Mo Wentian was stunned for a moment. This was the second time he saw this boy in white, but even so, he still had a feeling of surprise. This time the distance between the two was much closer than in the tavern. Mo Wentian
I can also see a little more clearly.
The young man in white is like a white and holy lotus. The sun shines on his shoulders and shoots out golden threads, as if to trap this lotus that should not exist in the world into the golden kingdom. Mo Wentian is helpless.
Imagine why a man can be so beautiful.
The young man walked step by step in front of Mo Wentian, and spoke to comfort the aunt who had calmed down. Finally, the aunt expressed her apology to Mo Wentian amidst her gratitude, and then turned back towards Mo Wentian step by step.
Walk to the alley.
Before this, Mo Wentian had always felt that if this young man turned into a woman, he would definitely become a disaster to the country. But at this moment, Mo Wentian looked at the young man's demeanor of a superior person and suddenly realized that,
Every move of this young man in white is not as delicate as a woman's, but is full of sunshine.
A woman's face and a man's sunshine, concentrated on the same person, did not feel any conflict at all. Instead, they blended together perfectly, creating an inexplicable attraction for everyone.
"Ah... I actually alarmed the young master... I deserve death!"
Just when Mo Wentian was in a daze, the patrol team had already arrived in front of Mo Wentian. Looking at the young man next to Mo Wentian, he couldn't help but have a trace of fear on his face. Even the warrior who was in the lead had a trace of fear on his forehead.
Broken in cold sweat.
"Haha, it doesn't matter. I was just walking around and happened to meet him. You can catch this thief and deal with it!"
After saying that, the young man flicked his arm, and the thief he was holding fell into the hands of the patrol leader. At this time, Mo Wen Tiantian finally came to his senses and looked at the face of the thief he had let go, with a look of despair.
I couldn't help but feel a little regretful and sighed softly.
"This friend, you seem to sympathize with him?"
Seeing Mo Wentian's look, the young man in white was a little curious. Logically speaking, any thief would be hated, but why did this man look so intolerable? Moreover, the boy was completely watching this chase.
Of course, he was also a little confused. Why did Mo Wentian choose to let the thief go in the first place?
"It's a pity that I originally let him go, but you still caught me."
Mo Wentian shook his head, and seemed to be blaming the young man in white for meddling in his own business. This sentence immediately caused the expressions of the several patrol officers to change. The leading warrior even drew out the long knife in his hand.
"What are you doing!"
Seeing the reactions of the policemen, the young man in white frowned coldly and glared at the warrior. The warrior also shook his hand and stood back with some embarrassment, sheathing his sword.
"Oh? If you weren't a friend and you caught the thief from the beginning and returned the money bag to the aunt, I would even suspect that you were his accomplice."
Mo Wentian became even more silent after hearing this. When he saw the thief, he seemed to see his own shadow. If it hadn't been for Xiao Lin, he might have been in jail long ago.
"I wonder how long he will be imprisoned for the current crime of theft?"
Mo Wentian was silent for a long time, and the boy in white was also very patient. He just looked at Mo Wentian with interest, waiting for the other party's explanation, but he did not expect that he would hear such a question in the end.
"In Chucheng, although the crime of stealing does not carry a heavy penalty, it still requires three years in prison."
Hearing this, Mo Wentian frowned. This thief is similar in age to Mo Wentian. After three years, he has reached adulthood. It can be said that these three years may ruin this young man's life. Although he knows the national laws
, things cannot be done, Mo Wentian still couldn't help but say something.
"Isn't it too long... He... is still a child."
"Age is not a reason for committing crimes. If children can be forgiven for committing crimes, then this country will be in chaos."
The boy in white was somewhat disapproving of Mo Wentian's words, and even looked a little disappointed. It turned out that Mo Wentian was just out of sympathy for the thief.
"So, I would like to ask, are the prisons where these children are held different from ordinary prisons?"
This question immediately caused a flash of surprise in the eyes of the young man in white. He vaguely understood what Mo Wentian wanted to say, but he did not make a sound and just shook his head gently.
"When you are young, it is the time to shape a person's future. If they are allowed to waste three years in prison, how will they survive when they regain their freedom? Will they continue to be thieves?"
At this moment, Mo Wentian seemed to speak his mind, and his words became a little excited, which made all the police officers sweat for him. This kid really dared to say anything.
If you dare to say something so casually about the governance of a country, you will be in trouble now.
However, what the police officers did not expect was that the young man in white looked shocked when he heard these words. He just stared at Mo Wentian, but could not say a word.
"Moreover, committing a crime at a young age is actually not a crime of robbery, but a crime of the country! If the country is prosperous and powerful, and everyone has food to eat and clothing to wear, who would be willing to become a thief?"
