Bab 578: Chapter 195: A Lonely Person Named Ten of Spades

(This chapter actually serves to tie up some loose ends. Although it's not particularly long in word count, the amount of information it contains is not small, and might be a bit complex to understand.)

Hode was an honest man in poverty.

Poverty and honesty were inseparable for him, and although he was a bit impulsive, Hode wouldn't dare to do anything illegal.

Therefore, those dishonest ways of life had nothing to do with him, who was poor.

For Hode, fifty thousand was not a small sum.

Just for listening to the kid boast, he could get fifty thousand—how could he pass up such a good deal?

Hode continued reading.

"The story that follows seems like a fantasy but is in fact incredibly real."

"Have you ever thought that the place where you live has always been distorted? The town outside the garbage dump is such a place."
