Maura lowered her eyes without saying a word, but her hands unconsciously clenched.
They were very careful, but still couldn't avoid this group of people.
He and his sister might not be able to escape today.
"Don't be polite to them, Boss."
The one who spoke was the man with the big mole standing nearby with his arms crossed.
He stood aside, feeling no shame at all for bullying a child.
"We couldn't find these two brats for the past two days. I guess they're dreaming of becoming wizards. How could they even take us seriously?"
Green Hair nodded in agreement, and he wanted to laugh when this was mentioned.
"As expected of the son of misfortune, he can even implicate wizards."
"The wizards have now suspended the assessment of new members. I don't know when it will resume."
"Everyone who got a spot will suffer the same fate as him!"
No, it seems like most people died in something... the devil's realm?
Not even a corpse was left behind, so whether the wizard assessment was resumed or not had nothing to do with them.
Green Hair sighed and tutted softly.
That would be even more unfortunate.
I thought this guy could really leave here, but now he has returned to Piccadilly in shame.
The man with the big mole joined in the conversation, looking at the mullah jokingly.
"That's right! His fate is worse than magic. He's destined to stay in Piccadilly!"
No wonder that little bitch Tessa didn't even take her son with her when she ran away with the money.
"Hahahaha!" The green-haired man and the man with the big mole looked at each other and laughed wildly.
Mullah took a deep breath and clenched his hands tighter and tighter, as if he wanted to dig his nails into his flesh.
This action was seen clearly by Angie behind him.
She reached out and grabbed her brother's right hand, freeing his bloody palm and silently comforting him.
"Okay, jokes aren't funny anymore if you keep telling them."
Scarface spoke, and the two younger brothers shrugged and obediently shut their mouths.
He threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stomped it out casually, then spoke straight to the point.
"Little Maura, where's your thank you money this month?"
Things were finally brought back on track, and the younger brothers who had diverted the topic looked embarrassed.
He quickly put away his joking expression and agreed with Scarface's words.
"That's right, we've done so much for Piccadilly, we're not just doing it for free!" The man with the big mole clenched his fists.
"Your mother ran away, but you and your wild sister are still enjoying our protection. You must pay the thank-you fee!" Green Hair looked at them ferociously.
Mullah frowned tightly: "But we just exchanged ten days ago..."
Green Hair immediately interrupted him and waved his hands impatiently.
"The system has been changed now. We charge per person. You and the girl behind you have to pay two!"
Angie's eyes widened at this unreasonable request.
She couldn't help but pop her head out from behind Maura, her eyes revealing helplessness and anxiety.
"When was it changed? Why didn't we receive any news?"
The tone is timid.
It was originally an adorable action, but when paired with her face covered with pimples and scars, it only made people avoid her.
Green Hair was obviously disgusted, he said with disgust.
"Why do you care so much? You want to question me, little brat?"
As he said this, he pretended to drag Angie out from behind Maura.
"If you don't have money, we have ways to deal with it."
Maura quickly took a step back with her sister, looking nervously at the approaching green-haired man.
"No, we have money! Wait a moment."
In front of everyone, he took off the untied canvas bag he was carrying and lowered his head to search for something.
The man with the big mole rolled his eyes and snatched the bag from the mullah's hand.
"Bring it here!"
They can find the money themselves if they need it.
I heard that this kid hasn't dropped out of school yet, so he must have a lot of money.
Mullah's right hand stretched forward due to inertia, paused for two seconds and then silently retracted it, allowing the man with the big mole to toss it around.
Half a minute later, the smile on the man with the big mole's face fell.
He turned the canvas bag over and dumped out everything inside.
There were bottle caps, half-finished crafts, scattered papers, and coupons...
And a handful of banknotes in the hand of the man with the big mole.
The man with the big mole looked at the change in his hand, then at the small objects scattered on the ground.
The tone was surprised and incredulous: "Why is it just this little?"
Among that pile of junk, the most valuable one was a big-headed mobile phone with a broken screen.
"But it's enough to pay my sister and I a thank you." Mullah said with a dull face.
After saying that, he squatted down silently and put the things into his bag.
Seeing this, Angie also squatted down to help.
"Let me see how much it is?" Green Hair grabbed the handful of banknotes and counted them quickly.
That’s enough.
And there are still two smallest denomination banknotes left.
But compared to the extra money they earn from accepting protection from others...thanks to the time spent, it's not a small amount.
It can even be said that it is equivalent to nothing!
You have to know that they are downline, and the bulk of the money they collect has to be handed over to the higher-ups.
The man with the big mole looked at the two dollars in his hand and couldn't say a word.
Wouldn’t it be a waste of their efforts to make this trip?
He looked at Green Hair who was still not giving up and continued to count the banknotes, and sighed helplessly.
He turned around and looked at Scarface questioningly.
What are they going to do? Just take the money and walk away?
Scarface lit another cigarette and looked like he didn't want to talk.
It seems that the intention is to let them make the decision.
The scene suddenly became quiet.
There was only the sound of the mullah picking up the debris on the ground and the collision of stones and the ground.
"How about we come back next time?" suggested the man with the big mole.
It wasn't that he was kind enough to let the two children go, but no one wanted to make a wasted trip.
However, their way of dealing with people who don’t have money to pay the thank-you fee is to use others as collateral.
People need to be dealt with too.
These two siblings were the type that were too troublesome to deal with.
The big ones will fall down as soon as the wind blows, so they can't be sent to the gang to do hard labor, so they can only be sold in small quantities for money.
But wizards and extraordinary people appeared, and the desire of those rich old men to replace parts was greatly reduced.
They prefer to use extraordinary means without any side effects to cure their ailments.
Even if the organ is extremely compatible, they will not buy it easily.
Not to mention the fact that I've been hungry for so many years, and my organs might have developed some problems...
It turns out to be a thankless business.
Might as well go outside and catch homeless people.
The younger one is skinny and thin, not even of his age, and his face is so rotten.
No one wants it even if I give it away for free!
"No!" Green Hair objected strongly.
"The money they took out was just a little more than the minimum amount we required. I don't believe it's such a coincidence!"
These two brats must have heard the news from somewhere and deliberately only brought out this little.
He scratched his hair irritably, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
He pointed at the noodles and said without changing his expression.
"Hey, didn't he give any thank-you money before he ran off? This must be put on the head of this kid, and he should be given it all today!"
"Yeah, even after the rules are changed, I have to fucking submit again!"
