Mu Cheng walked quietly towards the thief. When he arrived in front of the thief, Mu Cheng patted his shoulder.
The thief trembled and cold sweat broke out on his forehead as he thought to himself.
"I'm finished. The first time I became a thief, I got caught. I'm really f * cking unlucky."
The thief immediately turned his head and looked left and right, but didn't find anyone.
"Strange, there's no one here. Then, who patted my shoulder?" The thief wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and was surprised.
After another look, the thief confirmed that there was no one around, so he prepared to take a few more items to escape.
When the thief stuffed in another two or three items, Mu Cheng patted his other shoulder.
The thief's heart turned cold again. When he turned around, he still didn't see anyone.
"No, no one was there. Why did I get slapped on my shoulder again?"
The thief rolled his eyes in panic, and his hands started to shake.
"Could it be that there's something, something, or something in this supermarket?"
Thinking of this, the thief was even more frightened, his legs trembling uncontrollably. If it wasn't a ghost, then who was the one who patted his shoulder just now?
Zi Ling stood at the side and watched, a smile hanging on her lips, the look of nervousness on the thief's face was truly interesting.
"Ah Buddha, ah Buddha!"
The thief was extremely frightened. There was a ghost eyeing him, so he stood on the spot and mumbled indistinctly.
"Buddha bless me, don't let those filthy things follow me. I've never done anything bad, Buddha is enlightened!"
Mu Cheng felt embarrassed and cursed silently in his heart.
"Your sister! She hasn't done anything bad. Could it be that stealing things isn't a bad thing?"
After muttering to himself, the thief looked around again. After finding no one, he slowly walked towards the door.
Mu Cheng licked his lips and followed him. Zi Ling also walked over, wanting to see how Mu Cheng would punish this thief.
When the thief arrived beside the cashier and was about to leave the house, Mu Cheng hurriedly stepped forward and used his leg to trip the thief.
After the thief fell, all the goods he had hidden in his clothes fell to the ground. The thief's heart almost stopped beating as cold sweat dripped down. He knew that he was doomed this time.
Mu Cheng immediately walked behind a shelf and looked around: "Zi Ling, remove all the spells on my body."
Zi Ling, who was standing not far from Mu Cheng, immediately made a single-handed technique to remove the invisibility on Mu Cheng's body.
After the invisibility spell was dispelled, Mu Cheng smiled and dashed towards the door.
Just then, Mu Changsheng had already stood up, he walked out of the cashier counter, and looked at the young man who fell to the ground, his expression panicking. He had already guessed what was going on, and just as he was about to speak, a familiar voice came from behind him.
"Aiya!"
Mu Cheng walked over with a regretful expression as he looked at the young man on the ground.
"Didn't I ask you to bring a shopping basket? "Why are you not taking it? Alright, now you've fallen."
The young thief was shocked. What was this? He had never seen this brat just now, so why did he suddenly say something like this? Was it really that strange?
Mu Cheng slowly walked up and squatted down. He picked up the items that dropped on the floor and placed them on the cashier.
"Dad." Mu Cheng looked at Mu Changsheng and the corner of his mouth slightly curled up, "These are the things he wants to buy, go and calculate them for him."
Immediately after, Mu Cheng looked at the stunned man on the ground with a smile and said, "These are the things you want to buy, right?"
The young man slowly came back to his senses and carefully savored Mu Cheng's words before standing up, scratching his head as he awkwardly replied.
"Yes, yes, yes, these are the things I want to buy."
At this point, he had to go with the flow, he had to say it, and he had to say it, or else he would be treated as a thief, a few days of detention at the very least, and perhaps even months of confinement. In contrast, he was willing to spend some money since he was the one who had taken the goods.
How could Mu Changsheng not know that this man was a thief? He originally wanted to go up and capture him, but since Mu Cheng said so, he did not say anything.
Mu Cheng's actions not only punished the thieves, but also sold the goods. It could be said that he killed two birds with one stone.
Zi Ling watched on the side with a smile on her beautiful face. This was the first time she had seen such an intelligent solution.
"Fine, I'll settle the bill for you." Mu Changsheng said calmly as he looked at the young man who was drenched in cold sweat and walked towards the cashier.
"Hai."
The nervous young man stretched out his hand to wipe his cold sweat. With a submissive appearance, he nodded his head repeatedly.
The young man was very depressed. This was a classic case of stealing a chicken to pick up rice.
Looking at the youth's expression, Mu Cheng secretly snickered in his heart. This kind of punishment was still too light. If he were to report this to the police, his fate would be even worse.
Mu Changsheng skillfully used a scanner to calculate the prices of the items. A few minutes later, a list of numbers appeared on the display screen.
"One hundred and sixty-three yuan!"
