Chapter 257: Righteously Capturing the Thief
The thief, seeing Xiao Yifei’s reaction and thinking he was scared and retreating, revealed a smug expression on his face. He turned his head and looked at the rural woman.
"Did you hear me? Give me your bag! Otherwise, I’ll take your life today!"
The thief’s face turned fierce as he menacingly threatened the rural woman.
"I won’t give it! I won’t give it to you! I’m not afraid of you! Not at all!"
The rural woman clearly had no experience and didn’t know how to handle the situation. Her voice even carried a crying tone as she tightly clutched her bag, refusing to let go.
"You won’t give it to me? Just try not giving it to me!"
The thief sneered, holding a sharp dagger and slowly stepping toward the rural woman, who, terrified, kept stepping back. Every time she stepped back, the people next to her quickly frowned and hurriedly moved aside, fearing they would be implicated. The rural woman continued to retreat, but on a bus, how could there possibly be any more room to move back! Finally, she was pushed into a corner with nowhere else to retreat.
"Please! Help me! I’ve worked hard here for a year, been swindled out of my wages, and now someone wants to steal my bedding. If my bedding is taken, where will I live?"
With a crying voice, her eyes full of pleading, the rural woman looked at the people nearby, begging them for help.
However, the bystanders merely watched indifferently, as if to say as long as it didn’t involve them, anything was acceptable. Even the bus driver seemed as if he hadn’t heard anything at all, his face completely cold.
