The man who had been stepped on by Qin Wan interrupted and said:
"Girl, I understand your kind advice. But the truth is, Xiaosong and I are really at our wit's end. Do you have any good methods you can teach us?"
Qin Wan didn't really have any good ideas. She only knew that their stealing was wrong, but she couldn't offer them a way out. Suddenly, a feeling of helplessness welled up in her heart.
Finally, she took out ten dollars from her pocket and told them the truth:
"I don't have any good ideas, but I just think what you're doing is wrong. I have ten dollars here, you can help me out first. But that wallet belongs to my friend, you have to return it to us."
At this moment, a loud noise came from the alley entrance, clearly reaching the ears of several people. It turned out that Wang Liming and others were walking towards this side:
"I just saw Wanwan turn in from here. Let's quickly look along this alley. Maybe we can find their traces!"
The person who spoke was Zhang Erxiu, and her tone was full of anxiety and expectation.
After hearing this, Qin Wan turned to look at the two men beside him and said with a firm and serious look, "Return my friend's wallet to me immediately!"
The thin man was obviously intimidated by Qin Wan's aura. He took out his wallet from his pocket tremblingly and handed it to Qin Wan carefully.
Qin Wan took the wallet, held it tightly in his hand, and then whispered to the two men:
"You guys better leave here quickly. If they see you later, you'll be in big trouble."
The two men nodded and thanked him repeatedly as if they had been pardoned. The thin man in particular was so grateful that he burst into tears. He said sincerely:
"Thank you so much, kind lady. May I ask your name? If I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely repay your kindness for the money you gave me today."
Qin Wan smiled slightly and waved his hand, saying, "Don't be so polite. I didn't actually help you that much. I just did what I should do. You should leave as soon as possible to avoid any complications."
After she finished speaking, she turned and walked deeper into the alley, leaving the two men standing there, looking at her back as she walked away, their hearts filled with emotion and admiration.
The short and strong man said:
"Thank you, young lady. If there is no chance in the future, then so be it. But if there is, I, Qian Zhuang, will definitely be worthy of your kindness.
Then, the short and strong man and the thin man ran in the other direction of the alley.
Qin Wan held the wallet tightly in her hand and walked back slowly along the quiet and deep alley with light steps.
Not long after, she arrived at the entrance of the alley and saw Wang Liming, Liu Dong and others who had been waiting there.
Qin Wan took a deep breath, calmed himself down, took out the wallet belonging to Wang Liming from his pocket, and carefully handed it to Wang Liming.
She whispered:
"When I hurried over there, those two damn guys had already opened your wallet and were concentrating on counting the money inside! Luckily, I got there in time, but... as for how much money is in there, I really don't know. Anyway, if there is more, take more, if there is less, take less."
Hearing this, Wang Liming nodded as a matter of course, with gratitude overflowing on her face, and responded:
"Oh, thank you so much, Wanwan! Without your help, I wouldn't have gotten a penny! I will definitely remember this kindness!"
Zhang Erxiu and Zhou Hongmei, who were standing by, also nodded in agreement and echoed:
"Yes, yes! This time, thanks to Qin Wan, otherwise we would all have suffered heavy losses!"
For a moment, the whole alley was filled with laughter and the atmosphere was particularly harmonious.
After having their wallets stolen, Liu Dong, Zhou Yumei and Bai had completely lost the interest and mood to continue shopping and looking for the black market.
At this moment, they were like deflated balls, walking listlessly and dejectedly towards the meeting place agreed upon with Old Bull Head.
When Old Bull Head saw the listless appearance of these people, he couldn't help but feel curious and asked:
"What's wrong with you? You all look like eggplants hit by frost!"
Faced with the concerned questioning of Lao Niutou, Zhou Hongmei took a deep breath and recounted exactly what had just happened.
After listening to Zhou Hongmei's narration, the old bull frowned and said indignantly:
"It really lives up to the old saying - 'Poor mountains and bad waters produce unruly people'! Although we can't be called a poor and bad place, some communes do have some unruly and arrogant people!
It's not uncommon for robberies to happen on a daily basis, but the key is that these guys have endless new tricks up their sleeves!
It is not surprising to encounter one or two robbers occasionally, but if you are unlucky and run into those cruel human traffickers, that would be bad luck!
"These human traffickers are incredibly cunning and devious, using all sorts of despicable tactics. If you're not careful, you could fall into their traps. Once you're caught, it's like a dog-skin plaster, impossible to get rid of!"
While Mr. Niu was talking and expressing his feelings, he skillfully helped everyone to put the purchased items in neat and proper order.
After everything was in order, he called everyone to get on the cart. After several young people got on the cart one after another, the old bull head glanced around again to confirm that everyone was seated safely. He then raised the whip in his hand high and shouted at the old bull in front of him:
