In midsummer, the cicadas are chirping, and the streets are noisy.

Xia Qing works in the famous fried chicken fast food restaurant Maidangdang as usual.

Nowadays, McDonald basically scans the code to order food throughout the whole process. Their work tasks are concentrated on serving meals and calling numbers, which has improved a lot of work efficiency compared to before, but the intensity of the work itself has not been much reduced.

Today is the second day after the college entrance examination.

Compared with the usual, there are many young people who have just graduated in the store, laughing and cheering in the store, full of youthful vitality.

In three years, our fog and rain will be like them...

Xia Qing was looking forward to it happily for a while, but instead fell into worry about her sister's studies-

The premise is that she can successfully finish reading these three years of words...

At this moment, a sloppy young man walked into the store.

He looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, with several obvious holes in his white T-shirt and pants, his hair was sweaty and wet, and his face was a little dirty.

After entering the store, the boy glanced around and then sat down in a seat in the corner. The parents sitting next to him quickly carried the child to a further position.

At this time, several clerks were talking. Xia Qing was the most experienced among these clerks, and most of these employees would listen to her opinions.

"Sister Qing, that homeless man doesn't seem to be planning to leave! Now that the store manager is not here, do you think, should we call the police?"

"He has not affected other customers now, as long as it does not affect business, he will not care about him."

Xia Qing whispered, "If anything goes wrong then, just go to the mall and call the security guard for help."

"Yeah, okay!"

"After a customer comes, prepare for a meal."

As fast food restaurants for low-consumption customers, McDonald and Kendai Chicken occasionally have homeless homeless vagabonds coming to visit.

In most cases, they just come over to get the air conditioner, or pick up some leftovers from customers, and some try to stay here.

Simply put, as long as the business does not affect the business, the employees will have no reason to rush people.

In fact, with the gradual advancement of socialist modernization, the chance of homeless people appearing has become lower and lower.

He should be about the same age as fog and rain, and he should be at home enjoying the care and care of his parents...

The boy sat in the corner of McDangdang's shop. From time to time, he looked at the food on the dining table far away, and watched from time to time, but once someone looked over, he lowered his head in fear.

Until the evening, the boy still had no intention of leaving.

...

Xia Qing always looked at the boy unconsciously when giving a meal. She found that he was raising his head and staring blankly at the gorgeous urban neon scene behind the glass curtain wall.

The lights are on, and the night is colorful.

There is one of these lights in thousands of houses that is for him to light up...

After get off work, she ordered a burger by herself, then served a glass of free ice water and tissues, and came to the boy with a plate, trying to say hello to him:

"I must be hungry after sitting here for so long?"

The boy still lowered his head, but his gaze was already attracted by the things on the dining plate.

"Let's have something to eat first, I'll treat you."

Xia Qing handed the plate to the boy, "You have to go home early after eating."

I hope you have at least a place to live...

After satisfying his desire to take care, Xia Qing was about to leave. When she looked back, she found that the boy picked up the burger in a paper bag and seemed to be planning to swallow it directly in the paper bag!

"Wait, wait wait!"

Xia Qing shouted to stop the boy, then followed him under the teenager's puzzled gaze, and then asked:

"Is this the first time you've eaten this? Well... this is called a burger. First of all, you have to tear this apart..."

She carefully took the burger out of the wrapping paper and placed it on the dining plate, "Here, you can take it apart and eat it now, eat it."

The boy picked up the burger under Xia Qing's guidance. After hesitating for a while, he stuffed the burger into his mouth with a scent of fragrance.

The wheat-scented chicken burger that Xia Qing ordered for him was the smallest burger in McDangdang, but even so, it would be a bit exaggerated to swallow it in one breath...

"Eat slowly! Don't choke! Come on... drink a little water first."

This is not the first time Xia Qing has done something similar, but this is the first time she has seen her exaggerated appearance as voraciously as a boy.

However, when I looked closer, I noticed that the child seemed to...

Very pretty?

