The Snail Spirit Travels to the 1970s

And I won’t really care about the lost 30%.

Everyone was discussing the issue of food coupons in the dormitory.

The food coupons issued by the school had two stamps on them. With these coupons, they could get a portion of dry food and a spoonful of vegetables at meals without having to pay. This solved the problem of them not having food coupons and their money being stolen.

The first thing they did after getting the tickets was to go to the school cafeteria to get a meal. Many people had not eaten breakfast and went to the morning classes on an empty stomach.

The food problem was solved. All they had to do was wait for news from the police station and get all the lost food coupons back.

Tian Tian originally thought that there were not so many investigative methods available now, and the police had not conducted a thorough inspection of the scene, so it might be impossible to catch the thief.

Unexpectedly, the police at this time were quite efficient. They quickly found the thief and notified their school.

The school teacher came over quickly and found that the thief was actually a 15-year-old boy. He was skinny and bony, and did not look like a 15-year-old boy at all. He looked like a small bean sprout, with a thin body and a big head.

The teacher took a look at the child, then turned to the policeman and asked, "Can the food coupons, money, vegetable coupons, and other things that our school students lost be recovered?"

The most important thing for teachers is the interests of the school students, although the age of the child who stole the things is quite shocking.

The police officer took a look at the child and felt a little sorry for him. "I'm afraid there's no way to get rid of the food coupons and vegetable coupons, but the money can still be recovered, just not much."

As soon as the little boy got the food coupons, he went out to sell them, but there were still some things left at home that were not sold.

The police officer opened his drawer and said, "These are some items we found at his home. Go ask your students to come over and claim them."

The teacher also looked down at the things in the drawer. There were several pens of different brands, ink, several watches, and an alarm clock, but also two enamel pots, an enamel basin, and a piece of jade in the drawer.

The teacher's pupils trembled wildly. It was obvious that this man had stolen enamel pots and the like at the beginning, but later on, the things he could steal became more and more valuable. He no longer cared about ordinary enamel pots and only stole valuable things such as pens, watches, and alarm clocks.

There were so many valuable things that the teachers did not dare to delay. They received a call from the police station and called other teachers in the school, asking them to bring their students to claim the items.

It was class time at that time, so everyone followed the teacher to the police station and skipped the class.

In the blink of an eye, the only people left in the classroom were the four girls from Tian Tian's dormitory and a group of boys whose things had not been stolen.

Tian Tian thought about it later and felt that it was understandable. Most people nowadays are simple and honest and they are dedicated to their work.

Moreover, there were people from the textile factory all around here, and most of them were at work when the items were lost, so all we had to do was check who was at home at that time.

There are not many people staying at home at this time, so it will be enough if we screen them out one by one.

We waited until the evening before they came back.

"What's going on? Did you get your things back? Who is the stealer? How dare he be so bold?" Seeing them coming back, Tian Tian asked them while lying on the railing of the upper bunk.

Li Wenxiu looked exhausted and shook her head at Tian Tian, ​​"I only lost the food, I can't find it back."

"How could it be? It's only been a few days. How could the thief steal so much food and get it out so quickly?" Tian Tian asked in surprise.

The others were also somewhat dissatisfied. "I feel that the police didn't look for us seriously at all. They have already found out the boy's whereabouts, so how could they not find our lost food? They must be very rich as speculators. Even if they can't get the food back, they should at least give us some money!"

Everyone else started complaining, except Tian Tian, ​​who was paying attention to something different. "Little boy?"

"Is it a little boy who comes to steal things?"

"Yes! That little boy is only fifteen years old. I don't know how his family taught him. He stole things at such a young age. What will he do in the future?"

"I heard that everyone in the boy's family had died, and he had two younger brothers and sisters to support. He had no other choice but to engage in profiteering as he couldn't afford to support them," said Li Wenxiu.

She went to the toilet in the police station once and heard a lot of things.

So even though she was angry about her things being stolen, she actually felt pretty bad when she heard about the little boy.

"The little boy may be sentenced to death now. He is actually quite pitiful. After the accident, his younger brothers and sisters also had a hard life." Li Wenxiu said tiredly. She had been running around all day but got nothing back.

"We are actually fine, but we don't know what will happen to the boy's brother and sister in the future. If they couldn't survive, who would do such a thing as speculation? And judging by the clothes the boy is wearing and his appearance, he probably didn't make much money. I guess he gave it all to other people."

Nowadays, stealing chickens and profiteering is a serious crime. It is a huge crime for a farmer to sell one or two kilograms of vegetables he grows, not to mention that the little boy stole so many things and then engaged in speculation.

"You are too kind." Chen Qianqian was a little angry. A little boy stole her pen, but she didn't see her pen when she went to the police station. She also didn't get the other pens she wanted back. She was very angry now. "Look at how skilled he is at unlocking the door. We can't tell from his appearance that he is an old hand. It's understandable that he stole things for survival the first time, but it's not understandable the second and third time. This time the boy stole so much food, it should be enough for him to eat for a year or two."

The food they brought was enough for one month. The food that was stolen from their dormitory alone was enough for eight months, not to mention the food that was stolen from other dormitories.

Tian Tian didn't know what to say after hearing this, but she didn't know what the situation was, so she didn't talk about it.

"Have you eaten dinner?" Tian Tian asked.

Everyone shook their heads. They were all in the police station. Eating outside required tickets and money, and was much more expensive than in the school. They were reluctant to spend money to eat at the state-owned restaurants outside.
