"What can I do here? I don't know my life here, I only have five dollars left, where do I sleep at night, what if I can't eat?" I thought nonsense, my heart still a mess. But no matter how anxious you are, you still have to face the reality in front of you.

I thought about it, and I went to have a meal first. I went to a restaurant and asked for five dollars for noodles a night. When the noodles were served, I was dumbfounded, only to see a small bowl about five centimeters in diameter containing a few chopsticks of noodles, with a few green vegetables and some green onions floating on it.

"Hey, what a disaster!" I sighed heavily, and ate the bowl of noodles with five times divided by two. But where do you go after eating? If you don't go anywhere, just go around. I was scurrying around like a headless fly.

Walking and walking, I came to a prefabrication yard. At that time, it was already dark and the prefabrication yard was still lit up. Neat floor slabs are lined up there. In front of the floor slabs are prefabricated cement tubes, one by one like soldiers.

"It's getting late, I should go to bed," I thought, "and you're going to get a little warmer in the bucket, and there's no one in the prefabrication anyway, so I'll just go in and try it." ”

I found a couple of attached cement buckets and got into them, and it felt okay. In order to be afraid of the cold, I blocked the two ends with two smaller cement slabs, and found a lot of dry weeds on the side of the road.

"It's comfortable," I thought, "but I'm glad I came in thick clothes, and the cement slab was a little cooler, but it was better than being frozen outside." With that in mind, I lay down with my clothes. As soon as I closed my eyes, I heard the sound of chaotic footsteps not far away.

"Someone!" I immediately became alert, "is it that the owner of the prefabrication factory knows that I am sleeping here and has come to drive me away?" From the sound of footsteps, it can be concluded that there should be no less than four people.

When they seemed to have come to the cement bucket where I was sleeping, they suddenly did not leave, but sat on the floor and talked about the day. I only heard a hoarse voice say, "It's bad luck today, I didn't get anything." "yes, I've never been so unlucky. The other chimed in.

The hoarse voice continued, "We used to step on a good point, but who knew that the anti-theft measures were strengthened-" The other continued: "Anyway, we are lucky to be able to walk out of that building safely-"

The conversation between the two of them had just ended, when they suddenly heard an unfamiliar voice screaming. The other two hurried over to ask why. The man looked at the cement buckets I was sleeping in and laughed like Columbus had discovered the New World:

"Good!good!" "What's good?" the other two asked. The man pointed to the cement bucket (I guess) and continued, "Brother, you see these cement buckets are connected together, and the two ends are blocked again, maybe someone is sleeping in them." Let's get that guy out and see if we can get some oil?"

When he said this, I was scared into a cold sweat, and I just wanted the person who was called "brother" to say something against it. But the man said casually: "Then let's uncover it." With that, they removed the cement slab.

I had nowhere to hide, when I was pulled out by the men: "What are you doing?" one of them asked loudly. "Nothing. Homeless, nowhere to live, sleep here. “

"Do you have any money?" "Dude, if I had money, would I have ended up like this?" I said pitifully as I looked at a few hooligans.

When one of them saw me like this, he said to the "eldest brother": "Forget it, eldest brother, look at his poor and sour appearance, how can he have any money for us?" The eldest brother seemed to be convinced, and was about to leave, but he didn't want the other younger brother to look at me and say, "Big brother, you see that suit he is wearing is very good, let's pick it up." ”

"Dude, it's so cold, please don't take off my clothes. "I almost pleaded, almost kneeling to them.

The little brother scratched his head with his hand, thought about it and said, "That's easy to do." Look at this dress on me, it's not bad. How about we change?" said the man, and the man came to take off my clothes.

I broke free and refused to give in, and I was pulled by the arms of the other two, and I took off the suit that my mother had specially selected for me to make for me. I had no choice but to put on that little brother's old clothes. I really want to cry without tears!

The little brother put on my suit, threw his old jacket at me, and left the prefabrication yard with a few other accomplices.

"It's not safe in this place," I thought, "maybe a few more people will come, and it's hard to say if they're eight essences." Let's find another place to sleep. With that in mind, I left the prefabrication yard and walked outside.

I came to a very deserted place again. To my surprise, I saw a dilapidated house in the weeds. The house was a low bungalow, but only three walls remained. I don't know if the other wall was torn down, or if it collapsed on its own, leaving some ruins and ruins.

There is a small window on the back wall, which is filled with cold air from time to time. I hurried over. There was just a straw mat inside, and burnt ashes. "There must be someone who, like me, has no choice but to live here. "I think.

So, taking advantage of the moonlight, I pulled the straw mat to the wall and put it in the corner. I sat down on the straw mat, put my arms on my knees, bowed my head, and fell asleep.

Maybe I was frightened, maybe I was too sleepy, and on such a cold day, I fell asleep in a daze.

In the middle of the night, I woke up from the cold, shivering. I remember when I was in school, I heard the teacher say that exercise can increase calories, so why don't I exercise?"

"One-two-three-four-five-six-seven-eight, two-two-three-four-five-six-seven-eight; three-two-three-four-five-six-seven-eight, four-two-three-four-five-six-seven-" At this time, the slightly mutilated moon had not yet reached the middle of the sky, and the wind and grass were blowing, making a rustling sound.

"What time is it today?" a question flashed through my mind. I stopped and counted the time carefully. As I counted it, I couldn't help but feel gloomy. Because it happened to be my birthday.

What kind of birthday was that! It was my eighteenth birthday! A birthday that marked the beginning of adulthood! It was like this? No one to accompany it, no one to bless it, so cold? Mother must have remembered.

When I thought of my mother, who was industrious and kind, and who had regarded me as a pearl in the palm of my hand since childhood, my heart became even heavier, and I didn't care about the cold, so I walked back to the house, and cowered in the corner of the wall, and fell asleep again in the nightmare of the gangsters.
