Section III

In the legendary story, whenever he encounters a beauty in danger, the male protagonist will rush forward bravely without hesitation for the first time and fight to the death against those vicious gangsters. They are all heroic people who never know how to write the word "afraid", have a strong will like steel, never hesitate, never timid.

But it's a pity that our protagonist Xu Yan is not this kind of decisive hero, he is just an ordinary college student, not very bold, and he can't run for six minutes in the 1,500-meter assessment, although he also has times when he is enthusiastic and brave - such as scolding the Japanese on the Internet, but more often, he thinks about practical problems:

"The other party is a hooligan in society, these people, even if they can win, it will be very troublesome to get into trouble. Wang Hao, who was in the business management class next door, provoked people in the society, was chased to the school to seek revenge, and finally alarmed the police station and security office, and had to drop out of school. Besides, there are five or six of them, and even if I go out, I'm afraid I won't be able to help much, right? Or I'll call the police? But how can I tell the police? Even if the police believe me, I don't know where they are robbing...... Anyway, this girl is not my person, and I have reminded her that she will bear the consequences if she doesn't listen to me. Even if something happens to her, you can't blame me, right?"

Xu Yan muttered "can't blame me", but in his heart he remembered tomorrow's newspaper headline: "Sanitation workers found an unknown female corpse in the wilderness, the deceased was a 17-year-old girl, the police offered a reward to the general public, if you know the clues, please contact ......"

Thinking of this, Xu Yan shuddered. He stretched out his hand, and the heavy little gold ingot in his hand suddenly appeared in front of him.

He gritted his teeth, but he made up his mind: "I have already received the favor of this beauty, and I should repay the favor." Even if I can't beat those hooligans, if I shout a few times from a distance, maybe I will scare them away? It was said on TV that criminals are very timid when they are thieves -- after all, they are a life, and if possible, they must do their best. ”

In this way, Xu Yan cheered himself up, and finally decided to follow him to have a look.

This sudden thunderstorm came and went quickly. On the street outside, the street surface is wet and low-lying after heavy rain, forming small puddles. Out of the KFC restaurant, Xu Yan raised his eyes and looked around, only to see the crowd on the street, but where did he see the trace of the girl? He was about to give up, suddenly saw a figure flashing in the distance, a yellow-haired figure flashed, Xu Yan immediately recognized the figure of this hooligan, took two steps to follow, and immediately saw more hooligans, and also saw the girl in front.

Xu Yan followed the hooligans from a distance, turning around the streets, and before they knew it, the crowd had gradually left the bustling urban road and came to a dilapidated old district called Xialuo District - because this area was about to be demolished, most of the residents had already moved away, so there were few people in this area, even the street lights were broken, and there were few people.

Seeing this, Xu Yan secretly complained: Sister, there are so many bright avenues in the urban area, why do you have to go to such a dark and dark block? Isn't this convenient for them to start?

He saw from a distance that the girl had walked into a compound, and the ** people followed suit. This compound is like an abandoned parking lot of a unit, there is no door number, and the iron gate has also been demolished and sold for scrap, and there is a black hole inside, and there is not even a street lamp. Xu Yan tiptoed to the gate of the courtyard and saw the person he was following from a distance—in fact, because they were too far away, he couldn't see them clearly, and could only see the figure in the distance, but the girl was dressed in white, and he could still recognize her figure even in the dark distance.

The ruffians were yelling at something, and the girl answered them, for it was too far away for he could not hear what they were saying—but he knew without listening, and it was expected that there was nothing new in saying "hand over the gold or you will look good" or something like that.

Xu Yan retracted his head, he was afraid that the police call would be heard by the ** inside, so he tiptoed out of the distance, took out his mobile phone and just dialed 110 three numbers, but heard a few screams suddenly sounded inside, Xu Yan's heart tightened: "Have you started to do it?"

