Chapter 505 Stealing Food
Everyone fell silent as they watched the body being thrown into the sea.
This was the first person to die in the cargo hold.
Who will be next?
Back in the cargo hold, the atmosphere suddenly became very oppressive.
Everyone clutched their food tightly, afraid that someone would steal it; at that moment, food was their lifeline.
One person has already died after only 45 days at sea.
This is terrifying.
Huang Dehan hugged his backpack tightly and drifted off to sleep.
He didn't know how long he had slept when he suddenly felt someone tugging at the backpack in his arms.
Someone's trying to steal his backpack!
Huang Dehan woke up with a start, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a man standing in front of him.
He shouted, "What are you doing?"
Huang Dehan's voice was so loud that the man shuddered and let go of his hand.
However, after letting go, he suddenly realized that he had nothing to eat and was going to die anyway, so he might as well fight!
Thinking this, he grabbed Huang Dehan's backpack again and pulled it over forcefully.
Huang Dehan didn't expect this person to be so bold as to snatch his backpack. He pulled it back and shoved the man hard at the same time.
The man, having been hungry for two days, was too weak and collapsed to the ground.
Huang Dehan pounced on the man like a madman, straddling him and raining down punches, angrily cursing, "Fuck your mother, you dare to steal my things, I'll beat you to death!"
The man clutched his head tightly, pleading, "Don't hit me, don't hit me! I haven't eaten for two days, I had no choice!"
"Damn it! You think you can just steal from me because you have no other options? Do you think I'm easy to bully?"
Huang Dehan hit and cursed at the same time.
He was ruthless, making an example of them to warn others. He wanted everyone in the cargo hold to know the consequences of stealing from him, so they would never try to steal from him again.
The man was just a young man in his early twenties, and he had been starving for two days. He was no match for Huang Dehan and was beaten so badly that he screamed repeatedly.
Someone couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up to stop them: "That's enough, stop hitting him. If you keep hitting him, someone will die. He has nothing to eat and won't live much longer. Why do you need to get your hands dirty?"
Huang Dehan then stopped.
It wasn't that he listened to advice, but rather that he hadn't eaten his fill in a long time and was feeling a bit weak.
However, not wanting others to see that he was physically exhausted, he took the opportunity to back down and stopped.
He grabbed the man by the collar and warned him menacingly, "If you fucking dare to mess with me again, I'll kill you!"
He was also saying this to the people in the cabin.
The man quickly replied, "I won't do it again, I promise, please don't hit me anymore!"
Huang Dehan snorted coldly and got off the man.
He picked up the backpack that had fallen to the side, put it on his back, and found a place to sit down.
The man lay on the deck, sobbing softly.
The cries were filled with despair; no food meant death.
Some people couldn't help but cry: "I've finished eating, but my food hasn't arrived yet. I don't want to die! I have a wife and children at home..."
The phrase "wife and children" brought tears to everyone's eyes. Who doesn't have a wife and children at home? Smuggling is just a way to improve one's life.
The crying seemed contagious, and cries echoed throughout the cabin.
"Mine is almost finished too..."
"I can only last two days at most..."
