Xu Chenxi pulled him by the collar, turned him around, facing him, then stretched out his hand and asked, "Bring it." ”

The kid twisted his neck and looked to the side: "I don't understand what you're talking about. ”

Andora hurriedly walked over and persuaded: "Don't do this, he didn't hurt me, you let him go quickly, otherwise you will say that you are bullying children." ”

There were already many people around who cast questioning glances at Xu Chenxi. Xu Chenxi ignored it, looked up and asked Andora: "Did you want to buy a lock just now?" ”

Andora nodded stunned and pointed to the iron bridge not far away: "Aren't you going to put a lock on it?" ”

Xu Chenxi's chin raised towards the pocket of her clothes and asked, "Look at your wallet." ”

Andora felt in her pocket and found that it was empty, so she reacted, walked up to the child, pinched his face, and searched out a purse from his pocket.

The child was still quibbling and calling for help to the people around him: "Help me, I don't know them." ”

Andora snorted coldly and raised the wallet in her hand: "Not only do you not know us, you don't know this wallet yet, do you?" You say, what's in there? ”

The child stammered, "Rich...... There is a card...... And ......"

"And my picture!" Andora pulled open her purse and took out a selfie of herself inside: "How can you have a photo of me in your wallet?" ”

The child began to bow his head and beg for mercy: "I'm sorry, I just wanted to be crooked for a while, my brother is sick, but he has no money for treatment, so he steals your wallet in a daze." ”

Andora looked at Xu Chenxi and motioned for him to translate, Xu Chenxi repeated the child's words in Chinese with an expressionless face, Andora was speechless, this kind of excuse is outdated, okay? Not only does Xu Chenxi not believe it, but a soft-hearted person like her will not believe this kind of statement that the family lacks money for treatment and comes out to steal.

After the surrounding onlookers heard him speak, they thought that Xu Chenxi and the others were bullying the child, but they realized that it was the child who stole things first.

So someone shouted in English: "Call the police, let the police deal with it." ”

When the child heard this, he had already quietly admitted his mistake, jumped up at once, and said excitedly: "I can't call the police, after I report to the police, my brother will have no one to take care of him!" ”

Andora pressed him on the shoulder, calmed him down, and asked in simple English, "Where is your brother?" ”

He looked at Andora with some wariness, his mouth closed tightly, refusing to speak.

Andora shook her head, sighed, took out her phone, and said, "Then let's call the police." ”

The child hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop her movements, looked behind her, and glanced at Andora, Andora saw that he didn't want Xu Chenxi to hear, so she took the child's collar from Xu Chenxi's hand, and waved her hand at Xu Chenxi: "Husband, you go buy a lock first, I'll wait for you here." ”

Xu Chenxi: "......" is the speed of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, is it a bit fast?

He thought about it for a while, and felt that there were so many people around, let alone a child, and he couldn't be a demon, so he walked to the place where the lock was sold, and turned around and said, "If there is anything, you can shout loudly, and don't follow him casually." ”

Andora waved at him impatiently: "Okay, okay, you can go quickly." ”

After the child saw Xu Chenxi leaving, his azure eyes purred around a few times, and Andora stopped him first: "Don't you want to be careful, if I find out that you lied to me, I will definitely have a way to let the police catch you." ”

She pointed to the surveillance camera under the street lamp next to her: "Look, that camera takes a clear picture of you, if you escape, I will report the crime directly, and the police will come to see this camera, and then it will be easy to find you." ”

The child hung his head in disappointment and said slowly, "My brother is in the secret base, and he is sick, so he can't get out." He jerked his head up, his eyes shining, "I can take you to see him." ”

Andora repeated: "Secret base? Just you two little kids, and a secret base? ”

The child shook his head: "No, we are an organization, and we all live in a secret base. ”

Andora smiled, "Okay, then you can take me there." ”

The child saw Xu Chenxi hurriedly buy the lock, walked quickly to this side, and threw down a sentence: "Azusa Street, I will wait for you there at ten o'clock tonight, but don't bring anyone else, I will take you to see my brother at that time." ”

Then, taking advantage of Andora's slackness, he pulled his collar back from Andora's hand, spread his legs and ran.

Andora didn't pay attention, and when he came to his senses, he had already run five meters away, and waved his little thumb at him, as if to say a word.

