Punishing Without Teaching is Tantamount to Abuse

The passersby outside glanced at a dozen men gathered in an alley, but quickly moved away with their heads bowed when they saw the ferocious stares sent their way.

"What happened?" asked a bearded man in a deep voice. He wore a sleeveless vest, pleated skirt, and was painted with tattoos of flowers all over his body.

This pleated skirt was a type of clothing worn by both sexes of the Hao Nation's remnant citizens.

"We don't know. We have also just arrived." The rest of them shook their heads. They rushed here when they heard the loud sound.

"Who's the dead person?" The shattered corpse in the alley no longer resembled a human; it was more like a rag. Some of the limbs were blown away to places unknown.

"It's Double-headed Snake. I saw him coming in just now." A 16 year old teenager who was nearby said, "He went to work on the street earlier and was probably successful, but I don't know how he became like this."

The teenager looked frightened.
