19. Pain under sin

"Hurry up and hide, otherwise they will send more people."

The idiot glanced at the three hooligans, and the current situation was really not to be thought about. He quickly pulled Xiao Bao and the young man with braided hair and rushed into a small alley on the side of the road. After turning around in the alley, he confirmed that there were no pursuers behind him, and they finally stopped.

"Hu...hu...hu...hu...hu...hu...hu...hu...hu...hu...hu"

The rapid running made the young man with braided injuries worsen. After confirming that he was finally safe for the time being, he covered his shoulders and slowly squatted down against the wall. Seeing this, Xiaobiao immediately stepped forward and tear his shoulders open and lifted them up to start treatment.

The young man with braided arms was not seriously injured and did not cut into the artery. However, he had a lot of bleeding and the wound was very long. The torn muscles looked really scary. It seemed that the injury was far more serious than he had imagined.

He gritted his teeth, and the sweat on his forehead kept rolling down. However, under the treatment of bread, his breathing finally slowly became smoother, and the pain on his face disappeared a lot.

"Thank you... Thank you. I didn't expect that this girl actually has such good abilities..."

The young man with braid raised his head and showed a gratitude on his face. Xiao Bao smiled, shook his head, and continued to help him deal with the wound.

"It's really... I'm sorry, I've caused you so much trouble. My name is Joshua Lucirid, and I'm a mechanical engineer. Is it..."

“…………………………………………You don’t need to know my name.”

“Yes…is it?”

The young man with braided hair seemed a little embarrassed in the face of the idiot's coldness. At this time, Xiaobiao finally finished treating his shoulders. In addition to being a little itchy, the wound no longer hurts. The young man with braided hair wrapped his wound that was no longer bleeding, and bowed to the idiot and thanked him.

"Well, sir. I'm really sorry to have you involved in my affairs. I advise you, if nothing is wrong, please leave this town immediately."

The idiot said silently, but the little bread was strange. She raised the sign and asked why.

"Why...ah...hehe, as for why, you should have seen it just now, right? Little girl."

The young man with braided hair, who claimed to be Joshua, stretched out his uninjured hand, gently touched the hair of the bread, and said, "The president of the Eye of Freedom Business Association, the fat man, the fat dragon Balans. As a local snake in this town, he refused anyone who resisted him, and refused anyone who disobeyed him. Perhaps, it was because I was a newcomer and had just arrived in this town for half a year and didn't understand the rules, so I offended him in many places..."

The idiot was listening with his hands on his back. In fact, he was worried that he would not be able to get the information from the president of the business association. Since this person was willing to provide it, it would be great.

Joshua clenched his fists, and looked extremely angry. He gritted his teeth and shook his head and said, "I am an inventor who knows a little about engineering. I came to this town in the hope of finding a job and giving full play to my strengths. I even made a girlfriend here, Silk Weaving... The most beautiful angel in the world. I even thought that I would stay in this town for the rest of my life..."

"But, I never expected that the fat dragon was such a vicious person."

"I was only responsible for simple sales at work in his store. But one day, my job was appreciated by the foreman, and when he agreed to join the design project, I knew what exactly our store sold."

"It's really hard to say it out. It's a kind of restraint device, with a bed, a chair, and other various props and small items. As for the purpose... Sir, if I say these props are used in the jail and are specifically used to deal with girls who refuse to obey, or are sent to prison and torture, you will understand it, right?"

The idiot nodded after thinking about it.

"At the beginning, I told myself to be patient. After all, working these days is not easy. But not long after, things became completely beyond my expectations."

"Once, I took the order to compete with a gangster leader and told them how to use those items. I told myself that I needed to be numb, so I pretended to be calm and made some dolls to tell those gangsters how to use those items. But... I didn't expect..."

At this point, Joshua's fist was clenched tightly again, and his eyes began to turn red and tears fell.

