On the taxi back, the car radio was broadcasting a notification.

"The kidnappers involved in the kidnapping of Xiangrong Kindergarten are still at large. We remind the general public to pay attention to safety. If you find any suspicious persons, please contact the police as soon as possible."

In the middle of the night, broadcasting this kind of announcement is somewhat creepy.

Fortunately, after the announcement was broadcast, I immediately picked up a music radio program. The deep voice of the host, accompanied by soothing music, lingered in Annie's ears, making her drowsy.

Suddenly, after shaking for a while, the taxi slowly stopped on the side of the road.

"Master, are you going to the eastern suburbs, are you on the way?" A passer-by bent down and asked the driver loudly through the window.

"Not on the way, the person in the car is going to the west of the city." The driver was in a dilemma for a while, but he couldn't bear to let the banknotes fly away. He rolled down the window and asked the passerby, "Are you in a hurry? If not, I'll finish it." This lady will send you off again."

"No hurry, no hurry." The passer-by opened the door, sat in the co-pilot's seat, and complained with a sigh, "it's too difficult to get a taxi at night."

The voices of passers-by made Annie refreshed a lot. She sat up straight and turned her head to admire the night view outside the window.

At this time, the notice about the kidnappers in the Xiangrong Kindergarten kidnapping case was played again in a loop.

"These scumbags, such small children, how can they do anything." The passer-by cursed viciously, "They should really go to hell."

Driving late at night is extremely boring, and it is a great thing to have someone to chat with you to refresh yourself.

The driver, "I have a relative who works as a school worker in that kindergarten. He told me that the dead child had one of his hands cut off and his face was shaved beyond recognition by the kidnappers. It was very miserable."

Passers-by were annoyed, "It's too inhumane, if you want to make money, you want to make money, why cut off the hands of children."

The driver said, "Xiang Rong is the best kindergarten in the city center. The children in it are all from backgrounds. They are either rich or expensive. In the final analysis, the dead child's life is not good."

Passers-by were aroused curiosity, "You mean, that dead child has no background?"

Driver, "I heard from my relatives that the child who died was the daughter of a female teacher in the kindergarten. She was not eligible for admission, but was able to enter the school because of the new employee welfare policy formulated by the kindergarten. She was with a group of high-ranking children became a classmate."

The passer-by felt sorry for the child, "It was a good thing at first, but I have been exposed to so many big people since I was a child, and I will definitely be promising when I grow up."

The driver sighed, "Yeah, who would have thought that we would run into a goddamn robber. The robber was too afraid to touch the children of those high-ranking officials and noble families, and wanted to get money, so he had no choice but to find a hapless ghost with no background and identity and kill him." Show the chicken to the monkey."

No matter how poor the little girl is, she is not as important as her own firewood, oil and salt.

Soon, the topic of drivers and passers-by shifted to the explosive news of a famous athlete's derailment in marriage.

After a while, drivers and passers-by began to have heated discussions about the reform of the social security system.

Few people would be free enough to help that little girl get justice.

But in this world, there will eventually be some people who, for various reasons, choose to stand on the side of the weak and fight against the darkness of the entire world.

Wu Si is that kind of person.

Annie smiled. Although she hadn't seen Wu Si yet, she already had a good impression of Wu Si in her heart.

……

Street lights in old residential areas are basically broken.

When Annie entered the community, she was surprised by several wild cats that came out for food late at night.

At the entrance of the unit, the boy who lived downstairs in Annie's house was wandering back and forth in his school uniform.

Seeing Annie approaching, the young man whistled and teased her, "Going out early and returning late every day, you don't look like a good person."

Annie raised her eyes and asked the young man, "Don't you also leave early and return late every day?"

The young man raised his chin and raised his eyebrows arrogantly, "I'm not a good person in the first place."

This unlucky boy probably needs someone to pin him to the ground and give him a good beating before he can calm down and focus on his studies.

Annie was a little tired today, and she didn't have the energy to do justice for the sky. She went straight past the boy, pushed open the door of the unit, and walked in.

The boy followed Annie and entered the unit door.

When taking the elevator, the boy said to Anne seriously: "I'm a man, it doesn't matter what time I get home, but you are a girl, it's not safe to stay outside so late."

He is a man and she is a girl? !

Please, if she was a few years older, teenagers could call her auntie.

Annie glanced at the boy, and found that the boy's eyes were calm, without the slightest worry. Thinking back to the boy's rigid tone when he spoke just now, Annie vaguely felt that what the boy said did not seem to be sincere.

It seemed to be asking her for something, saying something nice to please her temporarily.

Sure enough, when the elevator stopped on the seventh floor, the boy followed Annie and got off the elevator together.

"Your home is on the eighth floor." Annie reminded the boy.

The boy stood at the door of Annie's house, pursed his lips, and did not speak.

Annie took out the key, and the boy blocked the door lock, preventing Annie from opening the door.

Annie frowned, "What are you doing?"

The boy's attitude finally softened. He stretched out his hand and tugged at Annie's arm, "Sister, please do me a favor."

Annie, "What's the matter?"

"Let's go in and talk about it." After finishing speaking, the boy turned around and used the key to open the anti-theft door of Annie's house, and walked in like no one else was there.

Annie looked at the young man's back speechlessly, but she hadn't agreed yet.

