Su Wan breathlessly chased the thief across three blocks. The man who stole her things was a boy who looked only fourteen or fifteen years old. Su Wan was so angry and speechless after chasing him.
Who would have thought that, at a good age to study and receive education, the other party would start a career as a thief!
I really don’t know how to comment on this!
Su Wan secretly hated herself for not having learned the local language yet. She wanted to shout "Catch thief" but didn't know how to say it.
"Don't run! Give me back my wallet!"
That was all her belongings. If they were lost like this, would she and Nuonuo have to sleep on the street in three days? !
Su Wan was extremely anxious. He used all his strength and ran forward like crazy.
But just as he was about to catch up, suddenly a large maglev car drove past, and Su Wan had to stop.
When I looked again, I could not find any trace of that little bastard!
The street ahead is winding, who knows where the thief who stole the wallet slipped into? !
Su Wan sighed dejectedly and decided not to chase him. She squatted down, rubbed her aching legs, and then could only helplessly walk towards the small hotel where she had paid the rent.
In order to avoid being pursued, Su Wan only paid for three days of hotel stay. Su Wan was fortunate at the time because the hotel was small and there was no need to swipe his ID card. As long as he had money, he could check in.
But now, she didn’t even have time to buy an energy box for Nono’s battery life, and now she is penniless!
The money left in the hotel can only support the supply of nutrient solution for a few days. Is she going to watch Nuo Nuo continue to hibernate due to lack of energy
In this unfamiliar time and space, if it weren't for Nuonuo's company, Su Wan felt that she might have been sold to someone else as a slave.
Once Nuonuo falls into hibernation, she won't even have anyone to chat with.
It feels like a person is in the vast ocean. If he loses the last piece of driftwood, he will be drowned.
She had never been so afraid of being alone as she was now.
Su Wan moved away slowly, feeling that he was really unlucky.
No matter what, life must go on, and she has to at least support herself and Nono.
Su Wan stroked the silver ring on her left ring finger. The tiny diamond sparkled in the sunlight.
Su Wan pursed her lips and silently cheered herself up.
…
Three days later, Su Wan had to leave the hotel with Nuo Nuo.
A penny can make a hero fall. The hotel also needs to do business. It is impossible for it to reserve a room for Su Wan to live in for free.
However, the hotel owner was a kind person. She felt sorry for Su Wan and found a place for her to earn money while providing accommodation and meals.
The ship that sails from Baishan District to Fenglan Island every day is recruiting staff because of the increase in passenger flow in recent days.
People like Su Wan who can't carry things on their shoulders or lift things with their hands can just work as a waiter to clean up the debris.
Under the current circumstances, it is good to have a place to stay, so Su Wan immediately applied for the job according to the instructions of the hotel owner.
I didn’t expect that this job opening would require an identity card to prove your background!
Su Wan stood in front of the old man in charge of recruitment, twisting her fingers constantly, looking embarrassed and helpless.
"I lost my ID card and wallet. Could you please take me in?"
The old man frowned when he heard this. Where did this dark and thin girl learn the interstellar common language
Although I understand the meaning, why does it sound so weird? !
The old man looked at Su Wan for a long time and felt that this dark and fragile-looking girl did not look like a murderer, so he finally kept her.
The old man glanced at Su Wan and spoke arrogantly.
"You can stay, but your salary will be half of what others make. And since you come here to work without an ID, we will all be at risk for you. You can only live in the lower cabin of the ship and cannot go up there at will."
Su Wan looked at Nuo Nuo's synchronized lip translation and immediately nodded in surprise. When she saw the expression of the old applicant, she thought she had been rejected!
As long as I can stay, what does it matter even if I pay a small price for it!
A little less money is nothing, at least the problem of food and accommodation is solved, Su Wan doesn’t mind other problems at all.
Su Wan nodded repeatedly at the old applicant in surprise and smiled unconsciously.
"Thank you for taking me in!"
Seeing the smile on Su Wan's face, the old man was stunned and couldn't help but stare at Su Wan for a few more seconds.
This girl has really beautiful eyes, clear as a pool of spring water, so clear that it makes people's heart palpitate.
And when she smiles, she gives people a particularly comfortable feeling.
It's such a pity to lose such a beautiful pair of eyes.
…
Su Wan immediately took Nuo Nuo and moved to their new residence.
Just as Su Wan expected, the environment in the bottom cabin was indeed terrible. It was originally used to store sundries, and no one had lived there for a long time, so it looked damp, dirty and messy.
But the biggest advantage is that there is no one else here except her and Nono. She usually communicates with Nono in Chinese and it won't attract other people's attention.
Moreover, the area of this house is not small. Su Wan feels that if she tidies up the clutter, she can free up a large space, which is more than enough for three or four people to live in.
Now that he has a place to stay, Su Wan is no longer as afraid of his future life as before.
This job provided food and accommodation, so Su Wan used his remaining belongings to buy a cheap energy box for Nuonuo. According to Nuonuo, as long as it was not overused, it could last for more than a month.
Working on the passenger ship was easier than Su Wan had imagined. Su Wan was mainly responsible for clearing and organizing the cargo on the second to last floor of the passenger ship.
With Nono around, it was like two people doing the work of one person. Su Wan could often spare some extra time to learn the interstellar common language with Nono.
If she wants to find Jiang Xuecheng, she must study the language here seriously, otherwise everything will be in vain.
Even so, Su Wan didn't dare to order Nuo Nuo around too much. After all, the first month's salary had not been paid yet, and Su Wan was afraid that Nuo Nuo would suddenly run out of energy.
In some ways, Nuonuo is like a pillar that makes Su Wan feel at ease. She needs Nuonuo's company.
…
After Su finished counting today's goods late, she hummed a tune she had composed and reached out to close the warehouse door full of goods.
Su Wan locked the door of the warehouse, and just as she was about to turn around, suddenly, a knife was pressed against her neck.
Su Wan's body suddenly shook, and his breathing stagnated in an instant.
The night was extremely quiet, with only a faint light emitting a dim glow.
Being at the mercy of others, Su Wan dared not even breathe and could only try his best to remain calm.
In the silence, Su Wan heard a very low voice.
"help me."
