Rio de Janeiro, the slum of Rosinha.

Most of the people in the city were still asleep, and Juan had already woken up early to start the day.

First of all, he prepares a simple breakfast for his wife and four children, which is a bun and cheese that is close to the expiration date of the bargain market, and the children drink the juice once a week. Since he couldn't go home all day, he prepared rice, braised beans and tapioca flour, and his wife could eat them with the children as long as they were heated at noon.

Juan does this in half an hour, then picks up his second-hand Ford pickup truck and goes to the seafood market, eight kilometers away, where he has to deliver it to five restaurants in the city by 6 a.m. every morning.

After that, he usually takes a nap in the car and waits an hour later to pick up work at the open building materials market or around the dock. With a bit of luck, the money earned can help the family eat a hearty barbecue in the evening. If he was unlucky enough to be caught by the police and fined, this week would be in vain, because he had no legal qualifications.

Then by 6 p.m., he had to go to the city center to work as a part-time water delivery worker. The pay was very meager, but he had to work like a mule for three or four hours, and as soon as he entered the house at the end of his work, he collapsed in bed, and did not even want to eat dinner.

Juan is only 35 years old this year, but he has gray hair on his sideburns, and the hardships of life have completely deprived him of the joy of life. This life is like this, day after day, year after year, and I don't know when it will come to an end. But he is more afraid that no one will be hired, because if he loses his job, his family will immediately fall into poverty.

Juan has always dreamed that one day, the family will be able to move out of the slums and no longer be bullied by gangs and drug dealers, dream that one day, the family can live in a spacious and bright house and no longer worry about water and electricity bills, and dream that one day the four children can go to school in the city instead of wasting their days on the streets...... It is this dream that supports him to survive day by day.

His fate changed forever before dawn today.

Juan went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for everyone as usual, and in the dim light he saw an envelope-like thing on the table. "What is this?" he walked over and picked it up......

A minute later, he howled hysterically, "Alixia, Alixia! Oh my God... Oh my God...... Come on, come on!"

The woman was sleepy-eyed and said angrily, "Why are you screaming so earth-shattering? The children are still asleep, and it's not good to wake up the neighbors." When he came to the kitchen, he saw the man sitting on the ground in a daze, and he became worried again, and asked anxiously, "What's the matter?"

Juan handed the woman a piece of paper in her hand, and the woman was stunned when she looked at it, and she rubbed her eyes vigorously - yes, it was a check, a cash check for $1 million!

The woman was frightened, shook the man's shoulder and asked, "This money... Where did you get that? So much money...... Oh my God, don't get in any trouble!"

Juan said blankly: "I don't know, I saw this as soon as I entered the kitchen - hey, there seems to be a piece of paper in the envelope......"

The woman was quick-eyed and snatched the paper, on which was a passage in Portuguese, with poor handwriting, but she could see it clearly:

"Dear Mr. Juan, during the massacre in Rocinha a month ago, you bravely protected the widows and children of more than thirty crew members, risking the massacre of your entire family. Allow me, in Antonio's name, to pay tribute to such a noble act and to give me $1,000,000 as a token of appreciation!"

The note was not signed, and the woman was stunned for a long time, muttering: "Good people have good rewards, good people have good rewards...... muttering and suddenly knelt down and prayed sincerely. Juan was stunned and knelt down to pray with the woman.

In the morning light, Shi Xiaofeng walked in a secluded alley, in a very happy mood.

He liked a kind person like Juan, and was happy to see the two of them change from shock to ecstasy. He believes that with this money, Juan's family will definitely be able to live a good life!

Turning a corner, a small Jeep stopped quietly in front of him, and a beautiful Brazilian girl leaning on the body was looking at him and smiling.

The Brazilian beautiful girl is tall, her eyes are deep and misty, the bridge of her nose is straight and straight, her lips are plump and full, and her brown hair is flying in the morning breeze. What a beautiful picture, Shi Xiaofeng was drunk.

Nina smiled and said, "Brother Shi, it feels good to be a savior, right?"

Shi Xiaofeng said with a straight face: "The name of God cannot be abused! I am not a savior, I just did what I had to do, and Juan also got the reward he deserved - besides, the $1 million was knocked out from Zhuo Ke, and I just borrowed flowers to offer Buddha." ”

Nina also said with a straight face: "But without Brother Shi, the wicked will not be punished, and the good people will not be rewarded!"

Shi Xiaofeng also felt that this was the case, but he always felt embarrassed that he was not humble. He was still thinking about the wording, and Nina said again: "It's just that the devil Zhuo Ke was cheapened, more than 200 lives, and he was only sentenced to life imprisonment, hum!"

Shi Xiaofeng said: "It is more meaningful for him to pay all his property to the government in exchange for his life, so that he can repent in prison for the rest of his life than to kill him." ”

Nina was silent for a moment, and then said: "The government took out a part of his property as a pension for the victims' families, and Dad also got some. He has decided to retire and let the third brother use the money to run the fleet. ”

Shi Xiaofeng knew that the "third brother" she said was Antonio's youngest son, and he was quite relieved, saying: "All misfortunes are over, and the future is ...... Your third brother will surely restore the former glory of the Antonio family!"

He was very pleased with his words, and felt a little embarrassed. Nina nodded, tears welling up in her eyes.

Shi Xiaofeng was afraid of seeing the beautiful woman crying, so he hurriedly said something light to ease the atmosphere.

"By the way, you said that Juan and his wife can read my Portuguese writing?"

Nina couldn't help but laugh out loud and said, "There is no problem with the grammar, I wrote it for you to copy." However, your handwriting is... It's ugly. ”

Shi Xiaofeng laughed. Nina was also smiling, tears still on her beautiful face, glistening in the morning light.

Shi Xiaofeng glanced at it and quickly looked away, thinking: My Shi family's ancestors have accumulated virtue, and I can always meet such a beautiful woman who turns all beings upside down and harms men. However, "encountering" is enough, I still don't provoke less, I have enough women.

He made up his mind and said goodbye to Nina, saying that the ticket had been booked and that he would return to China tomorrow. Nina didn't say anything to hold on, but there was a palpable look of disappointment on her face.

A day later, Shi Xiaofeng got on the plane back to China, and his heart was so busy that he couldn't calm down for a long time.

This time I went abroad for more than two months, and the strange encounters and changes were greater than any previous ones. He wiped out all the drug lords of the Zhuoke Group, fulfilled the oath he made to the deceased, and was finally able to return to China with peace of mind.

But when he thought of the more than 200 unjust souls in the slums, he felt a faint pain in his heart. He sighed, still unable to shake off his self-blame and guilt.