……

The boy went to the balcony, bent down and looked down, then turned back to the living room, sat on the sofa, put his legs on the coffee table carelessly, and asked Annie, "Is there any beer?"

Annie shook her head, she just came back for the second day, let alone beer, her house didn't even have a single grain of rice.

"Then pour me a glass of water. I wandered downstairs for more than an hour, and I almost died of thirst." The boy unzipped his school uniform, undid the top two buttons of his shirt, and leaned his head on the back of the sofa. On the ground, there was a bit of cynical taste in every gesture.

Annie felt conscious, so she took out a bottle of mineral water from her backpack and threw it at the boy.

"Thanks." The boy took it, unscrewed the bottle cap, and drank it in a big gulp.

After drinking the water, the boy asked Annie, "Do you live alone?"

Anne nodded.

The boy raised his hand to wipe off the water stains on his lips, and continued to ask: "No boyfriend?"

"No." Annie paused and told the boy, "I like women."

"Uh..., is it true or not?" The boy was startled, and then gave a thumbs up, his eyes full of admiration, "Awesome."

Annie was surprised.

The boy patted his chest and assured Annie, "Don't worry, I will help you keep the secret."

Annie didn't think there was anything to keep secret, but she couldn't bear to take the boy's kindness into consideration, so she smiled and thanked the boy.

……

"Okay, it's time. I'll go home first, and I'll chat with you when I'm free." The boy glanced at the time, stood up from the sofa, and walked to the balcony with his schoolbag.

Annie pointed in the direction of the porch and reminded the boy, "The door is over there."

"I'm not mentally retarded, of course I know where the door is." The young man gave Annie a sideways look, and began to tell Annie about his plan, "I sneaked out to play, there will be noise when I open the door, I'm going to jump from your balcony to my balcony."

"My bedroom is next to the balcony. As long as I jump successfully, I can definitely escape my father's eyes and sneak back into the bedroom without anyone noticing."

Fourteen or fifteen years old is a good age to dare to die.

Annie stopped the boy, "If you want to commit suicide and go somewhere else, you're going to die on the balcony of my house. I can't explain it clearly with eight mouths."

"Why, don't you believe I can jump over?"

The young man was very angry at Annie's questioning. He strode towards the balcony, waving his hands as he walked, "Come here, my master will open your eyes today."

When Annie followed, the boy had already leaned on the railing and turned to the outside of the balcony.

Annie leaned against the balcony door, waiting to open her eyes.

The boy hung half of his body and climbed down with one hand. When his hand reached the bottom of the railing, his lower body swayed and jumped down.

Annie walked to the railing and looked down. The boy stood steadily on the balcony and looked at her provocatively.

Annie nodded in praise, "Good skill."

"That's right." The boy waved his head with one hand, and gave Annie a virtual hat-off, "Thank you for the compliment."

Annie moved and kicked something with her left foot.

It was the boy's schoolbag, and when he jumped down, he thought it was getting in the way, so he simply took it off.

Annie picked up her schoolbag and threw it down to the boy.

Afraid of being discovered, the boy took his schoolbag and walked into the house.

After walking a few steps, he stopped, raised his head and whispered to Annie, "My name is Liang Kai, which is the word for Rotten Street."

Annie imitated the boy's appearance and yelled back, "My name is Annie, which is the English name on Rotten Street."

Annie didn't hold back her voice. Just as she finished shouting, the living room of Liang Kai's house suddenly turned on the lights.

"Damn, what are you doing so loudly, my dad thought I was reciting vocabulary in the room!" Liang Kai was furious.

Immediately, a roar came from behind Liang Kai, "Stinky boy, slip out to fool around again, see if I don't beat you to death today."

Annie shrugged innocently. This time, she really didn't mean it.

……

Surrounding the TV station is a contiguous business district.

High-end shopping malls, luxury stores, Michelin restaurants, and even five-star hotels, all the top enjoyment that can be bought with money, have taken root in this land where every inch of land is expensive.

Annie spent the whole day looking for a job as a delivery boy in an unremarkable dumpling restaurant next to the Radio and Television Building.

Daily pay, you can leave at any time.

Annie's main purpose in looking for this job is to earn some living expenses.The secondary purpose is to see Wu Si's working environment.

The dumpling restaurant was very close to the TV station. If she was lucky, she might run into Wu Si on the way to deliver the food.

However, Annie didn't have much hope for this chance encounter. This world is not big or small. Even if they live in the same community, they may never meet each other in their entire lives.

The dumpling restaurant does not accept remote delivery, so the work intensity is not particularly high. Annie stays in the dumpling restaurant and takes turns to deliver food with her colleagues.

Sending an order of six yuan, Annie earned more than 200 yuan on the first day of work.

When the store was about to close, a new order of takeaway came in.

Most of the colleagues have already changed their clothes and are ready to leave work, and no one wants to deliver this meal.

"Who can help, send this order over."

The duty manager is easy-going and popular, and everyone is not shy about helping him.

Someone asked, "What's the address? See if I'm on the way."

The duty manager picked up the list and read the address again, "Radio and TV Building, third floor, news headquarters, Wu Si."

Hearing Wu Si's name, Annie took the first step and said to the manager on duty: "I'll go see it off, I'll drop by."
