cloudy day

Chapter 73 Pawn
I parked my motorcycle in the garage first, and then went to the train station to buy a ticket to the provincial capital.

There was still more than half a day before the departure time, so I wandered around the county town to see if there was anything I needed to buy.

I walked to a relatively bustling street, and when I looked to the side, I saw a girl kneeling on the side of the road. There was a white cloth in front of her, and I didn't know what was written on it.

When I got closer, I saw the words on the white cloth, "Please kindhearted people help me. My father is seriously ill and is lying in the hospital. He urgently needs 3000 yuan for surgery. I am willing to use my ID card as a mortgage. I will definitely pay back the money in the future. Thank you." Your great kindness..."

Although I don't come to the city often, I also know that most of these things are liars, so I didn't take it to heart, turned around and left with a cold snort.

But maybe this girl heard my cold snort just now, she suddenly raised her head and glanced at me.

I saw innocence, helplessness, and a little resentment in her eyes...

My heart seemed to be pinched by someone. This kind of look is very familiar, just like me before.

I deeply remember the feeling when my adoptive father was seriously injured, but I was powerless. It was because of that powerlessness that I lost my composure and did stupid things later on, risking my promise to the old lady Jin, and in the end, the implicated Mr. Jiang sacrificed.

It is said that the eyes of a person are the windows of the soul. Through this girl's eyes, I seem to be able to see her heart. She does not seem to be lying...

I carefully looked at the girl in front of me. She was unkempt and her clothes were dirty.The most noticeable thing is that she has only one arm and a large red birthmark on her face.

I couldn't help but feel sympathy for her. What happened to her touched the most vulnerable part of my heart. Not letting my adoptive father survive is the biggest regret in my life.

With a long sigh, I took out 3000 yuan from my wallet and handed it to her. After the girl took the money, tears filled her eyes, and she kowtowed to say thank you.

When she gave me her ID card and mobile phone number, I refused.I didn't feel sorry for the loss of the 3000 yuan, but it made up for a little regret in my heart.

When I came to the mall, because I didn't have much money on me, I only bought some bread and water.When I went back, I crossed that street again, and found that the girl had disappeared, probably with the money to save her father.

When I was thinking wildly, someone bumped into me head-on. At first I didn't pay much attention to it, but when I came near the train station, I took out my pocket and found that my wallet was gone!
My heart skipped a beat, the wallet contained all my money, without that money, let alone going to Wuling Mountain, I wouldn’t even be able to go to the provincial capital.

I ran back quickly, but the thief had long since disappeared. I looked at the side of the road and thought, I must have been spotted by the thief when I was giving money to the girl.

I now how to do?Go to the police?Or go back to the village first?

I became a little anxious, as innocent and helpless as the girl I met during the day, and also very resentful.

I still chose to call the police first, but on the way to the police station, I accidentally saw a pawn shop with three golden characters on the signboard, "Lei Zihao".

I looked inside, this pawn shop didn't look too big, there were only two reception windows, and the interior decorations were very simple.

Looking at the carved partition, I suddenly remembered the wooden box in the bag, and wondered if I could exchange it for some money.

Although this can be regarded as the relic of the adoptive father, it is more important to fulfill the last wish of the adoptive father, and I was forced to do so.

Since I was dressed in a very ordinary way, even a little rusty, the guy in the store didn't pay much attention to me at first. He saw that I was young, and the first thing he said when he came up: "Little brother, I have to declare beforehand." , We don’t accept things stolen from home, lest your adults come to make trouble. Also, we don’t accept those rags like Water Margin cards.”

"Then, do you keep this thing?" I said and took out the wooden box in the backpack, and the guy's eyes became different in an instant. He opened his eyes wide, ran to the back quickly, and shouted: "Boss, come quickly, there is a big deal!"
