The girl's sprain doesn't look serious, but it may be because she ran forcibly after her knee hit the ground, and it hurts when she walks. "So I'm sitting here and resting. Hey, Lao Wu, you should take a breath first. Do you want to drink?" Lao Tie handed over the bottle he just drank, but Wu Ze didn't take it, and went to the vending machine to buy a bottle by himself.He opened the bottle cap, poured cold green tea down his throat, and observed the girl again.A short lotus leaf skirt, denim jacket, sneakers, a red T-shirt with Mickey Mouse pattern, and a watch that seems to be a Disney character, but I don’t know its name. It’s a dog with its mouth open, and its two arms indicate the time. .The two legs protruding from under the skirt were as tense as the sprinters seen on TV.One of the knees has been scraped, no wonder it hurts.

"Well, bend over a little and have a look." Wu Ze squatted next to the girl, wanting to see her injuries, but the girl seemed to be frightened, and suddenly closed her knees, raised an eyebrow, and showed an unbelievable expression on her face.Wu Ze had no choice but to snort, and sat back on the chair again. "I'm not a lolicon." "That's what lolicons say." This was the first time the girl spoke.Husky mezzo-soprano, very mature adult voice. "Is this a real voice?" "Ok." "Is it just for business?" "Ok."

"Disney T-shirts, puppy watches, are all props for the opponent to ignore, right?" "puppy?" The girl raised her head in surprise, then looked down at her watch. "Oh, Guo Fei." "Fool." said the old man.The girl and Wu Ze opened their mouths with an "ah" at the same time, and Lao Tie continued to say proudly: "Goofy——stupid, stupid. Didn't you learn it in school?" The girl stared at Lao Tie's face speechlessly for a long time, and finally with a "really" expression, her eyes fell back on the watch. "That's it."

"By the way, you seem to be in your teens—you're not an amateur anymore, are you?" Wu Ze returned to the topic just now. The girl immediately asked back, "What do you mean?" "Stealing things. It looks very skilled." "Not that, what do you mean by 'amateur'?" "That is to say, he is not a Xuanren." "Mysterious man?" "People who rely on this craft to make a living." "Oh, Xuanren." "Hey, it's still such a cute crow." Lao Tie straightened up, crossed his arms and looked at the girl again.The girl turned to him and asked, "A crow?"

Lao Tie explained: "That is to say, Xuanren. Crows are black, so that's why we say that." The girl and the old iron looked at each other for a while. "So, what do you guys do?" Reasonable question. Knowing that the two parties were like dogs of a feather, the girl seemed to let her guard down a little, and began to introduce her work bluntly.The content of the work is roughly the same as expected. The first is to use the "innocent and cute" appearance to approach the target of middle-aged men.The specific methods of getting close include the classical methods before, and there are also those who pretend to be in love with the strange uncle who came over to strike up a conversation, or greet the hand with enthusiasm in a warm voice behind the strange uncle who is walking and smoking. In short, it is based on the situation at the time. various possible methods.Then, try to get the strange uncles to focus on their miniskirts, and the last thing is to steal the wallet with a whoosh and run away.

"But it was very dangerous just now. If you are caught, you will be turned over to the police station." Wu Ze was stopped by the girl halfway through his speech. "No. Usually, I will be let go only when an exchange is made." "Exchange terms?" "Body." The girl said without changing her expression. "Really? Did anyone really say that?" "How many times. But it's actually better that way." "Hey, are you sleeping?" "sleep?" "So that... isn't that what you want to do with you?" Wu Ze put it another way, the girl's appearance didn't change much, but Lao Tie covered his face with his hands as if shy.

"It's not that cheap. There are very few pedestrians on the hotel street. I usually follow him there, and kick him hard in the heart." The girl stomped heavily on the ground with her uninjured leg.Lao Tie covered his stomach with an exaggerated hum. "I see." Wu Ze leaned back on the chair and took a sip of tea. I don't know if she said she was thirsty, but the girl finally picked up the bottle on the table, opened the cap and drank half of the bottle in one go, then closed the cap, looked at the side of the bottle and whispered, "Itoen..." Looking at the girl's profile, Wu Ze was confused—it's time to ask.But it was hard for him to speak.Wait twenty seconds.Uneasy about the answer, Wu Ze was reluctant to speak.Wait another twenty seconds.Wu Ze carefully asked that question while taking care not to show his nervousness.

"By the way, what's your name?" "Kawa. Not cute at all, though." The girl replied, still staring at the plastic bottle. "...What's behind Kawai?" "True search." The heart seemed to be "thumping" loudly inside the ribs. An apartment full of onlookers.A little dirty pink sneakers.In the corridor of the apartment, the pair of eyes that have been staring at the toes.Crystal eyes. "no……" The voice of a single mother heard the day before. "It's already...it's too late..." The name of the mother who was forced to death by Wu Ze was written on the house number.Hehe Liuli River.Next to the name, the word "Mashiro" was written with an oil-based pen.

