Chapter 72: Eyes in the Darkness
"How can you be like me?" The old lady showed a very serious expression.
"It's different?" Bai Zhi was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Are you deliberately provoking them to do something, and then report them to a crime of intentional injury?
Good guy, ginger is still hotter than ever!"
The old lady couldn't laugh or cry and said: "You kid, you are too naughty. That's not what I meant."
"Then what do you mean? If I hadn't been violent just now, I would have been the unlucky one." Bai Zhi deliberately pretended to be confused.
The old lady said earnestly: "You are different from me, an old man.
You are so powerful, if you accidentally cause something to happen to them, you will be the one in trouble.
You might even be arrested by the police. You are so young and it is not worth delaying your future for a few bad guys.
Besides, violence doesn’t really solve the problem, right?”
Bai Zhi smiled and said: "But violence can solve the people who create problems."
The old lady sighed: "There are many such people, you can't just beat them all up."
Bai Zhi raised her eyebrows: "It's not impossible. Besides, even if you want to reason with these bad guys, you have to convince them first.
Otherwise, it’s impossible for them to listen.”
"Okay." The old woman said slowly, "I can see it now, you kid is just trying to make me happy.
You actually know what's going on, go ahead and get busy, everyone is still waiting for you, and I have to go back to prepare dinner."
Bai Zhi looked at the sun that was about to set: "Because you care about me so much, I'll treat you to some noodles."
The old lady shook her head and said, "No, I can't delay your business."
"There are so many people, so I won't miss your share. It's getting late, so let's go back after eating." Bai Zhi couldn't help but help the old lady walk back.
"Um?"
Bai Zhi's heart suddenly moved, and she turned around and took a look into the woods deep in the park.
He felt as if someone was watching him secretly, but he didn't find anyone hiding there.
Return to the stall.
There seemed to be no seats outside, so Bai Zhi arranged the old lady inside the ramen cart.
"What a beautiful girl!" The old lady looked at Lucia with joy on her face.
"No matter how beautiful she is, she can't be eaten as a meal. The noodles are ready."
Bai Zhi smiled, placed the plate in front of the old lady, and handed her a pair of chopsticks.
The white noodles are piled up in a pile, drizzled with rich sauce, and placed on the side are cucumbers and carrots cut into thin strips, and chicken that is also cut into thin strips.
The old lady's eyes immediately withdrew from Lucia.
“It’s really appetizing just by looking at it.”
"Eat slowly and stay satisfied."
Bai Zhi warned, turned around and continued working with Lucia.
The old lady couldn't wait to move her chopsticks.
But after all, she was old and had bad teeth, so she ate very slowly.
It wasn't until Bai Zhi had been busy for a while that the old lady finished eating.
"Your cooking skills are really good, this is the most delicious thing I have ever eaten in my life!"
Bai Zhi said proudly: "It's necessary, everyone says so."
"Sorry to trouble you today, I really should go back." The old lady said this, but there was a look of reluctance on her face.
"Let's go back by car. It's safer." Bai Zhi helped the old lady carry the bag and went to the roadside to hail a taxi.
The old lady was unwilling at first, but seeing that Bai Zhi had already paid for the car in advance, she stopped insisting.
After she got in the car, Bai Zhi watched her leave.
Back in the ramen cart, Lucia suddenly said: "She looks lonely."
"Yeah." Bai Zhi nodded and said, "At such an old age, she has to go out to buy things and cook by herself. She is probably the only one in the family."
"She's so pitiful, should we help her?" Lucia asked sympathetically.
Bai Zhi smiled and said, "Didn't we already help?"
At first glance, this old lady looks like a typical lonely elderly person.
There are a lot of people like this in this city, and they can't be managed, and he doesn't have the extra energy.
Therefore, Bai Zhi never mentioned her name from the beginning to the end.
When the road is rough, asking for a dinner is already his limit.
Lucia frowned, showing confusion.
Bai Zhi sighed softly: "We have done what we should do, and if we continue, it should be the responsibility of this society.
The second rule of survival on earth is to never do anything beyond your capabilities."
Lucia was thoughtful and immediately asked: "What is that one?"
Bai Zhi snapped her fingers and said leisurely: "One of the laws of survival on earth is that violence cannot solve all problems."
Lucia said doubtfully: "But that's not what you just told the old lady."
"You heard it." Bai Zhi couldn't help but rub her nose and said, "Actually, the point of this sentence is communication.
Although we do not advocate the use of violence, sometimes we need to show appropriate strength to achieve the purpose of communication."
"That's good, then can we communicate again?"
A group of people, about twenty or so, came towards me.
The one who spoke was the young man who had been slapped by Bai Zhi just now. The men and women following him were about the same age and dress as him.
It can be said that the person who came is evil and aggressive.
Seeing this, the guests who were dining suddenly stood up.
The gangsters couldn't help being startled and stopped.
But then, those guests were like frightened ducks, quickly escaping from their seats and hiding far away.
"Hahaha……"
The gangsters burst into laughter.
Bai Zhi didn't take this to heart at all.
As the saying goes, everyone sweeps the snow in front of their own door and doesn't care about other people's nosebleeds.
This is the general behavior of the public.
"Young pretty boy, are you going to continue to be arrogant? If you have the ability, come over and hit me."
The one who was beaten looked at Bai Zhi proudly, his eyes full of provocation.
"That's what you said. This is the first time I've heard such a shameless request like yours." Bai Zhi reached out and untied her apron and walked out of the ramen cart.
"Leave it to me." Lucia suddenly stopped him first.
"Okay, but don't make it too exaggerated, as it will scare passers-by." Bai Zhi thought for a moment and then agreed.
Lucia's physique was already much stronger than that of the people on Earth, and after practicing for a while, it was time to give her some training.
"Here." Bai Zhi transformed into a wooden knife and came out from behind.
There were still good-hearted people in the crowd who quietly took out their phones, but when they were about to call the police, they suddenly heard screams one after another.
When I looked up, I saw that Lucia was like a tiger entering the flock of sheep, stabbing every little gangster.
Before the kind man could fully react, the twenty-odd people were already lying on the ground.
"Nani?"
The onlookers were all stunned and couldn't believe their eyes.
