Chapter 1098: Fierce Fight! Master and Disciple 8 (Part 2)

On a street in the middle level, the sun was shining hot, just after 9 o'clock.

"Sir, I won't dare to do it next time, please forgive me."

A young man who looked to be in his twenties was tied to the door of a store, with a sign hanging on his body that said "I am a thief."

The man begged, his whole body was wet, and the shop owner had a face full of flesh and looked aggressive. He raised a cane in his hand and beat the thief hard, and the thief wailed.

Many passers-by felt that the boss had gone too far, so they waited for the administrators to come over, but the boss was still not satisfied, until the thief's skin was torn and the cane had broken on the thief, and he kept struggling.

"I said, do you want to beat someone to death? Forget it."

"Forget it?"

The boss widened his eyes and looked at the people pointing and talking around him. This thief often visited his store a few months ago and took some things every day. In these few months, the boss has lost thousands of yuan of goods.

This morning, the thief stole a bunch of eggs and the boss caught him on the spot. In order to catch this thief who often visited his store, the boss could only pretend to have the latest surveillance equipment.

"It's not your turn to criticize me. I have three children. My wife and I worked hard for more than 20 years to finally open this grocery store. He has hands and feet and comes to my store to steal things every day."

The criticism around stopped. Although many people pointed and talked, they didn't say anything. After all, the loss of thousands of dollars of goods could not be done by this thief alone. There may be others. This is also a warning to other thieves.

"Sorry, please make way."

In the crowd, Gene smiled and pushed away the onlookers. He was accompanied by Locke, Yu Wanrou, and Xue Wang. They were going to buy something in this grocery store.

"Sir Gene, you're here just in time."

The boss was an acquaintance of Gene, and Gene often went to the boss's store to refill cigarettes. After a while, the two became familiar with each other. The boss knew that Gene was a management officer, so he told Gene about the thief directly and showed Gene the surveillance video.

"Don't use lynching next time."

"Don't move, bear it, you have hands and feet but don't work well, stealing is not a long-term solution."

Gary Locke untied the thief, he trembled and nodded, and said thank you.

"What do you want!"

Gene watched Gary Locke spraying the thief's wound with swelling spray.

"Harrison! Sir, I'm really just a first-time offender. Today is a holiday. I've been unemployed recently. I have someone at home, so I just took a bunch of eggs."

"If you really can't find a job, go to the Eastern Farm."

Gene asked the boss for a piece of paper, and then wrote a string of characters, asking Harrison to take this note and go to the Eastern Farm. At least there is a job and you don't have to starve.

Then Gene asked the boss to let the thief go. After all, the things were taken back. The boss nodded and his anger subsided a lot.

"Principal, isn't it too lenient? According to the law, theft, even if the amount is small, requires at least one week of labor punishment."

Xue Wang said, Yu Wanrou thought for a few seconds, and said with some fear.

"I think it's a holiday today. If I do this, it's too..."

"Xue Wang, everyone has a time when they have to do it. The principal just gave him a chance. If he continues to commit crimes, the life waiting for him will be bleak. After all, a thief who can be easily caught is destined to not have this meal."

"I hope so!"

Gene smiled, turned his head, and glanced at Harrison who was limping away in the crowd not far away. Gene did not expose Harrison in person. He knew very well that the guy was a habitual thief. He had seen him many times. This time he missed it on purpose.

It's just that Gene had seen some of Harrison's good deeds, so he decided to give him another chance. Harrison once used the stolen items and money to help an orphanage through a crisis. He would go to the orphanage for free from time to time, but never mentioned his theft.

At this time, in an alley, Harrison turned in and dragged off his heavy coat painfully. Soon he took out a lot of odds and ends from the built-in pockets on his back.

When Harrison was stealing in the store, he realized that he was exposed. He took a bunch of eggs and put them in his arms like a novice. As a result, he was caught by the boss directly, and he did not resist.

"I can't go to that store anymore."

Harrison, who is over 30 years old, is now a professional thief. He used to be a magician. When he was seven or eight years old, he followed a magician who performed on the street to learn magic, but Harrison had no talent.

In this era, although many people look at magic as magical, they know the techniques after watching it for a long time. This ancient skill has been fully interpreted and can't make much money.

Harrison used to be a regular performer in a pub every night and was able to make a living, but gradually the customers got tired of him and he stepped down. He traveled around doing street performances and his life was always difficult. His best trick was card magic, a kind of magic that relied on quick and imperceptible hand skills.

Harrison, who couldn't even pay the rent, had been hungry for several days. He walked on the street in a daze. He didn't want to be like a beggar and give up his last bit of dignity to beg.

