C190 (1/2)
Carrying the little alligator in his arms, Du Lei went to a nearby grocery store. Most of the shops here had public telephones placed in front of them.
”Can I make a call?”
Du Lei trembled as he cried in his heart, he had never been in such dire straits.
”Call?”
The aunty who was eating looked at Du Lei suspiciously. If it wasn't for the fact that Du Lei was tall and had a pure white face, she would have kicked him out already.
”Hmm, all of my finances have been robbed by someone. I ran out with great difficulty and wanted to borrow a phone to call my friends to come and pick me up! ”
As Du Lei spoke, tears and mucus flowed down his face, causing the aunty to suddenly feel it.
”No, go and fight it yourself!”
”Thank you!”
Du Lei thanked him immediately, as people on the street looked at him with doubtful eyes.
He did not call his parents and He Ruyue. He was already in such a miserable state and would only make them worry.
”Zhang San, what are you doing?”
”I just got off work, boss. What happened?”
”Where's Niu Si?”
”He's by my side!”
”The two of you, quickly take some money and fly to Dongliang City, Yunjiang Province. ”I'm here …”
Du Lei reported his general location and then hung up.
”Young man, do you want some food?”
The old lady had a face full of good intentions, she felt that Du Lei must be really hungry, if not he would not always be looking at her table.
”This, is not good right! I don't have any money on me! ”
Du Lei looked embarrassed.
”It's alright, big sister, I don't care about this little bit of food. ”Come, I'll get you a pair of chopsticks.”
The grandma immediately gave herself a level lower and happily went to get the utensils.
In fact, there weren't many dishes on the table, even though Du Lei didn't eat much, but he was really hungry now.
It would have to wait until Zhang San and Niu Si arrived.
However, the aunty did not expect Du Lei, who was originally hiding in his bosom, to actually crawl out.
”This … this is a crocodile?”
The aunty exclaimed and looked around, she looked at Du Lei suspiciously, and started to suspect Du Lei's identity.
”Big Sis, this is my pet. Don't you believe me if you touch it, it won't bite.”
Deep within Du Lei's palm, the little crocodile raised its head and bared its fangs at the aunty.
”Oh my god, can't you even bite me? You didn't steal from the country to protect animals, did you? ”
The woman's body slowly leaned outwards.
”Really, I'm an antique seller. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been robbed.” And they won't leave me such a little crocodile, will they? ”
Du Lei laughed bitterly and said with a sincere expression.
The aunty looked at Du Lei with suspicion. She thought for a while, then suddenly slapped her thigh, pointed at Du Lei and said, ”I remember now. Your name is Du Lei right?”
”Big Sis, you know me?”
Du Lei was surprised, he never expected to meet his own fans here.
”It's really you?”
The old lady's face turned cold, she picked up a broom and started hitting Du Lei.
