Tomb Raider: What kind of heroine is she?
Chapter 130: My Money
huff, huff…
After finally getting rid of the group of bodyguards, Zhang Xingxing, who was exhausted, wanted to fall to the ground the moment he saw him. However, the man with black glasses quickly picked him up and threw him on the pillar beside him.
I originally wanted someone to lean on me, but when I saw Zhang Xingxing using his hands and feet to almost grow on the pillar, I still felt a bit amused.
"You were so impressive just now, weren't you? Why are you out of breath after running just two steps?"
Zhang Xingxing clung tightly to the pillar, listening to the man in black glasses speaking fluent Chinese.
Chinese!
Meeting an old friend in a foreign land, she was about to cry for joy, but suddenly she remembered the sarcastic remarks she had made before, as she thought the person didn't understand Chinese.
She couldn't help but scratch the ground with her toes. She lowered her head and followed her trembling legs to see her toes working hard alone. She sighed silently in her heart, "It's really unfair for you to follow me."
"Uh, my endurance is not good, my endurance is not good."
After Zhang Xingxing finished speaking, he handed the violin in his hand to the man in sunglasses, asking him to check if there was anything wrong with the violin. Then he put on his clothes and put the bracelet and other things back on his body.
The man with black glasses took the violin case, opened it, and saw the violin that looked intact. He then saw Zhang Xingxing start to put things into his pocket. He curled his lips, looked around, and when he finally found a scratch on the violin, he raised the corners of his mouth, then quickly flattened them.
"Well, blind Qin, follow me, you are so unlucky..."
Zhang Xingxing heard the wailing and turned around to see the man with black glasses holding a small white handkerchief he had taken out from somewhere, wiping the tears from under his glasses while crying.
!!!
Hiss, why does this posture look more and more familiar the more I look at it.
I seem to have seen it somewhere...
Zhang Xingxing slapped her head and suddenly remembered that she looked like this when she pretended to cry at the Wang family.
Zhang Xingxing's mouth twitched as she thought of it, and she instantly felt like she was being blackmailed. She didn't care about how exhausted she felt, and she just pulled the man with black glasses' arm to watch.
After looking around and not finding any damaged parts, she looked at the man with black glasses in confusion.
"What's broken?"
The man with black glasses looked at the child who was standing on tiptoe and pulling at his child. Just as the corners of his mouth were about to rise, when he saw Zhang Xingxing turn his head, his expression suddenly changed to one of grief. He pointed at the scratch and started crying.
Zhang Xingxing looked at the scratch and the corner of her mouth twitched. To be honest, if it weren't for this person pointing it out, she might never have seen this place in her life.
But it was indeed her who did it. Zhang Xingxing thought about it and put the jade bracelet on Black Glasses' hand. Black Glasses stopped crying for a second and then began to whine, "This is a famous piano from a great master. I plan to take it to the concert hall to perform in the future...blah blah blah."
Zhang Xingxing felt a little dizzy after being scolded like that. She held onto the man with black glasses' arm, and finally gave him the golden Buddha necklace with a painful feeling.
Seeing that the man was about to say something, Zhang Xingxing put the dagger in his hand first.
Take it, greedy boy.
Then she stared at the man with black glasses with her dead fish eyes, as if to say, "If you say anything else, I'll turn around and leave immediately."
The man with black glasses looked at Zhang Xingxing, whose resentment was about to feed the Evil Sword Immortal, and tactfully stopped crying. Instead, he packed up the treasure happily and gave him a thumbs up.
"Girl, you are so generous!"
After saying this, he remembered Zhang Xingxing's intention to exchange things at the beginning, and Black Glasses, who was still thinking about the watch, spoke.
"Ahem, girl, I saw you just exchanged something. Do you want to exchange it for money? Why don't you find me, Hei Ye? You can kill two birds with one stone and get your money's worth."
Zhang Xingxing shuddered as she looked at his face and posture, which was just like a scalper selling tickets diligently before a concert.
What is this man doing with his great height and broad shoulders and narrow waist!
According to Zhang Xingxing's estimation, this guy has an absolutely amazing body. The above body can appear in many places, such as those small videos without showing the face, and can also appear in fitness advertisements... But! It shouldn't appear on a scalper.
Divided, too divided...
Zhang Xingxing, who was speechless, looked at the tall figure of the man and swallowed.
If she hadn't dodged this punch, she would have died with a smile on her face...
As for the blind man this person mentioned, haha, not only did he run faster than her on the road, but he also found scratches so well that even someone with 2.0 vision would have to admit defeat. His eyesight is really good!
