Whoa, whoa......
Funeral Heart changed direction from a corner of Slum Market Street, and staggered towards the sink. Whew! Pick up a handful of cold water and pat your face vigorously.
He didn't notice that next to the sink stood a barefoot boy in a broken gray vest. The boy stared at the big round eyes, thin and thin, holding a notched porcelain bowl in his hand, and his black mud-covered fingers tightly pinched the lips of the porcelain bowl. The standing posture is shaky, and the atmosphere does not dare to breathe.
"Poof! Phew, phew. He spat into the pool, and felt refreshed after washing his face. He shook his hair, and the last thought of washing his hair was to forget it. Turn around and take steps to leave.
"Uncle ......"
The weak male voice stopped the funeral with a shout.
"Huh?" He stopped and turned back with a slightly dazed look.
“……”
"What's the matter?"
"You have, 1 S$...... Can you give to me? The ugly half of the boy's cheeks twitched, and his eyes drooped and blinked.
Hearing this, a smile easily bloomed on his face with a tense expression. He walked up to the boy and crouched down, looking mysteriously. Then he asked, "Why 1 new coin?" ”
"I, I want to use it to buy a piece of bread......"
"Where's your family, kid?" Funeral heart squinted his eyes, and asked the boy without saying a word, and there was some kind of commanding domineering in his voice.
"My dad was in the defense army and didn't come back to see me for years. Mom said she was going to remarry and go to Uncle Ungo, and she didn't want me anymore. The boy blinked with his head down, his eyes staring at the bottom of the empty bowl with a blurred reflection in the white.
The smile on his face froze, and he said softly to the boy, "The price of bread is S$5, and the bread with cream and shredded fruit will be doubled for S$10." But instead of a $5 piece of dry bread, wouldn't it be better to spend $5 for breakfast or buy 3 crispy scones? He said it carefully, for fear of missing a single thing.
"Uh-hu......h," the boy replied in a low voice, and he sighed from disappointment to the extreme, and prepared to leave. It seems that for a while and a half, you have to hold your stomach to get through.
"Oh, look." Funeral Heart's eyes flashed sharply, as if he had sensed something from it. So he hurriedly stopped the boy, held out an index finger and attracted his attention.
The boy lowered his head, staring timidly at the fingers of the dead heart.
"Look at Ang, there's nothing, right?" With a mysterious smile on his face, he showed his hands to the boy, and specially asked him to check the back of his inspection hand in the middle. Empty-handed, nothing.
"Hmm." The boy replied honestly.
Swish!
In the blink of an eye, I saw that the palms of the two hands in front of the boy crossed at the moment, and a new coin with a face value of 1 yuan was conjured out of thin air from the back.
A genuine one denomination worth 1 SGD.
What a temptation for a boy! But he was deeply trying to prevent his greedy thoughts from growing, and the smile of joy and pain remained on his face.
"Don't blink, look carefully." Fu Cheng got carried away and said to the boy, as if he was afraid that he would not find his flaws.
"Hmm." The boy was engrossed, scrutinizing his palms.
Then, Burial Heart blocked the straight 1 piece of new coin with the palm of his front hand and the back of his hand, and shook it mysteriously twice in front of the boy, as if he was quietly casting a mysterious magic in the name of magic. He then changed his palm movement to a fist, and slowly separated the two fists.
"In which one?" The boy couldn't hide his joy, and his voice trembled.
"Guess what?" Funeral heart deliberately teased him and asked.
"Hmm...... This one on the right? As he spoke, the boy stretched out his hand and pointed out, for he was standing in the opposite direction from the Burial Heart.
"Really?" Funeral Heart watched the boy's reaction and grinned at him. Looking further down, he slowly opened the fist of his left hand, but the palm of his hand was empty.
"Huh? That...... It must be on the left! The boy smiled happily, his eyes sparkling.
As soon as the boy's suspicious voice fell, Fuxin opened the fist of his right hand, but the result was the same as the palm of the other hand, empty and nothing.
"No, it's gone...... "Now it's okay, the 1 new coin is missing from both of his palms. Seeing this, the excited look on the boy's face gradually drifted away with the wind.
"Haha, here we are!" I couldn't close my mouth happily, and I suddenly pulled back the gloomy atmosphere. He turned the back of his hand lightly, and in an instant, he brought out a brand new coin with a face value of 5 yuan!
You can see that he has the new coin sandwiched between his middle and index fingers.
"Uncle, you are so amazing!" The boy almost clapped his hands in applause, his eyes shining with childish joy.
"Huh. Uncle still has something to do, so let's go first. Funeral heart shrouded the boy with an amiable gaze.
He didn't say anything more, just pulled the five dollars through the boy's arm and stuffed them tightly into his palm instead of the porcelain bowl. He touched the boy's nimble little head again, although it looked like he hadn't washed his hair for a long time, and then got up and left in one go.
"(Uncle) goodbye, thank you Uncle!" The boy thanked the figure who had disappeared into the crowd with great relief, and did not forget to bow deeply and politely.
Of course, the voice behind the boy could no longer be heard.
Finally, the boy placed the begging porcelain bowl quietly by the table of the sink. Holding the hot $5 coin, he walked in the direction of a breakfast shop or a scone shop.
.
On the square road.
"Where the hell is that guy?"
Ou Lai. Holding the photo of the funeral heart in his hand, he walked up to the stone bridge and stood for a moment, and then grabbed his hair and walked down quickly.
He carefully checked every person he passed by, and even went around and pointed to the photo and asked directly if he knew him. But the answer he got was almost exactly as expected, no one knew the burial heart; No one has ever seen a burial heart.
Since the outbreak of the infection war, the city (Heron) has almost never been disturbed by the wave of infection from the outside world, except for the daily decrease in population. Even those who can take on the form of a human are rarely seen in this ever-larger city......