At least his facial features look very delicate, his nose bridge is high, and his face is a bit dirty, but he can see that his skin is very smooth and fair, and he feels like a little puppy in a TV series, cute and cute.

"Is a burger enough? Otherwise, you..."

Xia Qing suddenly shut up her mouth halfway and noticed her abnormality. The boy looked up slightly. Xia Qing smiled at him, and at the same time, she also got up and retreated, no longer disturbing the boy's food.

When she turned around, she couldn't help but sigh softly.

Obviously, my sisters can't take care of me, why do I still have the intention to be so kind to others...

However, this kid doesn't even know how to eat hamburgers, which is no longer a lack of common sense...

Combined with his performance in conversation with him just now, I'm afraid there is something wrong with his mentality?

Then I just left him like this, would he sleep in the streets, be hit by a car, bitten to death by a wild dog, or...

Ahhh!!! My hands are too long! I can't care about it...

Xia Qing patted her cheek and decided not to think about the boy anymore.

After changing out his work clothes and saying goodbye to his colleagues, Xia Qing carried her bag and prepared to leave the front door of the restaurant.

At this time, the boy was no longer in his original seat.

Xia Qing felt relieved, but she still felt a little sad in her heart.

However, her sadness disappeared the moment she stepped out of the restaurant.

Because the boy leaned against the wall outside the restaurant. As soon as Xia Qing went out, he immediately came over and followed Xia Qing.

"...Ah, that," Xia Qing noticed that she had been being followed by the other party, and then turned around and asked, "Is there anything else you have?"

The boy didn't answer, but just opened his big eyes and stared at her curiously.

However, compared with his dazed expression before, his eyes at Xia Qing seemed more warm and he felt very happy.

His eyes flashed with bright stars, and the scene of her usually encountering stray dogs and stray cats appeared in Xia Qing's mind.

Xia Qing has an obsession with small animals that is almost obsessive-compulsive, and as long as she carries food, she will not be able to help feeding her.

Most cats only care about eating and leave after eating. They have a completely "eating you is giving you a face" attitude, and they don't even touch you, let alone masturbate;

But the stray dog ​​will be different. It will look up and wag its tail crazily at Xia Qing before it finishes eating, and rubs it around constantly.

In Xia Qing's opinion, the boy in front of him is simply the embodiment of a puppy. If he had a tail, he would definitely shake it more than anyone else at this moment.

Of course, stray dogs can be considered taking them home for maintenance, after all, they are just a matter of how many vaccines are received;

But if it's a homeless person...

Forget it.

Xia Qing decided not to pay attention to the boy in front of her and walked quickly towards the bus stop ahead, and the boy followed behind her; Xia Qing stopped, and the boy also stopped.

Although he followed, he was also very sure of the measure. He would not get too close, which made Xia Qing not easy to blame him.

After a while, the bus that Xia Qing was waiting for arrived. She took out her cell phone and hurriedly swiped the bus code, then quickly walked in and found a seat to sit down.

The boy did not get on the bus with Xia Qing. He was just watching Xia Qing sitting by the window at the bus stop.

Xia Qing met his eyes and immediately avoided guiltily.

Tsk...

Don't look at me like this... I can't afford to support you...

The bus door closed and the car slowly started. The boy in Xia Qing's light seemed to chase in a certain direction.

Although there was no longer a boy in his sight, his warm and expectant eyes kept lingering in her mind and could not be gone for a long time.

And at this moment, Xia Qing's cell phone vibrated - she received a message from her sister Wuyu.

[Have you got off work yet? Nothing happened on the road.]

[On the bus, I'll go back in a while... Have you picked up Wantao in kindergarten?]

[Received that she was playing with the children in kindergarten today, and the teacher didn't care.]

Xia Qing sent Wu Yu a cute emoticon pack of [Hahaha].

[I'm still laughing...you'll help her take a shower today! I don't care.]

【OKOK! Just leave it to me!】

Xia Qing sent Wu Yu a muscle emoticon, then closed her phone and slowly closed her eyes.
