"Building manager! I beg you to give me an extra day, let me do the task tomorrow! I can't die! My wife and kids are waiting for me to support them! I'm begging you!"
The old building manager had just refused the school-uniformed young man's request to change tasks, when suddenly in front of him, among the twelve residents, a middle-aged man with a beer belly knelt to the ground. He was kowtowing and loudly begging the building manager to allow him not to participate in today's blood task, but to do it tomorrow instead.
Everyone saw a man of considerable age making such a request and had different expressions, but the old building manager's face remained indifferent.
