Chapter 2529: Hand That Over!
Hand that over!
The little brats couldnt resist coveting what she had.
Ning Shu hugged the jar tightly. What they were asking for wasnt just the jar, but also her and Alviss lives.
Without food, both she and Alviss would die.
Ning Shu refused to talk with them. She bent down and grabbed some trash on the ground, then threw it at the boy.
He was afraid of being hit in the face and eyes, and he quickly covered his face.
Ning Shu attacked the other kids who were surrounding her in the same way and managed to make her escape.
The group of little pests began to chase after her.
Ning Shu grabbed a sharp, wire-like object. Then, she turned around and threatened them. Ill poke your eyes out if you dare to follow me again! Come on!
Ning Shu stopped running away. She turned around and instead lunged toward them with the wire-like object in her hand.
She had a grim expression on her face. She looked as if she thought she was going to die, and wanted to bring a few of them down with her. It stunned the kids who were looking at her.
Im telling you, Im not afraid of you! the boy said, despite the trembling of his voice.
Lets go! Lets tell Vivians brother to drive her and her cripple brother out of here!
After the boy finished speaking, their entire group ran away.
In truth, they werent afraid of Ning Shu. They were afraid that she would hurt their eyes during the fight.
In Sehlde, one could survive even without legs. One could crawl if they couldnt walk. However, without their eyes, they wouldnt have a way to survive.
How would they find food among the endless pile of garbage if they couldnt see?
After the children ran away, Ning Shu immediately relaxed, though she was still sweating profusely.
Ning Shu kept the wire-like object for self-defense and went home with the jar in her arms.
When Ning Shu got to the tent, she heard people talking from inside. One of the voices was Alviss, and the other was Vivians.
Ning Shu walked into the tent and saw Alviss sitting in his wheelchair with a book on his lap.
The book seemed to be in a rather dilapidated condition. Vivian was sitting next to Alviss and reading the book with him.
Alviss raised his head. He saw the jar in Ning Shus arms and was stunned for a moment. After that, though, he said, Youre back?
Vivian, too, greeted Ning Shu by saying, Alyssa.
Ning Shu put down the jar and said to Vivian, Feel free to come here to talk to Alviss more if you have nothing to do in the future.
Alright! Vivians eyes curved as she smiled. Her wine-red hair made her look like a perfect match for Alviss as they sat together.
Ning Shu didnt know if it was because of his legs, but Alviss was a very taciturn kid. He never talked much, and he had no friends, either.
Although, of course, no one could really become friends with each other on Planet Sehlde. In a matter of moments, two friends could fall out and fight over a piece of edible garbage.
People on Planet Sehlde had very short lifespans. Most of them would only reach twenty years old. Thirty years old was the highest limit that they could possibly reach.
They would begin to reproduce at the age of fifteen or sixteen. By the time their children could walk and find food for themselves, they would die.
Some children who were still too young to know any better would get so hungry that they would eat their own parents bodies.
Those ages were clearly the years when people would be in their prime. However, people on Planet Sehlde would normally be on the verge of their death at those ages.
However, Ning Shu didnt know if the lifespan of people from Planet Sehlde would increase if they left the planet.
Alviss, youre literate? Ning Shu asked with a little surprise. Why didnt she know that Alviss was literate?
The storyline that Alyssa gave didnt mention anything about it.
Yeah! Alviss is amazing, Vivian said. He can read!
Ning Shu became even more surprised. There were very few literate people on Planet Sehlde. In order to survive, they had to dig through the garbage dumps for food every day. They had no use for skills like writing and reading.
Knowledge was of no use here. A book was worth less than a loaf of bread in this place.
I cant read, Alviss said. There are pictures in this book. I just follow the pictures.