Speaking of this, Mo Wentian seemed a little sad. He had imagined countless times that if he had not been trafficked into the hands of an old cripple, maybe he would study and work like his peers, marry a wife and have children. If everyone was really rich
If there is equality, where will there be human traffickers? Where will there be old cripples who are specially trained to steal?
The young man in white didn't notice the disappointment on Mo Wentian's face, but his eyes became brighter and brighter. Looking at Mo Wentian was like looking at a naked woman posing.
However, these words undoubtedly sounded treasonous to others. The patrol leader looked horrified, thinking that this kid was really tired of living. He had already pressed his palm on the handle of the knife again, waiting for the young man in white to give the order.
, and prepared to step forward and arrest Mo Wentian.
But at the next moment, a scene happened that stunned everyone present.
The young man in white suddenly stretched out his slender fingers and hung them in front of Mo Wentian, with a friendly smile on his face.
"My name is Chu Chen. May I ask my friends what they call me?"
"Huh? My name is... Mo Yun..."
Facing Chu Chen's sudden opening remarks, coupled with his smile that could brighten up all the gloom, Mo Wentian's somewhat sad mood suddenly disappeared. Fortunately, at this time, Mo Wentian still remembered not to reveal his identity, and stretched out
After taking action, he shook hands lightly with Chu Chen.
"Brother Mo Yun, just because of your words, I will not pursue the matter this time. Haha, speaking of it, this is the first time that I have not enforced the law impartially."
Chu Chen's tone seemed to be quite regretful, but the smile on his brows still remained undiminished. He turned around and waved his hands to several patrol officers, as if to signal them to let go of the young man in their hands.
Under Mo Wentian's surprised gaze, all the patrolmen showed no objection. It seemed that what they caught was not a thief, but they just accidentally misidentified him. At the same time, Chu Chen also walked up to the young man,
Patted him on the shoulder.
"Don't do such a thing next time. Not every time you can have such luck. Maybe this is your chance to get a new life. Don't let it go in vain!"
Chu Chen's tone did not sound like he was condescending to a criminal. Instead, he was more kind and cheerful than before, making people feel good about him.
The young thief did not expect that things would develop like this in the end. He immediately burst into tears of gratitude to Chu Chen and Mo Wentian. He reached out to wipe a few tears and gradually puffed up his chest.
"Don't worry, sir. From today on, I will never steal again!"
After saying this, the young man bowed solemnly to Mo Wentian again, turned around and left. Looking at the young man's leaving figure, Mo Wentian felt a sigh in his heart. Since his rebirth, he has changed more or less.
The fate of one person is Bai Zhan, and the other is this boy. Unfortunately, in the end, Bai Zhan regarded Mo Wentian as an enemy due to misunderstanding. I wonder what will happen this time?
Chu Chen looked at the young man's back, which seemed to be full of new life, thoughtfully, then turned back to look at Mo Wentian, his expression seemed to have some respect.
"Brother Mo really has some insights. Chu Chen has learned a lesson!"
After speaking, Chu Chen gestured to the patrol officers. The leading warrior accepted the order happily and quickly retreated from the alleyway with a group of men. It was only then that Chu Chen looked at Mo Wen with burning eyes.
sky.
"Brother Mo and I hit it off immediately. I wonder if I would be honored to treat you to a drink?"
Mo Wentian did not rush to answer because he was not stupid. From the scene just now and the behavior of Han Xing in the tavern, he had already vaguely guessed who this Chu Chen was, so he hesitated.
However, Chu Chen had just done him a big favor. If it weren't for Chu Chen's relationship, those patrolmen would definitely not have let him go, so they just pondered for a moment, and Mo Wentian nodded.
Chu Chen smiled heartily, pulled Mo Wentian and walked towards a restaurant nearby. This was the center of Chu City, and the restaurants opened were naturally the best in the city, such as the Qingfeng Restaurant where Chu Chen and his two men came.
It's not lunch time yet, but probably because today is the deadline to register for the Young Heroes Association, there are already a sea of people outside, so when we get to Qingfeng Tower, it's also a lively scene.
Chu Chen took out a banknote from his arms and handed it to the waiter who was greeting the customers at the door. When he saw the banknote, a layer of ecstasy suddenly filled the waiter's face, and he quickly led the two of them in.
In a private room on the second floor, I put down the menu and left respectfully.
Chu Chen was not in a hurry to order. This was not his first time here. He came to the special food in the store casually. At this moment, Chu Chen just looked at Mo Wentian, picked up a cup of tea and impatiently drank it.
After entering the mouth, he wiped his mouth casually with his sleeve. Suddenly, the previous elegance was gone!
"Come on, brother Mo Yun, it's hard to talk outside just now. Come and tell me in detail about the 'crime other than theft'!"
Mo Wentian looked at Chu Chen at this time and was stunned.
