Chapter 338 - A Sense of Guilt

Chapter 338 A Sense of Guilt

What annoyed Princess Nami was that the man who opened the door didn’t even look at her. She felt like she was basically ignored. Aoki Ichiro was powerful enough to be proud. But how could this man ignore her existence?

Though Princess Nami seemed very unhappy, she didn’t dare say anything. What Xiao Bing had done really scared her.

Xiao Bing nodded and said coldly, “I guess my Royal Highness must be very disconsolate. You are the beloved princess and the most beautiful woman in the country. Everyone should fix their lustful eyes on you wherever you go. Why didn’t he even glance at you? Why treat you as if you’re nothing to him? I assume you must be very angry?”

Princess Nami flared, “You’re annoying me.”

Xiao Bing smiled and said, “You are so smart.”

“…” Princess Nami didn’t dare to lose her temper.

Xiao Bing said, “You don’t need to feel uncomfortable. You should feel lucky that they haven’t done anything to you. Do you know who they are?”

Princess Nami shook her head. “How am I supposed to know all these low-born men?”

Xiao Bing said, “Of course you don’t know them. Because you never see them as human beings.”

Hearing this, Princess Nami looked terrified. “They… They’re…” she said with trembling voice.

“Yes. They are the ones whom you kept in the small corral like animals. I booked three big rooms in this hotel. There are four of them in this room. The other two rooms have three men.”

Princess Nami turned around and tried to run. But Xiao Bing grabbed her and said in a cold voice, “They were in the cage for such a long time. They lived like dogs. No, even the dogs are treated better than them. Yet now you don’t recognize them? Of course, you’re the noble princess. They are nothing more than a bunch of chickens in a cage to you. It’s hard to tell the difference between chickens, right?”

Shocked, Princess Nami screamed, “Aoki Ichiro, why did you bring me here!!”

Xiao Bing sniggered, “You’ve caged them for such a long time. Now they are about to leave. Don’t you want to see them for the last time?”

Princess Nami felt like crying. “Don’t worry, they won’t do anything to you while I’m here. After all, to them you’re just a pretty girl made up of a pile of stinking flesh, nothing more.”

“You think I stink…” Princess Nami was infuriated. But soon she controlled her anger.

Grabbing the girl’s hand, Xiao Bing walked into the room. The one beside them closed the door. Princess Nami was soon overwhelmed by the cloying smell of sweat in the room. She instantly covered her nose and grunted, “They are so smelly. How can they tolerate the smell? Can’t you book more rooms for them?”

Xiao Bing grinned, “It’s comfortable enough for them since they were treated like that before. I wonder if your question is for them or yourself? After all, you have always treated them like trash.”

Princess Nami opened her eyes and found herself at loss for words. Of course, she didn’t care a fig about these low-born men. She just couldn’t stand the environment. She wondered how these men managed to stay in such a smelly place.

Xiao Bing continued, “You might figure it out if you recall how you treated them before. You locked them up with hundreds of men. They couldn’t take a shower, change their clothes or even go to the bathroom.”

Xiao Bing stared at the princess and said, “Can you imagine it…”

Princess Nami pondered for a moment and became very uncomfortable. But she wouldn’t admit her fault. She only grunted for a second.

The three men on the bed tried to sit up. Xiao Bing said, “Lie back down. You guys are still injured. I’m here to apply medicine on you. Did you buy all the drugs I recommended?”

The one who opened the door was the strongest of them. Though there were scars all over his body, they didn’t hurt anymore. He walked over and pointed at the medical box underneath the window and said, “Master, I’ve bought them all.”

“Good.” Xiao Bing walked over, squatted and opened the box. There were cotton, disinfectant, needles, thread, syringes, ointment, etc.

Xiao Bing pulled Princess Nami to him, placed the box on the stool and said, “Treat their wounds.”

Nami shook her head in a flurry, “I don’t know how to.”

Xiao Bing sniggered, “You can learn. First, anesthetize the patient, then clean the wound with alcohol, then sew the wound with the needle, apply the ointment, then bind it.”

“Sew? No, I can’t do this!” Princess Nami almost burst out crying. “I’m even afraid of injections!”

Xiao Bing sneered, “Open your eyes wide and look at the wounds. Think carefully about how they were inflicted!”

Grabbing the girl’s jaw, Xiao Bing forced her to look at the men who were lying on the bed with various wounds and scars on their bodies. The scars were from the battle of 400 men and the wounds were inflicted during their battle with Xiao Bing. Some of the old wounds were festering since they were not tended to in a timely manner. The moment the princess saw the wounds she rushed into the bathroom and began throwing up.

Xiao Bing walked to the bathroom and said coldly, “You think it’s disgusting? Do you know that you are the one who did this?”

“What if you were hurt like this? Do you know how it feels when all your wounds are festering? You have always thought that you are the most beautiful woman on earth and believe that everyone else will agree to it. I believe you’d rather be dead if you were treated like that.”

Princess Nami pictured it. Soon she bent over the sink and threw up almost everything she had eaten.

Xiao Bing was watching her apathetically. After the princess brought out almost all of her stomach’s content, Xiao Bing spoke coldly, “Clean your mouth, then come out.”

Princess Nami did what she was told and left the bathroom. She looked upset. Xiao Bing had intended to hypnotize her to let her be the one who was caged. But he surmised that the girl was mentally weak. So he gave up the idea in case she gets a mental breakdown.

Xiao Bing said coldly, “Go and take care of their wounds. Squeeze the pus out first, then apply the disinfectant and the ointment and bind it up.”

Princess Nami didn’t even dare to look. “Can I just send them to the hospital? I can’t do this…”

Xiao Bing put ice in his voice, “Then what were you thinking? Once you do something wrong there would be consequences to face. Now you can’t even take care of a wound. Do you know how much pain they have to go through every day? When they were locked up, their wounds became inflamed and no one was there to treat them. Some got so itchy they had to scratch them, which made the wounds fester. Yet you think it’s disgusting? Do you know how painful it is? Do you know that they can’t sleep well because of the pain?”

Xiao Bing’s words sent chills down the princess’s spine. She wanted to throw up once again as she began picturing the scene. She had always been a self-centered girl, doing whatever she liked. But she never meant to treat men like toys. It was Eguchi Nakayama’s idea to please her.

Before she didn’t want to do this. Though she was a petulant and childish girl, she thought it was inappropriate. But Eguchi Nakayama told her that these men were all prisoners who had committed evil crimes. He said since they were sentenced to death, it didn’t matter how they were going to die. He even said that their death might be more worthy if they died while amusing the princess. Being self-centered and vain, she took his advice.

She didn’t care about these criminals’ lives, so she never felt any guilt until she heard what Xiao Bing told her. She suddenly realized what she had done. A sense of dread closed around her when she thought of having these ugly scars on his smooth skin. She once thought there was nothing much to death, but now she realized some things were even more terrifying than death.

Pain and affliction.
