By the time they left Hamed's headquarters together, Hamed's adjutant had also brought Sheldon, who was tied up, out of the bunker. 2
Since there had been a war going on a few days ago, Hamed had been afraid that Sheldon would cause trouble or try to escape, and so, he had ordered his men to tie Sheldon up.
Furthermore, Sheldon had also been locked up in the dark bunker because of the war, and he had not seen the sunlight for several days. He looked extremely disheveled, pale, and there was no color on his complexion at all.
At this time, there was only the sunset outside, and Sheldon felt as if he was being reborn when he felt the golden rays falling upon him. 4
He could not see Charlie clearly under the stimulation of the light, but he felt extremely emotional as he faced the setting sun and felt the warmth of the sun shining upon his body.
In the past, Sheldon would never have dreamt that as the son of the extremely wealthy Schulz family, he would one day fall to the point where he would feel that it was a luxury to see the sun.
Before he could even enjoy the sun for a few seconds, the adjutant behind him urged, "Hurry up! Mr. Wade is waiting for you!"
Upon hearing the words 'Mr. Wade', Sheldon felt a trace of panic. After turning his head and after his eyes had adjusted to the light, he saw Charlie, who was smiling not too far away. 2
When he saw that Charlie had a smile on his face as h e basked under the golden sunlight, Sheldon could not help but shudder as he thought to himself, 'This kid looks so dignified and even more harmless when he has a smile on his face, but who would have imagined that this kid would actually be able to do something a s f*cked up as this? He threw me to this godforsaken place and made me go through so many hardships and sufferings... This kid is already inferior to his father, Curtis Wade, just from this point alone. Back then, Curtis Wade was not even half as terrible as he is
As he was thinking to himself, the adjutant had already brought Sheldon to Charlie. Charlie looked at Sheldon before he smiled and asked, "Mr. Schulz, how have you been feeling during this period of time?"
Sheldon had a sad and miserable look on his face as h e said, "Charlie, please just let me go back... This place i s at war every day, and it is really unbearable... It would be much safer for me if you were to throw me 0 n Mount Golmin instead of being here..."
Charlie waved his hand. "You don't have to worry about that. Hamed is already prepared for an armistice with the government. When you come back here after the Tomb Sweeping Festival, there will not b e any war going on here anymore."
When Sheldon heard this, he did not know whether he should be happy or sad. 2
