"Ah......h

It was a slight collision sound and a girl's soft cry when a teenager and a girl collided inadvertently.

"I'm sorry. ”

The boy apologized faintly and hurried away.

The girl turned to look at the boy, wondering why he had bumped into herself, and suddenly the girl remembered something and exclaimed, and hurried away.

Got it.

The boy quietly touched his arms, and a girlish pink wallet lay there quietly.

This is the boy's purse? Of course not, it's the girl's thing.

Speaking of which, it's obvious, yes, this teenager is a thief who specializes in stealing other people's belongings to make a living.

He only steals, not robs, and although he has been discovered, he has never hurt anyone, but has left his stolen wallet and fled.

"Judging by the weight, there should be twenty silver coins, right?" the young man exhaled, twenty silver coins were enough for him to live for two months, even if he ate and drank a little better.

Don't look at him, he's not bad, and he's wearing a neat white shirt and black pants, this is a prop he uses to confuse others, that's it.

The boy is an orphan who can only steal, and he doesn't know anything except running fast and being familiar with the streets and alleys of the imperial capital.

In order to survive, he also went to learn words, and he was also very well-informed about various news.

"Now, will you wait a minute?" a lovely voice and a small delicate hand took the young man's slightly thin arm.

When the boy looked back, he found that it was a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old, with a black and silky high double ponytail, a white aristocratic long skirt that set off her jade-like skin, and a pair of pure blue eyes on her pink and lovely little face that he had never seen before.

It's not light blue or dark blue, it's pure blue.

"There's... What's the matter?" The boy is only fourteen years old, and it is when he is curious about the opposite sex, and when he sees a beautiful girl who is only a little younger than himself, he will naturally be subconsciously shy.

This black girl with a double ponytail is Vivi.

"There's one thing I want to ask you to come with me. Vivira stopped the boy and walked into a nearby deserted alley.

The young man who was being held felt so comfortable holding his hand, so he could only accept Vivi's pull in a daze and walked into the alley.

The streets outside are crowded with people, the cries are non-stop, and the desertion of the alleys is almost two worlds compared to the hustle and bustle outside.

"You're a thief, right? Can you return the wallet to the owner?"

He didn't dare to look at Vivi, he was afraid that he would see contempt and ridicule for himself in those pure blue eyes, and his feet even stepped away to escape from here, but one of his hands was tightly held by Vivi, so that he couldn't escape.

After many attempts, the boy's struggles did not let Vivi go, and in the end he had no choice but to give up.

"Is this what you want?" the boy took out a pink wallet from his arms and threw it at Vivi, "That's fine, can you let me go?"

Wei Wei accepted the wallet, but did not let go, but asked lightly: "Why are you doing this, if you don't have parents, at least at your current age, no one will refuse to hire you." ”

"Who would hire a thief to work for them? How could they hire me as a thief if they couldn't take precautions?" the young man smiled bitterly, his pretty face full of self-deprecation.

Ever since he chose to steal to keep himself alive, he was sure that he was destined to be rejected by others all the time, and no one would hire him, but if he wanted to live, he had to steal other people's belongings again, and after five or six years of this, it was impossible for anyone to trust him anymore.

"If you had a job, you wouldn't choose to steal, would you?"

"Isn't that a matter of course, how could I do that if I could live well!" said the boy, as he said as a matter of course, and then became lonely again, "but who would believe me. ”

It's a normal reaction, everyone is afraid of someone who has done something bad, and those fears can turn into ridicule, and they can turn into contempt, and even into an impulse to attack.

These behaviors can cause people who have done bad things to have low self-esteem, become autistic, and at some point even make them make the same mistake again, and then be feared again.

It's a vicious circle.

"Miss Ville, you're here. A young man with a large bag trotted over from the other side of the alley and stopped in front of Vivi, "We worked so hard to find you, last time you recovered the hidden package for us and caught the prisoner, and you disappeared before you could thank you." ”

In the face of the young man's thanks, Vivi just smiled cutely, and then excused himself, "It's just a small matter, it's nothing, Mr. Morburne." ”

"But it's a big deal for us, it's a package to be sent to a captain of the Imperial Palace, I didn't expect it to be hidden by the spies of the hostile Chamber of Commerce, if it weren't for you, our reputation would really be over." Morbourne said excitedly, "If you have any requests, just say it, as long as we can help, we will not refuse." ”

"Let this person go and work with you, starting with the basics. Vivi pushed the boy in front of Morburn, apparently wanting him to work in the Chamber of Commerce where Morburn was.

Morburne looked at the boy carefully and asked uncertainly, "Excuse me, are you the habitual thief?"

"Yes, it's me. Wenlai responded, instead of putting on the inferiority complex he had just faced Vivi, he had the same expression as Moore's hatred.

"If you do a job like mine, you can not only manage but also live a better job, but the act of stealing like before can't happen, can you do it?" Morburne tried to put on a serious face, but unfortunately it was not very successful.

"I can't eat, so I stole it, and if I can eat enough and do this kind of thing, then I really deserve to be caught, hanged and killed. ”

Wen Lai's eyes once again appeared in the inferiority complex that he had just faced Vivi, he knew how despised and discriminated against people like himself who hid in the dark, and if he could walk on the road openly, no one would let go of this hope.

Morburne took Wenlai's hand and said to Vivi, "Leave this kid to me, I'll take a good look at him." ”

"Well, I'm sorry for you. ”

Vivi also gave Wenlai two gold coins as living expenses, and the money was given by Isellie, so he didn't have a psychological burden to use it.

After saying goodbye to each other, Wen Lai followed Morbourne to the other side, and could still faintly hear their conversation when they were far away: "...... Can you really give me a job?"

"As the son of the president of the International Courier Chamber of Commerce, this is ......"

……

"How... That's grandma's money for medicine......" A young girl with tears in her eyes kept looking down on the street looking for her lost wallet, but she couldn't find it after walking around several times.

It was at this moment that she saw a long plain white dress.

"I'm sorry, I'm just looking for something. The girl apologized and tried to turn around and continue searching, but she was stopped.

"Is this what you're looking for?" a pink wallet was handed to the girl, and the familiar wallet suddenly made her overjoyed.

"Thank you! Thank you, I don't even know what to do without this. The girl bowed several times to Vivi, who was much shorter than her in front of her, and she could imagine how important this purse was to her.

"Didn't you just say that you were going to rush to buy medicine for grandma, why don't you go sooner?" Weiwei kindly reminded.

"Yes, yes, thank you! You must find me when you have time in the future!" the girl suddenly remembered that she was still in a hurry, bowed to Vivi one more time, and quickly ran towards the medicine store in the distance.

"Sword. ”

Vivi groaned softly, and then a short sword appeared in his left hand, and the cold wind and murderous aura enveloped the surroundings, highlighting his presence.

This is to deter many Xiao Xiao who want to snatch the girl's belongings in the dark, and let them know that this bulging little purse is not something they can do.

In the imperial capital, more than 20 silver coins can make a family of three live a good life for a month, and for those guys who feed the whole family without hunger, these money can make them enjoy themselves for a while.

That's why Weiwei will be high-profile at the first time, so as not to let the girl be hurt by others.
