Chapter 24: Seniors and children

New York has been unpredictable for days.
The gloomy sky enveloped the steel jungle of more than 20 million people. People's mood seems to be infected. Pedestrians hurried on the road with their umbrellas expressionless, and the crowded vehicles ran out of impatience from time to time.
Occasionally, a yellow taxi driven by an old driver will flash a small splash when passing over some pavement. Pedestrians who are almost affected begin to yell ...
Li's handicraft shop.
Li Mo paralyzed on the rocking chair in a posture of Ge You lying, feeling boring and unlovable.
This is how the people are. When something happens, I think that I don't want to do anything. I have to rest! I felt itchy again in my free days.
The sales of Pytec Barrett's pills went well, the customers responded well, and they didn't break their ideas with long-term eyes.
Li Mo finally gave up and tried one,
从 From Jessica Jones's house the next day,
I walked out,
With a red face ...
科尔 Phil Coulson took a batch of pills from him, sent another batch of medicinal materials, transferred $ 100,000, and hurried away, saying that there was something on the border.
Tony Stark made a phone call and Li Moben wanted to ask him to get two of the latest gaming equipment at the Blizzard show. But the two started talking about each other while talking on the phone, and finally had an argument. But looking at the bitch's excitement at that time may have combined new elements.
Originally planned to drive to Yellowstone to play, but this weather ...
In the shop, Lucas Jr. is still holding this law book to study. This kid is even more Chinese than Chinese. George sat there earnestly watching TV, but from time to time looked at Li Mo with a look of anticipation.
This guy always complains that people are dead and come up with tasks. But how can Li Mo have any ghost task for him?
莫 Li Mo touched his nose and suddenly asked curiously: "George, I read your resume, why did you go to the SHIELD regardless of the retention of the troops?"
George was a little embarrassed and said with a memory: "I can be said to be a survivor of a supernatural event. When I was young, I lived in Indiana. At that time, four classmates accidentally opened the door to a different space ... Therefore, I grew up Fascinated by such incidents. Furthermore, the predecessor of SHIELD was where the captain had stayed. "
Looking at George's obsession and worship, Li Mo shook his head and was a fan of the US team. No wonder Coulson recruited this guy in.
At this time, little Lucas received a call. After listening to it, his expression was unhappy, and he said to Li Mo helplessly, "Boss, I was kicked out, and I wanted to borrow from you before renting a new house. Stay for a while. "
Li Mo is a little strange, "Has been kicked out? What's going on?"
Little Lucas shook his head and said, "The apartment building I rented heard that the developer wanted to renovate. God knows what can be built in that ghost place?"
"Because the place was old and the rent was cheap, most of the residents signed a long-term contract. Now the developers want to break the contract. It doesn't matter to us young people and we get a small compensation. But some lonely elderly people don't want to move out of there. Someone has been harassed from time to time because of water and power outages, but it has been a miserable life. However, I heard that a new law firm called Nelson Murdoch in Hell's Kitchen is willing to help them sue developers. "
George was a little strange. "Normal business behavior? Why not move?"
卢 Lucas Jr. rolled his eyes in contempt. Where did the good-born baby who grew up in the white middle-class family know the hardships of the people at the bottom.
Li Mo explained, "These elderly people do not have the ability to work or earn any income and live on relief money. They can still have a home at the previous rent. If they move out, they will be displaced and become homeless even if they receive compensation."
George was a little stunned, "How can this be? Can I help them do something?"
Little Lucas shook his head expressionlessly, "You can't do anything! Because the entire film will be demolished there, there will be more than 500 lonely elderly people. Most of them were drug addicts when they were young, and they were sick. This is not A burden that ordinary people can bear. "
Li Mo saw that both of them were a little depressed, and comforted him: "Let's look at the results of the law firm's prosecution. Oh yes, I suddenly thought that eating hot pot in this weather is a good idea ..."
George watched Li Mo be busy preparing the whole dish outside, and some moved and said little Lucas, "The sir is so nice, in order to comfort us to personally cook and cook."
卢 Little Lucas pouted his lips, "Of course the boss is good, but you will eat less of the dishes he likes. Also, how about your alcohol?"
Uh ...
After lunch, George dragged little Lucas away. They said they were going out, but Li Mo couldn't guess what they were going to do.
George, as an agent of the SHIELD black-hearted organization, is really unqualified. It is even called a wonderful work.
Sorry,
I can see this kind of enthusiastic guy,
I'm always in a good mood.
Li Moxian smoked a cigarette, it is not suitable to exercise after meals! Lying on a rocking chair and shaking, I fell asleep and snored ...
Jingle bell ... jingle bell
After a while, the phone ringing suddenly awakened Li Mo in his sleep. Stumbled open the phone and looked at it, no caller ID. Looking around, it turned out to be a wired telephone on the counter.
居 I still have a landline phone in my shop?
