"I saw it, it was you who stole it, now hand it over honestly!"
Then came the voice of another man, sounding rather young.
Wang Hao became increasingly curious and decided to squeeze into the crowd to see what was happening.
Upon a closer look, it turned out to be a group of small-time hooligans holding onto a girl about fourteen or fifteen years old.
It seemed like the girl had stolen something from the hooligans and had been caught, with the hooligans forcing her to hand over the stolen goods.
Upon a careful glance, Wang Hao recognized the girl. Wasn't she Lili, the daughter of old man Li from the neighboring village?
Old man Li had been a bachelor for decades, having never married, and Lili was a child he had taken in, raising her by his side.
Old man Li had always made a living by collecting scraps, and he found Lili by a garbage heap when she was a child, crying pitifully, so he took her home and even paid for her education.
