There was a small crescent moon hanging in the dark sky, the moon was very faint, there was not a street lamp in the silent village, there was no light from the houses, there was darkness all around, it was the dead of night, only the crickets and the chicks could be heard, it was late at night, and everyone had fallen asleep.

It's a village on the outskirts of the city, and it's not a wealthy village, so not many people come here to steal money and rob it, and people don't have the idea of burglary, because they don't have much money themselves, let alone someone else.

Xu Hongchuan walked quietly in the village with a flashlight, and he would stop and observe every house when he walked to it, but none of them made him feel appropriate.

As he walked, he felt that someone was staring at him behind him, he quickly turned around and found that there was a pair of very bright eyes staring at him in the grass not far from the dark.

He felt that the person who was looking at him now was a ghost, even though he was so hungry that he had no strength, he still kept running towards the front, he didn't dare to look back, he was afraid of being eaten by a ghost.

But he ran for a long time, and suddenly he felt that something was wrong, and he didn't feel the ghost chasing after him at all, and he stopped and looked back in great bewilderment, and found that the eyes were still far away, and he wondered very much, why didn't the ghost come after me? So, with this curiosity, he ran to the front of those eyes again.

But when he was about to run into the bush, the bush suddenly moved, and then he saw a cat turn and run, and in a moment the cat was gone.

"Cao Nima, it turned out to be a cat, I thought it was something, it scared Lao Tzu!"

He doesn't know if his cry was heard by others, but he is now determined to do what he wants to do, and he has no way to turn back, because he has no way to live except stealing, and he will die on the street, he has no shelter, his parents are dead, his only grandparents have also cut off relations with him because of his old age, no one wants to take him in, even his best friend quarreled with him that day and separated, he was alone, feeling both desperate and confused.

"People are doing it, the sky is watching!" he often remembered in his ears.

But his heart was in great pain, he didn't want this sentence to linger in his ears, he always wanted to keep the evil in his heart, but this word kept ringing in his ears, it upset him, he would sometimes stand still and think, two different hearts wanted to make his spirit almost collapse.

But there is no way, if he doesn't steal money now, he's going to starve to death, so he has to get some money anyway.

He walked for a long time, and finally saw a house that satisfied him. The house has a total of three floors, and there is a window in the middle of the stairs from the first floor to the second floor, this window is on the side of the house when viewed from the outside, the height is not very high, and it is estimated that you can climb up with some high things on the pad.

"That's it!" he decided.

The reason why he came to this village is because the economy here is not very developed, and the villagers themselves live a miserable life, so no one thinks about how to prevent theft, and no one has heard of a thief coming here to steal before.

After quarreling and separating from his good friend that day, Xu Hongchuan has been walking on the path in a daze, he is not only hungry, but also worried, he is afraid that those people will come to him to settle accounts after his affairs are known, and the landlord of the hotel he rented is not willing to take him in, so he has no place to live, he walks on a very remote road, but there is not even a small shop in this kind of place, so he has to carefully come to a crowded place to make sure that there are no people around to buy things in the small shop.

After gambling with Dong Hao that day, he took everything to the bank to exchange money, some valuable clothes and everything was changed, and even the sports car was sold, but he still lost everything, and he was already penniless at that time.

Because Xu Hongchuan lives in a high-end hotel, there is no fixed residence, the hotel people saw that he couldn't pay the room fee, so they kicked him out, now he has no place to live, he walks aimlessly on the street every day, at night he sleeps where the bench is always a bench, there are several days of continuous heavy rain, he doesn't even have an umbrella, the rain falls on his lying body, the wind outside is particularly strong, blowing him shivering, he can't bear such pain, he is cold, hungry and thirsty.

But soon, he found that he still had some change left in his bank card, he used the only money left to buy a few buckets of instant noodles, he came to a remote mountain, wanted to find a dilapidated house in which no one lived, walking, he saw a thatched house, as soon as he saw this house, he jumped up excitedly, "There is such a luxurious house in the world!" It is estimated that if someone hears this, he will immediately die of laughter on the street.

He lived in this warm and comfortable thatched house, although the thatched house is simple, but it is very comfortable to lie down, it is not a difference from the hard bench, and he can also hide from the wind and rain, it is simply a warm haven, at least he can sleep for a while at night, he has been using instant noodles for a few days to make a living, but the instant noodles he bought are only enough for him to eat for a few days, and it didn't take long for the noodles to be eaten up, his stomach began to empty again, and he kept screaming, he began to be sad again after being happy for a few days, the money in the bank card has all disappeared, and he can't make a living, he doesn't know what to do。

He had no other way but to steal money and rob it.

"Why! Why do I have to go back to my old life! Lao Tzu doesn't want to steal money, Lao Tzu doesn't want to rob! Why!" his eyes filled with tears, and he raised his head and shouted loudly to the sky, echoing in the empty valley.

Xu Hongchuan lay in the thatched house in pain, recalling his past glory and today's cowardice, thinking that at the beginning, he was wearing brand-name clothes, smoking cigars, driving an open-top BMW, living a good life every day, every day someone sent him a lot of money, he did not worry about food and clothing, and he also had a prominent reputation, he seemed to be high, he was like a gambling god in the eyes of people, and then look at now, a tattered dusty rag shirt, both legs are about to rot, don't think about smoking at all, don't talk about it, even being able to live is a problem, he has long lost his reputation, and it is estimated that he is known to be a thousand things, he is estimated to be notorious now, and the comparison between the past and the present is completely two different experiences.

He eventually decided to go out on the street to grab money.

After he came to the street, he saw a woman wearing an emerald green bracelet on her hand, the bracelet was very beautiful, the woman was staring at the mobile phone screen, did not notice behind herself, Xu Hongchuan looked around, the people around looked down at the mobile phone, did not notice him, he tiptoed to the back of the woman, successfully snatched the bracelet on the woman's arm, and then ran like a mouse, but the woman did not catch up, he did not look in a hurry, she just screamed in surprise, and the passers-by around him were not nosy。

After running away, he felt that he was safe, so he sold the bracelet to the jewelry store, but the people in the jewelry store said that the bracelet was a fake, a fake, and could not be sold for much money, at most a few hundred yuan, which made him really happy.