Xu Chenxi frowned, handed the lock in his hand to Andora, looked at the child's distant figure, and asked, "Just let him go?" ”

Andora took the lock and said nonchalantly, "Hey, come out and play, don't let some little things spoil the scenery, come, let's go to the padlock." ”

Xu Chenxi looked at Andora's back as she strode away suspiciously, and always felt that things were not so simple.

At night, the two changed to a hotel, this time staying in a suite, Xu Chenxi let Andora live in the master bedroom, and he slept in the second bedroom. As soon as Andora returned to the room, she said that she was very sleepy, and after taking a quick shower, she said goodnight to Xu Chenxi, and then ran into the room and closed the door.

Xu Chenxi looked at her closed door for a long time before slowly walking back to the second bedroom, lying on the bed, looking at the ceiling.

Soon after, he heard the sound of the door opening next door, and he could hear that he deliberately lowered the sound, and because of the carpet on the floor of the suite, Xu Chenxi didn't hear footsteps, but then he heard the sound of the door of the room quietly opening and closing.

Andora tossed and turned on the bed for a while, feeling that Xu Chenxi had been in the second bedroom for a while, she quietly got out of bed, changed into civilian clothes, put on another coat, and then quietly opened the door, walked to the door of Xu Chenxi's room, put her ear on the door, and listened to the sound inside.

After listening to it for a while, she felt that Xu Chenxi should have fallen asleep, because there was no sound inside, she breathed a sigh of relief, stood on tiptoe again, slowly walked to the door, opened the door softly, slipped out, and then quietly closed the door.

The moment the door closed, the door of the second bedroom opened, and Xu Chenxi stood at the door of the second bedroom, looking at the closed door meaningfully, and after thinking for a while, he followed.

Andora took a taxi to Azusa Street, and before she could get out of the car, she felt that there was a big difference between this place and the place where she walked during the day. During the day, she saw Los Angeles, a bustling, charming, drunken metropolis, full of vitality.

At the moment, she looked around, the graffiti on the walls, the cigarette butts everywhere on the ground, and the wine bottles lying all over the trash can, which looked not the same world as the Los Angeles during the day.

She was still a little hesitant, not knowing whether to tell the driver to turn around, and suddenly saw a child in front of her, wearing a beret, wearing a pair of suspenders, looking at the car with an expectant face, Andora recognized it at a glance that it was the child in the afternoon, he looked specially dressed, although the clothes were still very old, but clean, with the beret, it looked full of energy.

After she settled the bill, she opened the door and got out of the car, and the little boy's eyes lit up and he ran towards her: "My princess, you are here!" ”

Andora: "?? Princess? ”

The little boy took her hand and walked forward, saying, "I came back in the afternoon and introduced you to my brother, and he said that you must be a beautiful and kind princess, and he is looking forward to seeing you." ”

Andora laughed, she didn't do anything, she just didn't pursue him further, she just let him go, he actually put such a big hat on himself.

She obediently followed the boy, and some of the black people who passed by, when they saw Andora, the yellow-skinned girl, whistled playfully, and some even wanted to come forward to hook up, but when they suddenly saw the vicious eyes of the little boy next to her, they were deflated and did not continue to step forward.

After passing through a small alley, the eyes were cheerful, and what appeared in front of Andora's eyes was a cover area like a domestic live player CS, each cover area was rudimentarily built with a turn of the head to build a small house, and the doors of the houses were so low that Andora had to bend down to get in.

The little boy dragged Andora into one of the little vaulted houses, and as soon as she entered, Andora saw a thin little boy lying on a bed made of old quilts on the ground, his eyes also blue, but somewhat listless and dull.

The little boy pointed to the man on the bed and said, "My princess, you see, this is my brother, George. ”

Andora asked, "Your name isn't Peppa, is it?" ”

The little boy asked suspiciously, "No, my name is Peter, why should I be called Peppa?" ”

Andora sneered: "Hahaha nothing, you talk nonsense to me." ”

She walked up to George, slowly crouched down, and looked at the little boy whose face was fifty or sixty percent similar to Peter's, and felt a little uncomfortable.

Until just now, she thought that Peter was lying to her, and she didn't believe that Peter really had a younger brother who couldn't afford to be sick, so she had to go to the kidnapping to make ends meet.

George sat up slowly, coughed a little excitedly, and his pupils dilated: "Oh, this lady, this is the beautiful princess my brother said, right?" ”

Andora felt a hint of wetness in her eyes, nodded, reached out and touched George's head, and said softly, "Hello, little prince." ”

George's cheeks were slightly red, his eyebrows were raised, and he gave her a big smile.
