Chapter 200 Come home with us
Chapter 200 Come home with us
Those hooligans were taught a lesson, the police were hidden, and the mobile phones were picked up. I guess there will be no garbage collection today.
Le Wan shouted to the siblings:
"Since you have nowhere to go, come home with us."
Gaibai held Gegar's hand tightly and looked at her warily.
“Where is your home?
Although he liked his new friend Le Xiaodi very much, he had experienced a lot since he was a child and was very distrustful of the three people who suddenly appeared, especially because of their attire, which made it obvious that they were from different worlds.
Gai Bai looked at Brother Le and pursed his lips. He knew that Brother Le came from a good family, but he didn't expect that he was a rich young man.
Although it is impossible to tell what brand of clothes Le Xiaodi is wearing, both of them wear the most expensive brands on the commercial street. He even recognizes the logos. It is said that the price of any piece of clothing in the store is enough to cover their family's food expenses for several years.
Brother Le saw the vigilance in his eyes, raised his eyebrows, and immediately reported the address of their community. Unexpectedly, when Gai Bai heard the address, his face changed and he said angrily:
"We're not going there!"
Then he pulled Gegar up and turned to leave.
Little Brother Le cried out "Ouch!" and immediately chased after him.
Unfortunately, he was no match for Gai Bai in terms of familiarity with the terrain or ability to escape, so he quickly disappeared from the brother and sister's sight.
Little Brother Le had no choice but to walk back dejectedly.
Le Wan looked at him in confusion.
"Is there some monster near us? Why does he hate this place so much?"
Brother Le explained helplessly,
"Gaibai said that his sister Gegar was bullied a few years ago and almost died in the water. And the person who bullied her happened to be a resident of our community."
Le Wan frowned.
"What a coincidence."
She guessed randomly.
"Could it be the Watson family who could do such a terrible thing?"
Brother Le thought about it and felt that it was possible. After all, not every child was as cruel as the woman in the Watson family.
"Now that the brother and sister have run away, should we go back?" Le Wan asked him.
Brother Le shook his head.
"You guys go back first. I'll go find Gai Bai and his brother. They didn't pick up trash this morning, so they can't eat. They probably don't dare go home at noon, so they can only go pick up trash on an empty stomach. Otherwise, they won't have anything to eat at night, and their scumbag parents will teach them a lesson."
"But now they've run away, where are you going to find them?" Le Wan asked Le Xiaodi.
“Or do you know where their home is?
"I don't know where their home is." Brother Le shook his head.
"There are some hooligans guarding the commercial street now. I guess they don't dare to go there for the time being. They should pick up trash somewhere else."
After listening to the brother and sister's story, Le Wan felt a little uncomfortable. She said,
"Then we'll go with you. It'll be much easier to find if there are more people."
"That's fine." Brother Le nodded.
So the three of them followed Brother Le to another place. Brother Le introduced,
"There are a lot of tourists here, so if you come here to pick up trash, there are quite a lot of rewards. But because this place is very close to the lake, Gai Bai is afraid that his sister will be bullied by tourists again, and the tragedy that happened a few years ago will happen again, so he rarely comes here."
But if they didn't go to the commercial street now, the brother and sister would still have to come here to survive. Without thinking much, the four of them saw Gai Bai holding Gegar's hand tightly in the crowd, as if he was afraid that she would get lost, and the other hand was searching for plastic bottles in the trash can.
Judging from how nervous he was about Gegar, it was clear that the drowning incident a few years ago had caused Gaibai severe psychological trauma, which was why he was so nervous.
"Hey, Bai!" Brother Le waved at them.
Hearing his voice, Gai Bai's body suddenly tensed up, he pursed his lips, turned around, and looked at Le Wan and the other two with a gloomy expression.
"I don't think this is a coincidence, do you?"
His eyes fell on Brother Le.
"Sorry, I haven't earned enough money for today's meal, so I can't play with the rich kids."
As soon as Gai Bai finished saying this, Le Xiaodi's expression suddenly froze, with a look of helplessness and hesitation. Obviously, he did not expect Gai Bai to speak to him in such a tone and words. After all, Gai Bai had always been pretty nice to him before.
When Brother Le heard this, he frowned, but he glanced at Brother Le and said nothing.
Le Wan sighed secretly. She knew very well where the little boy's wariness came from. When a person's living environment receives more malice than kindness, he or she will show his or her thorns when faced with uncomfortable situations.
"Okay, I admit that we came to see you on purpose. We just have a question that we are particularly curious about, so we want to ask you."
Le Wan took two steps forward and pulled Le Xiaodi, who looked a little injured, behind her.