The situation was urgent, and Xu Yan didn't care about making a phone call, so he ran over there, shouting as he ran: "I'm a policeman, don't move!"

"Comrades, go on! There are robbers in there, catch the robbers!"

Xu Yan stood at the door and kept yelling, he didn't know if it would work, he was anxious, for fear that the girl had been poisoned, and he looked at it again--he happened to be right with a person who came out of the courtyard.

"Ahh

"Wow-"

The two exclaimed at the same time, Xu Yan was so frightened that he staggered back a step, only to see clearly, the person who came out was slender and delicate, dressed in white, with long sleeves like clouds, wasn't it the girl who was talking to him in KFC just now?

Xu Yan exclaimed: "How could it be you?"

The girl's face turned pale, covering her chest, with a look of surprise that was discolored, she also saw Xu Yan clearly, and patted her breasts continuously, looking frightened: "It turned out to be a childe, and suddenly poked his head out by the door, I thought it was a ghost...... It really scared me to death. Why is Childe here?"

She looked left and right: "I heard Childe shouting that the police are coming-may I ask Childe, what is the police?"

"The police are what you call the government...... Leave this alone, how did you escape, those people didn't do anything to you, did they? Got hurt?"

Xu Yan asked eagerly, his anxious look on his face. Seeing his anxious look, the girl suddenly understood: the young man in front of her appeared here purely to worry about his own safety, he pretended to be the official and shouted, was that also to save himself?

"It turns out that this Xu Gongzi, he really came to save me?"

Thinking that the other party cared so much about herself, a warm current surged in the girl's heart, and her eyes when she looked at Xu Yan were also a lot warmer. She smiled lightly and curtsied and saluted, and said gently: "Gongzi Lao is worried, I'm fine, Gongzi doesn't have to worry." ”

"Oh, those rascals they didn't ...... you any way"

The girl interrupted Xu Yan with a light smile: "Don't worry, Childe, I act in my own way, and they are fine-in short, everything is fine, Childe doesn't have to worry." ”

Xu Yanhu looked at the girl in front of him suspiciously, but the girl smiled and walked out first: "Childe, let's go now?"

The two walked side by side, and walked back to the brightly lit bustling neighborhood, the girl walked all the way, looking around as if she was looking for something, Xu Yan couldn't help but ask her, "Are you looking for something?"

"I'm looking for an inn - well, a place for passers-by to stay......"

"Oh, you're talking about the hotel. Xu Yan casually pointed to several hotels on the side of the road: "Homeinn Binjiang, Jinjiang Hotel, these are all hotels that can be stayed." However, you only have gold and silver, so I'm afraid people won't accept it, right?"

"Don't worry, Childe, I also have the RMB you used. The girl magically conjured several purses in her hand, opened them and poured out all the money inside: "One, two, three, four...... Well, there are dozens of these red banknotes, I wonder if it's enough for a night's stay?"

Xu Yan was very surprised: "Enough is enough, but your wallets are ...... Where did you get all this money? I remember, you can't even take out a dozen dollars, can you?"

Xu Yanzheng was puzzled, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he lost his voice: "Could it be that these wallets just now belong to those hooligans?"

The girl smiled, with a little cunning in her smile: "Childe, I'm afraid you have misunderstood." The gentlemen were all good-hearted and good people, and when I told them about the difficulties in their pockets, they took out money to help me, and the gentlemen were righteous, but I was disrespectful, so I had to be ashamed of them—how do you call them scoundrels, son?"

Xu Yan laughed dryly: "I said it wrong, I am indeed a good person!" -- Those hooligans who do bad things will do good deeds and sponsor a poor girl? Although Xu Yan is a student who does not understand the world, he will not believe this kind of childish joke.

Since it was impossible, but their wallet appeared in the hands of the girl in front of them, the only possibility left was - could it be that in the moment of the moment, it was the girl who robbed those young and middle-aged ruffians, and not the other way around?