Harrison was probably so hungry that morning that he looked at the delicious food in the barbecue restaurant on the street and walked in unconsciously. But when passing by a group of people, Harrison bumped into a man slightly. After entering the store and eating barbecue, Harrison realized that he had no money, but he took out a few hundred yuan from his pocket.

Unconsciously, Harrison completed a perfect pickpocket.

But today he was lucky. Harrison smiled. If he was taken back, some dirty things hidden in his back pocket might be discovered, and then he would be finished.

"It's better to go to the store less in the future and act on the street."

Harrison is not too obsessed with money, but everything that can be exchanged for money, from pendants on women's ears to some items on other people, briefcases, shoulder bags, etc.

Harrison would steal anything that could be exchanged for money, but he was unlucky today. Soon, Harrison laughed because he saw a family not far away. They had just left the house, and the click of the door made Harrison laugh. The door was not closed properly.

Harrison was also very familiar with unlocking. He casually walked around and made sure that there was no surveillance around the three-story house. Then he came to the door and pushed it open easily. He basically did not bring unlocking tools when he went out to steal. He would only open the door and steal after he made sure that no one was at home during the day and confirmed it again at night.

Harrison basically did not do too many thefts in the same area, but kept changing places.

Harrison quickly searched around the room. After a while, he found some women's jewelry, some medicines, and a small safe.

Harrison did not plan to stay for too long, so he took the safe away directly and disappeared on the street.

After a while, Harrison came to a complex of buildings, and soon found the local black market exchange in a large courtyard.

"What good stuff do you have today?"

Harrison took out jewelry and drugs, and after bargaining with a black market merchant, he finally got more than 600 yuan.

"Harrison, sell me the safe in your hand. This kind of safe is a new model. The market price is about more than 100 yuan. I'll give you 80. The lock is not easy to open, and it has a remote tracking function."

Harrison flipped the safe with pride. The electronic components behind the safe had been removed, and the battery inside was also removed by Harrison. The electronic lock had lost its function, and a cutting machine had to be used to destroy the safe. Harrison shook the safe, and a sound similar to paper came out from inside. It was full, and a large part of the space was occupied by paper.

"2,000 yuan!"

As Harrison said, many black market merchants around him also ran over with interest. Many burglars who broke into houses usually moved small safes over if they saw them. They would not open them themselves, but directly sell them to black market merchants.

Many people took the safe one after another, weighing and guessing what was inside. Some people thought it might just be documents, but some people thought there should be some money, but they didn't know the amount. The price of 2,000 was not expensive, and someone was planning to buy it.

Finally, someone made up his mind and bought it directly. Harrison lost the money and handed the insurance line to the man. To decipher the electronic lock, he had to ask a professional, so the black market businessman brought a cutting machine on the spot. Everyone gathered around and wanted to see what was in the safe. This kind of gambling-like transaction once cost someone thousands of dollars, and as a result, a lot of useful things were found in the safe. Money or jewelry were irrelevant. The most important thing was some extremely private personal things, business secrets, account books, tax evasion secrets, etc., which usually could find the owner and get a large sum of money.

As the safe was cut open bit by bit, everyone's eyes were shining.

"What is this?"

Instantly, the boss who bought the safe was speechless. There were bursts of laughter next to him. There was a thick stack of things that looked like children's graffiti, and the drawings were extremely disgusting. There were men, women, and pictures that looked gloomy and terrifying. There was a thick stack, and there was nothing valuable after searching through it.

"Now you can only sell this safe. It weighs about 20 kilograms. These materials can be sold for 50 yuan at most."

Harrison put the money in his pocket helplessly, and the boss could only shake his head silently. Accepting the loss is the unwritten rule in the black market.

But when the boss asked Harrison where he got the safe, Harrison said that it was under a floor tile and found in a child's room.

At this time, many people found that these disgusting paintings had different styles. In addition to being disgusting, some looked like they were drawn by adults, some by children, and some looked like boys, and some were girls, because there was a name in the lower right corner of all the paintings, Billy.

The font was written in a variety of fonts, with different writing methods and tools, and even blood.

Harrison was a little terrified and couldn't stand it. Harrison took out 500 yuan and returned it to the boss, but the boss shook his head and refused.

"Okay, I'll admit defeat. Take these things away."

Harrison glanced at these words and burned the paintings in a corner.

At 11 o'clock in the morning, Harrison grabbed the money in his pocket and planned to find a place to have a drink. After all, he had a rich harvest today and the money was enough for him to enjoy himself for a while. He called a woman first and booked a door-to-door service tonight.

However, at this moment, a little boy wearing glasses sat in front of Harrison.

"Kid, there is someone here, don't you see?"

Harrison took a look, and the moment the little boy raised his head, Harrison was startled and swallowed.

"Kid, what are you doing?"

