“We have been locked up here for a long time. New people come every month, and people are taken away every month.”
You really don't know?
They didn't believe him; they didn't believe he really didn't know.
The old principal was speechless. How should he respond?
"I don't know..."
After leaving school, he had no freedom and could only return home. His family lived in town, so how could they know what was happening in the village?
The little turtle over there had already started fighting with that old ancestor, so the others could only come over to attack the senior and the old man, only to find that they couldn't hit them at all.
"You didn't know?" They seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world. "When we first came here, we respected you very much. You were so kind and friendly to us, and you told us everything we should pay attention to."
The speaker was a volunteer who had come here before. It was because of this old man that they believed this was a place with simple and honest people.
"Because of you, we are willing to stay, willing to stay in this place, willing to teach your children, and even thought that in the future, even when the time comes, we would like to stay a little longer."
We were willing to believe in this little village, but what happened? We were taken away. What did you do?
They tell you we've left, but does that mean we've really left? We didn't take any luggage, we didn't leave any words, and you're really not going to look for us at all?
We are very disappointed, really disappointed..."
At first, they would pray that the old man would find out soon, because they believed.
“When we were brought here, we weren’t afraid because we knew you would save us.”
We were so convinced of this; we were convinced that you would save us and take us away once you found out.
But time has proven that our belief was meaningless.
When the next volunteer came and told them not to be afraid, that their old man would definitely find out, their hearts grew cold when they took us out.
A new person arrived, but he still didn't notice. "It's not that you didn't notice, it's that you didn't want to care..."
The old man's tears immediately streamed down his face.
"I know."
When facing other people, he could still argue that he had his reasons, but when facing these girls, he couldn't utter a single word.
“I know you’re missing, and I know something might have happened to you. I want to contact your families, but I’ve lost all my freedom since that school.”
My phone is being tapped, my freedom is being restricted, and I have family and children.
I'm selfish; I want them to live well.
I hope my child can leave this place…
He is also a father.
He's selfish; he just wants his child to be safe and sound!
He's selfish and acts like he's blind, all so that his child can leave.
"Within my power, I also want to protect you, but I also have my own family. I am selfish and there is nothing I can do for you."
But I... don't regret it!
The old man's initial guilt turned into determination the moment he looked up at the girls. "I don't regret coming here. I've done my best to take care of you."
I told you not to leave the school. You went out and never came back. I tried my best to find you, I even went to the police station, I went to the town government, I did a lot of things, but in the end, it was all in vain.
But I also want to provide a safe place for you, don't I?
Having done this much, shouldn't that be enough?
He's just an ordinary person, what can he possibly do?
"You don't have to hire anyone."
After listening for a long time, the senior student said this.
"You could have chosen not to hire, but you still went ahead and hired, and even interviewed us personally."
We believe you when you say you have no choice, but it's impossible for you to say you did nothing wrong.
He may indeed be under surveillance and unable to do much more, but he is definitely not completely powerless.
When he went to town to recruit people, was he really not allowed to do anything during the interviews?
Of course, the senior student wouldn't accuse her of anything, since she hadn't reached that level with these people and there was no deep-seated hatred between them.
If she had also been imprisoned for a long time, if she had also been bullied, she would probably blame the old man too.
"I didn't interview them. You all applied yourselves and were then assigned here."
You can say I'm selfish, but you can't say I brought you here.
At that time, I just felt that your departure was too strange.
I just didn't question it. I couldn't possibly gamble with my whole family's lives, could I?
He couldn't possibly gamble with his entire family's lives; they still have to survive.
He was going to be their enemy, which meant facing the entire village alone! The entire town!
"As long as you stay in school, I will see you off..."
The senior student knew from the thought of that bus that even when the time came, they still wouldn't be able to leave.
She believed what the turtle said; on the day they arrived, perhaps... perhaps they couldn't have escaped at all.
"Okay, there's no point in talking about this now."
The senior student turned to look at the women and said, "How many of you are there? How many are injured? Can you get up? It's too difficult for Guigui to face so many people all by himself. We have to go out and help!"
The senior student couldn't bear it. She could still move, but she could only watch helplessly as the turtle endured all of this alone.