I do not know how!
Li Mo stood up and stretched, and answered the phone weakly.
"Hello, is this Li's Crafts Store?" A girl's voice came across, sounding tender and sweet.
"Well, who are you?"
"This is Leo Lieberman, when can you come back?"
"Come here? What are you doing?" Li Mo was a little strange.
"Don't you already take orders online?"
"Online order? Wait a minute ..." Li Mo held the microphone and called Lucas with a cell phone. "Little Lucas, what's going on with this TM? How can we have orders online?"
After explaining a pass, Li Mo knew that Little Lucas had registered an online shop with Li's Crafts Shop in order to expand his business. He had already spoken to Li Mo at that time, but Li Mo just called a haha ​​and said to play casually.
The online store was also in a slump, and only received the first business yesterday: a little girl's mother likes Chinese culture, this girl decided to give her a birthday surprise and needed Li Mo. They took a crafts vase as a birthday gift, and some Chinese knots and ribbons helped arrange the birthday party.
卢 Lucas Jr. had prepared something, but drank some wine, and was dragged away by George to forget about it.
This little Lucas, can really find something!
Li Mo picked up the handset and said in a gentle tone as much as possible: "Sorry little girl, we are going to close down, can you find another one?"
The little the other side was anxious, and she was already sobbing. "What should I do? I have to arrange it before my mother is off work. It's too late to find a family! My mother takes care of us alone, I just want She's happy ... "
What a filial little girl,
He is really a little angel.
Li Mo relented, "Okok, don't worry, I'll go there."
I put down the phone, Li Mo hurriedly packed up, and drove out of the Mustang.
Li Mo is sympathetic, but he prefers children. He also sympathized with the old men in the kitchen, but only expressed that he had to think about what he really wanted to do. But children are different, especially cute and cute children. If they are miserable, they will cry.
他 In his thoughts, except for some diseases and accidents, many of the misfortunes of adults are caused by their wrong choices. Either because of greed, or because of cowardice, or because of ignorance, or because of indulgence.
无论 But for whatever reason, even when you are alone, you must clenched your fists and choose to fight against fate.
Even if you fail like a clown, you must say fkyou fiercely to the fate! The beating should also straighten the waist.
But children are different. The younger the more they lack the ability to fight, they can only passively welcome the kindness and cruelty of this world ...
The Queen.
The law and order situation here is much better than Hell's Kitchen, but it is also divided into places.
Xiao Xiaolei's home is located in a middle-class community, a small independent building with a lawn in front of it. Residents here generally have a stable income, and homeless people and robbers are rarely seen at night.
At this moment, there was a drizzle in the sky, Li Mo got out of the car without umbrella, and walked to the door with the box.
After ringing the doorbell, he watched for a while. A little white girl, about seven or eight years old, with some fat plump eyes, opened the door.
"Is it Leo? My name is Li Mo and I am the owner of Li's Crafts Store." Li Mo tried to put on a kind smile.
"Thank God, you are finally here! Mom will be back in half an hour" Leo cheered, and led Li Mo into the room.
莫 Li Mo roughly looked after entering the door. It has a common American decoration style, and the living room is neat and orderly. You can see the intention of the hostess.
Put the box on the table, Li Mo took out the pieces from it, "Lovely Miss Leo ~ EbookFREE.me ~ This is your gift of choice, a beautiful blue and white vase, we have given it Packed. There are also some beautiful ribbons and Chinese knots here, and I think your mother will love them. "
Xi Leiou took things to watch one by one, and his eyes were full of excitement.
"Okay, let's start decorating!" Li Mo looked at the structure of the room, and already had a plan in his heart, clapped his hands and said loudly.
I pulled up the ribbon, hung the Chinese knot, and inflated the balloons one by one ... After a while, the family was full of a festive atmosphere.
Li Mo saw a photo frame of a bearded man when he hit the balloon, and asked casually, "Leo, what about your father?"
"My father is dead." Leo's excited eyes suddenly dimmed.
"Ah, I'm sorry!" Li Mo was a little embarrassed and quickly shifted the topic. "Right, did you order a birthday cake?"
"I did it myself, and it was taught in a school manual class. I have used up my pocket money for gifts, but I think my mother will like it." Leo said proudly.
"What a wonderful little girl!" Li Mobi gave a big finger, exaggerated expression. Then I patted my head again. "By the way, I forgot to tell you, as the 100th customer of our online shop, your fee is free this time, and I will refund the fee to you later."
真的 "Really? This is really wonderful news!" Leiou gave Li Mo an excited excitement.
在 At this moment, a beautiful blonde came in the door after a while of unlocking. Seeing the situation in front of her, she exclaimed, "My God, who are you! Leo come quickly!"
Is this the girl's mother?
Li Mo is a little embarrassed,
Uh ...
"I said I didn't blame Uncle Do you believe it?"