"Well, that's fine. I want to buy a ticket back home. If you help me, I can give you the watch."
Black Glasses' eyes lit up when he heard this. He saw that the watch was also a good watch. He immediately agreed to this deal. After listening to Zhang Xingxing's description of the dock, he took her to that place without stopping.
Zhang Xingxing was very excited when he saw the familiar pier, but he was not happy for even a second before he was stunned by the scene in front of him.
Where's her boat?! She came here on such a big boat!
At this moment, there were only a few small boats left at the dock. Black Glasses ran to negotiate with the people, while Zhang Xingxing stayed where he was, staring at the dock with empty eyes, with a bad premonition gathering in his heart.
Sure enough, after a while, Black Glasses came back with bad news. The ship she came on had already left, and because of wartime requirements, all ships now needed government approval to go out to sea, and people without identity documents could not go out at all.
After saying this, the man with black glasses touched his chin and sighed in his heart. It seems that God is not on my side. I can't make this money. I feel sad.
After hearing the news, Zhang Xingxing's brain froze for a second, and only one thought remained in his heart: I can't go back, I can't go back... All the experiences from the Wang family to the present flashed through his mind, and he immediately collapsed on the ground and burst into tears.
The man with black glasses, who had just felt heartbroken, turned around and saw the child's broken expression, and thought to himself, it's bad.
Sure enough, Zhang Xingxing was seen crying loudly, and the sound was deafening, attracting the attention of everyone on the board. The scrutiny in their eyes made the man with black glasses sweat profusely.
"Oh, auntie. I'm already scared of you, why are you so angry? Do we have to go back now? Can't we wait for a while?"
As he was talking, he looked at Zhang Xingxing's tattered clothes, his lavish spending, and his anxious look to return home, and sighed.
"Little ghost, you are so anxious. You must have offended someone. Someone is hunting you down. That's why you are running back to your country to hide..."
Zhang Xingxing: …
One hundred points will be deducted for messing up the formula!
Hearing this, Zhang Xingxing thought of the threats from the Wang family and the shot that Wang Jue shot at her, and cried even more heartbrokenly. Black Glasses felt like he was about to be pierced into a sieve by the gazes of the people around him, and he slapped his hand.
I made you want this watch, I made you want this watch, now it’s over, right?
Black Glasses sighed as he looked at the man squatting on the ground, producing and selling mushrooms and adding water to them. He took out the handkerchief he had used to pretend to cry from his pocket, squatted down and handed it to Zhang Xingxing.
"Don't cry, auntie. You're almost calling the police. Come on, wipe it. Tell me, why do you have to go back now?"
Zhang Xingxing was stunned by this question. She had been holding on for the entire life since the chase, but was finally awakened by this soul-stirring question.
Yes. Why must she return home now? Not only are the Wang family trying to catch her everywhere, they are also keeping an eye on the Hong Mansion, and maybe the Zhang family too.
If she went back now, where could she go? Medog? But if she led the Wang family there, what would Bai Ma’s mother do…
Besides, she is a monster. Even if she goes back, will everyone really be able to accept her without any reservations after knowing about it?
……
"do not know…"
Zhang Xingxing gradually stopped crying. Her light voice came out from under her elbow, which was considered as an answer to the question asked by Black Glasses. Unfortunately, after hearing the answer, Black Glasses scratched his ears in disbelief.
ha?
The reason why I had to return to my country no matter what, I didn’t even know it!
Playing with him!
Suddenly, Black Glasses felt that his rare conscience had been played, so he took back the handkerchief, stood up and wanted to leave. After walking a few steps, he saw a child squatting on the ground crying like a little cat, sighed, turned back, and stuffed the handkerchief into Zhang Xingxing's hand.
"Well, you are really lucky, meeting the kind-hearted Mr. Hei today. Tell me your name and what you did before."
Zhang Xingxing, who had calmed down at this moment, looked at the strange man in front of him and then at the handkerchief in his hand.
He wouldn't ask me for money after using his handkerchief. He wouldn't ask me my name to kidnap people.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xingxing felt a little scared, and quickly stuffed the handkerchief back into the hands of the man with black glasses, thinking that he might as well just fool around.
"My name is Ariel. I used to be an underground worker, but now I can be considered an unfinished performing artist."
Black Glasses: ...
Are you kidding me?!
Black Glasses looked at Zhang Xingxing who nodded seriously after speaking, and felt a sense of blockage in his heart. Black Glasses, who had not felt this speechless for a long time, thought to himself and bounced his head on the girl's forehead without thinking. He could see that the girl was not very smart and was probably stupid.
