Chapter 6: The Angel's Prayer

With this strange feeling of warmth, the little girl silently lit the wall with the match handed by Qi Lin.

Hey, the match was lit, and the bright flame swayed on the match, like a happy dancer, what a bright and warm flame it was, but with the light of this flame, the little girl finally saw Qi Lin's appearance clearly.

"This big brother's face is so ugly, even his father, who has been asleep for several days, is not so ugly, is he sick, I really hope he can get better soon!"

Seeing that Qi Lin, who had a very poor complexion, was still insisting on cutting ginger slices for frostbite for herself, the kind little girl prayed secretly in her heart.

As she prayed, the flame on the match suddenly jumped, and a strange light emanated from the flame, and this light shone directly on Qi Lin.

At the same time, Qi Lin, who had been enduring the pain of exhaustion of his mental strength, suddenly felt that his mind was clear, and at the same time, an unconcealable tiredness came to his heart.

"Why are you so sleepy all of a sudden?" Qi Lin tried to suppress the tiredness, but it was as if he hadn't slept for three days and three nights, and his eyelids became as heavy as lead.

Qi Lin's efforts only made him glance up at the little girl, and the strange light that appeared on the match in the little girl's hand like the light of hope.

"What's that!?" With this question, Qi Lin could no longer restrain his drowsiness and lay on the table and fell into a deep sleep.

Qi Lin, who fell asleep, did not know that in a hotel at the other end of the city, a middle-aged man with a calm face and a hunter's costume suddenly put down the wine glass in his hand at the moment when the match in the little girl's hand shone brightly.

When Qi Lin woke up, he found that it was already bright outside, and he had fallen asleep on the table for a whole night, and it stands to reason that Qi Lin should feel sore all over his body after lying on the table for so long.

But Qi Lin felt unusually comfortable at the moment, the most important thing was that his brain was now no longer painful at all, and the depleted mental power seemed to have been completely replenished after that night's sleep, at this moment Qi Lin had a sense of clarity in the best state, and that feeling of clarity made Qi Lin want to moan comfortably.

"No, it's so abnormal, how can this be?" Qi Lin touched his chin and recalled everything that happened yesterday with a little confusion.

"Little girl, where did the little girl who sold matches go?" Qi Lin suddenly got up from his chair and looked around, whether it was the opening of the Wanjie Supermarket yesterday or the two rats breaking into the house after that, it was a big deal, but Qi Lin remembered the little girl first.

Whether it was the light radiating from the match in the little girl's hand that seemed to be able to illuminate people's hearts, or the tearful eyes hanging on the girl's smiling face, or her frostbite-covered feet wrapped in the big slippers, they all left a deep impression on Qi Lin's heart.

Looking around a little, Qi Lin noticed that the bread and rice he had prepared yesterday were gone, and on the table was a portrait of a smiling little girl drawn out of a burnt matchstick.

The brushwork of this portrait is very immature, with a few simple strokes outlining the appearance of a little girl with long hair, and the simple smiling face even has a slight upward curve.

But when he saw this portrait, Qi Lin seemed to be able to see the little girl who was about to leave with the same smile on her face as the portrait, which was the pure and happy smile that a child should have.

"It's a pity that I haven't had time to ask her name and address yet!" Qi Lin secretly regretted a little, but he immediately adjusted his mentality, as long as he could get through the current difficulties, it was not very difficult to find someone in this not too big city.

Thinking of the difficulties in front of him, Qi Lin continued to take care of Bilodo, who was still asleep, while wondering what the two rats wanted to do when they arrived yesterday.

Obviously, in addition to stealing the money from the store, the main purpose of their arrival was the paper that the little mouse asked Bilorodo to press his fingerprint, and the paper that the eldest brother said seemed to be a contract.

As the dark side of the city, the rats are originally standing on the opposite side of the law, and they pay attention to force and profit, and things like contracts, which must be supported by the law to play a role, are obviously not prepared for the rats themselves.

The only place where the contract can be used is the official, and people like rats are generally very taboo to have contact with the official person.

At the same time, the old Bilodo is just an ordinary shopkeeper, and he can make the rat spend so much effort, and even use the contract to seek things, in Qi Lin's opinion, there is only Bilodo's small shop.

The biggest possibility is the inheritance contract, after all, Bilodo is not in the heirs, as long as he finds a relative who can't be related to him, and adds the contract of Bilodo's handprint, even the strictest sheriff can't find fault with it.

Reluctantly fed half a bowl of rice porridge smaller than Lodo, Qi Lin had already analyzed the next movements of the mice, not that Qi Lin was so powerful, but that the rats in this city had just developed into the embryonic stage of the underworld.

On Earth, even though Qi Lin has not been in contact with the real underworld, he can at least have a general understanding of their style of action through various TV series and literary works, and it can be said that the rats now play tricks that even third-rate screenwriters disdain to use when writing scripts.

Thinking about what he might have to face next, Qi Lin was relieved, anyway, he didn't have any idea about this small grain store.

Before opening the Wanjie Supermarket, he might still care a little, after all, Qi Lin still needs to rely on this small shop to survive, but now that he has opened the Wanjie Supermarket, he can spend some money to buy some handicrafts and put them in this small city, it must be a peerless treasure, don't be too greedy, it is not too much of a problem to become the richest man in this city just by buying and selling.

However, although he didn't care, Qi Lin was not willing to give up Bilodo's things to his enemies.

And now that Bilodo is close to running out of oil, according to Qi Lin's temperament, if there is a vengeance, he should take revenge as soon as possible, and he will now start to think about how to clean up the grain store owners who are still harmful to the rats.

"The most important thing is to have the capital for revenge. After Qi Lin settled down Bilodo, he did not hesitate to cover his forehead with his right hand.

It was still the familiar hall, and at this moment, Qi Lin glanced at the holographic projection of his right hand.