Xu Yan looked at the girl in front of him in surprise: How is this possible? The girl in front of her is slender and elegant, she should be more than one meter tall, but her weight will never exceed one hundred catties. Seeing that she was fair-skinned, delicate-skinned, delicate and beautiful—how could such a girl be the match of a grown man, let alone rob five or six people at the same time.

At the door of the Homeinn, the girl bowed to Xu Yan: "There is Lao Gongzi to lead the way, since we have arrived at the ground, we will not pass." ”

Xu Yan hastily waved goodbye to her, and the doubts in his heart were indeed too shocking, so that he was a little absent-minded. He walked back slowly, reminiscing about what had happened tonight as he went. He had an inexplicable premonition: his fate with that girl would not end here.

Xu Yan's inspiration was obviously very effective, and less than two minutes later, he heard someone behind him calling him, and when he looked back, it was indeed the girl, who was running towards him in a hurry.

Xu Yan greeted her: "Hey!"

The girl frowned, looked depressed, and looked very confused, she also said "hi" after learning from Xu Yan's appearance, but said: "Childe, the inn you introduced just now is a little troublesome, they want the same thing as me called ID card!"

"Uh, do you need an ID card to open a hotel room?

The girl said angrily: "Childe, how can this be the way it should be? I showed the road guide and the waist card, but they actually didn't recognize it, saying that they only need any ID card!

Xu Yan's mind "buzzed": Sure enough, his premonition came true, this girl really doesn't even have an ID card!

Because the series of shocks he had just received was too great, Xu Yan was already a little numb, and when he heard the news, he just let out a faint "oh" and asked, "Then, miss, why are you looking for me?"

"Childe, you are a local, familiar with the situation, can you introduce me to a hotel that does not require an ID card?"

"I'm afraid it won't work. All hotels require ID registration to check in, which is a regulation of the Ministry of Public Security......"

"Ministry of Public Security?"

"The public security is what you call the government—"

The girl nodded understandingly: "You have a lot of government offices...... But I know that on our side, the government also stipulates that the inn must register the guest's guide and receipt, but they actually don't recognize the road guide opened by our SX Road, which is really too bullying. When the day comes, I'm going to protest to the local government. ”

"Miss, this is the regulation of the Ministry of Public Security, it is the same all over the country, you are afraid that it will only be in vain if you look for the Public Security Bureau......"

"Hmph, if the local government doesn't care, then I'll find the local Suppression Division, or the local Elder Supervision Department to complain, I don't believe they don't care!"

There were too many strange terms in the girl's mouth, Xu Yan was confused when he heard it, and he asked: "Miss, since you don't have an ID card, you can't live in the hotel...... So what do you mean?"

The girl didn't speak, blinked a pair of big bright eyes, stared at him deeply, and her eyes contained infinite deep affection, waiting for the aspiring innocent young man to discover.

But our innocent young man is too dull, he stared at the girl for a while, seeing that the girl was silent, Xu Yan thought that the other party had nothing to say, he said sullenly: "Then, since you have nothing else to do, then let's leave here......"

The man in front of him was so blunt that he didn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, and the girl suddenly became angry--It's okay? Why did I stop you?

She originally hoped that the man opposite would be aware of the interest and take the initiative to invite herself to come to the door, and then she would politely refuse, but the man's attitude was very enthusiastic, and he invited him again, and he agreed to his invitation half-pushed and half-on-the-spot and went to the door to spend the night. But this incomprehensible man is so sluggish, just like that, he just leaves, does he really want this girl to stay on the street tonight?

"Well, don't go first," the girl said in a slur, a blush on her face, and she said expectantly, "I have something to ask for, uh, this...... I wonder if there is a vacant house in the Childe's house, can you rent it to me for a night?"

Xu Yan was stunned: "You want to find me to rent a house?"

Now that the words were spoken, the girl was able to let go, and she said generously: "Exactly, please allow me to spend the night, and I am willing to pay you your son." ”
