Chapter 462 (1/2)
Joe fell ill
He was the second weakest in the group before Paper was kidnapped, and since then he had becoht he came back fro ht red cheeks
”He was infected by the cold plague,” Sunflower said while touching Joe's head, ”and his head is burning hot”
”Will I die?”
Joe, squinting his eyes, asked softly
No one answered
The cold plague was an extremely stubborn disease, and once contracted, you can only rely on the body to resist the infection However, people ere physically fit seldoenerally weak, so very few patients could survive it It was essentially a death sentence for Rats
”I'll go and look for Kanas,” said Snaketooth, breaking the silence
”What do you want hiive Joe more food” He stood up ”I've heard that the chance of survival is greater if the patient is kept warerclaw shook his head and said ”We all knohat kind of person he is”
”Exactly, youhay ”Rats never feed any useless person”
”Joe isn't useless” Snaketooth retorted ”He can read!”
”Just a feords, and of what use is that to Kanas? He wants people who can steal and rob others”
”” Snaketooth clenched his teeth, turned around and walked towards the er's room in the Endless Lane He had to try even if he would be beaten up by Kanas with a stick
Surprisingly, Kanas was not back yet
”You're lucky” When he brought the rinned ”Or we hed ”Each of us will give a portion of our bread to Joe later when it's time for the bread distribution so that he can eat more”
However, Snaketooth did not feel lucky at all He could feel soht
”It'd only take half an hour to send the e to bloodyhand It's understandable that bloodyhand didn't coht due to the discussion of countermeasures—but it's already noon, the discussion should have been finished by now” Furthermore, when his men opened the door, he took a peek and realized Kanas and his lover were bothafter, and Snaketooth realized that it was distributed by Kanas' confidant
What he received was nothing but half a slice of brown bread
After four days, Joe's condition was still deteriorating
He was yelling that he felt cold yesterday, but he couldn't speak a word today His once pink cheeks started to turn pale and his breathing was getting weaker
”We've tried our best,” Sunflower said languidly with her hand on her stoiven half of their food to Joe in the past few days If it was not for theerclaho used to be very energetic, was starting to look feeble as well
Kanas had not shown up these past few days
More than a hundred Rats gathered in the room and started to discuss this matter But it was just a discussion—after all, they were still getting food as usual However, it was especially noisy today
