Chapter 722

A short candle was lit on an upside-down bowl,

The dim candlelight shone on Margaret's little face.

Sheldon saw Margaret struggling to breathe and convulsing.

Mother asked: "Didn't you take medicine? Didn't it work?"

Margaret's mother: "I drank a little mush at dinner and looked better, but now..."

Mother reminded: "Isn't there still medicine? Give her another one."

"Oh, ok... I'm so confused..."

Margaret's mother took out the small medicine bottle, poured out a tablet, carefully melted it in a spoon, and poured it down for Margaret with the help of her mother.

Others who were woken up woke up and took a look and asked a few words. Seeing that Margarita had taken the medicine, they went back to sleep. They couldn’t help if they stayed here, let alone tomorrow Get up early to work.

Some didn't even come over to take a look at them, such as that fat woman Sarah Hurt, who was next to Margaret and the others.But she slept like a dead pig and snored loudly.

Margaret had a painful expression, talking nonsense in a mess.

Her mother said: "This medicine doesn't work, we have to find another way."

Suddenly, she grabbed her mother's hand and said, "Please help me again..."

Sheldon also turned his hopeful eyes to his mother.

He felt that his mother must have a way.

Only the mother can do it.

She can get medicine.

Mother: "I've tried my best..."

"No, you are familiar with those Germans, you help me to beg them, not... take me to beg them...I will beg them...I am willing..."

Margaret's mother was getting a little incoherent.

Mother was surprised: "Ma'am, what did you say..."

"I... I said... I am willing to pay the price..."

Mother Margaret said with determination.

Sheldon's mother understood that this was the last thing a mother could give.

"Madam, you wait for me to beg them."

The mother got up and ran out, and Margaret's mother ran out too.

But at the other end of the dormitory corridor, they were stumped by an iron gate.

At this time, the supervisor had already locked the door and went back to sleep in the house.

During the day, the iron door of the dormitory will not be closed.

The iron gate will not be opened at night.

The mother knocked on the supervisor's door, and Margaret's mother knocked too.

"Open the door, please open the door, Mr. Supervisor."

Supervision is not German, but the locals that the Germans find.

Usually, as long as the people in the dormitory don't make any troubles, he doesn't make things too difficult for everyone.

Mother thought that begging him would definitely open the door.

Not long ago, Mr. Supervisor told her that he would try his best to find him if there was anything to do.

The door opened, and the supervisor came out: "What are you doing, why are you not sleeping and arguing, do you want to eat the whip?"

"Sir, please open the door, let's get some medicine for Margaret..."

"What, asking for medicine? You are dreaming, wake up, even if I let you out, will those German masters let you enter the official building? In the middle of the night, the masters are arguing to rest, and being whipped is a trivial matter. Those sentinels You deserve to be shot to death. Don't say I didn't warn you... go back. Otherwise everyone will be in trouble. Do you want to kill me?"

The supervisor kindly reminded him because the cook came to him tonight.

He didn't want such a young and beautiful woman to die.

The door slammed shut.A child dies when he dies.What medicine do you still take?

The supervisor went back to sleep.

Even if the two women cry here and wipe away their tears, they will never open the door again.

Mother helped Margaret's mother back to the room.

"Go back, ma'am, let's go after dawn."

This movement did not disturb the people in other rooms, or it could be said that everyone was used to this kind of thing and became insensitive.

Many people died, and everyone got used to it.

Life is like grass here.

People living here have no dignity to speak of.

Back in the room, Margaret's mother held her in her arms and kissed her forehead over and over again.

It seems that this can drive away the disease.

Sheldon was pulled back to his bunk by his mother.

But Sheldon couldn't fall asleep.

He knew that his mother was not asleep either.

She sighed and tossed and turned.

After finally waking up, Sheldon heard the sound of the iron door opening.

The mother's movements were also very fast, and she got up immediately.

He ran to Margaret's mother and said, "Ma'am, the door is open, the door is open, we can go out and beg them."

But Margaret's mother didn't respond or move.

"Madame, madam..."

Margaret's mother stared blankly at Margaret in her arms.

The mother turned her eyes to Margaret in her arms.

He reached out and touched Margaret's face.

It's not hot anymore.

No, it's cold.

Go down and touch the nose and mouth.

Not breathing anymore.

"Oh dear, Margaret, she..."

"Mom, what happened to Margaret?"

"She went to see God."

"what?!"

Is that dead?

Sheldon was a little dazed.

"It must be dead." The fat woman shouted: "If you don't report it to the supervisor, someone will come and take it away. Don't infect us."

A few came over, touched Margaret, and shook their heads, confirming her death.

When the supervisor came, he still stood outside, calling for people to get the dead man out quickly.

Someone came in to take Margaret away.

Her mother held her tight,

"Don't take her away, she is just asleep and will wake up soon."

The supervisor came in and slapped her hard several times, which made her dizzy and fell to the ground.

Margaret was carried away.

The supervisor cursed at the onlookers: "What's so interesting about a dead child, go to work."

Instead of following his mother to the kitchen, Sheldon stayed by the bunk at Margaret's house.

He still can't accept this reality——

His little friend Margaret left, never to be seen again.

Margaret's mother and brother are about to be sent to work on the construction site again.

The Germans don't give you a day off just because your daughter died.

Lisa was left alone on the bunk.

Margaret's brother asked Sheldon to watch Lisa.

So he has been staying here.

Sheldon watched the fat woman dawdle to the end, taking the pill bottle from Margaret's bunk.

Hey, I'll keep this, you're useless.

Sheldon had already ignored her.

Hate, bad woman, not even a single pill.

"Where's my sister?"

Lisa held her mouth shut, trying to cry or not.

Sheldon: "She's gone to heaven."

"Where is heaven?"

Sheldon pointed to the top of his head, "There are many delicious and fun things in heaven."

"I also need to go."

"Only obedient children will go."

"I'm good, I don't cry. But I'm hungry... Sheldon..."

"Don't be afraid, there is something to eat. I'll get it for you."

At this moment, Sheldon made up his mind to let the lovely little Lisa have enough to eat every day.

After hearing his words, Lisa smiled.
