As if he wanted to help Mu Ran test whether what the boy said was true or not, he didn't make Mu Ran wait too long, and the girl who bought the cat appeared in his shop again. "I came here to buy a toy for the cat." After explaining her purpose to Mu Ran, the girl rolled her eyes and looked around the store. "only you?"

"Yeah, I'm often the only one here." Not understanding why the girl would ask such a question, Mu Ran answered her question truthfully.

"It's boring to be alone, right?" The girl seemed to want to get close to Mu Ran, and the girl began to chat with Mu Ran, talking about family matters.

"Fortunately... It's quite interesting to have these animals around." Thinking that the girl wanted to chat with him, Mu Ran didn't think too much, and chatted with the girl casually.

"But animals can't talk either." Seemingly finding Mu Ran's statement a bit funny, the girl tilted her head to look at Mu Ran.

"Not being able to speak doesn't mean they don't have their own emotions." Remembering the boy's previous warning, Mu Ran suddenly felt a little impatient with the girl in front of him who didn't know what she wanted to say. "Don't you have to go to school? Why are you still here with me at this time?"

"I stopped reading it a long time ago, since my father found a stepmother for me." When the girl said this, there was even a smile on her face, without any anger or sadness.

"Then...you just stay at home and do nothing?" Although he felt a little sympathy for the girl because of her words, Mu Ran still doesn't like to find various excuses for his laziness and not work hard. people.

"I ran away from home. Now I'm working in that hair salon not far away." Answering Mu Ran's question with a casual attitude, the girl picked up a leather mouse.

"Then where do you live?" Mu Ran's sympathy immediately flooded with enthusiasm, completely forgetting the boy's warning, and began to care about the girl's life.

"Our boss rented a house for me, which is near the market over there. Although the house is not big, you can still raise cats." Mistaking Mu Ran for asking about these things because she was afraid that she would not be able to raise the cat well, the girl hurriedly explained .

"Your boss is not bad. It's just that in that case, do you still have a salary?" Purely out of concern, Mu Ran asked questions one after another.

"In addition to paying me 300 yuan a month, I take care of two meals a day. You may have met our boss, because he seems to have come to your place to buy dog ​​food for his own dog." I'm afraid Mu Ran won't believe what he said It was the same as the truth, the girl even said in detail the name of the hairdressing shop she was in.

"It turned out to be him..." Immediately remembering who the owner of the shop was, Mu Ran smiled and shook his head. "He is really such a stingy person... What can you do with 300 a month? If you continue like this, you won't be able to save any money at all." The owner of that shop did come to him to buy dog ​​food. After haggling for a while, Mu Ran was deeply impressed.

"Our boss has already treated me well. The job I do is just a small job. I don't have much salary to help him, or help people wash and dye their hair. What's more, he also provides me with food and lodging." Listen Mu Ran defended herself against injustice, but the girl smiled and spoke good words for her boss.

"That's also... Although he is not too harsh on you, if you continue like this, I'm afraid how to support yourself in the future will be a problem." Feeling deeply worried about the girl's future, Mu Ran suddenly felt that How important a healthy family environment is to a child who is not yet fully independent.

"Just take one step at a time." Although Mu Ran was worried about his own future and future, the girl didn't seem to care, as if she was talking about someone who had nothing to do with her. "I want this, how much is it?" Picking up a cat teaser, the girl shook it gently with her hand, smiling as she watched the colorful feathers tied on it shake back and forth because of her actions.

"You earn such a small salary yourself, why do you buy such things... I don't think you should even raise a cat." I couldn't help feeling that young people were ignorant and wasted money in their hearts. Mu Ran forgot that he was actually a cat. The fact that he is only in his 20s makes him seem like a nosy old man in his seventies and eighties.

"I have money, don't worry. How much is it?" The girl insisted on buying the cat teasing stick, but the girl actually threatened Mu Ran. "If you don't sell it to me, I can still go to someone else's house to buy it."

"Forget it, I lost to you..." After quoting the purchase price to the girl, Mu Ran still felt a little uncomfortable even though he didn't make any money. "But if I don't sell it to her, she can only spend more money in other places..." He comforted himself repeatedly in his heart, Mu Ran looked helplessly at the girl throwing down a few banknotes happily, and then He seemed quite satisfied and walked out of his store with a cat teasing stick.

When the matter developed to this point, Mu Ran didn't see anything wrong with the girl, which made him wonder if the young man wanted to beware of that seemingly ordinary girl because of some personal grievances.And since she bought the cat teaser, the girl came to Mu Ran's shop under the pretext of buying various things for cats, but she didn't buy anything, so she got acquainted with Mu Ran.

I don't understand why this girl suddenly "fell in love" with my place. At first, I wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with the girl and persuade her to make a long-term plan for her future, but gradually I found that the girl didn't seem to care about what I said. On the way, Mu Ran gave up.

In contrast, the exaggeratedly dressed, seemingly rebellious boy was more able to listen to his own advice, and often resonated with him on the same thing, which made Mu Ran suddenly miss the mysterious teenager.

