Chapter 950
Stephanie brought Charlie to the dormitory area of the orphanage. Charlie could see the dormitory
that he used to live in at a single nce.
After looking out the window, Charlie saw a dozen or more children who were about one to two
years old ying under the leadership of one of the aunts in the orphanage.
He could not help but ask, "Stephanie, why are there s o many young children at the orphanage
now?"
Stephanie replied, "There are many irresponsible parents who sent their children directly to the
entrance of the orphanage after giving birth to them. Some of these children were abandoned
because of congenital disabilities or diseases. Some of them have the same fate as me, and they
are abandoned because they are girls."
Stephanie could not help but sigh when she spoke of this. i
After that, she said angrily, "There are also many children who have been abducted by human
traffickers but were subsequently rescued by the police. Some of the children are too young, and it
is impossible for the police to find out who their parents are. Therefore, they can only be ced
under our foster care in the orphanage for the time being. After finding out the identity of their
parents, they will be
sent back to their families."
When Charlie saw that some of these children had some sort of physical disabilities, he could not
help but ask, "Stephanie, why are there so many disabled children here? Is it congenital
disabilities?"
"No." Stephanie replied indignantly, "These are all children that the police rescued from the human
traffickers. They were all originally healthy children. However, after being abducted and taken away
by these human traffickers, they did not sell these children. Instead, they turned them into disabled
children so that they could put them out of the streets t o beg. They destroyed the lives of these
children in an instant and turned them into their cash cows." 8
When ire heard this, she said angrily, "Those people are jerks! How could they turn these
healthy children into disabled people?" 1
Stephanie replied, "There are these kinds of bad guys who have no conscience and specialize in
doing these kinds of things. They are all normal and healthy people who have their own hands and
feet. However, they pretend to be disabled and go around begging to make a living. Later, they
eventually find out that it is really easy for them to make money by begging on the streets.
Therefore, in order to make more money faster, they deliberately look for disabled people to beg on
the streets to increase their credibility. When they could not find any more disabled people, they
decided to buy some children and turn them into a disabled person so that it would be easier for
them to beg on
the streets.”
ire was shaking with anger as she blurted out," Assholes like that should be shot to death!" 9
Charlie sighed as he said, "Actually, I have already heard of the existence of the beggar syndicate
when I was still working at the construction site. They mostly consist of fellow vigers or rtives
who formed and organized a group to beg in big cities. Some of them are extremely cruel, and they
specialize in targeting minors." 3
After that, Charlie continued speaking, "Do you remember that we watched an Indian movie called ''
Slumdog Millionaire’ about two years ago? There was the leader of a beggar syndicate who made a
young child blind because he could sing very well? After making him blind, he made him sing and
beg on the street. It seems as though this kind of thing only happens far away from us, but in actual
fact, it is often happening around us.” 9
ire said angrily, "I really did not expect such demons to be around us. If I knew about this, I
would have studied in the police academy to be a police officer so that I can bring these bad
guys to justice instead." 3
Stephanie sighed as she said, "Sister-inw, the main point is that there is just too much profit
margins in this syndicate. Therefore, many people would be willing to take the risk of getting shot as
long as they are able to make that much money.” 4
Stephanie felt that the conversation was getting a little too heavy. So, she hurriedly said, "Oh, it is
already gettingte. Why don’t we head to the restaurant first? Some of our friends might have
already arrived."
Charlie nodded slightly and said, "Yes, let''s go to the restaurant first." 4

The three of them left the orphanage together. At this time, Charlie suddenly asked Stephanie, "By
the way, Stephanie, is the orphanage facing any difficultiestely?"
Stephanie smiled as she said, "We have always been facing all sorts of difficulties. However, we
can still pull through. The children''s living conditions are much betterpared to what we had
when we were young. The only downside is the fact that the ssrooms, dormitories, and cafeteria
are really too old. The dean has always been applying for funding because he was hoping that we
would be able to raise some money for some renovation. However, the superiors have always said
that the finances are too tight and that there would not be any funds avable for the time being." 5
Charlie nodded lightly as he took every word that she had just said to heart.
