Chapter 33 – Sun Village

Su Jishi didn’t find out until the next day that her hammer had landed on Mu Xiulun’s car.

She hid it in her garter all night and must have dropped it when she tightened her shoelaces.

When she got up, it must have fell down her skirt and landed on the passenger seat. In the spur of the moment, she didn’t notice it slipping from its confines!

She thought Mu Xiulun would ask something, but after waiting all day, the former financial backer did not send her any message.

Didn’t he see it?

Probably yes, she thought. The space around the seat was after all so wide that maybe the hammer just tumbled underneath it and dodged his bullet eyes!

Su Jishi felt a little shame. The geological hammer had been with her for many years. Bumps and scratches marred the the it’s body. The handle was no better either. She wrapped layers of duct tape around it to keep it from breaking apart…

It looked like trash — but it was one of her precious treasures!

She took a hammer to defend herself last night, but she didn’t think Mu Xiulun would be harmless and unexpectedly accommodating.

Before her precious hammer could come out of its case, she found herself in a very interesting position.

Ah, forget it, forget it! There’s no use thinking about it!

She remembered that when she was “dating” last night, she felt very curious about the strange place name “Sun Village” mentioned by the hotel personnel.

She turned on the search engine, entered the words Sun Village, and then pressed the Enter key. Instantly, numerous search results appeared on the computer screen.

“Sun Village, a welfare organization connected to an international NGO, aims to provide necessary assistance to homeless children whose parents are imprisoned, and to ensure their right to accommodation, medical care and equal education.”

Su Jishi whispered this line of words on the web page.

It turned out that Sun Village was a children’s aid station. After some convicts are imprisoned, their children are left without a guardian. For some reason, these children are not acceptable to go to orphanages and had no relatives willing to accept them.

If they were left unattended, they would be left rotting on the streets. Eventually, they would either freeze to death, die of starvation, or be tricked and manipulated by other criminal groups, thus becoming social hidden dangers.

Opening the official website, the children’s photos were hung on the front page. Here, they can eat to their heart’s delight and wear warm clothes, have clean and bright dormitories, have a wide playground, and most of all, get primary education every child needed.

They are different in age, but have the same bright smiles.
