The sky is getting late, and Tsinghua Street in Zifeng City is already brightly lit.

At the end of a round of patrols by the security team, a clever little boy came out from behind a street garbage can.

He carried a small box containing tools for shining shoes. Holding a small bench in his hand, it was for the guests to sit on.

His lips were chapped, he had been here all day, and he hadn't even taken a sip of water.

The little boy looked at the corner shop and sighed wistfully.

When he used to be here, he could take two sips of tap water from the small shop on the corner. You can even find some good meat and vegetables from the leftovers of the small shop for lunch.

But now, the little shop on the corner has also changed. The new boss enclosed all the tap water in the house, and all the leftovers were poured directly into the swill bucket, and the swill bucket was also firmly hidden in the kitchen, and he didn't even have a place to drink water, let alone leftovers.

I heard that the previous owner of the small shop closed down because he couldn't operate, so he changed to a new owner.

In fact, the little boy also heard from other sources that it was because the boss didn't know how to bribe the administrators, so he was often bullied by the administrators. I really couldn't do it anymore, so I closed the door at a loss.

In this world, why do good people always have no good reward? And those bad people can eat with fat brains?

"Hey, can you shine your shoes?"

A voice with a playful voice directly pulls the little boy back to reality. Several young men stood in front of him, looking at him with a grin.

"Yes, I can shine my shoes, I can polish my shoes!" the little boy nodded hurriedly.

"Okay, polish my shoes!" A young man with yellow hair stretched out his feet proudly and said loudly: "Wipe them well, my shoes are precious, don't wipe them for me!"

"Don't worry, big brother, I've wiped it for so many years, and this kind of problem has never appeared!" The little boy put down the small bench with a smile: "Big brother, you sit." ”

"Hmm!" Yellowfur sat down triumphantly and stretched out a foot to the little boy.

He was wearing a pair of white sneakers, but now they looked black and smelled.

The little boy quickly took out the shoe-shine equipment, went up to untie the shoelaces, and prepared to take off the shoelaces and wash them first. Who knows, as soon as he pulled it, the lace was directly ripped off, and the shoe was directly broken with a big hole.

"I'll fuck you!" Huang Mao immediately jumped up, kicked the little boy to the ground, and scolded: "I fucking said, let you wipe it well, how do you work? Do you know how much Lao Tzu's shoes cost? Lao Tzu's shoes are newly bought, does AJ know? A pair of shoes is more than 5,000!"

The little boy was frightened, how had he ever encountered such a situation, and said in a trembling voice: "Big brother, I'm ...... I didn't mean to, I didn't use any force, I just grabbed the lace and it broke, this ...... You can't blame me for that......"

Huang Mao squatted on the ground, slapped the little boy in the face, and scolded: "Don't blame me? You broke my shoes, do you blame me?"

"I ...... I really don't know......" The little boy blushed and tears rolled in his eyes, but he gritted his teeth to prevent them from falling.

"I don't know you're paralyzed!" Huang Mao slapped it again and scolded: "You heard it clearly to Lao Tzu, these shoes, when Lao Tzu bought them, they were five thousand eight." After wearing it for a while, the depreciation is a thousand yuan, and it will cost four thousand eight. Lao Tzu sees that you are pitiful, and then I will give you 800, and you will give me 4000, and this matter will be over. Otherwise, Lao Tzu will kill you!"

"Four thousand?" the little boy opened his mouth, where would he get four thousand?

"What? Don't you want to give money?" Huang Mao grabbed the little boy's neck and slapped him twice: ", don't give money, if Lao Tzu can let you leave alive today, Lao Tzu will have your surname!"

"Big brother, I'...... I really don't have any money......" The little boy cried, "Besides, then ...... I didn't break those shoes. ”

"You didn't break it, does that mean I broke it?" You mean I cheated you?" Huang Mao was even more angry, and slapped the little boy again, making the little boy dizzy.

"No, I...... I didn't mean that......" The little boy said in a trembling voice, "I didn't mean you cheated me, this ...... These shoes are so expensive, and the quality must be good. I...... I'm a little kid, how can I have so much effort to tear my shoes directly. This...... Could this be because of the big brother, you accidentally broke your shoes by someone else...... That's why it's like this......"

"You don't talk nonsense!" Huang Mao said angrily: "This shoe is broken in your hands, you have to pay Lao Tzu." Four thousand, give, or not!"

The little boy's face turned pale: "Big brother, I'm ...... Where am I going to get four thousand, I'm just a kid, I'm ...... It's only two dollars for me to polish a pair of shoes......"

"I don't care about you, if you don't give money, Lao Tzu will abolish you!" Huang Mao grabbed the little boy, pressed his head to the ground, stepped on his head with his foot, and waved his hand: "Open his box and take out all the money!"

The young men in the back immediately opened the little boy's toolbox and searched for it, only finding a few dozen yuan in tickets.

"Damn, this money, send the food away!" A young man came up and kicked the little boy, and said angrily: "You have been wiping your shoes here for so long, and you are reluctant to eat, you tell me that you have no money? Where is the money, take it out immediately, or Lao Tzu will chop off your hand first!"

The little boy was trembling with fright, he looked around, there were many onlookers, but no one stood up to speak. Even, many people are still laughing and talking, completely watching the excitement.

"I ...... I said......" The little boy's voice trembled: "I ...... My money isn't hidden here, I ...... I didn't have much money on me......"

"You don't have to suffer if you said no!" Huang Mao raised his foot and said, "Go, take me to get the money!"

The little boy got up tremblingly, pointed to the alley next to him, and said in a trembling voice: "The money is over there, I'll ...... I'll take you over to get ......."

"Yo, I'm pretty good at hiding!" Huang Mao sneered: "Lead the way!"

The little boy walked in front, and the yellow-haired people swaggered behind.

Walking into the alley, when passing by the garbage can next to him, the little boy suddenly sped up and quickly rushed to the garbage can.

"What are you doing!" Huang Mao shouted angrily, but he didn't care, because this was a dead alley, where else could the little boy run?

The little boy didn't speak, he quickly freed the garbage from the corner, revealing a sewer opening underneath.

The little boy jumped down directly, and at this time, the yellow hairs felt that the situation was wrong and quickly chased after them, but the little boy had already entered the sewer. And inside the sewer, bursts of foul odor came out, making people almost sick.