"I heard about Gegar..."
As soon as Gegar's name was mentioned, Gaibai immediately glared at Lewan like a wolf cub, as if he would pounce on her with his sharp claws and teeth if she said anything unpleasant.
Zhai Jingkai silently took a step forward and stood beside her.
"Hey, don't make that expression."
Le Wan pretended not to notice Gai Bai's aggressiveness and her expression remained relaxed.
"I'm just curious if the person who bullied her is a girl named Emma"
When Gai Bai heard the name, his pupils shrank suddenly and his face turned pale.
He growled in a low voice.
"Do you know that woman? Are you one of them?"
At that time, everyone said that his sister fell into the water accidentally and the whole incident had nothing to do with the Watson family's daughter. Even a respected pastor stood up to testify for her. However, Gai Bai did not believe this conclusion.
That day, he and his sister came here to pick up garbage. In order to improve efficiency, the two acted separately.
Although Gegar has intellectual disabilities, she has mastered some knowledge after his repeated teachings. For example, she knows that she has to pick up a large bag of plastic bottles before she can eat. If she does not pick up a large bag of plastic bottles, she will have no food to eat and will be punished.
Therefore, picking up plastic bottles is an instinct engraved in her.
Therefore, Gai Bai was still quite confident about his sister at that time, but it turned out that he had let his guard down.
Tourists in nearby scenic spots mainly go hiking, so on this day Gaibai asked Gegar to pick up bottles by the lake, while he followed the tourists up the mountain, picking up bottles along the way.
The bottle collection went smoothly that day. He soon filled a large bag. Then, using his familiarity with the nearby mountains, Gai Bai chose another route that was closer but less popular because it was steep.
Walking along the path, he could vaguely see the situation on the other side of the lake. When he carried the bag of plastic bottles down the mountain and looked down from above, he suddenly saw Gegar fighting with others. Three people even beat Gegar with branches.
Seeing this, Gai Bai was angry and anxious. He gritted his teeth and slid down from a small woods. A few minutes later, when he rushed to the lake, he saw Gegar struggling on the water and gradually sinking.
The three men who had teased and beaten Gegar had long since disappeared.
At that moment, Gai Bai's heart turned cold and his blood froze. Fortunately, someone jumped down in time and saved Gegar.
Because of this incident, Gai Bai was convinced that Emma and the other two were involved in Gegar's fall into the water.
However, when he was a child, his words were not believed by others. Instead, he was laughed at as a born bad boy. Seeing that the Watson family was rich, he deliberately wanted to blackmail the Watson family's money.
Even his parents, after receiving the check from the Watson family, ordered him to shut up or they would kick him and his siblings out of the house.
So, no matter how indignant Gai Bai was, he couldn't insist on the truth, and he couldn't even see Emma and the other two criminals being punished.
After receiving the compensation, his mother, who hadn't drunk for a few days, saw the anger on his face and gave him a rare good look.
"Accept reality. The lives of poor people are not as valuable as you think."
Of course, the little boy Gaibai did not believe in fate, otherwise he would not have known to take Gegar out to pick up garbage to support his family at such a young age. But the smart boy also deeply understood the inferiority and powerlessness of the poor, so he silently accepted such an ending.
Then he took Gegar away from the lake.
In Gai Bai's young heart, the woman named Emma was the one he hated and feared the most.
"What a coincidence, she is also one of the people I hate the most." Le Wan echoed.
"What?" Gai Bai raised his head and stared at her, trying to see if she was telling the truth.
However, Le Wan's expression seemed like she was joking. Gai Bai didn't know whether it was true or not, so he raised his voice slightly.
"Why? Did she push you into the lake too?"
Le Wan shrugged.
"She wanted to do this to me, but we didn't give her the chance. We slapped her hard and she left Wade Town dejected."
Gai Bai's eyes widened.
"How can this be?"
In his eyes, Emma was an invincible demon, but in the end, she was beaten to a pulp by Le Wan...
"What?" He didn't believe it. "Why would the Watson family allow you to do this?"
"You're right. They really don't allow it. So we're in a dilemma now. How can we escape their family's revenge? Perhaps, as a local, can you give us some relevant suggestions?"
Gai Bai didn't believe what Le Wan said. After all, who would ask for help from a poor man like him? But...
He glanced at Le Xiaodi who was standing behind Le Wan. The other party was looking at him with pitiful eyes, which softened Gai Bai's heart. After all, this silly boy was different from Emma, otherwise Gai Bai would not have risked jumping out and running away with him.
To be able to raise such a child, are the Le family and the Watson family really different? Gai Bai hesitated whether to believe it.
