"I ......"

The words of the black mist were like a soft rope, strangled around Jiu Yao's neck, not threatening but close to suffocating.

"Although I may not be qualified to say anything, but seeing your expression, that kind of look, made me unconsciously make a move beyond the rules, I just want to ask you one thing, this is really... Don't be in a hurry to answer me, I said earlier that I want to invite you to a show. ”

A large mirror appeared on the table, and among them was Yelin, who had fallen into a hallucination.

.................................

"Hey, look at that beggar, is he the one who has won the favor of the Empress, I heard that he will be married to the Empress not long after. ”

"No, is this the luckiest beggar? But why, isn't he about to become the head of a country, and why is he still ...... in the streets?"

"Hehehe, the lord of a country, it's just shit luck, our empress, you don't know, I don't know if you have watched some performance of those foreigners' opera troupe recently, on a whim. ”

"Alas...... I don't know what will happen on the day of the Empress's wedding, I'm looking forward to it......"

At this moment, the beggar's eyes are vigilantly staring at the crowd that comes and goes and points at him, he is like a rat in the sewer, and once the rat in the sewer is exposed to the light, it faces the road... It's quite possible to go straight to hell!

There is no escape.

I don't know how many pairs of eyes are watching me, first say whether I can escape from this city that hides countless depravity, darkness, and dirt under the appearance of prosperity, even if I succeed in escaping, where can I go, I heard that there is an arid desert outside, a barren land.

The city, known as Fengqusha, is one of the few places in the desert where life exists, and it is just a filthy sewer rat in this bustling city.

Rats should stay in dark corners, trying their best to survive in the cracks.

I don't know if it was a coincidence or an intention, it was still in the dark corners of the city, and as usual, he cautiously stared at the crowd of people coming and going on the street, looking for his target.

A goal that can be 100% successful but will not be entangled for too long.

This kind of city is under the rule of the sick empress, and nine out of ten of the guards are the same as the empress.

If you are targeted by those guards who eat official food, have no worries about food and clothing, and are nurtured by the empress's stupid words of love and justice.

Then it is ridiculous that you must fight to the death with this mouse of yourself for the sake of love and justice.

It was on the edge of the city, but there was a road to the market in the east of the city, and I heard that the empress seemed to be holding some kind of meeting there today, so the crowd was hurrying there.

This is a carnival of rats, in the hurried crowd, those big rats are like fish in water, and today's harvest can even make their year better

The rats had already been prepared, a set of clean clothes that were not shabby, a bottle of expired but good enough perfume to hide their rotten smell, and finally a gentleman's hat that had already been somewhat discolored to block their dirty hair.

They put on the disguise of "normal people" and used their skill to navigate the crowd, and in a short time there were several more careless hapless people in their pockets.

But he can't, he's only 12 years old, because he has been starving for a long time and looks very thin, there are no disguises, there are no "smart" means, this little mouse wants to live, he can only rob, he can only steal, and the goal... Also appeared!

A little girl holding a sugar gourd and jumping in the crowd.

The little mouse had his eye on her because of the golden color that appeared from time to time in the corner of her pocket under its jump!

Once the goal is set, the rest requires patience, and what the little girl doesn't know is that in the dark corner, a pair of eyes that have been hungry for a long time but have extremely calm eyes are staring at her.

Patience and carefulness are one of the most important things for a mouse to live, and those eyes followed the little girl for a long time.

Finally, outside a noble clothing store, the man who had been following the little girl stopped, obviously with a child with sugar stains on the corners of his mouth, it seemed a little inappropriate to enter such a high-end place, and after saying something to a woman who looked like a girl's sister next to him, the man walked into the store alone, and the woman took the girl to a small vendor full of Tang people not far away.

Just as the little girl's gaze wandered over the dazzling candy man, the woman pulled out her wallet and was communicating something with the stall owner, and he moved!

Swift and silent.

A dirty hand grabbed the sumptuous purse, bursting with a force that did not match the thin body, while the other reached into the little girl's pocket and grabbed it hard.

Hard and familiar texture, the corners of the little mouse's mouth showed an excited smile, and his eyes were still full of calm and vigilance, and he kicked on the car that had been hung with sugar people for some years.

When encountering this, the first reaction of any woman must be to scream, and the scream will attract the attention of everyone on the road, once those eyes are focused on her mouse...... It's hard to guarantee that there won't be any nosy people chasing you.

He kicked over the car not to distract himself, but to buy time for his escape, and the direction in which the car was reversing was the little girl whose eyes were still watching the candy man.

Of course, the position was calculated by him, and it was not because he had any remaining kindness that would not hit the little girl.

But if there is a human life, or a little girl who is missing an arm or leg, because today is the day of an important gathering of the Empress, and there is such a bloody incident, then the guards will definitely pursue it to the end.

But if it is only a few who are frightened and lose some money, it is very likely that in order to ensure that there are enough people to maintain order at the meeting, it is likely that only one or two guards will be sent or the matter will be postponed altogether.

However, in order to prevent any accidents, the little mouse only took out a few gold coins from the wallet, but the stacks of gold tickets did not move, and when his body was about to enter the dark alley, he threw a precise and elegant arc and fell into the arms of a frightened woman.

Looking at the small bag full of gold coins, a trace of excitement flashed in the little mouse's eyes, but he still kept calm, and the more moments like this, the more vigilant he became.

But in this world, there is often something to be afraid of.

"Stop, thief! you can't run away!"