Harrison felt that the little boy in front of him looked a little abnormal. He looked about thirteen or fourteen years old. After thinking about it, Harrison stood up and planned to give his seat to the little boy.

"Billy!"

Accompanied by a low voice, Harrison's eyes widened. Just when he was about to get up, he sat down because the little boy in front of him suddenly lifted his shirt and showed a black pistol, which was pointed at him. Harrison saw the black handle of the gun, but was not sure whether it was real or fake. Harrison, who was about to get up, sat down again.

"What's the matter, handsome boy?"

The child showed his white and neat teeth, and then shook his head.

"Where did you hide my Billy?"

Harrison immediately became confused. He raised his hand slightly and shook his head.

"Kid, where are you from? What are you talking about? I totally..."

"Want to try it? Use your life to test whether this gun is real or fake."

Harrison was scared and swallowed.

"Give me my Billy back."

The paintings had been burned by Harrison. He was sweating on both sides of his forehead. At this time, the boy stood up, moved the gun on his waist, and signaled Harrison to leave the store with his eyes.

Harrison didn't want to leave because he was still confirming the authenticity of the gun. Although he didn't know how the child found him, if Harrison wanted to run, he couldn't catch up with him with his thin body, and he didn't leave any evidence of the theft.

Suddenly Harrison realized something. The small circle of lines on the butt seemed to have been seen somewhere before. It was a children's toy gun.

Harrison laughed and stood up directly. He knew that he was panicking just now, so he didn't see it clearly. Now he saw it clearly.

"Kid, it's better not to scare adults. What if you get hurt?"

Harrison said as he walked out of the store. At this time, the little boy behind him really followed him.

"Give it back to me, give me the communication painting between Billy and me!"

The little boy behind him growled, and Harrison deliberately walked into an alley and then shook his head.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

The little boy no longer had the toy gun, and Harrison was about to run away, but the little boy laughed coldly, pressing his head like a madman and roaring.

"Give it back to me, give it back to me, that's the only way I can communicate with Billy, I don't know what Billy is talking about, what he's telling me."

Harrison turned and ran away, and the little boy standing in the alley returned to normal at this time, he smiled slightly.

"You'll regret it, you'll regret it, he'll definitely regret it."

Three voices, three tones and voices, and then the fourth mature and steady tone appeared.

"Everyone, don't worry, no one can get away with the crime they committed for themselves, I'll punish him on your behalf, I'll give him the biggest punishment, a punishment he'll never forget in his life, so you can let go, I won't do anything."

At this time, the little boy's hands were pinching his neck, and he was pinching it very tightly, his cheeks were already red.

"Everyone, my sincerity should be clear to you. I will handle this matter. You just need to have dinner at home and spend a peaceful New Year. I will let him know what the price is!"

Ran Zhi pushed the stroller and held his daughter's hand. His one-year-old son who couldn't walk yet sat in the stroller. He smiled slightly and pushed a cart full of goods with one hand. He came to shop today. Tonight, Ran Zhi invited many friends to his home. He was very happy. He had a much more comfortable life in the past year.

"Ah, there is always a way out."

Ran Zhi recalled that their life was still tight in the past year because the two children needed money, especially the youngest daughter. She would need a large amount of tuition fees when she entered school next year. Ran Zhi also wanted to send her to a good school so that she would at least have a decent job after graduation.

However, the money he saved with great difficulty was used for treatment because his wife was sick. His wife recovered from the disease, but the family fell into an economic crisis.

Ran Zhi was fired by his boss because he couldn't stand those hooligans taking things from the supermarket at will and had a conflict with them. Now Ran Zhi's food is sold to Sanlian Company, a company that has already taken shape and developed liquid food. Although most people are now investing in the liquid food market, Sanlian's position is already stable.

Because this company spent a lot of money a few months ago to buy liquid food to scratch the jackpot. Some people won tens of thousands, some won hundreds, or even thousands, but Ran Zhi won 200,000, which was the largest prize last year. Although part of it was taxed, this money was enough for the family to live well.

At this time, Ran Zhi's eyes were more on the other side, carrying a basket, and the white-haired handsome guy who was noticed by the women in the whole mall. Ran Zhi was a little surprised. He planned to quickly check out and talk to this management officer, because he stopped him that night, and now he has gained happiness.

Ran Zhi even wanted to have a drink with him. Every time he was in a desperate situation, Ran Zhi would think of that night, and then his thoughts would be clearer.

"Sir, can you wait?"

Ran Zhi looked at the man who came out, still the same as six years ago, without any change.

"Ah, you are the gun-wielding boy that night!"

Gene smiled, and Ran Zhi nodded.

"Can we talk a little bit, sir, my name is Ran Zhi, what about you!"

"Gene!"
