“...... Take it, this pair of chopsticks is the bun before I thanked you. ”

Taking the change handed over by the waitress and putting it in his pocket at will, Lian Ge turned his gaze again, looked at the young beggar, and said in a calm tone.

“...... Mmmm......mm

Hearing this, the young beggar was a little panicked, his face panicked, he looked at the chopsticks on the table, and then at the bun in his hand, shaking his head in a panic, and making some sounds in his mouth eagerly.

"Take it, it's extra. Glancing at the flustered young beggar, Lian Ge said again.

When the young beggar heard this, the panic on his face gradually faded, and he slowly lowered his head, looking at the pair of chopsticks that were stained with some dirty marks, and his face was a little hesitant.

Stretched out his hand, or took the pair of chopsticks in his hand,

With his head down, the young beggar pinched the chopsticks in one hand and clutched the bag of buns tightly in the other.

“...... Slow down, welcome you two to come back next time. ”

The waitress on the side watched the young beggar pick up the pair of chopsticks, with a smile on her face, turned her gaze, and greeted Lian Ge and the two.

"Let's go. ”

After saying that, Lian Ge moved his steps again and walked towards the outside of the restaurant, and the young beggar followed closely, with his head down, holding chopsticks and the bag of buns, and followed closely.

......

Behind him, the waitress named Wen Hui turned around, cleaned up the dishes on the dining table, took the handkerchief, wiped the dining table, and the stool,

“...... Buzz, buzz, buzz......"

At this moment, in the pocket of the waitress named Wen Hui, the mobile phone vibrated and rang,

Hearing the voice, the waitress Wen Hui put down the dishes again, hurriedly took out the mobile phone from her pocket, and pressed the answer button.

“...... Feed...... Really, a deaf girl?"

“...... Okay, please wait a minute, I'll be right over, I'll come here. ”

It seemed that something was said on the other end of the phone, and the waitress had a look of surprise on her face,

Immediately after, after hanging up the phone and putting the phone back in her pocket, the waitress was a little hurried, picked up the dishes, and walked towards the kitchen.

“...... Sister Shen, I'm going to go out now, and the boss will come back in a while, you can help me talk about it. ”

Putting the dishes down, the waitress shouted to the other waiter, and hurried again, took the handkerchief and walked back to the table before, wiping the stool,

“...... It's going to ...... again Got any news?"

After the other waiter named Sister Shen put down the food served to a table of guests, she walked towards the waitress again.

Looking at the waitress who was hurriedly wiping the table, the other waiter opened his mouth, and stopped talking a little,

“...... Yes, there was a phone call from over there just now, and she said that there was a girl, also seven or eight years old, very similar, and I had to go over. ”

“...... Wen Hui, I said you...... It's been so many years, it's been so long...... Forget it, if you're in a hurry, just go straight away, I'll clean up here. ”

The other waiter, named Sister Shen, opened her mouth and wanted to say something to the waitress, but immediately after, she just shook her head,

“...... Then Sister Shen, thank you, I'll leave first. ”

When the waitress heard this, she put the rag aside, wiped her hand on the apron, took off the apron on her body, and ran out of the restaurant.

......

Walking to the door of the restaurant, pausing slightly, watching the waitress named Wen Hui hurriedly pass by his side, towards the side of the road, Lian Ge turned his gaze back,

Looking at the restaurant again,

“...... She's out looking for her sister again?"

On the edge of the back kitchen of the restaurant, a middle-aged woman wearing an apron walked out of the kitchen with a clean bowl, put it in the glass cabinet on the edge of the kitchen, raised her head again, and looked out of the restaurant.

Said to another waiter who walked back to the kitchen after cleaning up the table,

“...... yes, I said I found one that looked very similar, and went over and took a look. ”

The other waiter put the rag down and shook his head,

“...... It's been so long, and maybe her sister is ...... After all, when he lost it, he was so big, and the child was still deaf and mute, and he couldn't even cry, and he didn't know where he was thrown there, how could he live......" The middle-aged woman looked outside the restaurant again, shook her head and said.

“...... It's not that you don't know, this girl is stubborn, if she wasn't stubborn, how could she run out of the house in the first place......" Another waiter leaned against the kitchen and answered,

“...... Ay...... This girl is also a ...... of iniquity."

Shaking her head, the middle-aged woman turned around and walked back into the kitchen.

......

Listening to the words coming from the restaurant, Lian Ge paused again,

Turning his gaze back at the young beggar,

"Let's go. ”

After saying another word, Lian Ge moved his steps again,

When the young beggar heard this, he followed, bowed his head, and followed.

......

Along the street, Lian Ge walked forward.

The young beggar clenched the pair of chopsticks with one hand and the bag of buns that had gradually cooled down with the other, lowered his head and followed closely.

"Raise your head and look around, otherwise how can you find your sister. ”

didn't turn his head, his tone was calm, and Lian Ge said out loud.

Hearing this, the young beggar paused, and hurried to follow.

Slowly raised his head, a little cowering and scared to look around the passing streets, from time to time under the sound of car horns, as if frightened, trembling slightly, but did not lower his head again, carefully looked around the passing, just holding the pair of chopsticks in his hand, the hand of the bag of buns, the tighter and tighter.

......

“...... Wow, wow, wow, wow......"

Along the street, the sun in the sky gradually turned into a westward sunset, and the streets became more and more noisy and noisy.

Stopping again, it was a roadside in front of the park.

The young beggar looked at the bun he was holding in his hand, then raised his head and looked at Lian Ge, his eyes were red, there were tears in his eyes, and some sounds came out of his mouth,

“...... She hasn't eaten yet......"

Beside her, a couple walked along the side of the road towards the park, and the woman made a phone call, turned her head, and said something to her husband with a smile.

“...... The sun is about to set, and the weather is going to be cool soon, so come and put on this dress, or you'll catch a cold in a while. ”

A middle-aged woman walked along the road with her daughter, and while the middle-aged woman was talking, she took out a piece of clothing from the bag she was carrying and handed it to her daughter.

......

Glancing at the young beggar, Lian Ge turned his gaze and looked at the four times again,

On the side of the road at the front end of the park, there is a bustle of pedestrians, or couples who go out for a walk after dinner, families, or passers-by.

Leaning against the roadside, there are also some stalls, or itinerant vendors selling food, or stalls selling some small handicrafts, and a few paved with paper, sitting along the street, fortune tellers,

Along the street, farther away, not far from the park gate, in the most lively place, there was a beggar lying on his stomach.

It was a beggar of some age, and his untrimmed hair was stained with oil, and it covered his head.

He was wearing some tattered and thin clothes, and his bare skin was stained with mud.

Lying on a wooden board with wheels, dragging his somewhat twisted legs, his knees wrapped in several layers of thick gauze, as if unconsciously in pain, he let out a faint moan,

In front of the plank, there is also a basin, and from time to time passers-by throw some change into the basin, and there is a lot of change accumulated in the basin.

Glancing at the old beggar lying on the wooden board, Lian Ge turned his gaze and looked at the young beggar,

"Do you have any change?"
