Juliana’s workshop Chapter 60: Loss money


  In the evening, Julius and Pasta both returned. It's just that there are obvious differences in the mental outlook and state of the two. Pasta hasn't changed much from when he went out early in the morning, but what Julius said was completely different. If Julius was an air-filled ball when he went out, then he is now leaking, from the ball to a few pieces of broken skin, and there is no chance of patching it back.

   Julius was dejected and humped when he entered the door. When he saw Lulunaka, his waist bends harder and he can't straighten up at all.

  Lulunaka didn't feel surprised at what Julius looked like. "How did you get today?" she asked Pasta.

   "No copper plate is left." Pasta said, and then took a purse from his pocket. This money bag was given to Julius by Lulu Naka this morning, but now, like its owner, it has become a shriveled rag. "As for why this money bag is in my hand, I didn't get it from him."

   Julius remained silent on the side, as if ashamed to speak.

  "That means you took it back from someone else, but what about the money?"

   Pasta shook his head, "It's long gone. Half of it was cheated away, and the other half was stolen with the purse."

   Pasta threw the money bag to Lulunaka, "Fortunately, it's just a pile of copper plates and some silver coins. If it's gold coins, then your loss can be huge."

   Lulunaka held the money bag in her palm and pressed it into the shape of a small ball, "Isn’t my loss now small? For ordinary people, it’s about a few months of expenses. If you lose it, even eating is a problem-are you right, Julius?"

   Julius didn't answer, just lowered his head. Ward came in through the door, tugged Julius's trouser legs with his teeth, and barked at him a few more times.

   "Even Ward is comforting you." Lulunaka smiled and shook her head. "You can't do anything with your frustrated look, even a dog can see it. Although Ward doesn't It’s not a real dog."

   "It's my fault, all the money was cheated and stolen by others." Julius said in a low voice. It seems that he realized his mistakes. Now is not the time when he can be stubborn and stubborn.

   "I am very interested in how you were scammed of money and how the money was stolen." Lulunaka crossed her legs and sat cross-legged on the counter, looking very interested." It’s not strange to be deceived. To be honest, I was deceived by botched scams before, and it took decades to realize that I was deceived; but the fact that the money was stolen may be a bit unreasonable... …What kind of thief approached you that caused you to be taken away without any defense?"

   Julius didn't reply. What happened today is already a shameful memory for him. Now that he is asked to tell these things once, he really can't say it-he doesn't know how to say it.

   "All the scams and traps that a rookie can encounter, he was caught." Pasta said to Lulunaka. He returned to the inside of the counter and opened the door to the inner hall. "I and What you said, even if you have killed someone, it doesn't mean that he is not a rookie. As for a rookie like him, apart from killing someone and having a little combat ability, he is no different from other brand-new young people."

   Pasta returned to the inner room and went to prepare dinner. Only Lulunaka and Julius were left in the shop, as well as the dog Ward. The atmosphere here seemed to freeze, without any sound or movement. Lulunaka was sitting on the counter, her eyes closed and she didn't know what she was thinking. Julius stood by the door, looking like a kid who was in trouble outside and didn't dare to go home and face his parents. And Ward, wagging his tail, looking at Lulunaka from time to time, and then at Julius. Finally, Ward also entered the inner hall and went to ask Pasta to beg for food. It might be a big bone, or it might be a few fruits that were rotten on the surface.

   When only Lulunaka and Julius were left in the store, Lulunaka spoke, "This is what I expected. I didn’t expect you to get that little money in Rat Road. What happened to the place, but I didn’t expect that the money would fall into other people’s hands so quickly.” Lulunaka sighed, “The world is sinister. There is no warmth at all in the rat road... a The young man took all his money away. I remember the previous practice was to leave a few copper plates for someone to eat a meal."

  Lulunaka looked at Julius and asked, "What do you think of Rat Road? Isn’t it a very interesting place?"

   Julius answered after a while, "That kind of place is not interesting at all..."

   Lulunaka chuckled, "Do you think that the place like the rat road is very different from your impression of this city?"

   Julius did not answer.

   "Be happy, you are so pathetic now." Lulunaka smiled, "It's just that you lost money. You are lucky. Someone is in that kind of place. Don't you lose it? It’s just money. Young women lose their bodies, and reckless men lose their lives... Selling their lives, selling their lives, selling their self-esteem and soul. You have just lost the least important thing, and you still have the precious things on your body. . But I think this is also because Pasta is secretly protecting you, otherwise you might be tricked into giving someone your life."

   Julius raised his head and looked directly at Lulunaka, "Why is there such a place?"

  Lulunaka touched her chin, but her smooth, white chin didn't have a beard. "This question you asked is very interesting. Let me think about how to answer you."

   She got down from the counter, walked to the side of the exhibition stand, and sorted out the odd-shaped goods on it. She turned her back to Julius, and after a while, she said to Julius: "The rat road is under this city. What else is underground in this city? Sewers, a healthy city, in addition to elevated water channels, it also needs Sewers can prevent this city from getting sick frequently."

   Lulunaka looked at Julius, who was puzzled, "I may be too early for you. After all, I just came out of the countryside. I have to let Pasta teach you. Recognizing words and reading..."

   As Lulunaka said, Julius is indeed a rural boy who didn't know a few words, and he didn't quite understand what Lulunaka said about the sewer. "What does the sewer have to do with the rat path?" he asked.

   "In King's Castle, where there is a sewer, there may not be a rat passage, but where there is a rat passage, there must be a sewer." Lulunaka said, "You have already been to the rat road, and you should understand it, Rat Tao is actually a part of the sewer, but it has become a place for people to move around~IndoMTL.com~ Julius listened quietly to Lulunaka’s words without interrupting.

   Lulunaka continued, "All sewage and filth go to the sewer, and the rat passage has the same function. The brighter the place, the thicker the shadow. The rat passage connects the sewer and There are all sorts of strange small spaces in the slums, underground streets and abandoned underground tombs all over the King’s Fort... What do you think is the most suitable place to use?"

   Julius didn't answer Lulunaka's question, and he didn't know how to answer.

   "Speaking of the things that are not glamorous and beautiful are discharged as dirt, leaving only a perfectly clean city." Lulunaka laughed, "As for the dirt, is there innocent People, that’s not what the rulers of this city care about."

   "Has no one thought of changing that kind of place?" Julius asked.

   "Can you try?" Lulunaka's words left Julius speechless, and he didn't know how to answer. He could no longer say "I want to be a hero" to Lulunaka who he met for the first time.

   Being a hero is heavier than he thought.

   "It seems that the underground world is not a small excitement for you. At night, that kind of place really wakes up-and the rancid smell makes your nose even worse." Lulunaka walked towards the inner hall. Go, and never forget to turn around and say to Julius: "You haven't forgotten what I said to you last night and this morning? If you want to eat these days, you have to solve it yourself. There is nothing left in the shop. Here you are."

   Lulunaka smiled at Julius, "I don't think you are so cheeky. After owing me a bag of money, continue to ask the family what you want to eat?"
