Chapter 32: The Thief
Jiang Zhenzhen looked down at her clothes, a pair of blue khaki pants, with a long-sleeved shirt with flowers on a white background, this dress was given by Jiang Xinghua when she was engaged, there was no patch, but compared with these fashionable Xingang people, this one looks quite rustic.
It's not that she has any desire to compare, but she is afraid that the people here will respect Luo Yi first and then respect others, what she wants to sell is precious wild pearls, if she can't sell them at a price because she is not suitable for wearing, it will be a great loss.
Xingang Roadside is full of shops, Jiang Zhenzhen has seen several selling clothes, but she doesn't have a penny of Hong Kong dollars in her hand, obviously there is no way to change clothes.
The most important thing at the moment is to exchange the pearls in the space for money first.
Jiang Zhenzhen walked on the streets of Causeway Bay, trying to find the "pawnshop" she had seen in the Xingang movie, she wanted to find a larger one, which could make the business so big, maybe it would be a person with vision.
Because he was just looking around, he didn't pay attention to the road, and accidentally bumped into someone. Jiang Zhenzhen subconsciously said sorry, but after speaking, she noticed that the person she bumped into didn't seem to be a good stubble, and his eyes were too fierce.
With a cigarette in his mouth, a leather jacket and blue-black tattoos on his wrists, the man looks like one of those gangsters in the movie.
"Girl, if you don't look at the road when you walk, it's better for me to gouge out your eyes." He narrowed his eyes and held out two fingers and bent them slightly.
Jiang Zhenzhen subconsciously took a step back, and she said again: "I'm sorry." "Where you are not familiar with life, it is better to keep a low profile.
The tall man was obviously not satisfied with Jiang Zhenzhen's slightly perfunctory attitude, and he wanted to say something more, but at this moment, a small man with a thin figure ran over, he came to the tall man and said, "Brother Qiang, I have found Scar Liu." ”
The tall man's expression changed instantly, his pupils shrank, and there seemed to be a knife hidden in his eyes, and he asked, "Where is it?" ”
The little man panted: "In the port!" He's going to run! ”
"Lead the way." The tall man didn't delay for a second, and immediately followed the little man, who ran so fast that they disappeared into the crowd in the blink of an eye.
Jiang Zhenzhen breathed a sigh of relief and was about to continue looking for a pawnshop, when she suddenly heard the sound of "catching a thief" behind her, Jiang Zhenzhen turned her head along the sound, and saw two people chasing in the crowd at a glance.
The thin man in front of him quickly shuttled through the crowd, and an old woman in the back tried to catch up with the thief, but she could only watch the thief get farther and farther away from her.
Jiang Zhenzhen's sense of justice suddenly came up, and she couldn't see this kind of man with hands and feet bullying the elderly, so when the thief ran all the way to her, she quickly stretched out her foot.
The thief stumbled on Jiang Zhenzhen's leg all of a sudden, and then followed the inertia, "snapped", and fell firmly. He was about to get up and continue running, Jiang Zhenzhen quickly stepped forward, grabbed the thief's arm and trapped him behind him, and pressed his knees against his back, making him unable to move.
When the thief saw that there was really someone who acted bravely, he was still a girl, and he couldn't help but scold: "Let go!" Do you know who I am? Hurry up and let me go! ”
Jiang Zhenzhen said in her heart, I don't care who you are, I just came to Xingang to sell goods, and I don't plan to stay here, besides, even if you are a big man's subordinate, she still doesn't believe it, which boss on the underworld can let his subordinates do this kind of stealing chickens and dogs.
Then she snatched the thief's wallet from his hand, causing the thief to curse even more frantically.
Two minutes later, the old grandmother finally rushed over out of breath, she put her hands on her knees, bent over to breathe, and after a few seconds, she eased up a little and said to Jiang Zhenzhen: "Thank you, thank you." ”
Jiang Zhenzhen handed the wallet to the grandmother and said, "No thanks, grandma, are you okay?" ”
"Okay, okay." After the old grandmother calmed down, she straightened up.
And the commotion just now happened to alarm the uniformed policemen patrolling the road, and when the uniformed policemen saw the thief, they showed a disgusted expression and said, "It's you again, Feizai." ”
Jiang Zhenzhen saw that the uniformed policeman was coming, so she let go of the thief, and the uniformed policeman took over the thief, and the thief stood up and smiled very flatteringly at the uniformed policeman, and said, "Sir, meet again." ”
After that, the uniformed policeman left with the thief.
After Jiang Zhenzhen stood up, the old grandmother couldn't help but sigh: "Girl, what did you eat to grow so tall?" ”
The grandmother is very short, only about 1.5 meters tall, and Jiang Zhenzhen is 1.72 meters, almost 20 centimeters taller than the grandmother. Because the distance between the two people was too close, the grandmother could only look up at Jiang Zhenzhen.
Jiang Zhenzhen smiled and said, "Eat fish." She paused, "Grandma, you must be careful when you go to the street in the future, and it is better to hold the wallet directly in your hand, so that the thief will not be able to steal it." ”
"Hey, okay." The old grandmother agreed, then opened her wallet, took out a 100 Hong Kong dollar issued by HSBC from it, stuffed it into Jiang Zhenzhen's hand, and said, "Girl, this is your pocket money." ”
Where can Jiang Zhenzhen accept this, she hurriedly refused, "No, no, I really don't need to." ”
The old grandmother insisted on giving, and she said with a serious expression: "Girl, if you didn't help me get my wallet back, I would not only lose a lot of money, but also a lot of documents, so this hundred yuan is what you deserve." ”
But Jiang Zhenzhen insisted on not accepting it, she thought about it and said, "Grandma, do you know which pawnshop here is more reliable?" ”
"You want to be something?"
"Yes." Jiang Zhenzhen said, "I have a few wild saltwater pearls in my hand, which are particularly precious, so I want to find a pawnshop that is more knowledgeable and does not cheat people." ”
Looking at the old grandmother's dress, she is also middle-class in Xingang, she should be a person who has seen the world, her eyes lit up when she heard the wild pearl, and she asked Jiang Zhenzhen if she could show herself.
Jiang Zhenzhen naturally had no problem, but she looked at the surrounding environment, and the people on the street just took out the precious pearls, which seemed a little inappropriate.
The old grandmother understood what Jiang Zhenzhen was thinking at a glance, and she said, "Let's go, I'll invite you to the café for coffee." ”
