Chapter 385: The Thief Cries “Catch the Thief”

At this moment, the Old Professor-like old man also stood out, indignantly saying, "Big Brother, don't worry, as long as your money and phone were lost on the car, everyone will definitely be able to help you find them."

Then, he shouted to the crowd, "Thief on the car, listen to me. I know you steal things to survive.

But it's fine if you usually steal from rich people, and it's barely acceptable for ordinary people, but you absolutely cannot steal money from disabled people; that would bring down the wrath of heaven.

It wasn't easy for this Big Brother to earn his money. How many pairs of shoes does he have to repair to earn 3000 yuan? This is his child's tuition.

If you take the money, you might ruin his child's life. Even if you're not a good person, you should have your own bottom line as a human being.

As long as you are a person of flesh and blood, as long as you still have a bit of conscience, quickly return the money to him. I can guarantee that Big Brother will not pursue your responsibility.

If you remain unrepentant, once the police get involved, you can just wait to spend your life in jail."

This old man, with the image of an Old Professor, spoke with such righteousness, giving people a feeling that he could be completely trusted.

Speaking of this, he then said to everyone present, "Please cooperate and give this Big Brother a chance, and also give that thief a chance.

Everyone close your eyes. I will count to 60, allowing the thief to throw the money in the aisle. As long as the money is returned, everyone will pretend nothing happened.

Everyone listen to my command, start closing your eyes."

After he finished speaking, he was the first to close his eyes, and then began to count, "1… 2… 3…"

Seeing him like this, the passengers on the car also actively cooperated, closing their eyes one after another, wanting to use their actions to move the thief and make him return the stolen items to the cripple.

The girl in white cooperated even more. Although she was standing, she tightly closed her two beautiful big eyes.

Looking at her extremely serious appearance, Ye Bufan felt a slight touch in his heart. This child was indeed too kind. At the same time, he himself closed his eyes.

However, with his Divine Sense, closing his eyes did not prevent him from seeing everything clearly inside the car.

When the Old Professor counted to ten, the cripple suddenly opened his eyes. He first looked around the carriage, confirming that no one was paying attention to him.

Then he took out a wallet and a phone, and with extreme speed, stuffed them into the girl in white's sling bag, completely devoid of the heartbroken expression he had just moments ago.

Moreover, this guy was clearly a master of the Dao.

Let alone everyone having their eyes closed, even if they had their eyes open, it would probably be difficult for anyone to notice his actions; he was simply too fast.

"My goodness, so all this was just to frame someone!"

Ye Bufan himself was originally a university student, and his own sister also worked and studied outside. Plus, this girl in white was beautiful and kind, and he didn't want such a good person to suffer, so he decided to help her.

After the cripple finished all this, he patted the old man's shoulder, indicating that everything was done, and then closed his eyes again.

These people were indeed all together.

With a thought, Ye Bufan put the wallet and phone from the girl in white's bag into his Storage Ring, and then put them into the old man's pocket.

Soon, the old man finished counting to 60, and all the passengers in the carriage opened their eyes.

Everyone looked around the car almost simultaneously, wanting to see if the thief had a change of heart and threw the wallet and phone back.

The result disappointed everyone; the aisle was empty, with no trace of any wallet or phone.

"Bastard, this thief is too shameless! Everyone specifically gave him Face, and he still won't return the wallet…"

"If I find this kind of person, I'll break his legs…"

"No matter what, we must find the thief and send him to prison. This kind of person deserves to be in jail for life…"

Righteous indignation erupted in the carriage for a moment, and everyone condemned this ungrateful thief.

The cripple then started crying again, "Oh heaven, this damned thief, how can you be so heartless? That's my son's tuition!

Quickly return it to me! Without the money, how will my son go to school? He's a good student with excellent character and academics; he can't be ruined like this."

This guy's acting was indeed superb. He cried and wailed, snot and tears flowing, looking incredibly pitiful.

At this moment, the old man, with a Face full of Qi, stood out again, "Damned thief, you're refusing our kindness, aren't you?

Everyone already gave you a chance, but unfortunately, you didn't know how to cherish it, so don't blame us for being merciless."

He said to the cripple, "Big Brother, what's your phone number? I'll dial it for you.

Maybe the thief just got the items and hasn't had time to transfer them yet. As soon as the phone rings, we can immediately find him.

Even if he has already turned off the phone, there's no need to worry. At worst, everyone can just drive the car to the police station and ask the police to uphold

justice for us.

At that time, everyone in the car will be searched one by one. I don't believe he can hide it anywhere else."

The girl in white nodded and said, "Yes, Uncle, you don't need to worry. As long as the thief is still on the car, the items won't escape.

I've been listening to the movements inside the car, and no one opened a window, nor was the car door opened. Your wallet and phone must still be on the car."

Hearing the two of them speak, the other people in the car echoed, and the cripple wiped his tears and said, "Kind people, thank you. You must find that money. That's my son's tuition."

"Don't worry, Big Brother, I'll call now."

The old man finished speaking and took out his phone, "Big Brother, what's your phone number?"

The cripple said gratefully, "139…"

The old man entered the phone number and then pressed the dial button. Soon, a melodious song sounded in the carriage.

"My old father, my dearest person…"

The cripple said excitedly, "That's right, that's the ringtone my son set for me."

"This bastard, he really didn't have time to turn it off. Now he can't run away…"

Everyone thought this in their hearts, and following the sound of the music, they looked over, and then were astonished to find that the music was actually coming from the old man's pocket.

The old man was holding his phone, his eyes filled with smugness, thinking that everything he did was flawless.

But seeing everyone looking at him, he immediately felt that something was wrong, and then realized that the phone's ringtone was coming from his own body.

Under everyone's gaze, he reached in and pulled out a phone and a wallet from his pocket. The atmosphere instantly became awkward.

"What's going on? Is the thief this old man?"

"He's putting on a show, but it turns out he's the thief crying 'stop thief'. At such an old age, why not do something good instead of being a thief…"

"That's impossible, right? I see him as an Old Professor. How could he steal someone else's things?"

The people in the carriage discussed animatedly, their gazes focused on the old man's Face, waiting for him to give an explanation.

The cripple was originally poised, gathering his strength, waiting to continue acting according to the script to catch the girl in white.

But he never expected the plot to change. The phone and wallet he personally stuffed into the girl's bag had actually ended up in his accomplice's pocket.

The sudden change left him somewhat at a loss, standing there dumbfounded.