There is no emotion that shouldn't be mixed, but the young man is like a student with excellent comprehension ability. He can quickly understand what Mu Ran wants to express, and give him the positive response he expected, which made Mu Ran find a kind of The joy and sense of accomplishment of being a teacher, and even fell in love with imparting experience to others and giving others directions.Remembering that he hadn't seen that mysterious boy for a long time, Mu Ran was a little curious about what the boy was usually busy with.

"What's wrong with that puppy?" The girl's question interrupted Mu Ran's train of thought. When he came back to his senses, he found that the girl was pointing in the direction behind him, so Mu Ran instinctively looked back.

"It's nothing, maybe it's because no one is playing with it, so it's a little unhappy." Turning his back, he picked up the puppy the girl pointed out from the cage, and Mu Ran wanted to check it carefully to make sure it's not sick.

"It's almost time for me to rest, so I'll leave first." The girl who reluctantly left almost every time under the various insinuations of Mu Ran took the initiative to leave today for some reason.

"Okay, be careful not to be late." After casually telling the girl, Mu Ran breathed a sigh of relief.To be honest, I don't know if it was because of the boy's warning that he had a preconceived prejudice. In short, he doesn't like this girl very much.There is often nothing to talk about between two people at all, and they always fall into a silent and awkward atmosphere.It's just that the girl insisted on not leaving every time, so he couldn't force her out.

After finally confirming that his pet was not sick, Mu Ran, who was relieved, also discovered something that made him finally understand what the boy's warning meant.While the girl was there, he obviously made a deal, and he clearly remembered that he put the cash delivered by the customer on the grid of the glass cabinet, but now the money has disappeared.

Of course, the money will not really disappear, and no one has entered the room since the money was collected, making Mu Ran have to suspect that the only person who left the room—the girl who bought the cat body.Telling himself repeatedly not to be impatient, and not to blame good people for his own mistakes, Mu Ran carefully checked the glass cabinet again.

Even if I accidentally dropped the money belt on the ground, or got it somewhere in a corner, the pile of money that was not tied up would not disappear like this without any clues.Thinking back to the abnormal situation where the girl found an excuse to turn around when she was clearly fine, and then took the initiative to say goodbye uncharacteristically, Mu Ran knew that no matter how stupid he was, there would never be so many coincidences happening at the same time in such a short period of time in the world .

"He tried so hard to remind me, is it because he already knew that the girl was a thief? But if that's the case, why didn't he just tell me that she was a thief? Why did he cover it up like that?" Suddenly Feeling as if he was being played by the boy and the girl together, the pain caused by being cheated outweighed the anger caused by the loss of property, so Mu Ran vowed to find the boy and ask him for clarification.

The things in the world are so coincidental, the boy who disappeared for a long time just appeared in front of Mu Ran when Mu Ran wanted to see him the most, and bore Mu Ran's anger with a blank face.

"Do you still have the nerve to come to me?" The hateful person stood in front of him, and Mu Ran vented all his grievances on the young man.

"What's wrong? Did someone make you angry?" The boy looked at Mu Ran with wide eyes blankly, and the boy showed an innocent expression. "I've been busy recently, so I haven't come here all this time. Why did you lose your temper with me just now when I saw you?"

"Forget it, it's okay..." The boy's reaction made Mu Ran feel that he seemed to be blaming innocent people, and he began to work hard to restore his emotions.

"What's the matter? Tell me..." No matter how stupid he is, he can tell that Mu Ran is angry, let alone as smart as this young man.Unrelentingly questioning Mu Ran, wanting to know the reason for Mu Ran's anger, he has always been docile, but the young man is surprisingly stubborn today.

"It's nothing, I was just careless." Not intending to like gossip like a woman, Mu Ran decided to swallow what just happened, and forget about it as a way to save money and avoid disaster.

"Say..." He gritted his teeth suddenly, and an expression Mu Ran had never seen appeared on the boy's face.He was obviously such a shy and cute child, but at this moment, he suddenly showed a somewhat ruthless expression, as if his cute pet suddenly stretched out its sharp claws and exposed its fangs. "What does it have to do with me? Don't wrong a good person..." Maybe because he realized that he was out of control, the boy became the kid who loved to laugh and act like a baby to Mu Ran again.

"It's the girl you told me about, who took my money when I wasn't prepared." It was obvious that he was the one who provoked the incident first, but Mu Ran felt like he was riding a tiger for some reason.

"Oh? How much?" First he showed a somewhat surprised expression, and then the boy sneered again. "Didn't I warn you earlier?"

"Speaking of this, I would like to ask you. Since you can think of reminding me, why didn't you just tell me that her hands and feet are not clean. Or is it that she and you are all together? , you came to my place first, and then let her wait for the opportunity to act?" I don't know why I said such a thing, but Mu Ran thought that what he said was quite reasonable, and such an idea also made sense. It made him shudder suddenly.
