Chapter 522 Half-Beast Demon
"What happened?" Olena asked.
"No, nothing... it's just a minor situation. Let's start with the product
drying room." Philip said calmly, as if he didn't take this accident to heart.
But soon, the noise was mixed with lashes and screams.
There are also insults like half-beasts and cheap breeds.
Li’s ears suddenly stood up, and she took the lead to walk towards the side of
the factory.
"This is..." Philip couldn't help frowning. He had always regarded the fox
demon as air before. He didn't say anything to drive him away. It was a
manifestation of the gentleman's demeanor. How could this servant be so bold
and act faster than his master? Too much of his expectation.
To his disappointment, neither the Orientals nor the Dragon Girl made any
punishment.
Don't talk about punishment, there is no angry scolding.
"Li?"
"I want to take a look at the situation."
Seeing her saying this, Xia Fan could only choose to follow—Orina had
repeatedly told before coming that this is not Jin Xia, and if Li did not
cover up her appearance, she must not be allowed to contact outsiders alone.
The factory building is no more than a hundred steps from front to back.
But the scene displayed is completely different.
There is also a small open space here, but it’s not goods stacked on it, but
torture racks. Seven or eight people were tied back to the thick wooden poles,
exposing their entire backs, while a strong man was swinging a whip and
beating these thin people.
The source of the dispute is a half-orc woman, or demon. Judging from her
ears, she should belong to the cat demon type—she has short curly hair,
wheatish skin, and her eyes are like orange-red crystals. She does not look
like a native of the Holy Wings.
"There is no reason for you to do this! If it were not for defaulting on
wages, they would not be hungry enough to eat a few fruits!" The woman said
angrily when facing a tall man, "Moreover, the fruits themselves are damaged
during transportation, so how much can they be worth? You wounded them, it was
equivalent to interrupting their work for a month. How is this different from
killing?"
"It's not worth a lot of money, so you should pay for them?" The man was
unmoved. "Stealing is stealing. No matter one or ten, it can't change the
nature of the burglary. Did I say it? , Any act of stealing must be severely
punished. If you don’t teach you these low-powered children, you won’t
remember it at all. Don’t stop, give me a severe blow!"
"Stop, no hits!" The cat demon was anxious, hugged the strong man's arm,
opened his mouth and bit down.
"Damn—this brute dares to bite!"
"Pull her away!"
The other three or four supervisors immediately rushed over, breaking hands,
pulling hair and pulling hair, abruptly separating the two.
"Damn, I bleed!" The strong man held his arm, looked angrily at the catwoman
who was kneeling on the ground, raised his foot and kicked her. The latter had
nowhere to hide, was kicked violently in the abdomen, and his body instantly
shrank into a shrimp under the severe pain.
"Do you want to stand up for them, don't you? I will perfect you." The tall
man said with a sullen face, "You guys, go and hang her on the stake for me
too!"
The woman struggled as hard as she could, trying to break away from the
control of everyone, but in exchange for another punch.
Because of the noise, the scene can be described as chaotic, but Xia Fan
noticed that in the factory shed less than ten steps apart, the workers were
still busy working, and few looked up. Occasionally someone looked here, and
his expression was also blank.
"Xia Fan." Li Shen said.
"I know." The tone Xia Fan couldn't be more familiar. Even if the other party
didn't say anything, he knew what the fox demon wanted to do next. However, if
you really have to wait for Li to make a move, the situation is likely to
become out of control, so he has to fight the first round.
"Everyone!" He walked to the overseers, "Could you tell me what they did
wrong? Maybe I have a better solution."
"Who are you?" The tall man swept coldly.
"Gol, don't be rude, this is the guest!" Philip chased him quickly.
"Brother?" The face of the person called Gore changed immediately, and
immediately changed to a smile, "Ah, it turned out to be a guest... Sorry, I
was frightened. Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just to deal with a few
mice. That's it."
"They... are not mice." The cat demon gritted his teeth, ignoring the blood
dripping from the corner of his mouth.
"Stealing is a mouse, let alone stealing food from more than one."
"If it weren't for being too hungry, who would—"
"Come on," Gore interrupted her, "Which offender has no trouble? Words are
like wind, and behavior is the standard for measuring people. Besides, I did
this for your sake, if this happened in the market area. Here, what you want
to see is not the whip, but the gallows."
Things are really not that complicated.
Several employees working in the factory stole a box of fruit because of the
late pay. As a result, the supervisor discovered this behavior and immediately
reported it to the supervisor's younger brother Gore, so this scene occurred.
Catwoman herself didn't steal, but she couldn't see Gore's actions, and took
the initiative to stop him. It's a pity that Baiguoyuan's practice itself has
the meaning of killing chickens and monkeys, whether it is for Liwei or
suppression, it is impossible to stop because of a half-beast's protest.
"How much is the fruit?" Xia Fan asked.
"Mr. Xia, this matter has nothing to do with you." Philip coughed twice, "I
can stop them first to ensure that it won't disturb your visit."
"You treat me as if I am adhering to the will of God and be kind to others."
Xia Fan blinked at Olena, "That's what the Church of Hera said?"
The dragon girl nodded, "It is indeed the doctrine of the sun ** to redeem
the world."
Seeing that the churches were moved out, Philip was also uncertain about the
identities of the two. Taking into account the status of the dragonborn, he
finally chose to concession, "In this case, then one person, one silver sage
is good."
"Fruit...How can it be so expensive!" The half-beast woman struggled.
"Okay." Xia Fan readily took out the purse and took out nine silver coins,
"Count this person too."
The "person" in his mouth is the demon who was pressed on the ground.
Philip nodded to his brother after receiving the coin, UU read
www.uukanshu.com, "Lucky for these guys, let them loosen their bonds. By the
way, tell them that if they commit the crime again next time, it won't be done
with a few whips."
Gore seemed to want to say something, but he glanced at Olena with silver hair
and red lips, and finally swallowed the words into his stomach.
"Then Mr. Xia, the trouble has been solved, do you still want to visit the
factory?" Philip still asked enthusiastically.
"Why not?" Xia Fan also pretended that the matter was not worth mentioning,
"please lead the way."
...
After leaving Baiguoyuan, the other two have no interest in hanging out.
Looking at the prosperity of the market area is quite a shadow of Jinxia City,
but the things that hold up all of this behind are completely different from
Jinxia.
"Let's go back." Li proposed.
Although Xia Fan wanted to visit other factories, especially the big factories
that Philip said were located on the riverside, he did not express any
objection, considering that the time will be long afterwards.
Just as a group of people passed through the shack area as they were, the
catwoman appeared in front of them again.
