"Hello! You are a hero. You did a good job. We support you!"
A woman pulled a boy quietly to Mary's side and expressed her admiration for her.
Mary looked at the woman and the boy and replied indifferently, "It's my duty."
Receiving Mary's response, the woman immediately became indignant. "Seeing that the lives of the old and the children are in danger and to refuse to help them... Well then, what's the difference between them and animals! To even go as far as to blame others for saving people...is incredibly self-absorbed and shameful!"
Mary looked at them again.
Although the mother and son did not speak up for her in the beginning, they also did not seem to have insulted her with the others.
Perhaps sensing Mary's curious gaze, the woman held her son's hand tightly and felt a little embarrassed. "We are the only members left of our family... We are weak and powerless. I was too timid to stand up and support you."
