The gentleman found his wallet missing at the ticket gate, which contained the train ticket he had already bought. The fat gentleman found that his ticket was missing, and immediately began to scold, seeing that the train was about to start, the gentleman was even more anxious.

At this point, Wood followed his old routine and returned the wallet to the gentleman. But what Wood was waiting for in the heavy snow was not an excited thanks, but an even worse beating. After the other party gave Wood a slap, he began to scold again: "You little ghost, you must be the one you stole my wallet, your tricks are outdated, I have seen a lot." Take advantage of the fact that I don't have time to talk nonsense with you, hurry up, otherwise I will call the police and let the police arrest you. ”

After getting on the train, the gentleman was still cursing on his lips. Wood clutched his hot cheeks as he watched the gentleman sit down in his seat. Wood, who had been beaten, felt extremely aggrieved, and saw that the gentleman was already sitting in his seat, and his mouth was still cursing to himself. He was already indignant in his heart, but when he saw the kind lady he had met yesterday sitting across from the gentleman, a feeling of not knowing what it was, made Wood's heart collapse instantly.

Looking at the fat gentleman who was still chattering and insulting him, he saw the lady sitting across from him looking at the gentleman in bewilderment, and then turned her gaze to herself. Wood's young heart was hit like never before. Wood clasped his hands, dark blue eyes glowing with fire.

The gentleman had a small packet of honey in his pocket, and for some reason the honey package was broken. Not far away, the sound of bees buzzing in the heavy snow was heard, and the little squirrel quickly opened the window of the train, and a large swarm of bees instantly surrounded the gentleman.

There were loud exclamations from inside the train, and Wood walked away without looking back. Wood felt that all that he had done would not be discovered, but he did not want everything he had done to be seen by an old man with white hair sitting in the corner of the train. Randomly, the old man got off the train and walked along the footprints in the snow.

Wood was walking alone on the street, and the little squirrel had already hid in Wood's clothes. The shop that sells hats is on the street, and the most conspicuous place in the window is the hat made of rabbit fur. In such a cold weather, just looking at it, it will feel very warm.

Wood stood in front of the window, looking at the hat, his eyes filled with tears. He is just a ten-year-old child, and after experiencing the life and death of his loved ones, he still has to face the life of a person. Just now, he was slapped hard by that man in order to make a living, and his cheeks are still hot and painful.

Wood reached out and stroked his cheek lightly, and it was only then that the red and swollen cheek returned to its original appearance. It's just that the pain on his face will still be there, and he can only make himself look like he's fine.

"It's a birthday present for you. In the coffee shop, Wood said to Bob with a simple hat in his hand, with a smile on his face.

"It's amazing, I need a hat like this, thank you so much, Wood. Why did you come out so early today, and look at the clothes on your body are all wet. Take it off and bake it next to the fire. Bob liked the hat Wood had given him, and he made him a glass of warm milk and a piece of bread.

Wood hadn't eaten enough, and he had been freezing outside for a long time, so good that he had hot milk and bread, and ate it unceremoniously.

"What are you going to do in the future, you are still young and should go to school. You see, the kids who are your age are now in school. The last time I talked to the principal about you, he said you can go and go to school for free. Bob said that now in Colt Town, kids the age of Wood are already in school.

"If I go to school, I won't have time to get money, and even if the school doesn't charge me tuition, then I won't be able to live in the future. So, I'm not going to go to school, and when I've saved enough money, I'll think about going to school. Wood reluctantly said that he knew that everyone took good care of him, but the problem was that if he went to school, then he wouldn't have time to go to the train station. Even if the school doesn't charge him tuition, his living expenses in the future will be a big problem.

At such a young age, he has to bear such a lot of pressure, which makes people on the side feel unbearable when they hear it. Not long after Wood came in, an old man with white hair came to Bob's café. The man sat right behind Wood, and when he heard Wood's words, the old man couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

"Young people, young age, don't be so discouraged. I know of a college that not only does it not charge tuition, but it also provides you with free accommodation. It's just that that academy doesn't accept all students, and whether you can bake it in depends on your own conditions. The white-haired old man saw that Wood didn't react and said, "I don't want you to say that I'm the principal of that academy, I'm Brooke, I don't know if you've heard my name?"

"I'm sorry, I don't think I've heard your name mentioned in Colt Town. Wood replied truthfully.

"Oh, it's okay kid, if you say, our school is a very interesting house. If you're interested, you can follow the address on my note. Trust me, it's a very interesting college, and you're going to love it. With that, Brooke handed Wood a small note with an address written on it, but Wood didn't know where the place was.

When Brooke was gone, Bob came over, pointed to the address on the note, and said, "What kind of place is this, why haven't I heard of it?"

"Me too, I've never heard the name before, and the address looks special, not like it's near us. Brooke's figure quickly disappeared into the snow, and although Wood did not believe the strange old man's words very much, he was quite interested in the conditions he had just said.

If you don't charge tuition fees and can also provide room and board, this is undoubtedly the perfect fit for Wood at the moment. But what if what this old man said was false, and this school didn't exist at all, and he was just a prank for a while?

Wood's heart, which had just been burned, fell to the bottom in an instant, perhaps, a child like him was destined to be like this for the rest of his life, right? Wood casually threw the small, old-looking note into the stove next to him, and just as the note was lit, Wood heard a 'snap' sound in the air.

The sound was so small that Bob, who was busy, didn't even hear it, but Wood did. However, this sound did not attract Wood's attention, and in the furnace, such a sound was normal, and there was often a crackling sound.
