Quickly wear in the small world while eating melons

Chapter 216: Eating Melons and Watching the Show in the 60s 11

In addition to state-owned restaurants, department stores are also a must-see place in this era.

Fortunately, the department store in Jiang City was not far from the steel plant, and Baiyin arrived there in no time.

As soon as you walk in, you are instantly overwhelmed by the hustle and bustle. The scenes inside and outside are completely different.

There are a lot of things in the department store, including food, drinks and daily necessities. There are a lot of people gathered in front of each stall.

Baiyin also walked around from beginning to end and found that almost everything here was in her space.

When she collected things, she also took into account the situation when she traveled through time and space, so she collected a lot of things from different eras. Maybe the variety of things in this mall is not as rich as that in her space.

Basically, you need a ticket to buy everything here. If you don’t have a ticket, it’s useless even if you have money.

Various novels say that the sales clerks in these department stores have bad attitudes and look down on people.

From what Baiyin saw after walking around, he found that some waiters were indeed arrogant and looked down on people, but most people were not like that.

Although she was a little impatient and her voice was loud at times, it was also because so many people gathered together to buy things. If she didn't speak louder and take a tougher attitude, she might not be able to continue her work.

It can be seen that there are bad apples in every industry in every era, but there is no need to rubbish them all with the same brush.

After looking around the department store, Baiyin found that there was nothing that interested her, so she left.

Just as she walked a short distance out of the door, she heard the voice of an older woman inside: "There's a thief! Catch the thief! The man in front is a thief!"

After hearing the voice, Baiyin was no longer in a hurry to leave. He turned around and looked behind, and found that it was an old lady chasing a man.

People of that era were still very simple and honest. When they heard there was a thief, they would immediately step forward to help.

However, the man suspected to be the thief was thin and short. He avoided many people with his agile body and then ran towards Baiyin and the others.

Just as he ran past Baiyin, Baiyin stretched out a foot without any burden and tripped him to the ground.

Before the thief could react, he was already lying on the ground.

Baiyin kept his merits and fame to himself and silently withdrew his foot.

Then, the people behind him rushed forward and surrounded the thief. Someone took back the stolen money from the thief and handed it to the old lady who came behind him: "Auntie, please think about it. Are these the money you lost?"

The lady took the money and notes, looked at them carefully and counted them, and said, "These are what I just lost. Fortunately, I found them back. I saved these money and notes for a long time. I was going to buy something at the department store today. If they were gone, I would be so heartbroken!"

His tone was full of relief.

Then, the old lady said to the crowd: "Thank you so much today. Without your help, I don't know if I can get my money back!"

The onlookers felt a little embarrassed when they saw the old lady thanking them sincerely, as they had not been able to help at all.

At this time, the man who had just taken something from the thief spoke up: "This thief dared to steal things in broad daylight in front of everyone. Now he is caught red-handed. Let's send him to the police station!"

Everyone agreed: "Yes, send him to the police station. People like this should be arrested."

At this moment, the thief who was controlled by several people was in tears. He just wanted to steal some money, but he didn't expect that he would fail and was caught by the old lady as soon as he started.

This was his first time stealing something, and he ended up suffering such a setback. It seemed that he was really not suitable for this line of work.

If he were given another chance, he would definitely not choose this vigilant old lady. He would choose a young girl, who would definitely be easier to get than an old lady.

It would have been fine if he had just been discovered, but he actually tripped while trying to run away.

How could he be so unlucky!

The first time he did something bad, he encountered so many unexpected things. Could it be that God didn't allow him to do bad things?

No one knows the thief's mental state. All we can see is that he hasn't spoken since he was caught, with his head down, and no one knows what he is thinking.

When he heard that everyone was going to send him to the police station, he quickly raised his head and begged everyone, "Please show some leniency and don't send me to the police station! This is my first time stealing! My mother is sick and has no money for medicine, so I had no choice but to steal! Please let me go, my mother and I are an orphan and a widow, and if I go to jail, my mother will have no way to live!"

The thief was in tears when he talked about this.

It turns out that this trick really works. Many people present were persuaded by him and wanted to let him go.

"Or, let's just let him go. Anyway, we have recovered all the things and there is no loss."

"That's right. It's not easy for them as an orphan and a widow. If he really goes to jail, what will his mother do?"

Everyone is saying things like this.

Even the lady whose belongings were robbed was a little hesitant.

Although the thief's acting was very good, Baiyin had already seen through his lies. The story about the sick widowed mother who depended on each other for survival was probably just something he made up to deceive everyone.

I have to say, this guy’s acting skills are pretty good. Look how he fooled these people. His acting skills are far better than some stars in later generations!

Just when everyone was hesitating because of the thief's words, a voice suddenly came from the crowd: "Don't believe him, what he said is all fake!"

What the voice said immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The man was not nervous when he saw that everyone was looking at him, and he quickly told everyone what he knew.

"I know this guy. His name is Lai San. He doesn't even have a widowed mother to rely on. He has a large family, and he does nothing all day long. He just hangs out with other people. He's just a second-rate guy."

This person is actually not familiar with Lai San, he just knows a little about his situation.

Everyone was shocked when they heard what this person said.

"Is what this person said true? How dare this thief lie to us!"

"This thief made up this lie just to avoid being sent to the police!"

There are also people who have always felt that this thief is not a good person and is deceiving everyone. "I told you that he might be lying, but you still didn't believe it. Now it's confirmed!"
