Zhou Zhenglong eats, drinks, prostitutes, and gambles outside every day, and Xinlan has become his money-making tool, and as soon as he goes home every day, he collects all the money that Xinlan has worked so hard to get; the next day he squanders it, and when he has no money, he loses his temper at Xinlan, and punches and kicks him at every turn. The first two years were fine, people saw that Xinlan was small, and she could still ask for one or two hundred a day, but now she is six years old, and there are more and more beggars who are three or four years old on the street, so there are fewer and fewer people who give alms to her, and sometimes she doesn't get a few coins in a day, Xinlan is more and more afraid, afraid that bad luck will come one day.

Xinlan shuttles through the crowd like a lonely ghost every day, her world has no blue sky, no green water, some are just forest-like copper walls, and some are just filthy and chaotic people. All she could breathe was what was left of the filthy crowd's breath, and the exhaust fumes from cars like a long line. Here, Xinlan has no relatives, no friends, just children and old beggars who have the same fate as herself. Listening to those who are a little older, missing arms and legs, she will one day be like them, with her hands and feet broken and still begging on the streets.

Xinlan believes. She was fully confident that the so-called cousin could do such a thing. But she was still too young to speak, let alone run, because her cousin said that she had been strangled to death by her biological parents in her lifetime. So she has nowhere to go, in Shenzhen, only he will give her a bite to eat, without him she will starve to death, if she dares to run, she will break her legs. Therefore, Xinlan can only wait for this day to come slowly, or maybe on that day, the Grim Reaper will come together.

One night, Xinlan was ordered by her cousin to go to the street to beg for money, and when he reached the door of a hospital at the east gate, she saw a half-dead boy of seven or eight years old lying in the middle of the road. Because her cousin repeatedly warned her, "Each one sweeps his own blood in front of the door, and repairs the frost on the tiles of others." But when Xinlan passed by him, she found that this little boy looked different, with a high nose, blue eyes, long eyelashes, and black curly hair was very good-looking, his body was full of blood, his face was pale and pale, his feet couldn't move, his calves were constantly oozing blood, and his hands were clutching helplessly on the ground; when he saw Xinlan turn his head to leave, he grabbed her legs with all his strength and begged, "Help me!" Although Xinlan was only six years old, she was used to seeing this kind of lame person on the street, so even if the boy's bloody hand held her foot, she was not frightened and screamed and ran away, she leaned down and said to him, "Shall I take you to the hospital!" The boy shook his head and said, "It's useless, it's useless, I just got thrown out of the hospital." ”

"What should I do, who beat you like this, your leg is still bleeding, how can I save you!"

"I used to be the same as you, I was forced to beg for money, now I am taller, I can no longer ask for money, now they force me to steal money, today I was found in a shop when stealing a guest's wallet, was beaten by the security guard and threw his right leg, I endured the pain and crawled back and begged them to save me, but they were so mad that not only refused to treat my injuries, but felt that I could get more money if I was crippled, but they were afraid that I would run away, so they simply did not do anything. If I didn't fix it, he broke my left leg and left me to fend for myself in the streets. I didn't want to die, so I crawled into the hospital in pain, and my blood was almost gone, but instead of saving me, they scolded me for soiling their floor, so they threw me here again. Listening to the boy's words, Xinlan cried for others for the first time in two years, she rolled up the boy's trouser legs, and her black, purple and blood-stained legs were displayed in front of her eyes, Xinlan burst into tears, her tears fell on the wound on the little boy's leg, and he suddenly screamed Xinlan was at a loss and said: "What to do, what should I do!"

"Police, now only the police can save me. ”

"This" Xinlan hesitated a little, because her cousin said that the police were all bad people, and they wanted to take children like her to prison, and every time she saw the police, they either beat or arrest people, so he even hid away from the security guards in camouflage uniforms, let alone go to see the police.

"What's the matter, don't you want to!"

Xinlan shook her head and said, "No, I'm afraid, my cousin said that the police are bad people, and they take us children to prison." ”

"Silly girl, your cousin lied to you, the police are good people, they arrest bad people like your cousin. ”

"Really, don't the police arrest little beggars like us?"

"Huh...... Although the boy's life was in danger, he was still amused by Xinlan's immature words, and he endured the pain and said: "Fool, how can you not do it!"

"Then I'll call the police right now and leave you alone. ”

"Silly girl! ”

"Anything else?"

"If you go like this, the police won't believe you, even if you believe that they won't necessarily come, only if you put me in front of them, they will believe that there is such a thing, but I don't know if they can save me or not! ”

So Xinlan carried the boy who was a head taller than herself to the police station 500 meters away, the boy was very thin, but he was still so difficult for Xinlan, who was also thin, Xinlan carried the boy step by step to the police station, in order to distract her attention, the boy asked her: "My name is Awang, what about you!"

"My name is Xinlan. ”

"I'm from Xinjiang, my parents died when I was very young, and my only relative, my grandfather, also died when I was four years old, and my uncle brought me here, saying how good it is here, I didn't expect it to be like this, what about you?"

"I don't know, my cousin said that I was strangled to death by my parents as soon as I was born, it was a nurse who saved me and raised me until I was four years old, and then my parents snatched me back and sent me here to beg, I don't know who my parents are, let alone where my home is. ”

"What mom and dad, what cousin, they treat you like this, they are not human, when I am healed, let's run away together, okay?"

"Run, where can we escape!" my cousin said that if he dared to run, he would break my leg. Xinlan's words were not finished, Zhou Zhenglong was already in front of them, the two patronized and spoke, and suddenly there was a person in front of them who didn't notice, and hit Zhou Zhenglong's stomach head-on, the two were rebounded back and fell to the ground, and Ngawang screamed in pain. Zhou Zhenglong didn't care about the nearby police station, grabbed Xinlan is two slaps, and he yelled loudly: "Stinky girl, it's not good to beg for money, come here to be a good person, why do you want to go? Why don't you go and beg for money, see how I will clean you up." ”

"Uncle Me"

"What am I, what am I, don't get out of here, be careful that I pluck your skin. Xinlan had to walk back in horror, and walked 100 miles away, when he was convinced that his cousin could not see her clearly, he hid behind the flowers and plants to look at Ah Wang, only to see that his cousin was talking to Ah Wang, she was afraid that her cousin would find out, so she hurriedly went to ask for money again.

Zhou Zhenglong saw such a lonely child and wanted to use him to beg for money, but when he learned that there were still people in charge of Ah Wang, and there was more than one, he had to walk away for fear of getting into trouble. After Awang used his last strength to crawl into the police station, he suddenly passed out, and the police in the station obviously saw a bloody child for the first time in the police station. I can't pretend to do anything anymore like on the street, so I even called a few hospitals, hoping that they can treat this child, but who will do the loss-making business, anyway, one sentence: "The child can be collected, but the money has to be paid by the police station." If a child's life is to be saved, it will cost several thousand, and if he wants to be cured, he doesn't know how much it will cost, who would be so kind! In the end, he had to send a few hundred yuan to the director of the social welfare institute, and only then did he send away a plague god, and the people of the family breathed a sigh of relief.
