NovelEnglishJoey tried to move, but his body hurt so much.
Beads of sweat formed on his forehead as he endured the pain.
Underneath his shirt, his back was black and blue.
When the man choked him, Joey fought hard to stay alive.
He kicked the man with all his remaining strength, but what could a child like him do to defeat a strong and angry man?
The man easily threw him away.
His small body hit the corner of the tea table, which made him groan in pain.

Are you deaf?” Again and again, the man kicked Joey.
“Don’t play tricks on me! Get up and eat! Or I’l kill you now!”
Enduring the pain, Joey held onto the sofa for support and sat up.
The man looked at Joey’s alert expression and sneered.
“Are you scared now? Weren’t you very arrogant earlier? Hey! Where’s your guts now?”
There was no way Joey could talk back.
He was already coughing blood.
The man turned around when he heard footsteps coming from the stairs.
Upon seeing his boss, the man quickly flashed a fawning smile.
“Boss, you’re awake.”
The leader put his hand on his neck and twisted it as he yawned.
“I didn’t sleep well.
There was a wild dog outside last night.
It was so noisy.”
“The dog disturbed your sleep? What a stupid dog! I’m going to kill it right now.” Just as the man reached out for his gun at the back of his waist and turned around to leave, his boss stopped him.

Hearing this, the man paused and looked at his boss in confusion.
As the leader walked towards the living room, he said indifferently,
“It’s dead now.”
The dog was poisoned to death.
To quiet the dog down, the leader tossed the dog a ham sausage with sdrug in it.
Soon after eating it, the dog started to froth at the mouth and fell to the ground, where it died shortly thereafter.
He just stood by the window watched the dog die.
As if on cue, a child’s cry cfrom outside.
Then it was followed by comforting voices of adults.
“Honey, don’t cry.
Don’t cry.”
