Chapter 47:
Not Helpful
Looking at Murong Lingran's clothes, Shitou knew that her family situation was probably not very good, so he quickly said: "Sister Ran, this can't be done. You can take it back and eat it yourself. You gave us a lot of money yesterday."

“There is an old man who comes to see us occasionally and gives us food. We really don’t need so much.”
The other children saw that Murong Lingran did not have any ill intentions towards them, and they felt less nervous. One of the older children whispered: "Yes... yes, sister doesn't have to give us so much."
Murong Lingran saw their eyes and looked at her own clothes. Knowing that they were also thinking about her, she smiled lightly and said: "Don't worry, I live at the foot of the mountain. These are all picked from the mountain without a single copper plate. It just takes a little effort.”
It’s no wonder that only a few children can live here. Although this courtyard is dilapidated and the roof is almost gone, it is still in the capital after all. If you spend a little money to clean it up, it is still a good place to live.
If someone wanted to take it, just a few children under ten years old would not be able to protect this place no matter what.
“Really?” Shitou asked suspiciously.
"Really."
Seeing that she didn't seem to be telling lies, Shitou and the other children immediately felt relieved and said in unison: "Thank you so much, sister Ran."
"Good."
Seeing that they believed her easily words, Murong Lingran laughed in her heart, children are so naive.
Shitou remembered the purpose of her coming here and said quickly: "Sister Ran, don't you want them to recognize your friends? Take out the portraits and let them see it."
"Yes, I would forgot about that business if you didn't mention it." After saying that, she reached into his sleeve pocket, actually took out three portraits from her space, and displayed them in front of them one by one, "Look at these three people. Have you seen them around?"
Shitou had never seen such a realistic portrait before. He stared at it carefully for several moments and shook his head.
The other children had completely lowered their guard against Murong Lingran. They looked closer and all shook their heads.

Murong Lingran had already guessed that this might be the result and sighed helplessly.
Seeing her disappointment, Shitou sighed inwardly and said: "Sister Ran, I'm sorry, we couldn't help. You should take these... these things back."
Although he has never read a book, he has heard that scholars say that no reward will be given without merit.
The other children's eyes immediately looked at the food on the ground with reluctance.
Murong Lingran saw that they had misunderstood and shook her head: "This is not a thank you gift, this is a meeting gift. It is given to you. There is no reason to take it back."
She thought it over for a while, and then she said: "But I have one more request. I hope you can help me."
Seeing that there was still a need for them, the children immediately said actively: "Sister Ran, just say it, we will definitely help if we can."
"It's still related to the people in the portrait. Now take a closer look at the people in the portrait. From now on, when you go out and see children who look like them and are eight, seven and five years old, help me pay attention. For the moment, just tell me when I come to see you in the future."
Sometimes it’s best for children to find someone, after all, few people will guard against them.
Shitou had guessed a little of what she was going to say, and nodded quickly when he heard the words, "Sister Ran, this is too simple. I will definitely pay attention to it for you when we walk around the streets in the future."
The other children also said: "Yes, we will definitely help sister Ran pay attention."
