The girl kept running and stopped only when she couldn't run anymore. She looked at the steaming rice balls in her hands and took out a wad of bills from her arms with her other hand.

She looked at the neatly stacked money with a guilty and struggling expression on her face, but in order to save Meihui, she had no choice.

After finishing his meal, Jotaro handed the tableware to the boss, then reached for the money, but his pocket was already empty.

Seeing Jotaro's lack of movement, the boss reminded him, "Sir, this meal costs fifteen dollars in total."

(I checked the price of goods during the Taisho period in Japan. The Internet said that one yen is equal to one hundred dollars, and a meal is only about ten dollars. A bicycle is about 10 yuan, so I also changed the 50 yuan that Jotaro paid for the watch before. It became [-].)

Jotaro thought back to the girl from before, and it was obvious why.

He stood there with a dark face.

"Boss, the total here is 10 yuan. Your ginger pickles are really delicious." Butterfly Ninja handed the money in his hand to the boss, turned to look at Jotaro and asked with concern, " Damn Guabu Daisiga? Jo Taro-san?"

She glanced at the somewhat sulky boss and said, "If you don't pay, the boss will be angry."

"Hey, woman, lend me 15 dollars." Jotaro looked at Butterfly Ninja.

"Eh?" Butterfly Ninja said in surprise, "That Jo Taro-san can actually ask for help?"

She put the index finger of her right hand on her lips, looked at the sky and thought, "What should I do? Do I want to borrow it?"

Jotaro's face became darker and darker when he saw her hesitant look.

The butterfly ninja looked at Jotaro's deflated look and snickered in his heart, but it didn't show it at all on his face. It was almost over and he had no intention of teasing Jotaro anymore. So, she took out the meal money and gave it to the boss.

After paying the bill, the two left the town. A mile away from the town, the Butterfly Ninja suddenly stopped, and his petite and exquisite body stood in front of Jotaro.

Soon, a crow came from the sky and landed on her shoulder with fluttering wings.

The crow whispered in her ear and she didn't know what he was talking about. She just tapped her forehead, and then the crow flapped its wings and flew away.

Jotaro just watched from behind, not knowing what they said. Moreover, he doesn't like eavesdropping on other people's whispers.

"Jo Taro-san, why don't you follow me? The girl who stole your money just now is in that direction." Butterfly Ninja tilted his head and said.

"Bah." Jotaro frowned and looked at the butterfly ninja's figure walking away. "Yeah, yeah, fuck Oona! (This woman!)"

The girl was panting and running, but she didn't feel tired at all. She looked at the money in her hand, and her eyes became determined.

"Meihui, wait for me, I will definitely cure your disease."

Not far away, in a dilapidated hut made of wood, a pale girl was lying on a yellowed floor, covered with a seven-hole and eight-hole quilt. Her eyes were closed tightly, her expression was painful, and there was a lot of sweat on her forehead.

But even so, when she heard the footsteps outside the door, she still opened her eyes and wanted to get up tremblingly.

When the girl who entered the door saw this scene, she immediately rushed over and said reproachfully: "Meihui, don't be like this. Lie back quickly. You are weak, so don't show off."

Meihui, who was lying on the bed, looked at the girl covered in dirt in front of her, with a trace of distress in her dull eyes. She made weak, intermittent sounds from her dry mouth, "Sister...sister...you... I'm home."

"I'm back." Seeing Meihui's seriously ill appearance, the girl's eyes turned red without knowing it, and her voice choked up.

She tilted her head and quickly wiped away her tears. She didn't want her sister to see her like this, because seeing her sad, Meihui would definitely blame herself.

"Meihui, look what this is. This is your favorite seaweed rice ball. It was given to you by a kind-hearted person I met today." When she said this, she looked a little uncomfortable.

In order to take her sister to the city for medical treatment, she needs a lot of money. So this is not her first time stealing, but she has never felt guilty. Those people saw her as if they were looking at garbage. At least they told her to get away quickly, and at worst they punched and kicked her.

But this time the person he stole from, not only did he not drive her away, but he also did not beat her, and even gave her delicious food.

"I'm sorry, but I have no choice. My sister is my only relative in this world, and I must save her. If there is still a chance to meet you, I am willing to be a cow or a horse to repay your kindness." She said in her heart said.

"Sister...sister...you eat. I'm...not...hungry" Meihui made a difficult voice.

"Meihui." The girl stroked her sister's face and said, "Sister has saved enough money and can take you for treatment soon."

She took the money she stole from Jotaro, placed it in front of her sister, and said, "Look, a lot of money, plus some of the money I saved before, will definitely be able to cure you. Mihui, you must not give up." "

"Hey, little beggar, where did you get this money?" A man with bare breasts and a pointed mouth walked in at some point.

The girl suddenly turned around, hid the money under her body, and said, "What money? We don't have any money here, so go away."

The man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks stepped forward and pulled the girl aside. Although he was thin, his strength was not comparable to that of a girl.

"No!" The girl threw herself on the money and cried, "This is my sister's medical treatment money, please don't take it away."

"Hmph!" The man kicked the girl away and cursed, "You bitch, who allowed you to live here? You are really not grateful at all!"

The girl grabbed his leg tightly and cried, "But I have already given you money, how can you do this?"

The man picked up the money from the ground and found it was as much as [-] yuan. This was the first time he had seen so much money. How could a beggar have so much money? You don't need to think about it to know that this was obtained through illegal means.

"Okay, this money must have come from some evil source. If I report it to the official, it will make it easier for you." The man said righteously.

"No, please, don't report it to the police!" The girl knelt on the ground and begged. If she was taken away, Meihui would have no one to take care of her, and the only fate waiting for her would be death.

"Huh, let's do it. I'll give you the fifty dollars as a reward, and I'll hand it over to the government." The man took out fifty dollars from his shirt pocket and threw it in front of the girl.

"You!" the girl gritted her teeth. She didn't expect that this man was so despicable that he wanted to keep the money for himself.

"What? Are you not romantically involved? Then I have no choice but to report it to the official." The man threatened.

The girl lowered her head, tears falling to the ground like thunder. She originally thought she could cure her sister with the money, but she didn't expect that this cunning man would take it for herself.