"They...they...they're actually laughing at me and put my doll aside them...they even forced me with a knife...they used some of the prisoners they caught as test subjects...and asked me to use those props with my own hands to give them..."

Joshua's voice choked for a moment, and his words stopped for a while. It was not until a long time before he continued to speak again.

"That night... I had insomnia... Simao told me that if I wanted to continue to survive here, I had to accept these things. Because these are all 'rules'. But I didn't understand why there were such rules? Why can this town tolerate such things happening?"

"I wrote to that fat man, Balans, to report, and told me what I saw and heard, hoping that he could take care of it. But... what I never expected was that my letter was not only in the sea, but also invisible. Not long after, I even received some death threats, telling me not to meddle in other people's business."

"I can't stand it... so I refused to design those cruel props again. But in this way, I was quickly fired. Because I knew too much, I even came under house arrest. I was dissatisfied and thought it was wrong, so I shouted loudly in front of the residence of Balans, calling on the people of this town to unite and fight against the evil heretics of this town. I believe that as long as we work together, we will one day sweep the filthy atmosphere and welcome the light of this town again."

The passionate young man clenched his fist and waved it in the air. His face was full of justice, his eyes were unwavering, and there was faith in it.

"In order to complete the resistance, I began to use my strengths. In addition to conducting publicity activities outside during the day, I designed in my residence at night. Because Balans has many masters under him, if you want ordinary people to fight against these masters, you must have powerful weapons. So, I worked hard to design, think and improve all the items I had seen before. Finally, I designed a murder weapon that even I felt terrifying. A mechanical knife that can judge the attack distance and attack time by itself, which can allow a person who is under martial arts, who even does not understand martial arts, to instantly obtain the assistance of mechanical technology and become a powerful warrior."

"I'm very happy that after making it myself, the effect was very significant. But at this moment, my disaster came."

Joshua's voice slowly subsided. He shook his head, sighed, and said -

"The things I incited the people finally made Balans dissatisfied. He raided my residence and beat me up, telling me not to make any sound if I don't want to die. I can tolerate this... but the worst thing is that my design drawings and the automatic mechanical knife fell into Balans' hands after that search."

"Friend... Can you imagine what it means to hold a powerful weapon in the hands of a villain? Perhaps this weapon that can judge and avoid and attack is nothing to powerful warriors, but for ordinary people and low-level warriors, it is simply a nightmare existence."

"When he was raiding my house, Barans was just interested in the mechanical knife and didn't care much. But I knew that once he understood the power contained in this weapon, he would definitely not let me go. So, I ran away immediately and hid. As expected, as I expected, less than an hour after I ran away, someone surrounded my house and began to raid the house again."

"I can't be caught by Balans. This technique is not used in the hands of the demons. But, in order to force me out, Balans even kidnapped Silk Weaver, and just yesterday, hanged her in front of everyone..."

Joshua wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and shook his head. The air around him also solidified for a moment, and the little bread lowered his head, a little sad.

"I know... that's the way Barans wanted to force me out. I endured it... I kept holding it... It's a pity that I'm not a warrior, I'm just a little engineer, a college student in the science department... I'm like a coward in the death of Silkweaver... I hate myself who can't act... But I hate that villain, Barans."

The idiot was silent when he heard it. But at this moment, he suddenly spoke and said, "What do you want."

Joshua raised his head, faced the idiot with red eyes and tears, and smiled bitterly: "I can't fight him. At least... I hope to destroy my design drawings and the weapon I made. But I am not a warrior and I don't have the ability to sneak in and destroy those things. Just now, I was even accidentally discovered and then chased, and now I'm saved by you..."

The young man smiled bitterly, but tears couldn't stop rolling from the corners of his eyes. Perhaps, he felt that it was too embarrassing to cry in front of a big man, so he kept wiping the corners of his eyes with his sleeves. But no matter how he wiped it, the tears still flowed down. No matter how he wiped it, he couldn't finish it...
