He turned around uncertainly and asked, "Sir, are you calling me?"
The voice came from a man in his fifties, thin and dark-skinned, who was obviously a local. The other party replied, "I'm calling you. If you don't buy anything, leave quickly! Homeless people are not welcome here."
"Sir, I'm not a homeless person. I'm here to find a job." Amandine explained hurriedly.
"What can you do? Can you operate a computer?" the other party asked.
Amandine was overjoyed when he heard it, thinking that he had not watched action movies online in vain recently. He patted his chest and said, "Of course I can!"
He was really left behind as a night watchman, mainly responsible for watching the videos on the surveillance at night. However, the monthly salary was pitifully low, only 300 baht. It's better to survive first, this is what Amandine thought at this time. The most important thing is that this place is very close to the farm, so he can secretly go back to check who is occupying the house. At night, he sat alone in front of five surveillance screens, pointing his probes at the gate, the warehouse, one on the left and one on the right in the supermarket, and the corridor of the staff dormitory on the second floor. As the night deepened, he yawned. Suddenly, there was a "swoosh" sound! A black shadow flashed in front of the screen. Although it disappeared in an instant, Amandine still saw that this person was the big guy who beat him during the day. "Why is he here? Is he coming for me?"
Amandine guessed correctly that the person was sent by Ludes. After he was injured and left, the old man asked someone to follow him. When he applied for a job as a supermarket employee, Ludes wanted to kill him. He knew that Amandine would not give up, so he wanted to strike first. What Amandine didn't expect was that the big guy actually opened a small door of the supermarket directly. Fortunately, he saw it in advance, giving him enough time to prepare. At this time, he was hiding in a dormitory on the second floor. There was no one in this room, and there were more than 30 rooms here. It was not so easy for the other party to find it. Not long after he hid, footsteps coming up the stairs were heard outside, and it was not just one person, but at least three people. Amandine was quite surprised. "Is this their base camp? am I trapped here?" Just as he was thinking about it, he heard someone outside asking, "Papo, did you see which room he went into?"
"No, he ran very fast and disappeared in a moment." Papo was the man in his fifties who recruited him in the daytime. Amandine thought, "It seems that these people are indeed in the same group. No wonder I, such a bad guy, can find a job so quickly." The people outside were searching one room after another. He really wished he had an invisibility cloak at this time. Just when he was at a loss, Papo and others had already found the room next door. The people in the room were sleeping. Hearing someone knocking on the door, he asked impatiently, "Who is it? What are you doing in the middle of the night?" The big man was a hot-tempered man. When he heard this, he kicked the door open. He rushed into the room, walked to the bed in a few steps, pulled up a sleeping young man and asked, "Did anyone else come into your room?"
"Yes!" the young man replied. "Where?" the big man asked in surprise. The young man pointed at his face and said, "It's you!" The big man was furious when he heard it, thinking that he was being fooled, and raised his fist and punched forward. The big man usually had no problem bullying people like Amandine. This time he met a tough guy, the young man had practiced Muay Thai before. The big man's punches seemed too amateurish to him, so he dodged them easily. While dodging, he also punched out, and instantly punched the opponent's stomach three times. The big man stumbled backwards and finally knocked over a washbasin by the wall, spilling water all over the floor. Papo saw the big man being beaten and yelled at the young man, "Basongda, do you still want to do your job? This gentleman is our new investor."
"Papo, are you blind? He started it first, and I just fought back. Do you want me to stand and be beaten by him?" The young man said unwillingly. Amandine heard the noise from the next door in another room and felt that his chance had come. He quietly stood up, found a piece of wood as a weapon, and gently opened the door. He first looked out and found that there was no one in the corridor, so he walked out slowly. After passing Basongda's room, he ran downstairs. After going downstairs, he took some food from the supermarket, then rushed out the door and disappeared into the darkness without looking back. The most dangerous place is also the safest. He planned to hide near the farm. He remembered that there was a very tall tree there, and he wanted to climb up the tree to hide. Because the distance was close, he found the tree quickly. With the weak light on the roadside, the tree looked more than three meters thick, and it was impossible to climb up directly. He tiptoed and finally grabbed a thicker branch, and then used his hands and feet to climb up with the branch. Fortunately, he was thin and flexible in climbing trees. After a while, he climbed up the tree and hid in a dense branch. It was already noon the next day when Amandine woke up, but he didn't wake up naturally, but was woken up by someone splashing water on him. He found himself tied up in a utility room on the farm. At this time, someone said, "Wow, you're quite the sleeper, kiddo." Amandine looked up and saw who else could it be other than Ludes, "Old man, what do you want to do?"
"I was going to scare you and let you leave automatically, but I didn't expect you to be entangled. Don't blame me for being rude. You ruined the first prize I won last time, and now I'm just taking back what belongs to me."
"Old man, you won the prize because you eavesdropped on my phone. By the way, where are my time phone and cloak? Are they with you?"
"To be honest with you, the cloak is with me, but I didn't find the time phone." Amandine then recalled that he gave the time phone to Uwa a month ago. When he figured this out, he immediately shut up. "What's going through your head?"
Amandine glanced at him and didn't answer. "Hurry up!" Ludes suddenly grabbed his neck and asked. Amandine's neck was being strangled, and he could only utter a vague sound of "Hurry up... let... me go!" Ludes understood and let go, "What's up? Do you want to say it?"
"Come closer, I'll whisper to you."
Ludes was overjoyed, lowered his head and moved forward, and the moment he turned his head, Amandine bit off his ear. With a scream of "Ah", Ludes' ear was bitten off halfway. Looking at the bloody ear spit on the ground, Ludes was furious. He covered his bloody left ear with one hand and kicked Amandine's crotch. This time the scream seemed to be louder than before, and Amandine rolled on the ground in pain.
