Seeing her nervousness, Cao An looked at the new guy behind her. He also flinched, knowing that they were still afraid of his face. He raised his hand and pointed to his office, "Come with me first, sit down and talk slowly."

She breathed a sigh of relief. Facing this man's oppressive presence, she was actually a little nervous. He had a fierce face, a burly build, and a height that was overwhelming. "Help!" Her face was wrinkled like a bun under her scarf as she followed him to the office.

Cao An brought her to the office, sat down at his desk, and pointed to the stool opposite him. "Sit down and tell me what's going on."

Xia Youyou calmed herself down and tried to be less nervous. Isn't it just a fierce face? She's not afraid of death! Yingyong just sat in front of him, his eyes wandering, not daring to look him in the eye. He finally spoke: "I just arrived here yesterday. I was originally from the Red Star Brigade under the East City of Yuzhou. Because I was sick, my parents threw me into a dilapidated temple to fend for myself. I didn't die, but I learned about my life experience. I only found out two days ago that I was picked up by them. Now I just want to stay away from them, so I asked the brigade leader for a letter of introduction. I want to settle down here."

Cao An raised his eyebrows slightly, having never expected this to happen. "Where's the letter of introduction?"

She took out the letter of introduction that she had prepared long ago from her bag and handed it to him. I would like to ask what the requirements are for settling down here.

Cao An looked at the official seal on the letter of introduction, picked up the phone on the desk, checked the phone book, and called the Red Star Brigade to verify the authenticity of the matter.

The call was quickly connected, and it was none other than Captain Wang Cheng who answered. Cao An briefly explained the problem, and then a sigh escaped from the other end.

"Comrade, Liu Daya is such a pitiful child. She's been abused by her parents since she was little. Half a year ago, because she was sick, they didn't give her money for treatment and just dumped her in a dilapidated temple and left her there. I feel sorry for her too, can you please help her? The day before yesterday, because they wanted the clothes she was wearing, they threw dirty water on her in the dilapidated temple, calling her a monster and saying that she was begging outside and could support them now that she was well off. It was really unbearable to watch. Those two nominal parents are now one sick and the other insane. They were sent to the clinic yesterday and are being held there. I was just about to go over and take care of them."

After confirming the truth of the matter, Cao An nodded in confirmation and hung up after hearing another piece of news from the other end. Thinking of the news he had just heard, he sighed in his heart. Evildoers will always be punished. He put down his pen and glanced at the girl sitting on the stool, her fingers still unconsciously picking at her. She was only 16 years old and so petite. She must have suffered a lot of abuse. He decided to help her.

"Your name is Liu Daya?"

Xia Youyou felt a headache and asked, "Can I change my name?" She lowered her head and played with her skinny fingers.

"Okay, what name do you want to change it to?"

"Xia Youyou."

"Which You?" He picked up the pen and wrote on the paper.

"The leisurely Yuu."

"Why that name?"

"I like it!" Nonsense. Of course it's her because of this name, can't you say that?

Cao An also realized that he had asked a stupid question. He stopped asking and wrote her new name on the paper.

"To register your household registration, you need a place to live. Do you have one now?"

This made Xia Youyou embarrassed, "No." I don't even have any money! Thinking about the little money I made from selling it yesterday, where can I find a place to live?

He put down his pen and said, "Then I can't register my household registration. I need an address to register my household registration."

Xia Youyou's eyes flashed with confusion, which Cao An noticed as he looked at her. He lowered his head and thought for a moment, "Come back at this time tomorrow, and I'll help you find a solution." Then he remembered what he had said to his mother last night, "Didn't you say you had a place to stay?"

"Does being outdoors count?"

Cao An choked and shut his mouth. He began to feel sorry for her again. She had a miserable life and was driven out. A child had to sleep alone in the wild. Aren't there many people who died quietly outside these days? He decided to find a place for her to settle down. Bao City had been almost cleaned up by him. She was a little girl who could live on her own. He would go back in the evening and ask his mother if there was any house available for rent nearby so that she could settle down temporarily. If she didn't have money, he could pay for it himself and then find her a job. She was still young and had a long life ahead of her.

Xia Youyou thought she could only stop here, and was confused about where to go. She stood up and was about to leave, but then she remembered something and looked up. "Thank you, I won't come tomorrow." She thought she would just be a refugee, or even a beggar.

"Where are you going? Don't worry, how about this, I'll take you to my house first, stay there tonight, and I'll help you find a solution in the next two days." Seeing her frustrated and ready to leave, he was worried that he wouldn't be able to find her tomorrow. What if she ran into danger outside the city? He could only ask her to stay so that he could help her tomorrow.

Xia Youyou shook her head, "No thanks." Seeing how eager he was to help her, she couldn't resist. "Then I'll come back tomorrow."

Cao An said nothing more, "You must come tomorrow, I will help you find a place."

"Thanks!"

Cao An watched her leave the office, then looked at her age and name written on the paper, shaking his head and sighing. He remembered what his mother had said last night: "She's skin and bones. She must have suffered a lot."

Xia Youyou left the Public Security Bureau, feeling she couldn't just sit there and wait for death any longer. She had to make more money. With the money she'd earned from selling flour yesterday, she went to the supply and marketing cooperative. She wanted to buy a large backpack; the shoulder bag she was carrying wouldn't be enough; it couldn't hold much. If she wanted to make more money, she had to sell more.

Carrying the backpack, she emerged and walked to a secluded spot. She glanced around, making sure no one was around, then quickly retrieved the portioned food from the space and placed it in the backpack. Then, thinking of the goose eggs, she gritted her teeth and took out ten of them and placed them in the basket. She couldn't bear to sell the food she loved. The space wasn't infinite, and the timeline for future development was still long, so she had to eat sparingly. But to survive, she had no choice but to sell!
