This is the story of a child. The child grew up in the slums of Longmen. For a family like hers, there is no choice but to become poorer and poorer. After being kicked out of the house by her mother in tears, she
He became a wild child.
A wild child also needs to find a way to eat and survive alone. For the thin but clever girl, stealing is a good way to survive.
So, this is also the story of a thief.
No matter how good a thief is, he will always fail.
——
"Cough...!" A fist hit Ansuo's abdomen. She was so thin that she couldn't withstand such an impact. As for why she didn't fall down, it was entirely because she was hung by a rope in the room with only a pair of toes.
Landing on the ground.
Very, is Ansuo (Rope) trapped by the rope (Rope) now? It’s really a funny joke. Now she is no longer the child who crawled around in tears. But except that she is not crying
Apart from the tears, it was no different from the original one, it just had a little more bad taste to make fun of myself.
Was she beaten by a gangster? There was nothing that could be done about it. After all, no matter how powerful a thief was, he would always make a mistake. But this time, it was not because she successfully stole the wallet that she was discovered, but because she was discovered that she had not stolen the wallet.
This world is really *龙门expletive* funny.
——
"Uh...!" The thief hugged the things in her arms tightly and fell to the ground. Her small arms did not have enough room to protect her body. The two men chasing her kicked and beat her. She just endured this silently.
All, wait for them to get bored and walk away.
But this time the perpetrator seemed to be quite naughty. Seeing that she showed no sign of letting go, the strong man in a singlet actually picked her up by her ears and was about to slap her hard on the face.
, the thief closed his eyes in fear——
"Hey! Give me a little more if you hit someone, don't slap me in the face!"
The girl's loud voice came, and her slender arms actually held the thug's thick hand. The two of them glared at her and were about to take action when another magnetic voice came:
"Mo'er!"
There was a sound of hurried footsteps, and the man said to the girl in a harsh voice: "How many times have I told you, you are such a big man, could you please stop running around?" The thief opened his eyes slightly and looked at the man and woman.
I found that their eyes were falling on me.
Both of them have dark hair and eyes. From their noses and chins, one can tell their relationship: they are probably father and daughter. The man is holding a shopping bag in his hand, and the girl is carrying a schoolbag. She may have just finished school.
The man wears half-rimmed glasses and looks quite scholarly.
The horns on their heads indicate that they are Sakaz people.
He said: "...Why do these two gentlemen fight against such a child? Let the child go."
"Humph!" The man carrying her was quite annoyed: "This brat stole something from our store! Why can't I hit her?"
"She stole something, right? I'll take it with her. How much does it cost?"
The strong man looked quite confused, "Twenty yuan Longmen coins."
"...You're going to attack a child just for twenty yuan?" The man looked helpless. He took out two half-old banknotes from his thin wallet and handed them to the strong man. The strong man sneered and handed them to the strong man.
The thief threw it away casually: "Are these two good old men saving the thief? It's just a waste of money."
The girl glared at the strong man who was two heads taller than her, hugged the thief who was not yet ten years old, and asked with concern: "Does your ear hurt?"
The confused thief didn't know what to say. He just heard the girl's father say: "Let's go..."
The man was silent: the things the thief kept in his arms were just two pieces of bread flattened by her withered body."
"Let's go to the store quickly and help her treat her wounds. When your mother comes, she will definitely talk about me."
——
The gangster with the copper coin tattoo on his hand came to her with a knife, the tip of the knife was pressed against her clothes, with a lewd smile on his face. He asked in a joking tone: "I don't understand, things are obvious
You got it, but you threw it away, causing a lot of trouble for our brothers, and making you look like this, what are you thinking?"
"Why did you drop the thing?"
Although extremely embarrassed, Ansuo did not want to answer his questions in exchange for peace. She was just a thief and had nothing.
——So the only thing you have must be protected.
——
The thief and his daughter Sakaz came to a small shop. The girl was busy treating her wounds, while the father was busy at the counter.
The girl had endless words to say. She was concerned about her situation and slowly told her about her life experience. She also told her that she had a sister who was younger than herself. While chatting, the girl gave the thief medicine.
, just when everything was about to be completed, a woman appeared: the thief recognized that she was the mistress of the house.
The woman looked confused, and the man coughed awkwardly and pulled her aside. The girl finished bandaging the thief in silence. A few minutes later, the host and hostess returned to the store, and the woman said nothing.
The thief left, taking the two loaves the man paid for her, some snacks he packed behind the counter, and a large iron box. "The compressed biscuits are not very delicious, but drinking some water may help."
——Find some other way out, and stop stealing before the cookies are finished."
The hostess came to her, pinched her little face, and brought her a few flat notes behind her husband's back: "Go buy yourself a pair of shoes."
——A few toes were exposed from her worn shoes, which were red from the cold in Longmen.
Before she left, the girl rushed out in a hurry, as if she had nothing to give her, and looked apologetic - she put a sticker on the lid of the iron box: a purple rabbit, the same color as the thief's fur.
The thief left them, bought himself a pair of shoes, saved himself from eating those unpalatable biscuits, and worked hard to find a job - but in the end he still could not escape the ranks of thieves. The empty iron box was like her empty heart,
She didn't dare to look for that family again. She only dared to take a few glances from a distance in the dead of night or when there were many pedestrians.
Later she learned that it was a pawn shop. People in the slums always went in with some scraps of metal, but they always left with two dollars. Sometimes there were well-dressed people who came with big smiles and some
The tightly wrapped items left.
Later, she also learned that the owner of the pawn shop was named Shen. The male owner came from Yan Kingdom and the female owner came from Dong Kingdom. After they settled in Longmen, they had a child. It was a girl she had met, named Mo. A few years ago
I also have a little daughter named Xuan.
Later she also found out...
The thief never went to school, but he knew some stories. In his mind, he thought of this small shop as the Garden of Eden that the Sakota missionary told. The pair of small shoes he bought could no longer be worn, but they were repaired by her.
She got it up, washed it very clean, and put it in a place that only she knew, along with the empty iron box with the sticker on it. Maybe this was her treasure? Although she was not a pirate but a thief.
Later, she also learned that the host and hostess died in a car accident on Christmas Eve. The pawn shop was seized by some inexplicable people. Some people said that it was to be auctioned to pay off debts.
Their eldest daughter named "Mo" stood in front of the pawn shop for several days. The thief, wearing a thin coat, looked at the no longer open Garden of Eden from a distance, and the angelic Sakota.
On Christmas Day, the girl came to the store again and saw the army green tin box with a purple rabbit sticker. She obviously recognized the box. She knelt down and opened it——
There is a pair of white paper flowers inside. The maker's hands may have been cracked by the cold wind, and the edges are stained with a little bloodshot.
The thief watched from a distance as the girl took away the iron box, then came to the door of the pawn shop for a long, long time, crying like a child - a long, long time.
Because she couldn't attend the funeral the next day.
——
"Hey, tell me, what is it for?"
"...I don't know why." Ansuo's voice was weak, with tears in his eyes. "I only know why you have to show me the way, and show me the back instead of the photo - I still know those debts
What on earth is it! I also know why you asked me to steal her wallet!"
"You heinous villains! Come at me!"
Ansuo roared at the top of his lungs: "I am a thief - at least I am still a human being!"
"You all go to hell!"
"Crazy woman!" The gangster holding the knife gritted his teeth: "Let's see if I don't tear off all your clothes today, and then -"
"Don't move!" An angry yell came from behind the broken door panel:
"Longmen Guards Bureau!"
Ansuo looked towards the door and saw a tall figure with long green hair.