Mu Changsheng looked at the numbers, thought for a while and said.
"I'll take it as a hundred and sixty."
"Huh?" Although it was only 100 or so, the young man was shocked. This amount of money seemed to be a lot for him.
The youth was stunned for a moment before he reached into his pocket. He slowly fumbled around for a while and took out a shabby wallet. He opened his wallet and found a lot of hospital invoices inside. He carefully put the invoices into another pocket.
After rummaging through the wallet, he took out one hundred and sixty yuan and put it on the cashier. The young man kept looking at the money with a reluctant expression.
"Sigh, with a month's salary suddenly going to be so much, how are those pitiful children in the family going to live?"
The young man complained to himself in his heart. If it wasn't for him being hot-headed and committing such a theft, he wouldn't have ended up like this.
Although the young man's voice was soft, Mu Cheng and Mu Changsheng could hear him clearly.
Mu Cheng frowned as he looked at the young man without saying a word.
Mu Changsheng took the one hundred sixty yuan in his hand, and after pausing for a while, he took out his bag and placed the items inside.
The young man took the big bag of goods, his eyes filled with reluctance, and nodded at Mu Changsheng, then slowly walked out the door.
Mu Cheng looked at the man walking out and also took a step forward, wanting to follow him.
"Little Cheng, where are you going?"
Seeing that Mu Cheng was about to follow him out, Mu Changsheng hurriedly called out to him. Mu Cheng turned his head and looked at his father, muttering to himself.
"That person seems to be in a difficult situation. I want to go and take a look as well."
"Mu Cheng felt that the man's life seemed to be very difficult with all the hospital invoices as well as his shabby wallet and pants." Take this sixty dollars and give it to him if necessary. "
This 60 yuan was pretty much the price of a profit. Giving the money that Mu Changsheng earned to him was equivalent to not making any money at all.
However, Mu Changsheng was a soft-hearted person. If it was really difficult for that person, he would help him if he could, and he would do his best to help.
"En!"
Mu Cheng took the money and nodded to his father. Then, he looked behind him and walked out the door.
Mu Cheng looked behind him, wanting Zi Ling to follow him. Zi Ling naturally understood Mu Cheng's intention, and slowly followed after him.
Mu Cheng walked out and looked around. He found the man's figure and followed him quietly.
"Zi Ling?"
As Zi Ling had used her Invisibility Spell, Mu Cheng was unable to see her at all, so she could only shout in the air.
"I've always been by your side."
A sweet voice came from Mu Cheng's right, and that voice belonged to Zi Ling.
"I thought you lost it!" Mu Cheng said with a smile as he followed the man.
"I'm not that stupid!" Zi Ling's somewhat confident voice came out once more.
She slowly started to get familiar with Mu Cheng, and wasn't as cold as the first time.
Mu Cheng smiled but didn't say anything. He carefully followed the man in front of him with both eyes, afraid that he would be noticed.
After following for ten minutes, they reached a relatively remote area. There were less pedestrians and the buildings by the side of the road were not as exquisite.
The young man looked at the bag in his hand and sighed. Occasionally, he would look back.
This gave Mu Cheng a lot of difficulty to follow him. If he were to be seen by Mu Cheng, he would definitely be able to recognize him at a glance.
Mu Cheng looked around and saw no one. "Zi Ling, cast the invisibility spell."
Following that, the number of passersby that would walk on it became fewer and fewer. Mu Cheng didn't want to be discovered by the young man, so he could only request for Zi Ling to step in once again.
"Alright."
Zi Ling once again used the invisibility technique on Mu Cheng, causing Mu Cheng's figure to immediately disappear.
When Zi Ling was living in the Eastern plane, she cultivated hard every day, fought against beasts, and protected the Zongtian Sect.
She would get a little tired of the strain and come to this new place now.
Zi Ling was more cheerful after living a different life. She actually felt that following others was pretty interesting.
As his body became invisible, Mu Cheng's tracking became much easier.
After walking for half an hour with the young man, Mu Cheng finally arrived at a small flat area with Zi Ling.
The houses here were almost only one story. They were all made of coarse concrete houses. The alleyway was littered with garbage, and many flies were surrounding them. When people moved, they would let out a buzzing sound.
Mu Cheng and Zi Ling could not help but cover their noses and mouths, deeply frowning. The environment here was too terrible.
As for the young man, he walked as if nothing had happened. He seemed to be used to this sort of unpleasant odor. Besides bitterness, there was no other expression on his face.
The man came to a room, took out his key, opened a wooden metal door, and walked in.
At this time, Zi Ling waved her hand and cast a spell on Mu Cheng, allowing him to see himself. This way, both parties would be able to see each other.
The young man carried his exhausted body into the house. A girl with a ponytail immediately rushed over and hugged the young man's leg.
