she saw her relaxed attitude when she was talking to her father, she was extremely envious
If my father makes enough money one day, or is lucky enough to get out of trouble, will he be able to stop being hysterical like this child’s father?
After all, even if he left me in the hospital for a few months, wouldn’t he still come to see me?
With this thought in mind, she exchanged glances with Xiao Yuan, then lowered her head in panic and finally followed her father’s steps.
At that time, she still held on to the last glimmer of hope for her father.
This hope has remained in her heart… until now
“Father——”
Under everyone’s gaze, the girl with black pigtails and a very quiet and introverted personality spoke
She turned her eyes away from the pink-haired girl who had nothing to do with her, and lowered her head to look at her thin father who was kneeling on the ground.
What an unbearable face that is!
Full of panic, fear, guilt, and hysteria
As a father, in order to solve his debts, he actually wanted to sell his daughter to a cult. This was undoubtedly a beastly act.
As a beast, he was not able to completely annihilate his three views. He knew what he was doing in his heart, so he not only did not dare to rebuke himself with confidence, but even knelt down and begged himself to agree to such an unreasonable request;
This is probably self-deception! If it was Homura Akemi who agreed to the request, and not forced by the other party, he would have the right to make his own way in the future, after all, it was his daughter’s voluntary choice;
As a member of society, he clearly knows that the people around him are right, but he still uses his power to bully others and force them to stand on his side, creating the psychological impression that everyone is an accomplice.
Deceiving others externally, (bffd) deceiving oneself internally
Many people think that children cannot see through the hypocritical tricks of adults. In fact, this is wrong. They often forget that when they were children, their five senses were actually more acute than anyone else.
Especially for children like Akemi Homura who have been living under someone else’s roof for a long time, they have a clearer perception of emotions.
She knew very well that the man in front of her was no longer her father, but a beast that had completely lost its humanity.
It’s just that he can’t admit it, so he has to use all kinds of methods to pretend that he is not a beast.
The love and redemption that I expect do not exist at all.
Do you want to expose him?
Even with Akemi Homura’s clumsy eloquence, she can easily expose the other party’s beastly face in front of everyone.
But is that enough?
After driving the other party away, I am still alone and still have to trouble others. I have to suck everyone’s blood to survive.
Moreover, if Akemi Homura remembered correctly, when she was diagnosed with the disease and her mother was still alive, the man in front of her did make a promise as a father – saying that he would let her live no matter what.
She believed that at that time, her father was still sincere.
Although this sincerity has long since dissipated under the distortion of time, at least it once existed.
And now, she can also feel the sincerity of the medical staff.
So she also understood that if she continued like this and became a burden to others… no matter how kind a nurse she was now, she would eventually end up on the same path as her father.
Because she herself is a burden, she only consumes the true heart of others
She knew that if she agreed to her father’s request, she would most likely fall into an irretrievable situation.
However, even if I reject the other party’s request, I will be doomed.
So, father, if this is your wish——
“If you join the church, you can pay off the hospital debt and don’t have to hide everywhere?”
The girl asked in a very cold voice
“……”
Hearing this, the man was slightly stunned, his eyes widened instantly, and then he showed an ecstatic expression
“Yes, that’s right! It’s like this! As long as you agree, our family will have money! Then I will buy you delicious food!”
Even now, he still thought that Homura Akemi knew nothing and treated her like a child.
The perceptive people noticed that the two things that Akemi Homura mentioned were just to pay off her debts… She didn’t even mention or ask about her future.
This is the characteristic of a death-minded
“Xiao Yan, wait! Calm down and don’t believe this man’s lies!”
Seeing the girl so unconscious, a nurse became anxious. (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
We can’t let such a young child fall into the clutches of a cult.
However, at this moment, Akemi Homura’s words have given the cult members enough confidence.
“You bastards, what are you talking about! Didn’t you hear that this girl has voluntarily agreed to join our sect? This is our sect’s private matter. If you continue to talk nonsense, do you believe we will call the police?!”
A few noisy people used their strong bodies to separate the crowd
Familiar with the law, they did not take direct action, but used various methods to walk on the edge of the rules.
In this kind of conflict, ordinary citizens and medical staff are no match for them.
“No! The child hasn’t agreed yet!”
Even in the face of such threats, some people still argue
“Homura, don’t be stupid! Don’t agree to them!”
Hearing this, several Yakuza were slightly stunned, and at the same time cast threatening eyes at Akemi Homura’s father, with recorders in their hands.
Needless to say, Homura’s father also understood that these people needed a definite proof that Homura agreed to
As long as there is this evidence, all subsequent troubles will be settled by the lawyer.
So he squatted down again, looked up at his daughter, and urged her in an urgent tone:
“Xiaoyan, were you trying to say that you wanted to join the church and become a member of the church of your own volition?”
Hearing such shameless guidance, everyone around was filled with indignation.[]
Only the girl herself looked calm, as if she hadn’t heard anything. She looked up at the blue sky outside the window.
What beautiful clouds!
“Xiaoyan, please tell me! Tell me now!”
Seeing the girl’s eyes as penetrating as glass, the man subconsciously lowered his head, not daring to look her in the eye, but his urging was still anxious and fierce.
Under the urging of the men, the concerns of the medical staff, and the surprised eyes of the Yakuza
In silence, Homura Akemi nodded slowly.
“I promise to add——”
“jingle!”
The girl was just about to open her mouth when she was interrupted by a crisp voice.
That was the clear sound of metal falling to the ground.
Homura Akemi was slightly startled and looked in the direction where the sound came from. If I remembered correctly, it was the direction of the pink-haired girl named Madoka.
“Asshole, who is it?!”
Just as the recorder was about to record the definitive evidence, it was interrupted.
The man and several cult gangsters immediately turned around viciously, and looked in the direction of the sound along with everyone else.
In that direction, a little girl with pink hair, who looked no more than twelve or thirteen years old, was staring at this side with great anger.
This kind of unintimidating gaze was directly ignored by the man.
The black-haired, black-eyed young man standing next to the girl was also subconsciously ignored by them.
At this moment, all of their eyes were focused on a golden ring that was bouncing and rolling on the ground.
This should be the culprit that made the sound just now
For ordinary medical staff and the patients watching, this is a common gold ring. Judging from its size and weight, the price should not exceed one million yen.
But in the eyes of men and cult members, this ring exudes an irresistible temptation
They even forgot about Homura Akemi for a moment, and even their breathing became rapid.
As they panted extremely fast and their eyes turned red due to madness, the black-haired and black-eyed young man who had no memory of them stepped forward and stepped on the golden ring.
Isolating their burning gazes, and also shifting their burning gazes to myself
“you——”
The man and the cultist were about to say something, but Su Mo spoke first.
“The gold of the Nibelungs, possessing it brings power and wealth”
The seemingly unfounded introduction made the people in front of him completely trust it without any doubt.
“This is for you”
Su Mo spoke again, saying something that made them unbelievable.
Then, he turned his attention to the rustic girl with black braided hair.
“Give me that child”
