Chapter 5304 (five thousand three hundred and four) Yawn
When the man said this, he looked up with anger flashing in his eyes, but the anger soon faded away. At the same time, helplessness and depression were revealed in his eyes.
“Did you do as he asked?” asked the Gray Hand Man.
“Yes, I…I immediately grabbed a handful of dirt, smeared it on my nose, and apologized to him.” said the man.
“Did he let you go?” asked the Gray Hand Man.
“No.” The man said, “He pointed at my nose and laughed as if he was watching a play. He also said to the passers-by: ‘Come and see, the dust on his nose was wiped off by himself. Isn’t it funny?'”
“Did anyone really come to see it?” asked the Gray Hand Man.
“It’s true.” said the man.
“Some people listen to what he says?” asked the Gray Hand Man.
“Yes.” The man said, “He was carrying a knife and looked like someone who was not to be trifled with. Some of the passers-by seemed to know who he was. When they heard him ask them to come over to see me… they really came over, and then… they smiled at me and said things like ‘how funny’. When one person saw me leave, he told someone next to him… who that man with the knife was, and he seemed very powerful. I didn’t hear that sentence clearly… but… but I could tell that the passers-by who knew who he was also felt that… they couldn’t afford to provoke him.”
The Gray Hand asked again: “Did he let you go at this time?”
“Because someone came to report something to him, so…so he told me to get lost, and I…quickly left.” The man said, “Actually, he didn’t want to let me go. He told me to get lost because…he wanted to do something else.”
The Gray Hand Man asked, “You’re just leaving?”
“Yes, let’s go.” The man said, “Just because… that man with a knife delayed my time, I… I was reprimanded by my superior again.”
“Tell me about the time your superior reprimanded you.” said the man with gray hands.
I wiped the dirt off my nose on the way, but… I didn’t wipe it clean. As soon as my superior saw me… he disliked me and started to find fault with me and said bad things to me, so I… could only endure it. Then, when I… started to work, I… was a little sleepy because of the dream at night, so… I made a mistake. As a result… my superior asked me to kneel down in front of him, scolded me, and asked me… if I… was deliberately not working properly because I was not convinced by what he said about me just now. I told him… no, I said I didn’t sleep well, so… I was not so energetic, but I was already working very hard. He said that I… made a good excuse, but unfortunately he was not so easy to fool. I explained to him that I was really serious, and I happened to yawn at this time, so he… said that I was faking even the yawn, because… it was too coincidental, it happened to be shortly after I said I was not so energetic, so it was obvious that I was… faking it, but I really was not faking it at that time. He… beat me, saying it was a punishment to make me remember. Later, someone said that he would show him something, and then he… left. He just bullied me, but… I couldn’t do anything because he… was someone I couldn’t afford to offend. That day I was also… bullied by other people, so I was… even more afraid of this kind of dream.”
The Gray Hand Man said, “Do you think that dreaming like that will lead to you getting bullied?”
