Act Twenty-Eight: The Shoe Shiner's Mother's Choice

New Haven Harbour is as busy as ever.

No matter how many people are, the dock workers look red and red in the dark.

Heavy hardware equipment boarded the ship from here, and the distance was carried to Asia, and the nearest was only a hundred miles.

The lighthouse standing in the distance is as eye-catching as the seabirds circling and flying, sprinkling piles of wet feces.

The waves slammed the reefs and sent the fish to the beach to the beach to get stranded.

This scene that looks exactly like the past has changed a little today.

A young student wearing a Yale University uniform, boarded a passenger ship with a canvas bag hanging around his waist.

The passenger ship was noisy and all kinds of gambling sounds were heard. The young man finally occupied an empty table and spread the things in his waist pocket on the table.

"What is this?" asked a curious lady.

The young man replied gentlemanly, "It's called Monopoly, this lovely lady, do you want to play with it?"

The gentle and gentleman Yale student was Williams who decided to follow Doug that night.

Just as Williams was promoting "Monopoly" to the lady with a few playful freckles hanging on her nose, Doug happened to step into the police station.

"Please, be fine, let me see my son, just look at it, just look!" A woman who sounded not old, filled Doug's ears.

The police at the door were unmoved and refused the woman's request with silence.

He was so annoyed that he saw Doug, and his face suddenly filled with charming flowers, "Your Excellency, you are here!"

"Yeah, I'm here. What's going on with this woman?" Doug asked.

"This woman wants to see your follower. You also know that without your permission, I will not be able to contact him. I will drive her away!"

The policeman who did not remember his name bent slightly, curled up his magnificent body, and said in Doug's ear.

After saying that, he stood up, as if he was really going to drive the woman away.

"Wait, you don't let her see you, it's because she didn't give you money! Take it to buy some wine and let me talk to her." Doug took out some bank vouchers from his wallet, but he didn't look at the value, so he threw them directly to the police.

The policeman waved his hands like a chimpanzee and held all the banknotes scattered in the air in his hands.

"Talk slowly." The policeman who looked at Qian as smiling as a child, but his mind was full of adults' thoughts, said with a giggle.

The woman left behind in the sky raised her head and looked at Doug who was quietly taller than her, and asked directly, "Are you Lark's employer?"

"Are you talking about the little shoe shiner? Is his name Lark?" Doug asked back, "If you're talking about him, I'm indeed his employer."

"It's...it's him...can you let him out? I...I..." the woman said with a stuttering look.

"Don't worry, say it slowly." Doug looked around, and there was no place to drink water, otherwise he would have planned to bring the lady a glass of water to calm down.

The woman said, "I have found out clearly. They said that my son was suspected of killing people. But... but... where did he kill? He refused to let him kill a stranded fish. How could he kill people?

Sir, I think something must have been made wrong. Can you help him?"

Doug looked at the anxious little shoe shiner's mother and comforted, "Don't worry, the police and the judge will give him justice."

"Police? Can you count on the police? The police just said that as long as I give him money, he would ask me to see Lark, but he first collected ten cents, but later he took Yingyang and still refused to let me see his son!

The police here..."

She looked around and found no police officers around her. She lowered her voice and said, "It's so bad!"

Doug nodded in a slight way to confirm that the police here are really bad. It’s okay to collect money, but it’s wrong to collect money and not do anything.

The little shoe shiner's mother continued, "That...that's the money Lack just made!

It's you!

It's you!

That's what you rewarded Eagle Ocean to Lak!

Please save him!

He is still a child!”

The woman's voice was trembling, and her hopeful eyes locked Doug's cheek, as if she wanted to see something.

Doug sighed and said sadly, "Do you think I don't want it? Little shoe shiner... Little Lark is a good subordinate.

But... the law is the law! We must respect the law!"

Doug's face was filled with mourning clouds, condensed in the air.

The woman looked at Doug's sad face and suddenly became hysterical. She suddenly shouted, "It's you! It's you! It's you!

It was you who put Lark in jail.

No one called him Lark except me!

really!

You are going to frame my son!”

The little shoe shiner's mother wanted to come up and scratch Doug.

Doug avoided her attack, and the originally kind expression on his face faded away, leaving only a cold expression.

"Madam, don't talk nonsense." Doug shouted, "You think clearly where this is, I can get you caught at any time!

You are Irish, are you?

Do you have only one son in the little shoe shiner?

If he has siblings, think about it. Do you want them to become damn little shoe shiners too?

Become a little shoe shiner who was bullied by the Hacked (Harmony) Gang, beaten by the police, and earns a little money?

Think about it carefully, what is the way to change your life?

It's learning!

If, you are more rational, I think I can sponsor the rest of your children to study in better schools and become a superior person.

No one laughs at you because of your accent and your child's hair color.

You will live a comfortable and happy life in the future, and all you need is to make a choice.”

The woman was silent, she lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking.

A violent arc of thought burst into her mind.

Contradictory thoughts turned her mind into Lei Zhuo.

Her body was trembling and her brain was wailing.

She grabbed her hair in pain and looked like a lunatic.

The policeman from afar came over to inquire, and Doug waved his hand and did not let him get close.

He quietly waited for the choice of the little shoe shiner's mother.

Enjoy this complex choice mixed with human nature.

"I...I want to change the future. I choose to exchange Lark's present... for the future of other children!"

"A wise choice!" Doug said, touching the increasingly rounded civilization stick gem, "I think you can go and see the little shoe shine now... no...Luck.

Cherish the time and cherish the present!

Time goes by and it is difficult to return again. Some things are lost, but they are never retrieved.

For example, your son.