"I'm really looking for...a name that's a bit rare." Lao Tie stroked his chin thoughtfully.He didn't seem to notice Wu Ze's confusion, staring at the girl's face, he continued, "Where are your parents?" "They're all gone." "Ah, gone. Dead--passed?" "Dad is gone." "Where's mom?" Wu Ze wanted to plug his ears. "Dead. Killed himself by slitting his wrists. Been years ago." "Really." Old Tie pouted. "Didn't you go to your father? You were young, and you lived by stealing, and there was always a little—"

"I don't know where I live, and I don't know what he looks like. And even if I can find him, I don't want to look for him." "why?" "Because he's doing bad things. Mom said so. Picking money from people." "Fraud?" When Lao Tie asked this question seriously, a smile appeared on the corner of Zhenxun's mouth, as if he thought his question was stupid. "I don't think so. It's probably a triad or something. I hate the triad." "True cloud—" "True search." "Mashiro, so you live alone now?"

"Hmm...well, almost." For some reason, Makoto's answer was a bit vague. "Live near here?" "No. Adachi Ward." "Adachi District? We're over there too. Where is it?" Mahiro roughly talked about where he lived.It is not far from the house that Wu Ze and the others rented. "I'm living there now anyway. I don't know where next week." "What's the meaning?" Zhen Xun picked up the plastic bottle on the table and fiddled with it, shrugging his shoulders in denim. "I haven't paid the rent. I'm going to be evicted this week. I owe several installments of rent. This time the landlord finally issued an ultimatum, saying that if I don't pay all the rent within this week, I won't be able to move in." "How much is it all?" "A little less than three hundred thousand." "Ouch!" Old Tie said, "Is there any direction?" "No. In fact, I planned to work hard today and get half of the rent. The store gave away a big discount today, as stated in the flyer. But the legs are like this... I really don't have the confidence to run away when I show my stuff." Shinzo looked at his injured right knee. "I said Lao Wu, lend her some money for dinner. It's very pitiful——" Wu Ze shook his head silently.Lao Tie seemed a little surprised, but he didn't say anything else. He turned to Zhen Xun and said, "Old Wu is not stingy, it's just that we don't have so much money now..." "Well, it's okay. It's already very happy to buy me water." "Ah, that's not from living expenses, it's my pocket money." The old iron said a little proudly.Since living together, Wu Ze and Lao Tie's living expenses have become pocket money. From just now, Wu Ze was thinking.I'm thinking about it. Something has to be done.Something has to be done.He really wanted to pay all the rent that Zhenxun owed less than 300,000 yuan.No payment.But in that case, the old iron will feel strange.If you don't explain clearly, he will definitely disagree.But once it is clearly explained to the old iron, it will be even more impossible to find money for the real one.Because all the money in hand right now is hard earned with Lao Tie.It is absolutely unreasonable to ask Lao Tie for help, obviously in order to repay his past.Absolutely not.What Wu Ze did in the past—the act of killing Zhenxun's mother was no different from the act of killing Lao Tie's wife.The old man is very clear about this.While he was very clear, he still followed Wu Ze.This is exactly the same as Wu Ze followed Huokou's gang, and it was the same as following the same kind who killed Shadai. Now Wu Ze can do other things, but he can't give money.But Wu Ze had nothing.Nothing but a place to live. —Hey, wait a minute. "You can move here." Wu Ze blurted out subconsciously. Zhen Xun and Lao Tie turned their heads to look at Wu Ze at the same time. "Are you kidding me?" "If you really have no place to go, you can move here." "Hey...Old Wu, you mean to live with her?" "Transition for a while. Isn't there no way? They say they will be kicked out." "Let her board?" "That's why it's temporary. Even though you've been hanging on." Lao Tie looked back and forth between Wu Ze and Shinhiro. "Is it necessary to do this to this extent?" The words seemed to be swirling in Lao Tie's throat. "Old Wu, if you say that, I really have no reason to object. But it's a bit difficult for her herself to deal with it like this—right, you don't want to, do you?" "I don't think so, it's a great help." "Huh—" Lao Tie stretched his neck. "These are two big men and you and a little girl. You may not know what will happen." "What will you do?" "Uh, actually, I won't do anything." "That's all right." Zhenxun stood up from the chair, slowly stretched his right leg a few times, and then turned around to face Wu Ze using the heel of his sneakers as the axis. "Of course, first of all I will try to make as much money as possible. I will try my best this week. But, maybe there is a just in case. If no matter how hard I try..." Wu Ze nodded, took out a notebook from his bag, wrote down his address with a ballpoint pen, tore it off and handed it to Shinhiro, and then took out a 10,000-yuan note from his wallet. "what is this?" "Just pay me back." "Old Wu, this is your pocket money?" "Ok." Zhenxun hesitated for a moment, and took Wu Ze's 10,000 yuan note. "What if what I said is all lies? What if I just went around in a big circle just now, and I was actually trying to lie to you?" "We rely on this to make a living, so we can tell if it's true or not." Zhenxun didn't even say thank you, didn't smile, opened the bag, and put the 10,000 yuan note into the wallet. "What a weirdo." After leaving this sentence, Zhenxun turned around and wanted to leave.Wu Ze told her again behind her back: "Come here when you have nowhere to go, don't be too polite."
