The middle-aged woman screamed angrily. Bill felt very uncomfortable. Originally, he had not slept for a day and a night. As rescuers, they were also happy when they could save people. When they found the corpses, they also felt very uncomfortable and had to be scolded by their families. When they first became rescuers, they were filled with hot blood. Now, this hot blood was being extinguished bit by bit. After seeing too much human nature, he could not help but feel a little lost. Was there any meaning to what they were doing?
The middle-aged woman was still cursing when the rescue boat docked. Alex stood on the sh.o.r.e with Amelia in his arms. When they heard that the people had been fished out, more and more people gathered around.
Amelia felt terrible when she heard the middle-aged woman’s ear-piercing curses. She was only four years old, but she felt frustrated for no reason.
“Stop scolding people!” Amelia suddenly shouted angrily. “You’re useless! You’re the most useless! You only know how to cause trouble and criticize others when you’re disobedient! You’re the useless one! Useless trash!” She felt that this middle-aged woman was too annoying. Even if she was pitiful without her daughter, the uncles and brothers who were scolded were also pitiful!
They all nodded.
“That’s right, that’s right. It’s not easy for the rescuers either. Of the five corpse fishing boats, three are from the Sunny Day Rescue Team. The Sunny Day Rescue Team has always been voluntary rescuers. They didn’t take your money or your things. They took the initiative to help you, but you scolded them.”
“If you ask me, as a mother, you should be scolded even more! You can’t even take good care of your own daughter. After something happened, you only know how to blame others.’
Someone also persuaded, “Alright, alright. Her daughter is gone. Let’s not talk too much.’
Alex pursed his lips and looked coldly at the crowd with different expressions. He had long been trained to be cold by killings and human lives. At this moment, his emotions did not fluctuate at all, but Amelia suddenly broke free from his arms and ran to a young man who was silently packing his things with his head lowered.
Bill was arranging the ropes. The heavy pressure in his heart was almost suffocating him. After the high-intensity work ended, his mind and body suddenly relaxed. He only felt tired. He even had the thought of never wanting to work in this industry again. He wanted to give up.
At this moment, a small palm grabbed his hand. Bill was stunned. He saw a little girl raise her head and say to him seriously, “Brother, thank you. You’ve worked hard! Brother, you’re the best. You’re as good as Superman!”
Looking at the little girl’s serious expression and her innocent and clear eyes,
Bill’s eyes instantly turned red. “Thank you…”
After a while, Alex walked over and picked Amelia up. “It’s time to go.”
Amelia waved at Bill. ‘Goodbye, Brother.”
Bill also hurriedly waved goodbye to Amelia. At this moment, a sentence suddenly appeared in his heart: Who said that only those standing in the light are heroes?
Bill laughed. He rubbed his eyes and muttered, “Thank you.” The unfamiliar little girl gave him infinite courage again.
Beside him, the middle-aged woman was still crying and scolding. “What right do you have to scold me? Do you know how I feel? You’re not the ones who lost your daughter! You don’t understand anything! Did 1 say something wrong? If these people had come to help quickly, my daughter wouldn’t have died! Boohoo, it’s all your fault. My Mimi, my daughter…”
At this moment, the wind blew the blue cloth covering the girl’s corpse, revealing the girl’s pale face with wide eyes. No one saw it. Her eyes suddenly trembled for a moment before slowly calming down.
Amelia held the yellow talisman in her hand and frowned. She stared at the blue cloth that had been blown away by the wind in the distance. “This malicious ghost is too cunning. She… Eh?”
Alex said, “What’s wrong?”
Amelia pointed at the girl’s body in the distance. ‘Daddy, her eyes are closed.”
Alex looked over and saw that it was true. No one had noticed the corpse’s abnormality just now, but he and Amelia had been paying attention. The corpse’s eyes had been wide open, but now they were closed.
Alex: “The male corpse last night wasn’t like this…” The male corpse rolled his eyes when he was in the river last night. After he was fished out, his eyes moved twice, and they followed him.
Amelia stared at the river for a long time. Suddenly, she said, “l know, Dad.
We were wrong.”
Alex said, “Hm?”
Amelia said, “There should be two malicious ghosts. One is very fierce, and the other is not that fierce. The malicious ghost that pulled Daddy yesterday should be the very fierce one. The one who is not fierce should be in this girl’s body..”
