The old man was even more satisfied when he heard the little girl's voice.
So sweet! So adorable!
In his head, he was already finished picking out the seedlings he wanted from the bunch.
The other men also entered the crate. However, unlike the old man, they didn't approach them too closely and only observed them after taking a few steps.
After a while, these men finally let the kids out of the crate.
Once they were out of that dark place that had caged them for days, each of them sighed in relief, and even some of them teared up while thanking the men who had saved them.
"Thank you!"
"You helped us!"
"We will never forget this day!"
The children expressed their gratitude with words. But who would tell them that these words would become a curse for them someday in the future?

"Come, come. Let's get all of you some food to eat."