"Who are you trying to fool, kid?"
Zhang Xingxing held her head and stared at the man with black glasses, crying.
What did she say wrong?
Is the Little Mermaid called Ariel? Is the Zhang family she originally lived in engaged in underground work? Is her master Er Yuehong a performing artist?
What did she say wrong!!! Why criticize her like this?
"Okay, if you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. No one is forcing you to do that. Why would you make up such a ridiculous story to deceive people? By the way, do you have anywhere to go now?"
Zhang Xingxing shook his head subconsciously when he heard the question, but then he felt something was wrong and stared at the person with a vigilant look. Black Glasses looked at the child who looked dizzy, and he was afraid that he would see her rolled up a paper shell under the bridge in a few days.
"Then do you have money?" After asking this question, Black Glasses suddenly felt something was wrong. He immediately changed his words. "Then do you have anything that can be exchanged for money?"
Zhang Xingxing finally understood the purpose of this person after hearing this. He was just chatting to improve their relationship so that he could get the goods from her. Zhang Xingxing felt relieved all of a sudden. She thought about the sack of stolen goods from the Wang family in the space and nodded.
Black Glasses' eyes lit up after hearing this, and there's more!!!
"Ahem, then why don't you stay at my place now? I'll provide you with a place to stay. You give me your treasures, ahem, things, and I'll sell them for you. After we sell them, we'll split the profits 30-70, and you just have to pay me the rent~"
"One nine."
"Eight, it can't be any less. Any less won't be enough for me to find someone to spend money on~"
Zhang Xingxing stared at the black glasses for three seconds, then stood up and was about to leave.
"Nineteen, nineteen. That's enough. Kid, who did you learn to bargain from? If you can't come to an agreement, just leave. You are really amazing..."
The man with black glasses grabbed Zhang Xingxing who was about to leave and muttered in frustration.
Zhang Xingxing: Hehehe.
She knew it.
Then she thought about the sack in her space, and told Black Glasses to leave it there while she went to get the rest of the things. Then she turned and walked towards a room on the dock where groceries were piled. Seeing that there was no one inside, she closed the door, entered the space, took out the bag of things she had searched Wang's house before, and dragged them out.
After waiting outside for more than ten minutes without seeing anyone, the man with black glasses was still wondering if he had been fooled by the kid again, when he saw the shabby kid, dragging a sack of things, and waving his hand with a bright smile on his face.
What a fool!
Black Glasses couldn't help but smile as he watched, and after silently cursing in his heart, he strode towards Zhang Xingxing. Seeing how hard she was dragging, Black Glasses became curious, took over, and took a look at her pocket before helping her carry the things.
Just this one glance left the man with black glasses dumbfounded, and he immediately tightened the mouth of the sack.
What is the origin of this thing? Not only are there all kinds of treasures in it, but there are also guns, knives, and hidden weapons.
He swallowed his saliva. Could it be that he was really robbing a rich man's house, offending him, and then preparing to escape back to his country? It didn't look like that...
Then he just gave up. Anyway, he didn't steal it. He was just an ordinary middleman, so what could be wrong?
no problem!
Having figured it out, Black Glasses smiled widely and gave Zhang Xingxing a thumbs up.
"Little boss. That's awesome~"
Zhang Xingxing looked at the man with black glasses who suddenly started to act crazy again, and didn't understand why this man was so happy that he became depressed, and then became happy again after being depressed.
"go?"
"let's go."
The man with black glasses was carrying a sack and walking in front of her with big strides to lead the way. Zhang Xingxing looked at his broad back and suddenly felt a sense of reliable security.
Did this person see her difficulties and coax her?
But this feeling did not last more than three seconds. When she saw the man in black glasses, baring his teeth, smiling with a greedy look on his face and turning back to shout at her, the filter shattered to the ground, and a sense of unreliability instantly hit her.
Zhang Xingxing: ...
Oh, don't think about it, he's after my money!
"Follow me."
"I'm coming."
After saying that, Zhang Xingxing followed with brisk steps.
......
Afterwards, the conversation between the two people floated in the breeze of a foreign country.
"Uncle, what should I call you?"
"Please call me brother, thank you. Black glasses, black blind man, and some people call me Hei Ye. These names are all fine~"
"What about you, kid?"
"Ariel!"
"I've already told you that if you don't want to say it, you don't have to. Don't make up a fake name to fool me..."
"No. That's my name. Ariel Zhang."
"Your last name is Zhang? Zhang what?"
"Ariel Zhang."
"Do you take me for a fool?!"
"..."
